~8 min read 1,412 words

After Lady Han appeared, she pushed the atmosphere of the banquet to a climax.

Everyone was shouting in competition.

Lady Han was also full of charm, constantly posing and dancing gracefully.

With her dance, those present became even more heated.

Some with lower cultivation levels could not help but leave their seats and sway along.

Ogedei, sitting on the imperial throne, was even more dizzy with infatuation.

He only lamented why such a stunner had to be the Prince of Prince Ruyang's beloved concubine.

His eyes were filled with unbridled greed.

When the song ended, the music stopped abruptly, and the dance ceased as well.

Lady Han was once again surrounded by those women with Northern flair.

This made countless ministers feel a sense of loss.

Those with poor self-control even said in public,

"Lady Han, Lady Han, why have you stopped dancing? How can you stop?"

"Come out and dance quickly! I haven't seen enough."

"Presumptuous!"

Ogedei was also one of those who felt unsatisfied, but at this moment, he deliberately scolded,

"You bastards, this is the grace of the Prince of Prince Ruyang; how can you be so insatiable?"

"Guards, take these disgraceful things away immediately."

Aodu immediately directed the Kheshig guards to drag the ministers who were so bewitched they hadn't come to their senses out of the plaza.

Seeing those with poor self-control being dragged out, the others finally came to their senses.

Ogedei then said to the Prince of Prince Ruyang in a gentle and pleasant tone,

"I originally thought that the singing and dancing in this world were nothing more than this, and none could escape my discerning eyes."

"Who would have thought that seeing the singing and dancing of the Prince of Prince Ruyang's Mansion today, I would realize I was a frog at the bottom of a well!"

"Indeed! Having seen the singing and dancing of the Prince of Prince Ruyang's Mansion once, I fear I will never want to watch other singing and dancing again."

Aodu quickly added at this moment.

How could Yelu Yelu Chucai not see that this pair of ruler and subject was preparing to set a trap for the Prince of Prince Ruyang?

Just as he wanted to speak up to warn the Prince of Prince Ruyang, the old man said,

"The Great Khan is joking; the singing and dancing of the Northern lands are merely rustic works, how can they be mentioned in the same breath as the magnificent dances of the Imperial Court."

"The Prince of Prince Ruyang is too modest."

Aodu, seeing the Prince of Prince Ruyang take the bait, immediately said,

"Not to mention anything else, just the Lady Han, who was like the moon surrounded by stars, her dance alone surpasses that of thousands upon thousands of people."

"Great Khan, what do you say?"

"Exactly! Lady Han's dance should only exist in heaven; how often can one hear it in the human world."

Ogedei also cooperated, looking as if he were savoring the memory endlessly.

"Lady Han's dance is indeed incomparable."

If it were anything else, the Prince of Prince Ruyang might argue a little, but when it came to Lady Han, he also looked self-satisfied.

"What a pity! After today, I will never be able to see Lady Han's dance again."

Ogedei suddenly began to cry in public, looking heartbroken.

Aodu was exactly the same, feeling a sense of shared sorrow.

Yelu Yelu Chucai, seeing the ugly behavior of the ruler and subject, really wanted to turn around and leave.

But because he was the Grand Preceptor, the head of all officials, the Chancellor, no matter how unwilling he was, he could only stay.

"Since the Great Khan likes Lady Han's dance so much, this old subject is willing to offer Lady Han to the Great Khan."

Just as Ogedei and Aodu's performance became more and more intense, the Prince of Prince Ruyang suddenly said something shocking.

"What? Old Chahan, are your words true?"

The Prince of Prince Ruyang's words shocked all the high-level officials of the Great Yuan present.

Even Ogedei, who had been calculating so carefully, was shocked and incredulous.

After all, he and Aodu had been acting for so long, at most calculating that the Prince of Prince Ruyang would let Lady Han perform one or two more times.

Then he would show reluctance, wanting to keep Lady Han in the Imperial Court overnight to observe more.

At that time, the Prince of Prince Ruyang would have no choice but to comply, and he would then take Lady Han into his arms.

Who would have thought the Prince of Prince Ruyang would be so sensible, just a bit of crying and pouring out his heart, and he would be provoked into offering Lady Han?

"I dare not speak empty words before the ruler."

The Prince of Prince Ruyang said, cupping his hands,

"Since the Great Khan values Lady Han so much, how could Old Chahan dare to hide her?"

"I only hope that after the Great Khan accepts Lady Han, he will treat her well, and Old Chahan will be satisfied."

Countless people had deduced that before Lady Han was on the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers Ranking, she was the Prince of Prince Ruyang's favorite.

After she was on the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers Ranking and her abilities were further enhanced, she became the Prince of Prince Ruyang's reverse scale.

Who would have thought the Prince of Prince Ruyang would tear off his reverse scale and really prepare to offer her to Ogedei.

Even though Ogedei had thought for a long time and calculated countless arguments,

at this moment, with joy falling from the sky, he was stunned for a long time.

Seeing the Prince of Prince Ruyang's pained yet solemn expression, Ogedei finally believed his words.

He walked down from the imperial throne quickly, came to the Prince of Prince Ruyang's side, and helped him up.

"I only know today that the Prince of Prince Ruyang's loyalty is such!"

"Aodu, Aodu, quickly go find the Grand Preceptor to draft an edict, promoting Old Chahan to the Northern King, for generations of descendants, to forever guard the Northern Frontier."

The Prince of Prince Ruyang's title was already an extraordinary rank.

Compared to Mukhali's King of Lu, it was truly on par.

Now, in his excitement, the Northern King title Ogedei conferred was even above the Prince of Prince Ruyang and the King of Lu.

Coupled with the promise of generations of descendants forever guarding the Northern Frontier, it was tantamount to making the Northern King's lineage a state within a state.

The weight of the reward was truly shocking.

Aodu heard this, both shocked and envious, standing in place for a long time, not knowing what to do.

Yelu Yelu Chucai heard this reward and also sighed endlessly.

This new Great Khan of his, although his methods were a bit despicable, as long as one went along with him, he was truly generous!

But was a Northern King title really worth the loss of Lady Han?

The Prince of Prince Ruyang, no, Northern King Old Chahan, heard this and immediately took his son Wang Gan Baobao to kneel and thank him again.

Then he gave a light shout to the troupe of songstresses behind him,

"Lady Han, why don't you come and pay your respects to the Great Khan."

Following his command, the songstresses parted, once again revealing Lady Han's peerless figure and appearance.

As soon as she appeared, countless people present fell into infatuation.

Following Old Chahan's instructions, Lady Han swayed like a willow in the breeze, her figure so delicate it could not bear a grasp, and came before Ogedei, bowing down,

"Little girl Lady Han, pays respects to the Great Khan."

"No need for formalities, no need for formalities."

Ogedei couldn't wait to rush forward and take Lady Han into his arms.

But out of regard for the dignity of a ruler, he just spoke with a lecherous look.

"Lady Han! From today on, you have no more ties with the old man, with my Prince's Mansion."

"From today on, you are the Great Khan's person, and you must not have any second thoughts."

Old Chahan said solemnly to Lady Han.

Lady Han heard Old Chahan transfer her to Ogedei in public and couldn't help but shed tears from her apricot eyes,

"Yes! The Prince's command, this little girl will remember."

"Alright, go." ===== CHAPTER 984 =====
