All Heavens: From Joy of Life to The Great Feng Night Watchman

Yiyinju is a song and dance hall, specializing in chess and singing.

The singer Yaoqin began to sing, and the women who played instruments and sang along all wore smiles.

That smile is very professional; it must have been rehearsed for a long time!

Especially after learning that they would be performing at Prince Yong's Mansion, they trained diligently for several months!

However, one of the women in red playing the piano had a particularly fake smile!

This woman is Xiao Sangwen, with fair skin, beautiful features, bright eyes, and white teeth.

Her bright eyes held a captivating allure; she was practically a beauty destined to bring ruin to a nation.

Her smile was fake because she had seen something astonishing.

Childhood playmates Qingwen and Xiren became Prince Yong's personal maids, their rise to power was meteoric!

Xi Ren and Qing Wen also saw her, but neither of them made any statement.

However, after she finished singing, Qingwen intentionally or unintentionally touched the fake Prince Yong with the hilt of her sword.

This was the power Li Chang'an granted to Xiren and Qingwen—to bestow rewards upon whomever he pleased.

The fake Prince Yong coughed twice and said, "Well sung, I'll give you a song."

After he finished speaking, Qingwen handed a small booklet to Yaoqin.

Yaoqin's hand trembled violently as she took the booklet!

Prince Yong invited more than a dozen courtesans, and she was the first to receive the reward!

Sang Wen would never know that what truly brought Yi Yin Ju the reward was not the most beautiful courtesan, but rather her very existence.

Xi Ren and Qing Wen are ostensibly Li Chang'an's maids, but in reality, they are two of the Six Sword Slaves.

Without Li Chang'an's permission, they could no longer develop a deeper relationship with Sang Wen.

All the courtesans in Kyoto practiced their singing day and night, hoping for a reward from Prince Yong.

Because Prince Yong had already said that his reward would be a newly composed poem.

With Prince Yong's new words, any courtesan or brothel can be popular for years!

Yaoqin knelt on the ground, trembling, and kowtowed three times to the fake Prince Yong!

"This humble servant thanks Your Highness Prince Yong for your gracious reward!"

Those three kowtows were absolutely deserved!

The booklet in her hand was written in Li Chang'an's slender gold calligraphy style, which was very valuable in itself!

Not to mention that the lyrics Li Chang'an copied were the graceful lyrics of "Liu Sanbian" from his previous life, which would definitely become a hit.

The fake Prince Yong raised one hand slightly and said, "Alright, sing these words now."

Then, a poignant new song slowly began to play.

"Thin quilt and small pillow in the cool weather, I suddenly feel the pangs of parting... I can't sleep, the night feels like a year..."

"A thousand thoughts, many ways of comforting... It is my heart that is bound to you, and I have shed a thousand tears for you."

……

At this time, Li Chang'an was in the home of a wealthy merchant in the suburbs, where the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven) held its semi-annual gathering.

The Nine Fiends of Luo Wang will return from all over the country to report on the development of Luo Wang together with the Book Fiend in the capital.

Li Chang'an sat in the main seat and first glanced at everyone, all of whom were die-hard loyalists.

It seems that the emotional value of a die-hard loyalist won't decrease.

"The experts you sent have won over the hearts of the people very well, and I am very satisfied!"

Upon hearing Li Chang'an's affirmation, the Ten Fiends of Luo Wang shouted in unison, "We are willing to die for Your Highness!"

Li Chang'an continued, "Since you've come from afar, we can't stay too long. Tell us about the developments over the past six months!"

Hua Xiong was originally a palace maid who later opened a brothel in Hangzhou.

"Your Highness, I have recruited three core members and thirty peripheral personnel in Hangzhou!"

Hua Xiong then reported, "Your Highness, I have developed five core members and sixty peripheral personnel in Xiliang Road!"

After each of them finished speaking, they also reported on major events that had occurred in the area.

The original Luo Wang was an assassin organization, but now Li Chang'an's Luo Wang consists entirely of secret agents who gather intelligence.

After listening to these people, Zhao Gao said, "Your Highness, there are currently 43 core members of the Luo Wang organization and 450 peripheral members."

Li Chang'an nodded. He knew that this number was still too small, far from being a nationwide intelligence organization.

Zhao Gao continued, "Your Highness, the Surveillance Bureau and the Embroidered Uniform Guard have branches in various places, so we are very careful in our actions."

"Moreover, the Ten Fiends' ability to discover talent cannot compare to Your Highness's, and their spies' abilities are probably not necessarily stronger either."

Li Chang'an pondered for a moment, then said to everyone, "You did a good job. Be cautious in everything, and it's better to have nothing than something bad."

"In two years, when I am a little older, I will travel the world myself."

"At that time, I will help you identify talented people and provide you with more financial support."

Upon hearing this, the ten villains simultaneously replied, "Your subordinates obey!"

These people all possessed strength at the sixth or seventh rank, and apart from the wine, they all quickly dispersed.

Li Chang'an said, "You're drunk, what else do you want?"

The drunkard said, "His Highness previously said that if there are any exceptionally rare talents, they must be brought to the capital."

"My wine shop had been losing money for years, but thanks to Mr. Shen's help in managing it, it turned a profit in just two months!"

"I have brought Mr. Shen here today; he should have great business acumen!"

Li Chang'an smiled faintly, "Shen Wansan has arrived!"

Not long after, Shen Wansan appeared before Li Chang'an and Zhao Gao.

Name: Shen Fu (Shen Wansan)

Age: 30 years old

Realm: None

Talents: Business acumen (Rank 9), Management (Rank 9), Social Skills (Rank 9)

Abilities: Business acumen (Rank 9), Management (Rank 9), Social Skills (Rank 9), Mental Arithmetic (Rank 6)

Emotional level: 100 (Die-hard fan)

This is Shen Wansan in his prime, a money-making machine absolutely loyal to Li Chang'an!

"Your subordinate, Shen Wansan, swears to follow Your Highness to the death!"

Those summoned by the system no longer need to have their loyalty tested; they can be directly entrusted with important tasks.

"Shen Wansan, I hereby give you my seal. Go back to Jiangnan and go to Taiping Bank to withdraw your money."

"Two million taels of capital, you can use it however you like!"

Upon hearing the amount, Shen Wansan's eyes lit up, his expression no different from Fan Sizhe's when he saw money!

"Thank you for your trust, Your Highness! I will certainly not fail in my mission!"

When Li Chang'an returned from outside the city, the song performed at the Prince Yong's residence had just finished.

Prince Yong's personal maid called out to Sang Wen, the woman playing the zither.

P.S.: My new book is out! Thank you all for your support! Please add it to your favorites! Please keep reading! Please invest in it! Please vote for it!

In front of everyone, Xi Ren and Qing Wen stopped Sang Wen.

Although the two women recognized Sang Wen, they did not act particularly enthusiastically.

"Sang Wen, it's been a long time. It's so great to see you today."

"You must work hard, and perhaps one day you will also receive His Highness's favor."

"You play the piano very well, and the sound is beautiful. You have a lot of potential!"

Sang Wen's beauty was no less than that of Xi Ren and Qing Wen, and her voice was indeed very pleasant.

She found it rather strange; although Xiren and Qingwen's gazes were warm, their words were polite and distant, as if keeping her at arm's length.

Although the beautiful Sang Wen was naive, she was also very perceptive and knew she couldn't point it out.

Sang Wen curtsied and said politely, "Thank you both, elder sisters. I will definitely do my best!"

Xi Ren said considerately, "If you could be like Yao Qin and receive a favor from the prince, you would be set for life."

"Then you won't have to sell your songs anymore, and you can live however you want."

Sang Wen felt a warmth in her heart; this was exactly their shared childhood wish: to escape the world of prostitution.
