9 Chapter 009 - Attending the Emperor’s Banque

Time passes by quickly, in less than a week, it as going to be the Emperor's banquet.

Ba Yue's month of hard work has paid off. You can't even tell how she used to look anymore.

She had the perfect slender body with a very decent size of a chest, which she credits it to her fat for. She also has the perfect clear white skin, that thanks to the medicine for detoxing. You can finally see her real face without all these distractions and cover-ups!

Just the word heavenly beautiful cannot describe her. She's even more beautiful than those so-called 4 big beauty in Fu Country. Not only is she beautiful, but her progress in training martial arts and cultivation is also so unbelievable and super speedy!

She now trains along with her brothers, and she is not half as bad as them and she just started not too long ago! She surprises her father and brothers so much that they regret not making her train earlier! They have now considered her as the genius of the family! She's not an embarrassment to the family, she's the pride of the family!

Knock knock, sounds of knocking on the door can be heard.

"Come in," said Ba Yue.

Xi Xi came into the room and greets Ba Yue. "Young Miss, the master has invited the most famous tailor in town to make new clothes for the Emperor's banquet. The 2 young masters are getting their measurements taken right now. Master wants young miss to come out to get your measurements taken so the tailor can also make you new dresses."

Ever since the incident with the 2nd prince a month ago in town, Ba Yue hasn't seen anyone else but the people that live in the Ba Family only.

"Okay, I understand. I'll be there soon." Says Ba Yue as she puts down the book that was on her hand.

She then went to the room where the tailor is. The tailor was just finish taking Ba Jing's measurements when she saw Ba Yue walk in and was stunned by her looks!

She has been making clothes for many years and has seen the 4 big beauties of this country. But they can't even be compared to her at all!

Ba Jing was about to call Ba Yue when he suddenly got a warning look from her to not say a word. He immediately understands that she didn't want others to know who she is yet.

He then turns to the tailor and said, " she's going to the banquet too, have her measurements taken and make a dress for her. Also, make a few extra sets of normal everyday clothes for her too."

The tailor didn't ask anything and just answers yes. Even though she's a very famous tailor, but she is still however just a tailor.

She can't ask these young master and young miss who this beautiful woman is. It's not her place to do so. So she quickly took her measurements and left.

"Little Yue, why didn't you want others to know who you are? If they know how much you have changed, they would be so surprised!" Said Ba Jing.

"I just want to give them an even bigger surprise on the emperor's banquet. Don't you think it will be interesting to see how their face will look when they see me?" said Ba Yue with a smile on her face.

" I get it now, that would be interesting!" Says Ba Jing with a little evil smile on his face. Yes, they should definitely give those people a surprise they won't forget!

Finally, it was the day of the banquet and the new clothes have been delivered to the Ba Residence.

Ba Yue was in her room when Xi Xi had brought the new clothes into her room. There's a stunningly beautiful purple dress with pearls and gems hand sewed into the dress. It makes the dress look very expensive and elegant without making the dress look tacky like how the old Ba Yue's clothes were.

There was also 3 more sets of everyday day clothing along the dress. Those 3 sets of clothes were also made with high-quality materials. It didn't have all those pearls and gems like the purple dress but is as pretty as the purple dress.

Ba Yue puts the purple dress on and it was perfect! The color and style match her perfectly!

What Ba Yue didn't know was that the tailor had used the highest quality of materials to make this dress for her.

She knew Ba Yue will be going to the emperor's banquet. She wanted Ba Yue to wear the dress she made to go there. With Ba Yue's beauty, all eyes are going to be on her! After the banquet, she could tell others that she made her dress, so it's like free advertisement for her business!

After getting dressed, Ba Yue called the maids over to help her with her hair and makeup.

" Young miss, you are so beautiful today!" Said one of the maids that's doing her hair.

"Yes, our young miss has become so beautiful, young master Li is not going to be able to take his eyes off you. That 3rd young miss from the Tang family can't be compared to our young miss." Said another maid that's working on her makeup.

" I don't want to hear about Like Dong Man again! I have nothing to do with him in the past and will never have anything to do with him in the future!" Said Ba Yue with a slightly annoyed face.

She knows the maid meant well since the only people that the old Ba Yue can talk to was her maids. And the maids knew the old Ba Yue likes Like Dong Man and have heard rumors around town.

"Yes, we understand, young miss," said the maids.

"If you all have finished, we have to get going. Father and brothers are waiting for me outside."

Soon, Ba Yue came walking to the front door of the Ba Residence. Everyone knew the young miss has changed a lot, but they never expect to look so stunningly beautiful! So beautiful that she can be compared to the goddess!

All the maids, servants and the guards turn their head to look at their young miss. Even her father and brothers were speechless!

When Madame Ba was still alive, she was known as the most beautiful woman of the century with unparalleled talent and skills. No one can't imagine the old Ba Yue was Madame Ba's daughter.

But now, looking at Ba Yue, she looks 60% similar to her mother and just more beautiful!

"Let's go father and older brothers, we don't want to keep others waiting now, do we?" Said Ba Yue with a very confident look, a look that will never show up on the old Ba Yue's before.

They got on a very luxury horse carriage with the family name "BA" on the side.

(Please note: The last name Ba '霸' means to dominate, hegemony, etc in Chinese.)

Ba Yue and her family were happily chatting inside the carriage when suddenly she took out a silk handkerchief and put it around her face., showing only her eyes.

When the Master Ba, Ba Zi, and Ba Jing saw her do that, they all have a question mark on their head.

"Little Yue, didn't you said you will show your new self to others today? Why are you covering your face?" ask Ba Jing.

"I just don't want them to see me yet until the very last minute when I can't hide anymore. They will try to guess who I am coming with you all. But they will never expect me to be Ba Yue, it will be more fun that way."

"Ah Yue, when we get there, the male and female guest will be seated separately. Are you going to be okay by yourself?", asked Ba Shao Ten with worries in his eyes.

"Father, I believe Little Yue will be fine. I trust that she can take care of herself. And Little Yue, if anything happens or you need help, you have to come over and look for us, okay?" Said Ba Zi with a gentle caring voice and an expressionless face.

"Don't worry, I can take care of myself. But Father and Brothers, don't let your tongue slip and let others know who I am. I want to reveal my face by myself when it's time."

"We'll definitely not tell!" said Ba Jing with his smiling face.

Soon, the horse carriage has arrived at the gate of the palace. After showing the invitation, the horse carriage was allowed to go in. Once inside, they all got off the horse carriage. They were lead by the palace maids to their tables. One palace maid leads the Ba Shao Ten and his sons to the male section of the banquet, while another palace maid leads Ba Yue to the female section.
