265 THEY WERE DRUGGED

Tang Yanmei told him that she was once a prostitute in Wu Li, and she worked in a famous brothel in the city. Both she and the brothel were well-known, and even most of the people in the empire knew about the two.

At first, it was the brothel that was well-known in the empire because the prostitutes there were beautiful and had good talent in bed. Since the brothel was famous, it was often invited to attend some important events, and one time, the brothel was chosen to entertain guests during a noble’s birthday party in one of the cities within the empire.

At that time, Tang Yanmei was one of the prostitutes assigned to entertain the men attending the birthday party, and coincidentally, one of the guests was Bai Guowei, the Dong Lang Emperor.

It turned out that the noble who celebrated his birthday that night was a good friend of Bai Guowei’s, and that was why it was no wonder that the Emperor of the werewolf empire also took the time to attend the party held at night.

Back then, the Emperor of Dong Lang enjoyed the party very much, and he even got drunk with some nobles from the Wu Li Empire. The men weren’t the only ones who seemed so wasted at the party scene, and sitting with them were the pretty prostitutes from the city’s most famous brothel.

A man was hugged by two women, but Emperor Bai Guowei was different because he only stayed alone despite being very drunk at that time. Maybe the sexy women from the brothel didn’t dare to approach the Emperor because of his intimidating aura, and that was why the Emperor remained alone.

However, things finally changed when one of the prostitutes finally dared to approach the man, and the girl was none other than Tang Yanmei. Since the Emperor was already so drunk, he looked like he couldn’t think straight anymore, and he immediately embraced the girl who dared to approach him before taking her to one of the private rooms prepared at the banquet venue.

It was easy to guess what would happen if a man and woman were alone in a room in that kind of situation, right? Furthermore, Bai Guowei and Tang Yanmei were both drunk, so they could only follow their instinct wildly until morning greeted them.

“That’s what happened twenty-three years ago when your mother finally became pregnant with Bai Guowei’s child,” Wu Jinhai told a long story, and he finally stopped when as he intently stared at the brown-haired man sitting in front of him.

.....

Of course, it was Bai Chen who listened to the story, but he still didn’t say anything and just stared blankly at his intertwined fingers on his lap.

This was indeed the first time he had heard such a detailed story about how Tang Yanmei ended up pregnant with Bai Guowei’s child before finally giving birth to the real Bai Chen in this world.

From the book he found from Wenxue Pavilion, he only knew the story of how Tang Yanmei suddenly appeared at the Rongyao Imperial Palace during Bai Renshu’s fifth birthday celebration, and her appearance even caused the Empress to commit suicide in front of everyone present at the party.

Sure enough, Bai Chen knew that story, but he didn’t know anything about how Tang Yanmei ended up pregnant twenty-three years ago.

“So, it was my mother who seduced Emperor Bai Guowei, right?” The Werewolf Prince asked as he cast his gaze to look at Wu Jinhai once again. “I heard Emperor Bai Guowei was very loyal to his wife, but he ended up betraying his wife back then. But he was very drunk, and maybe my mother took advantage of the situation, right?”

Bai Chen’s heart was torn apart. On one hand, he somehow didn’t want to believe that Tang Yanmei had indeed seduced Bai Guowei all those years ago. Perhaps he had never met the woman in person, but from the strange memory that often appeared in his head, Tang Yanmei was a gentle and honest person, and that was why he didn’t want to believe that the woman was actually a scheming person who took advantage of the drunken Emperor.

He truly didn’t want to believe it, but from Wu Jinhai’s story, he couldn’t help but think that Tang Yanmei was the one who dared to seduce the Emperor when the other prostitutes chose to stay away from the man.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“I also held the same opinion as you when I just heard your mother’s story ten years ago,” Wu Jinhai replied. “She also kept saying that she wasn’t a good person, and I think she did make a mistake when she had the heart to destroy Emperor Bai Guowei’s family. Even the Empress killed herself because of what she had done, and it’s indeed easy to think that your mother is a sinner.”

Suddenly, Bai Chen realized something was odd after hearing Wu Jinhai’s statement. “You say that to me as if I was wrong for thinking my mother sinned twenty-three years ago. Am I misunderstanding? My mother didn’t really try to seduce the Emperor until she became pregnant with me?”

It was confusing because Wu Jinhai made such a statement as if he originally thought the same as Bai Chen at first, but then he changed his mind after knowing the truth of something.

A pair of blue eyes kept staring at Wu Jinhai’s brown beads as he waited for the man to respond. He knew that Wu Jinhai knew a lot about Tang Yanmei, and when he knew that he would not be able to gather more information about that woman who had died eight years ago from anyone else, he could only rely on Wu Jinhai now.

Fortunately, Wu Jinhai had no intention of evading his question as he immediately replied, “Your mother didn’t deliberately try to seduce Emperor Bai Guowei, Bai Chen. She was ordered by someone back then and was also drugged so she finally got the courage to approach the Emperor. You should also know that Emperor Bai Guowei was also drugged at that time.”
