Fake Eunuch: Discovering the Emperor is a Woman!-Chapter 185 - 183 Launch a Sneak Attack!

The countertops here were not made of just anything, but specifically used glazed plates.

Following Lin Yi’s instructions to incorporate some metal wires into them, the group of craftsmen found themselves embarking on a new idea and brilliantly executed this operation.

They placed not just a few iron wires inside, but even crafted them into various intricate arrangements.

Some especially skilled craftsmen created exquisite patterns with them, and merged them with the glass, producing very fine glass plates in the process.

This was something Lin Yi had not anticipated; he hadn’t expected them to develop this technique so soon.

Honestly, it was somewhat surprising to Lin Yi too.

However, thinking about these people’s incredible craftsmanship, he felt somewhat relieved.

What these people lacked was not skill, but merely innovative thinking.

Further, within this store, everything genuinely dazzled the eyes.

Indeed, just as the literal meaning suggests, it really brightened everything up.

Because inside, everywhere was filled with shiny glass, no, it should now be referred to as glazed.

A variety of glazed ornaments were endless.

Especially under Lin Yi’s directive, a few candles were placed within the countertops, and these specially made candles, once lit, made the inside of the countertops incredibly sparkly and eye-catching.

Moreover, according to Lin Yi’s demands, after placing these transparent glazed cups filled with water on the countertops, their hues became even more captivating.

In the 21st century, such a store might only arouse people’s curiosity to stroll around for a bit before leaving.

However, in this ancient society, this was undoubtedly an extremely luxurious shop.

Lin Yi briefly surveyed and estimated that just the glazed pieces currently in the shop, based on their current market value, were worth at least a million taels of gold.

This is no exaggeration at all, especially the huge full-body mirror hanging in the center of the store, which was even labeled as the treasure of the store.

Not only that, beneath that treasure of a mirror, there was a price tag displaying the cost as 999,999 taels of gold.

Such a price could definitely be considered astronomical.

Of course, Lin Yi never actually expected anyone to really buy that glazed mirror.

The real purpose of placing it was undoubtedly to attract attention.

After inspecting inside and out, Lin Yi found nothing inappropriate and nodded his head very satisfied.

With its current layout and decoration, it thoroughly matched a top-tier luxury store of modern times.

He believed that once the store opened, it would definitely become a place desired by the elites.

After the inspection, Lin Yi then directly returned to the Imperial Palace.

Of course, this time back he wasn’t visiting just to see the little Emperor, but also his beloved little ones.

He also needed to assist the Emperor with some efforts.

To meet his niece, the current Empress.

It was really unavoidable, after all, he and the Empress’s father were as close as brothers, hence calling her niece wasn’t a stretch at all.

Of course, besides this, Lin Yi also had a very important task to carry out.

This matter was regarding the opening of the store in three days.

The details about comparing Martial Arts and sparring 300 rounds with his niece afterward didn’t need to be elaborated.

Even though the Empress willingly blindfolded herself to fight Lin Yi, the intensity was self-evident.

In their exchanges, it was truly a fierce battle.

Especially at the end, when Lin Yi was surprisingly suppressed by the Empress and couldn’t lift his head.

This made him grit his teeth and with a miraculous burst of strength, he gathered all his power into one punch and swiftly launched it towards the Empress.

However, Empress’s martial arts skills are indeed profound.

It is no wonder since she has been practicing martial arts since she was young.

This allowed Lin Yi to be instantly subdued with softness overcoming hardness.

The punch, with great momentum and heavy force, was like hitting cotton and was easily neutralized, leading to Lin Yi’s utter defeat.

Nevertheless, Lin Yi was not convinced and secretly vowed to train harder and practice his martial arts diligently so that next time he could definitely conquer his precious niece.

And because of Lin Yi’s defeat, the little Emperor who was originally waiting to exchange a few moves with him, immediately looked displeased.

Of course, her displeasure was not with Lin Yi, but with the Empress.

You are a general’s daughter with naturally profound skills, but you should never have used full power in a friendly spar.

With Lin Yi’s current level, even though he has learned some martial arts, he is still no match for you.

How can I spar with him under these circumstances?

But these thoughts could neither be spoken nor shown in any way.

After Empress removed the blindfold, the little Emperor had no choice but to act as if nothing had happened.

After the sparring session, Lin Yi did not dare to stay longer in the Imperial Study Room, and immediately returned to his Rituals Office.

Upon seeing Lin Yi, Xiao Xiao immediately became excited.

After chatting for a while, Xiao Xiao’s face also turned slightly red:

"My Husband, it’s been a while since you’ve been back, I wonder if your martial arts skills have improved?

Why not let Xiao Xiao spar with you to see if you have neglected your martial arts during this time."

These words immediately made Lin Yi’s old face flush with embarrassment,

and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

This Xiao Xiao, doesn’t she know that I just had a spar in the Imperial Study Room with the Emperor and others?

These past days, I have been traveling overnight, so my body is naturally very tired, which allowed the Empress to barely win with one move.

Right now, my physical strength has certainly not recovered, so upon hearing Xiao Xiao’s words, Lin Yi truly did not dare to accept the challenge.

Thus, Lin Yi simply resorted to a trick, feigning to the east but attacking to the west, and collapsed on the bed, pretending to snore.

At this, Xiao Xiao, upon hearing the snoring sound, was momentarily stunned and also began to secretly wonder.

This does not seem like my husband’s personality.

Why does he suddenly not want to spar with me now?

However, she naturally would not let Lin Yi off the hook.

Although they couldn’t spar openly, Xiao Xiao’s mouth still curved into a mischievous smile.

Then, she also directly collapsed onto the bed and pretended to fall asleep.

However, just when Lin Yi thought she was also asleep.

Just when Lin Yi’s guard was down.

Suddenly, his eyes widened and he blurted out a few words:

"Damn, sneak attack! You can’t take a joke!"

...End of Chapter...
