Chapter 750
A boat floats on the water in the night, and although it's not yet the full moon of the fifteenth of August, the moonlight is already quite remarkable.
The boat is moored at the shore, both shores and the boat are brightly lit, complemented by the moonlight and melodious songs. As evening fell, guests who had received invitations began to arrive in an endless stream.
Some arrived by palanquin, some on horseback, some by boat... Those who received invitations were persons of certain status. The periphery was crowded with many people, mostly wanderers from the martial world who hadn't received invitations but wanted to join in the fun.
If they caught the eye of a passing lord, they might unexpectedly find themselves on a path to a royal appointment.
It is said that Baili Sheng reserved all the singing girls of Mantingfang. Seeing these charming ladies was a rare treat for ordinary folks, yet at Baili Sheng's command, they had no choice but to oblige.
