Chapter 1049 - Chapter 533: The Swindler (2)

The floor is covered with a Western Regions carpet, woven with eighty-one lotus patterns using golden threads, with pearl-studded petals. On the east wall hangs the "Yao Platform Chess Game Painting". In the painting, an immortal queen in a mud gold robe holds jade chess pieces. Across it is a peacock screen from Nan Zhao's tribute, whose emerald feathers reflect the candlelight like rippling green waves. On the western table sits a gilded bronze incense burner, its lid cast in the shape of the Penglai Immortal Mountain, out of which smoke spirals like clouds encircling the peaks.
