Chapter 15 The Leopard Chamber (Part 2)

Although Ge Xiaoyao was disgusted by Consort Shu's lewd behavior, he was, after all, a man, and was excited by the erotic scene. If it weren't for the maidservants beside him, he would have already pinned Consort Shu down and imitated the leopard bed and the eel.

Seeing Consort Shu's question, he thought that the so-called human-dog chamber was nothing more than indulging in dog-like lust, and he no longer had the mind to look at it. He said, "It's getting late, and Your Highness still has to serve the King. If you go late, the King will be unhappy. Even if the human-dog chamber has its wonders, it's better to save it for next time!"

Consort Shu was also burning with desire and had nowhere to vent it. Seeing Ge Xiaoyao say this, she did not object and replied with lingering lust, "That's fine. Why don't we go to the Jitang Pavilion first? I still have a few true skills that the physician needs to instruct me on." "Point."

Ge Xiaoyao was about to take a step when he heard Consort Shu ask in a coquettish voice, "Didn't Physician Shi want to choose girls for medicine testing?"

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Thanks to Your Majesty's reminder, otherwise I would have forgotten about this matter. I observe that this girl and the girl in the *pool are both top-quality medicine testing slaves. I humbly request Your Majesty's permission to bring them all back to the Pleasure Pavilion!"

Consort Shu laughed lasciviously and said, "Since that's the case, then so be it, Physician!" She immediately ordered her maid to fish Yan Qiang out of the *pool and send her, along with the concubine on the leopard's bed, to the Pleasure Pavilion. In

the side hall of the Cold Palace, in Ge Xiaoyao's bedroom,

Consort Shu moaned lasciviously, her entire body like an octopus, sprawling on Ge Xiaoyao's body, venting her lust. The winding eels in the *pool, Consort Yan Qiang's painful expression, and the undignified, perverse moans of the concubine on the leopard's bed flashed through Ge Xiaoyao's mind, lingering for a long time.

"You shameless Yan Yun, you shameless Shu Fei! You're not just lewd, you're downright lewd and perverted!" Ge Xiaoyao cursed inwardly, his anger and lust burning within him. With a wild roar, he forcefully pinned Shu Fei down, thrusting rapidly until she reached the heavens.

Normally, Ge Xiaoyao should have stopped then, but his anger was still not extinguished, so he disregarded Shu Fei's satisfaction and continued his relentless assault. However, Shu Fei was inherently lustful; Ge Xiaoyao's fierce attacks did not annoy her, but instead ignoring her deep-seated desires. She bit a strand of her hair, ignoring the sweat pouring down her body, and frantically accepted Ge Xiaoyao's storm of passion, repeatedly calling out, "Master...faster...faster...faster..."

It took a full hour before Ge Xiaoyao, drenched in sweat, collapsed heavily onto the bed. Consort Shu let out a satisfied groan, panting, "Master, you were truly like a tiger today!" Ge Xiaoyao smiled wearily, scoffing, "That's nothing compared to Your Majesty's Leopard Chamber! I wonder if Your Majesty has personally tried that pool and the Leopard Bed?"

Consort Shu's alluring eyes flickered, and she smiled nonchalantly, "How could I possibly try such things? Those two sluts, however, will require more attention from Master... I've had quite a workout today, please don't let them die! They've overdone it; if they die in the Pleasure Pavilion..." "Then the doctor's crime is no small matter..."

Ge Xiaoyao suddenly remembered that the two concubines, who had been ravaged to the point of near death and whose fate was unknown, were still unattended in his clinic. He was about to get up when he was suddenly startled. He thought to himself, "Is this woman testing whether I am truly devoted to her?"

Thinking of this, he stretched on the bed and pulled Consort Shu into his arms again, grinning mischievously, "Whether they are dead or alive... as long as I serve my Lady Yanyun well, what crime do I have to fear?"

Consort Shu smiled sweetly, "That's more like it! As long as you are sincere to me, I guarantee you endless wealth and honor! If..." At this point, she changed the subject, "I should go serve the King in bed now, Master, you should rest well!" With that, she put on her clothes and went out.

Seeing Consort Shu leave, Ge Xiaoyao finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself, "That was close, that was close... I never expected this slut to be so cunning!" He naturally understood the meaning behind Consort Shu's unfinished sentence.

He knew very well that his position in the harem was still unstable, and the only person he could use was Consort Shu. Even if he couldn't control her for the time being, he absolutely couldn't offend her. Otherwise, even with the three extraordinary arts taught by Jiang Ziya—"walking through walls, invisibility, and immobilization"—he could only ensure his own safety, but his plan to "make King Zhou impotent and save Daji" would fail. In that case, he might as well be dead!

Thinking of this, he recalled the news he had received at the Star-Picking Tower today: the ancestral rule of the Shang palace was that the concubines of each palace would take turns serving the emperor. In other words, even if King Zhou favored a particular concubine, he could not violate the ancestral rule at night. Even if he could firmly control Consort Shu, it was unlikely that she could make King Zhou impotent without anyone noticing, relying solely on her Yang-absorbing skills.

Ge Xiaoyao had already made up his mind: first, he would appease Consort Shu, then cultivate other forces… If he could teach all the concubines in the palace the art of yang cultivation, King Zhou would be doomed!

Thinking of this, Ge Xiaoyao couldn't help but laugh heartily. After laughing, however, he noticed something amiss. At this moment, the two physicians serving Ge Xiaoyao had already been sent away by Consort Shu, and the side hall was silent. For some reason, even the painful groans of the two concubines from before could no longer be heard.

“Damn it!… I hope these two concubines don't actually die in my medical room, otherwise I'll be in deep trouble!” Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly straightened his clothes and rushed towards the medical room. However, when he pushed open the door, he was greatly surprised.

Chapter 16 Yin Body (Part 1)

Chaoge City, Imperial Palace, Cold Palace Side Hall, Bedchamber.

Ge Xiaoyao took one of his own robes and draped it over Yan Qiang before slowly saying, "I know you hate me, but I must say, I have no ill intentions towards you."

Yan Qiang sat on the edge of the bed, tightly wrapping the man's robe around her naked body, remaining silent.

Ge Xiaoyao continued, "Yan Qiang, can you tell me why you've recovered so quickly?"

It turned out that when Ge Xiaoyao pushed open the door to the medical room, he was met with a shocking scene: the woman who had been ravaged by the *water pool* was now completely healthy, wiping the body of the concubine on the male leopard's bed. Under her care, the concubine had fallen into a deep sleep!

Seeing Ge Xiaoyao enter, Yan Qiang snorted coldly, disregarding her shame, and stood in front of the concubine, glaring angrily at him.

Ge Xiaoyao carefully examined her body, confirming once again that she had indeed fully recovered from her previous injuries. His suspicions deepened, so he asked, "Are you alright?"

Perhaps sensing Ge Xiaoyao's lack of malice, Yan Qiang nodded and hummed in agreement.

Ge Xiaoyao took a jade bottle from the medical shelf, poured out two vermilion pills, crushed them, and pointed to the still unconscious concubine, saying, "Here, apply this to her wounds!"

Yan Qiang stared coldly at Ge Xiaoyao, refusing to take the medicine.

"Don't worry... I'm not using her to test medicine; this is for healing!" Ge Xiaoyao suddenly remembered mentioning using them for medicine testing and explained with a smile.

Only then did Yan Qiang take the medicine and slowly apply it to the concubine's wounds. The concubine groaned and fell asleep again, but her expression no longer showed the same pain.

Yan Qiang sighed softly and turned to Ge Xiaoyao, saying, "Thank you, Doctor!"

Ge Xiaoyao then said, "Let's talk over there, don't disturb her..." and led her to the bedroom on the left.

Yan Qiang's delicate eyebrows twitched slightly, revealing her inner unease, and she said hesitantly, "Doctor Ge, I don't hate you, I only hate that Yan Yun..."

Ge Xiaoyao said, "I already know that Consort Shu is licentious, but hating her now is useless. The key is how to get revenge..." Although he didn't know what grudge Yan Qiang had against Yan Yun, he was familiar with women's psychology, and at this time, "provocation" was often much more effective than "persuasion."

Hearing this, Yan Qiang was indeed moved, a glint of light flashing in her beautiful eyes, and she said with a hint of doubt, "Doctor, aren't you one of Yan Yun's people?"

Ge Xiaoyao shook his head and laughed, "I, Ge Xiaoyao, entered the palace as a commoner. I do not seek wealth or power, nor do I desire influence over the court. Women are of no use to me, so how could I be associated with Consort Shu!"

Yan Qiang said, "Then in the Leopard Chamber..."

"Haha!" Ge Xiaoyao sneered, "That was merely Yan Yun trying to curry favor with me! If Your Majesty trusts me, Ge Xiaoyao, I will surely avenge Your Majesty!"

Yan Qiang pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly, her beautiful eyes fixed on Ge Xiaoyao, "Why should I trust you?"

Ge Xiaoyao said, "Your Majesty, please allow me to take your pulse!"

Yan Qiang hesitated for a moment, then gently raised her arm, allowing Ge Xiaoyao to grasp her smooth, slender hand.

After a moment, Ge Xiaoyao released her wrist and smiled calmly, "Did Your Majesty suffer a serious illness when you were seventeen? And then recover without treatment?"

Yan Qiang trembled, and two clouds of rosy cheeks rose on her face. "How did the physician know this?"

Ge Xiaoyao became even more convinced of his guess, and then said, "Not only that, I also know that if Your Majesty suffers an injury from sexual intercourse, no matter how severe, it will heal itself within three days, and your body will become even stronger!"

Yan Qiang had already stood up at this time, and said leisurely, "Physician Ge is indeed a divine physician... In the autumn of my seventeenth year, I did indeed suffer from a serious illness. I had a high fever and was unconscious. All witch doctors and medicines were useless, and this continued for ten days. Later, for some reason, I dreamed of having sexual intercourse with an immortal, and I was cured. Since then, my body has been like this!"

"It is truly heaven's help, indeed a nine-life Yin body!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, the passage in the ancestral "Secret Techniques of the Bedchamber" that "a nine-life Yin body, the more it is injured, the stronger it becomes..." was still vivid in his mind. He then asked, "What grudge does Your Highness hold against Consort Shu? Could you tell me?"

Yanqiang, who revered Ge Xiaoyao like a god, readily recounted her grievances with Consort Shu… It turned out that Yanqiang was the former Consort Shu, while Yanyun was merely her maid. However, Yanyun falsely conveyed an imperial decree, causing Yanqiang to miss her appointed time to serve the emperor and be banished to the Cold Palace. Yanyun then took her place, becoming the current Consort Shu. After becoming Consort Shu, Yanyun set up the Leopard Chamber, where she frequently tormented Yanqiang for her own amusement.

"So it was a power struggle in the harem..." After hearing Yan Qiang's story, Ge Xiaoyao's hatred for Consort Shu intensified. He coldly said, "I thought Yan Yun was just naturally licentious, but I never expected her to be so ruthless and vicious!"

Yan Qiang continued, "And that's not all. She even framed loyal ministers who advised the king. No fewer than ten loyal ministers died at the hands of this licentious consort. Take the remonstrating official Kuang Cheng, for example. He only said, 'Your Majesty should not favor Consort Shu so much,' and she tricked him into the harem, where she cut off his hands and feet and mutilated his genitals..."

"In this way, she's almost indistinguishable from that vixen Daji..." Ge Xiaoyao suddenly thought of Chu Yu, a chill running down his spine. "No matter what, I can't let Yu'er become like this!" With this thought in mind, he immediately asked Yan Qiang, "Does Your Highness wish to reclaim the position of Consort Shu?"

Yan Qiang sighed softly and said leisurely, "Of course I do, but being confined to the Cold Palace, I can hardly see the King!"

Ge Xiaoyao said, "That's easy to solve. As long as Your Highness follows my plan, you will soon be able to regain your position as Consort Shu!"

Yan Qiang asked, "Doctor, what brilliant plan do you have?"

Ge Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, don't be impatient. I have the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique. As long as Your Highness practices it, your beauty will surely be even more radiant. Even if you only see the King once, you will be able to captivate him. At that time, Your Highness regaining your position as Consort Shu will be as easy as taking money out of your pocket." "Is retrieving things easy?"

Yan Qiang asked. "Please ask the physician for guidance..."

Ge Xiaoyao then imparted the essentials of the "Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique" to her, and after she had memorized it, he said, "Your Majesty must practice this Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique in secret, and it must never be known to others."

Having obtained the secret technique, Yan Qiang hurriedly replied, "Of course!"

Ge Xiaoyao continued, "I suppose that Your Majesty is now out of danger, so I will send you back to the Cold Palace to rest! If anyone asks, you should say that you have taken my medicine."

Yan Qiang nodded, her eyes filled with tenderness. After a long pause, she closed her eyes slightly and softly said, "I don't know how to repay the physician's great kindness... I only have this crippled body; if the physician does not abandon me..." As she spoke, she slowly removed her long robe, revealing her exquisite body completely naked before Ge Xiaoyao.

Ge Xiaoyao quickly stopped her. Yan Qiang lowered her head and said, "Does the physician think my body is dirty?"

Ge Xiaoyao draped his clothes over her and said, "Although I, Ge Xiaoyao, am a physician in the bedroom, I am not a lecherous man. Besides, I helped Your Highness because I disapproved of Consort Shu's licentious behavior. How could I take advantage of someone's distress to seek favors in return..."

Yan Qiang was about to thank him again, but Ge Xiaoyao stopped her. He went to the medical room and saw that the concubine had also woken up. He called a maid from outside the door and helped the two of them back to the Cold Palace.

After watching Yan Qiang and the other concubine leave, Ge Xiaoyao returned to his bedroom, lay on his bed, and sighed deeply, thinking to himself, "Heavens, heavens... it's not that I, Ge Xiaoyao, am heartless and unjust, but I was forced by fate to do this out of desperation... Qiang Yan... please don't blame me for sending you down the path of a lewd concubine!"

Chapter 17 Yin Body (Part 2)

Ge Xiaoyao had acted out of kindness, saving Yan Qiang under the guise of testing medicine, but he hadn't expected that Yan Qiang was a nine-life Yin Body. According to the "Secret Techniques of the Bedchamber," a nine-life Yin Body is only one lifetime short of being completely Yin, otherwise one can attain immortality. However, if one cultivates the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique, even at a hundred years old, she will still be like a young woman of sixteen, remaining a virgin day and night. Men who have intercourse with her will all be bewitched and die from exhaustion.

As the saying goes, "No ruthlessness, no true man; weakness, no true man," to save his girlfriend Chu Yu from the stigma of being a seductive concubine, he had no choice but to ruthlessly scheme, tricking Yan Qiang into practicing the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique, with the aim of corrupting King Zhou. Of course, this was also because Ge Xiaoyao had already realized that while Consort Shu was licentious and cruel, she was too cunning and unwilling to willingly become a substitute for Daji under his control. Therefore, he had to secretly cultivate another licentious concubine for future use.

However, fate is unpredictable. Ge Xiaoyao did not expect that this one wrong decision would almost lead to a grave mistake, making his path to redeeming his girlfriend even more winding, tortuous, and unpredictable. But that's a story for later, and we won't go into it here.

Now, Consort Shu, serving King Zhou, encountered a strange situation. Normally, King Zhou was straightforward and forceful, but today he was acting out of character, kissing her hands and feet, flirting with her, leaving her, who was usually adept at physical intimacy, completely bewildered and unsure how to respond. Just as she was getting anxious, she suddenly heard Ge Xiaoyao's voice in her ear. He instructed her on how to cater to King Zhou's actions.

This Consort Shu was extremely cunning. Although she heard the strange noise, she didn't show it on her face. Following Ge Xiaoyao's instructions, she soon aroused King Zhou's lust and made him very aroused. However, just as she and King Zhou were enjoying their bliss, the sound in her ear disappeared completely, leaving her utterly puzzled...

Chaoge City was originally called Modu. After King Zhou ascended the throne, he expanded Modu and renamed it Chaoge Mountain to the west of the city. There is a legend about Chaoge Mountain. Thousands of years ago, there was a phoenix that would fly there every morning and sing. This habit was later discovered by a Taoist. So, he lay in ambush there at night and used magic to capture the phoenix when it sang. The phoenix was unwilling to be captured but could not escape. So, it transformed into a ten-peaked mountain in the net, and the Taoist was also trapped under the mountain. From then on, the mountain was called Chaoge Mountain. And from then on, every woman living at the foot of the mountain was born with exceptional beauty, gentleness, and affection, supposedly because she was imbued with the spirit of the phoenix.

Yanqiang was born in a small village at the foot of Chaoge Mountain. It is said that at the time of her birth, seven stars shone brightly in the night sky, and a wonderful fragrance wafted for miles around… Later, at only ten years old, she possessed an extremely beautiful figure and face. Some elders said that she was the reincarnation of a phoenix from Chaoge Mountain.

Sure enough, at the age of seventeen, she was chosen by King Zhou's beauty pageant officials to be sent to the palace as a concubine. However, on the eve of her entry into the palace, she fell seriously ill and remained unconscious. Ten days later, in a dream, she had intercourse with an immortal, and after ascending to paradise together, the immortal instructed her: "You are a Yin body from nine lifetimes, and I am a Yang True Man. After this, you must wait for me for three years, and I will return to take you away from the mortal world and let you roam freely in the heavens..." After saying this, he disappeared without a trace

. Yan Qiang awoke peacefully, realizing it was all a dream. She exhaled warm breath, and her illness miraculously disappeared. Strangely, she had not eaten or drunk anything for ten days, but instead of becoming pale and thin after the illness, her beauty surpassed her former appearance. Originally, her name had been removed from the palace register due to the illness, but one day she encountered the beauty pageant officials. Seeing her beautiful appearance, the officials were tempted by her beauty and wanted to send her back to the palace. Yan Qiang refused, so the beauty pageant official threatened to kill her parents. Forced into a corner, she had no choice but to agree. Unexpectedly, after entering the palace, she caught the eye of King Zhou and was made a concubine, truly rising to the top.

Although King Zhou had many concubines, he favored her above all others; their harmonious union was the envy of many. Three years passed in a flash, and the prophecy of the immortal in her dream gradually faded from her heart. However, one night, the immortal who had been with her in her dream when she was seventeen suddenly appeared again. Seeing that she was now a concubine, he was not pleased but furious, sternly declaring, "You are a yin body from nine lifetimes; you must be paired with ten lifetimes of true yang to be free from trouble… otherwise you will be plunged into lust and unable to extricate yourself!" He then ignored Yan Qiang's cries and left.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, a royal decree arrived: she had been stripped of her title as concubine and banished to the cold palace to reflect on her actions. Replacing her was her maid—Yan Yun Nu, whom she considered a sister.

Only then did she realize that Yan Yun had spread false information, causing her to miss her appointed time to serve the king. Yan Yun, however, had seized the opportunity to please King Zhou and was immediately made a concubine.

She, a woman who preferred peace and quiet, thought that with Yan Yun's favor and the king's favor, she would be safe, and even though she had been banished to the cold palace, she would find peace. Unexpectedly, Yan Yun repeatedly humiliated her in the cold palace and even secretly set up the Leopard Chamber for torture…

Meanwhile, in the cold palace, the former concubine Yan Qiang woke up in the middle of the night, drenched in sweat, pale-faced, screaming. She saw only a dim lamp flickering before her bed and realized it was all a dream. But the dream felt so real, the scenes haunting her mind.

"A body with nine lifetimes of Yin energy must be paired with nine lifetimes of true Yang energy to be free from suffering... Otherwise, one will be plunged into the flames of lust, unable to extricate oneself! Plunged into the flames of lust, unable to extricate oneself! Plunged into the flames

of lust, unable to extricate oneself!..." "Hahaha, Sister Yanqiang, does this *water pool feel comfortable?..."

The immortal's shrill cries and Yanyun's lewd laughter echoed alternately in her ears, lingering for a long time.

Yanqiang sat up, thinking that she was now in the Cold Palace, not knowing when she would see the light of day again, and her heart ached, and she began to sob sadly.

"Your Majesty, do not be sad, what is troubling you, can you tell me..." Just as she was grieving, she suddenly heard Ge Xiaoyao's voice in her ear, and quickly wiped away her tears, looking around, only to find the room empty, with no one else besides her.

She was born into a hunter's family, and often went with her father into the deep mountains and forests to hunt foxes and wolves, and although she was beautiful, she was also very brave. Seeing that no one was in the room, she got out of bed and went to the window to look outside.

This cold palace was naturally desolate, and even in the dead of night, all the concubines and maids were fast asleep, and no one was moving. A bright moon hung in the sky outside the window, illuminating the courtyard as if it were daytime, but there wasn't a single person in sight. She couldn't help but sigh, perhaps due to excessive heartache and mental confusion, and suddenly all sleepiness vanished. She slumped into a chair, staring blankly at the pale moonlight.

A short while later, Ge Xiaoyao's voice rang in her ears again: "Your Majesty, turn around and see what Xiao Yi looks like?"

Yan Qiang was, after all, a woman, and it was the dead of night. These sudden voices, one after another, even made her, with her strong courage, feel a chill run down her spine and her scalp tingle. She mustered her courage and turned around abruptly. Sure enough, someone was sitting upright on the brocade bed. Before she could even get a good look, she couldn't help but scream "Ah!"

"Your Majesty, do not be afraid, it is indeed Physician Ge Xiaoyao..." Ge Xiaoyao's voice rang out again.

Yan Qiang looked closely and saw that the person on the bed was indeed Physician Ge Xiaoyao, smiling at her. She was already terrified just from hearing his voice, and now, not knowing how Ge Xiaoyao had entered the room and silently sat on her bed, her fear intensified. She forced herself to ask in a trembling voice, "You...you are a human...or a ghost?"

Chapter 18 Yin Body (Part 2)

Seeing Yan Qiang's pale face and disfigured appearance, Ge Xiaoyao sighed inwardly, "It seems that Yan Qiang's scheming and courage are indeed far inferior to Yan Yun's. No wonder she was tricked by her...Alas! It's a pity that such a simple woman will soon become a lewd and cruel concubine..."

However, his reluctance was immediately replaced by reason: "Ge Xiaoyao, why are you showing pity for her again? You can't watch her become a lewd concubine, can you ..." Could he really just stand by and watch his girlfriend, Chu Yu, become a harlot? Even if she became a harlot, it would still be better than her suffering torture and waiting to die in this cold palace! Ge Xiaoyao, remember, you are saving her, not harming her..."

With this thought in mind, Shi Tianye calmed himself down, chuckled, and said, "Of course I am human, Your Majesty, don't be afraid! This is just a little trick I used..."

Hearing him say this, Yan Qiang's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, slowly calmed down. Just as she was about to ask a question, she heard Ge Xiaoyao say with a smile, "The weather is too cold, Your Majesty's clothes are too thin, be careful not to catch a cold!"

Only then did Yan Qiang realize that she was only wearing an undergarment, her body fully exposed. She immediately blushed with embarrassment, and her hands subconsciously covered her high breasts.

Then, she suddenly remembered that he had already seen her naked body, and even her attempts to seduce him and offer herself had been rejected. Wasn't her attempt to conceal herself a bit...? Thinking this, she simply lowered her hands, letting her boundless beauty be revealed. Her beautiful, affectionate eyes gazed at Ge Xiaoyao, her cherry lips parted slightly, and she sighed, "I'm not cold, Physician, why frighten me?"

Ge Xiaoyao laughed, "I suddenly remembered that practicing the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique is very risky, easily leading to qi deviation. I was worried, so I came to see you. Your Majesty, please don't be offended!"

Since Yan Qiang arrived in this cold palace, besides the servants who brought her food and clothing, she had only received daily visits from... The woman, none other than Consort Shu who had come to humiliate her, had never been cared for like this before. Hearing the words "I can't let you go," she was moved, her beautiful eyes filled with tears. She gritted her teeth and knelt before Ge Xiaoyao , saying, "Divine Physician, why not rescue me from this deep palace? Yanqiang is willing to serve you as your servant for life..."

Ge Xiaoyao hadn't expected his words to move her so much, and quickly helped her up, saying, "Your Highness, you flatter me!"

Yanqiang, however, threw herself into Ge Xiaoyao's arms, weeping, "I know I am no longer pure. I don't ask for your acceptance, Physician, but only to serve you with your meals and daily needs, to be your servant. That would be enough!"

“Your Majesty, that’s not what I meant…” Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said, “I didn’t dislike you, it’s just…”

Yan Qiang raised her head in Ge Xiaoyao’s arms, her tearful face pitiful to behold. “Just what?”

Holding her soft, delicate body, intimately touching her smooth, delicate skin, and smelling her faint, intoxicating fragrance, Ge Xiaoyao didn’t know whether to let her go or not. He made up his mind and simply held her tightly, explaining, “Your Majesty, it’s not that I don’t want to save you, it’s just that I don’t have the ability!”

Yan Qiang asked in confusion, “Since you can come here invisibly and save someone from here, isn’t it easy?”

Ge Xiaoyao said helplessly, “To tell you the truth, Your Majesty… this is a little magic that a master taught me before I entered the palace. It doesn’t even work for me, let alone to save someone.”

Yan Qiang sighed softly after hearing this, shrinking into his arms like a docile lamb. "Since that's the case, then I misunderstood the doctor!"

Ge Xiaoyao was about to put Yan Qiang down when she suddenly said, "Doctor, the opening of the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique is the union of Yin and Yang, which requires taking a branch of Yang energy and placing it in the dantian as a guide... I don't know what that means, I haven't practiced it yet!"

"Damn it! How could I forget that!" It turned out that Shi Ye had only memorized the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique's incantation from the *Secret Techniques of the Bedchamber*, without carefully studying its contents. Now, hearing Yan Qiang's question, he pondered the incantation again and realized that the Nine Yang Yin-Gathering Technique required a man's yang energy as a catalyst to continue practicing. He secretly blamed himself for his oversight.

If Yan Qiang wanted to practice the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique, the only man who could do it for her was himself. However, he had previously said he wouldn't take advantage of her vulnerability; suggesting she need to have sex with a man now would be seen as deceiving her and could easily lead to misunderstandings.

As Ge Xiaoyao hesitated, caught in a dilemma, Yan Qiang said, "Physician, in my humble opinion, the opening words seem to imply that sexual intercourse is necessary! Now, I can only entrust this to you, so please grant my request!"

"Hmm..." Ge Xiaoyao felt uneasy upon hearing Yan Qiang's words and mumbled an agreement. Yan Qiang chuckled, "Physician, why such hesitation! Do you truly despise my ugliness and filth?" With that, she gently twisted her body, her red lips lightly pressing against Ge Xiaoyao's.

Ge Xiaoyao felt a delicate fragrance enter his nose, his mind went blank, and he involuntarily opened his mouth to capture her smooth, fragrant tongue. The two instantly fell into a passionate kiss.

Yan Qiang's short, thin gauze dress offered no concealment of her allure, and her fiery body writhed in Ge Xiaoyao's arms. The soft, warm touch of her body ignited a burning desire within him.

Like dry tinder igniting a raging fire… Although Yan Qiang was a woman, she possessed the Nine Yin Body, making her a hundred times stronger than ordinary women in both desire and constitution. Moreover, after years of solitary confinement in the cold palace, her suppressed desire, once unleashed, was uncontrollable. She was like a beautiful, lustful female beast, so fierce that even Ge Xiaoyao almost couldn't handle her.

Yan Qiang could revel in the passion of lovemaking, but Ge Xiaoyao could not. He knew that at this moment, the Yin energy within her body had accumulated for many years, becoming incredibly dense—the perfect time for her to cultivate the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique. If she missed this opportunity, the pure Yin energy would mix with his Yang energy, making cultivation much more difficult.

While responding to Yan Qiang's movements, Ge Xiaoyao whispered the incantation of the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique in her ear, guiding her to restrain her Yin energy and await his Yang energy so that she could enter the correct path of cultivation in time.

With a muffled groan, Ge Xiaoyao felt as if his yang energy had instantly fallen into a vortex, being sucked out by a powerful rotating force and rapidly leaking outwards. "Damn! The Nine Yin Body is indeed powerful, but I hope it doesn't drain me into impotence!" As more and more yang energy leaked out, Shi Ye secretly groaned, but he was unable to stop or escape the enormous suction force from the Nine Yin Body.

"Fine! Even if she becomes impotent, I will still help her master the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Technique!" Helpless, Ge Xiaoyao had no choice but to steel his heart and quickly shouted, "Your Majesty, don't just focus on the pleasure... Use your mind to guide the yang energy into your dantian, quick, quick! Use your mind!" "

Hmm...hmm..." Yan Qiang was in a heavenly realm at this moment, between ecstasy and death, she could not tell whether it was a moan or a muffled response, but the twisting of her delicate body became more and more intense, "Doctor...I can't take it anymore...hmm, hmm...mind...mind...mind...mind...how do I use it?"

"Heavens! Could it be that I, Ge Xiaoyao, who have been a womanizer for more than ten years, am really going to die from exhaustion on this Nine Yin Body?" Ge Xiaoyao was about to vomit blood on the spot, so he had to secretly use all his strength to try to stop the leakage of yang energy, while shouting loudly, "Mind...just think, think..."

Chapter 19 The Beautiful Empress (Part 1)

Chaoge City, Imperial Palace, Cold Palace Side Hall, Pleasure Hall.

"Damn it, I never expected the Nine-Life Yin Body to be so powerful! I almost died!" Ge Xiaoyao lay on the bed, breathing heavily, still shaken by the near-death experience. However, he was then overjoyed. "King Zhou, King Zhou, one day you will die beneath Yan Qiang's legs!"

Ge Xiaoyao had used his own yang energy as a guide to help Yan Qiang cultivate the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique. Unexpectedly, her Nine-Life Yin Body was too powerful, continuously absorbing the yang energy from Ge Xiaoyao's body. Helpless, he could only use the Yang Locking Technique while patiently guiding Qiang Yan to refine the absorbed yang energy. Just as Ge Xiaoyao's yang energy was about to be exhausted, Qiang Yan finally succeeded in refining the yang energy and entered the correct path of cultivating the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique. Ge Xiaoyao was also lucky to survive, but he was on the verge of death. It would take at least several days to replenish the lost yang energy.

Ge Xiaoyao lay motionless in bed, feeling dizzy and weak, wanting nothing more than to drift off to sleep…

The next day, Ge Xiaoyao still didn't get up. He simply wrote a tonic prescription and handed it to his two apprentice physicians, instructing them to prepare the medicine according to the prescribed dosage, and then calmly rest.

“Physician, Her Majesty the Empress has arrived!” one of the apprentices announced.

Ge Xiaoyao's head buzzed, and he forced himself to sit up. “Quickly, please come in!” he said, straightening his clothes and stepping out. The gate was wide open, and outside stood a large phoenix-embroidered sedan chair carried by eight shrewish women. A woman wearing a phoenix crown emerged, supported by two young maids.

“Your humble servant Ge Xiaoyao greets Her Majesty the Empress!” Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said.

“Physician Ge, no need for formalities!” a slightly aged voice said.

Ge Xiaoyao got up from the ground and invited the Empress inside to speak, but the Empress told her maids, "I will go in myself. You all wait here! Without my order, no unauthorized person is allowed to enter and disturb the physician's examination of my pulse!"

The maids agreed, and the Empress then followed Ge Xiaoyao into the medical room.

Ge Xiaoyao observed that the Empress appeared to be about thirty years old, yet she looked as old as forty. Her face was sagging and dull, and her figure was plump and somewhat bloated. Except for a hint of girlish charm when she smiled, she was practically indistinguishable from an old woman.

"I wonder what Your Majesty's instructions are for this humble subject?" Ge Xiaoyao wondered to himself, trying to discern her purpose in coming here.

The Empress smiled and said, "Physician, there's no need for such politeness. I, Jiang, have come here to ask you for a favor!"

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly replied, "This humble subject serves Your Majesty and Your Majesty, how could I accept such a request? It would be too much for me..." In his heart, however, he thought to himself that Empress Jiang was speaking so politely, she must have come to ask for some method to preserve her youthful appearance. He immediately reviewed all the prescriptions and formulas in his mind, just in case.

Empress Jiang said, "Physician Ge, I've heard you're a divine physician, skilled in regulating yin and yang, so I've come to ask you to diagnose me."

Ge Xiaoyao looked up and carefully examined Empress Jiang again, already having made up his mind. He said, "Your Majesty is peerless in beauty, the mother of the nation. Is there anything wrong?"

Empress Jiang said, "Lately, I've felt weak all over, listless, and my face is sallow and pale. I feel disgusted when I look in the mirror. Physician, do you have any remedies to treat me?"

Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, "This Empress must have been deprived of sexual intimacy for a long time to look like this." It is known that sexual intercourse between men and women, the exchange of yin and yang, besides the pleasure of the flesh, also has the special effects of strengthening the body and preserving youth. For men and women who have experienced sexual intercourse, if they abstain for a year or two, besides the unbearable desire, the harm to the body is also great. Generally speaking, symptoms include premature aging, irritability, and weakness. However, if Ge Xiaoyao told the truth, it would be disrespectful to her and would also be suspected of implying resentment towards King Zhou. Therefore, he hesitated for a moment, thinking about how to respond.

Empress Jiang may have noticed Ge Xiaoyao's hesitation, and said at this moment, "There is no one else here. Physician, please speak your mind. Although I am a woman, I am not a narrow-minded person. Whether you are right or wrong, I will not blame you!"

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said, "I dare not, I dare not..." After a moment's hesitation, he counted on his fingers and said, "Since ancient times, medicine has had four techniques: observation, auscultation, inquiry, and palpation. I observe that Your Majesty's face is pale but your expression is dignified, your spirit is weary but your voice is clear, and your movements are slow but measured. I suspect that Your Majesty's health is not seriously affected, but perhaps your yang energy has not been circulating for many days, resulting in an imbalance of yin and yang, and a disruption of the body's balance. It will not be too late to determine a prescription after I have taken Your Majesty's pulse."

Empress Jiang said, "I will follow the physician's advice!" As she spoke, she lightly lifted her gauze sleeve, revealing her jade wrist.

After taking the pulse, Ge Xiaoyao thought for a moment before saying, "Your Majesty, the pulse indicates that what I said earlier is true. I will temporarily prepare a prescription for Your Majesty. After Your Majesty takes it for one day, I will determine a prescription tomorrow night to cure Your Majesty's illness."

"Then I will trouble the physician..." Empress Jiang nodded in agreement.

Ge Xiaoyao said, "Your Majesty is too kind!" He then took a plain silk handkerchief, wrote down the prescription, and

ordered his physician to come in and dispense the dosage. In truth, he knew that Empress Jiang was not ill; it was simply that King Zhou favored his new favorite and neglected her, and they hadn't been intimate for a long time. The prescription Ge Xiaoyao had given was a simple one to nourish yin and yang, clear heat and reduce dryness, which could improve her blood circulation and temporarily suppress her desires. However, to truly restore her vitality, she needed sexual intercourse. But in the palace, besides King Zhou, who could facilitate this?

"Alas, it is said that one man enjoys three thousand beauties in his harem, yet he doesn't know that all three thousand beauties are lonely!" Ge Xiaoyao saw Empress Jiang off and returned to his chambers alone, sighing to himself.

At this moment, he heard a soft knock on the door. Shi Ye assumed it was the physician and said, "Come in, what is it?"

A seductive laugh rang out, the door was pushed open, and a fragrant breeze wafted in—it was the wanton Consort Shu.

Ge Xiaoyao sat up and exclaimed, "So it's Consort Shu! I, a humble physician, have failed to greet you properly; I deserve to die!"

Consort Shu also called out, "Physician, no need for formalities!" She turned and closed the door tightly, her beautiful eyes glancing at Ge Xiaoyao before her delicate body slumped into his arms. She whispered reproachfully, "My lord... I've missed you so much!" As she spoke, she wrapped her arms around his shoulders, her full hips swaying slightly, and begged for pleasure.

Seeing her face slightly raised, panting softly like a cat in heat, Ge Xiaoyao, though unwilling, was helpless. He feigned a smile, his left hand caressing her sensitive areas, teasing Consort Shu until her eyes closed and she moaned repeatedly. His right hand, however, took a "Chinese Viagra" pill from beside the bed and swallowed it in one gulp.

Chapter 20 The Clown Queen (Part 2)

"Master, you are truly a divine being! Last night, when I was serving the King, he acted strangely, leaving me, Yan Yun, quite passive. Fortunately, you secretly offered guidance, which satisfied the King. I truly thank you, Master!" After their passionate encounter, Consort Shu, Yan Yun, closed her eyes contentedly in Ge Xiaoyao's arms.

Ge Xiaoyao had exhausted his yang energy from his nine lifetimes of sexual intercourse with Yan Qiang last night, and originally had no energy left for this intimate encounter. His earlier attempt to appease Empress Jiang with a prescription was merely a delaying tactic. This time, unable to disobey Consort Shu, he reluctantly took a "Chinese Viagra" pill to satisfy her lust. Hearing her suddenly bring up the events of the previous night, he feigned surprise, saying, "What? I slept soundly here all night. How could I have been instructing you and the King on your lovemaking?"

Consort Shu's face showed astonishment: "I clearly heard your voice last night!"

"That's strange!" Ge Xiaoyao said, his face suddenly lighting up with joy: "Congratulations, Your Majesty! It must be that Your Majesty's loyalty to the King has moved Heaven, sending down an immortal to assist you!"

Consort Shu giggled, "That immortal must undoubtedly be a physician!"

Ge Xiaoyao asked, puzzled, "I'm just a mediocre physician, how could I be an immortal?"

Consort Shu nestled into his embrace, whispering seductively, "You always make me feel like I'm dying of pleasure. If you're not an immortal, then who is?"

The two lingered for another passionate night until darkness fell, when Consort Shu finally departed. Ge Xiaoyao thought of Yan Qiang, recited Jiang Ziya's incantation for invisibility and wall-penetrating magic, and his body suddenly appeared in the Cold Palace.

Yan Qiang was meditating and regulating her breathing. Her previously sallow complexion had become rosy, and her eyes had gained a touch of peach blossom color.

"The Nine-Life Yin Body is indeed powerful. In just one day, she has achieved a peach blossom complexion. It seems that within a month, her Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique will surely be completed!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, but he did not disturb Yan Qiang

. He began to cast a spell again and headed towards the Central Palace. The Central Palace was the Empress's palace, located at the center of the entire harem. The buildings were tall and the decorations were luxurious. The Empress's aura inspired respect. However, Ge Xiaoyao also knew that among the three thousand beauties in the harem, countless women were constantly scheming to seize the position of Empress.

"Alas, high position brings worries, low position brings worries. The hearts of women are truly unfathomable..."

Ge Xiaoyao sighed inwardly. Relying on his invisibility spell, he fearlessly searched for the most luxuriously decorated hall.

"What a slut! How dare she bewitch the King! I'll teach her a lesson!" Inside the hall, the middle-aged Empress Jiang was furious, a trembling maid kneeling before her.

"Eh! Isn't this Yan Yun's maid? What's she doing here?" Ge Xiaoyao asked, puzzled. He stepped into the hall, found a chair, and sat down, watching the two like a spectator.

The maid stammered, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger. It seems Consort Shu learned some kind of 'Yang-harvesting Technique' from the palace physician Ge Xiaoyao, which is why the King is unable to control himself and always protects her, ignoring Your Majesty's wise words!"

Hearing the maid mention him, Ge Xiaoyao cursed inwardly, "That damned woman! She even let the maid know this! Isn't she putting me in a difficult position?"

"Ge Xiaoyao?" The Empress suddenly lost her anger, nodded slightly, and muttered to herself, "He is indeed a genuine palace physician, quite skilled! I only took one dose of his prescription, and I feel much better! However, it's a pity for the King, who was only concerned with entanglement with that slut and didn't even glance at me!"

The maid hurriedly said, "This servant also heard from Consort Shu that Physician Ge is refining a elixir that can preserve youth and beauty, and has already tested it on two concubines in the Cold Palace. Your Majesty might as well..."

Empress Jiang nodded and said, "It seems that to win back the King's heart, we still need to go to Ge Xiaoyao! By the way, did Consort Shu go to seduce Physician Ge?"

The maid pondered and said, "I don't know!"

Empress Jiang thought for a moment and said, "That's good... Alright, go back quickly, lest Consort Shu become suspicious. Remember, if there is any news, report it to me immediately!"

The maid agreed and got up from the ground, quickly walking out.

Empress Jiang sat alone on a chair, closed her eyes and pondered for a while. Suddenly, a charming smile appeared on her face, and she murmured to herself, "There's no cat that can resist fish... I'll see if you, Ge Xiaoyao, dare to take my honey trap!" With that, she raised her voice and called to the maids outside the door, "Prepare the carriage, to the Hall of Supreme Bliss!"

"Looks like I won't be idle tonight... Sigh, how did I become like a male prostitute!" Ge Xiaoyao smiled bitterly to himself, but then he immediately felt relieved. "That's perfect. The fiercer they fight, the greater my chance to fish in troubled waters. Hehe, the more unfortunate King Zhou will be... Daji, no! Chu Yu's situation will be safer..."

Thinking of this, the Empress had already gone into the inner room to change her clothes. Seeing that there was no use in staying here, Ge Xiaoyao used magic to return to the Hall of Supreme Bliss, waiting for the Empress's arrival.

It's important to understand that while his idea to cure King Zhou's impotence was wicked, he didn't intend to fill the harem with licentious concubines like Yan Yun. Otherwise, not only King Zhou, but even he himself couldn't handle it. Moreover, this Empress was the mother of the nation, backed by many powerful officials. If she were also molded into a licentious woman, even if she herself was willing, those officials would surely make her suffer a terrible death.

"I've heard that Physician Ge possesses a set of Yang-cultivating techniques that can preserve youth and allow one to enjoy ultimate bliss. I wonder if he could teach them to me?" Empress Jiang gazed tenderly at Ge Xiaoyao.

Ge Xiaoyao, already having a plan in mind, replied, "It is true that I possess a set of genuine skills, but Your Majesty the Empress is of paramount importance, a mother of the nation. How can you practice such an evil art?"

Empress Jiang chuckled, "Physician, you certainly know how to talk. I am indeed the mother of the nation, but..." She then added with a sorrowful expression, "But I am also a woman. As the King's wife, if I cannot please him, wouldn't that also be my fault?"

"Damn! Why is everyone like this?" Ge Xiaoyao hadn't expected her to say this. His mind raced, and he bowed respectfully, saying, "To be honest, Your Majesty, while this skill has miraculous effects of extreme bliss, it is a method of reversing fate and stealing one's lifespan. Therefore, even if it means death, I dare not teach it to Your Majesty."

"Alas..." Empress Jiang's eyes welled with tears, "Does the physician have the heart to watch my painstaking efforts to serve the King go to waste?"

"Damn it, don't give me that! I've seen it all before... Hmm, but it's not convenient to just give up on her idea. How about..." Thinking of this, Ge Xiaoyao said, "Your Majesty, please don't be sad. I've recently refined a pill that's a top-grade anti-aging and beauty-enhancing medicine. Your Majesty can give it a try. Also, if Your Majesty trusts me, I can secretly teach you a few bedroom techniques. Although they're not as miraculous as the Yang-Gathering True Skill, they'll still be enough to please the King and satisfy Your Majesty."

Empress Jiang immediately said happily, "Of course I trust the physician. Please teach me now!"

"Damn it, it's really the Emperor who's more worried than the Empress..." Ge Xiaoyao pretended to cough, looked out the window, and pondered.

Empress Jiang, as the head of the palace, was naturally quite shrewd, and her ability to read people was unparalleled. She immediately called out to the door, "Guards! Convey my decree: the physician wishes to examine me. From this moment forward, no one is allowed to enter the hall without my permission. You all wait outside!"

The maids turned and left, and the Hall of Bliss fell silent. Empress Jiang then smiled, "Physician, may we begin now?"

Chapter 21 The Beautiful Empress (Part 2)

Empress Jiang lay contentedly in Ge Xiaoyao's arms, a glimpse of her radiant beauty peeking out from under the thin blanket. Despite being over thirty, her breasts and hips remained firm and bouncy; in modern times, with a little dressing up, she would be considered a top-tier beauty.

"Your Majesty..." Ge Xiaoyao said.

"Mmm..." Empress Jiang responded comfortably, "Physician, please speak freely..." Her voice became incredibly soft and seductive.

Ge Xiaoyao gently stroked her shoulders and said, "I am merely a palace physician. Although I serve the King, I am still a man of honor, with the heart to fight on the battlefield and serve my country. I beg Your Majesty to put in a good word for me with the King and give me a chance." Empress Jiang felt

a tingling sensation all over her body from Ge Xiaoyao's massage, an indescribable pleasure and ease. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Since the physician has such intentions, then I will certainly speak to the King and allow you to serve in the court. However…"

"This old woman, I knew she would set conditions!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, and quickly asked, "However, what?"

Empress Jiang smiled sweetly and said, "However, the physician can still serve as a palace physician, making it more convenient for you to enter and leave the palace to diagnose the King and your concubines."

"What convenience? It's just the convenience of satisfying... you know! Haha, that's exactly the result I wanted... King Zhou of Shang, if you dare to harm Chu Yu, I dare to make your Shang Dynasty never have a peaceful day again!" Ge Xiaoyao thought bitterly, but smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty!"

Empress Jiang said, "Why are we being so polite? Hmm..." As she spoke, she buried her head in Ge Xiaoyao's arms again and gave him a passionate kiss...

After their lovemaking, Empress Jiang affectionately called out "Xiaoyao," and then said through gritted teeth, "If you enter the court, you must unite the ministers to jointly advise the King to depose that harlot, Consort Shu!"

"I wonder what Consort Shu did to offend Your Majesty that makes Your Majesty hate her so much?" Ge Xiaoyao asked.

Empress Jiang pondered for a moment and said, "She has offended me in many ways. Just the fact that she seduced the King and neglected state affairs, and spread rumors to slander the current Empress, is enough to condemn her to a dead end!"

"Oh!" Ge Xiaoyao nodded, "I see. Actually, I've heard about Consort Shu's lewdness and poisonousness!"

"Extremely lewd and poisonous!" At this moment, Empress Jiang had completely lost her previous charm and turned into a complete shrew. She angrily said, "She even had two of my close ministers in court skinned alive! It really infuriates me!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Although Consort Shu is lewd and poisonous, to Your Majesty, she is just a small insect. She can't cause any big waves!" Ge Xiaoyao quickly said.

"Hehe..." Empress Jiang suddenly chuckled, a hint of murderous intent flashing in her eyes. She said, "Xiaoyao, did you teach that slut some kind of Yang-gathering technique?"

Ge Xiaoyao had already heard the maid report this to her in the Empress's palace, so he could no longer hide it. He immediately replied, "Yes, I was forced to do it!"

Empress Jiang said, "Xiaoyao, don't be alarmed. I don't blame you. However, that Consort Shu is truly a femme fatale, harmful and useless to our Great Shang. If you are truly concerned for the Great Shang and for me, you must devise a plan to get rid of her!"

"Your Majesty, I humbly obey your decree!" Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly replied. "I have a plan, but I don't know if it's feasible?"

Empress Jiang gently stroked Ge Xiaoyao's muscular chest and said, "What brilliant plan do you have, Xiaoyao? Tell me quickly!"

Ge Xiaoyao then said, "I believe that if we gather the ministers to remonstrate with the King in court, it would imply a rebuke of the monarch. If the King, concerned for his honor, ignores this and even listens to the sorcery of Consort Shu and executes the ministers, it would be detrimental to us. Perhaps, I could take advantage of the opportunity to teach her the Yang-cultivating True Skill, and secretly do something without anyone noticing." Unknowingly..."

Empress Jiang burst into laughter and said, "Xiaoyao's plan is really clever! This is why it is easy to hide with an open gun, but difficult to defend against a hidden sword!

Ge Xiaoyao pondered for a while and then said: "Although this plan is good, it just takes a little longer. You must know that the manipulation in this practice is unusual. If the concubine Shu notices it accidentally, it will be difficult for Xiaoyao and me to end it!"

Empress Jiang thought for a while, nodded and said, "That makes sense. There is no rush in this matter. Xiaoyao, you can act according to the situation. Even if something goes wrong, I will try to protect you from death!"

"Fuck, this old lady, she's trying to coax me with all her nice words, does she think I'm a three-year-old kid?" If you don't get the king's favor, how can you protect me from death? "Ge Xiaoyao sneered in his heart.

Empress Jiang laughed and said, "What's the harm in letting this pervert live for a few more days? "

Ge Xiaoyao also laughed, but he had other plans in his heart. Do you think he really wants to comply with the Queen Jiang's wishes and secretly remove Concubine Shu? How could he, Ge Xiaoyao, be willing to do so! It was just a pretense to appease the Empress.

Empress Jiang then pestered Ge Xiaoyao to teach her a few more bedroom techniques before finally settling into her clothes, satisfied, and leaving the Pleasure Hall with an air of nonchalance.

"Damn it, I've really become a male prostitute!" Ge Xiaoyao cursed inwardly. "That wretched old woman, if I didn't need you now, I wouldn't have touched this slut!"

As he cursed, he suddenly remembered that Empress Jiang had a traitor among Consort Shu's people. Consort Shu was very cunning and must have planted spies among her as well. The Empress had stayed in the Pleasure Hall for so long; it wouldn't be good for her to hear about it. Why not play the villain and accuse Empress Jiang first? Wouldn't that make him seem more loyal?

With that thought, he dressed, left the Pleasure Hall, and headed straight for the East Palace where Consort Shu resided.

The Eastern Palace, where Consort Shu resided, was naturally not as magnificent as Empress Jiang's Central Palace, but it was unique in its own way. Like the Western, Southern, and Northern Palaces, it was a two-story pavilion, with colorful flowers and birds in the garden and koi swimming in the pond.

"Physician Ge, you've come at the perfect time!" Consort Shu greeted Ge Xiaoyao with a fawning smile. "I was just about to go to the Hall of Bliss to find you!"

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, if you need anything, please send someone to summon me.

I will be there at your beck and call!" "Hehe..." Consort Shu covered her mouth and laughed, "Just now, His Majesty issued a decree ordering me to take you to the Heavenly Palace Cave in the Imperial Paradise tomorrow!"

"I wonder what His Majesty needs?" Ge Xiaoyao asked.

Consort Shu led Ge Xiaoyao up the steps, gradually ascending the brocade-paved staircase. "Nothing much, just accompanying His Majesty for some fun!"

Ge Xiaoyao was relieved. At this moment, Consort Shu had reached the top of the stairs, while he remained standing below

. Looking up, he saw her swaying waist, deliberately raising her jade legs high, revealing her cleavage beneath her skirt. "This lewd consort, so seductive!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, but stopped looking and went upstairs as well.

"Hmph! This old woman is indeed vicious. Guards! Bring Hua Cui here and slap her a hundred times!" Ge Xiaoyao had just finished recounting the story of Empress Jiang when Consort Shu flew into a rage.

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly stopped her, saying, "Yue'er, you mustn't! If you punish the maid, the Empress will surely know that I betrayed you, and I'll be in grave danger!"

Shufei Yanyun finally calmed down, her beautiful eyes filled with tears as she nestled into Ge Xiaoyao's arms. "Thanks to my lord's reminder, otherwise I would have harmed him!" But then she coldly added, "You old hag, Empress Jiang, I will never forgive you!"

Ge Xiaoyao asked, "Yanyun, we are now one, what do you suggest we do?"

"Hmm..." Shufei Yanyun thought for a moment and said, "How about this, we first appease Empress Jiang. Didn't she want you to enter the court as an official? Then we'll use a clever plan. You find out who her accomplices are in court, and then we..." She sharply drew her hand across her neck, making a "kill" gesture.

Chapter 22 Desire Spring (Part 1)

Chaoge City, Imperial Palace, Imperial Music Garden.

Ge Xiaoyao entered the cave engraved with the large red characters "Desire Spring Heavenly Palace" and immediately exclaimed in astonishment, "Damn! This King Zhou is truly licentious!"

The cave was vast, with interconnected chambers, and numerous hot spring pools exuded a strong aroma of wine. Stone tables were set up beside the pools, laden with various fruits and delicacies. In each pool, dozens of naked men and women were engaged in drinking, or in the act of lovemaking, displaying extreme lewdness.

"Physician Ge, what do you think of my hot spring pools?" King Zhou laughed heartily.

"Your Majesty certainly knows how to enjoy life! Only a king as valiant as you could possess such a grand ambition!" Ge Xiaoyao said with an incredulous tone.

"Hahaha..." King Zhou laughed loudly, picked up Consort Shu beside him, and said to Ge Xiaoyao, "Good! Physician Ge, come and enjoy yourselves with me!"

A moment later, the three of them emerged naked from the changing stone chamber. Upon seeing their master, the men and women who were making merry became even more frenzied, and the stone cave instantly became lively, filled with lewd sounds and whispers.

This lewd scene, coupled with the stimulation of the wine, made Ge Xiaoyao feel his blood rush to his head, his vision blurred, and his manhood seemed unable to withstand it any longer, rising up with a sharp edge.

King Zhou chuckled lewdly and, accompanied by Consort Shu, rushed into the warm wine pool. He took a large gulp of the wine and called out to Ge Xiaoyao, "Physician Ge, what's gotten into you? Come down and join me!"

Ge Xiaoyao, quick-witted, hurriedly replied, "This humble physician obeys Your Majesty's command!" He then cautiously entered the pool. Seeing Ge Xiaoyao enter, the naked women giggled and swarmed around him like fish seeing food, instantly burying him in a sea of flesh and desire.

At this moment, the warm wine pool became even more lively with King Zhou's arrival. Naked men and women displayed various positions to please him, and King Zhou, lewdly laughing, wrestled with the naked women, his hands and feet touching their snow-white and delicate flesh.

Suddenly, King Zhou laughed loudly, "Physician Ge, you and Consort Shu will perform for me!" With that, he pushed Consort Shu to Ge Xiaoyao's side.

Ge Xiaoyao was momentarily stunned, and was about to refuse when Consort Shu's delicate body coiled around him like a serpent. Her beautiful eyes, filled with a spring-like intoxication, were even more alluring. Her cherry lips, reddened by the wine, parted slightly, and she whispered in Ge Xiaoyao's ear, "The King is drunk, don't go against his wishes!"

Ge Xiaoyao understood immediately and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty!" He also let out a lewd laugh and unceremoniously pulled Consort Shu's body close, and they began to make love right there in the wine pool.

At this time, King Zhou was already half-drunk, surrounded by three beautiful women. Some were whispering sweet nothings in his ear, while others were touching breasts and buttocks, igniting his lust. Watching Ge Xiaoyao press Consort Shu beneath him, he laughed loudly, "Physician Ge is indeed amazing, hahaha..." He also pulled a naked woman close and began to make love to her as well.

While Ge Xiaoyao was entangled with Consort Shu, he secretly thought to himself, "I originally thought King Zhou was just an ordinary person, only lustful. Now it seems that his energy far exceeds my imagination. I can't even bear such a scene, yet he can indulge in debauchery every day. If I want to cure him of impotence, I really have to put in more effort!"

Just then, King Zhou roared, and a naked woman screamed as she was thrown out of the warm pool, crashing into the stone wall. She immediately suffered a head injury and died after struggling for a few moments.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events, and the entire cave fell silent. After a long while, Consort Shu finally mustered the courage to ask, "Your Majesty, how did she anger you?"

King Zhou snorted coldly and spat out a few words: "To fail in serving one's sovereign is a capital offense!"

Ge Xiaoyao shuddered. "Damn it! He just killed a living person like that? King Zhou is a real bastard, worse than an animal! Even if you don't consider her human, you can't just throw her to her death like that!"

At this moment, several naked men dragged the female corpse away and washed the ground clean with the nearby hot spring water. King Zhou waved his hand and said, "What's with the mourning? Laugh!"

The lewd sounds in the cave resumed, but to Ge Xiaoyao, they lacked the original eroticism and excitement; even the laughter sounded dull. King Zhou, perhaps feeling the same way, reluctantly climbed ashore, sat on a stone bench, and began to drink wine in a sullen mood.

Two naked women laughed and tried to approach him, but the moment their bodies touched him, he kicked them away with a punch and a kick, cursing, "A bunch of useless things, all like dead men, utterly boring! Where is the Heavenly Official?"

At this moment, a tall, thin middle-aged man hurriedly crawled over, trembling, and said, "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

King Zhou angrily said, "What else could I order? Replace all these flesh slaves tomorrow!"

Before the Heavenly Official could speak, the naked men and women all turned pale with fright and knelt on the ground, crying and begging, "Your Majesty, spare our lives! Your

Majesty, spare our lives..." But the Heavenly Official's face hardened, and he said, "What's the use of crying? Show me your special tricks and try to make the King laugh. Maybe he'll spare your lives!"

The naked men and women immediately became flustered, and lewd sounds and moans rang out again. In the wine pool and on the stone table, all sorts of obscene and lewd acts were displayed, even more outrageous than the lewd arts of Consort Shu in the Leopard Chamber.

"Damn, is death really that terrible? It's frightening these men and women like this!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself. "Looks like I need to think of a way to save these people!"

King Zhou, however, seemed oblivious to all this, simply drinking his wine in silence, no longer mentioning the matter of killing people to exchange for lives. Consort Shu rose from the pool, the pleasure from before still lingering within her. Now, stimulated by the actions of the sex slaves, her face flushed and her body burning hot, she climbed ashore, pressing her soft body against King Zhou, and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty..."

King Zhou grunted, ignoring her, continuing to drink his wine in silence. Consort Shu, helpless, could only look at Ge Xiaoyao, her lustful eyes flashing, signaling him to think of a solution.

Ge Xiaoyao had no choice but to step forward and say, "Your Majesty, this humble physician has a plan that can make the sex slaves exert themselves to the utmost, and Your Majesty will be pleased!"

King Zhou, upon hearing this, was indeed quite interested. He put down his wine cup and said, "What brilliant plan does the physician have? Tell me quickly !"

Ge Xiaoyao stepped forward, leaned close to King Zhou's ear, and whispered a few words. After listening, King Zhou clapped his hands and laughed, praising him repeatedly, "As the physician says, Physician Ge, go and return quickly!"

"Damn it! You lecherous king, I'll see if I, Ge Xiaoyao, don't kill you!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, went to the changing stone chamber to put on his clothes, and quickly walked out of the "Heavenly Mansion" cave.

"Physician Ge... wait a moment..." The Heavenly Mansion official caught up, panting heavily. His tall and thin figure was severely hunched over, clearly showing signs of extreme kidney deficiency and yang deficiency.

"No wonder, working in this den of debauchery every day, it would be strange if he didn't suffer from impotence! But why is he following me out?" Ge Xiaoyao stopped and gave a slight bow, saying, "What are your orders, Lord Tianfu Yin?"

Chapter 23 Desire Spring (Part 2)

The Lord Tianfu Yin's eyes were filled with sorrow as he knelt on the ground, pleading, "Physician, please don't disregard the lives of these hundred-odd people for the sake of the King's pleasure..."

"Damn it! How do you know I'd disregard the lives of over a hundred people? Do you think I'm an executioner?" Ge Xiaoyao cursed inwardly, then asked, "Lord Tianfu Yin, please rise. This humble doctor truly doesn't understand your meaning!"

Tianfu Yin, however, remained prostrate on the ground, saying, "If you don't agree, I will never get up!"

Ge Xiaoyao saw that although Tianfu Yin looked wretched, his willingness to plead for these hundred slaves suggested he wasn't a bad person. Seeing his resolute expression, he thought for a moment and said, "Alright, I agree! However, I want to know, who told you I was going to harm over a hundred lives?"

Tianfu Yin was taken aback, then kowtowed, saying, "No one told me; this is my guess!"

"Damn it! Do I look that bad?" Ge Xiaoyao smiled bitterly to himself, then said to Tianfu Yin, "What makes you think that? You're an official; don't you know the saying, 'Judging others by one's own standards'?!"

Tianfu Yin, still prostrate on the ground, whispered, "I know, but..."

"But what?" Seeing that the Prefect of Tianfu seemed quite honest, Ge Xiaoyao thought he must have something difficult to say.

Sure enough, the Prefect of Tianfu slowly straightened his back but did not stand up, remaining kneeling and saying, "Your Excellency does not know, just a month ago, the Left Prime Minister, Lord Yi Liang, accompanied His Majesty to Tianfu for entertainment. His Majesty was angry, and Prime Minister Yi came up with this idea. I thought it would be something to cheer His Majesty up, but I never expected..." At this point, the seven-foot-tall man trembled all over and burst into tears.

"Prefect of Tianfu, please don't get agitated, speak slowly... what didn't you expect?" Ge Xiaoyao quickly said.

“That Yi Liang is truly worse than a beast! He actually defied heaven and humanity, burying all fifty-odd men alive, and what about the other fifty-odd women…”

Ge Xiaoyao naturally knew Yi Liang was no good, so he asked, “What about them?”

Tianfu Yin’s face turned purple, and he gasped for breath, barely suppressing his excitement and anger, as he cried out, “That bastard Yi Liang! He actually sent over fifty women naked into the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain!”

“Ah?!” Ge Xiaoyao’s scalp tingled. He knew about the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain. It was named after a mountain in Chaoge Mountain where King Zhou ordered the vassals to present ten thousand beasts for convenient hunting. Lions, tigers, wolves, leopards, and vicious birds and poisonous insects were everywhere.

"Those fifty beautiful and clever girls, all died under the claws of the beast. The tragic scene moved even the guards, while Yi Liang and King Zhou laughed heartily..."

"Beast! One day you will get your retribution!" Ge Xiaoyao said, "Lord Tianfu Yin, you specifically came out to stop me, are you afraid that I will also do what Yi Liang did and kill all these flesh slaves?"

Tianfu Yin said, "I also don't want the tragedy to happen again. If the physician insists, then I can't help it. Besides, I've said so many bad things about King Zhou and the prime minister, my life is not long..."

"It seems that although the Shang Dynasty's harem is licentious, there are still some upright and virtuous people!" Ge Xiaoyao laughed, stepping forward to help the Heavenly Prefect up, saying, "Lord Heavenly Prefect, to be honest, I, Ge Xiaoyao, have no intention of harming these hundred slaves. I can assure you, their lives are completely safe, you can rest assured!"

The Heavenly Prefect was overjoyed: "Thank you for your mercy, Physician!" After his joy subsided, he pondered for a moment and asked, "How will the Physician explain this to the King?"

Ge Xiaoyao laughed heartily and said, "Has the Heavenly Prefect forgotten my specialty? I am a palace physician, only fit to save lives, how could I possibly learn from Yi Liang and harm people?" "!"

The Prefect of the Heavenly Palace nodded hastily, "That's...that's..." but then sighed and whispered, "His Majesty is licentious; the physician must be careful!"

Ge Xiaoyao said, "Of course, I have another question I'd like to ask!"

The Prefect of the Heavenly Palace said, "Please speak, sir!"

Ge Xiaoyao said, "Today I only see a wine pool in the Heavenly Palace; wouldn't it be better if there were a meat forest?"

The Prefect of the Heavenly Palace's face suddenly changed color, and he stammered, "Physician, you wouldn't be thinking..."

Ge Xiaoyao asked in confusion, "Thinking of what?"

The Prefect of the Heavenly Palace sighed and said, "Physician, come with me, and you'll understand!" Saying this, he walked outside.

Ge Xiaoyao followed closely behind and asked, "Lord Tianfu Yin, is the Wenli Pool sealed off?"

Tianfu Yin replied, "Of course, that was the original hot spring. Later, the King sealed the spring with stone slurry and poured in a thousand barrels of fine wine, which is why it's like this!"

Ge Xiaoyao nodded, his plan now clear. He immediately asked, "Is the Flesh Forest far? The King still needs to give his reply. If it's far, I'll go another day!"

Tianfu Yin hurriedly replied, "It's just ahead, my lord, it'll only take half an hour!"

After walking for a while, the two entered a valley filled with jagged rocks. The valley was narrow, with winding paths leading to secluded spots. The further they went, the more eerie it became, and a strange, unpleasant wind blew through the air.

"Damn it! Who the hell came up with this idea?" Ge Xiaoyao cursed. In a clearing in the middle of the valley, naked female corpses hung from large rocks, some of them already dried out, emitting a nauseating stench.

"My lord, this is the Forest of Flesh!" said the Prefect of Heaven, his voice filled with intense hatred. "It was created by that Prime Minister Yi Liang!"

"These corpses are all living women from the Heavenly Palace... Heavenly Palace, Heavenly Palace, they fell from Heavenly Palace to hell in the blink of an eye, what use is Heavenly Palace now!" The Prefect of Heaven roared, staring at the forest of corpses swaying in the wind.

"Alas!" Ge Xiaoyao sighed and asked, "Could it be that King Zhou is so foolish that he treats even his own people of the Great Shang like this?"

The Prefect of Heaven also sighed and said, "No, the men and women in the Heavenly Palace are not subjects of the Great Shang, but war slaves from the Eastern Yi!"

"Damn it... even war slaves shouldn't be treated like animals!" Shi Ye covered his nose and walked back, cursing Yi Liang a thousand times over.

"Where is the physician now?" The Prefect of Heaven called after him.

Ge Xiaoyao shook his head sharply, calming his chaotic mind, and said, "Come on, let's move some things!"

"Move some things?" Tianfu Yin asked, puzzled. "Move what?"

Ge Xiaoyao chuckled and said, "Didn't the King want to have some fun? Today I'll show him!"

Seeing Ge Xiaoyao's expression, Tianfu Yin quickly said, "Physician Ge, I know you're a kind person, but King Zhou is a ruthless wolf. If we're not careful, we could be killed! I don't care about my death, but Physician, you're still young..."

"Lord Tianfu Yin!" Ge Xiaoyao interrupted him, "I know what's going on. I have my own plans to please the King!"

Chapter 24 Desire Spring (Part 2)

"What? Aphrodisiacs..." Tianfu Yin's eyes widened, looking at Ge Xiaoyao uneasily.

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and patted his shoulder, "Lord Tianfu Yin, it's just some aphrodisiacs, why make such a fuss! The King is happy, the slaves live, what's not to like?"

"Hmm... should we distribute them all to them?" Tianfu Yin asked again.

"Eat them?" Ge Xiaoyao shook his head violently, "Wouldn't it be better to put them in the warm wine pool?"

Tianfu Yin stopped talking, after all, this was a last resort. Ge Xiaoyao then instructed two medical apprentices to carry the bags of aphrodisiacs to the Tianfu Cave and pour them all into the warm wine pool.

Ge Xiaoyao had already prepared these aphrodisiacs in the Pleasure Hall, intending to make a fortune when he reopened the Shi Family Academy after leaving the palace, but he never expected them to be used here. Anyway, there are plenty of medicinal herbs in the palace, he can take whatever he wants, this little aphrodisiac is nothing to him. A little bit of embezzlement is no big deal, haha.

The aphrodisiac is colorless and odorless, it dissolves instantly in the wine, and the steaming aroma of the wine makes people even more excited.

"Physician Ge, what did you add to my warm wine pool?" King Zhou took a deep breath, feeling a slight desire rising in his lower body again.

"Your Majesty, it's just a medicine!" Ge Xiaoyao smiled and stepped forward.

"A medicine? Then is the wine in this warm wine pool still drinkable?" King Zhou asked doubtfully.

Ge Xiaoyao smiled even more brightly and quickly said, "It's drinkable, of course it's drinkable. My medicine is colorless and odorless, it dissolves instantly in the wine, it can help people and is absolutely harmless."

"Good!" King Zhou said, "Is this the wonderful way the physician makes me laugh? I don't feel any difference."

"Your Majesty, please wait a moment!" Ge Xiaoyao said.

The aroma of wine in the Tianfu Cave grew stronger, and the three large bags of aphrodisiacs poured into the warm wine pool were slowly taking effect. The faces of the hundred-odd naked men and women were flushed, their bodies burning, and their eyes gleaming with hunger.

"Lord Tianfu, it's about time. Give the order!" Ge Xiaoyao whispered to the Lord Tianfu.

The Lord Tianfu had somehow summoned over ten more naked women, each holding a zither, who began to play under his direction. Instantly, the entire cave was filled with lewd music.

The hundred-odd "slaves," already ravenously thirsty from the wine's potent aphrodisiac, and further aroused by the music, stood erect, hands on their hands, a row of sharp spears radiating menacing intent. The women caressed their bouncing breasts, their sweat-drenched legs tightly closed, their plump buttocks swaying like snakes, occasionally letting out a soft moan between breaths.

Having received the Heavenly Prefect's order, they each responded in their own way and scattered, hiding in the winding mountain caves. Ge Xiaoyao whispered a few words in Consort Shu's ear, and Consort Shu then smiled and said to King Zhou, "Your Majesty, I'll be right back!"

King Zhou thought she was going to the toilet and nodded, "My beauty, hurry back..." Only Ge Xiaoyao, King Zhou, the Heavenly Prefect, and a few guards remained in the cave. Ge Xiaoyao smiled and said to King Zhou, "Your Majesty, I would like to invite you to play a game in this Heavenly Prefecture!"

"Oh?" King Zhou, now aroused by the aphrodisiac, said, "What game? Tell me!"

Ge Xiaoyao then leaned closer to King Zhou and whispered a few words in his ear.

King Zhou was overjoyed, clapping his hands and laughing, "Good! Today, I'll seek immortals in the clouds!"

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" He then took a handful of white powder from his medicine bag and sprinkled it into the pool, explaining as he did so, "This is mist grass powder, made from mist grass grown in the most beautiful mountains and rivers. It can generate white mist..."

Sure enough, in a short while, wisps of white mist rose from the pool, instantly shrouding the entire Tianfu Cave in a hazy mist. From each cave, one could hear soft moans and alluring laughter, interspersed with the faint breaths of women in pleasure, making one feel as if they were in a dreamlike paradise.

"Fairies, I'm coming!" King Zhou laughed heartily, but without discerning direction, he walked into the thick fog.

"Mmm...Master, I can't take it...Mmm...Ah!"

Deep within the secluded Tianfu Cave, a narrow pool of warm water, barely a meter in diameter, lay hidden. The pool was now dry, and the naked Shufei stood upside down in it, while Ge Xiaoyao grabbed her long, beautiful legs and forcefully spread them apart.

"This is called 'Upside-Down Court of Love,' understand?" Ge Xiaoyao ignored Shufei's moans and continued, "Damn! I'm about to lose control too..." He swallowed hard, suppressing his lust.

"Understood..." Shufei cried out.

Ge Xiaoyao then laid her down on the ground. Shufei lay on her back, panting heavily, her chest heaving, a sight that made one dizzy.

After a short rest, Ge Xiaoyao said, "Yanyun, I'll teach you another move, called 'Iron Spear Piercing the Soft Bridge'..."

"Okay...Master..." Shufei's face was flushed, as if she were drunk, her eyes glazed, her red lips slightly parted. Ge Xiaoyao stepped forward and lifted her up by her slender waist. "Shilang, is this how it is?" She propped herself up on her hands and legs, her body arching back. Her curvaceous body resembled an inverted white shrimp, making the mountains, plains, and grass even more prominent.

“Damn, such a slut, she really is a perfect match for King Zhou! But, although she’s wanton, her figure is undeniably irresistible…” Ge Xiaoyao swallowed hard, then pressed down on his erect member before turning his gaze away from Consort Shu. “Yes… raise it a little higher…”

Consort Shu obeyed, raising her body higher and letting out a soft moan. “Is this alright?”

“Alright, that’s fine!” Ge Xiaoyao said. “I think the King will be here soon! I’m leaving now, otherwise, if the King sees me, this Heavenly Abode will immediately become my hell!”

Consort Shu raised a seductive eyebrow, reluctantly saying, “Master…”

Ge Xiaoyao had already walked out of the cave when he heard Consort Shu call him. He turned back and asked, “What?”

Consort Shu collapsed, crawling on the ground like a white snake, and said softly as if in a dream, “Tonight, I’ll come find you…”

"Damn! You've had enough today. You probably won't even be able to walk straight tonight... Hehe..." Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, but replied with a smile, "Alright! I'll wait for you..."

Ge Xiaoyao had just turned a corner when he saw King Zhou lewdly disappear into the cave where Consort Shu was. He thought to himself, "Perfect timing," and then heard Consort Shu's lewd moans coming from inside the cave. He shook his head and smiled, then walked out of the cave.

When he arrived at the outer cave, he saw that the fog was almost dissipating, so he took a handful of fog grass powder and sprinkled it into the warm wine pool to make the fog thicker... Then he found the Heavenly Prefect, gave him a few instructions, and walked out of the Heavenly Prefectural Cave alone.

Because he had an extremely important matter to attend to.

Chapter 25 Ice Maiden (Part 1)

Chaoge City, Imperial Palace, Star-Picking Tower.

"Hmm... Not bad, Physician Ge is indeed a good physician for me!" King Zhou drank the tonic that Ge Xiaoyao handed him and smacked his lips.

"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty. I am unworthy of such praise..." Ge Xiaoyao quickly bowed in gratitude, but secretly thought to himself, "Hehe... This medicine contains my newly concocted secret essence-reducing powder. In less than three years, hehe..."

Inside the Heavenly Palace, he discovered that King Zhou's physique was extraordinary, possessing the body of an iron dragon. "Dragons are inherently lewd, and iron is inherently strong," he reasoned. To render him impotent, simply cultivating a few lewd concubines skilled in yang-harvesting techniques wouldn't suffice; he must first break his iron dragon body to achieve his goal. Therefore, without waiting for King Zhou to emerge from the cave, he left alone to concoct this "Sperm-Destroying Powder." The harem was well-stocked with various medicinal herbs, and Ge Xiaoyao successfully concocted the powder in less than half a day. He then added it to King Zhou's usual tonic, and only then did King Zhou emerge from the Heavenly Palace cave, satisfied, and summon Ge Xiaoyao to the Star-Picking Tower to obtain the medicine.

King Zhou then said, "Physician Ge is proficient in both male and female medicine and has a deep understanding of pharmacology. Could you please resolve another of my doubts?"

Ge Xiaoyao asked, "Your Majesty, I will do my utmost to relieve your worries. May I ask what your doubts are?"

King Zhou said, "I have a concubine in the Western Palace named Consort De. She is as beautiful as a flower, but she is extremely cold-hearted. Every time I go to see her, she..." At this point, King Zhou stopped speaking, seemingly finding it difficult to continue.

Ge Xiaoyao chuckled, "So Consort De is actually a cold beauty. Would that displease Your Majesty? Leave that to me, but..."

King Zhou exclaimed with delight, "But what? If you can transform her from cold to fiery, you can choose any beauty, a thousand pieces of gold, or a high-ranking official!"

Ge Xiaoyao quickly replied, "I dare not ask for Your Majesty's reward, but Your Majesty must issue a decree allowing me free access to the West Palace, and no one may obstruct me."

King Zhou waved his hand, "I see! Very well, issue the decree. Physician Ge is free to enter and leave the West Palace, and without Physician Ge's permission, not even I, the King, may enter the East Palace!"

"Damn! This King Zhou is truly bewitched by beauty. Isn't this tantamount to handing over the West Palace's beauties to me, Ge Xiaoyao?" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself with amusement, quickly expressing his gratitude.

"Your Majesty, did you enjoy yourself to the Heavenly Palace today?" Ge Xiaoyao asked again.

"Hehe... I enjoyed myself to the fullest... This is all thanks to Physician Shi!" King Zhou laughed heartily.

"Your Majesty, I dare not claim credit. It's just that time was short today, and the arrangements are still inadequate, failing to impress Your Majesty!" Ge Xiaoyao said.

"Oh?" King Zhou's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Does the physician have a better idea?"

Ge Xiaoyao pondered for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, the name 'Heavenly Palace' must be derived from the Heavenly Palace. Why not renovate it like the Heavenly Palace, filling it with rare flowers and herbs, adorning it with golden beams and jade pillars, and decorating it with pearls from the Dragon Palace and treasures from the sea? Then, each of the women could be given a celestial title and placed there. At that time, Your Majesty would not only be the Human Emperor but also the Supreme Emperor of Heaven, spending your days in the Heavenly Palace, enjoying the company of the Nine Heavenly Maidens. Wouldn't that be even better?"

"Haha..." King Zhou clapped his hands and laughed, "What a brilliant idea! Well then, after you heal Consort De, as a reward, I will bestow upon you the position of Chief Steward of the Inner Palace, responsible for building the new Heavenly Palace for me."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly replied.

"Hmm...right, there's one more thing!" King Zhou said again, "Why hasn't Consort Shu returned yet at this hour?"

Ge Xiaoyao said, "Didn't Consort Shu come out of the Heavenly Palace with Your Majesty?"

King Zhou shook his head and said, "I came out after I had my fun, but Consort Shu is still there!"

"Hehe...Consort Shu, you lewd woman, you're in for it this time!" Ge Xiaoyao chuckled inwardly and said, "Perhaps Consort Shu has returned to the Eastern Palace first!"

"Hmm!" King Zhou nodded and said, "Physician Ge, I order you to go and find Consort Shu. Tell her that the promise to serve her tonight is canceled, and she can rest in peace!" At this point, King Zhou sighed and said, "Alas! The Queen has repeatedly sent messengers to summon me to the Empress's palace to sleep. The separation from Queen Jiang has been long, and there's been criticism in court. Although I am the King of Shang, I cannot break ancestral rules… I have no choice but to comply!"

"Heh heh… I'm afraid you won't be able to have her serve you tonight!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself. Hearing that King Zhou wanted to go to the Queen's palace, he was secretly pleased and said, "This humble subject has something to say to Your Majesty!"

"Speak quickly!" King Zhou said.

"In this humble subject's opinion, Your Majesty looks joyful today; something good must be happening. Perhaps there will be a surprise in the Empress's palace!" Ge Xiaoyao said.

"Physician Ge, I understand your concern for me!" King Zhou said, "However, the Queen is old and faded, and I really can't imagine what good thing could happen if I sleep in the Empress's palace. You may go about your business! I need some peace and quiet!"

Leaving the Star-Picking Tower, Ge Xiaoyao headed straight for the Heavenly Mansion Cave. As soon as he arrived at the cave entrance, the Heavenly Prefect hurriedly came out to greet him, whispering a few words in his ear.

"Good! Well done!" Ge Xiaoyao chuckled, "I wanted to let this harlot experience this kind of pleasure!" He then turned to the Heavenly Prefect and said, "Here's what you'd say: tell this harlot that the King will be residing in the Central Palace tonight, and that she should return to the Eastern Palace to rest."

The Heavenly Prefect readily agreed, and seeing that the Heavenly Palace was safe, Ge Xiaoyao returned to the Hall of Supreme Bliss. Not long after he left, the Heavenly Cave door opened wide, and two men carried out the dying Consort Shu.

At this moment, Ge Xiaoyao lay alone on the bed, imagining Consort Shu being tortured and ravaged, and couldn't help but laugh wildly, "Hahaha...you vicious harlot, you've finally tasted the madness of more than thirty men..."

Just then, the physician came to report that the Western Palace Consort De had come to visit.

"Hehe, I was just about to go find her, but I didn't expect to deliver myself to your door!" Thinking of King Zhou's instructions, Ge Xiaoyao smiled smugly and said, "Please come in!"

Stunning, stunning, absolutely stunning! Ge Xiaoyao simply couldn't imagine any words to describe the beauty before him. No wonder that although she was as cold as ice, King Zhou was still infatuated with her. If it were anyone else, daring to say "no" to him, they would probably be a withered corpse in the forest of dead flesh behind the mountain long ago.

"Physician Ge, this humble woman greets you!" The beauty's face remained unchanged, always as calm and composed as ever. If King Zhou hadn't said it beforehand, Ge Xiaoyao would have thought that this beautiful woman was definitely ill.

"Your Highness, you are too kind. It should be this humble subject greeting Your Highness!" Ge Xiaoyao finally withdrew his gaze from her face and hurriedly said.

"Recently, this humble woman has been feeling unwell and has come to trouble the physician to take her pulse and treat her!" said the Consort De.

Seeing that her face remained stern, Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, "I don't believe you only have this one expression!" He then said, "Your Majesty, please sit down."

Ge Xiaoyao placed his five fingers on Consort De's snow-white wrist, feeling a slight chill. Aside from being somewhat erratic, her pulse was unusually strong, indicating that she was clearly a person of intense inner passion. Intending to test her, he frowned and feigned surprise, saying, "Eh?"

If it were an ordinary patient, hearing the doctor's words would surely move them—whether with surprise, fear, joy, or worry—but Consort De remained expressionless, seemingly indifferent.

"Damn it! I, Ge Xiaoyao, refuse to believe in such superstitions!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, then pretended to carefully examine the pulse again, suddenly beaming with joy, "Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty!"

Chapter 26 Ice Maiden (Part 2)

Consort De said expressionlessly, "What is there to celebrate? Physician, please explain!"

Ge Xiaoyao said, "Congratulations, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is pregnant!" As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Consort De, to see if she had changed.

Although Consort De's face did not move, her eyes suddenly trembled, her lips quivered rapidly before stopping, and she returned to her original icy demeanor, saying, "Physician, are you sure? You must know, this is not a game; it could cost you your head!"

Ge Xiaoyao had already made up his mind, gritted his teeth and said resolutely, "I'm sure!"

Consort De said, "Nonsense!" After saying that, she got up to leave.

Ge Xiaoyao already had a plan for King Zhou's instructions and was confident that he could win over this icy beauty. He said neither arrogantly nor humbly, "This humble doctor, Ge Xiaoyao, respectfully sees Your Majesty off. May Your Majesty have a safe journey!"

Watching Consort De's beautiful figure disappear outside the door, Ge Xiaoyao remained silent for a long time before finally letting out a profound and enigmatic chuckle.

The entire palace was filled with joy. Empress Jiang had finally welcomed back her husband, King Zhou, whom she hadn't shared a bed with for months. Therefore, she ordered all the maids in the palace to dress up and adorn themselves. Those who were slightly unattractive were all confined to the servants' quarters. The Eastern Palace instantly transformed into a garden of a hundred flowers. Even the maids who usually wore plain clothes were now dressed in light gauze, revealing their graceful figures, their faces powdered, and dressed in flamboyant attire. Empress Jiang herself went to great lengths. First, she bathed in peach petals, then covered her entire body with tribute spices from the Southern Barbarians. A semi-transparent red gauze covered her body, revealing her alluring curves. Combined with her recently hydrated face, enhanced by Ge Xiaoyao's treatment, and her well-trained seductive manner, she no longer looked like a middle-aged woman, but rather as fresh and youthful as a young girl in her late twenties, possessing the mature allure of a woman in her thirties.

"Is this my queen? How did this old hag become so charming?" King Zhou embraced Queen Jiang's slender waist, hardly believing that the beauty before him was the "old hag" he had spoken of.

Queen Jiang smiled charmingly and said sweetly, "Your Majesty, don't you recognize me?"

King Zhou chuckled, slowly lifting her delicate neck with his fingers, and said, "I never imagined my queen would become so captivating!"

Queen Jiang glanced at King Zhou with alluring eyes, feigning anger, and said, "Hmph, you only have eyes for that Consort Shu, how could you remember this old hag like me..." As she spoke, tears welled up in her beautiful eyes, making her appear pitiful.

King Zhou laughed heartily and said, "Your Majesty, you have misunderstood me. My Majesty is so beautiful and radiant, who would dare call you a haggard old woman!"

Queen Jiang's anger turned to joy, and she scolded, "If it weren't for Physician Ge's treatment, how could I be so beautiful now? Your Majesty... you must reward Physician Ge handsomely!"

King Zhou said, "Ge Xiaoyao is indeed a divine physician of the court. I will certainly not mistreat him. I plan to appoint him as the Grand Steward of the Inner Palace to oversee the construction of my Heavenly Palace. What does Your Majesty think?"

Queen Jiang said, "That would be wonderful, but Physician Ge once told me that as..." "A true man should fight on the battlefield, die on the battlefield. I see he does have some talent. If there's an opportunity, Your Majesty should give him one!"

King Zhou nodded and said, "Indeed, this is the pillar of our Great Shang. After the Heavenly Palace is completed, I will appoint him as a guard of the Eastern Expeditionary Army to participate in the campaign against the Eastern Yi. If he performs well, he will become a high-ranking official of the Great Shang!"

When Queen Jiang saw that King Zhou had agreed to let Ge Xiaoyao serve in the court, she was overjoyed. She wrapped her delicate arms around his shoulders, lifted her face, and pressed her fragrant lips to his face.

King Zhou had also inhaled a lot of aphrodisiacs in the Heavenly Palace. Although he had been having sex with the slaves and Consort Shu for a long time, the desire in his body had not been completely quelled. He was further aroused by Queen Jiang, this resentful woman in her boudoir, and a kiss on her red lips ignited the desire in his heart. He laughed loudly, picked up her delicate body, and walked into the inner palace.

Inside the inner palace, the brocade bed and warm curtains had already been laid out, and the incense burner emitted wisps of purple smoke, filling the room with an intoxicating fragrance.

"My beauty, how about we return to our auspicious night tonight?" King Zhou leered at Queen Jiang's beautiful face. Her crescent-shaped eyes, her high, delicate nose, her full, red lips, and her pearly white teeth stirred his heart, as if he were back on his wedding night.

"Mmm..." Queen Jiang let out a soft moan, her alluring breath escaping her lips. She whispered softly, "Your Majesty..." Her face lifted slightly, her eyes gleaming with longing.

"Heh heh..." King Zhou placed her on the brocade bed, his massive body pressing impatiently against her.

Queen Jiang let out a soft cry, her soft body immediately pressing tightly against him, her arms and legs entwined around King Zhou's body.

A sliver of silvery moonlight streamed through the window, illuminating her equally white body. She buried her head deeply between King Zhou's legs, and amidst his heavy breathing, she gradually increased the force of her lips opening and closing.

Sucking, spitting out, then sucking again, spitting out again, repeating this action over and over until she slowly realized that her small cherry-like mouth could no longer contain that enormous thing.

Hot… Empress Jiang's soft, jade-like hands replaced the actions of her cherry lips. Her slender, smooth waist straightened, her pink neck tilted back, and a cascade of long, jet-black hair fell across her chest. Her full buttocks seemed unable to sit still, rubbing tightly between King Zhou's legs… twisting…

“Ah…” King Zhou finally couldn't bear it any longer. He suddenly rolled over and pounced on Empress Jiang in front of him. His large hands began to violently and haphazardly knead her body. Her high, firm breasts trembled incessantly, causing the moonlight to ripple…

“Hmm… Hmm… Ah… Ah, ha…” Empress Jiang had not been so intensely assaulted in a long time. Although she had been nourished by Ge Xiaoyao's affections a few days ago, the feeling was quite different. Ge Xiaoyao's skills were superb. Whether it was his lips, fingers, or… he could quickly capture her sensitive spots, allowing her to fully display her feminine charm and tenderness, making her feel incredibly comfortable and blissful. King Zhou, on the other hand, charged and pounded recklessly, venting his lust like a wild beast, showing no regard for her feelings. If Ge Xiaoyao was the warm winter sun, King Zhou was the summer storm—one gentle, the other fierce.

However, for this middle-aged queen, the former seemed less appealing. Deep down, she craved a kind of sexual gratification, or rather, sadomasochism, something that would give her a sense of novelty and excitement, making her feel young and beautiful, capable of arousing a man's most primal desires. Faced

with King Zhou's stormy onslaught and near-brutal ravaging, she furrowed her brows, parted her lips, stretched out her limbs, writhing, entwining, enduring, like a cat in heat, almost driven mad by lust.

"Ah!..." Blood streamed from her red lips; a gash on King Zhou's shoulder, slashed by his teeth, oozed blood, which she then sucked clean. In King Zhou's fierce assault, she found satisfaction and completed her transformation from a virtuous empress to a lustful one.

"Hahaha... Come on! Again... My beauty! Hmm..." King Zhou laughed wildly, and Empress Jiang felt as if she were on a small boat tossed about in a storm. Her delicate body swayed rapidly, and her high breasts were squeezed out of shape by a pair of hard hands. Her tender skin was covered with rough teeth marks and finger marks.

King Zhou vented his desires, and the woman beneath him no longer reacted, except for occasional moans and cries that rose and fell with the speed of his movements. One word—"Awesome!" Even with the licentious Consort Shu, he had never experienced such satisfaction. As he moved, a thought suddenly occurred to him: "From now on, among the concubines who serve me in bed, she should still be ranked first!"

"Damn! I didn't realize this Empress Jiang was so extraordinary. She only learned a few moves from me, and she subdued King Zhou in one night..." Ge Xiaoyao looked at the boundless, sensual scene, far more exciting than any Japanese AV, and chuckled inwardly before slowly walking away.

King Zhou and Empress Jiang, lost in their blissful ecstasy, were completely unaware that their private affair had been witnessed from beginning to end. In their lustful frenzy, they paid no heed. A flower petal outside the tent swayed slightly, as if blown by the wind, or perhaps touched by something.

Chapter 27 Ice Maiden (Part 2)

Chaoge City, Imperial Palace, Consort De's Palace.

A scene of pure white greeted his eyes, like a silver-clad world, as white as jade and as white as snow, spotless and immaculate. It was clear what a pure, noble, and aloof beauty the owner of this place must be.

Ge Xiaoyao shuddered violently and involuntarily swallowed. Right before him, she slowly removed her clothes, lifted her jade-like legs, and stepped into the bathtub filled with snow lotus petals.

What stunned Ge Xiaoyao wasn't her naked body. He had seen countless naked women. In his modern days, as a physician specializing in aphrodisiacs and yin-tonifying therapies, he had seen the naked bodies of noblewomen and prostitutes. After arriving in the Great Shang Dynasty, he had seen Consort Shuyun, Yanqiang, Empress Jiang, the concubines in the Cold Palace, and the female slaves from the Eastern Barbarians—each one of them could be described as a beauty.

But at this moment, if those were considered beauties, then the woman before him defied description. If he had to describe her, he could only add two words before it—"super."

Her waist was extremely slender, perfectly rounded, and supple; from her waist down, it gradually widened, narrowing at her hips, and then down to her ankles, forming two beautiful, perfectly proportioned legs. There wasn't a single gap between her legs when they were together; the roundness, fullness, and length of her legs were truly indescribable.

The women Ge Xiaoyao had previously seen—Chu Yu, Shufei Yanyun, Yanqiang, and others—were all undeniably beautiful. But when Ge Xiaoyao saw this pair of women, they all paled in comparison. These breasts were translucent, round, and perky, topped with two small, red bean-like nipples, indescribably graceful. Looking at them, one couldn't even muster any lust. Their beauty was utterly devoid of any earthly concerns.

In fact, the entire female body gave off that feeling—like it was carved from jade, like it was sculpted from ivory, radiating a supremely beautiful and sacred light, inspiring only reverence, not desecration.

Ge Xiaoyao stood there, stunned, for a long time. The unimaginable beauty of this female body shattered his soul like a thunderbolt, leaving his mind completely blank.

Perhaps it was the proximity to the water that brought her joy, or perhaps it was satisfaction with the maid's performance, but she suddenly turned around, smiling radiantly. The icy beauty vanished instantly, replaced by a captivating allure.

Ge Xiaoyao gasped, almost crying out in astonishment. If he had been stunned by her beauty just moments before, he was now breathless; in fact, he had forgotten to breathe. Everything in his vision blurred, except for a beautifully curved, snow-white arm and a vibrant red birthmark on it!

"There is a jade maiden in the palace; at the age of three, cinnabar from the South China Sea is planted on her arm as a birthmark of chastity; women do not have this." What shocked Ge Xiaoyao most was this cinnabar birthmark. He had never imagined that the Consort De, after three years in the palace, would remain a virgin!

After a long while, the sound of water finally roused Ge Xiaoyao. He let out a long breath, and his mind gradually calmed down. In the warm bath, Consort De cupped her delicate hands, like bamboo shoots, in the water, bathing her snow-white skin.

"Though King Zhou is tyrannical, he must have been intimidated by her fairy-like body and dared not easily defile her, thus preserving her virginity!" Thinking this, Ge Xiaoyao couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. "Heh heh, but his slight kindness has benefited me, Ge Xiaoyao..."

In fact, he had already devised a plan when King Zhou at the Star-Picking Tower ordered him to change the icy beauty's nature. Later, after deliberately testing Consort De, his plan became even more refined. What finally made her decide was King Zhou's passionate encounter with Queen Jiang.

Regarding his understanding of women, Ge Xiaoyao was confident he was second to none in the Shang Dynasty. To transform this icy, pure maiden into a fiery, seductive woman, the first thing to do was... this was also a common trick used in brothels, massage parlors, and other establishments since ancient times to force women into prostitution. However, in the Shang Dynasty's harem, and with Consort De, the methods had to be more subtle.

"Your Majesty, I, Ge Xiaoyao, am sorry!" Ge Xiaoyao muttered insincerely to the heavens, then lewdly pounced on Consort De, who was about to step out of the bath.

Caught off guard, Consort De suddenly felt a gust of wind blow towards her, letting out a scream as she fell back into the bath. Before her scream could even escape her lips, she felt something soft and fleshy pressing heavily against them.

"Hmm..." Consort De felt herself being tightly embraced, but there was no one in front of her. She tried to struggle but couldn't, tried to cry for help but couldn't make a sound. She was filled with fear and panic, sweating profusely.

In her desperation, she felt a large hand caress her firm breasts, while another hand reached towards her genitals. "Oh..." Her brows furrowed sharply, and she spread her hands to block the two wicked hands, but what she touched was her own skin.

Perhaps startled by the splashing water inside, two maids who had been serving outside rushed in, only to witness this lewd scene. The usually pure and innocent Consort De lay naked in the bathtub, her face flushed with sweat, her eyes tightly closed, moaning softly in her sleep. Her shapely, rosy body writhed restlessly in the water. Most dizzyingly, one hand was kneading her left breast, while the other was submerged. Through the clear water, one could clearly see the dark forest of hair between her long, shapely legs, with only a throbbing wrist visible.

The two maids, seeing this erotic scene, blushed crimson with shame, covered their faces, and ran out.

Consort De, meanwhile, inwardly groaned. Had she been possessed? Judging from her physical sensations, someone was assaulting her, yet that person was invisible; she couldn't see their face or hear any sound. "Alas... how could this happen?" Thinking of how utterly lewd he must have looked just now, and how the maids must have thought of him, he was doomed! ... A wave of sorrow washed over him, and two streams of tears rolled down his delicate face, soaking into the bathtub...

"I am truly sorry, Consort De. If I hadn't done this, innocent women like you would have suffered far more humiliation and disgrace! Now that you have married King Zhou, it is only right and proper for you to have sexual relations as a wife. I am doing this for your future!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself.

However, when he saw Consort De's two lines of tears, a feeling of pity welled up in his heart, and he asked himself, "Ge Xiaoyao, is what you're doing right? Is it worth letting one, two... or more women use their lust to seduce King Zhou for the sake of your girlfriend?"

When Chu Yu's beautiful face with tears in her eyes flashed through his mind again, he gritted his teeth and thought fiercely, "Damn it! What is love in this world that makes people willing to die for each other? I'm not afraid of being born, so why should I be afraid of becoming a villain and a lecher?!"

"Haha, this is truly heaven's help! Maids, come and see, come and see... Your usually pure and virtuous Consort De is actually such a lewd person!" Ge Xiaoyao couldn't help but laugh wildly to himself.

He picked up Consort De from beneath him and spread her limbs, pressing her onto the brocade bed. Her whole body was exposed, her rounded shoulders, slender waist, and flat abdomen were all on full display. Her fair breasts were exposed, and with her hands pinned behind her back, her pectoral muscles bulged even more, her firm breasts rising and falling with her breath. The two snow-white mounds with two red nipples were incredibly beautiful.

Ge Xiaoyao used his feet to spread her jade legs wide, grabbed her hands and moved them down to her genitals. With her lips no longer bound, Consort De let out a muffled "hmm."

Her face was as red as a ripe apple, and tears welled up in her beautiful eyes. She couldn't control her hands as they moved towards that untouched virginity, nor could she control her legs as they opened, twisted, and entwined with that invisible yet tangible body. Because of the embarrassment she had

just experienced, she dared not cry out loud again. After all, to be seen so lewd by a maid, even if she had acted out of helplessness, how could she explain herself? Besides, even if she could explain, what face would she have to utter this unspeakable and strange thing?

"Ah..."

Chapter 28 Rape (Part 1)

The water temperature in the bath gradually rose. Ge Xiaoyao shamelessly and wantonly teased the stunningly beautiful Consort De. His hands, mouth, feet, and entire body lay on her soft, smooth body, feeling the surging waves of her breasts and the soaking hot spring between her legs.

Special women are still women, and they all share a common aspect of womanly character: when accepting new things, they always resist first, then submit, then gladly accept, and finally integrate them into their lives.

Consort De was no exception.

By this time, she had moved beyond the initial struggle and the initial shame and humiliation, beginning to accept the gradually emerging pleasure and comfort. She even felt as if she were dreaming, like the kind of dream she often had before.

She was running naked across an empty field, chased by several men who cheered. Finally, unable to run any longer, she collapsed to the ground, where they grabbed her, pinned her down, spread her limbs, and raped her…

Strangely, she never woke up from this dream; instead, she felt a strange sensation, to the point that if she didn't have such a dream for a few days, she would feel somewhat lost. On the surface, she was indifferent to everyone, but in reality, she longed for that scene in her dream. However, as a noble consort, everyone she met treated her with utmost respect, not daring to breathe loudly in her presence. Even King Zhou was obedient to her, always smiling, and dared not use force.

Little did they know how much she longed for a strong, dreamlike man to roughly pin her to the ground, tear her clothes, and then, with a savage grin, wantonly ravage her exquisite body. Of course, this was the deepest secret hidden in her heart; no one but her knew.

"Mmm...mmm..." Consort De's joyful moans once again confirmed Ge Xiaoyao's judgment; this icy beauty was actually an unlit volcano.

"Since that's the case, then this young master will send you to your first time in the clouds!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, roughly turning the already intoxicated Consort De over, revealing a large expanse of snow-white back muscle before him.

What an alluring woman's back! Soft, elastic skin extended along the most beautiful curves, pebble-like shoulders, a straight and slender spine, and large expanses of pinkish-white skin extending to the two mounds that suddenly rose at the waist.

As she entered… Consort De let out a groan of both pain and unparalleled pleasure. A stream of crimson flowed between her snow-white legs, quickly spreading and staining the entire bathtub a seductive color.

…

Ge Xiaoyao quietly left, leaving only Consort De in the inner chamber of the West Palace, still intoxicated by the intense pleasure. She finally experienced the real, unbridled joy and release that her dreams had never given her. Although there was some pain, that pain now seemed to have become a sweet memory. She stretched out her limbs, letting her undulating curves perfectly displayed in the water. She groaned, her beautiful eyes tightly closed, her fragrant tongue licking her red lips, trying to retain the wonderful feeling of that strong body squeezing her…

Back in the side hall of the Cold Palace, Ge Xiaoyao was just about to go to sleep when he heard a soft knock on the door. “Who is it?”

Yan Qiang, wearing a snow-white palace robe, stood abruptly outside the door.

“How did you get out?” Ge Xiaoyao exclaimed in surprise, then quickly glanced outside. Seeing that no one had noticed, he pulled her inside.

In the lamplight, Yan Qiang's alluring face appeared even more hazy, but her complexion was sallow and her lips pale.

"What happened?" Ge Xiaoyao asked, frowning.

"Zi Lian... is dead..." Yan Qiang's delicate shoulders trembled as she threw herself into Ge Xiaoyao's arms, two streams of tears flowing down her face as she sobbed softly. "Doctor Ge, Xiaoyao, take me away... I can't take it anymore!"

Ge Xiaoyao knew that Zi Lian, whom Yan Qiang spoke of, was her close friend and fellow concubine in the Cold Palace, so he asked, "How did she die?"

Yan Qiang sobbed uncontrollably, "She was killed by that Yan Yun!"

"What happened?" Ge Xiaoyao helped her sit on the bed, gently wiping away her tears, and asked with a frown. He knew that in the Heavenly Bathing Spring, Consort Shu, Yan Yun, had been tortured to the point of near death.

Yanqiang lowered her head, choking back sobs, and said, "Yanyun was injured somewhere, and when she came to the Leopard House, she took her anger out on us. Zilian was sent to the human-dog kennel by her..."

"Damn it!" Ge Xiaoyao roared, "This Consort Shu is truly too lewd and vicious!"

Yanqiang said, "Brother Shi, please take me away. I really can't stand it here anymore!"

Ge Xiaoyao thought for a moment and said, "Yanqiang, it's not that I don't want to take you, but I really can't. This Consort Shu is so lewd and vicious; who knows how many innocent women she will harm in the future? We must find a way to get rid of her!"

“However…” Yan Qiang said, “As the King’s favorite concubine, what can we do to her?”

Ge Xiaoyao chuckled, “There are ways, but it will take some time!” After a pause, he added, “By the way, how is your practice of the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique that I taught you?”

Yan Qiang wiped away her tears before replying, “I’ve mastered it. This time, it was all thanks to the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique that I was able to withstand the three inhuman tortures in the Leopard Chamber, and my body recovered quickly. Tonight, I took advantage of the guards thinking I was injured and unable to move, so I went out to play and slipped away!”

“Oh?” Ge Xiaoyao hadn’t expected the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique to be so miraculous, able to resist the three inhuman tortures in the Leopard Chamber. He was secretly delighted, it seemed his plan to render King Zhou impotent could be successfully implemented.

Yan Qiang, of course, didn’t know what Ge Xiaoyao was thinking. She thought he didn’t believe her, and hurriedly said, “Doctor Ge, don’t you believe me? Then we can… we can… try!” As she spoke, she slowly loosened her belt.

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said, "No!" Through the loosened sash of Yan Qiang's clothes, the glimpse of her snow-white skin was enough to make any man breathless. Ge Xiaoyao knew that once she mastered the Nine Yin Yang-Gathering Skill, every part of her body and every movement would have a fatal attraction for men. Now her skill was not yet mature, but once it was, even just hearing her voice would be enough to arouse men's desires. However, her temperament would change drastically at that time…

Ge Xiaoyao took a deep breath, suppressing the lust rising from the bottom of his heart, and said, “Yanqiang, there’s no need to try. I already know. But you still need to practice diligently and master the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique as soon as possible. Then you can defeat Consort Shu and avenge your humiliation…”

Yanqiang nodded slowly after hearing this and said, “I will listen to the doctor!”

Ge Xiaoyao said again, “It is not advisable to stay here for long. You should go back quickly to avoid being discovered by the guards and alerting them!” Yanqiang

agreed and stood up, saying, “Doctor, when will we be able to defeat that lewd and poisonous Yanyun and free us sisters?”

Ge Xiaoyao pondered for a moment and said resolutely, “The day you master the Nine Yin Yang Gathering Technique will be the day you avenge your humiliation!” After

seeing Yanqiang off, Ge Xiaoyao thought about what had happened today in detail. Although Consort Shu was lewd and poisonous, as long as she did not harm the lustful weapon he had cultivated—Yanqiang—she would be fine. Moreover, with her around, King Zhou's energy would gradually diminish. This would increase his chances of success.

"Damn it! If it weren't for the inevitability of fate, I would have stabbed that damned King Zhou to death long ago! Why would I need to go through all this trouble now?" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself, feeling indignant. He suddenly remembered that he had been in the palace for over a month and wondered how Jiang Ziya and Madam Ma were doing. "Looks like I should go back and see them, and maybe ask them for some more magical techniques!"

Chapter 29 Rape (Part 2)

After Ge Xiaoyao left, Consort De remained in a daze, constantly imagining the unseen yet undeniably real, strong body she wore in the bath, his movements, his posture, and even the occasional, intensely pleasurable gasps. She hadn't even realized what was happening until King Zhou quietly arrived at the West Palace.

After Ge Xiaoyao raped Consort De, he gave her immense satisfaction, and at the same time, he discovered a great secret about her nature. The next day, he found King Zhou and invited the king to the West Palace to retire.

"Doctor Ge is truly a miraculous healer! He cured my ice queen so quickly?" King Zhou exclaimed in delight.

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, what merit do I possess to receive such praise? Actually..."

King Zhou hurriedly stood up from his throne, "Actually what?"

Ge Xiaoyao then slowly said, "Actually, Consort De is not ill; she simply has a somewhat eccentric temperament..."

King Zhou hurriedly asked, "Strange? What should we do then?"

Ge Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "That's alright. Your Majesty only needs to go along with her wishes and put on a show!"

King Zhou immediately became interested and said with a smile, "What kind of show? Physician, please tell me slowly!" He then ordered the guards, "Someone! Give Physician Ge a seat and some tea!"

From then on, Ge Xiaoyao enjoyed a treatment that even high-ranking officials in the royal palace did not receive. In the golden hall, King Zhou personally offered him a seat and tea. He sat upright in a golden-faced soft brocade chair, drinking the finest tribute tea, and then explained to King Zhou how to put on a show, bit by bit.

"Excellent! Physician, your plan is truly brilliant!" After hearing Ge Xiaoyao's description, King Zhou clapped his hands and laughed heartily, but then asked doubtfully, "Physician, will this method really work?"

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly replied, "My heart is set on bringing Your Majesty ultimate pleasure; how could I dare to deceive Your Majesty? I believe Your Majesty is wise, powerful, and decisive, and will naturally understand my good intentions. Here, I, Ge Xiaoyao, dare to guarantee with my head that if there is even the slightest mistake, Your Majesty may kill or punish me as you see fit!"

King Zhou laughed, "It's not that serious, Physician Ge. I can't wait to be the protagonist of this play, so please take me there quickly!"

Ge Xiaoyao then said, "Yesterday, Consort Shu specifically asked me to convey a message, saying that she is ill and begs Your Majesty to exempt her from her duties of serving the Emperor in the near future!"

King Zhou laughed, "Of course, I can also spend more time with the Emperor and the other concubines recently, hahaha..."

So he set up his carriage, with Ge Xiaoyao leading the way, and King Zhou following behind towards the West Palace. As they approached the Eastern Palace, Ge Xiaoyao signaled for King Zhou's carriage to stop, inviting only the king to proceed. King Zhou, puzzled, asked, "Does Your Majesty require me to sneak into the Eastern Palace?"

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and replied, "Didn't Your Majesty once grant me permission that anyone entering or leaving the Eastern Palace, including Your Majesty, must obtain my consent?"

King Zhou was speechless, but his expression darkened. Since ascending the throne, no minister had ever dared to speak to him like this, or threaten him with his decrees.

Seeing King Zhou's unpleasant expression, Ge Xiaoyao remained calm and whispered, "Your Majesty, you may not know, but there's a saying among the common people: 'A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as a stolen affair, a stolen affair is not as good as rape, and rape is not as good as unattainable rape…' Your Majesty's journey here will

involve both theft and rape; wouldn't that be even more enjoyable?" King Zhou's face brightened, and he laughed heartily, "As the physician says, I'll stop the carriage and dismount

. I, too, will indulge in the elegant pleasures of stealing fragrance and jade, haha…" He then alighted from his royal carriage, changed into a guard's uniform, and accompanied Ge Xiaoyao to the West Palace.

Because King Zhou had previously decreed that Ge Xiaoyao could freely enter the West Palace, everyone there treated him with utmost respect and dared not obstruct him. Of course, no one noticed that the ordinary guard beside him was none other than the most powerful man in the Shang Dynasty—King Zhou.

The West Palace was far less ornate than Consort Shu's East Palace, let alone Empress Jiang's Central Palace. Even in its simple yet grand halls, everything was decorated in plain white, with hardly a trace of red or green.

Gray and black, white and gray, are the dominant colors here, just like its owner, proud and aloof, with an ethereal beauty.

The only scenic spot in this Western Palace is a large lake, personally overseen by Consort De, which covers several acres and is several meters deep, stocked with a large number of golden-tailed carp. In her leisure time, Consort De's favorite pastime is fishing by the lake or drifting alone on the lake in a small boat.

Along the lakeside, rows of green willows line the shore, and in the clear blue water, a small green boat slowly cuts through the waves. On the boat, a woman in a palace dress, with graceful posture, is poling along, like a fairy descended from the heavens.

"Ah...good!" King Zhou was already stunned as he gazed at the still blurry figure in the distance. "This woman should only exist in heaven; how often can one hear of such a thing in the mortal world? Physician Ge, I...no...why don't you send someone to summon Consort De to meet me?"

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and shook his head, saying, "Why must Your Majesty do such a thing? A hundred miles of blue waves, empty of people, rowing a small boat alone to meet a beauty, wouldn't that be even more interesting?"

King Zhou pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "That would be even better, but I can row a boat..."

Ge Xiaoyao smiled and pointed to a small boat moored on the shore, saying, "This humble subject was born in a water town and is quite familiar with life on the water. If Your Majesty trusts me, Ge Xiaoyao, then let this humble subject row the boat for Your Majesty!"

King Zhou laughed, "Of course I trust the physician, that's wonderful! Then please, physician, row the boat over quickly!"

The two then boarded the boat, and Ge Xiaoyao rowed the oar, the small boat drifting with the wind straight towards the boat where the beauty was in the center of the lake.

At this moment, Consort De had already reached the small island in the middle of the lake. It turned out that when Consort De built the large lake, she had specifically constructed this small island in its center, complete with halls, pavilions, and a constant supply of water, rice, and other necessities, so she could rest in peace.

However, Consort De's mood was quite different now. Since the island was deserted, she would no longer experience the awkwardness she felt in the inner palace last time. Upon reaching the island, she eagerly went into the small building.

Inside, all her daily necessities were readily available, all for her personal use. Consort De lay back on the couch, her hand caressing her breasts, her eyes lightly closed. The pleasurable sensations from the bath flashed through her mind.

Her left hand slowly unfastened the light gauze of her bodice, gently stroking and kneading her firm breasts. "Mmm..." A strange tingling sensation spread from her nipples throughout her body, and she couldn't help but let out a moan.

Gradually, her upper garments had slipped down to her waist, and her skirt had been lifted high by herself. On the embroidered bed, she rolled and trembled alone. Since there was no one else there, her moans were ten times louder than the day before, her joyful and seductive cries reaching the ears of King Zhou, who was quietly approaching the island in the middle of the lake.

Just hearing these lewd and melodious moans, King Zhou could no longer restrain himself and repeatedly whispered to Ge Xiaoyao to speed up the boat.

"Damn! Looks like I came to the right place today, but… this show seems to be a different story altogether, far less exciting than what I planned!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself.

According to his plan, King Zhou and Consort De's encounter should take place in a side hall of the West Palace. Consort De was sitting by the railing, gazing absently into the distance. King Zhou, dressed as a guard, would approach her quietly from behind, reaching her side without her noticing, and then suddenly lift her up.

Chapter 30 Rape (Part 2)

Amidst Consort De's screams, King Zhou roughly stripped off her clothes and then forced himself on her.

The small boat gently approached the shore. King Zhou, without bothering to say hello, jumped off the boat and crouched down, quickly running towards the small building.

"Damn! This King Zhou is really lustful!" Ge Xiaoyao sneered, slowly rowing the small boat away. He had no intention of seeing how King Zhou raped Consort De, who was masturbating. Otherwise, he could simply use Jiang Ziya's invisibility spell to witness a fierce rape scene.

"Hmm...hmm...ah!" Consort De, half-naked, kept making lewd moans, arousing King Zhou's unbearable desire. He ran while taking off his clothes, and before Consort De could react, his strong body was already on top of her half-naked body.

"Aww..." King Zhou cried out in pleasure, immediately feeling the two firm nipples on her soft mounds pressed against her chest. "Mmm..." Then came an extremely lewd panting. His two elephant legs were entwined with Consort De's delicate and smooth body. Putting aside everything else, the wonderful feeling brought by the contact of their skin alone was enough to drive the King Zhou, who had been with hundreds of women, mad. Consort

De was caught off guard. She was so frightened by the burly man who pounced on her and pressed her down that she was completely at a loss, even forgetting to cry for help. However, even if she wasn't frightened, she couldn't possibly cry for help, because according to Ge Xiaoyao's direction, the King Zhou immediately and roughly sealed her cherry lips with his mouth.

By the time she managed to calm herself, it was too late. The man on top of her had already stripped naked, and a burning hot penis was pressed against her genitals. Worst of all, her genitals were wide open from the previous pleasure; a slight thrust would be all it took.

However, the man seemed unwilling to enter her quickly, instead using his large mouth to lick, kiss, and bite her tender skin, making it impossible for her to breathe or think properly. She recalled the passionate encounter in the pool of desire that night, so similar to today.

The day she had longed for had finally arrived. She finally let out a cry of "Help!", but the sound was so faint it couldn't even reach the window; only the man on top of her could hear it, which fueled his violent lust far more than any lewd moan.

"Mmm...help...mmm...help...mmm..." Consort De moaned, her pink arms tightly embracing the man's strong shoulders and back, enduring the increasingly intense actions of his mouth. Her pink buttocks suddenly rose high, almost colliding with his long spear.

King Zhou chuckled lewdly, thinking to himself, "Physician Ge is truly a divine physician; I'll definitely reward him handsomely when we get back! Hmm, this Consort De is indeed quite alluring, but...I won't rape you, let's see what you do then?"

King Zhou's playful nature suddenly arose, and he released Consort De's legs, which had been tightly spread apart, allowing them to close, but his hands and lips remained unyielding, continuing his brutal assault.

Consort De, frustrated by her failed attempt to feign resistance, grew increasingly angry. "What's wrong with this man? He can't even rape? Is he all show and no substance, only good for superficial acts and unable to go deeper?"

"Mmm...mmm, mmm, mmm..." Her long hair was completely disheveled, cascading over her forehead and back, her expression hazy and alluring. She swayed from side to side, responding to King Zhou's kisses and bites. Her long, slender, snow-white legs were spread wide, tightly wrapped around King Zhou's thick legs, her plump buttocks and jade thighs moving incessantly, as if saying, "Come on!...I want it, I want it..."

"You little slut, if I had known this would happen, why would I have waited three years?" King Zhou thought to himself. "I never expected that you, this pure and innocent fairy, would be even more lewd than Consort Shu. Haha, today I'm not going to take the bait, I'll let you indulge in your wantonness to the fullest!"

...

"Congratulations, Your Majesty! Congratulations, Your Majesty..." Ge Xiaoyao knelt on the shore of the great lake, shouting loudly.

King Zhou laughed heartily, saying, "Physician Ge, please don't stand on ceremony... If it weren't for you, how could Consort De and I be so affectionate? You've truly done a great service!"

"It's all my duty!" Ge Xiaoyao replied, but then looked up at Consort De. She saw that Consort De's previously icy demeanor had vanished, replaced by a smile as if refreshed by spring. However, as their eyes met, Consort De shivered as if struck by lightning. King Zhou noticed and quickly asked, "My beauty, what's wrong?"

Consort De lowered her face and said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty, but I'm a little cold!"

King Zhou embraced her slender waist, saying with pity, "Yes, it's windy here. I'll escort you back to the palace first!"

Ge Xiaoyao quickly replied, "Respectfully seeing off Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

King Zhou frowned and said, "Send off what?! You, my brother, and Consort De will return to the inner palace of the West Palace. I have an imperial decree to announce!"

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly agreed, "Yes!" and followed the two of them towards the inner palace of the West Palace.

Along the way, Consort De glanced back at Ge Xiaoyao, seemingly casually, her gaze revealing a subtle tenderness that others could hardly detect.

"Damn! They say women have the strongest sixth sense. Could she have sensed what happened in the bath that night?" Ge Xiaoyao wondered to himself, then carefully considered Consort De's expression, but it didn't seem likely. "Sigh, never mind, maybe it's just that I'm young and handsome, more attractive than King Zhou!"

In Chaoge City, the Imperial Palace, Consort De's inner palace.

King Zhou wielded his brush, writing his imperial edict on a pale pink silk scroll.

With a splash of ink, Ge Xiaoyao officially assumed the position of Grand Eunuch of the Inner Palace. King Zhou only entrusted him with two tasks: first, to arrange his concubines for his nights; second, to oversee the construction of the Heavenly Palace.

The second task was something King Zhou had promised Ge Xiaoyao beforehand, while the first was a spur-of-the-moment decision with two layers of meaning: to have Ge Xiaoyao arrange his concubines for his nights, ensuring his pleasure every night. Moreover, in his view, Ge Xiaoyao, compared to those rigid palace attendants trained by court officials, would certainly do this according to his wishes. In other words, from now on, he could sleep with whichever concubine he wanted, or have which concubine serve him, without being restricted by ancestral rules, and Ge Xiaoyao would definitely help him find a way to cover it up.

From then on, Ge Xiaoyao truly became busy. Building the Heavenly Palace was easy to say but difficult to do. Moving mountains and borrowing scenery alone took a lot of effort, and as for the South China Sea pearls, after searching through the private collections of the South China Sea pearl divers, only a hundred or so were obtained. However, since the most important female slaves were all quite beautiful, the Heavenly Palace progressed relatively smoothly overall. King Zhou came to inspect it several times, arriving in high spirits and leaving satisfied, praising Ge Xiaoyao highly.

Ge Xiaoyao knew that King Zhou's praise wasn't just because of his excellent work in building the Heavenly Palace, but more importantly, because although he was responsible for arranging the concubines to serve King Zhou, he seemed to have never actually notified any concubine to prepare for the night, except to instruct the historians to write records according to King Zhou's requirements.

However, he knew King Zhou's nightly whereabouts perfectly. For more than a month, King Zhou had been spending his days with Queen Jiang and Consort De of the Western Palace, having a great time, but he hadn't visited Consort Shu at all.

He thought to himself that Consort Shu had been holding back for more than a month, and now she must be impatient for a man to be in her bed!

Another thing made him even happier, because he discovered that King Zhou was showing symptoms of kidney deficiency and had recently been relying on his Ecstasy Pill to achieve pleasure every night. It seemed that the day when he could cure King Zhou of impotence was not far off.

"Damn! This aphrodisiac deliberately made someone impotent... Haha, I guess I'm the first person in the world to do this!" On the night of the full moon, Ge Xiaoyao sat in his newly built Hall of Bliss, enjoying wine and admiring the moon, thinking to himself with satisfaction.

As the full moon rose higher, Ge Xiaoyao was already a little drunk. Looking at the Hall of Bliss, which could be described as a "palace," he pointed to the sky and cursed, "Damn! Do you think I, Ge Xiaoyao, am so easy to flatter? My staying in the palace is really not for the sake of wine..."

This Hall of Bliss was originally specially approved by King Zhou, but the palace officials did not take Ge Xiaoyao, a mere palace physician, seriously, so the progress was very slow. It wasn't until he took charge of the Heavenly Palace that they realized he was King Zhou's true "favorite," and then they all fawned over him. The Hall of Bliss was not only built quickly, but it was also twice the size of what was originally designed. However, these people soon discovered that this did not earn Ge Xiaoyao's gratitude. On the contrary, he became even colder towards them, and his words and actions were filled with hidden contempt and disdain!

"Clang...clang...clang," a gentle knock sounded on the door.

"Haha, it must be that lewd Consort Yanyun who couldn't resist coming to see me!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself with a laugh, and staggered to open the door.

However, when he opened the door, he didn't see Yanyun's lewd smile, but only a petite maid with a mournful face standing outside.

Chapter 31 Ghostly Shadow (Part 1)

The little maid saw Ge Xiaoyao and knelt down with a thud, crying and pleading, "Doctor, please save Consort Zhuang!"

"Consort Zhuang?" Ge Xiaoyao tried hard to search his memory for this name, and finally vaguely remembered seeing a petite and exquisite woman at King Zhou's banquet at the Star-Picking Tower, who seemed to be called Consort Zhuang.

"Please get up quickly, let's talk inside!" Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said.

The young maidservant did not rise, remaining kneeling on the ground, weeping and pleading, "Physician Ge, this servant dares not enter the physician's residence without permission. Please, Physician, travel east to the Southern Palace to examine Consort Zhuang!" "

Oh!" Ge Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Alright then, please rise and speak. What ailment does Consort Zhuang suffer from?"

The young maidservant finally got up from the ground, but instead of brushing the dust off her clothes, she continued to weep, saying, "This servant dares not say, the physician will know when he arrives at the Southern Palace!"

"Damn it! It's all because of these damned palace rules! What have they done to this perfectly good young girl! She doesn't even dare to speak!" Ge Xiaoyao thought indignantly, then said after a moment's thought, "Alright then, wait here for a moment, I'll get the medicine pouch and come right away!"

The young maidservant said, "Thank you, physician."

Ge Xiaoyao returned to the Hall of Bliss to retrieve the medicine pouch. He didn't know what illness Consort Zhuang had, so he haphazardly stuffed some medicine into the pouch and went out to go to the Southern Palace with the young maidservant. King

Zhou's harem consisted of five palaces, six courtyards, and seventy-two beauties. The five palaces were the Central Palace, East Palace, West Palace, Southern Palace, and North Palace. The Central Palace was the Empress, and the other four palaces were for imperial concubines. As for the six courtyards and seventy-two beauties, they were distributed in the Star-Picking Tower, the Heavenly Palace's Listening to Desire Spring, and the Imperial Music Garden, available for King Zhou's pleasure at any time.

Ge Xiaoyao hadn't been in the palace long, and his interactions had limited him to the Eastern Palace Consort Shu, the Central Palace Empress Jiang, the Western Palace Consort De, and some lower-ranking concubines and maids. He was truly unfamiliar with the Southern Palace Consort.

The Southern Palace was actually the farthest consort's palace from the Star-Picking Tower and King Zhou's Palace. Due to its remote location, King Zhou rarely visited, and in recent months, the system of serving the emperor in bed hadn't been properly enforced, so the Southern Palace Consort was mostly alone in her chambers.

Led by a young maid, Ge Xiaoyao arrived at the Southern Palace. Upon entering, a chilling wind swept over him, sending shivers down his spine. Having long been involved in matters of love and sex, Ge Xiaoyao knew that places where women resided were often imbued with yin energy, especially in the harem where women outnumbered men, and the overwhelming yin energy suppressed the yang energy, resulting in a dark, damp, and gloomy atmosphere. He was not uncommon with such occurrences.

However, this time was different. Ge Xiaoyao felt the yin energy in the Southern Palace seemed even stronger. Looking around, he suddenly understood. It turned out that, whether due to Consort Zhuang's preference or some other reason, a large number of locust trees had been planted in the Southern Palace. Now, with summer approaching, the lush locust trees shaded most of the palace.

The locust tree, a symbol of both wood and ghost, was believed to attract yin energy and spirits, and living there for a long time would inevitably lead to illness.

Ge Xiaoyao noticed the young maid's thin and weak frame, seemingly due to malnutrition and overwork, but actually due to living in a yin place for so long.

"But what illness does Consort Zhuang have? If it's a ghostly illness, a shaman's ritual is needed; I can't help her!" Ge Xiaoyao thought to himself as he followed the maid into the inner palace.

The yin energy was even stronger inside, and even the lamps were dim and flickering, seemingly about to go out at any moment.

"Are you the only one serving Consort Zhuang here?" Ge Xiaoyao asked, seeing that no one else was in the palace.

The maidservant hurriedly replied, "There are ten of us serving Consort Zhuang here, including myself. It's late now, and they're all asleep. Consort Zhuang doesn't want more people to know about her illness, which is why she sent me to fetch a physician in the dead of night."

"Oh!" Ge Xiaoyao nodded. She understood. In the inner palace, if a noble consort had a secret illness, she generally wouldn't dare to speak out. Once it got out, at best she wouldn't receive King Zhou's favor, at worst she'd be banished to the cold palace. It wasn't that King Zhou disliked his sick consort, but… sigh! Women, they're all like that… so jealous…

"Where is Consort Zhuang now?" Since she was already there, she might as well see Consort Zhuang first, Ge Xiaoyao asked.

"She's in the inner chamber…" The maidservant lifted the bamboo curtain, inviting Ge Xiaoyao inside.

The inner room wasn't very large. Two red gauze lanterns hung in the corners behind the south-facing window, casting a hazy, dreamlike light. A wooden table, bamboo stools, and a large sandalwood bed exuding a delicate fragrance were all visible, but the gauze curtains hung low, concealing the boundless spring scenery within.

"Your Majesty... Physician Ge has arrived!" A young maid stood outside the door, respectfully whispering towards the large bed.

"Oh..." A rustling sound came from inside the curtains, and then a slender, pale hand gently pulled back the curtains, revealing an exquisitely beautiful face.

In Ge Xiaoyao's eyes, it was the face of a classic Chinese beauty: an oval face, willow-leaf eyebrows, a spring-leaf nose, and cherry lips. Aside from a slightly unusual pale complexion, she would definitely attract a hundred percent of attention wherever men were present.

"Please sit, Physician Ge. Xiaoyu, serve tea!" Consort Zhuang smiled wearily, her voice weak yet melodious.

Ge Xiaoyao hurriedly said, "Thank you, Your Highness!" and sat down on the chair, gazing at Consort Zhuang's pale face, silently listening to her breathing. He had initially thought that Consort Zhuang, having lived in the Yin realm for so long and with King Zhou rarely visiting, must be ill from melancholy. However, judging from her complexion and listening to her breath, it seemed there was more to it than that. He was suspicious but refrained from asking, simply sitting quietly and waiting for Consort Zhuang to speak.

After the woman named Xiaoyu served tea, Consort Zhuang said, "Xiaoyu, you may go out now. I need to ask Physician Shi to examine me carefully..."

Xiaoyu agreed and went out. Ge Xiaoyao then said, "I wonder what's wrong with Your Majesty, that you summoned me here so late at night?"

Consort Zhuang smiled and said apologetically, "It was truly unavoidable to disturb the physician so late at night. Please forgive me..."

No man would be unwilling to accept an apology from a woman, especially an apology from a beautiful woman, and especially from a woman who is not only beautiful but also ill. Ge Xiaoyao was no exception. He quickly said, "It is my honor to diagnose and cure Your Majesty's illness. Your Majesty must not feel guilty!"

Consort Zhuang then said, "I've heard that the former palace physician, now the head of the palace, is a divine physician who can diagnose illnesses using only observation and auscultation. I wonder if the physician can diagnose my ailment?"

"Damn it! Who the hell is spreading these rumors? To diagnose a disease just by looking and smelling? That's not a miracle doctor, that's a god! Otherwise, why would we need CT scans, X-rays, and... so much equipment?" Ge Xiaoyao was annoyed and quickly said, "Those are just the nonsense of the palace maids. Your Majesty, please don't believe them. Otherwise, I will have no face to serve the King and Your Majesty in this palace from now on!"

Consort Zhuang sighed weakly and said, "Physician Ge is too modest. Actually, I don't believe there are such extraordinary people in the world either. Physician Ge, if you don't mind, please come forward and treat me."

At this moment, the gauze curtain was completely opened, and Consort Zhuang was lying naked on the brocade bed, her alluring figure completely exposed to Ge Xiaoyao.
