Chapter 461 Getting interested in sex
After a brief exchange with Li Huan, Cheng Jiao secretly compared Madam Mingzhu, Queen Chang and Li Huan.

In the end, I found it difficult to tell which one is better, as each has its own merits.

Madam Mingzhu's elegance and charm, the courtesan's maturity and wildness, Li Huan's thinness and beauty.

Every taste of it is worth savoring.

In other words, the queen tastes really good.

Li Huan's voice became a little hoarse. He was almost unable to hold on after being pushed hard by Cheng Jiao in a short period of time.

"How do you plan to treat the medical family?"

She has not forgotten the conversation she had with Cheng Jiao.

"Where did they settle?"

"According to the spies' report, there is a man in black robes in the posthouse near the palace. He is very powerful."

"Man in black?" Cheng Jiao thought for a moment and it seemed that the only man in black who could travel with Nian Duan was the Six-Fingered Black Knight of the Mohist School.

I didn't expect that after the six-fingered black hero returned to the Mohist school, he went to the medical school. It's interesting.

The Mohist Mechanical City was originally located in the territory of Song State. After Song State was destroyed by Qi State, its territory was divided among Qi, Chu and Wei. Now the Mechanical City is located in the territory of Chu State.

Do you want to take this opportunity to visit the Mechanical City?
Cheng Jiao patted Li Huan's legs gently and fell into deep thought.

Li Huan's eyes were stern as he whispered, "Do you need me to send someone to help you..."

Although Nian Duan is a celestial being, Cheng Jiao is also a celestial being. What's more, with just a quick glance just now, he realized that the woman named Meng Niang has also reached the celestial being. Such a lineup is enough to save the life of Nian Duan, who only has superb medical skills.

"Haha, you should just be honest."

Cheng Jiao slapped Li Huan's buttocks hard, making Li Huan hum in dissatisfaction.

"When do you plan to let Xiong Yuan die?"

"Just die before you leave. He's not a threat."

To him, the threat posed by the Xiang clan was much greater than that of a dying King of Chu.

If it weren't for the purpose of making Changping Jun work honestly in Qin, there would be no intention to touch him.

Unfortunately, most of the Xiang clan members are in the military camp, not in the royal capital.

Otherwise, we can clean them up together.

After half an hour, Meng Niang stretched out her slender jade finger and tapped Huaying.

Huaying, who was having a sweet dream, woke up suddenly, feeling refreshed and energetic, looking at Xuenv Yafei and the other girls.

Suddenly I realized that this was not the place where I played with Cheng Jiao in my dream.

Huaying's mind went blank when she remembered that she seemed to be here to audition to be a dancer.

Damn it, I overslept.

"Huaying, what are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get up!"

Niang Rong held Duan Mu Rong's hand and said, "She might be confused in her sleep. Oh! What a worrying woman."

Niang Rong shook her head, "Sister Rong, don't learn from her. Study medicine well. If you don't know anything, you can ask me!"

Duanmu Rong nodded blankly: "Okay."

After a brief discussion on medical skills, Duanmu Rong discovered that this girl, who was slightly younger than herself, was better at medicine than herself.

I don’t know who is more powerful, her teacher Meng Niang or her master.

After Niangrong's interruption, Huaying was delighted and didn't miss it. God was blessing her!
Li Huan snuggled in Cheng Jiao's arms, looking at Hua Ying who was a little clumsy coming up on stage, and laughed: "How could you be attracted to a girl like her?"

Cheng Jiao said confidently: "This young master has always been attracted by beauty. She is pretty."

"Haha, do you want me to keep all these dancers for your enjoyment?"

Li Huan laughed and said that as long as Cheng Jiao nodded, she would send them to Cheng Jiao.

"Heh, I'm very picky, at least I have to be about the same as you."

Cheng Jiao refused outright. He thought that those dancers’ heavily made-up looks were not as good as Xue Nu Ya Fei’s casual attire, and he didn’t like them.

This is the self-cultivation of a good man.

Huaying danced skillfully on the stage.

She felt a little nervous, wondering if there was a dark horse ahead of her that would surpass her.

Duanmu Rong's eyes lit up. She had never seen such a beautiful dance before. It was obviously much better than the previous dancers.

There was silence on the stage. The dancers held their breath. The laymen watched the excitement while the experts watched the details. Huaying only danced a simple dance, but they understood that she was just here to run with the dancers today. No wonder she dared to sleep at this time. A master is a master.

After seeing the flower shadow dance finished, Li Huan was too lazy to watch any more.

She slowly got up from Cheng Jiao's arms and walked to the railing of the private room.

"That's her, end of today."

Huaying said happily: "Thank you for your appreciation, Queen!"

"Stay by my side from now on."

The dancers were extremely envious. It seemed that the queen did not just randomly find a private court dancer, but seemed to intend to use her. It was not impossible for her to become a high-ranking court dancer.

Duanmu Rong saw Li Huan coming down and whispered, "Niang Rong, I have to go."

Niang Rong said regretfully: "Where do you live? I'll come find you when I have time, and we'll go shopping in the capital."

Duanmu Rong hesitated for a moment and said, "Teacher won't let me tell you, we... we'll meet again if we're lucky."

She also wanted to play with Niang Rong in the royal capital, but unfortunately Senior Liuzhi and the teacher were very low-key. She could naturally sense that it might be dangerous to go out this time, so she could only reluctantly refuse Niang Rong.

Niang Rong snorted, "What do you mean by 'see you again if we're destined to see you'? I think you just don't want to see me. I'm ignoring you!"

Duanmu Rong subconsciously reached out to grab Niang Rong, but failed. She sighed helplessly, walked out of the dance hall, and followed Li Huan. Next to her was Hua Ying, the dancer who had just been accepted by Li Huan.

Huaying meets Duanmu Rong and learns her name through the conversation between Niangrong and Duanmu Rong.

"I'm Huaying, are you Niangrong's friend?"

Duan Mu Rong was stunned: "Friend?"

"Isn't it?" Huaying asked in surprise.

"Maybe..." Duanmu Rong whispered.

If it weren't for what happened just now, she could have admitted it openly.

Now that Niangrong had misunderstood her, it would probably be difficult for them to remain friends.

Huaying laughed and said, "Niangrong is just like that. She laughs today and cries tomorrow. You don't have to mind it."

She didn't know what happened between Niang Rong and Duan Mu Rong, but she could still guess a little.

Li Huan glanced at Huaying and said, "After entering the palace, you must strictly abide by some palace etiquette and cannot speak casually. Do you understand?"

Huaying lowered her head and said, "I understand."

But in her heart she was certain that the queen was just as kind and friendly as the rumors said, and that she actually had the mind to remind her.

Li Huan brought Huaying and Duanmu Rong into the King of Chu's bedroom.

After a while, Nian Duan came out carrying a wooden box.

Li Huan asked softly, "Master Nian Duan, how is the king's illness?"

"The king's condition has been brought under control. It shouldn't recur in a year or two. I have left a few prescriptions. You can use them according to your condition."

"What about in a year or two?"

"We'll talk about it then."

Nian Duan thought to herself that being able to control it for a year or two was already a blessing from heaven. After a year or two, her life span would have come to an end. Unless there was a legendary elixir that could prolong her life, she would have died. Fortunately, she came earlier. If she had come a month or two later, it would not be impossible for the King of Chu to die on the spot if he got a little angry.

Li Huan seemed to be thinking about something, "Huaying, see Master Nian Duan off."

Huaying had been daydreaming and had no idea what the queen was taking her for. When she heard it for the first time, she was a little unresponsive.

"What are you sending... Oh, Master, this way please."

Huaying forced a smile. Wasn't she here to be the queen's court dance teacher? How did she become the queen's maid?

Nian Duan felt a little strange. This person didn't look like a palace maid, but more like a dancer.

Duan Murong whispered, "Sister Huaying, don't be nervous. My teacher is a very nice person."

Huaying said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

Nian Duan nodded slightly and said nothing.

After leaving the palace, Nian Duan held Duan Mu Rong's hand and said, "Rong Er, do you know this Miss Hua Ying?"

Duanmu Rong explained it briefly and Nian Duan understood.

"Let's go. Let's go back to Jinghu Medical Village tomorrow."

Thinking of her new friend Niang Rong, Duanmu Rong subconsciously asked, "So soon?"

Nian Duan suddenly stopped and said, "You seem to want to stay. Is it because of that little girl named Niang Rong?"

"That..." Duanmu Rong said a little disappointedly: "I understand, teacher."

She had to give up her plan to look for Niangrong privately.

Nian Duan said slowly, "As doctors, we will experience the birth, aging, illness and death of countless others throughout our lives. Parting is not something worth being sad about."

She sensed that the Chu Palace was not peaceful. With her years of experience, she knew very well how turbulent the palace would be before a king's death.

Even if the King of Chu suddenly died tomorrow, she would not be surprised.

It is better to disappoint Rong'er than to stay in King Chu and risk life and death.

She had broken through the realm of heaven, but she was not a truly perfect heaven after all.

Inside the palace, Huaying followed Li Huan to a garden.

Huaying hesitated, "Queen, shall we start today?"

She thought Li Huan just wanted to meet her and start dancing lessons in a few days, but she didn't expect that Li Huan took her for a walk in the palace for half a day, and it was already afternoon.

Now coming to this quiet garden again, Huaying felt a little nervous.

Li Huan sipped the fragrant tea, Huaying took a sip and found the tea smell so familiar, just like the Snow-Top Silver Shuttle that Cheng Jiao drank.

"The previous salary was 300 gold coins a year, right?"

Huaying didn't understand why Li Huan mentioned money. Didn't he usually discuss money matters with the palace maid next to him?
"Yes."

"Well, from now on, I will give you a thousand gold coins, but I need you to live in the palace permanently and live in my bedroom. Are you willing?"

"One... one thousand?"

Huaying's heart was trembling a little. With Qingnuo's support, the Zuimeng Pavilion was built with only more than 300 gold coins. It would be good if she could save a hundred or so gold coins in a year.

Not to mention that since Qing Nuo left the capital and went to Xianyang, he might not have more than ten or eight gold coins left in a whole year.

Otherwise, he would not have thought of selling Zuimeng Pavilion and looking for another way to make a living, such as finding a noble family and becoming a dance instructor for the young ladies.

The maid behind Li Huan opened her mouth in disbelief. A thousand gold coins...

Although Li Huan was the queen, the money she had in a year would not exceed two thousand gold coins, and the rest was mostly used for rewards, bribes and the like.

When did the queen become so generous?

"I'm willing, from now on the palace will be... uh." Huaying was surprised by the sudden surprise and almost treated the palace as her own home.

"That's good. Next, you will teach me court dance. I will teach you noble etiquette and some other things. You need to remember them carefully."

"..."

Huaying blinked and thought to herself, what is going on? Is she the teacher or are you the teacher?

As a dancer, she is of course proficient in some etiquette, but she is certainly not as good as the etiquette learned by the queen.

For the sake of a thousand gold coins, Huaying decisively decided to agree. At most, she could just learn more. It is always good to have more skills.

"The Queen has the final say!"

There was a hint of inexplicable smile in Li Huan's eyes. This girl was really kind and trusted people so easily. No wonder Cheng Jiao liked her. She still needed some polishing.

She hoped Cheng Jiao would be satisfied with her gift and give her more spiritual power for cultivation.

After leaving the palace, Cheng Jiao and several women wandered around the royal capital.

Cheng Jiao picked up some gifts and prepared to visit the Six-Fingered Black Knight to see if he could go to the Machinery City and get the Fantasy Sound Box out. It would be such a waste to leave it in the Machinery City to gather dust.

Meng Niang followed behind Cheng Jiao, carrying exquisite gifts, mostly some inexpensive food.

"Sir, where are we going?"

Cheng Jiao smiled and said, "Do you remember the Six-Fingered Black Knight? He is in the Royal Capital Inn now, so it's a good opportunity to meet him."

Niang Rong said gloomily, "What's so good about an old man?"

"Haha, you are still in your prime, not an old man at all. This time you are not only going to see the Six-Fingered Black Knight, but I heard that the head of the medical family, Nian Duan, and her student Duan Murong are also here. If you don't want to go, go back with Meng Niang, Ya Fei, and Xue Nu first."

Niang Rong was stunned: "Sister Rong?"

Ya Fei chuckled and said, "Niang Rong, let's go. I just picked out a dance costume for you. See if it suits you."

"No, I want to go!"

Niang Rong suddenly said, "She was so secretive and didn't tell me where she lived. This time I want to tell her in front of her that I can find her!"

The Snow Girl laughed and said, "Well, let's go visit him together."

Meng Niang looked at Niang Rong who was a little angry, shook her head slightly, but didn't say anything.

Nian Duan, who brought Duanmu Rong back to the inn, had just said a few words to the Six-Fingered Black Knight and was discussing whether to leave at night.

There was a sudden knock on the door, causing Nian Duan to frown.

With her perception, she discovered that outside the door, there was a second-rate master, two first-rate masters, and a master whose strength was unknown but who was at least not weaker than Six Fingers.

Just as Nian Duan was about to warn Liuzhi, a hearty voice rang out.

"Is the giant here?"

Liuzhi was slightly stunned, "Changan Jun Chengjiao? Why is he here?"

Nian Duan breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that he was a friend and not an enemy.

I thought the King of Chu had been killed.

"Rong'er, go and invite the guests in."

Liu Zhi twisted his beard and blinked slightly. Thinking of the letter Yan Dan wrote to him, he couldn't help but sigh.

He could never have imagined that Cheng Jiao would do such a thing.

Yan Dan was sent back to Yan State efficiently, but Yan Dan had not been happy for two days before Qin and Zhao joined forces to take away dozens of cities of Yan State.

The King of Yan was so angry that he put Yan Dan under house arrest. Yan Chunjun took the opportunity to stroll around the country and found that Yan Dan did not behave properly as a hostage in Qin and ran away, which led to Qin and Zhao attacking Yan and losing dozens of cities.

Now his disciple is in a bad situation in Yan State.

Duanmu Rong opened the gate and was about to welcome the guest in when she suddenly saw Niangrong with her hands on her hips and her mouth pouting.

Surprise appeared in his gentle eyes, and he subconsciously reached forward to grab Niangrong's hand: "Niangrong, you're here, come in, come in!"
