People in the Qin Dynasty sought good fortune and avoided misfortune.

Chapter 61, The Tide Demoness: I'll Pamper My Own Man
The moon was bright and the stars were few; a strange noise came from Mingzhu Palace.

"Is it okay? Is it okay?"

"No! No!"

"You failed? I'll teach you to fail! I'll teach you to fail!"

"Oh no, I failed! I failed!"

Xu Qing and Chao Nu Yao's voices rang out inside Mingzhu Palace, and the maids outside the palace blushed with embarrassment.

"This Physician Xu looks very serious, but I never expected him to be like this when it comes to such matters."

"Her wife is the same, how could she be so obsessed with men, she can even say such embarrassing things."

The maid muttered to herself about Xu Qing and Chao Nu Yao, glancing around every now and then to make sure no one noticed what was going on.

The commotion inside the Pearl Palace gradually subsided, and the shaking of the bed stopped.

Xu Qing slumped onto the bed and looked at the Tide Demoness beside him.

At this moment, the glamorous woman's face was flushed, her lips slightly upturned, and her beautiful eyes, hidden beneath a black lace veil, wandered around.

Her long, shapely legs were covered by only one black stocking; the other was nowhere to be seen. The black lace ribbons that usually tied around her thighs were now binding her hands.

Sweat trickled down her fair, smooth skin, soaking the bedding. Clothes lay scattered on the floor, and purple high-heeled boots lay carelessly tossed about.

Xu Qing looked at the still-recovering Chao Nu Yao, put on a white undershirt, got off the bed, and took out a bamboo scroll from the medicine box to read.

Chao Nu Yao snapped out of her daze and looked at Xu Qing, who was leaning over the table reading bamboo slips, a look of doubt flashing in her eyes.

She brought the gauze binding her hands to her mouth, bit it off, and then walked straight behind Xu Qing.

"No wonder our Imperial Physician is so skilled, with the ability to bring the dead back to life. He's staying up all night to read medical books!" Chao Nu Yao teased Xu Qing from behind, hugging him.

Feeling the softness behind him, Xu Qing reached out and grabbed the restless little hands of the Tide Demoness.

"Stop joking. I have a patient recently, and his illness is a bit tricky," Xu Qing said calmly.

The patient he was referring to was none other than the Six-Fingered Black Knight. He originally wanted to obtain a reward through Hu Meiren or Chao Nu Yao so that he could enter the library to find records related to the Soul-Devouring Gu.

But then I thought, the Tide Demoness is not only a master of incense, but also has some knowledge of Gu magic, so maybe she has some clues here.

Looking at Xu Qing's serious face, the Tide Demon licked her lips. She liked Xu Qing so much that she couldn't help but want to ruin his gentlemanly seriousness.

"Really? What kind of patient is it that even the Divine Physician and Imperial Physician have to consult medical books late at night?" The Tide Demoness asked, her hands becoming even more restless.

Xu Qing frowned slightly, then exhaled a breath of stale air and stopped trying to stop the Tide Demoness.

"It's nothing. This patient may have been affected by the Gu magic of the Baiyue people. I have never been exposed to Gu magic before, so I have no way to resolve it. I can only consult medical books," Xu Qing said softly.

Upon hearing the words "Gu Technique," Chao Nu Yao stopped what she was doing and her expression turned serious.

"Gu techniques? You've been in contact with those Jianghu people? They're not exactly benevolent people." Chao Nu Yao removed Xu Qing's hand and instead lay down in his arms.

“I know, but this is the first time I’ve encountered a patient like this. I’m itching to try.” Xu Qing’s face showed a hint of anticipation, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Seeing Xu Qing's appearance, Chao Nu Yao's wariness disappeared, and she revealed a helpless smile.

In the eyes of the trendy woman, Xu Qing had encountered a rare and difficult disease that he had never seen before, which aroused his great interest, so he took on the patient without any regard for the consequences.

Things like this happen all too often to doctors.

For physicians, especially those with highly skilled medical expertise, the most enjoyable thing is to challenge various difficult and complicated diseases. This serves two purposes: firstly, it allows them to verify their medical skills, and secondly, it satisfies their desire for conquest.

"Wait here." The Tide Demon gently touched Xu Qing's face, then got up and walked to the bookshelf next to her.

Xu Qing watched as the swaying, delicate woman walked back and forth in front of the bookshelf, as if searching for something.

Her delicate little feet were slightly raised, and her pink toes touched the ground like fallen red grapes.

Her shapely legs were straightened, and her jet-black hair cascaded down, swaying gently against her fair back. Her slender hands pulled a scroll of bamboo slips from the bookshelf, and she turned to smile slightly at Xu Qing.

The fairy maiden held several bamboo scrolls in her arms, the scrolls piled on top of her two soft, round breasts. The bright moonlight shone on her, her fair skin glowing with a slight blush, like a fairy maiden attending to her lover while holding books.

Xu Qing stared in amazement at the scene, her heart skipping a beat.

This is outrageous! Which cadre could withstand such a test? If he had such a tutor in his previous life, he probably wouldn't have lived past eighteen.

The Fairy Maiden walked up to Xu Qing and, seeing that Xu Qing was still in a state of surprise, smiled even more. She was very satisfied with Xu Qing's reaction, which was the greatest affirmation for her.

"You've come to your senses." The Tide Demoness gently waved the bamboo scroll in front of Xu Qing.

Xu Qing snapped out of her reverie, glanced longingly at the Tide Demoness, and then looked at the five bamboo scrolls placed on the table.

"What is this?" Xu Qing asked.

"Weren't you going to solve your difficult illness? Here is my imperial physician's decree. These bamboo slips are from the Baiyue royal family, and they contain a lot of information about Gu magic."

The trendy fairy tapped Xu Qing's forehead, her eyes full of smiles.

How could Xu Qing's clumsy acting possibly fool her? He suddenly started looking at the bamboo slips in front of her, wasn't he just trying to get her to help him access the library and look up the relevant books?

If she couldn't even see these things, how could she have managed the harem for so many years?

But you have to pamper your own man. It's just reading some bamboo slips about Gu techniques, right?
She has it here, and it's a treasure from the Baiyue royal family, much better than the ones in the library.

In any case, these bamboo slips only contain records and solutions for Gu worms and Gu techniques, but not methods for cultivating or practicing them. She wasn't worried about giving them to Xu Qing to look at.

Seeing the trendy woman's amused smile, Xu Qing felt a hint of embarrassment at being exposed.

"Hmph, your little tricks are no match for me. Since you worked so hard today, I'll reward you with these things. Don't try to outsmart me again next time."

The sassy woman placed one foot on the table, lifted Xu Qing's chin with one hand, and her eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

Xu Qing nodded, secretly delighted.

He had known about the Tide Fairy's personality for a long time through their open and intimate interactions.

He knew that his little tricks couldn't fool Chao Nv Yao, but Chao Nv Yao liked it. She liked this kind of thing, just like she liked bondage.

All I can say is that the Great Shark, who has been suppressed for so long, is really good at playing games. Not only does he have to cuckold Han Wang'an, but he also has to play some different kinds of romantic games with Xu Qing.

"Now you don't need to look through the bamboo slips anymore, there's still plenty of time, isn't there?"

Before Chao Nuyao could finish speaking, Xu Qing grabbed her hand and pulled her into his arms.

Holding the succubus in his arms, Xu Qing walked towards the bed, taking the dark blue lace nightgown with him.

Just as the maid who was keeping watch outside the door was relieved that Xu Qing and her mistress had finished and she could have a peaceful night, another embarrassing sound came from inside the bedroom.

The maid's face instantly fell, and she looked at the bedchamber with tears welling up in her eyes.

Thank you to the Lord of the Era for the 100 Qidian Coins reward.
