People in the Qin Dynasty, entertained during the Warring States period

From being in debt to becoming a creditor, Han Fei felt much better after thinking about it.

……

The next day, Cao Ze moved Xiao Hongyu's jade arm away from his chest and easily got dressed.

This girl is so bold! She not only touched him in bed last night, but she also dared to touch him inappropriately. Does she really think he's a pushover?

Don't you know that he has a history of hitting women?

Cai Die brought in the food and saw Hong Yu fast asleep, and secretly envied her.

I somewhat regret not trying it with Hongyu last night.

Cao Ze was unaware that Cai Die was also starting to make her move.

After he finished eating, he prepared to go find Jade Tiger, the guy with tons of money, to have a chat.

However, as soon as he stepped out of Zilan Pavilion, he saw that Madam Mingzhu's carriage had arrived.

"Sir, the Madam requests your presence at the palace."

Damn it...

Faced with the choice between making money and catching a big shark, Cao Ze chose the latter.

It's not that he doesn't love money, but if the great white shark can't wait, it will swim over and bite him to death.

Although his golden cudgel was a powerful weapon to stabilize the seas, it was no match for the sharp teeth of a great white shark.

Cao Ze entered the palace with ease and arrived at Lady Mingzhu's secret chamber.

Madam Mingzhu was plump and tall, and her fair skin and jade-like face still radiated a bright white glow in the somewhat dim room.

"Sir, my cousin's mansion was robbed last night. Are you aware of this?"

"Of course I know. I was the one who instructed Lin'er to do this..." Cao Ze said respectfully, "I know nothing about this matter. I don't know which villains did it?"

A mocking sneer appeared on Madam Mingzhu's cold and beautiful face.

"My cousin suspects that I betrayed him. Does he really think I can't see through him?"

Cao Ze feigned anger and said, "How could you, Lord Marquis, be so heartless to your wife!"

Lady Mingzhu waved her hand and said, "Enough, let's not talk about this. I summoned you here to have you investigate this matter. This Gu has only been cultivated for a short time, and there is only one offspring Gu inside Tianze's body. The person who stole the mother Gu must have an unusual relationship with Tianze. You can use this to investigate."

She might disregard Bai Yifei, but she wouldn't dare provoke her aunt, who was skilled in both martial arts and tactics.

Cao Ze said, "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely help you find the thief and bring him before you."

Lady Mingzhu sat on the couch, crossed her long legs, and placed her hands elegantly on her knees.

"Come here."

Cao Ze habitually stepped forward.

Lady Mingzhu slightly lifted the pearl-embroidered shoes she was wearing. The shoes were embroidered with exquisite patterns in purple silk thread, making them look extremely beautiful.

"Take it off and use your technique to help me relax."

That's going too far... Cao Ze took off Madam Mingzhu's beautiful shoes, gently removed her white silk stockings, held Madam Mingzhu's curved jade feet, and took a close look.

Her feet were slender and delicate, with her toes tightly pressed together, curving upwards like crescent moons. Her skin was smooth, white, and tender, like it was carved from fine mutton fat jade, its luminous whiteness seemingly capable of shining.

Cao Ze had admired it many times, and each time he was full of praise.

He was certain that Madam Mingzhu had never had her feet bound, yet she possessed such perfect natural feet.

No wonder the practice of foot binding was extremely prevalent in later dynasties, especially the Ming and Qing dynasties.

To raise such beautiful feet, countless innocent girls would have to be sacrificed.

However, compared to the foot-binding practice prevalent among the scholar-official ruling class in the Ming Dynasty, the Qing Dynasty went to extremes, not even sparing the wives and daughters of the working class.

"Is Madam feeling well?"

Madam Mingzhu half-closed her beautiful eyes, feigning sleep, and gave a soft "hmm".

Seemingly realizing that her tone was too seductive, Madam Mingzhu coughed lightly: "Use your heart, use your strength."

"it is good."

Cao Ze continued to massage Madam Mingzhu's feet, his mind preoccupied with the events of the previous night.

I don't know what my brother-in-law will ultimately decide.

Would he have the idea of ​​becoming the crown prince because of his appearance?

Having learned from Zhao Jia's experience, Cao Ze no longer dared to underestimate the power of the Chaos Butterfly.

Even Hu Ji dared to stubbornly knock on the gate of Zhao Changcheng, which was guarded by Li Mu, so he was not surprised that Han Fei would become the King of Han soon after.

Thinking of Hu Ji, Cao Ze felt a little reluctant.

Although Hu Ji was quite shrewd, she wasn't as treacherous and vicious as she later became, and she was quite affectionate towards him.

Forget it, once I get to Qin and sit in a high position, I'll send someone to inquire about it.

If the Hu women fall on hard times, lend them a hand.

Cao Ze absentmindedly massaged Madam Mingzhu's jade-like feet, slowly combing them.

I wonder when Ying Zheng left home and came to Korea. I hope he doesn't stop leaving home because of him.

If that's the case, he can only sneak into Xianyang with Jingni and act according to the circumstances.

He got involved with Ying Zheng through the friendship between Wei Ershu and Gai Nie.

However, this made things a bit difficult for Lü Buwei, who had never assassinated Ying Zheng. It would be hard for Lao Ai, whose identity was unknown, to take down this Chancellor Lü decisively.

Madam Mingzhu unknowingly fell asleep with her head propped up.

Cao Ze admired Madam Mingzhu's sleeping posture for a while, and inexplicably felt a strong urge to stuff his stinky feet into Madam Mingzhu's mouth.

They really treated him like a technician.

At least the technicians can earn money, while he has nothing.

Cao Ze gave instructions to Madam Mingzhu's personal maid and then left leisurely.

Hu Meiren, who had been watching closely, saw Cao Ze come out.

He pretended to have met Cao Ze as if nothing had happened.

"Oh, Mr. Cao Ze went to Madam's again?"

Hu Meiren raised her beautiful, foxy eyes and said coquettishly.

Cao Ze didn't have time to deal with his sister-in-law; he still had to go to Jade Tiger's place to make money.

"Speak quickly if you have something to say."

Hu Meiren was embarrassed and said awkwardly, "My sister's funeral is tomorrow. Could you accompany her?"

"understood."

Cao Ze left without looking back.

Hu Meiren couldn't help but stomp her foot and said angrily, "You brat! I'll make you pay sooner or later!"

Chapter 307 Mother and Daughter Meet

Lanxiu Mountain Villa, near Xinzheng.

This is not only the residence of the Emerald Tiger, but also the place where the Emerald Tiger helps Nightfall amass wealth and hide treasures.

After leaving the Han King's Palace, Cao Ze rode his donkey from Zilan Pavilion all the way to the outside of Lanxiu Villa.

Jade Tiger was already waiting outside the manor.

When he saw Cao Ze driving up in a donkey cart, he exclaimed in anguish, "Brother Cao Ze, you're driving a donkey cart? How pathetic, so damn pathetic!"

"No way! Your brother Tiger has to find you a good car, one that matches your status!"

Jade Tiger was extremely enthusiastic, which displeased Brother Donkey. Brother Donkey brayed at Jade Tiger, startling Jade Tiger so much that he took several steps back and kept wiping away cold sweat.

"Brother's donkey... is really intelligent."

Cao Ze waved his hand and said, "I appreciate Brother Hu's kindness."

"This donkey cart was commissioned by me... to be made by the leader of the Mohist school; it is of immense value."

Emerald Tiger was taken aback. He quickly stepped forward, carefully examined the donkey cart, and even went inside to take a look.

After a long while, Emerald Tiger said with envy, "Brother, you really have a lot of face. You can have the leader of the Mo family personally build a mechanical carriage for you. Tsk tsk, just this carriage alone can sell for at least two hundred gold. With the reputation of the leader of the Mo family, adding a few dozen more gold is no problem."

Cao Ze said proudly, "That's right. Who in the world doesn't know about my friendship with the leader of the Mohist school?"

Jade Tiger had no doubt about what Cao Ze said.

He not only knew that Cao Ze was close to the leader of the Mohist school, but also that Cao Ze was close to Fu Nian, the acting leader of the Confucian school, and Tian Guang, the leader of the peasant school.

In his view, the name "Mr. Cao Ze" is a living brand worth a fortune.

"Please, brother. I must give you a proper welcome since you have graced me with your presence today."

Cao Ze was led into the mountain villa by Emerald Tiger. The scenery along the way was breathtaking, with the mountains and buildings complementing each other.

Arriving at a courtyard, Cao Ze looked around.

Outside the hall, the light and shadows are dappled, inside the wall, a cluster of green bamboo is like a painting of a green lake, outside the corridor, fragrant orchids are planted, and various green plants are lush and abundant.

Having grown accustomed to the scenery beyond the mountains, suddenly arriving at such an elegant and exquisite courtyard is quite a pleasant experience.

Emerald Tiger patted his plump, chubby hands. "Come in, all of you!"

A dozen or so beautiful maids, dressed only in thin red gauze robes, filed in one after another. Their bright red bodices, snow-white arms and legs were faintly visible through the gauze.

They performed a curtsy and said in unison in sweet, charming voices, "This servant greets Mr. Cao Ze."

Cao Ze looked at the beautiful maids, with their delicate eyebrows and red lips, possessing both youthful innocence and stunning beauty, and revealed a meaningful smile. Emerald Tiger truly understood him.

Jade Tiger smiled, his eyes crinkling. "How about it, brother? Play around today. Take whichever one you fancy and bring the slave contract with you."

These were carefully selected and kept by him; they were all virgins, and he himself had never even touched them.
