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

When King Han An learned that the Marquis had run away and was hiding in Xinzheng, he immediately ordered Han Yu to lead the Iron Blood Alliance into the palace to protect him.

The Korean Iron Blood Alliance differs from those in other countries in that its core members are all members of the Korean royal family, whose loyalty is unwavering. It represents a significant, albeit clandestine, force within the Korean royal family.

King Han sat in his study in the main hall, refusing to see anyone who summoned him. He maintained strict vigilance until the Marquis was dead.

Han Yu stood outside the hall, one hand on the hilt of his sword, gazing at the long steps leading up to the hall, his palms damp with sweat.

If the Marquis were to come and assassinate him...

Han Yu took a deep breath, his expression remaining unchanged.

He was gambling that the Marquis would kill Cao Ze first, then Liu Sha and Ye Mu.

As long as he survives this escort mission, the position of Crown Prince will be firmly in his hands.

Mingzhu Hall.

In the secluded, dark room, the Marquis had no idea how much time had passed.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from outside. It was her damned niece and Cao Ze.

"Master, I have already found a buyer. Now all we need to do is cripple my aunt."

How much did you sell it for?

"One gold coin."

"So little?"

"To get revenge on such a cheap woman, you can't sell her at a high price, lest people think she's incredibly valuable."

Lady Mingzhu's coquettish laughter reached the Marquis's ears and was extremely grating.

A dim light wafted into the large, enclosed room.

Madam Mingzhu walked in, followed by Cao Ze and Jing Ni.

The Marquis snorted coldly.

Madam Mingzhu knelt before her aunt, who lay naked on the ground, and said with a hint of apology, "Aunt, I didn't want to torture you like this..."

The Marquis spat, "You slut, you're disgusting. You'll do anything to please your new master."

Madam Mingzhu trembled involuntarily as she recalled what had happened the previous night.

Her beautiful face flushed slightly; last night, under Cao Ze's insistence, she had done quite a few embarrassing poses.

In her shame and anger, Madam Mingzhu sneered, "My niece is merely a lowly possession of her master, while you, my aunt, are about to become a lowly possession of countless men, with your lips touched by thousands."

The Marquis spat at Madam Mingzhu.

Madam Mingzhu wiped the spittle from her face, showing no anger whatsoever.

"Please, Sister Jingni, cripple my aunt's cultivation so that the brothel madam can take her goods."

Jing Ni paused for a moment, then said, "Okay."

The Marquis remained proud and defiant, "Come on! Don't let this old woman..."

Jing Ni knocked out the Marquis who was about to spout nonsense with a single palm strike, then tapped the Marquis's jade-like body dozens of times and fed her a special medicine.

Cao Ze touched the Marquis's body a few times; it was soft, smooth, and supple.

He clicked his tongue and said, "This woman is really something, a timeless beauty who still retains her charm."

Madam Mingzhu smiled and said ingratiatingly, "Give me some time, and I guarantee that my aunt will be completely subservient to you, sir, and let you do whatever you want with her."

Jingni was already used to Madam Mingzhu's shamelessness.

"Her internal energy has been dissipated, and she won't be able to gather it for at least a month. Those medicinal liquids amplify her perception of pain; a single slap will make her experience the taste of torture."

These were some torture techniques she had learned from the Luo Wang organization; she never expected to use them here.

Cao Ze nodded and patted the pretty face of Madam Mingzhu, who was blushing and fawning over him.

"Tide Fairy, don't disappoint me next."

"Rest assured, Master, I will certainly do my best," Madam Mingzhu said charmingly.

Cao Ze put his arm around Madam Mingzhu's soft waist and chuckled, "It's still early..."

Madam Mingzhu pressed herself against Cao Ze's chest, her eyes filled with seductive allure, and said, "Sir, how about we do it here with your aunt? It would be nice for your aunt to learn from you."

Cao Ze clicked his tongue and said, "That little vixen really knows how to play. Jing Ni, wake up the Marquis."

Jingni remained silent, touched the Marquis, and turned to leave the secret room.

The Marquis slowly awoke to find the two lovers entwined in front of her, and though she wanted to curse them, she couldn't utter a sound.

It is a great disgrace that the Bai family produced such a despicable woman as Madam Mingzhu!

While making love with Cao Ze, Madam Mingzhu said intermittently, "Aunt...you must learn well, we'll need you when we go to the brothel tomorrow..."

The Marquis discovered that she had lost all her internal energy and could barely muster any strength. Her heart sank; she was truly crippled.

She wanted to curse, but couldn't utter a sound, so she closed her eyes and remained silent.

He had already made up his mind that once he got to the brothel, he would find an opportunity to end his life.

They will never be humiliated like that shameless brat Mingzhu, disgracing the Bai family!

Chapter 328 Mingzhu Trains the Slave, Rebellion in Progress

"You slut! Stop playing dead!"

She was kicked hard on the back, and the pain made the Marquis tremble and wake her from her unconsciousness.

Her beautiful eyes were filled with pain, and she curled up slightly.

This is where?

The Marquis gradually regained consciousness.

Before she lost consciousness, the adulterous couple had sex in front of her.

When I opened my eyes again, I found myself in the small, cramped room in front of me.

Were you sold?

The Marquis gritted her teeth, overwhelmed by a deep sense of humiliation that made her feel ashamed and indignant.

She moved her body and found that her hands and feet were tightly bound with hemp rope.

What disgusted her even more was that the room was extremely dirty and dilapidated, with the bricks on the floor beneath her covered in mottled stains.

Normally, she would feel disgusted just looking at it, let alone lying here naked.

The Marquis frowned in disgust, struggling to sit up and move slightly away from the oil stain.

"You shameless whore! What's your name?!"

The Marquis's body tensed; the hoarse voice behind her was...

She tried her best to turn her head.

The first thing that catches the eye is the tattered portrait on the wall, and the wooden table with the paint almost completely peeling off. On it sits a small oil lamp and an incense burner with several extremely poor-quality incense sticks stuck in it. White smoke swirls around, and the smell is disgusting.

"I'm asking you a question!"

The Marquis was kicked in the buttocks, and the pain was so intense that she almost thought her bones were broken.

She strained to look up and finally saw the woman sitting on the chair next to the table behind her.

One glance was enough to almost suffocate her.

In the extremely dim light, the madam's face was covered with cheap makeup, making it impossible to tell her age. A black mole the size of a cat's eye on her face made her extremely repulsive.

The Marquis shouted angrily, "Who are you?!"

"Hey! Talking like that, you slut, you're asking for a beating!"

Lady Mingzhu, disguised as a madam, grabbed the Marquis's hair and slapped her several times, making the Marquis see stars.

The Marquis was shocked and furious. Her cultivation had been destroyed, and even a madam dared to beat her like this.

Several red gauze curtains covered in dust hung beside the window frame of the small room. The window frame was sealed with wooden boards, leaving only a tiny gap.

Cao Ze and Jing Ni stood outside and, through the cracks, could see everything inside the small room.

"Madam Mingzhu is truly ruthless."

Cao Ze clicked his tongue.

No wonder Lady Mingzhu wanted to amplify the Marquis's perception of pain. She couldn't break her, but she had to make the Marquis feel fear. It seems she really knows how to train slaves.

However, he originally thought Madam Mingzhu was a great shark, but now it seems that she is just a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong.

That's good. With a little effort, we can control the life of the Tide Demoness and make her obedient.

Jingni's fair and delicate face showed no change in expression.

Compared to the methods of the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven), Lady Mingzhu's actions were merely insulting the Marquis, which could only be considered child's play.

Cao Ze continued to peek.

"You slut! I spent a gold coin to buy you, you whore, and you dare to yell at me! Try yelling again!"

Lady Mingzhu cursed the Marquis with glee. She had long harbored such thoughts, but due to her aunt's long-standing authority, she could only think about it and secretly enjoy it.

The marquis, naked and bound to the ground, felt her eyelids twitch.

"She was promised a young, beautiful woman, but she's a middle-aged woman! She's all skin and bones, not firm at all, practically dead! How many times can those men resting by the roadside use her?!"

Lady Mingzhu, disguised as a woman, cursed and swore, filled with anger and resentment, and punched and kicked the Marquis a few more times.

The Marquis was in excruciating pain all over her body, but her heart sank even deeper.

This woman spoke crudely and filthyly; she was undoubtedly a brothel madam.

"Stop!" The Marquis couldn't take the beating anymore. Her hands and feet were bound, and she couldn't dodge. She swallowed her anger and said, "Let me go. I can give you money, a hundred gold coins or a thousand gold coins, it's all fine!"

"Oh ho, trying to brag to me? Do you think I'm one of those idiots? You're a filthy whore who committed adultery, was used and then sold, and doesn't even have a piece of clothing on you, yet you talk about a hundred or a thousand gold pieces? Do you even deserve it?!"

The Marquis de Lacey roared, "Who's committing adultery!"
