The sun has set, the clouds are dim, and everything has finally returned to calm.

Inside the imperial garden, it is a mess, filled with picturesque scenes.

At this moment, Lu Ningshuang lies weakly among the flowers, her pretty face pale, tears streaming down.

She allows a palace maid to carefully wipe away the traces on her body.

Lu Ningshuang's eyes are lifeless. She has discovered that this tyrant not only indulges in debauchery without shame, but there is also something even more outrageous - this tyrant never weakens!

His body is comparable to that of an ancient fierce beast, as if he always has an inexhaustible power!

With such a terrifying physique, how did he achieve it?

Lu Ningshuang recalls her previous plan and finds it laughable.

She had wanted to deliver a fatal blow to Qin Mu when he relaxed, but now it seems like a joke.

"Your Majesty, let this servant help you bathe," a palace maid says as she approaches Lu Ningshuang, respectfully.

Lu Ningshuang looks up and sees a full moon hanging outside the palace, emitting a hazy light that reflects on her pale cheeks.

Lu Ningshuang's beautiful eyes turn red, tears welling up. Her whole body is in unbearable pain, making it impossible for her to move.

Moreover, after this ordeal, she is extremely hungry.

However, she still stubbornly sits up and walks towards the bath.

Her pride and self-esteem do not allow her to surrender.

"Sigh~" Lu Ningshuang sighs lightly and then enters the hot spring bath.

At this time, Qin Mu is lazily reclining on a soft couch, holding a cup of hot tea and savoring it leisurely.

By his side, Hongxiu kneels on the ground, her arms wrapped around Qin Mu's legs, gently massaging and kneading with delicate and gentle movements. Her beautiful eyes are full of anticipation and a charming smile.

Qin Mu closes his eyes, enjoying the warm and comfortable massage from Hongxiu.

However, deep inside, he lets out a faint sigh.

Sigh~ It's such a dull and tasteless day.

Qin Mu slowly opens his eyes and casually says, "You will stay tonight as well."

Upon hearing this, Hongxiu is overjoyed.

She shyly lowers her head and coquettishly says, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Qin Mu nods lightly and then says, "Go and see if Lu Ningshuang has finished washing up. Bring her here as well."

Upon hearing this, Hongxiu secretly envies Lu Ningshuang.

The Emperor has favored Lu Ningshuang all day, and now he wants to continue favoring her at night. This is truly a great honor.

"Yes, I will obey," Hongxiu respectfully says.

Then, she turns and leaves, gracefully walking into the bath.

At this time, Lu Ningshuang has finished washing up and walked out of the hot spring.

She is wrapped in a large veil, tightly covering her body, concealing the faint glimpse of her beauty.

Her exposed snow-white skin is delicate and flawless, like white jade, radiant and full.

However, her body still aches, and she can't help but let out a soft groan as she walks.

"Damn tyrant!" Lu Ningshuang grits her teeth and curses inwardly.

This tyrant not only indulges in debauchery but also lacks any sense of shame. He is truly despicable!

But fortunately, the painful torment has finally ended, and she can rest well tonight.

Thinking of those nightmarish memories, Lu Ningshuang's heart beats faster, feeling a dull pain throughout her body, as if she has been torn apart.

She can't bear to face that inhuman man, Qin Mu, at least not in the near future!

"Creak~" At this moment, the door suddenly opens.

Lu Ningshuang is startled and looks up, only to see a familiar and charming face.

"What are you here for?" Lu Ningshuang asks, slightly stunned.

To be honest, she doesn't like this woman.

Hongxiu sways her graceful figure, taking light steps.

She coldly gazes at Lu Ningshuang, a seductive smile appearing at the corner of her mouth, and says lightly, "His Majesty summons you."

Lu Ningshuang trembles, her face even paler.

Could it be that this tyrant wants her to serve him again?

No... she can't... she will really die!

Lu Ningshuang bit her lip and shook her head resolutely.

Hongxiu saw her pale face and a hint of mockery appeared at the corner of her mouth. She said with a slight sneer, "You should think carefully. You should be aware of the methods the Emperor employs. If you refuse..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ningshuang's face grew even paler, and her body trembled involuntarily.

Seeing Lu Ningshuang's reaction, the smile on Hongxiu's face became even more pronounced.

Feeling the mocking gaze from the other party, Lu Ningshuang clenched her fists tightly and snorted, "Fine, I'll go. Who's afraid of whom!"

With that, Lu Ningshuang followed Hongxiu out of the bathroom and headed towards the main hall.

As soon as the two arrived at the main hall, they saw Qin Mu leaning back in his chair with his eyes closed, leisurely drinking tea.

Lu Ningshuang took a deep breath and walked towards Qin Mu.

Meanwhile, Hongxiu knelt down from a distance and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, the Frost Consort is ready."

Upon hearing this, Lu Ningshuang cursed Hongxiu in her heart, but she also knelt down.

Although she didn't know why Qin Mu had summoned her, since she had been forced to agree, it was better to obediently comply.

Qin Mu heard this and raised an eyebrow, opening his eyes to glance at Lu Ningshuang with an interested smile, his eyes filled with a playful gleam.

Lu Ningshuang's heart burned with anger, wishing she could kill Qin Mu a thousand times over.

But before she could speak, Hongxiu softly interjected, "Your Majesty, it seems that the Frost Consort has not fully recovered yet. I noticed some unnaturalness in her walking just now..."

As she spoke, Hongxiu covered her mouth and chuckled, exuding a seductive charm.

Lu Ningshuang: "......"

This despicable woman!

Lu Ningshuang was speechless with anger, wishing she could immediately tear apart Hongxiu's red lips!

At this moment, Lu Ningshuang felt a strong desire to fight rising within her.

She wanted to fight back!

Between women, they either become close friends or bitter enemies!

Clearly, both Hongxiu and Lu Ningshuang couldn't stand each other and had become bitter enemies.

Lu Ningshuang looked at Hongxiu and retorted, "Who said that! I... I have already recovered a long time ago!"

Hongxiu chuckled softly and said in a gentle voice, "Ningshuang, if it's really not possible, don't force yourself too much, okay~"

"Hmph!" Lu Ningshuang snorted coldly, her face showing disdain. "Fox spirit, I don't need your concern."

Upon hearing this, Hongxiu didn't get angry at all, but just smiled and said, "So what if I'm a fox spirit? His Majesty likes this kind of person, unlike someone lying there like a dead fish."

Lu Ningshuang's face immediately turned red, and she angrily retorted, "You're the dead fish! That foolish ruler clearly likes me more, you're just jealous!"

"Jealous?" Hongxiu giggled, "Jealous of you? Haha..."

Covering her mouth, Hongxiu laughed lightly, as if she had heard the funniest joke in the world.

Then, Hongxiu suddenly straightened her back, revealing her ample bosom, and said playfully, "What am I jealous of you for? Jealous that you're smaller than me?"

Hearing Hongxiu's belittlement, Lu Ningshuang immediately became furious and said, "My... my legs are longer than yours!"

As she spoke, Lu Ningshuang played with her slender and straight jade legs, completely disregarding any exposure.

Hongxiu didn't back down either, and she also lifted her long skirt, revealing her slender and delicate jade feet, which she lightly stepped on the ground, saying, "My feet are prettier than yours. Frost Consort, you often practice swordsmanship, so your heels must be calloused, right!"

After speaking, Hongxiu sighed with feigned regret, "Oh my, just imagine that rough appearance, it must be as rough as tree bark!"

Hearing Hongxiu's mockery, Lu Ningshuang's face turned red, and she was so angry that she felt like she was going to vomit blood.

This despicable woman!

Although she often practiced swordsmanship, at her level, how could she easily develop calluses? Her feet were just as fair and smooth!

Lu Ningshuang glared at Hongxiu, gritting her teeth, her heart filled with rage.

Hongxiu, however, remained unfazed, and her smile grew even wider.

"Your Majesty, who do you think has prettier feet, me or Frost Consort?" Hongxiu looked at Qin Mu with a smile, full of charm.
