Nanshan Temple.
In the peaceful years, the lives of the common people were stable, and religious beliefs flourished.
Around the Capital, there were about 60 or 70 temples of various sizes, but only a few were truly renowned. Apart from the royal temple, the Grand Chancellorâs Temple, Nanshan Temple was one of them.
Named after its location on the southern mountain, it thrived with incense, enjoying the tolerance of the court. The entire Nanshan was under their control.
After being rescued from the City God Temple Street, Du Gong found himself outside the South Gate. When he regained consciousness, he was already in the forbidden area behind Nanshan Temple.
After some medical treatment, he gradually recovered his senses.
A veiled woman stood by his sickbed and said, âDu Gong, have you recovered your yang energy?â
Du Gong, now cleaned and well-cared for, except for his extremely poor spirits and the fact that he had been castrated, appeared gloomy like most eunuchs. He glanced at her and recognized her, saying, âCui Wei, what about Jin Xi and Jin Tao?â
This person was none other than Cui Wei!
She used to be the top courtesan of the Zhongding Pavilion, but in Thousand Butterfly Valley, due to jealousy over Liu Shimei, she was disfigured by Liu Shimei.
At that time, Mu Jiangli only had Miao Fengyu take Cui Wei away and didnât dispose of her.
Therefore, she was allowed to keep her life!
Who would have thought that she would be in league with Du Gong? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âThey have been brought here,â Cui Wei said regretfully, âJin Xi accepted the reality quite well and quickly. But that little girl Jin Tao is very resentful. When she found out about our identities, she was deeply affected. Itâs been so many days, but she hasnât been able to come to terms with it!â
Du Gongâs face remained expressionless as he said, âRegardless of whether she can or cannot, feed her the medicine. When the time is right, send her to Zhongding Pavilion.â
Cui Wei sighed and said, âDu Gong, why are you so ruthless to every woman who has been with you?â
âExcept for you!â Du Gongâs face turned even darker upon hearing the words âwomen who have been with youâ.
He had had lost his âcrown jewelâ. Now, he could no longer play with women in the future!
Realizing she had touched a nerve, Cui Weiâs expression stiffened slightly, and she changed her tone, saying, âForget it, forget it. Anyway, for the women you have trained, they only have one path. They have to do it, whether they want to or not.â
Seeing Du Gongâs silence, Cui Wei thought of something else. âBut Du Gong, all these years, anyone you fancied never escaped your clutches. I canât believe you let Liu Shimei slip through your fingers. What are you planning?â
Mentioning Liu Shimei made Du Gongâs expression even uglier. âThis matter has nothing to do with you; I will report to the master!â
Cui Wei snorted coldly, âThe master is used to using others as tools to kill. You know that! This time, itâs your mistake. The hunter was bitten by the prey, and you almost lost your life!â
Before Du Gong could speak, she sighed again and said, âHowever, this Liu Shimei⦠sheâs quite cunning. With our abilities alone, Iâm afraid we canât handle her. The master will have to step in!â
Du Gong glanced at her but remained silent.
Howeverâ¦
Liu Shimei had caused him such a humiliating defeat. Even though he had saved his life, for a man, without the ability to sleep with women, what hope was there to live?
This debt would not be settled so easily!
âYou donât need to say anything; I know what youâre thinking,â Cui Wei sneered, turning to leave. âTake care of your injuries first. Our goal is the same. When we capture Liu Shimei, the first thing Iâll do is scar her face! After that, you can do whatever you want!â
The door closed, and the world plunged into darkness..
