Chapter 979: 979 Xi Shi’s Worldview Shattered

"Hehe, then you’d better learn a lot.

Serving His Majesty is our honor.

Once we’re inside, you’ll dance a little to entertain him.

The palace rules aren’t many, and we can even go home to visit our families every year. All we need to do is obey the Empress."

Mi Zhen continued to coax her, eager to see this beauty fall into depravity. The more beautiful a woman, the more entertaining it was to see her fall.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xi Shi didn’t dare reply.

Speaking of such things was truly embarrassing, and responding was even more difficult.

A young, unmarried woman, like a quail, dared not even look at or think about such matters.

Now, being asked to seduce Lu Ming filled her with excitement and joy, yet also a trace of unease.

It was the unease of entering palace life, leaving her original family for a new one.

This hesitation and unease frightened her.

Fear was useless; it wouldn’t bring her peace of mind, but rather exacerbate her panic.

Since she was Fan Li’s daughter, Xi Shi was nothing like what she claimed.

She said she grew up there, frequently working in the fields, chopping firewood in the mountains, and picking lotus and fish in the water—and she wasn’t wrong about any of that.

What she didn’t mention was that these tasks weren’t frequent, only once every six months, to prevent her from becoming too pampered and to allow her to approach things with a more balanced perspective.

This way, after becoming the first wife, she could control her husband’s family’s resources and thus help Fan Li.

Besides working, Xi Shi also needed to learn music, chess, calligraphy, and painting. She didn’t need to be an expert, but she should have some knowledge.

This way, no matter what her future husband did, she would have something to talk about and wouldn’t be bullied or isolated.

You could say that Fan Li raised his daughter with meticulous planning, or even painstaking care.

Naturally, the well-read Xi Shi wasn’t stupid; on the contrary, she was quite intelligent.

Xi Shi immediately knelt before Mi Zhen, pleading, "Your Majesty, please enlighten me. From now on, Xi Shi will obey Your Majesty’s commands and respect Your Majesty above all else."

Looking at the bowed Xi Shi, Mi Zhen merely smiled, offering no reply, and continued speaking to herself, "Get up. You only need to listen to the Empress. As long as it’s not about vying for power or favor, the Empress is very tolerant.

I won’t say more. After each new concubine enters the palace, Her Majesty chats with them, and you are no exception."

Looking at Xi Shi still kneeling on the ground, a hint of wariness flashed in Mi Zhen’s eyes. This Xi Shi was indeed extraordinary.

However, she posed no threat to her, or rather, no threat at all.

They weren’t in the same league, and couldn’t compete with each other.

Finance was important, but agriculture was fundamental, and Xi Shi didn’t seem to know how to do accounting.

Xi Shi raised her head, but didn’t get up. "Thank you for your guidance, Your Majesty. I will never forget your great kindness, and I will obey your every command without question!" "Alright, now I will give you my orders.

Get up!"

Mi Zhen smiled knowingly, saying nothing more, as it was unnecessary.

Xi Shi then slowly got up, treating Mi Zhen with great respect.

She always felt that every imperial concubine was a remarkable person, and therefore dared not be negligent.

Perhaps this was life in the harem; one had to be extremely careful.

Soon, a maid came out and announced that Mi Zhen and Xi Shi should enter the room together.

Xi Shi followed behind Mi Zhen, not walking in front. Only those of high status walked in front; she didn’t have that privilege.

In terms of etiquette, she behaved quite well.

When Xi Shi entered, she discovered three women lying on the bed, their bodies reclining. One of them was someone she didn’t recognize, and she had no idea where she came from.

Three women, naked and panting, were drenched in sweat, seemingly having just experienced intense sexual intercourse.

"This commoner, Xi Shi, greets Your Majesty and the three ladies."

Xi Shi bowed proactively. She had only seen Mi Zhen call out "Husband" before leaning closer, their intimacy unlike that of a concubine and emperor, more like that of an ordinary couple!

This intimacy surprised Xi Shi. It seemed Mi Zhen and His Majesty had a very close relationship!

"Xi Shi, is it? I heard you can dance?

Then dance for me to see!"

Lu Ming looked at the alluring beauty before him. He didn’t know what Xi Shi looked like. Many had portrayed Xi Shi... but what did the real Xi Shi look like? Perhaps this was it.

She looked similar to Tong Liya, but with better skin, larger eyes, and fuller lips. Her prominent features made her overall profile more defined.

She possessed an indescribable beauty, and the smile that often graced her lips added to her elegant allure—a beauty so captivating it was almost irresistible!

"This humble woman obeys."

When Xi Shi raised her head, she unconsciously saw Lu Ming’s penis.

She also saw Mi Zhen proactively climb on top of him, even seeing Mi Zhen’s pink labia part and willingly take the monstrous glans into her mouth.

She dared not look any longer, and didn’t understand why her seemingly tight vagina could swallow such a large penis. She only knew she had to dance quickly, keeping her eyes fixed straight ahead, trying her best to satisfy Lu Ming.

Mi Zhen adopted a reverse riding position, her back to Lu Ming. While this position prevented kissing, it allowed the man to grab and knead her breasts from behind!

And it was quite convenient; when she wanted to kiss him, she could lean back, making it very easy.

Especially when the man lay down, he could see how her anus and vagina were manipulating his large penis.

The visual impact often made him ejaculate quickly.

Don’t let Mi Zhen’s quiet demeanor fool you; she and Yuanyang are in charge of finances, and she needs to be shrewd.

Finance is a crucial position, so while she suspected Xi Shi might gain favor, she wasn’t overly concerned.

Her position was special; not just any woman could replace her!

Besides, she had two older brothers, both serving as officials in the provinces, and doing quite well. With their combined influence, they were bound to be successful.

The Mi family was a very competent in-law family; they were discreet and unassuming, keeping a low profile. As long as His Majesty remembered what they had done, that was enough.

They served not just anyone, but the imperial family.

Xi Shi hadn’t yet entered palace life or stepped into this circle, so she naturally didn’t know this.

She was now suppressing her shyness, dancing to the rhythm in her heart without any musicians. Dancing before a man she had only just met and who was already naked—what a shameful feeling!
