Chapter 15
Book 2 Chap 2 – The trap of l.u.s.t
When Lady Ya’s men were carrying him up the carriage, Xiang Shaolong woke up but his body still felt weak.
Lady Ya sat in the carriage and let him put his head on her lap, gently caressing his hair, once in a while sighing, obviously unaware that he has regained consciousness.
Xiang Shaolong did not find it strange at all. Because she does not know that he has undergone ‘anti-body training’ for drugs before and was injected with many kinds of antibodies, and is able with withstand many times more than the average person various kinds of medication and poison.
The poison from the needle could have been cultivated from plants. It can cause him to lose consciousness and strength temporarily but will not harm his body or cause long term damage. By now he feels that his body is slowly regaining its strength.
Why would she want to deal with him?
He felt a strange sensation on his face, it turns out to be Lady Ya’s tears dripping onto his face.
The carriage moved, obviously no one dared to stop her carriage.
Lady Ya sighed daintily and mumbled, "Shaolong do not blame me, I am forced to do it. If I don’t, we’ll all end up in a bad state."
Xiang Shaolong is not an idiot, so how can he not guess that this is the plot of the Marquis of Ju Lu, Zhao Mu. However he could not figure out why he would plan this, no matter how bold he is, he wouldn’t dare to harm him so openly right? But why would he help an ‘outsider’ like Lian Jin deal with him who should be ‘one of his man’?"
Lady Ya’s anxious breathing calmed, and she remained silent.
Naturally Xiang Shaolong continued to pretend to be unconsciousness and took the opportunity to rest so that he can deal with the enem’s next step.
The carriage suddenly stopped.
Followed by the sound of the door opening.
Lady Ya’s dainty body shook and she quietly exclaimed, "Marquis!"
The Marquis came into the carriage, the door closed and the carriage continued on its way.
Lady Ya’s breathing hastened again and she asked in shock, "What are you going to do?"
A melodious and deep voice said, "Nothing! Just testing his reaction."
Xiang Shaolong was secretly sneering to himself, already know what the other party is planning to do and thought to himself that he knows how this is done as well. He concentrated and willed his body to relax.
Indeed he felt a sharp pain on his thigh, and he was stabbed by the other party’s sharp weapon.
Lady Ya asked, "Do you not trust me?"
Zhao Mu laughed, "It’s better to play safe, how would I know that you will not join forces with him to trick me."
Lady Ya was thinking of protesting when her body suddenly leaned forward and her tiny mouth made gurgling noises, obviously the other party is now kissing her.
Xiang Shaolong even felt the Marquis hand going over his p.r.o.ne body, roaming all over Lady Ya’s body. Listening to the sound of the clothes, Zhao Mu’s hands must have reached into Lady Ya’s clothing.
Lady Ya moaned daintily.
Zhao Mu laughed lecherously, "You s.lut, getting more and more well endowed."
Lady Ya panted, "Haven’t you tortured me enough today?" and she continued moaning again.
Although Xiang Shaolong could not see, he can imagine all the awful things that is happening and felt a surge of jealousy. He forced himself to suppress that feeling and vowed never to harbor any more love for Lady Ya. Especially when this wanton is writhing so much, obviously unable to withstand the ministrations of the other party.
The Lady Ya now is worthless in his mind.
Zhao Mu let go of Lady Ya and smiled evilly, "You want it again?"
Lady Ya leaned weakly on the back of the chair, her whole body heated and did not make a sound.
Zhao Mu said with a chuckle, "If I were to marry you, Zhao Ya will you give up this lad and follow me?"
Lady Ya sighed and said, "Marquis don’t make fun of me, the one you took a fancy to is Wu Tingfang, why would it be a hated and used person like me?"
Zhao Mu who is sitting opposite her reached his hand out to caresses her breast again and laughed, "It’s so bouncy, so how can it be used. Fine! I won’t force you, as long as you listen to me and work for me, this lad will be yours tomorrow night."
Xiang Shaolong finally understood, no wonder Zhao Mu hated him so much, it’s all because of this exquisite beauty Wu Tingfang.
Lady Ya allowed herself to be molested and moaned, "I really do not understand, even if Xiang Shaolong lose, Master Wu will definitely not give his precious granddaughter to you, so what’s the use of you dealing with Xiang Shaolong?"
Zhao Mu replied smugly, "I have my plans, you do not have to concern yourself. Hei! Tell me, between this lad and me, whose touch gives you the most pleasure?" He increased the intensity of his touches.
Lady Ya stammered, "Of course it’s you who makes me feel better."
Zhao Mu’s voice turned icy as he asked, "Then why is it when I used this lad to do an exchange with you, you surrendered immediately?"
Lady Ya exclaimed quietly, "Marquis your hands are hurting me."
Zhao Mu asked furiously, "Answer me first!"
Xiang Shaolong was so furious he almost wanted to draw his dagger and kill him, but of course he cannot do that, because he has a bigger goal, which is to kill Lian Jin.
Lady Ya replied helplessly, "Because you only have l.u.s.t for me, but for him, besides l.u.s.t, there’s love as well."
Zhao Mu released Lady Ya, and after a long moment he calmed down enough to say, "After he’s awake, Cuiniang will feed him one ‘l.u.s.t’ pill. If you cannot handle it yourself, then ask Cuiniang to replace you, you must not force yourself. After that let him sleep deeply for 6 hours before waking him up.
Lady Ya asked worriedly, "Will it really be alright?"
Zhao Mu smiled icily, "Look at how concerned you are over him, I really feel like killing this lad. Don’t worry! Besides expanding a lot of energy because of the aphrodisiac, everything else will be the same. It’s just that he will be destined to lose in that duel with Lian Jin. Remember, you have to accompany Lian Jin tomorrow night, and after that I will not bother in your affairs in future"
The carriage stopped.
After Zhao Mu left the carriage, the horse started moving again.
Xiang Shaolong was secretly exclaiming that it’s a close shave. This is indeed a devious plan, using women to cause him harm without leaving any trace, formidable indeed.
Luckily he is Xiang Shaolong. If it’s anyone else, that person won’t even know how he died, and may even blame himself for not being able to control his l.u.s.t.
Xiang Shaolong was carried into Lady Ya’s bedroom and after the servants left, only Lady Ya and that woman called Cuiniang whom the Marquis has ordered to supervise them were around.
He was secretly cracking his brain, how can he hide from these 2 women? If the aphrodisiac melts on contact with the mouth, he won’t have enough time to spit it out.
Footsteps were heard moving away.
Xiang Shaolong took the risk and peeped through his lids, and saw Lady Ya with a voluptuous and flirtatious looking woman standing a distance away, arguing about something.
He had a flash of idea, and tore away a corner of his s.h.i.+rt and stuffed it into his mouth, sealing the food pa.s.sage.
The two ladies walked back again and Lady Ya exclaimed unhappily, "Is the Marquis really that distrustful of me!"
Cuiniang replied obsequiously, "Lady please forgive me, the Marquis ordered me to witness the whole process. He’s already giving Lady face, or else he loves to see such things the most. If it is not me but him watching the whole thing, Lady would be even more embarra.s.sed."
Lady Ya did not protest further, and quietly accepted this arrangement. He could hear the sound of the wax pill being opened, followed by a strange fragrance wafting into his nose.
A pill about the size of a thumb was stuffed into his mouth, dropping right into the piece of torn cloth.
Cuiniang said with a laugh, "Done! This pill melts on contact with the tongue and will flow into the throat. No matter how chaste or strong willed that person is, he will not be able to fight it."
The aphrodisiac may have been separated by a piece of cloth, but it’s swiftly melting.
Cuiniang said as she walked away, "Let me get some water to wake him up."
Lady Ya ran after her and asked, "What if he wakes up and found out that I’ve given him aphrodisiac, won’t he hate me then?"
Xiang Shaolong was afraid that the aphrodisiac will seep through the wet cloth into his throat and was just lamenting about it when he saw this chance to hurriedly spit out the cloth and hid it under the pillow.
Cuiniang replied with a laugh, "Don’t worry! He’s under the influence of the drug and will be in a semiconscious state. The only thing he knows is that he must do his best, so Lady just enjoy yourself! I can see that he’s as strong as an ox, maybe Lady will beg me to take over later!"
Lady Ya gave a cold snort, feeling offended.
Cuiniang does not seem to be afraid of her and left with a coquettish smile.
Lady Ya returned to his side, heaved a sigh, and loosened his clothes.
After a moment Cuiniang returned and cleaned his face with cold water, and was baffled, "This person’s const.i.tution must be really unique, his skin has not even turned red."
Xiang Shaolong laughed secretly to himself, and with a roar, pretended that the drug has taken effect and
