The first time in history

"Can I call you Sister Yi from now on?" Qian Mingduo winked at Xi Shi.

"You can call me Sister Yi anytime." After this extreme pleasure, Xi Shi's body was in a state of perfect relaxation, as if every cell was expressing satisfaction and comfort.

Xi Shi's face was filled with an indescribable tenderness and tranquility, a sense of happiness emanating from the deepest part of her heart.

"Have you heard the story of Tian Jing and Su Yao?" Qian Mingduo asked softly, "It's in a side hall not far from Guanwa Palace."

"Of course I've heard of it." Xishi turned slowly and then lay on her side gracefully. There was a hint of smile in her eyes, as if she knew everything.

"Are you scared?" Xi Shi asked calmly.

"I'm not afraid of him!" Qian Mingduo's hand involuntarily touched the Browning on his lower back, and he snorted and said, "Fuchai is a feudal monarch, no, a slave monarch. He trampled on the good life of the people wantonly."

Qian Mingduo said with deep emotion: "Love, the most beautiful flower that blooms in the land of freedom and equality, withered and died under the shackles of monarchs like Fuchai."

"Historically, there have been mixed reviews of King Gou Jian of Yue." Qian Mingduo recalled a passage he asked his students to recite in college: It is said that Gou Jian ordered Wen Zhong to commit suicide on the grounds that "you taught me seven strategies to attack Wu, I used three of them and defeated Wu, and the fourth is in your hands. Please try it for me according to the previous king."

This incident also reflects the cruelty and ruthlessness of ancient political struggles.

"You played a key role in Gou Jian's conquest of the Wu Kingdom." Qian Mingduo gently stroked the soles of Xi Shi's feet.

"Hmm..." Xishi curled up her legs and said with a sweet smile, "Itchy!"

"Brother Fei." Xi Shi said leisurely, "What do you think the future generations will say about us for what we have done?"

"You have been highly praised by later generations." Qian Mingduo said with a smile: "Some historians say you are a patriot, and some scholars say you are a hero who restored the country. But what is most widely known about you in later generations is your beauty."

"My beauty?" Xi Shi smiled and asked, "What do people in later generations say about me?"

"Your name - Xi Shi, is the symbol and synonym of beauty. As the first of the four great beauties in China, your beauty has been widely praised and admired by later generations."

"Your beauty is not only reflected in your appearance, but has also become a cultural symbol and aesthetic standard, representing the ultimate female beauty."

"Do you know the beauty of being able to sink a fish?" Qian Mingduo said softly.

"What is the beauty that can submerge fish?" Xi Shi asked softly.

"There is a legend that... when you were washing your silk in the stream, the fish in the water saw you and were so amazed by your beauty that they forgot to swim and sank to the bottom of the water."

"Ha, ha, ha." Xi Shi smiled as sweet as orchid, pouted her little lips, with a bright light flashing in her eyes, and said softly: "How can this be possible? Even fish think I'm pretty?" She raised her head slightly, staring at Qian Mingduo, with a charming smile on the corner of her mouth.

Qian Mingduo looked at the beautiful Xi Shi in front of him, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He shook his head and said seriously: "You are really good-looking, really beautiful!" His voice was full of deep emotion and sincerity, as if he wanted to convey the praise from the bottom of his heart to Xi Shi.

After hearing this, Xi Shi's face flushed with shyness, but more of it was happiness and satisfaction. She gently lowered her eyes, lowered her head slightly, and revealed a faint smile, as if she was enjoying the beauty of this moment.

"I guess you just think I'm good-looking." Xi Shi gave Qian Mingduo a blank look and said playfully.

"Do you know?" Qian Mingduo said seriously, "The King of Yue used your stunning beauty to make Fuchai indulge in beauty and ignore state affairs." Qian Mingduo said disdainfully, "Moreover, he built a lot of buildings, wasting national strength... There is a line in a song: I love the country, but I love the beauty more. Humph! The country is destroyed for the beauty!"

"Then I am a beauty who brings disaster?" Xi Shi showed a trace of sadness on her face.

"To Fuchai... you can say that!" Qian Mingduo sighed and said, "But to Goujian, you are just a tool and a chess piece for him to restore his country."

"Yi'er." Qian Mingduo was afraid that these words would hurt Xi Shi's self-esteem, so he quickly said, "What I just said is what people will say about you thousands of years later. Please don't take it to heart."

"Brother Fei." Xi Shi said calmly: "When Doctor Fan Li found me, I knew I was a chess piece. Although I don't want to be manipulated by others, but...what can I do?"

This was the first time Qian Mingduo saw Xi Shi's helpless and helpless expression. He always felt that Xi Shi was willing to give everything for the Kingdom of Yue, and he felt that Xi Shi was a person with great ambitions.

But from Xi Shi's current expression and demeanor, she really has too much helplessness and pain. A delicate girl was forced to become a spy and a pawn in the disputes between countries. Her soft shoulders should not have borne such a heavy mission.

"You are bearing the unbearable weight of life. Alas!" Qian Mingduo sighed, "None of these guys are good!"

"I only know the curse words you just said." Xi Shi shook her head and said, "I don't understand anything else. But I know that none of us can control our own destiny."

"I don't know if anyone has discovered our being together tonight." Xi Shi said calmly, "Will someone report us, and will the story of Tian Jing and Su Yao... happen to us again?"

"If there really comes such a day in the future...it's still unknown who will win. Even if I die, I will drag a few of you down with me. Damn!" Qian Mingduo stood on tiptoes and sucked hard on Xi Shi's jade feet a few more times.

"Alas!" Xi Shi blushed. She looked at Qian Mingduo tenderly and said softly, "We are doing the most dangerous thing. One day, maybe... not because we are together, but because of what we did for the Kingdom of Yue, we will be exposed. Who knows?"

"Who knows tomorrow...who knows the day after tomorrow...we may become victims of the sword..." Xi Shi looked at Qian Mingduo, her eyes revealing indescribable tenderness and endless sweetness.

Xi Shi slowly turned around and lay on the jade couch. The veil had quietly slipped off as Xi Shi turned her body, outlining a breathtaking arc on the jade couch.

Her two legs were casually raised up, and her two white jade-like feet were swaying slightly. Every swing seemed to be telling of the desire and expectation deep in her heart.

Her seemingly unintentional behavior seemed to be a subtle signal and hint in Qian Mingduo's eyes, as if she was telling of Xi Shi's unspoken feelings, a tacit understanding that only the two of them could understand.

Qian Mingduo did not look back this time. He walked in lightly through the window again.

At the moment when the sudden lightning split the sky, the night sky seemed to be ignited. A dazzling light soared like a giant dragon, tearing the originally dark curtain apart, bringing a moment of shock and light.

Immediately afterwards, a muffled thunder rolled in, from far away to near, like the angry roar of a god, shaking the earth and the quiet space where Qian Mingduo and Xi Shi were.

At this moment, heavy rain poured down like a dam bursting in the sky. The dark night seemed to be suddenly pierced by an invisible force. Endless rain poured out, colliding violently with the ground, making loud crackling noises.

The rain quickly formed a thick curtain, wrapping the whole world tightly in it, blurring the mountains and rivers in the distance and the grass and trees nearby. It also seemed to want to cover up the private and joyful time that Qian Mingduo and Xi Shi were spending on the jade bed.

However, in this storm, Xi Shi and Qian Mingduo seemed to be in another world, with only each other's heartbeat and breathing interweaving into a warm melody that belonged only to the two of them. In this small space, they felt unprecedented warmth and peace.

The sounds of rain, thunder and wind became the most beautiful background music at this moment, adding a bit of romance and passion to their happy time.

All of this will become an eternal memory in their hearts, forever engraved in this extraordinary night.
