The concubine is a man, and the illegitimate son of a divine physician has a spatial ability.

Sheng Muling quickly helped Yin Zijing up and said gently, "Zijing, you've seen my personality these past few days. I'm not the kind of person who shows off. I'm too weak."

What you're describing is too grand a concept for me to handle alone. I'll need you by my side to offer guidance from time to time.

Yin Zijing nodded and said, "From now on, we can support each other..."

And so, Yin Zijing and Sheng Muling chatted about everything under the sun, from the highest mountains to the widest seas. Yin Zijing's novel and unfamiliar stories broadened Sheng Muling's horizons and deeply captivated her, making her listen intently as Yin Zijing spoke: "In that world, every woman is independent and unrestrained; they can do whatever they want."

They wouldn't be confined to their homes, bound feet and breasts, living in a small, cramped world, their lives revolving solely around their husbands and sons. They could participate in politics and work outside the home. Women in that world possessed almost equal legal rights with men…

Sheng Muling listened intently, as if she were in that wonderful world. She imagined women freely pursuing their dreams, no longer bound by traditional ideas.

Yin Zijin continued, "There are no feudal ethics or the concept of male superiority over females. Women can receive education, pursue knowledge, choose their favorite professions, participate in social affairs, make their own decisions about marriage, and freely choose their partners. They are no longer appendages of men, but individuals equal to men."

A longing welled up in Sheng Muling's heart; she yearned to experience such a world firsthand. However, the feudal society of reality confined her to her boudoir.

Seeing Sheng Muling's expression, Yin Zijing continued to encourage her, "Your Highness, we can do it too, even in the Great Sheng Dynasty. We don't need anyone; we can support ourselves. Let that saying about being supported by the people of the world and having to think of them go to hell!"

We must first be ourselves, live for ourselves first, and then think about other things.

Like Zijing, although she was bound by various rules against her will, she was free, and her heart was free. Zijing learned medicine from her third uncle and developed superb medical skills, which enabled her to not only treat the sick and save lives, but also earn money to support herself.

It was precisely because Zijing knew medicine that she accidentally discovered the princess had been poisoned by those poisons…

Sheng Muling nodded, her eyes filled with hope, and quickly asked, "Zijin, what do you think I can do? I'm weak and don't have any special skills..."

Yin Zijin smiled and said, "Your Highness, please don't underestimate yourself. I originally had a plan, but unfortunately, I am just a nobody with little influence and little power, so the plan was shelved. Now that Your Highness has joined us, it will be twice as effective with half the effort, like adding wings to a tiger."

Sheng Muling's eyes lit up, and she quickly asked, "What plan? Tell me."

Yin Zijing took a sip of hot tea to moisten her throat and continued, "Princess, every woman has her period for a few days every month. When she has her period, the menstrual pad is not very useful and will leak, making her clothes all over the place. Every time she has her period, she doesn't dare to move, for fear of making a mess."

My plan is to improve menstrual pads so that all girls can use comfortable ones. Then I'll design comfortable underwear (or lingerie), and finally, I'll open a clothing store, a ready-to-wear store.

Sheng Muling blushed, covered her face with a handkerchief, and said embarrassedly, "Oh dear! Zijing, how can you just put menstrual pads and undergarments out in the open like this! How can you sell these! No one will buy them."

Yin Zijin said, "Your Highness, rest assured, we will secretly give the menstrual pads and undergarments as free gifts to those who buy the clothes. If they like them, they will naturally come to us."

Sheng Muling's blush hadn't faded yet, and she quickly said, "That's good, this avoids awkwardness. But Zijing, if we give it away for free, won't we lose money?"

Yin Zijin quickly said, "So we need to think about saving costs from the very beginning. We can talk about that later. Right now, the most important thing is to help the princess solve her current predicament, and also to improve the menstrual pad..."

As dusk approached, Ah Tian couldn't help but remind her, "Miss, it's getting late, let's head back!"

Upon returning to the elegant cottage, they naturally enjoyed a meal, a bath, and a change of clothes. Ah Tian helped Yin Zijin change into a bodice coated with a thick layer of ointment.

Yin Zijing lay in her warm bed, drank a bowl of cold medicine, and felt listless and weak. But then, a piercing itch began to run down her lower body again.

Afraid that Yin Zijing would get cold, Ah Tian didn't dare to lift the covers, so he crawled under the covers from Yin Zijing's bound feet and lay down next to her, rubbing her vigorously.

Yin Zijing groaned comfortably, her bound feet taut. Not satisfied, she said, "Granny Zhou, quickly, massage my bound feet."

Granny Zhou sat on the bed, her hands reaching under the covers, her large hands tightly enveloping Yin Zijing's bound feet, kneading them vigorously, and saying with a smile as she kneaded, "The young lady has grown up, she's even learned to ask for herself."

After drinking too much of the cooling medicine, Yin Zijing felt that she had no sensation in her front, but her back was extremely itchy. She quickly asked, "Granny Zhou, is my back going to be ruined...?"

Granny Zhou said with a smile, "From now on, Miss, you'll be serving men. Just serve them well. What's the point of that? Do you think you're thinking about other women...?"

The more Zhou Mama thought about it, the more serious she became. She quickly said, "That's absolutely not allowed. When the young lady comes of age, this old servant will suggest to the madam that if necessary, we should have her genitals castrated to prevent her from having any wild thoughts."

Yin Zijing's body stiffened instantly. She wet her underwear, quickly pushed A-Tian away, climbed off the bed, and knelt down, tears streaming down her face. Her pitiful appearance was heartbreaking to see. Yin Zijing hurriedly said, "Granny, please don't! Zijing has nothing left. For over ten years, Zijing has never disobeyed her mother."

Zijing learned everything a young lady should learn, and even excelled at it. Even if something was no longer useful, Zijing wanted to keep it…

Looking at the beautiful woman with her curvaceous figure and tiny bound feet that could be grasped in one hand, Zhou Mama saw Yin Zijin crying pitifully, her face streaked with tears, which broke Zhou Mama's heart and softened her. She quickly said, "Alright, anyway, you are no different from a woman now, it doesn't matter whether you cut it or not."

The medicine on the breast wrap isn't strong enough! The girl is still conscious, so it looks like we'll need to increase the potency tomorrow.

And some girls really have a unique charm when they cry. Cry more in front of men in the future; your tears will break the hearts of countless men..."
