Upon arriving at the main hall, several days had passed since Emperor Ling sent someone to deliver his decree; now it was the Empress's turn. It was quite strange.
Lu Ming, as usual, came to receive the decree. He wanted to see what this Empress with her peach-shaped buttocks was really up to!
"Lu Ming of Tao County, a man of extraordinary talent, quelled the Yellow Turban Rebellion, drove out the rebel army, and stabilized Liangzhou. I am deeply gratified. Having heard of your father's early death, and that you are the only son in your family, I hereby bestow upon you several beauties, hoping you will diligently guard Liangzhou and safeguard the Han Dynasty. So be it!" Zhao Kong smiled as he read the imperial decree and handed it over. "Congratulations, Governor! Her Majesty bestows upon you ten bolts of brocade and several beauties, all carefully selected ladies from noble families."
Lu Ming's expression was somewhat strange. Why was Empress He planning to send him women?
However, he still calmly took out a piece of gold and handed it over, saying, "Your subject receives the decree. Thank you for your trouble, Eunuch. May I ask your name?"
Zhao Kong was secretly pleased. As Zhao Zhong's adopted son, although he was also a eunuch, that was still his status. "I dare not accept such praise. I am Zhao Kong, a humble servant."
"So it's Eunuch Zhao. It's an honor to have you grace my humble abode with your presence. Come, please join the banquet." Lu Ming didn't have any aversion to eunuchs. They were pitiful, but they had all made their own choices.
He neither discriminated against them nor needed to curry favor with them; normal interactions were sufficient.
As long as the struggle between the eunuchs and the powerful families didn't affect him, that was fine. If they wanted to fight, they would fight in Luoyang. This was Liangzhou, and they had to listen to him!
He treated Zhao Kong to good food and drink, and then gave him money.
Lu Ming had someone take Zhao Kong to the post station; either tomorrow, or he would leave on his own in a few days.
After issuing the imperial decree, there would be a day or two of free time. This served two purposes: firstly, to exploit the people, and secondly, to show off. However, this couldn't last long, and it was also to prevent the eunuchs from gaining too much power.
After seeing Zhao Kong off, the long-absent Grand Commandant's wife, Liu Liu, arrived with several familiar women.
They looked travel-worn and tired; these were all women he had been intimate with.
"Lu Ming, do you remember us?"
"Oh, of course I remember. Ladies, please come with me." Lu Ming's heart stirred, so he invited them out, got into a carriage, and headed straight for Qishan outside the city.
"You've had a long journey; why not soak in the hot springs here to relieve your fatigue?" Lu Ming said with ulterior motives. The four familiar women—Grand Commandant's wife Liu Liu, Lady Wuyang, Lady Zhaohou's wife Wang Qing, and Yuan Kui's wife Ma Lun—were all taken to the hot spring resort outside the city.
This place had previously been the Chu family's fortified village.
With the Chu family's property confiscated, this place became Lu Ming's territory. A hundred-strong guard is stationed year-round on the outer perimeter, while inside lies a perennial geothermal hot spring, naturally soothing.
Apart from Wang Qing, all the other women here have slept with Lu Ming.
Upon arriving at the manor, they saw Liu Ling waiting at the entrance.
Today was Liu Ling's and the others' day for a soak in the hot spring; even if she was pregnant, a bath would be beneficial.
Upon seeing Wang Qing, Liu Ling almost burst into tears, "Mother!"
"Ah, Ling'er." Wang Qing looked at her daughter's slightly protruding belly and instantly knew what had happened.
Her daughter had probably become pregnant due to Lu Ming's endless rape!
Although her heart ached for her daughter, she was helpless.
This was an inevitable part of a woman's life; pregnancy was that simple.
Not getting pregnant, not being able to have children, meant being divorced!
"Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is having no offspring"—this saying was not just a saying.
"Ling'er, please take good care of your mother-in-law. I'll take the ladies to the hot springs first, and we can also get some medical checkups," Lu Ming said with a smile. He loved to torment women like Liu Ling, who possessed the arrogance of a young lady from a wealthy family, fucking them like pigs.
He'd make them do the work of maids, gradually shattering their dignity and stripping them of their former pride.
This would effectively reduce the infighting within the harem. After all, girls from powerful families possessed a cunning and composure unlike ordinary women; they were born with a thirst for power. If they weren't tamed, they wouldn't know the meaning of ruthlessness.
The women in the harem were docile, but that was cultivated.
They weren't born that way. Infighting in the harem could truly have a negative impact.
Yuan Shao was the best example. He had three sons.
The main problem was the struggle between the eldest and youngest sons. The civil and military officials around him also sided with them, causing them to become obstacles in external affairs—it was truly awful.
"Yes, my lord, I will take good care of my mother." Liu Ling became meek and submissive. Whenever she grimaced, Lu Ming would brutally fuck her, then penetrate her anus as well. The excruciating pain was unbearable, sometimes causing her sphincter muscles to relax, making farting extremely embarrassing.
Besides, she was forced to kneel and suck Lu Ming's penis in front of so many maids.
She did this while handling official business and eating, always sucking his penis under the table.
After several such incidents, she became much more obedient.
Even as a wife, let alone a concubine, she had to obey her husband. That's what a wife is; that's what a woman is.
At the hot spring, Lu Ming lewdly stripped the clothes off the three mature women and pushed them into the water.
Then he embraced them, squeezing each woman's breasts and stimulating her vagina.
Then, he moved Liu Liu, the wife of the Grand Commandant, aside. In front of Lady Wuyang and Ma Lun, his thick, long penis, amidst their swallowing sounds, pierced Liu Liu's body!
"Mmm...ah..." Liu Liu's hair was soaked, and she lay limply on the softened palm leaf cushion.
The long-lost pleasure and fullness made her feel incredibly exhilarated. Although others were watching, this pleasure made her unwilling to let the man pull out.
"Since you're here, you don't need to go back! Hehe, just stay and carry on my family line! Don't think too much, I'll handle it." Lu Ming finished speaking and pressed down on Liu Liu's delicate body, beginning to thrust violently.
His hands grasped her two soft, fragrant breasts, kneading them wantonly, occasionally pinching her pale pink nipples.
He kissed her lips while thrusting forcefully, enjoying himself immensely.
After a while, Lu Ming lifted Liu Liu's legs up; two more mature women were waiting!
He wanted to finish quickly and bring Liu Liu to orgasm first!
At this moment, Lu Ming reached the final sprint, his scrotum slapping rapidly against Liu Liu's snow-white, upturned buttocks with a "slap slap slap slap" sound!
"Mmm...ah...ah...oh oh oh..." Liu Liu couldn't help but let out soft moans. As Lu Ming's muscles tensed, his lower body convulsed, and streams of hot semen shot into Liu Liu's tender honey pot.
Liu Liu also tensed her body, arching her plump buttocks to welcome the man's powerful ejaculation!
