Shen Qingshu has an extremely yin constitution, and every night evil spirits torment him, leaving him no peace.
When he was sixteen, a sorcerer gave him a terrible suggestion: absorb yang energy from men.
From then on, Shen Qingshu frequented the pleasure quarter, becoming a favorite topic of conversation over dinner in the capital.
One day, Shen Qingshu arrived at the pleasure quarter at his usual hour. After entering a room, he saw a man leaning by the window, watching him for a long while. Frowning in displeasure, Shen Qingshu said, "What are you standing there for? Come over and help me undress."
The man seemed intrigued. He raised an eyebrow and smiled, but said little.
The next morning.
Shen Qingshu woke up in bed and remembered the man who had tied him to the headboard and shown no manners. Furious, he vowed to have him torn limb from limb.
After asking around, Shen Qingshu learned that he had gone into the wrong room the night before, and the lecher who had taken him completely was nowhere to be found.
Several months later, the Shen family was raided and wiped out for selling salt illegally. As Shen Qingshu was being exiled, an imperial decree was read aloud, specifically naming him and ordering him to appear.
Shen Qingshu received the decree and entered the palace. When he looked up, he saw that the emperor's face was exactly the same as that of the lecher from that day.
After that, a golden palace was built in the imperial harem, where a caged golden songbird was kept.
Every nightfall, the emperor would go there and spend the night.
Sitting on the bed, Shen Qingshu sneered, "Your Majesty comes here every night. Aren't you afraid of attracting something unclean?"
The man smiled, gripped his chin, and leaned over him. "It doesn't matter. I have plenty of yang energy."
