She was actually taken to Zhongshan but it was a tower of depraved performing arts.

The carriage passed through the bustling city gates of Zhongshan Kingdom. The carriage rumbled to a stop beside a building with the words "玉女樓"(Jade Maiden Tower) printed on it, its wooden doors decorated with elaborate carvings of naked beauties. Mei Ling's heart pounded in her chest, a cold feeling welling up in her gut.

Mei Ling turned to the captain of the Yan cavalry: "Is this really Zhongshan Kingdom? Can you guarantee that you've taken me there?"

"Yes, Princess Zhou," Officer Yan smiled slyly: "If you doubt, observe to confirm, those flags won't lie, right?"

Mei Ling inspected the surroundings and stated: "The flags... and the customs seem to reflect Zhongshan's lineage. It is indeed Zhongshan territory. But the building with the words 玉女樓 on it feels a bit off" .

The officer Yan looked understanding. "You see Princess, We're not fooling you, are we? 玉女樓 is the most wonderful entertainment place in the whole of Zhongshan. The reason I let you down here is because I asked the building owner 玉女樓 to give you a map of the shortest journey in Zhongshan to the Zhao Kingdom."

Princess Mei Ling clasped her hands in front of her bare breasts and bowed her head slightly: "Thank you, noble warriors of Yan."

The cavalry rode away, leaving Mei Ling standing naked alone in front of the building with the sign "玉女樓" . A lingering unease enveloped Mei Ling. She cautiously approached the building, her heart pounding. The air was heavy with the scent of incense and something else, something more powerful and unsettling peer inside. Her breath caught. The scene before her was far from the peaceful elegance she had expected. Beautiful girls, dressed in revealing clothes, freely moved, laughter and the melodious sound of music swirling around her. she caught glimpses of scenes that made her blood run cold. In a room “Golden Customers,” six beautiful girls, dressed only in a thin silk cloth, were dancing the peacock dance, feeding fruit to two Zhongshan nobles the west side of the building, where a room marked “Diamond Clients” revealed an even more horrifying sight. A completely naked beauty was playing the pipa while sitting on the lap of a Zhongshan nobleman. The nobleman, submerged in his own depravity, fondled the beauty's bare breasts. Around them , seven other beauties, dressed only in a thin silk cloth, danced to the music, their movements filled with lust and provocation.. Mei Ling's breath caught in her throat. "玉女樓" was not a place of artistic refinement, but a den of depravity, where beautiful ladies were used as objects for the pleasure of Zhongshan's powerful male nobles.

She looked around, her eyes stopping at the painted women, their bodies adorned with silk and jewels, their faces They were adorned with seductive smiles. She could feel their eyes on her, their taunts and smirks like a thousand daggers stabbing into her flesh. The owner of the building, a wise woman named Madame Feng, standing in the center, watched the scene with a bright smile as Mei Ling walked in, shivering from being naked in the cold air and the lewd glances directed at her.

Madam Feng smiled slyly: "Hello Welcome, beautiful Princess Mei Ling! We have been eagerly awaiting your appearance since the Yan knights introduced you. Such exquisite beauty should not be hidden!"

Mei Ling said in a trembling voice: "I came to ask for directions to Zhao Kingdom... A map to the Zhao Kingdom. I was told by the Yan knights that you have it."

Madam Feng leaned over close, sweet voice: "What map is this princess talking about, I don't understand? But we were very skeptical when we heard from the Yan soldiers about... your unique hobby of living naked everywhere. But now when I see you walking in completely naked, I know they were absolutely telling the truth. In this place, your desire to show off your naked beauty on stage before thousands of Zhongshan noble audiences will be fulfilled. You've come to the right place. "

Mei Ling, her eyes wide with terror, shook her head. "No, I... I don't understand," she stammered, desperation lacing her voice. "There's been a mistake."

The owner laughed, a hoarse, shrill sound. _“Don’t be shy, Princess. You’re a volunteer. It was your friends who were the Yan Nation cavalrymen who said that they were asked by you to register your special . The performance registration form was called ‘Princess Zhou’s Naked Peking Opera Dance’ and you stamped your _the seal of your Zhou kingdom princess on it.

I could tell from the name of the act that your naked Peking Opera dance would be a masterpiece, and that you, Princess, You were destined to be the star.”

She remembered the Yan officer's sly smile, his cruel gaze. _"He used my royal seal" she clenched the royal seal in her hand, a bitter taste filling her mouth with anger. "He used my own identity to enslave me!" _Mei Ling's heart sank. She understood now. The Yan soldiers had lured her into this den of depravity. They had used her royal seal, her most precious possession, to bind her to this place.

The Yan soldiers had obtained 500 taels of silver from the building owner by registering her for a performance called "Princess Zhou's Naked Peking Opera Dance". They used her royal seal to sign an agreement forcing her to stay in the building to perform naked Peking Opera until she brought in 1,000 taels of silver from ticket sales to the Zhongshan aristocratic audience.

Not only that, the Yan soldiers also took advantage of Mei Ling's misfortune of having to live naked to spread false rumors about her, but everyone here believed it to be true. The rumor said: "Princess Mei Ling of Zhou, although beautiful, suffered from an exhibitionism disease and always liked to be seen naked by many people. She voluntarily entered the 玉女樓 theater naked because she was very eager to perform a naked opera on stage.

Mei Ling felt a wave of nausea rising within her. The Zhongshan people in this building now thought of her as a freak, an exhibitionist, a lewd princess. This rumor combined with the curse of having to live naked that she was suffering from had distorted their perception of her.
