From The Erotic Adventures of Sui Tang Ti - The Maze Palace

The magnificent main palace was a three-storey golden pagoda that glistened in the sunlight. Verandahs circled each storey. On them stood hundreds of palace maidens, smiling. They were clad in robes of the finest cicada-wing lace. With nothing underneath, their firm young breasts, slender waists and shapely legs could be seen - it was even more provocative than if they were nude.
Inside the palace there were numerous rooms. These were connected by intricate passageways. In the main chamber Yang Ti had four enormous silk tents named Intoxicating Passion, Sweet and Fragrant Night, Delight of Autumn Moon and End of Spring Sorrow. Inside each tent, there were thirty or forty naked girls who played games, talked and joked or reclined on tiger-skin couches. Although the atmosphere was sedate, each of them secretly longed for the arrival of the Emperor, who would descend like a cloud.
The walls of the chamber were lined with shiny bronze mirrors. They were hollow inside and incense was burnt in them. The room was fall of the fragrance of jasmine, musk, peonies and orchids. Overhead were silk lanterns with pictures of naked beauties in provocative positions painted on them. They gave off the light of a faint moon and with candles inside them it looked like the naked beauties were about to descend any minute.
When the Emperor arrived at the palace, he would be greeted by eight kneeling eunuchs. They would take his clothes and dress him in a leopard-skin loin cloth, lined with yellow silk. He would then wander about his palace, but he would always end up in the main chamber.
When he entered the girls would cry, 'May the Emperor Live a Thousand Years'. He would then drink ginseng wine from a golden goblet until he felt his jade stem stir beneath his leopard-skin loin cloth. Then he would grab any woman in sight, though being slightly tipsy and surrounded by mirrors he would find it difficult to distinguish the real women from their images.
Then he would enter one of the silk tents. With his eyes shut, he would let himself by guided by the women's voices. He found it more fun catching a woman this way. When he got hold of one, he would push her down on a bed, couch or tiger-skin mattress. Quickly he would throw away his leopard-skin loin cloth and push his jade stem into her moist jade gate, with a thrust that could have torn through an animal hide. The giggling and whispering of the other women would continue. And, though he had not yet satisfied the first woman, he would jump up and grab another, taking her in a different position or having her standing up. When he was thoroughly satisfied, he would doze off And when he woke up the love game would start all over again. As the light in the chamber was artificial, you could not tell whether it was day or night. And Yang Ti did not care.
