After saying this, she just pinched the butler's chin and said, "Do you think that if you make such a pitiful gesture, that if you actively offer your body, people will be obsessed with you? ** *, you don’t even look at how many times you’ve been raped by me now, your appearance is no longer attractive to me.”
Hearing this, the housekeeper quickly lowered his head. He didn't even dare to look at Xu Zhilan.
"The slave knows that his status is humble and he dare not make his master unhappy. The slave just thinks..."
However, before he could finish his words, Xu Zhilan interrupted him. She pushed the man away indifferently, and then whispered, "From now on, you don't have to come over. I can also return your contract." You, after that you go to the housekeeper to get one hundred taels of silver and then go out and live a good life. After all, you are just following me, I can't treat you badly."
Hearing this, the butler who was lying on the ground almost couldn't believe it. He raised his head and looked at Xu Zhilan, and then his eyebrows were full of disbelief.
When he finally realized what kind of gift the other party had given him, the butler, who always looked pitiful, seemed to really smile now.
After all, being able to be returned to the contract and driven out of the house by his master was already the greatest grace in his opinion.
However, he heard something just now. Not only did the other party want to release him, he also wanted to give him one hundred taels of silver.
Although such a sum of money may not be able to afford a big house in the capital where land is at a premium, it is completely enough for him to build a big house when he returns to his hometown. He can even use the money to marry, have children and open a house in the future. Small shop.
And after that, he can be regarded as a small landowner.
When he thought of such a life, the housekeeper's face was filled with a longing smile.
Who wouldn’t want to be that person if they could live that kind of life?
Seeing the other party's uncontrollable smile, Xu Zhilan said nothing. She just looked at the other party quietly, then waved her hand and said, "Go down."
Hearing Xu Zhilan's words, the housekeeper just said yes, and then he left without looking back without any regrets.
Looking at such a housekeeper, Xu Zhilan only secretly thought that this man really didn't have any nostalgia for her. ..
But think about it, if you succumb to another person's knee, no matter whether you are a man or a woman, if you don't get respect, you can't have much affection for that person.
If it's a transaction, it's just a transaction.
Thinking of this, Xu Zhilan just stood up. She decided to go to Prince Jin's Mansion in person. Although she could also send someone to sneak in and take a look, there were many secret guards in Prince Jin's Mansion. If she left rashly, she would not be able to steal the chicken. If you lose a handful of rice, the gain outweighs the loss.
Therefore, she might as well look at it openly.
When Xu Zhilan went out, the young housekeeper had already packed his bags and was about to leave.
The young man thought Xu Zhilan regretted letting him go again.
So he just knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xu Zhilan.
However, Xu Zhilan never glanced at him. She left directly from his side, as if she had never met him before.
Seeing Xu Zhilan like this, the housekeeper knew that the other party had really given up on him, and what he had just done was just the product of his excess consciousness.
After Xu Zhilan got on the carriage, the coachman only asked in a low voice, "Madam, where are we going?"
Xu Zhilan said softly, "Go to Prince Jin's Mansion."
"Prince Jin's Mansion? But didn't Prince Jin and Princess Jin come here just now?"
Xu Zhilan did not answer the coachman's doubts. She only said to the coachman after getting on the carriage, "Let's go directly."
What is the difference between master and servant? Naturally, the coachman did not dare to ask any more questions.
The carriage then rumbled all the way to the Prince Jin's Mansion that Xu Zhilan said.
When Jiang Nianjiao heard people say that Princess Liang came over, she was painting a landscape painting with Zhao Yanzhen.
Jiang Nianjiao was not surprised when she heard that the other party was coming, but she didn't expect that the other party would be so out of control.
She glanced at Zhao Yanzhen behind her, and Zhao Yanzhen naturally let go of his hold on her. He only whispered, "It seems that the fish is about to take the bait. You can go over first, and I will stay in the study."
Paired with Jiang Nianjiao
She nodded cooperatively, and then she walked out of the study and walked towards Xu Zhilan.
Xu Zhilan was already sitting in the main hall at this time.
She looked at Xu Zhilan and said intimately, "Zhilan, why are you here?"
Hearing Jiang Nianjiao's words, Xu Zhilan only raised her head and said, "I just forgot to give you something."
After saying that, she just motioned to the housekeeper on the side to place a stick of old wild ginseng in front of Jiang Nianjiao.
"This is a wild ginseng that my mother's family got from her family. It is said to be a hundred or two hundred years old. There are only two of them in total. I heard that you often feel dizzy and weak. This thing is a treasure for replenishing qi. You can keep it. Eat slowly."
After hearing what the other party said, Jiang Nianjiao just smiled and said, "You are so polite."
Xu Zhilan did not answer Jiang Nianjiao's words. She only asked, "By the way, brothers and sisters, I wonder where King Jin is now?"
Jiang Nianjiao said softly, "He went to report to other familiar relatives that he was safe."
Hearing this, Xu Zhilan's mind became much more active. She had been worried that Zhao Yanzhen would see through her intentions.
But Jiang Nianjiao seems to be just raising flowers and vegetables, and may not be as smart as Zhao Yanzhen.
So she just said, "It's good to report that you are safe. We should go and report that you are safe."
After saying this, she just lowered her voice and asked, "Brothers and sisters, I wonder if those secret guards have told the truth now?"
When Xu Zhilan asked about this, Jiang Nianjiao shook her head in frustration.
"Not yet. I didn't expect these secret guards to be quite tough-mouthed."
After hearing this, Xu Zhilan only breathed a sigh of relief, and then she just asked in a low voice, "Can I go over and have a look?"
Hearing this, Jiang Nianjiao asked in surprise, "Why would you want to go to a place like that? It's dirty and smelly there. I'm afraid I'll scare you."
Xu Zhilan said nonchalantly, "I'm not afraid, just take me there."
After hearing her keep saying this, Jiang Nianjiao finally nodded and said no more.
She only led Xu Zhilan to the underground water prison.
In the dark and damp underground, although there are torches burning, there are still many places that cannot be seen clearly.
There was only a locked gate at the entrance.
Jiang Nianjiao only knocked lightly on the threshold. Then he whispered, "Someone, please open the door."
Soon a guard in black came over. He looked at Jiang Nianjiao in embarrassment and said, "Princess, why are you here?"
"I want to see how the guards are doing today. Have they recruited them?" Jiang Nianjiao asked.
The guard shook his head in embarrassment and said, "Not yet, they are quite tough."
These words coincided with Jiang Nianjiao's words.
Jiang Nianjiao pointed to the cell door again and said, "Open the door for me. I want to go in and take a look."
"But Princess, this place is dirty and smelly. Besides, I don't dare to make my own decisions without Prince Jin's permission."
"Why don't you dare to make the decision without permission? Anyway, as long as your people don't tell me, and I don't tell you, who will know that I came here today? Besides, what if you know, I will say that I forced you to open this door for me. Just let me in."
After hearing what Princess Jin had said, the guard naturally stopped talking. He only opened the door for Jiang Nianjiao, and then turned sideways to let Jiang Nianjiao and Xu Zhilan walk in at the same time.
Then he led these people into the inner room, and the further inside, the darker the light became.
After reaching a water prison filled with water at the end, the guard stopped and said, "They are all inside."
These people's hair was disheveled and their entire bodies were immersed in the water, looking slumped and embarrassed. Their hands were tied high to the bars on the cell door.
Hearing someone coming, one of them couldn't help but raise his head.
Although the light here was dim, Xu Zhilan was so shocked that she took a step back when she saw the man.
She saw it clearly!
The man just now was the secret guard she sent out to do things before, but she didn't expect that she would meet him here.
The secret guard naturally saw Xu Zhilan clearly.
For a moment, he almost thought that the other party was also caught in the water prison. However, looking at the other party's undisturbed form, it didn't seem like he was being held captive.
The person was arrested and put into a water prison.
He felt depressed, thinking that he had betrayed his master, but he did not dare to admit it. And he was the only one left alive.
The other brothers in this water prison who did not raise their heads are all dead.
But after experiencing torture, after those brothers are dead, what is the difference between living and dying.
After Xu Zhilan recognized that the other party was her own secret guard, she did not dare to take a closer look to see if the other people were her own secret guards.
After all, it's so scary here.
Moreover, she was also very afraid that the secret guard would ask for help from her. If he asked for help, wouldn't she be exposed?
So after just one glance, she was so frightened that she stepped back far away.
When Jiang Nianjiao saw her expression, she couldn't help but smile sarcastically.
In fact, even if she looked carefully, the secret guard would not ask for help from her. After all, before letting the secret guard meet her, they had already tapped his mute point, and he could not speak a word at all.
It's a pity that Xu Zhilan didn't know this. She hid behind the door and only said to Jiang Nianjiao, who was approaching with a concerned look on her face, "Brother and sister, let's go?"
Jiang Nianjiao only said "Hello".
Then Jiang Nianjiao helped Xu Zhilan leave the water prison.
After leaving the dark dungeon and seeing the light of day again, Xu Zhilan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
She slowly looked at the light, then looked at Jiang Nianjiao and said, "Gillian, I have something to go back to, so I won't stay here for long, and you don't have to see me off."
After saying this, Xu Zhilan pushed Jiang Nianjiao away and went outside Prince Jin's Mansion.
There was a dim light outside Prince Jin's Mansion. Looking at the dim skylight, Xu Zhilan felt that this skylight seemed to be her way forward. Thinking of this, she just felt depressed.
Jiang Nianjiao watched Xu Zhilan leave with an expressionless expression.
Seeing her slumped posture, Jiang Nianjiao couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for this woman.
