After an unknown amount of time, the carriage slowly stopped.
"Girl, we're here."
The carriage was prepared by the eldest prince, and Su Yu left the Cui Mansion under the pretense of going out to relax. She was not from the Cui Mansion, so the rules in the mansion did not restrict her very much, and it was easier to leave the house.
There were servants waiting at the door early.
Seeing Su Yu, the man smiled brightly and said, "Miss Su, you've finally arrived. Your Highness has been waiting for you all morning."
Su Yu frowned and whispered softly: "Excuse me for waiting, Your Highness. I wasted some time when I went out."
The Villa was built on the outskirts of Beijing. It occupies a very large area and has excellent scenery. It has carved beams and painted buildings, rare flowers and rare herbs, and a stream of winding water meandering under the corridor, flowing from the depths of the flowers and trees into a small pool surrounded by strange rocks.
It just looks empty and unpopular.
"Is there no one else?" Su Yu asked.
The servant smiled and said: "Of course there are people, but His Highness has strict rules and does not allow them to walk around freely in the garden. The servants are all cleaning and serving the places they are responsible for."
Along the way, I did see one or two servants.
But that's not what Su Yu wanted to ask.
Her eyes flashed slightly and she asked again: "Your Highness is the only master here?"
The servant takes it for granted: "Naturally."
It seems that the status of those women is lower than imagined.
Suddenly she smelled the smell of blood. Su Yu followed the smell and looked over. She saw two maids with their heads lowered holding some blood-stained clothes in their arms, as if they were about to throw them away.
"what is that?"
When the servant heard the sound, he looked over and quickened his pace quietly. He didn't want Su Yu to get into the details, so he just said, "Maybe the dancer in the mansion soiled her dress during menstruation."
lie.
Su Yu could see clearly that there were clearly marks of whipping on the clothes.
It seemed that through the blood-stained dress, one could see the cruel and cruel eldest prince, as well as a woman covered in bruises.
Seeing is worse than hearing.
At this moment, Su Yu suddenly hoped that the male protagonist could defeat the eldest prince as soon as possible and rescue the woman here.
Passing through the cloister, the courtyard is deep, and the towering trees block the sunlight in the sky, just like this hell on earth that cannot let in any light, dark and sinful.
Suddenly, the eyes widened.
The gorgeous palace stood in front of you, and the servant who was leading the way stopped and said, "This is it. Next, your maid will lead the way for you, so I won't follow you."
After that, an ordinary-looking maid came forward and said, "Girl, please come with me."
In this villa, ordinary appearance may be the luckiest person.
Su Yu had a lot of thoughts in her heart. She braced herself up, smiled and nodded slightly.
Behind him, sympathy and pity flashed in the servant's eyes.
Entering the palace, the maid led Su Yu through many twists and turns, and finally came to a door.
Opening the door, white mist and steaming water vapor hit your face.
It turned out to be a hot spring pool, with gorgeous luminous pearls inlaid on the wall. The hot spring water flows down from the bronze animal-shaped spring, overflowing the wall of the pool, surrounded by clouds and mist, which is extremely beautiful.
Even the system sighed: [This eldest prince really knows how to enjoy it. 】
Su Yu agreed, who could say otherwise.
The maid turned sideways and said respectfully: "Girl, please come in."
Su Yu made no move, frowning and looking inside: "What does this mean? Where is Your Highness?"
She came here for a "private meeting with her lover" today, but it took her so long to be brought here without even seeing the eldest prince. It was normal to be confused.
The maid obeyed the instructions and said: "Don't worry, girl. His Highness pities the girl for the long journey, and has given permission for the girl to bathe, change clothes and rest here. He will wait for you in the front hall."
After saying that, a bunch of maids appeared out of nowhere and forcibly surrounded Su Yu into the soup room. With a bang, the door was closed from the outside.
Su Yu was manipulated like a doll to take off her clothes and take off her hairpin. With a confused look on her face, she was half pushed and half pushed into the hot spring pool. Petals were scattered one after another to cover the looming body.
Su Yu: "..."
Not to mention, this hot spring pool is quite comfortable to soak in.
The system saw through her: [The host fell in love with this hot spring when he was at the door, right? 】
Su Yu was not embarrassed after being exposed, she was content and said: [Isn't it possible? 】
This is pure natural hot spring water from ancient times. It's hard to come across it just once and you can't enjoy it.
System jealousy: [I also want to have sex...]
Su Yu was speechless for a while: [...I'll wait until you level up. 】
After soaking in the hot spring, Su Yu still didn't see the eldest prince, but was taken into an empty room.
The room was very dark, with dim candlelight.
The warm fragrance spreads faintly from the Boshan stove to the entire room.
On one side is a whole wall of cabinets, divided into several grids. I don’t know what’s inside. On the other side is a bed. It looks very spacious, dotted with ambiguous water-red gauze curtains. There are two rings connected to the top of the bed, like The locks and cuffs came into Su Yu's eyes without concealment.
Then there are some decorative screen frames and jade ornaments, nothing special.
Su Yu instinctively took two steps back: "Where is this place? Where is Your Highness?"
The maid's tone was very natural: "His Highness will be here soon. Girl, please go and rest for a while. When His Highness arrives, I will come to invite you."
Su Yu was already a little wary at this time: "Didn't you just say that His Highness was waiting for me in the front hall, why didn't you lead me directly to the front hall?"
The maidservant's expression did not change, and she said calmly: "Your Highness is busy with business, and an adult just came to look for him. In order to prevent the girl from waiting for a long time, I asked my servant to bring you here first."
"Girl, please."
At this moment, the task progress bar suddenly jumped to ninety-five percent.
It seems that the male protagonist already knows that she is here.
Just knowing about it has already increased so much. If the male protagonist sees her here with his own eyes, he may jump directly to the full grid and complete the task on the spot.
At this time, the news that the eldest prince left the palace privately had reached the ears of the emperor, and Cui Ling entered the imperial study with another part of the evidence.
When he came out again, there was a solemn look on his brows.
"The Holy One has decreed that the eldest prince has no talent or virtue, is bullying and tyrannical, is greedy and monopolistic, and is not allowed by the national law. Where is the commander of the imperial army?"
A tall and mighty middle-aged man stood up and said, "I'm here."
"Follow me and arrest the eldest prince and bring him to justice."
"My lord, take your orders!"
It was at this time that Cui Ling learned the news about Su Yu.
Bai Shan was almost pierced by Cui Ling's horrifying eyes, and said bravely: "Someone in the mansion said that my cousin left in the carriage of the eldest prince's mansion early this morning. People who were ambushing outside the garden also saw that my cousin was killed. The eldest prince’s people led him into the villa.”
Bai Shan buried his head low and blamed himself: "It's all my fault. If only I had attracted attention earlier, I might have been able to stop my cousin."
It's useless to say all this now. People have already fallen into the tiger's mouth.
Cui Ling looked very sad and said with a gloomy expression: "Let's go now. You hurry up and lead our people into the garden to save people."
Baishan accepted the order: "Yes."
On the way, Cui Ling wished he could immediately put on a pair of wings and fly over, but he still had to worry about the armored and armed imperial guards behind him. Even though he was extremely anxious, he had no choice but to do anything.
On the other side, Su Yu opened a very conspicuous cabinet in the room.
There is no doubt that every grid is filled with heart-shaking instruments of torture. Some of them are familiar to Su Yu, such as whips and irons, but some of them cannot even be seen for their purpose. However, this does not affect her instinctive disgust from the bottom of her heart.
The system comforts: [Host, don’t be afraid, as long as I am here, these will never be used on you. 】
The system's auxiliary function in this world has not been used yet, let alone that it has been upgraded two levels and has more functions that can be used. Even without the auxiliary function, it is more than enough to protect Su Yu from harm.
At this time, footsteps were heard outside the door.
The flattering voice of the servant came through the crack of the door: "Your Highness, the beauty is inside, please come."
