To be honest, this did have a bit of an impact on Shen Qingyun's worldview.
In other words, Shen Qingyun is not completely used to it yet.
The knowledge of the ancients is certainly incomparable to that of modern people.
Modern people have many ways to entertain themselves, and there are so many things they can play with.
The ancients didn't have many things to play with, so they could only play with people.
To them, concubines are similar to goods, they can play with each other and give them away.
Of course they don't think there's anything wrong, because it's quite normal for them.
The situation in front of me is not even a bank party.
"That's not good?"
Shen Qingyun was a little embarrassed.
He was really moved.
"What's wrong? It's not the first time." Zhou Bing chuckled and said, "Or does Brother Shen prefer the last one? Is it Hongyun or Qingliu?
It doesn't matter, as long as Brother Shen likes it, I will let them serve Brother Shen together. "
pair?
Isn’t it too exciting?
Shen Qingyun swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "That's not necessary..."
"Brother Shen, why are you being polite to me?"
Before Shen Qingyun could refuse, Zhou Bing stood up and waved to the girls. Two of them stopped and walked quickly to Shen Qingyun with their heads lowered.
"Serve the prince well."
"yes."
The two women leaned against Shen Qingyun, one on the left and the other on the right, making Shen Qingyun's blood surge.
This is Zhou Bing's consistent method to please Shen Qingyun.
The Shen family is not short of money, but Shen Qingyun is short of women.
It's okay to go to a brothel, but you can't take people back to the uncle's house.
In addition, Zhou Bing himself was also a lustful person and kept many concubines for his pleasure. Of course, the original person participated in it without any surprise.
The strange fragrance hit his nostrils, a soft whisper came to his ears, and his clothes were untied at some point. Shen Qingyun suddenly lost control and even breathed a little faster.
Beauties, wine, obscene talk, the scene was extremely chaotic.
Zhou Bingzheng was holding the beauty in his arms, but when he saw Shen Qingyun sitting on pins and needles, he was a little surprised and said: "Brother Shen doesn't seem to be in high spirits?"
Shen Qingyun only forced a smile when he heard this, and it was a bit hard to bear it.
Zhou Bingdao: "Yes, it's normal that these vulgar fans can't catch Brother Shen's eyes."
Of course Shen Qingyun was not in peace, but he really couldn't accept the scene before him.
There were too many people there, and he liked to be more private.
"Brother Zhou is joking. Brother Zhou's vision is of course fine, but compared to Xu Qiaoer, they are still a little behind."
Helpless, Shen Qingyun could only push Qiaoer out as a shield.
Zhou Bing said with a smile: "Brother Shen, since he knows the taste of marrow, why didn't he go looking for her for several months?"
I went. Didn’t I lose face and feel embarrassed to go again?
"There are a lot of chores, I just forgot about them for a while."
"Haha..." Zhou Bing had no doubt about him and said with a smile: "Brother Shen, if you want, I can definitely help you capture Xu Qiaoer?"
help me?
No, don't talk nonsense. Why did you help me?
"Brother Zhou is joking again. Now that things have happened, where are we going to find someone?"
Zhou Bing smiled proudly, "Brother Shen, don't worry, I have my own way."
"Oh?" Shen Qingyun paused when he heard the words, his heart moved, and his eyes suddenly became clearer.
"Then I'm really curious, what is Brother Zhou's solution?"
Zhou Bing drank a lot of wine and was in high spirits. After hearing this, he looked around, then stood up and said to Shen Qingyun: "Brother Shen, please come with me."
Zhou Bing took Shen Qingyun to the door of a small room on the side of the backyard.
"Brother Zhou, why did you bring me here?"
Zhou Bing just smiled, then opened the door and said, "Brother Shen, please come in."
The smell in the room was not pleasant, there was a smell of decaying wood, and if you smelled it carefully, you could also smell the fishy smell of blood.
Shen Qingyun frowned and entered, only to see a figure lying on the ground shivering in the darkness of the candlelight. The heavy breathing and whimpering were particularly clear in the silent room.
It even hissed a little harshly.
"This is...?"
Zhou Bing raised his hand and lit all the candles, and the room suddenly became brighter.
The room had obviously been temporarily tidied up, with some debris piled messily in the corner. A table and a few stools were placed in the vacant space, and some simple torture instruments like whips were also placed on the table.
The person shivering on the ground was a thin, middle-aged man, probably in his early forties, but his face was covered in blood and his appearance could not be seen clearly.
The upper body was naked, and there were several marks on it, which should be whip marks as expected.
And since Shen Qingyun entered the door, the man became even more frightened, curling up his body as if he could protect himself.
"This is the father of that bitch Xu Qiaoer." Zhou Bing sneered: "If this bitch is really like Brother Shen said, it would be better if she froze to death and was eaten by wild beasts. If she didn't die, then I would let her see it with her own eyes. How did his father die?"
Shen Qingyun glanced sideways at Zhou Bing, and his heart sank.
"No wonder Brother Zhou is so confident, it turns out he still has this trump card." Shen Qingyun said with a smile: "I hope Xu Qiaoer is really dead, otherwise, I'm afraid I will have to live but not die."
"Haha..." Zhou Bing laughed proudly after hearing this.
"But Brother Zhou should be careful."
Zhou Bing was stunned, "Brother Shen, what do you say?"
Shen Qingyun pointed at the man and smiled: "The weather is getting colder and it's about to snow. It doesn't matter if Brother Zhou tortures him to vent his anger, but if he really kills him, then there will be no fun. ?"
Zhou Bing glanced down, nodded and said, "Brother Shen is right, if you kill someone, it won't be fun..."
With that said, Zhou Bing turned around and ordered: "Go get some food and medicine, and give him some clothes. Don't let him die."
"yes."
After saying that, Zhou Bing smiled at Shen Qingyun and said, "Tomorrow I will start sending people to spread the news to see if this bitch will show up. Brother Shen must come to see the fun."
"Of course." Shen Qingyun smiled and nodded, "I like fun the most."
Rejecting Zhou Bing's invitation to stay overnight, Shen Qingyun said goodbye and left on the pretext of being drunk.
On the way back, Zhong Qi drove the car and saw that Shen Qingyun was silent all the way, and asked, "Do you want to tell Miss Qiaoer about this?"
"What do you think?"
Zhong Qi also fell silent.
Shen Qingyun's original plan was to send Qiaoer away early tomorrow morning, wherever he wanted, give up hatred, and let her start a new life.
This result seems to be good for everyone.
But now she suddenly has a father, and she is still a hostage in Zhou Bing's hands. If she tells Qiao'er, Qiao'er will definitely not want to leave alone.
At that time, most of the ending will be miserable, and the ashes will have to be raised.
But if he doesn't tell Qiaoer about this, he will pretend that he doesn't know anything from her. As long as he sends her away smoothly, at least she can still live well.
But is this unethical?
When Qiaoer finds out about this in the future, will he hate Shen Qingyun?
Although Shen Qingyun doesn't really care about this.
From Shen Qingyun's perspective, of course it is best to choose the latter.
But from Qiaoer's perspective, maybe she wants to reunite with her father, right?
Last time Qiaoer tried her best to escape, maybe it was because of her father?
Putting himself in his shoes, Shen Qingyun felt that he could not help Qiaoer make this decision.
"Let's go back and talk about it first." Shen Qingyun sighed softly, feeling that the chill was getting worse and his body was a little colder, so he couldn't help but wrap himself in a robe.
Back at Zhuangzi, Qiaoer and others had already gone to bed.
Shen Qingyun paced back and forth in front of Qiaoer's room, hesitant.
After a long while, Shen Qingyun finally made up his mind and knocked on the door.
"Has the girl fallen asleep?"
This is nonsense. It's late at night and the candlelight has been extinguished. Why don't you sleep?
"Miss Qiao'er?"
There was no response from the room, and Shen Qingyun knocked three more times.
"Did you sleep like that?"
Shen Qingyun muttered to himself, and then knocked several times.
Still quiet, Shen Qingyun finally realized something was wrong.
Pushing the door open hard, there was no life in the dark room, and there was no one on the bed.
Shen Qingyun's expression changed and he shouted loudly: "Here comes someone!"
Zhong Qi was the first to respond, "Your Majesty."
"Go and wake up Aunt Li and the others."
"yes."
After a while, the sleepy Aunt Li and the others came to Shen Qingyun.
"Your Majesty." Several people were a little lackluster.
"When did Miss Qiaoer leave?" he asked.
"Who asked you to let her go?"
"Miss Qiao'er is gone?" Several people were a little confused.
"You don't know?" Shen Qingyun frowned.
Several people shook their heads, and Xiaohuan said: "After the prince left, Miss Qiaoer has been with the servant. They chatted for a long time after dinner, and she didn't say she was leaving."
There are only a few people in the village. The cook Aunt Li and the two maids Xiaozhen Xiaohuan live in the backyard, and the remaining two caretakers live in the front yard.
In other words, there are people at the front and back doors of Zhuangzi.
Most of them waited for a few people to go to bed before leaving secretly.
"That's all." Shen Qingyun waved his hand, "I can't blame you for this."
Aunt Li worried: "It's such a cold day, where can Miss Qiaoer go?"
"Yes, yes, she is just recovering from her illness, and now she is frozen again."
Shen Qingyun also sighed after hearing this, "She didn't give up at all."
Qiaoer left at this time, obviously he has not given up on revenge against Zhou Bing.
"But it's now this time, where can she go?"
Shen Qingyun paused for a moment, then stood up and ordered: "She must not have gone far. Lao Qi, take someone to look for her. You must find her for me."
"yes."
Shen Qingyun gave the order, and the originally silent Xiayang Village suddenly became alarmed.
A group of three or five people each found a direction and went away.
It's just that the night is dark, and Qiao'er deliberately hides, so it's not easy to find him.
Until daybreak, everyone found nothing.
"Reporting to the Crown Prince, we have searched the area and found no trace of Miss Qiao'er."
Shen Qingyun said in a deep voice: "Impossible. How far can she run as a weak woman?"
Hearing this, Lao Zhangtou said: "The roads in the countryside are crisscrossed and overgrown with trees and grass. Maybe Miss Qiaoer just found a place to hide."
"Prince..." Zhong Qi walked in quickly, holding a bag of clothes in his hand.
"These are...my clothes?" Shen Qingyun was a little surprised.
Zhong Qi said: "She was found near the city gate. She entered the city."
Shen Qingyun hummed and nodded slightly, "Let the others come back. There is no need to look for them."
"yes."
