Some things, even if they have passed, will come back again.
Even though Wei Li said all he said harshly and did all the bad things, he would still appear in front of Xu Zhihuai from time to time, seemingly speaking coldly, but in fact he just wanted to have sex with her.
He was attached to everything about her, as if he was addicted to her.
The days in the Hou Mansion felt a sense of isolation and coldness.
Xu Zhihuai's waist injury recovered very slowly, and his brutal and wanton behavior always caused new injuries on her body, leaving her with bruises and bruises.
A flesh wound could be cured with a few medicines and a few days of recovery, but he refused to give her even a few days of free time...
It was night, Wei Li was breathing heavily in her ear, burying his head in the crook of her neck, enjoying this moment of joy and heat.
Xu Zhihuai's breathing was weak and his whole body ached.
Wei Li turned around faster than flipping through a book, quickly put on his clothes and stood up.
Xu Zhihuai gathered his nightgown, looked at his back, and said softly: "Master Marquis, this is not the way to go... What do we mean by this?"
Wei Li turned his head sideways: "When men love women, they each get what they need."
Xu Zhihuai took a deep breath and said, "I can do more than this. Please give me another chance."
Wei Li knew what she had been thinking about: "If you have something to say, you might as well say it."
"I want to go to Fengdu, I want to see the little princess."
Wei Li sneered: "With your ability, you dare to touch Marquis Fengdu?"
"Feng is the crown prince's worry."
Wei Li suddenly asked, "Is it the prince's heart problem or yours?"
Xu Zhihuai's heart trembled, fearing that he would see something, so he only said: "Your Highness's concerns are my concerns. Moreover, the little princess and I are sisters, and starting with her is the best way to get close to Marquis Fengdu."
Wei Li stared: "It's rare that you are willing to spend so much effort on the Crown Prince."
"The Marquis doesn't care for idle people, so I can't keep doing nothing like this."
While she was talking, she had already put on her clothes and tied her blouse.
Wei Li suddenly turned around and said, "Don't be so modest. Your ability to coax people has not declined at all."
Xu Zhihuai curled his lips, half-smiling but not smiling: "It's all thanks to the good teachings of Mr. Marquis."
She didn't want to anger him, so she took advantage of the situation and said, "Fengdu... I must go. Lord Marquis, please take me with you."
Wei Li was alert: "How do you know?"
As luck would have it, he had just received the secret order this morning and set off on a different day to Fengdu.
The purpose of this trip was very difficult. He wanted to find a way to assassinate the Marquis of Fengdu and return to Beijing with his head.
Xu Zhihuai explained calmly: "I guessed it."
"You're really good at guessing."
"Will the Marquis take me there?"
Xu Zhihuai was a little anxious and stood up to hold his sleeve, but he coldly brushed it away.
"I never bring women with me when I do things."
"Master Hou... I don't want to stay in the capital anymore. I want to leave."
Wei Li didn't believe that she really gave up the prince, the luxury of the palace, and the identity of Concubine Huai.
"Are you willing?"
Xu Zhihuai pretended to choke and said: "I have to let go even if I don't want to, I don't want to go back to the prince's side again."
Wei Li was dubious: "You'd better think so."
"Master Hou, I want to bring one more person with me this time."
Wei Li frowned: "Who?"
"Amelia Su."
After Wei Li heard the name, his mind turned around and he realized who this person was.
"What do you want that bastard to do?"
Xu Zhihuai was secretly afraid when he saw that he knew everything.
Fortunately, he had never doubted her identity, otherwise nothing would have been hidden from him.
"The Marquis doesn't know that Su Yu is very capable. Last time she sneaked into the palace to see me. She was determined to die and was very courageous."
Wei Li crossed his arms and smiled: "Xu Zhihuai, you are really dishonest."
Xu Zhihuai calmed down a little: "I only have Jinhua by my side. Now that my waist injury has not healed, I should bring an extra maid."
"You can find the person you want by yourself. It doesn't matter to me whether you take her with you or not."
Xu Zhihuai was surprised: "Master Hou, are you willing to let me leave the house?"
"The door of the Marquis Mansion cannot shut you."
Xu Zhihuai couldn't figure out his moody temperament, and just wanted to get Amelia Su back first while he agreed.
Su Yu worked as a prostitute in a brothel. With her stunning appearance and singing and dancing talents, she became a famous courtesan in less than half a month. Now, her name is no longer Su Yu, but Hongluan.
Her guests line up from dusk to midnight, and her fame grows.
Xu Zhihuai didn't have the ability to spend a lot of money to redeem her, so he asked Jinhua to pretend to be a vendor buying hairpins and send a note to Su Yu.
If you want to take revenge, I will meet you at the back door of Qingyi Hou Mansion tomorrow evening.
Amelia Su seemed to have already accepted her fate, but in fact she could not forget the hatred in her heart.
She wanted revenge at all costs, so she immediately gave up the scenery in the pink pile, and quietly escaped while she was out accompanying guests.
Three days later, Wei Li sent someone to take Xu Zhihuai out of the house.
There is already one more person beside Xu Zhihuai.
Su Yu put on simple clothes, which could not hide her gorgeous appearance, and her words and deeds no longer had the frivolous air of a happy party.
She swore a poisonous oath in front of Xu Zhihuai. As long as she could personally kill the betrayer, she was willing to follow her loyally for the rest of her life.
Xu Zhihuai was also very honest with her: "Now I am no longer the empress of the palace. In terms of status, I am not much better than you. I am also manipulated and cannot escape being manipulated. You begged me once before, but I didn't help you. I can't promise you anything now. Although you and I will be masters and servants in the future, it's actually me who wants to join forces with you. I really need someone who can handle things."
Su Yu was a little flattered and nodded repeatedly: "With the words of the empress, is Su Yu still afraid that there is no hope of revenge? I can wait!"
"Don't call me empress, I can't go back to the palace anymore."
Su Yu's face was full of regret: "Master has been wronged. Men... are not trustworthy after all."
The prince is also a man, and he can be ruthless and unjust.
Xu Zhihuai smiled sadly and said no more.
Jinhua was a little wary of Amelia Su, so she put all her valuables in a bag and held her tightly in her arms.
The simple carriage and the disguised entourage looked like the people of an ordinary merchant, very low-key.
The moment the carriage drove out of the palace gate, Xu Zhihuai lifted the curtain and took one last look at the capital.
Whether it's prosperity or sincerity, she no longer misses it.
Neither Wei Li nor the prince, she would take it to heart anymore.
Jinhua is careful in her work, and Su Yu has a bright eye. The two of them complement each other and do things thoughtfully.
After sitting in a carriage for a long time, my back is always sore.
After half a month, I changed to a boat and took the water route.
Xu Zhihuai saw no sign of Wei Li, thinking that he would not be traveling with him. Unexpectedly, he suddenly appeared at night and lay beside her quietly, scaring her breath away.
He lay down with his clothes on, and his body smelled of damp dust, as if he had been traveling for a long time.
Xu Zhihuai breathed slowly and sat up with the quilt in his arms: "Where did the Marquis come from?"
The boat kept moving and clearly never stopped.
