Heartburn - Chapter 100
I was awakened in a jolt.
The brain was dizzy for a moment, it was running stagnant, as if a ball of cotton was stuffed in; my ears roared like a hurricane, and I blinked vigorously, facing the darkness, I almost thought that I had lost the light. .
The next moment I felt my eyelashes rubbing against the rough cloth, my mouth was held back by the thick cloth, and I couldn’t open my mouth. I put my hands behind my back, tied his hands and feet together in a very humiliating posture, and lay down on the rigid car board. , It hurts with the slight shaking-the frequency of this shaking taught me to judge that I was in a moving carriage.
The darkness in front of me and the **** on my body revealed the fact that I was kidnapped.
The only good thing is that I am still alive. I am not blind or missing arms or legs, although every part of my body is clamoring for pain.
The inside of the carriage was very quiet, completely different from the noise of shouting and shouting outside, as if I was the only one… This knowledge taught me to move my feet tentatively, trying to use my strength to turn sideways-the prolonged lying down made me feel bad. I felt a little pain in my chest, so I had to change my position in order to breathe smoothly.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he moved, he heard a male voice sneer and said, “Huh, I woke up very quickly.”
This voice, I will not admit it wrong, it will take me out of the palace and stun my Zizheng!
I struggled to get away from the shackles of my hands and feet and the cloth strips covering my eyes and mouth, but it was of no use except to burn the skin of my wrists and ankles.
Instead, the other party snorted disdainfully: “You don’t need to waste your energy. With your unusable small body, you are not as good as me as a man, and you want to break this thick hemp rope? Overwhelmingly.”
He was right, it was just that under my impulse, I suddenly lost my mind-now being so mocked by him, I gave up the struggle and panted lightly to regain my strength.
I waited patiently for a while, and deliberately asked him the reason, but couldn’t speak. I could only bite the cloth strip in his mouth angrily, thinking about the way to escape.
But when he heard him snorting coldly, as if he had seen through my thoughts, he explained to himself: “Are you thinking, why should I do this? I feel that I will avenge revenge, deceive you, and betray you?”
——Some criminals often don’t feel that they have done anything wrong, and are even willing to show their modus operandi in front of their victims and state their motives in order to get greater satisfaction from them.
It seems that he is no exception.
I listened quietly and nodded.
It stands to reason that he really wanted me to surrender to Jiang Zhuo and tell me my plan to escape.
In this way, even if I don’t suffer any substantial harm, at least I will be imprisoned in the palace cage for the rest of my life, depressed.
In turn, he has to take huge risks, and once things are revealed, the consequences will be disastrous.
It can be said that he is making a big bet, and I still can’t guess the reason for his bet.
“Do you still remember Mi Sheng?” He suddenly took off my blindfold, his eyes lit up, and I blinked against the light-colored eyes of the yin bird, I didn’t know what to answer-if I shook my head, I just blinked. I was afraid it would irritate him. If he nodded, but he was very guilty: I really don’t have the slightest impression of the Mi Sheng in his mouth.
In other words, in Kuang Xihan’s memory, there has never been the slightest ripple.
Of course, although he unbuttoned my blindfold, he did not untie the cloth strips in my mouth. Even if I could answer, I couldn’t make a sound, which saved me from the embarrassment of hesitating.
Before I could come up with a reason, he sneered and then added: “Well, with your scum, how can you still remember a third-class palace attendant? Pity my brother is pure-minded, partial I believed your rhetoric and expected to be carried into the Ling Palace to be a side husband. It was too naive…”
——In that case, it should be your brother who is greedy for wealth, so why is it blamed on me?
If it’s not that I can’t speak, I must refute him frankly: a third-class servant, just be a servant, is Xiao wanting to be a side husband?
Going from a low-level palace to the branch and turning into a phoenix, in this rigorous Dawu, it is whimsical.
However, even if Kwong Xihan made up a lie and deceived his elder brother, she would be blamed for being lucky, but she was not guilty of death, right?
He continued to say: “Unexpectedly, the emperor asked you if you want to accept my brother as a side husband, but you deny it, and you bite and accuse my brother of seduce you, so you can’t do it…. The next day, my brother was given. A glass of poisoned wine.”
——It turned out that the final result was a death.
If what Zizheng said is true, then it is indeed Kuang Xihan’s fault. He harbors resentment and is understandable… The problem is that the culprit has long been gone, but he left this mess to me.
I sighed helplessly, explained it deliberately, but couldn’t talk about it, I shook my head and closed my eyes lightly.
“Don’t worry, I won’t kill you.” Seeing me closing my eyes, thinking I was afraid, the young boy smiled gloomily, “Is it too cheap to kill you so simply?”
Hearing his different tone, I quickly opened my eyes and got a crazy look at him. I couldn’t help but feel scared: “I want you to be unable to survive, to die, to taste the most humiliating days in the world. ——A thousand times, a hundred times more humiliating than my Rouran palace slave!”
The deep pain and sorrow in his eyes shocked me, and for a moment I forgot the anger and anger towards him.
Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and he withdrew his eyes, pulled my blindfold back, then got up and left the carriage.
When he listened attentively, he could only vaguely discern the voice of him talking with another woman. The words of the two seemed to be related to numbers.
In the end, it was the strange woman who jumped into the carriage-because I smelled a strong scent of fat and rice, which did not belong to Zizheng.
“He’s gone?” Feeling her sniffles approaching constantly, I couldn’t avoid it, so I asked aloud, “Who are you again?”
“Tsk, the little beauty not only looks good, but also has a delicate throat, but she was born to be a flower girl.” The woman unbuttoned my blindfold, and while laughing, she stretched out her hand and stroked my face. .
“Presumptuous! You…” After pretending to be Ling Ling for a long time, she learned a bit about her aura and taught the strange woman to be frivolous, almost subconsciously scolded.
“Yeah, pretty handsome? Yes, what you want is this scorching energy! That stinky boy also pointed out that he would sell you to the lowest kiln. It seems that you have offended him cruelly…” She The words taught me that I couldn’t help but froze, and then a chill came from my back—the “kiln” she just mentioned, wouldn’t it be the kind of wind and moon place I understand?
Before I could react, I heard her continue to say, “But don’t worry, you can’t do the violent stupid things like those who pity and cherish the jade… With your appearance, is it a waste to sell it in a common hook? That’s it? The Gaomen Yuyuli, who entered Doujin on that day, also went to get it – if there is a chance in the future, wouldn’t it be a good thing to be lucky enough to be a guest of the young lady?”
“Don’t think about it! Let me go! Do you know who I am…” No matter how I yelled, due to the cloth strips in my mouth, I could only make a cry of “Uuuuuuu” without any threat.
She smiled disapprovingly, rolled up her sleeves and brushed it across my face-I only felt a scent of smell coming from my nose, and then fainted.
I don’t know how long I slept, and when I woke up, it was another scene.
Limbs and necks are still sore, but they are no longer bound by ropes, but placed in the soft bedding. The cloth strips in the mouth and the blindfold on the face have been removed, and the clothes on the body seem to have been changed… etc. Wait, who helped me change clothes?
Thinking of this, my heart tensed, and I immediately wanted to sit up, only to find that although my hands and feet were intact, I couldn’t get any strength at all, as if I was under general anesthesia, and I couldn’t move.
Panicking, I suddenly thought of the strange woman’s words, and I turned my face to look at the house I was in with difficulty—the beautifully painted screen blocked the door from sight, and the curling incense made people sleepy. , The lotus root color gauze tent next to the bed is even more charming…Although it is gorgeously decorated, it can’t conceal the dusty smell. Could it be that this is where she talks about making money?
I was guessing in my heart. I heard a soft “squeak”, a young man with a painted fan in his hand and a thin face pushed in the door. Seeing me looking up at him, he was not surprised, but aroused. Laughing: “Wake up? What discomfort does your body have?”
This man has a pair of romantic peach eyes, the corners of his mouth are naturally upturned, and he smiles before saying a word. He is born with a charming look. It is an ordinary question. He also taught him to talk three times, which is very sultry. .
“Who are you? Why am I here?” I knew he might not answer, but I couldn’t help asking, “Also, did you drug me? Why can’t I move?”
“Me, it’s the steward here——Ming Yan, you can call me Brother Yan,” he smiled, “As for you, I bought it for a few hundred taels of silver… Don’t worry. You can move in just one hour.”
——A few hundred taels of silver?
Was it worth the price?
With a ridiculous smile, holding the last glimmer of hope, I asked the man who claimed to be in charge: “Where is this?”
“Here…” He waved the fan in his hand, and cast a wink at me, smiling Yan Yan, but he seemed to mock my fluke, “If you don’t have money, you can’t come in, and if you have money, you can’t come in. The gentle town that everyone likes is also the Golden Cave-Caiyun Pavilion that everyone hates.”
“…Oh, that’s the case.” Turning my head, I glanced at the top of the bed engraved with Fengyuechun, I slowly closed my eyes, and my heart sank to the bottom.
——How can I not remember this name?
It’s really ironic to be sold to an industry under his own name.
Caiyun Pavilion, but a famous… brothel.
