Night has completely fallen outside the study door, and the light of the lanterns on all sides has gradually pierced the night.
Inside the room, Mrs. Shen Xu lay weakly on her side on the cold wooden floor, crying bitterly with tears flowing all over the floor, and the makeup on her face was stained. As soon as she was let go, while crying, she quickly stretched out her arms and pulled up her skirt. Then he pulled up his shirt to cover his shoulders. He grabbed the collar tightly with both hands and pulled it toward the middle, completely covering his body.
For some reason, the pain only came slowly now, causing her body to tremble and her mind to be in a mess. The chaos in her heart was not only the indignation of having her innocence tarnished, but also the hidden worry and humiliation.
She was worried, because women were not like men who could just do it easily. The moment she was raped, she thought about the possibility of getting pregnant. Not every wom
The night is getting darker, and the scene in the palace is even more gorgeous under the lights.Zhu Gaoxu did not go back to his palace, but went straight to Du Qianrui's place, because even if Du Qianrui noticed something, she would not tell it.Among the corridors on both sides of the palace, one of the courtyards is Du Qianrui's residence. Zhu Gaoxu sat down at the table and waited for her to prepare some food and wine for the table; he hadn't had dinner yet.At this time, Zhu Gaoxu raised his sleeves and brought it to his nose to smell it a few times. There was still a faint smell of Shen Xu's body.Sure enough, Du Qianrui didn't ask anything. She brought up the jug, poured the wine for Zhu Gaoxu with her own hands, and said softly, "After I have eaten, I will drink two glasses of wine with the prince.""You sit down too." Zhu Gaoxu said nicely."Thank you, Your Majesty." Du Qianrui took her seat and asked cautiously, "Does Your Majest
Green rice fields formed a vast expanse of rolling fields, dotted with peach, plum and cherry trees. In the depths of the landscape stood a house with white walls and green tiles, surrounded by a wall. This was the Geng family's manor."Father, why don't you invite our family to your aunt's birthday?"The question Geng Hao asked seemed extremely difficult to answer. His father Geng Qi pondered for a long time and could not answer it.There were bloodshot eyes in Geng Hao's eyes, as if there were two balls of fire burning in his eyeballs. He was not just so angry today. Ever since he came back from the opera garden last time, Geng Hao felt like he had thorns all over his body, and no one dared to provoke him!The man who paid twenty strings of cash for Geng Hao and rescued Mu Zhen in the Pear Garden was actually the King of Han, Zhu Gaoxu.Geng Hao knew a lot and didn't dare to say anything bad about Zhu Gaoxu in front of outsiders, because that m
The Mu Mansion was very noisy inside and outside. I don't know how many people gathered here. In addition to the guests, there were also the guests' grooms, servants, and even their families. The servants of the Mu Mansion were also busy.Many guests went through the south gate, but there were also many people at the east gate. The birthday banquet was in need of some things, and a servant had just purchased them and was delivering them to the gate; the opera troupe from the Pear Garden was also moving things, and the servants of the Mu Mansion came to help.Duan Xuehen wore a servant's clothes, took a drum from a carriage, and walked straight into the west gate.She put some dark powder on her face, and her complexion looked as dark as many slaves, but she was still a little nervous when she walked to the door. The sunlight was glaring, and she was a little unaccustomed to it as she rarely saw the sun.Finally she stepped through the threshold, and sh
Zhu Gaoxu still remembers vividly the scene of Geng Bingwen, Marquis of Changxing, dying on the battlefield.Before his death, Geng Bingwen said that he would rather die in battle than suffer humiliation in old age, and asked Gao Xu to help him achieve his goal. The old general grabbed Zhu Gaoxu's knife and ended his life.Zhu Gaoxu thought about the past again and still had no regrets, because he felt that even if Geng Bingwen had not died on the battlefield, he might not have survived; in that case, it would be better for a general who had spent his whole life in military service to die on the battlefield.Today, Zhu Gaoxu saw Geng Bingwen's sister at the birthday banquet, and wanted to tell her that he killed the Marquis of Changxing because he respected him from the bottom of his heart. But Zhu Gaoxu didn't say it in the end, after all, it was inappropriate to bring up the sad things of the Geng family at the birthday banquet.Mrs. Mu's birthday ba
Du Erlang took the things and found an excuse to leave the Northern Pacification Office before his shift was over. He did not return to his residence, but decided to go directly to Jade Street and hand the things over to the people there.If something were to happen, as long as the file was not found in his hands, the Northern Pacification Office would have no evidence; even if there were confessions from Captain Li and others, it would be empty words and could not prove Du Erlang's crime of stealing files from the warehouse!Du Erlang learned all these ideas from Ji Gang. In Du Erlang's eyes, Ji Gang was a very powerful person.Although the commander was evil-minded and greedy, he was very methodical in his work and could even recite poetry! Du Erlang saw with his own eyes that once Ji Gang came out of the imperial prison with blood all over his face, but he was still shaking his head and reciting poetry, looking very strange.Du Erlang certainly thou
There were not many people left in the old palace of the King of Han in the capital, only a few slaves were left to look after the empty house.When Zhao Ping left the jade shop, it was past the hour of You. As soon as he returned to the old mansion, the sky gradually darkened. If it were not summer, it would have darkened even faster.Just as he was about to go to Wang Gui's room, he was stopped by a soldier. The soldier clasped his fists and said, "Captain Zhao, please wait a moment. There is someone in Eunuch Wang's room.""Who?" Zhao Ping asked casually.The soldier took two steps forward and said mysteriously, "The girl from Zuixianlou has been here for a while. I guess she will come out if we wait a little longer."Zhao Ping was surprised and said, "Eunuch Wang is not a eunuch...Eunuchs also want to find prostitutes?"The sergeant laughed and said, "Eunuch Wang wants to look for him, and we can't stop him."Zhao Ping stood at th
In early July, Chen Dachui returned to Yunnan alone. Zhu Gaoxu came to the study room on the east side of the front hall and immediately summoned Chen Dachui.Chen Dachui's hair was covered in dust, and he hadn't changed his clothes in who knows how long; sweat and dirt mixed into black mud, which accumulated on his neck and formed two obvious black lines along the wrinkles of his skin."I have been traveling non-stop all the way. I just arrived at the city and haven't had time to go home yet." Chen Dachui's dirty face looked tired. "I have something urgent to report to the prince."Zhu Gaoxu personally picked up the teapot, poured tea into a blue and white porcelain cup, and handed it over, "Sit down and talk.""Thank you, Your Highness." Chen Dachui picked up the teacup and took a big gulp, leaving several black fingerprints on the white porcelain cup.Chen Dachui pulled open his cross-collared coat with both hands and put his palm inside. He h
In the quiet warm room, there was an occasional "swish" sound of turning papers. Yao Ji was eagerly flipping through the book, and Zhu Gaoxu was sitting silently on the round stool.At this time, Zhu Gaoxu remembered a subtlety of something that he had originally overlooked.That time, Zhu Gaoxu wanted to secretly pick up Sheng Yong's family, but fortunately Yao Ji reminded him; because of this, he was able to confirm Yao Ji's identity as a traitor!Before Yao Ji was exposed, she asked Zhu Gaoxu to play horse riding with her... It was very childish, and only children would play it. But Yao Ji, who was not very old, was not the kind of cute little girl.Zhu Gaoxu only realized now that Yao Ji might have thought of her father at that time. Many people have obsessions, but could it be that Yao Ji's obsession was with her biological father?Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoxu said, "It's been too long, and Yao Fengji has escaped again. It's hard to find a cl
