My father, on horseback, is the empire's dragon commander; off horseback, he is the current prime minister. People call me the Young Prime Minister.
My father and I both feared being slau...
You're so sexy!
Zhao Cheng secretly gave Li Guanyu a thumbs up for his shamelessness, but had no objection to his actions.
In all likelihood, if Chen Yuxian and her daughter were indeed taken by Li Guanyu, their lives would definitely be better than in Tianguifang.
The clientele of brothels also varied. Places like Heaven on Earth were frequented only by the very wealthy. Other brothels catered to ordinary people. But those who frequented Tian Gui Fang mostly had ulterior motives.
The girls of Tianguifang were often subjected to humiliation, with special activities added to create a sense of disillusionment. As a result, most of them suffered greatly.
Zhao Cheng simply listened to this matter and didn't want to get involved.
Deng Fugui understood and said, "Young master, if you like Chen Feier, then you can help me do some ideological work on her. That way, once she starts operating, you can take good care of her business."
Li Guanyu declared righteously, "How can one share their beloved with another?!"
Zhao Cheng interjected, "Didn't you just say that you were in half a month and Xu An was in half a month?"
Li Guanyu blushed and said, "Young Prime Minister, please don't cause trouble."
"Oh dear, look at my mouth, isn't it good enough to eat? Why do I have to talk?" Zhao Cheng patted his mouth.
Li Guanyu said, "Lord Deng, if this matter is accomplished, I, Li Guanyu, will remember this immense kindness you have shown me!"
“This is difficult to handle…” Deng Fugui shook his head and said, “If it were anyone else, it would be fine, but Chen Yuxian’s identity as a spy for Southern Zhou has a very bad influence. There are still many people in the city talking about it. Especially the Su family, who are engaged to the Chen family, have been saying all sorts of bad things about Chen Feier lately. There are too many rumors, and everyone is watching this mother and daughter.”
"All the rumors are no match for a single word from you, Lord Deng."
Li Guanyu walked up to Deng Fugui and, without any airs, pulled out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve and stuffed them into Deng Fugui's hand.
Deng Fugui glanced at the face value of the banknote and his eyes lit up immediately.
Li Guanyu said softly, "This is just a token of respect for today's visit. If things go well..."
As he spoke, Li Guanyu glanced at Chai Xin and said, "I will repay you and the Inspector even more."
Chai Xin's eyes flashed, and he said, "Lord Deng, you are kind-hearted. This matter has already been delayed for several days. Why not delay it for a few more days and let the young master do some persuasion for the mother and son?"
Deng Fugui paced back and forth, then paused for a moment before leaning closer to Li Guanyu and saying, "Then I'll trouble you to go and persuade him?"
"I will definitely persuade them not to give up on life and to get back on the right path!"
Li Guanyu bowed to Deng Fugui, overjoyed.
Deng Fugui's words were tacit approval; whether it came to fruition or not was up to Li Guanyu.
You can try to persuade the mother and daughter to follow you; if they are willing, then they can. But I will never personally hand them over to you.
If they don't want to be with you, then you're not attractive enough.
In short, it has nothing to do with me!
After the deal was settled and Zhao Cheng had had his fill of the excitement, he was about to leave when Li Guanyu grabbed him.
"Young Prime Minister, there's no time to lose, let's hurry under the cover of night!"
Zhao Cheng asked, "Where to?"
"Go find Chen Feier!"
"What does it have to do with me if you're supporting other people's wives and daughters?"
“You have a lot of ideas. If he doesn’t agree with me, give me some suggestions.”
"No, no!" Zhao Cheng shook off Li Guanyu's hand.
Li Guanyu immediately said, "Chen Yuxian was killed by Commander Yang. Is the young prime minister afraid of that mother and daughter?"
"joke!"
Zhao Cheng laughed loudly, "You think I'm afraid of them? I'm worried that after I go, Chen Feier will give you the cold shoulder and then come with me!"
"Hahaha, young prime minister, you're joking! You are her father's killer, she would never go with you, no matter who she goes with!"
Never heard of Stockholm Syndrome?
"What brother, what touch?"
"Fine, fine, I know you're trying to provoke me, but I'll go with you!"
Zhao Cheng flicked his sleeve and said, "I want to see what this woman, whom you, Li Guanyu, praised as the most beautiful woman in Yanchuan, who usually stays in her boudoir, really looks like!"
"Young Prime Minister, please!"
...
The Chen family's property has been confiscated, and Madam Chen and Chen Feier are temporarily under house arrest in a small, dilapidated house in the Ministry of Justice.
Accompanied by Chai Xin, the dilapidated house was opened, and Zhao Cheng and the others went straight inside.
The house was simple, but it had two rooms, one inside and one outside.
As soon as the group entered the outer room, a sharp sound came from the inner room, and then a woman came out.
"No, no! Just kill my daughter and me!"
Zhao Cheng saw that the woman had a dignified demeanor. Although she had fallen to such a state, her clothes were neat and her hair was meticulously styled, showing traces of her former elegance and nobility.
Zhao Cheng couldn't help but sigh, no wonder Li Guanyu had designs on both the mother and daughter at the same time.
Not to mention that Chen Feier inherited Madam Chen's looks, just under the influence of Madam Chen's temperament and skincare habits, Chen Feier would not be bad at all.
Madam Chen thought they were yamen runners who had come to take them to Tiangui Lane, but upon seeing the demeanor and clothing of Zhao Cheng and the other two, she realized she had misunderstood.
"You must be Madam Chen?" Li Guanyu said first.
Madam Chen nodded and asked, "Who are you?"
Li Guanyu smiled and said, "My name is Li Guanyu, and this lady next to me is Xu An."
As he spoke, Li Guanyu turned to the side, pointed to Zhao Cheng behind him, and said, "He is Zhao Cheng."
"The three of us have come to rescue you and Miss Fei'er from this dire situation..."
"Zhao Cheng!!!"
Upon hearing this name, Madam Chen shoved Li Guanyu aside and pointed at Zhao Cheng, saying, "You're Zhao Cheng from the Right Prime Minister's residence?"
