When Jiang Yimian woke up, it was already dawn, but the gloomy sky outside made it impossible to tell whether it was morning or evening.
I had just finished washing up when I heard a noisy sound of footsteps coming from outside the courtyard.
"I heard that two new bed warmers have arrived at the yamen. Where are they? Why don't you call them out for me to see?"
As soon as Zhou Ling entered the courtyard, he looked around excitedly.
However, his excitement immediately subsided when he saw Liu'er standing at the door. He frowned and said, "She's really an eyesore. How can someone so ugly be worthy of being my bed warmer?"
People from the capital really have strong tastes.
He looked Liu'er up and down, his eyes full of criticism.
After getting closer, he stared at it for a while before stroking his chin and laughing, "It's not as ugly as I thought. If you cover up the birthmark, it's barely acceptable to this young master."
It's been raining a lot lately, and his father is keeping a close eye on him, not letting him run around. He hasn't been able to search for beauties in the city for several days now.
Yesterday, I heard from the yamen that someone from the capital had arrived, accompanied by two beautiful concubines. And those concubines even dared to go against Magistrate Chen.
Chen Tongzhi was his father's dog; slapping Chen Tongzhi was slapping his father's face, so naturally he had to teach these people a lesson.
So what if they're from the capital? In Qingnan, they all have to listen to their father.
Thinking it over, he glanced at the person in front of him and said, "Come here and give me a shoulder massage. If you serve me well, I might consider having you warm my bed tonight."
These words are flippant; if an ordinary woman heard them, she would probably be furious.
Liu'er glanced at him but didn't say anything, and started walking into the house on her own.
Zhou Ling was immediately angered by being ignored. He took a few steps forward, grabbed Liu'er's shoulder, and said angrily, "You, a bed warmer, dare to give me attitude? Do you believe I'll kill you right now?"
Liu'er simply brushed the hand off her shoulder, too lazy to pay him any attention.
Zhou Ling was furious and shouted, "Guards, grab this slut and strip her clothes off!"
I want to see how this slut seduces those people in the capital.
As soon as he said this, all the guards behind him rushed forward, and two of them held Liu'er's arm tightly.
Liu'er frowned, unsure of what to do. Taking action would surely displease the prefect.
Judging from the clothes on the man in front of me, I know he is no ordinary person. To be able to swagger around in the government office like this, he must be the son of the prefect.
They've just entered the city and haven't figured out the situation yet. Completely offending the prefect is not a good thing.
They might all be imprisoned by the prefect.
As she hesitated, a guard's hand touched her collar.
The guard had a malicious look on his face and his words were full of teasing. "So, the young lady did it on purpose, deliberately angering my young master, just to have her clothes taken off in public, is that it?"
Then I'll grant your wish.
The people around burst into laughter.
Zhou Ling also looked smug, and his gaze toward Liu'er became even more intense.
Although he had slept with many people before, including girls trained in brothels and respectable women, each with their own unique flavor, this was the first time he had stripped someone's clothes in front of so many people, and just thinking about it was exciting.
I should try this kind of thing more often in the future.
Thinking it over, he shouted, "What are you dawdling for? Hurry up and strip this slut's clothes off so everyone can have a good look at her."
The guards just shouted excitedly.
Just as the large hand was about to tear open Liu'er's collar, the door in the corner was suddenly opened.
Accompanying it was a sharp curved dagger.
With a "thud," the dagger pierced the guard's hand, causing him to instantly pull his hand back in pain. Clutching his bleeding hand, he cried out, "Ah, who, who did this?"
His response was a seemingly weak fist, but the force of that fist was considerable, knocking him to the ground instantly, spitting out a mouthful of blood mixed with a few teeth.
The other guards were stunned when they saw this.
Jiang Yimian pulled Liu'er behind her and said coldly, "The prefectural government still has such a disgusting lecher."
Is there no law left in this world?
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ling laughed heartily, forgetting even his anger, his face full of mockery. "The law? In Qingnan, my father is the law, and I am the law."
You're nothing but a bed warmer, yet you dare to injure my guard? I think you're asking for trouble.
"If you come and serve me for one night and make me comfortable, I might consider sparing your life."
This little bitch is quite pretty; her aloof and otherworldly demeanor just now made him a little distracted.
No wonder he could ride on that transport commissioner's head; he really does have some ability.
It looks rather fierce; I'm afraid I'll need to give it some medicine.
Just as he was pondering this, Jiang Yimian sneered and said indifferently, "You can try."
Let's see who really doesn't want to live.
Zhou Ling's eyes lit up, and his smile became a bit lewd. He rubbed his hands together in disbelief and said, "You said it yourself."
Even after being given medication, she's still not as energetic as when she's fully awake. And she's such a fierce little firecracker. After not having any meat for so long, she's brought over a delicious dish today.
As he finished speaking, just as he was about to boldly walk towards Jiang Yimian, he was suddenly stopped by someone, "Young Master Zhou, what are you doing?"
Zhang Duyun entered from outside the courtyard. Meeting Jiang Yimian's cold gaze, he boldly said, "Young Master Zhou, I have something I wish to discuss with you. Please come with me to the next courtyard."
Just kidding. He had seen Jiang's murderous glare many times along the way. It was obvious that Jiang was really angry. What if Jiang really killed Zhou Ling in a fit of rage?
Then they can forget about returning to the capital, especially since the officials from the Censorate haven't arrived yet, and there's no one who can protect them.
Even if this person wanted to kill them, no one would know.
He couldn't just stand by and watch Xiao Jiang ruin his chance to return to Beijing.
Zhou Ling frowned, gave him a displeased look, and said irritably, "Who are you? I have important business to attend to right now, get out of the way."
As he spoke, he pushed the person aside and stared intently at Jiang Yimian.
He was determined to have this woman today. She dared to seduce him in broad daylight; he didn't know how wonderful it would be tonight.
Zhang Duyun quickly stepped in front of him again, smiling, and said, "I am the supervisor of this shipment of supplies. Young Master Zhou, I am..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Ling interrupted him impatiently, saying, "These two are your bed warmers, aren't they? This young master has taken a liking to them."
"Tonight is all mine. If you feel lonely, go to a brothel and hire a girl."
He finally encountered a stunning beauty, and she was so bold; how could he let her go, even if she had been with someone else?
He wants to try it today.
After saying that, he waved to the guards.
The guards immediately understood and stepped forward to stop Zhang Duyun, who was still trying to obstruct Zhou Ling.
