Liu Shui'er pointed to the tall pillar in the corner of the hall.
Everyone looked in the direction she was pointing—
A girl dressed in white was seen hiding behind a pillar, completely unaware of what was happening.
She did not show her face, only a glimpse of the hem of her skirt was visible, but it was still possible to tell that she was a woman!
Amidst the astonished expressions of Lianxiang and Xiyu, Liu Shuier revealed a victorious smile and slowly said, word by word, "Then let that young lady and gentleman... demonstrate a handstand!"
"The 'upside-down golden hook' is, as the name suggests, where the lady hangs on the young man's body, using her legs wrapped around his waist for support, and leans backward until she can't go any further."
As the woman leans back further, she needs more leverage, and her legs wrap around her waist more tightly, so the parts of their skin that touch will become closer and closer!
This punishment is not commonly used because it requires a very high level of physical fitness from the man; he cannot be so thin that he cannot hold the woman, nor so strong that the woman cannot wrap her legs around him.
Liu Shui'er smiled faintly and said, "With your strong and powerful physique, young master, you will surely be able to complete this action."
The girl who was being pointed at clearly hadn't realized the seriousness of the situation and didn't come out for a long time under the watchful eyes of everyone.
Hu Yanhongxue originally thought she would choose Lianxiang or Xiyu, since that was what she did for the first two, but she didn't expect her to go against the grain this time.
He raised an eyebrow with interest.
Even more exciting!
So he walked over there, ready to find out what was going on.
Given his unrestrained nature, if it were a plain-looking girl... he would have to pay money to break the contract.
Everyone fell silent, knowing the unspoken message, and couldn't help but feel a little worried for Hu Yanhongxue.
Of the women in this gold-burning cave, apart from Liu Shui'er who could rival Lian Xiangxi Yu in beauty, the others were only slightly attractive and not worth seeing.
It's really a waste of such a handsome young man like him!
Among the crowd, only Xiao Ziwu didn't even turn his head, appearing completely uninterested and indifferent.
The hall fell into an eerie silence—you could hear a pin drop.
Tianyun nudged Lingqi's back, who was in a daze, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Why is it so quiet?"
Could it be that His Highness has once again pushed another woman who threw herself into his arms?!
With that thought in mind, Tianyun couldn't resist and quietly peeked out from behind the beams and pillars again.
In the corners where the light couldn't reach, the last sliver of flickering lamplight was completely obscured by Hu Yanhongxue's tall figure.
Tianyun looked up in bewilderment and met Huyan Hongxue's sharp, hound-like black eyes.
These beautiful eyes were like a pool of clear water, and against the backdrop of darkness, they resembled a boundless dark lake studded with tiny stars.
It gave him the illusion that he was trapped in a swamp and couldn't save himself!
Hu Yanhongxue narrowed his eyes slightly. The white-clad girl's beautiful body was exposed to his gaze. He took a step back and suddenly unveiled the layers of clouds.
Light rushed in, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.
This face...
Hu Yanhongxue's dark, sharp pupils shrank dramatically.
The heart feels like it's trapped inside a bronze bell, and someone is striking it repeatedly with a thick bell pestle!
He could only hear muffled thuds coming from the trembling lake in his heart, while his ears were ringing and he couldn't hear the sounds coming from the surrounding fields.
She hid it so well, how did she suddenly give herself away?
Tianyun covered her face in panic, "Who...who are you? Give me back my veil!"
Judging from this person's attire, he doesn't seem to be from Kyoto, and since he's with His Highness, he must be an envoy from Siam paying tribute.
Even if they are envoys from allied nations, he can't just lay hands on them.
lecher!
The girl behind the pillar didn't seem to be one of the women in the building. Liu Shui'er, sitting on the round platform, frowned slightly upon hearing this unfamiliar voice, a sudden sense of foreboding creeping into her heart.
Xiao Ziwu's reaction was even stronger than hers; he strode over there immediately.
He could not mistake that voice for one he had heard countless times in his dreams.
How did my darling end up here?
“I am Huyan Hongxue, the seventh prince of Siam.” Huyan Hongxue took a deep breath, calmed his racing heart, and curled his lips into a roguish smile. “Give me a kiss, and I’ll give it back to you.”
Tianyun glared at him speechlessly, "You're dreaming."
Finally, she stood on tiptoe to reach the veil he held high above her head.
Hu Yanhongxue was eight feet tall. When he raised his hand, Tianyun couldn't reach him even if he jumped up. Since Tianyun didn't want to get too close to him, he had no choice but to give up.
She tried in vain to raise her sleeve to cover her face.
At this moment, she was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered on a chopping board, only thinking about making a quick escape before His Highness discovered her!
"You're not one of the girls in this building," Hu Yanhongxue said definitively. "Tell this prince your name quickly!"
He took two more steps forward, opening his arms as if to pull her into his embrace.
Since she refused to reveal her name, the punishment still had to be carried out. So he simply pulled the beauty into his arms, ensuring she couldn't escape...
It's not too late to question them in detail then!
But the next moment, his outstretched hands were roughly separated by an iron arm—
Hu Yanhongxue's inherent vigilance made him turn around quickly and strike out with his palm, his powerful internal energy flowing out continuously from his hand.
Seeing this, Xiao Ziwu exchanged a palm strike with him, but did not use his full strength, otherwise Hu Yanhongxue would have been knocked away and crashed into Tianyun behind him.
The clash of palms surprised both sides.
Xiao Ziwu was surprised to learn that this extremely lecherous Siamese prince, who seemed to be displaying his peacock-like plumage at all times, was actually quite skilled in martial arts!
