Chapter Thirty-Six: Cloud Feather CP Palace Expedition 6
"After all, I'm just too beautiful. My brother's worried that someone else will steal me away. This information is guaranteed to be true!"
Song Xinning patted her pretty little face, took out a small mirror from her sleeve, and looked at herself in the dim light.
Great! Although my hairstyle is a bit messy, it still has a unique beauty. It's still a pretty day.
The slightly noisy atmosphere suddenly fell silent, and the bride looked at Song Xinning.
She was indeed beautiful, even though her clothes and hair were disheveled from being imprisoned in the dungeon, which added a touch of pitiful beauty that made people want to care for her and feel sorry for her.
Therefore, Song Xinning's words cannot be called narcissism; they are simply the facts.
The group turned around and left the cage one after another, but they all kept a certain distance from Gong Ziyu.
Although they were very grateful to Gong Ziyu for saving them, the words "frequent visitors to brothels" were still a shock.
This immediately dispelled the brides' goodwill towards Gong Ziyu.
I'm grateful, but I still don't like it; at most, I won't feel disgusted.
"No, I didn't..."
Gong Ziyu hesitated, unsure of what to say. He knew Song Xinning was telling the truth, and he couldn't refute her.
He went to the brothel only because it was peaceful there, while the palace gates made him feel oppressed.
But he knew that no one would believe him even if he explained, so he kept quiet. Now was not the time to explain.
Song Xinning lifted her skirt and carefully waded through the water, following behind Gong Ziyu as she and the other brides left the dungeon.
As soon as I stepped out of the dungeon, I felt a cold wind.
Song Xinning shivered and looked at Gong Ziyu, who was wearing a thick cloak in front of her.
Ah~ I really want to take off his cloak and put it on myself!
Gong Ziyu felt a chill run down her spine. She looked around but found nothing unusual, so she continued leading the way.
"Hey, where are you going? Don't waste time, okay? This is a race against time, not a vacation."
Song Xinning deliberately stood in the same row as Yun Weishan, and called her back when she was about to leave the group.
"Could it be that you are the assassin Wufeng, and that's why you don't want to leave the palace?" one of the brides guessed.
Yun Weishan glanced at Song Xinning with a cryptic look, then, seeing the suspicious looks from Gong Ziyu and Jin Fan, hurriedly explained:
"No, I don't believe that Young Master Yu is truly willing to take us out. When we reached the shore, I looked up and saw the tall tower."
I remember the tower was clearly near the city gate, but now we're getting further and further away from it.
"What's the big deal? We're escaping for our lives, why would we go through the main gate? My brother sneaked out of the house through a dog hole, not the main gate." The bride paused and looked at Gong Ziyu.
"We're not going through a dog hole too, are we?"
Crawling through a dog hole is improper, but they were escaping for their lives... Although it's hard to accept, let's not worry about it too much.
She had just convinced herself when another bride refuted her.
"What are you thinking? The city gate tower is different from our own courtyard wall. Where would a dog hole come from?"
"That's true."
"Alright, let's stop talking now and hurry up, the patrol will be here soon."
Gong Ziyu interrupted the brides' discussion and led them forward.
Jin Fan retreated behind the brides, keeping his eyes fixed on them, with a particular focus on Yun Weishan.
Gong Ziyu led them to a city wall, pressed a mechanism, and a secret passage about half a person's height appeared in front of the bride.
"This secret passage leads out of the Old Dust Valley, but it is full of traps and mechanisms, so be careful."
