The madam of Qunfang Pavilion.

The constable, holding a scabbard, slashed at him.

Before long, the man was a bloody mess.

The madam of Qunfang Pavilion seemed to want to leave.

Su Yong followed behind with Li Shiye.

backyard.

The dozen or so women looked blank.

Madam Jia glanced at the woman and said with a smile, "Oh dear, these are all... pitiful people. Come with me, girls."

The woman shook her head.

Mother Jia said in a low voice, "Do you know that you signed a contract with the Chu family, which means that from the moment you pressed your fingerprints on the ground..."

You no longer belong to yourselves.

The Chu family secretly transported refugees, causing a plague to spread throughout the city.

Everything in the manor related to the Chu family ended badly.
