Chapter 133 Curiosity Kills the Cat
"South of Prince Qi's Mansion?" Liu Jinshu murmured in a low voice.
Is there really an underground secret passage in Prince Qi’s Mansion?
Liu Jinshu approached Yu Wushuang and whispered, "But Master Yu, this King Qi is a fake. Do you also want to find a job for him?"
"He is the son of Duke Gao, not your Majesty's child."
Yu Wushuang's face froze, he cleared his throat, and looked at Zi Xuan beside him.
This Liu Jinshu is indeed an idiot. He is not afraid of being killed by the King of Qi.
He whispered, "Concubine Liu, if these words were to reach the ears of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi, do you know the consequences?"
Liu Jinshu said coldly: "Of course I know, but I believe Master Yu won't tell it."
"Now, I am secretly telling Master Yu because I want to remind him."
Yu Wushuang quickly signaled to Zixuan beside him.
Zixuan took Liu Jinshu to a deserted place.
Zi Xuan said, "Miss Liu, you are now in the Prince Qi's residence. You must not say such things carelessly. If you are not careful, the Prince Qi will kill you."
"Have you told anyone else about His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi's identity?"
Liu Jinshu thought for a moment: "Yes, the old lady of the Su family."
Zixuan frowned. Liu Jinshu was really brave.
She said: "If that's the case, Miss Liu will be in danger."
"If this matter were to reach the ears of the King of Qi and the Duke of Gao, they would certainly have you killed."
"Miss Liu, you should think of a way out."
Zi Xuan said as she slowly approached Liu Jinshu's side and said in a low voice, "Miss Liu, have you heard about the methods used by Prince Qi's Mansion to punish people?"
Liu Jinshu raised his eyes, looked at Zixuan, and shook his head.
"I don't know."
"I have been in Prince Qi's mansion for only a little over a month."
Zi Xuan sighed: "It's not surprising that Concubine Liu doesn't know. It's better if she doesn't know. It would be bad if she knew."
"However, Concubine Liu has already told others the secret she knows, so we should find a way to leave Prince Qi's mansion."
Zi Xuan said this and was about to walk towards her own yard. Just as she took a step, Liu Jinshu called her.
"Miss Yuzhen, what torture methods does Prince Qi's Mansion have?"
Zixuan stopped and looked back at her.
The corners of her lips curled up slightly and she looked at Liu Jinshu.
"If Concubine Liu wants to know what methods the Prince Qi's Mansion uses to torture people, she can go to Jinlin Pavilion and see for herself."
"I know that Concubine Liu is walking on thin ice in the Prince of Qi's mansion. You are just a concubine, and the Prince of Qi doesn't care about you. Everything is decided by the Princess of Qi. I'm afraid that you will be in danger in the future."
"Miss Liu, you should make plans for your unborn baby."
After Zixuan finished speaking, she turned around and left.
Liu Jinshu stood behind, watching Zixuan's receding figure, and became more and more curious about the Jinling Pavilion.
This Jinlin Pavilion is where the Prince of Qi's Palace punishes those who make mistakes.
What kind of torture method is this that makes Miss Yu Zhen afraid to tell me?
Thinking of this, Liu Jinshu picked up his luggage and returned to his side yard.
At dusk, Liu Jinshu went to Jinling Pavilion in the Prince of Qi's Mansion.
Jinlin Pavilion is located to the north of Prince Qi's Mansion. There are few guards here and few people come in and out.
However, the two maids in her yard would change their expressions every time they mentioned Jinling Pavilion.
Out of curiosity, Liu Jinshu stepped into Jinling Pavilion.
From a distance, I heard a strange sound, like something crawling on the ground.
She took a few steps inside out of curiosity. The strange sound became louder and louder, like...
She had heard this sound before in Yongzhou.
It should be the sound of a snake sticking out its tongue.
She was so scared that her scalp went numb, but she still mustered up the courage to walk into the Jinlin Pavilion.
Walking to a dilapidated attic, she opened the door without hesitation. The sound was getting closer and closer.
She tiptoed in and saw what seemed to be a big hole in the dark ground.
She moved closer out of curiosity, and when she saw what was in the pit, she was instantly horrified.
"ah!"
"What is this thing!"
Liu Jinshu was so frightened that he fell to the ground, crawled out the door, and his whole body began to go limp.
She stumbled out of the door and saw her maid Yuanyang running towards her in a hurry.
"Concubine Liu, what are you doing? You can't go in here."
"This is where those who have made mistakes in Prince Qi's Mansion are dealt with."
Liu Jinshu's scalp tingled and he looked at Yuanyang with a pale face.
"Sister Yuanyang, why are those things kept in the pit? Does the King of Qi use these to punish prisoners?"
Yuanyang's face turned pale and she pulled Liu Jinshu out.
She whispered, "Concubine Liu, did you see that?"
Liu Jinshu nodded. The scene just now made her nerves tense and her body began to tremble.
Yuanyang said, "Concubine Liu, you dare to look at such a creepy thing? Aren't you afraid of having nightmares?"
"There's a huge snake pit in Jinlin Pavilion. It's filled with snakes."
"For those who committed serious offenses in the palace, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qi would simply have them pushed into the snake pit to feed the snakes."
"I have seen it once before."
"The nanny who had committed the crime was pushed into the snake pit. In less than half an hour, the snakes had eaten all her flesh and blood, leaving only a pile of dry bones."
After Yuanyang finished speaking, Liu Jinshu suddenly felt her scalp tingling and her body couldn't stop shaking.
She hurried out of Jinling Pavilion in two steps, covered her chest and started vomiting.
"Let's go back quickly!"
"Yuanyang, how long have you been in Prince Qi's mansion?"
"Haven't you made any mistakes?"
Yuanyang sighed and said, "All the maids and nannies in Prince Qi's mansion know that Jinling Pavilion has this thing. Who would dare to make a mistake?"
"Now that Concubine Liu knows, please don't come again."
Liu Jinshu didn't want to come. The scene he just saw made his scalp tingle just thinking about it.
She covered her chest and hurried back to her yard.
After she returned to her yard, she trembled as she entered the wing room and put away her packed luggage.
She remembered the warning Zhang Nanyi had given her before, and for a moment her heart felt like something was tightening around her.
"No, I'm just a concubine now. If I accidentally upset Zhang Nanyi, I'll die in that snake pit."
"I want to leave Prince Qi's Mansion, I want to leave Prince Qi's Mansion!"
"Yuzhen...I want to go find Yuzhen."
Liu Jinshu trembled and dared not think about the Jinling Pavilion anymore.
In the Yunqi Pavilion of Prince Qi's Mansion, Zixuan and Yu Wushuang sat opposite each other.
Yu Wushuang spoke first: "What are your plans for the next step?"
Zi Xuan curled her lips and said, "What else can I do? I'll just have to wait for someone to come."
"Liu Jinshu went to Jinling Pavilion today, so he naturally knows what's inside."
"To protect herself, she will do everything she can to leave Prince Qi's mansion. As long as you and I help her a little, we will definitely make her do it for us."
"Now I will send a message to the princess and see what she thinks."
Yu Wushuang nodded: "Now, let's lead Liu Jinshu to the underground prison first, and then we will help her leave the Prince Qi's Mansion."
Yu Wushuang smiled and said, "Then tell King Qi what she knows about his secret."
"Let the King of Qi push her into a desperate situation. To protect herself, she will definitely do something to satisfy us."
