"Someone come!"
“Someone come!
In a brothel in Ding'an City.
At this time, Ding'an City had long lost its former bustle and was in a state of desolation everywhere.
The only brothel left in the city still had lights on in the middle of the night.
A middle-aged man in brocade clothes had a red face. Seeing that no girl came for a long time, he slapped the table impatiently.
"Did you hear that?"
"Keep on playing, keep on dancing!"
Finally, after several strong requests, Mrs. Liu, the madam of Fengya Pavilion, hurried over.
Faced with the approaching imperial soldiers, she wanted to run away with the money, but there was no way, as she was stopped on the road.
Madam Liu didn't want to pay any attention to him, but there was nothing she could do because she really couldn't afford to offend the man in brocade clothes in front of her.
Because this person is none other than Prince Yu, Xiao Xing!
Even though Prince Yu is now at the end of his rope, he is not someone she, a mere brothel madam, can afford to offend.
There was no other way, she could only serve well.
But there are no girls in Fengya Pavilion now.
"Your Highness, I'm so sorry, we don't have enough girls. How about... I prepare some good wine and delicious food for you, Your Highness? What do you think..."
Madam Liu was very cautious. She knew clearly that Prince Yu in front of her was in a bad temper and she could not show any disrespect to him.
But for her, as long as she could hold on for two or three days and wait for the imperial army to attack Ding'an, she would be free.
As soon as Madam Liu finished speaking, Prince Yu couldn't help but get furious and pounded the table in front of him, causing the tea to splash everywhere.
"If there are no girls, won't you go find one? You don't have any girls in Fengya Pavilion, so why are you running a brothel? Huh?"
"this……"
Mrs. Liu looked troubled and conflicted.
She wanted to find someone to make do with, but where could she find a serious and willing girl these days?
As for the people in the city, those who were able to move were guarding the city walls. After all, they estimated that the imperial army would arrive at the city early tomorrow morning to suppress the rebellion.
Bang bang——
But at this time, Prince Yu could no longer bear it and could not help but chop the sword at his waist against the table in front of him.
"What are you talking about? In such a big place like Fengya Pavilion, you can't find a single one? Do you believe that I will chop you down right now?"
"Your Highness, I don't...dare not!" Madam Liu shuddered with fear and quickly knelt on the ground.
Seeing that the prince's face was getting uglier and uglier, she hesitated for a moment, as if she had made some kind of decision.
"Your Highness... If your Highness doesn't mind, my humble appearance..."
Having said that, Madam Liu's voice softened and a hint of shyness appeared on her face.
Prince Yu was startled, and looked over with sharp eyes, sizing him up and down for a long time.
After such a careful look, it was okay. Soon, a smile appeared on Prince Yu's face.
“Very good!”
After saying that, he threw the sword aside and pulled Madam Liu in front of him into his arms.
…
On the city wall of Ding'an, the people and soldiers who were forced to defend the city were in a panic, but in Fengya Pavilion, there was obviously singing and dancing.
…
With the arrival of dawn, the sunlight shone on the walls of Ding'an City.
The sounds of fighting between the two armies rang out, and the city was also plunged into anxiety.
"What's going on? Have you found the prince?"
In Prince Yu’s Mansion, all the staff were in a hurry.
At this time, the entire Ding'an was in a desperate situation, and Prince Yu's subordinates were also divided.
But now, His Royal Highness Prince Yu Rehai is missing and we haven’t been able to find him all night.
"Oh, no, I've searched the entire city, but there's still no sign of the prince."
Upon hearing this, the official in Prince Yu's residence looked very unhappy. "Now that the prince is gone, how can we fight this war?"
"We found the prince!"
Just at this moment, a noise was heard outside the mansion, which made everyone feel a little more at ease.
But soon, the soldier who came to report the news changed the subject again.
"only……"
"The prince... he has already..." The soldier was afraid to say more and knelt down quickly.
The official's expression changed, as he obviously understood the meaning of the soldier's words.
Could it be that... the prince knew that he was on the verge of death and had already chosen to commit suicide in advance?
"Where is the prince's... now?"
Then the chief official asked hurriedly again.
"This..." When the soldiers heard this question, their faces became even more strange.
After thinking for a moment, he said cautiously, "The prince's body is in... Fengya Pavilion. When it was brought back, his body was still... naked."
Everyone: “…”
The general's extraordinary response caused the palace to fall into a strange silence.
Everyone stared at each other for a long time, and finally looked at the leading official in tacit understanding.
As if they saw the corners of the chief official's mouth twitching, they lowered their heads in tacit understanding.
Well...
It cannot be said. It cannot be said.
Although everyone was caught off guard, they now seemed to no longer care.
Since the prince is in trouble, do his subordinates no longer need to resist?
Surrender to the imperial army, or secretly run away with the money?
For a time, both officials and servants began to have different thoughts.
…
That is, when Shi Qingxue ordered the army to attack the city, he suddenly saw the gate of Ding'an City in front of him was opened.
This scene also made her slightly stunned.
Then, a group of people walked out of the city.
This group of people were obviously dressed as officials from Prince Yu's Mansion. When they arrived in front of the army, they began to kowtow.
"The criminals greet the imperial ambassador! They greet the Marshal and all the generals!"
Shi Qingxue raised his eyebrows, obviously realizing the situation.
It seems that these people in Prince Yu's Mansion are planning to surrender the city.
Fortunately, the chief official of Prince Yu's Mansion had good vision. He spotted Shi Qingxue among the crowd of soldiers and immediately realized that Shi Qingxue had the greatest power.
He faced Shi Qingxue and said, "General, Prince Yu died in the city last night. Forced by Prince Yu, we had no choice but to fight against the court. Now we don't ask for pardon, but we ask for the forgiveness of this sinner's family..."
The chief official was very humble. He was also very clear that it was a great blessing from the emperor that the current situation did not involve his family members.
Upon hearing this, Shi Qingxue's eyes clearly showed what was happening.
It turned out that the gorgeously dressed corpse these people were carrying was Prince Yu.
Shi Qingxue was truly puzzled and couldn't help but ask, "How did Prince Yu explode and die?"
"Well..." The official bowed somewhat embarrassedly, then whispered, "Prince Yu was in the city's brothels... and indulged himself excessively."
Shi Qingxue: “…”
Oh! Man!
Her face suddenly turned cold and she waved her hand impatiently.
"Come here, take him away and interrogate him!"
