Su Pingchuan only found an opportunity to sneak out of the house at dusk.
He had been confined to the mansion for several days, unable to see anyone except the servant who brought him water and food every day. After Ah Chu had left the city with him that day, he was stopped at the main gate of Prince Xuanyuan's mansion. The palace claimed that he had "caught a cold and was closed to visitors," but in reality, they were preventing my grandfather from coming to help him.
Apart from his colleagues in the camp who saw him every day, he didn't even have a friend who dared to visit him.
In his melancholy mood, he recalled the short time he had been a prisoner in Lingxi, and what that man had said to him. He cheered up and decided to prove his strength.
However, he always forgets his origin and upbringing, forgetting that he has martial arts skills but has never done anything bad like climbing over walls or sneaking through dog holes.
He knocked out the boy who brought him food, took the key, picked up his sword and jumped onto the wall. The next moment, he stepped on three tiles and knocked them down. Then, his father, who seemed to be a gentleman but was actually petty, appeared at the bottom of the wall, looked up at him, and whispered to him to get down.
So he was locked up again.
This time, even the servant who brought water and food could not be seen.
Every meal was passed in and taken out through the dog hole. No matter how loudly he protested, no one responded to him.
Two more days passed like this, and he finally learned to endure.
He wrote a note on the plate he was sending out, saying that he wanted to eat roast chicken, and he received a roast chicken at noon that day.
He ate the whole chicken in one breath and finally found a chicken bone of suitable thickness and length. He found an inkstone to put underneath and polished it gently, and finally he poked open the chain hanging on his body.
This time he didn't dare to take the sword again. He took off his heavy boots and carefully climbed over the wall. He crawled on the wall and observed for half an hour. Then he took advantage of the gap to avoid the guards and successfully slipped out of the house.
He was worried that it wouldn't be long before his father discovered that he was no longer at home, so he cherished this little free time and almost ran all the way to Yanfu Street.
This was the first time he ran on the street wearing only socks.
Those who passed by him were all in a hurry. No one noticed his abnormality. Only he himself knew the rebelliousness and madness at that moment.
Perhaps God was kind to him and his courage was not in vain.
He ran all the way to Wangchen Tower, and after finding out some information, he was almost recognized by an acquaintance, so he hurriedly hid in the nearest room. The person he was looking for was right in front of him.
Su Pingchuan looked at the person in front of him wearing a flowery dress and holding a flowery handkerchief, and a hint of sadness was revealed in his excitement.
After not seeing her for a few days, has she fallen into such a state?
He wanted to ask His Majesty if she had been punished, whether she was living well here, and whether she had suffered any humiliation. However, he felt that such a foolish question could not be asked at all, because it was obvious that she was not living well.
Before he could utter a single word of the words stuck in his throat, the woman in front of the bronze mirror spoke in a dry voice.
"W-Why are you here?"
Xiao Nan's reply was subtle. What she really wanted to ask was: Why are you, a little prince who prides himself on being noble and aloof, in this low-class brothel?
As luck would have it, Wangchen Tower's specialty is that there are more handsome young men than beautiful women. Could it be that Su Pingchuan had suddenly changed his personality and started to develop an interest in other things because of something he had experienced recently?
Xiao Nanhui's heart trembled, and his expression became a little complicated. Seeing that the other party did not answer for a long time, he became more convinced of his judgment.
She crumpled the handkerchief in her palm and spoke tactfully.
"Brother Pingchuan, I also know that love is the most difficult thing to control. Just don't go off the deep end or get stuck in a rut. Although this..." She paused, afraid that her hidden meaning would be too obvious and hurt the relationship, she chose her words carefully, "Although this masculine energy can sometimes attract and appreciate each other, after all, you were not born this way. Don't misjudge yourself for other reasons."
Before she finished her words, she heard two young men outside the door, surrounded by three or five rich young men, flirting and chatting as they went upstairs.
What you say is exactly what you say. This is too appropriate.
She felt a little regretful for a moment, but it was too late. The young man opposite her had already understood her hidden meaning and his face turned red, not knowing whether it was out of embarrassment or anger.
"Of course, of course I came here to see you!"
This time it was her turn to be angry, and she felt a little confused besides being angry.
To see her? How could he have seen her enter this prostitution place and stay there for three days?!
Wangchen Tower is very expensive. If Yao Yi hadn't given her some leniency, she wouldn't have been able to stay there for even one night, let alone three days.
However, what’s even more infuriating is yet to come.
Seeing that she was silent, Su Pingchuan didn't know what was going on in his mind. With an awkward expression on his face, he took out a silver note from his pocket and slapped it on the table.
"I have banknotes, don't worry."
Xiao Nanhui finally couldn't bear it anymore. He stood up from the embroidered cushion on the window and strode to Su Pingchuan. He grabbed the back of his collar and dragged him out the door, muttering to himself as he went.
"What a waste of that wonderful place called Taozhi Mountain, which is filled with fairy spirit. Instead of producing a single swordsman, they produced a lavish whore..."
Poor young general, who had just escaped from the mansion after going through countless hardships, was grabbed by the back of the neck by a female bandit and was about to be thrown out.
