Zuan was somewhat annoyed: "I saved you and your leader, and now those people in your sect want me to agree to other conditions? Isn't that a bit too unfair?"
Qiu Honglei said apologetically, "I didn't want this either, but I dare not publicize the fact that you saved the sect leader. Once others find out, secrets will eventually come out, and I'm worried that you will be in danger in the palace."
Zuan then realized he had misunderstood her: "You've thought things through very well."
As the saying goes, too many people have too many opinions, and it is said that there are many factions within the Demonic Sect. Who knows if they will betray him? Therefore, it is wise to hide him away.
Qiu Honglei continued, "I don't know if Master has told you that she rose to power by purging many factions. Now that she is seriously injured and missing, many people in the sect are starting to stir. So even if she gives the order, these people may not be willing to listen."
Zuan couldn't help but complain, "These people in your sect are truly loyal and righteous."
Seemingly sensing the sarcasm in his tone, Qiu Honglei also sighed: "Loyalty and righteousness are not our doctrines. In the end, we all believe in the law of the jungle, where might makes right. It's not unreasonable for outsiders to think we are a demonic sect."
Zuan said, "I don't know what excuse I need to get your people to cooperate with me."
Qiu Honglei explained, "During this assassination attempt in the palace, many of our brothers were captured, including people from various factions. If you can rescue them, they will definitely agree to help."
Zu An frowned. Why don't those people just fly to the heavens?
The assassins who attempted to kill the Empress and the Crown Prince are wanted criminals, guilty of a crime punishable by the extermination of nine generations of their family. With so many people watching them, how could they possibly be saved?
Qiu Honglei continued, "I know this is a difficult matter, so if you really can't save them, it would be good to give them a quick death so they don't suffer any more."
Although no one witnessed it firsthand, everyone could easily imagine the severe torture those people endured in the prison.
“Okay, I can give that a try.” Zu’an agreed. Yun Jianyue had made a similar request before, so it was a good opportunity to do her two favors.
"Alright, I'll go discuss this with the people in the sect now. You rest here for a while." Qiu Honglei hurriedly left.
The Demonic Cult's branch in the capital city was located in the Jiaofangsi (Imperial Music Bureau), where many of the cult's middle and high-ranking members were clearly located.
Zuan nodded. It was naturally inconvenient for him to go over in this situation. He sat by the window, looking down at the crowd, when he was surprised to find that something unexpected had happened.
Chu Youzhao's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were glazed; she was clearly drunk.
This silly girl, doesn't she know her own alcohol tolerance? Coming to a brothel to drink like this?
Qin Guangyuan frowned, standing to the side: "You Zhao is young, and her alcohol tolerance is indeed not good."
Cheng Gang laughed and immediately said solicitously, "Miss Shuangyue, Young Master Chu is drunk. Please help him into the house to rest, and be sure to take good care of him."
Shuangyue blushed slightly and said shyly, "It is my blessing to be able to serve someone like Young Master Chu."
Her eyes kept glancing at Chu Youzhao beside her, perfectly capturing the charming and coquettish nature of a woman.
"Don't...don't touch me." Chu Youzhao subconsciously tried to push her away, but she was too drunk and weak to push her away.
"Young master, let me help you to sleep for a while," Shuangyue said softly.
"Hmm...hmm..." Chu Youzhao responded vaguely.
Cheng Gang, who was standing to the side, saw the two of them embracing each other and they were truly a perfect match. He even thought that Chu Gongzi, with his red teeth and white teeth, was more alluring than Shuangyue. He felt a surge of lust rising in his lower abdomen and thought that he should sneak into the room later and have sex with both men and women.
Anyway, Shuangyue is her old flame, so she probably won't refuse. It's just that this Young Master Chu's identity is a bit special, and if things are exposed, it will be quite troublesome.
Damn it, I'm actually falling for a man!
It's all because this guy is too handsome!
Qin Yongde, who was groping the maid, turned around and said with a smile, "Shuangyue, my little brother here is a virgin, so you'd better be gentle with him later."
"No...don't..." Chu Youzhao was in a daze and subconsciously refused, but no one would take her weak voice seriously.
Shuangyue replied with a charming smile, "I've always been very gentle. Surely I can give Young Master Chu a red envelope afterward?"
Having been exposed to the ways of the Jiaofangsi (a government-run entertainment institution), these words sound perfectly natural to him.
The others were indeed amused and burst into laughter, while Shuangyue helped Chu Youzhao into the house.
Cheng Gang's eyes darted around, and he picked up the maid beside him and walked toward the next room: "Please make yourselves at home, gentlemen. I'm going to have some fun first, hahaha."
"Vulgar~" Qin Guangyuan and Qin Yongde both thought to themselves, but looking at the girl beside them, she seemed exceptionally gentle and charming.
Qin Yongde couldn't resist any longer and put his arm around the waist of the two girls next to him and walked to the other side: "Big brother, I'm going back to my room too."
Qin Guangyuan was speechless. This guy had no self-control at all. With their status, what kind of beautiful wives and maids hadn't they seen? Why was he so eager for sex?
"Young Master Qin is truly a gentleman who remains unmoved even with a woman in his lap..." The girl beside him smiled and drew on his chest with her finger.
Qin Guangyuan stiffened. Hmm, these women from the brothel do have a unique charm. Indulging themselves occasionally doesn't seem like a big deal.
He was then led by the woman beside him to a small, private room, where the sound of a bed creaking could soon be heard.
