"Don't move! If you don't recover soon, your father will question you during the court session. I'll see how you handle it! The Imperial Concubine will also nag you."
Helian Sheng curled his lips: "If Zhaoyang was here, how could mother have time to deal with me, and it would be impossible for her to find a chance to force Yijun. When will Zhaoyang return to Beijing?"
"You can't protect your own woman, so you'd better stay away from Zhaoyang. She doesn't want to be accused of a crime for you." The prince said venomously.
Helian Sheng sighed: "Brother, you haven't told me what you got or didn't get just now."
The prince lowered his eyelashes, and his thick eyelashes covered the darkness in his eyes.
"Alia is wonderful. She is beautiful and straightforward."
"When we first met, she dared to take us brothers to the theater to secretly wear costumes. As a result, we were forced to perform on stage."
Helian Sheng had a complicated expression: "If I hadn't performed for my father and the visiting envoys from various countries, I might be happier."
The prince laughed dumbly, "At that time, I was young and bound by rules. I really loved her eccentricity and nonsense."
"Don't you love me now?" Helian Sheng's eyes were very bright. "I heard from Zhaoyang that Aria and that concubine dared to speak coldly to my brother. Zhaoyang also said that you like to be abused. You may be whipped with a small whip at night."
The prince smiled slightly: "Zhaoyang said that?"
Helian Sheng shuddered and mumbled, "I just... gave her 1,000 taels of silver, and she said it. She also said that my fourth brother was unrefined and took off his clothes and threw them around."
"You love to hear these gossips." The prince's subordinate increased his strength, "As for the matter of Tianxing City, I will recommend you to my father and share some of your energy with the people of the court, so that you won't cry your eyes out."
After the prince said this, he withdrew his hand and stuffed the ointment into Helian Sheng's palm.
Helian Sheng bowed his head and knelt on one leg: "I will obey your instructions."
"Tianxing City is close to Jinling. If you finish dealing with Tianxing City's affairs, you may be able to spend a few days with Zhaoyang. Remember to urge her to study. It's not decent to keep an eye on messy things all day long!"
Helian Sheng whispered tentatively, "Brother, do you really like being whipped?"
"How about I take you to my house to look for her? Let Cui Huai capture the women in my house, and then you can interrogate them?" The prince frowned, with a chill beneath his gentle appearance.
Helian Sheng hurriedly shook his head and stood up, "The wine is warming in the room, please come in, my brother!"
Shangyang Tower, West Tower.
"Miss Dugu, have you seen enough?"
Han Xingzhi was leaning lazily on the couch, holding a glass of wine, while Xu Ling beside him was massaging his legs, looking very happy.
Dugu Yijun was still wearing a red suit, with a dagger on her waist. She stood by the window with an expressionless face.
Hearing this, she turned around and looked at Han Xingzhi and Xu Ling beside him.
"I've seen enough."
"When will Miss Dugu leave Beijing?"
Han Xingzhi didn't say anything polite. He poured the wine down his throat. It tasted spicy and mellow, and he squinted his eyes in satisfaction.
"Qiao Zhe has already told me your intention. We are friends. I am happy for you that you have escaped the prison in the backyard of the prince's mansion. You must take this silver note of ten thousand taels."
"No need." Dugu Yijun pulled a stool and sat down. "The world is so big, I won't starve myself."
"That's not the reason." Han Xingzhi stared at Dugu Yijun with his dark eyes, "I'm advising you to prepare for the worst. You may not be able to leave Beijing. Do you think you can get away easily if you mess with the prince? If you really encounter an assassination, this ten thousand taels may be able to save your life."
"In other words, I will be safe only if I don't leave Beijing?" Dugu Yijun took a deep breath, and his heroic face became even colder and harder. "If I had known this would happen, I would never have touched Helian Sheng!"
"I'm not leaving!"
Han Xingzhi was so shocked that he dropped the wine in his glass, "You're not leaving?"
Xu Ling lowered her eyes, knelt beside him, and tidied his wet clothes.
Han Xingzhi didn't know how to react for a moment. He chuckled for a while and sat back lazily, "The capital city is getting lively now."
After Dugu Yijun left, Han Xingzhi pulled Xu Ling into his arms.
"Ling'er, go to the North Tower and pass on a message to the Crown Prince and the Second Prince, saying that Miss Dugu will not leave the capital."
Xu Ling didn't ask any more questions, straightened his clothes around his waist, and walked out.
As soon as she went out, the dagger fell on her fair neck.
"Han Xingzhi asked you to go and tip off?"
Xu Ling narrowed her eyes and said, "Miss Dugu, you are worrying too much."
"I know what kind of person your master is! If he wants to see me having fun, he has to live a long life!" Dugu Yijun said sternly, "I put drugs in the wine just now. If he does it with a woman for a whole day and night, he will explode and die. Miss Xu Ling, go back to the room."
Xu Ling's dark brown eyes trembled, and she pointed at Dugu Yijun angrily: "You vicious woman!"
"Don't be so rude to your master. He is not a good person." Dugu Yijun sneered, "Miss Xu Ling, if you don't go in, you will have to find a new master."
Xu Ling gritted her teeth and retreated back to the room. She looked at Han Xingzhi, who was lying on the couch with his eyes closed and his body red. She trotted over to him and grabbed her clothes.
"Master? You..."
“Don’t take it off!”
Xu Ling was surprised and couldn't believe what Han Xingzhi said at this time. She had been quite liked by him these days and had served him for a few days, but now, he was...
"Master, Ling'er will serve you." Xu Ling didn't care about anything else and took off her clothes in a hurry.
Han Xingzhi still closed his eyes: "No need!"
"Master, you..."
Is it pity? Xu Ling's eyes were filled with anticipation.
"Go get the doctor! Quick!"
“…”
Xu Ling made up his mind and moved closer to Han Xingzhi, "Master, you don't know, this medicine is very strong. It requires men and women to have sex for a day and a night, otherwise the body will explode and die."
Han Xingzhi groaned, "I don't believe it. If I don't explode and die, I'll die of exhaustion after doing this for a whole day and night. Go get a doctor, quickly!"
Xu Ling bit her lip, thinking that what he said made sense, "Ling'er will go right away."
"If you delay any longer, you'll be waiting for me to collect your body!" Han Xingzhi clutched his robe, his face flushed like a shrimp, and he tried to curl up his body.
Not really beautiful.
Xu Ling hurriedly gathered her robe and ran out. Dugu Yijun, holding a dagger, did not stop her, but pushed the door and entered the room.
"The people have been sent away, so go ahead and talk." Han Xingzhi looked calm, still lazily leaning on the couch, "I swallowed some aphrodisiac powder to cooperate with you."
"Young Master has sent me news that Xu Ling is the princess of the Western Regions." Dugu Yijun sat on the stool in a casual manner, "I want you to know the limits."
Han Xingzhi was slightly stunned: "Princess of the Western Region?"
"Yeah." Dugu Yijun poured herself a cup of tea, "Congratulations, you are also about to lose your loved one."
"Can you, can you save her?" Han Xingzhi could no longer stay out of the matter. He threw his lazy and arrogant attitude to the ground and hurriedly got off the bed, "Ask the young master if you can--"
"Han Xingzhi, she is a spy."
