"Sir! I am a decent woman, you can't do this!"
In the dusty room, Fang Qingyue was lying on the couch with her hands tied, and her silk dress had long disappeared.
The man in front of her had no way of hearing what she was saying. He could only rely on his intuition, lean over and block her chattering mouth.
Fang Qingyue pressed her powerless hands against his chest and pushed him back, tears welling in her deer-like eyes.
"Let me go...don't..."
Her voice was soft and pitiful, trembling and with a hint of allure.
Shen Yuhan's body trembled slightly, and the color in his eyes became even darker! He exerted more force!
Fang Qingyue bit her lips, trying to block the sound that was about to escape, and raised her chin high, revealing her slender neck.
"Sir, I'm engaged. If you bully me, I'll die."
Her voice was choked with sobs and tears welled up in her eyes.
The effects of the medicine surged up, and Shen Yuhan's breathing became hot. He was like a wild beast that had lost its mind, and he was demanding the woman under him like a madman.
She seemed to have lost the strength to resist, and the sobs in her mouth turned into suppressed and shy gasps. It seemed that she had exhausted all her strength and was no longer struggling.
This powerful official who is famous in the capital, the only king of a different surname in the world, has lost his usual calmness and restraint today and is like a madman!
At three o'clock in the night, the night watchman's gong sounded.
Shen Yuhan's brows twitched, and he opened his eyes that were intimidating without even being angry.
His head was dizzy and he was about to get up when he heard a moan coming from under the quilt.
His memory gradually became clearer. He pulled back the quilt with force and stared at the pitiful face of the person next to him. The woman's eyes were closed, her fair face was covered with tear marks, her lips were swollen, and her delicate body, like mutton-fat jade, was covered with red marks.
A chilling look flashed in Shen Yuhan's eyes, and he gripped her neck tightly.
"Who are you? How dare you get into my bed!"
Fang Qingyue was frightened by her creepy tone and stumbled over her words, "Sir...it was clearly...it was you who broke into my house and took my body...how...how come you blame me..."
As she spoke, she began to cry in grievance, and her tears fell like pearls on a jade plate and landed on his veiny hand.
A faint light flashed in Shen Yuhan's eyes. He remembered that he was originally leading people to capture a flower thief in the capital, but he accidentally got hit by the powder he sprinkled.
I thought it was a deadly poison and planned to find a secluded place to force it out from my insides, but it turned out to be a truly intoxicating aphrodisiac.
Looking at the woman in front of him who had been bullied by him, the doubts in his heart did not disappear.
"The Censorate oversees the capital and knows it like the back of their hand. I remember this was the ancestral home of the guilty minister Fang Xifu, and it has been abandoned for over a decade. How did you get here?"
Fang Qingyue choked up softly, "Fang Xifu is my father... After he was brought to justice in the court, the mansion bestowed by the emperor was confiscated. I was left homeless, so I returned to my ancestral home..."
After hearing this explanation, his face darkened and the strength in his hands grew tighter and tighter.
"What a lie! Censor Fang is a traitor and collaborator with the enemy. Your entire family will be executed. If you were his daughter, you would have died on the guillotine long ago!"
Fang Qingyue's thin lips trembled slightly, and a strange color flashed in her eyes.
Her father was loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and he was law-abiding. He would never do anything like collaborating with the enemy and betraying his country. However, as a weak woman, she could not clear his name.
Shen Yuhan works in the Censorate, where he not only supervises all officials, but also has the important task of supervising the prisons in the capital.
Therefore, her purpose in approaching him was to use him to clear up her father's wrongful conviction.
This lord is really suspicious and cautious.
"My lord, I was spared the death penalty because I was engaged to the Marquis of Yongning. He had just returned from a successful mission, so the Emperor showed me special mercy...Every word I said is true. Please understand."
Her words were tearful and she explained the cause and effect clearly.
When Shen Yuhan heard the words "Marquis of Yongning", his face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.
It’s not that he has any grudge against this person, but rather they are of the same clan and origin.
Yongning Hou Chen Qiu Nian is his nephew!
Shen Yuhan had heard that Shen Qiu Nian was engaged, but she didn't know whose daughter she was...
At this moment, he felt a pain in his brow. He actually slept with his nephew's fiancée!
Seeing him let go of her hand, Fang Qingyue sobbed, wrapped herself in the quilt and huddled in the corner.
Her eyes were red and she muttered to herself.
"I originally saved my life, but now my innocence has been destroyed by you, my Lord. When the Ningyuan Marquis's Mansion sends someone to examine me, I will have no way to defend myself. I am afraid I will be drowned in the lake."
She hugged her knees, curled up into a ball, buried her face in the quilt, and cried.
Shen Yuhan's eyes were deep, and he always felt that what happened today was a bit too coincidental.
He got out of bed barefoot and put on the black official robe of the Censorate. His majestic face was expressionless.
"You were destined to be executed anyway. Living a few more days is already a blessing. If you don't want anyone to know what happened today, then end your life. I will have you buried with your father."
He smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes and sneered, "If you are pretending to be pitiful and want to seek something, I advise you to give up this idea."
Fang Qingyue's shoulders trembled slightly, and her heart sank.
In his previous life, Ningyuan Hou returned victorious and brought back a beautiful bride from outside. After learning that her father was convicted, he demoted her to a concubine.
For the next ten years, he suffered humiliation and was finally nailed to a wooden stake and burned to death by Chen Qiu Nian.
Fortunately, God had mercy on her and she was lucky enough to live a new life. In order to avoid repeating the same mistakes, she racked her brains to come up with today's plan.
That is, he can use Shen Yuhan to break off the engagement, and use his identity to find out the truth about his father's injustice.
But no matter how much she planned... she never expected Shen Yuhan to be so suspicious and not care about her life or death at all.
How could this be? How could this be?
In her previous life, she had clearly heard that this Lord, in order to save a brothel girl who had helped him, single-handedly killed all the human traffickers who were secretly buying and selling people.
Why doesn’t it work for her?
Biting her lip lightly, Fang Qingyue raised her hollow eyes and smiled miserably, "Don't worry, sir. I dare not have any plans. After you leave, I will end my own life and will never ruin your reputation."
Shen Yuhan sneered and strode away.
"That would be best."
The footsteps gradually faded away, Fang Qingyue's eyes flickered, and she struggled to make up her mind.
She got out of bed naked, took out nine feet of cloth from the cupboard, and swung it over the rafters.
She hung herself up by standing on a bench, and then kicked it down without hesitation.
The stool hit the wardrobe with a dull thud, so loud that it could be heard even from a distance.
A moment later, the door was kicked open.
The inky voice and shadow came and went, saving her with a sullen face.
Fang Qingyue nestled in his arms, her palms clenched.
She won the bet after all!
