Chapter 029 The young lady climbed over the wall?

These noble ladies from the capital were either dancing or playing the piano. There were constant applause and cheers in the garden. When the banquet reached its climax, the atmosphere in the garden also became heated.

There are flowers, wine, young men and beautiful women. It feels like a large blind date party.

As expected, He'an was finally asked to leave by the people around the second prince. Ruan Qinghuan winked at Jiang Qi, and Jiang Qi followed him out of the peach forest without saying a word.

The innermost courtyard of Taoyuan is the second prince's villa, and very few people can enter here on weekdays.

It's noisy outside at the moment, but it's unusually quiet here.

The servant took He'an to a courtyard and opened the door: "The prince is waiting for you inside, please come in."

He'an hesitated for a moment, but still walked in. As soon as he entered the room, the door closed and the sound of it being locked could be heard from outside.

He'an's face turned cold and he looked around the room.

The room was a little dim. Walking through the main hall, I saw a bed behind the curtain on the east side. The quilt on it was bulging, and it was obvious that someone was sleeping there.

There was an exquisite incense burner on the low table beside the bed, and the fragrant smoke wafted out, filling the room.

He An turned around alertly, picked up the teapot on the table and put out the incense burner. Despite this, his head was still a little dizzy, and the inexplicable burning sensation made him feel upset.

At this moment, the woman on the bed slowly sat up, and it turned out to be Liu Yueru.

He An's eyes were gloomy: "Miss Liu, this behavior really brings shame to the Liu family."

"I have deep feelings for you, sir. Why can't I pursue my own happiness? Sir, I am sincere to you, even if I have to be your mistress, I am willing to do it."

As she said this, she was about to throw herself into He'an's arms, but He'an dodged to the side, and Liu Yueru's throw missed.

"Did the prince ask you to do this?"

"I am willing to do this, sir. Please accept me. I am willing to serve you with all my heart and soul."

He'an gradually felt that something was wrong. He had clearly extinguished the incense burner, but the smoke in the room was getting thicker and thicker. He hurriedly took out the purse that Ruan Qinghuan had given him from his sleeve and covered his mouth with it.

He searched for the source of the smoke in the room. If he continued like this, even if he extinguished the aphrodisiac incense, the smoke in the room might make him lose his mind.

With the refreshing incense, his mind became clearer. He An wanted to open the window, but found that all the windows in the room were sealed.

Liu Yueru began to undress. Like He'an, she inhaled the aphrodisiac fragrance. Not to mention that she had been coveting He'an, even if she were to take another man, she would probably do the same.

He'an was conflicted. Considering his old friendship with Liu Zhongju, he didn't want Liu Yueru to become the Second Prince's puppet. However, her biased behavior time and time again showed that she was not a self-respecting and self-loving person.

Seeing that she was stripped down to just a small piece of clothing to cover her modesty, He An looked away with disgust.

There was a sound from the roof and the tiles were lifted up. The man in Jiang Qi's hand was the one who had just led He An here. Jiang Qi was worried that he would leak the news, so he tied him up and threw him into the house.

The man's mouth was pouted and he could only make painful "hmm" sounds.

"Sir, let's go."

He'an nodded, but his expression hesitated for a moment. Was he really going to ignore Liu Yueru?

Liu Yueru rushed forward and was pushed down on the chair by He'an. Liu Yueru was feeling uncomfortable from the effects of the drugs, and the grievance of being pushed away by He'an again and again turned into anger.

He yelled at He An, "Don't you dislike that bitch Ruan Qinghuan? Why can't I do that? How can I not compare to her?"

Liu Yueru panted heavily, "I am the family of a loyal minister. She is just a woman from the market who is not presentable. She is not worthy of you at all. That's why I want to help you drive her out of the prime minister's residence."

"It was me. I said she was shameless and had a mistress outside. So what? You still didn't pursue the matter, did you? That shows you like me, He'an. You just had to send me out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, right?"

"Otherwise you wouldn't have taken me back to the Prime Minister's Residence on your wedding night. You could have just pretended that you didn't receive the letter, or sent someone else to put me up in the guest inn..."

He An shook his head in disappointment and let out a long sigh: "Let's go."

He'an disappeared. Liu Yueru rubbed her misty eyes. When she saw the servant tied up like a dumpling on the ground, she suddenly ran forward with distress: "He'an, what happened to you? Who tied you up like this?"

As she spoke, Liu Yueru struggled to untie the ropes on the servant. The moment the servant broke free from the restraints, he rushed towards Liu Yueru with red eyes and ripped off her clothes.

**

The Second Prince was drinking tea and chatting with the Crown Prince on the second floor when a servant came in and whispered something in the Second Prince's ear. Upon hearing this, a hint of complacency appeared in the Second Prince's sinister eyes.

He waved his hand to the servants and they left.

Ruan Qinghuan wanted to go into the inner courtyard to see what was going on, but was stopped by the servants at the door. It seemed that he could not get there by taking the official route.

She walked along the wall to a peach tree. The tree was closer to the wall and had forks. If she stepped on it, she might be able to jump over.

Just as Ruan Qinghuan had climbed up to the top of the wall with great effort and was complaining breathlessly about why the wall was built so high, he lowered his eyes and saw He An and Jiang Qi standing by the wall in the courtyard.

Seeing He An looking at her wantonly, Ruan Qinghuan first tugged at her skirt, then tidied her hair, and finally cleared her throat: "Well, I just... want to sit here and enjoy the scenery."

As soon as Ruan Qinghuan opened his mouth, Jiang Qi came back to his senses. What did he see?

The young lady climbed over the wall?

Ruan Qinghuan felt guilty and thought that his behavior was abrupt and he was caught by He An.

Not to mention the mistress of the prime minister's mansion, the girls of that era, especially the noble ladies in the capital, were all about proper behavior and being gentle and virtuous. They were afraid of spraining their waists even if they tiptoed, let alone climbing walls and trees.

After sending Jiang Qi away, He An couldn't help laughing out loud: "Madam, what do you think of the scenery up there?"

"As for the scenery, the scenery is quite nice...it's so spacious..." Ruan Qinghuan pretended to look around, but this look almost scared her to death, and she immediately lay on the wall.

She saw a group of people coming towards the inner courtyard on the path outside. She was afraid that she couldn't go out now.

She was afraid that if these people walked to the front, they would discover her, so in desperation, she had to climb down the wall.

He An: “…”

Unexpectedly, he rolled down directly. He An was scared and angry: "Aren't you afraid..."

Before he could finish his words, Ruan Qinghuan covered his mouth and they both fell into the flowers beside them.

Seeing that everyone was heading towards the yard, He An's expression turned cold.

Ruan Qinghuan was only concerned with the situation and didn't even notice that she was hugging his neck. However, she didn't forget to take credit: "Sir, you owe me a big favor today. You must repay me in the future."

Ruan Qinghuan was just feeling happy thinking that the Second Prince and his men had come up empty-handed when she heard He An's voice from above her head: "Isn't it your responsibility to protect your husband's innocence?"

Ruan Qinghuan raised her head, her forehead brushed past his lips, and then it was He An's big face. He moved too fast, and Ruan Qinghuan had no time to react, so he shamelessly kissed her on the lips.

Ruan Qinghuan helped the man up while she was still confused: "Madam, let's go and see what's going on."
