Qian Chunhua was quick to support the prince. She suppressed her anxiety and asked, "Your limbs are weak, can you walk?"
The prince stood up straight and took a few slow steps. "Yes, but I can't walk fast."
"We have to go even if we can't walk fast. If we don't leave now, it might be too late." Qian Chunhua knew that this was their best chance. When the man came back or when it was daybreak, it would be even harder for them to escape.
"Here, bring this." Qian Chunhua handed the prince a tray with a teapot and two cups on it.
When the prince took the tray, his hands went limp and he almost dropped it. Qian Chunhua quickly stepped forward to hold it.
The prince calmed himself, took a deep breath, and held the tray steadily, "Sister Chunhua, I can do it."
Qian Chunhua nodded without saying anything more. She picked up another tray on the table and walked out of the room first.
The room was originally on the first floor. When I walked out of the room, I could see the lobby of Manchun Garden downstairs from the corridor.
At this moment, the lobby of Manchun Garden was brightly lit, bustling with people, and laughter could be heard one after another.
A group of beautiful women in gorgeous clothes were sitting or standing. Some were playing the pipa, some were dancing, and some were singing ditties. Their singing was melodious and their dancing was light and graceful, which made people feel moved.
In the center of the lobby, there is a huge stage where a wonderful song and dance performance is being performed.
The dancers, dressed in colorful feathered costumes, danced to the music. Their movements were smooth and natural, as light and graceful as butterflies.
The audience applauded and cheered, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.
Below the stage, guests sat in groups of three or four around the table, savoring fine wine and delicious food, and appreciating the performances on stage. Some guests flirted and played with the prostitutes, while others were immersed in their own world, quietly savoring the pleasure brought by this prosperous era.
Qian Chunhua just took a glance, then lowered his head, signaling the prince to come out quickly.
The prince was stunned on the spot. He didn't expect that he would be in such an environment. He was really a hermit in the city.
The prince's steps were unsteady, and Qian Chunhua stretched out his hand to support him before he stepped out of the room. After the prince came out, Qian Chunhua quickly closed the door.
He urged in a low voice, "Hurry up."
After saying this, Qian Chunhua looked left and walked towards the stairs.
The prince nodded slightly and followed closely with the tray.
When going down the stairs, Qian Chunhua saw the man who was walking up the stairs with big strides. Her heart seemed to skip a beat and she suddenly couldn't move forward.
The man looked at her strangely, and Qian Chunhua stepped aside and let the man go first.
The man did not suspect anything and continued walking upstairs.
It’s over. This guy came back too quickly. Qian Chunhua didn’t know if they could escape from Manchun Garden successfully.
The light in the stairs was too dim. The man did not recognize Qian Chunhua and the prince. The prince did not recognize the man at all. Among the three, only Qian Chunhua was extremely frightened.
After the man walked away, Qian Chunhua quickened his pace and went downstairs.
Downstairs, Qian Chunhua led the prince and prepared to walk towards the main gate, when the prince suddenly stopped her, "Sister Chunhua, you can't go towards the main gate."
Qian Chunhua looked at the gate from afar and stopped.
I saw a lot of people standing at the gate, and it was obvious at a glance that they were not employees of Manchunyuan.
Qian Chunhua nodded and said in a low voice, "Let's go to the back."
There was a sudden clanging sound from upstairs. Qian Chunhua didn't even look up, but she knew that the man who went upstairs already knew about their escape.
They couldn’t go to the main gate, so they could only go to the kitchen of Manchun Garden, which was also suitable for their outfit.
Qian Chunhua glanced around and followed a servant in front of him. The servant was also holding a teapot in his hand, so he should be heading towards the kitchen.
She quickly followed the servant and came to the kitchen at the back.
