Upon hearing this, Atuo Jianghua had an idea. She deliberately put on a stern face and said, "Alright, you can go ahead and do your work. I'll wander around by myself for a bit and call you if I need anything later."
Upon hearing this, the girl tossed her handkerchief aside, turned around, and left.
A-Tuo Jiang Hua thought that the top courtesan named Yan Liu must be very good at charming men, and since she was entertaining men in the room right now, it would be a good opportunity for her to observe and learn from her.
Nong Nong said that the Emperor likes gentle and weak girls, which is why he dotes on Wen Ruyi. But the girls in this building seem to be liked by all kinds of men. They must have some skills in charming men. If she could learn some of them, could she also make the Emperor like her?
Thinking of this, she became quite excited. She wandered around upstairs and downstairs, watched some of the excitement, and finally took out some silver to bribe the servant in the building and asked for directions to Yanliu's room.
Following the servant's directions, she arrived at a room at the end of the third floor.
She listened intently to the door for a while, and when she heard no sound, she mustered her courage and pushed the door open a little. She peeked inside and saw that it was quiet and there was no one there. After thinking for a moment, she pushed the door open and went in.
If you're going to learn, you should definitely observe nearby to learn from others.
Yanliu isn't here now, which makes it convenient for her to go in and hide.
A little while later, Yanliu returned with guests, and she was able to secretly peek at them without anyone noticing.
Atuo Jianghua thought her idea was brilliant.
As soon as she stepped into the room, she was choked by the strong incense and coughed repeatedly.
She walked around the house, looking for a hiding place.
But the house was only so big, and the best place to hide was the bed.
She couldn't hide on the bed, so she had to hide under it.
Thinking about it, she walked towards the bed with its curtains hanging low.
When she reached the bedside, she pulled up the gauze curtain, intending to crawl under the bed. However, as soon as her hand touched the curtain, a hand suddenly reached out from inside, grabbed her wrist, and lifted her onto the bed.
Before she could react, a heavy body suddenly pressed down on her.
She was terrified and tried to kick the man away, but he possessed terrifying strength and quickly restrained her hands.
In the chaos, she heard a "hiss" sound, the sound of cloth tearing.
She finally realized the danger, but it was too late; her beautiful eyes were filled with fear.
...
The armored guards found Atuo Jianghua in a dark alley.
At that time, her clothes were disheveled, and she was huddled in the corner in a very disheveled state, having been frightened by something.
Without saying a word, the armored guards immediately sent the man back to the Prince's residence.
...
When Wang Houde received the report from the Ironclad Guards, he was greatly surprised and immediately went to inform Gu Linchao.
Gu Linchao glanced at the girl who had suddenly snuggled into his arms in the middle of the night and was now sleeping soundly. He paused for a moment, but did not wake her. He gently moved her away before getting up, opening the door, and leaving.
"What is it?"
Because Wang Houde had already bothered him the previous time, he felt somewhat guilty when facing him this time, and with his head down, he quickly reported the matter.
Upon hearing this, Gu Linchao frowned.
Wang Houde glanced at his expression and said, "He's currently at Chenxiang Courtyard, constantly clamoring to see the Princess Consort. Your Highness, what do you think..."
Gu Linchao looked up at the sky and instructed, "Have Lüqiao take good care of her. I will speak to the Princess Consort myself after she wakes up."
Wang Houde was taken aback. Did his master mean he was going to ignore Consort Atuo? Because the princess was still asleep and he didn't want to wake her?
"Yes," he replied, and quickly went downstairs.
