Just one pregnancy and four babies, but the prince actually pledged his love to her
Chapter 32: The Woman in the Huang Mansion
The yard was overgrown with weeds and looked dilapidated. There was a group of women sitting or lying in front of me. A rough count showed that there were about twenty of them.
But there was something wrong with these women. Some had dull eyes, some laughed loudly, and some were holding swaddling clothes, rocking gently and humming incomprehensible songs.
The key point is that the exposed skin of these women is covered with scars. Without looking, Li Mengyue can imagine that the areas covered by clothes have just as many scars.
System: [Wu... Host, these women are so pitiful, please save them. ]
Hearing the little girl's sobbing, Li Mengyue rubbed her temple with her left hand helplessly: [Don't cry, when did I say I wouldn't save you? ]
[Yeah! I knew that the host would not just leave it alone and would definitely rescue these poor women from suffering.]
[Okay, stop flattering me, I'll think about how to get them out safely.]
Although most of the women in Jingyuan are in a bad mental state, there are also some normal ones.
A woman sitting under the eaves was surprised to see that Li Mengyue was fine and not hurt at all.
You should know that all the women sent to the quiet hospital were injured when they came, without exception. Oh, no, there is one now.
Li Mengyue noticed this gaze, turned her head and looked over, just in time to meet the gaze of the woman under the eaves.
Seeing that the woman's eyes were clear and not as crazy as the others, Li Mengyue walked over.
The woman under the eaves did not stand up, but moved her butt to the side. Li Mengyue did not hesitate and sat down directly.
"What's wrong with the women here?" Li Mengyue asked.
“All of them were snatched back by Huang Shiren through despicable means. In his eyes, we women are his playthings. He will naturally abandon us when he gets tired of us. We were able to save our lives, but I don’t know how many women like us were wrapped in straw mats and carried out.” The woman under the eaves said calmly.
"Huang Shiren doesn't take human life seriously, so is there no one who cares?" Li Mengyue asked puzzledly.
Hearing this, the woman sneered and said disdainfully: "How can I care? If someone dies, Huang Shiren only needs to hand over the money to the government, and he doesn't have to worry about the government causing trouble at all."
Li Mengyue understood that there was collusion between officials and businessmen, but she didn't expect that so many lives could be treated so lightly. She looked at these poor women in the yard and felt a surge of anger in her heart.
If Huang Shiren was in front of her, she didn't know what he would do.
Having made up her mind to save these women, Li Mengyue stood up and left without any hesitation.
These women were not in immediate danger of death, and she had more important things to do before saving them.
The light in the woman's eyes under the eaves gradually "extinguished" as Li Mengyue walked away.
She originally thought that there was a woman who could walk here unharmed and rescue them, but she didn't expect that it was just her wishful thinking.
Women like them who have been abused are not worthy of living in the sun and can only survive in a corner where no one knows about them.
Li Mengyue naturally had no idea what the woman was thinking. She walked out the door and saw the servant who brought her here still waiting not far away.
When the servant saw Li Mengyue, he hurried forward and before Li Mengyue could say anything, he started chattering nonstop.
"You've seen what happened to those women, right? You're scared and want to leave this place as soon as possible. Don't worry, you should be glad that you met me. I'll find a way to get you out before dark."
Li Mengyue saw the servant talking nonstop and ignored him, but her pace became much faster than before.
"Hey, girl, I haven't finished speaking yet. Why are you walking so fast? Wait for me." The servant was afraid that he could not catch up with Li Mengyue, so he did not bother to talk for the time being and quickened his pace.
After walking for a while, the servant felt that Li Mengyue's physical strength was really good. He, a grown man, was tired and panting, but the other party was still breathing steadily and didn't feel tired at all.
The two walked to a garden, and Li Mengyue suddenly stopped. The servant followed her quickly and almost bumped into Li Mengyue's back.
The servant was frightened and wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, then looked in the direction Li Mengyue was looking.
"Young lady, you are also attracted by the flowers blooming here. To be honest, there is no maid in the mansion who doesn't like them. Look, the flowers planted in the garden are peonies."
Li Mengyue naturally knew what kind of flower this was. It was just that this season was not the time for peonies to bloom. Yet, every flower here was exceptionally brightly colored, with full and gorgeous petals.
Especially the colors of the flowers, from elegant white to warm red, all kinds of colors intertwined together, it should have been a beautiful picture, but for some reason, it gave her a very strange feeling.
[Host, your feeling is correct, because there are countless bones buried under the garden.]
After hearing what the system said, Li Mengyue looked at the huge garden full of peonies. If what the system said was correct, how many bodies were buried here?
Thinking of the miserable woman in the quiet courtyard and what the woman under the eaves said, I wonder how many innocent women Huang Shiren had harmed.
Suppressing the anger in her heart, Li Mengyue turned around and asked the servant: "Where is the main courtyard?"
The servant wanted to persuade the girl to leave, but he didn't expect the other party to be so aggressive and wanted to fall into the trap.
"Girl, follow me and hide in the woodshed first. When it gets dark and we can't find you, the people in the mansion will definitely look for you. Then you can take advantage of the chaos and run away."
Li Mengyue did not feel any ill will from the servant. Instead, he was thinking about her wholeheartedly. She was not an ungrateful person. She said to the servant in a gentle tone, "Young man, you don't need to persuade me. I have my own plans."
Seeing Li Mengyue's stubborn look, the servant knew that he would not be able to convince him in the short term, so he had to tell him the direction of the main courtyard.
"Girl, I am not qualified to enter the main courtyard. I can only tell you how to get there."
"Okay, thanks bro."
After finding out the direction of the main courtyard, Li Mengyue didn't want to waste a moment and immediately walked towards the main courtyard.
It took Li Mengyue a quarter of an hour to reach the main courtyard, and along the way she went up to the corridor.
There are carved beams and painted buildings everywhere, exotic flowers and plants in the garden, marble on the ground, and precious trees planted on both sides of the road.
There is also a winding stream passing under the corridor, pouring into a small pond surrounded by strange rocks from the depths of the flowers and trees, which gave Li Mengyue a further understanding of the financial resources of Landlord Huang.
I wonder how much food Mr. Huang withheld from the tenant farmers and how many unscrupulous things he did to accumulate so much wealth and build such a luxurious mansion.
When she arrived at the main courtyard and saw the yard where Landlord Huang lived, she felt that the Huang family was extremely wealthy.
Avoiding the maids and servants coming and going, Li Mengyue quickly found the place where Landlord Huang met guests.
