The Regent's Koi Princess

Jiangnan Villa

midnight

Zhao Zhoucheng didn't come here tonight because he had something to do.

Yue Niang finally seized this opportunity to escape.

Yue Niang, who was tied to the bed, looked at the two maids guarding the door, and quickly thought of a plan to escape.

After thinking for a while, she decided to use a self-torture tactic.

She held the quilt tightly with both hands, frowned and looked fierce. Without hesitation, she bit her tongue tip hard. Because she bit too hard, she felt a piece of the flesh on the tip of her tongue was bitten off, and the pain made her sweat all over.

She could even smell the blood in her mouth. There was no other way. If she wanted to escape, she would have to pay a price. Even if it was a heavy price, she didn't care.

So what if you endure things that ordinary people cannot endure, suffer hardships that others cannot endure, and endure pain that others cannot endure?

Anyway, her life is already ruined, even if she dies, she will take a few people with her.

In order to gain freedom, she had to swallow the tip of her tongue that she had bitten off. She had to escape. Only by escaping would she have the chance to take revenge. As long as she could get revenge, she didn't care what the price was.

Yue Niang curled up on the bed, her face as pale as paper, her brows furrowed, beads of sweat the size of beans slid down her delicate cheeks and dripped onto the brocade quilt, instantly spreading a dark color.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at the door for a while, then she raised her lips and pulled a sinister smile at the two maids standing at the door.

Then she deliberately let out a series of weak moans, her voice mixed with unspeakable pain: "Oh... it hurts, it hurts so much..., two sisters, Yue Niang's stomach hurts so much, please help Yue Niang untie the rope, Yue Niang wants... Yue Niang wants to go to the toilet...

If it's any later, Yue Niang might be on the bed... um...

Dear sisters, please be kind! Yue Niang couldn't bear the pain any more.

It hurts so much, oooo! Please... please..."

The maids guarding the door looked at each other in surprise when they heard the voice, and then they walked quickly to the bed. The maid named Hehua raised her hand and touched Yue Niang's forehead. The other maid named Qiu Tao half-knelt in front of the bed and asked with concern and caution: "Miss Yue Niang, what's wrong with you? Where are you feeling uncomfortable? Do you need me to call a doctor to treat you?"

Yue Niang reluctantly lifted her eyelids, a barely perceptible cunning flashed in her eyes, she shook her head weakly, her voice as thin as a thread: "No need, I just suddenly have an unbearable stomachache, I'm afraid I ate something bad, help me to the toilet quickly, if it's too late I'm afraid I'll... Ouch..."

Hehua and Qiutou looked at each other and nodded. Their idea was very simple. After all, this was the territory of the Lord Censor. Moreover, there were so many guards patrolling outside the villa. They didn't believe that Yue Niang could escape.

Seeing that Yue Niang's painful expression did not seem fake, they quickly took a set of clothes for Yue Niang to change into. Two of them supported Yue Niang on the left and right and walked towards the toilet.

In the yard, a few white candles were burning on candlesticks in groups of three or two.

On a dark and windy night, many things that cannot be seen in the light are hidden by the darkness.

On the way to the toilet, Yue Niang looked around carefully, searching for a route that would allow her to escape.

When they reached the toilet, He Hua looked at Yue Niang and asked with concern: "Miss, do you need me to go in with you?"

Yue Niang looked at the lotus, cold sweat running down her weak face.

In order to gain their trust, on the way here, when they were not paying attention, he pinched and twisted his thighs, and pinched himself so hard that his eyes were red.

However, even with such a confusing look on her face, she still managed to force a wry smile that made people feel pity for her.

Such a delicate beauty is so pitiful and charming that it makes people feel reluctant to say a harsh word to her.

Yue Niang pretended to be strong, sniffled a little, and said in a tender voice: "Don't bother Sister Hehua, I can do it alone. Please wait outside for a while. I will always remember your kindness to me. I am really grateful."

After Yue Niang finished speaking, she bowed to Lotus and then turned and walked into the toilet.

Fortunately, the toilet was large enough. After entering, Yue Niang kept walking around in circles thinking about what to do next.

It would definitely not be possible to deal with both of them at once, so the only option was to defeat them step by step.

Suddenly, she saw half a brick placed in the corner. Yue Niang smiled and then heard her shouting from inside: "Oh! Sister Hehua..."

Lotus, who was counting stars outside, heard Yue Niang's cry for help and hurried into the toilet without suspecting anything.

When He Hua walked into the toilet, she didn't find anything wrong with Yue Niang, but she saw a strange smile on her face.

It happened in a flash. Without giving Hehua a chance to react, Yue Niang raised the brick in her hand and smashed it hard on Hehua's head.

There was a dull thud and Lotus fell to the ground before she could even call for help.

Then, Yue Niang walked out of the toilet quickly, looked at Qiu Tao who was sticking her head into the toilet to check the situation, and raised the brick in her hand again.

After taking care of both of them, Yue Niang quickly took off Qiu Tou's coat and exchanged it with her own.

She then searched both of them and headed towards the back door.

During the day, she heard the conversation between Hehua and Qiutou and learned that there was a dog hole next to the back door.

She had to leave this troubled place before being discovered.

Yue Niang was very careful, bending over and hunching her back, and carefully searched for the dog hole they mentioned.

Maybe it was not his destiny, because after a while, the small dog hole was really found by Yue Niang.

Without caring about anything else, Yue Niang first looked around, then bent down, crawled into the dog hole, and crawled out desperately.

at the same time

Regent's House

As luck would have it, an urgent matter happened in the palace tonight and Jiang Che was caught, making it impossible for him to return home.

In the dark night, Lin Xi, wearing ragged clothes, carrying 12,000 taels of silver in his arms, took Xiao Guizi with him, put all the newly made treasures on his back, and sneaked out of the house through the back door.

Lin Xi is already familiar with sneaking.

After all, she had visited every nook and cranny in the entire imperial capital.

It can be said that as long as she wants to run away, few people can find her.

In Lin Xi's own words, she could run out of several alleys even with her eyes closed.

On the quiet streets late at night, there were almost no idle people passing by except for the occasional night watchman.

Lin Xi and Xiao Guizi were like ghosts in the night. They turned around and around and disappeared into the darkness in a short while.

Their goal was clear, they ran directly to another secluded villa in the western suburbs.

Xiao Guizi ran after him, panting and asking, "Master, if we run away like this, aren't you afraid that the prince will beat you if he catches you?"

Lin Xi laughed loudly upon hearing this: "Little Guizi, let's make a bet to see who can run faster, us or your prince can find us faster."
