Disguised as a man, she became the biggest villain in the book.

After Zheng Luoqi dismissed the others, he and Linglong became intimate.

Zheng Luoqi then picked up Princess Linglong from his arms, walked to the bedside, threw her onto the bed, and pressed down on her.

(The reason why the female lead wasn't discovered is because certain parts of her body weren't well-developed, she was wearing fakes, and she usually wore a gold-threaded soft armor for protection, so her chest was always hard to the touch. As long as she didn't take off all her clothes, no one could tell.)

Seeing this, Linglong wrapped her arms around Zheng Luoqi's neck and then moved her lips upwards.

Seeing this, Zheng Luoqi turned her head slightly and whispered seductively in Linglong's ear, "So eager!"

Before doing this, Zheng Luoqi would light a magic incense in advance, so now Zheng Luoqi is not afraid and is not afraid of being discovered at all.

After saying that, he bent down and kissed Linglong's neck, nibbling at her neck little by little.

Linglong let out a muffled groan, her eyes already glistening with tears, looking pitiful as she said, "Young master is more anxious than I am."

While sucking the red marks, Zheng Luoqi took off Linglong's clothes. Zheng Luoqi was thinking: If it's an act, it has to be real. Anyway, we've been doing it this way for so long.

The noise inside the house didn't stop until midnight.

The next morning, Linglong got up and found that Zheng Luoqi was no longer there. She got out of bed and found that her whole body felt like it was falling apart. Then she remembered something and became shy.

Hearing Linglong get up, a maid came in to help her wash up. Linglong got up and looked at the marks on her body. Thinking about what she had done with that god-like man last night, she couldn't help but feel shy. She then told the maid to help her wash up because she was going to see Zheng Luoqi.

The maids were already used to Linglong's behavior; everyone who had been favored by the young master, regardless of gender, would have the same reaction the next day.

Then he fantasized about becoming another master here, which was simply wishful thinking.

The next morning, Zheng Luoqi was summoned by Zheng Yuxiang.

"I heard you stayed up until midnight again last night," Zheng Yuxiang said with a look of amusement.

"You only played with plain clothes all night? Next time, use some props to make it more realistic."

Zheng Yuxiang's unpredictable remarks left Zheng Luoqi speechless, thinking to herself: "It's not entirely vegetarian, after all, my hand is about to cramp up."

Zheng Luoqi remained calm and paused for a moment before speaking.

"Father, we caught a few people eavesdropping last night."

"Once they spread the word, then deal with them."

"Remember to bring plenty of people with you on the anniversary of your mother's death."

Zheng Luoqi understood, nodded slightly, and a look of enlightenment flashed in her eyes.

Zheng Luoqi stepped down and instructed Boyu to bring more men that day. Every year when Zheng Luoqi and Zheng Yuxiang went to pay their respects to Zhong Shufang, they would inevitably be targeted by assassination attempts on the way. Moreover, this was a rare opportunity for the father and son to go out together, and those hiding in the shadows would certainly not let go of such a good opportunity.

Zheng Yuxiang and his son also took this opportunity to ensure that those who came to assassinate them never returned, and to make those behind them suffer a great loss. After all, it takes a lot of effort to train a group of good assassins.

.......................

After getting up and washing up early in the morning, Linglong wanted to go find Zheng Luoqi, but she was locked in the courtyard and not allowed to go anywhere.

When Linglong saw that the maid was blocking her from leaving the courtyard, she tried to force her way out. Linglong was furious, but there was nothing she could do.

Just then, a woman's voice suddenly came from the side: "Don't waste your energy, you can't get out. Just stay here and don't do anything, no one will make things difficult for you."

Linglong followed the sound and saw a bewitching woman leaning against the door, looking at her languidly. The woman wore a long yellow dress, the hem of which fluttered in the wind, exuding an indescribable charm.

Linglong was attracted to the woman before her, but at the same time, she was also wary of her. "Who are you?"

"The women living here are all women who have been favored by the young master," the woman in yellow explained leisurely.

Linglong instantly felt a hint of hostility as she looked at the woman in yellow.

The woman in yellow knew what Linglong was thinking just by looking at her expression. She scoffed and said disdainfully, "You really think the master will favor you again? The young master is notoriously promiscuous. Once he's favored you, he won't summon you a second time. I advise you to give up on that idea."

"How could this be?" Linglong asked in confusion.

Just as Linglong asked the question, she heard a male voice coming from the next courtyard.

The man cried out in a hoarse voice, "I want to see the young master! He couldn't have abandoned me here alone. If I can see him just once, he'll remember who I am! Please let me see the young master! Please tell him that Ziqing is waiting for him..."

Ziqing looked at the guards at the door and said, her voice filled with sorrow and disappointment. The guards remained unmoved, as if they had not heard Ziqing's words.

"Oh, another one gone mad!" Rose sighed, shaking her head.

"Who is he?" Linglong asked again, puzzled.

"He was also favored by the young master. The men living over there are all men who have been favored by the young master, just like us," Yueji said, looking at the situation in the courtyard over there without much concern.

Upon hearing this, Linglong seemed to recall the rumors circulating in the streets, and she felt terrible.

Seeing Linglong's despairing expression, Yueji continued to explain, "You don't need to be so desperate. The young master is a very good person. Every now and then, someone will come to ask if anyone wants to leave the manor. They will grant them their freedom and some compensation."

"As for those who haven't left yet, they must still harbor some unrealistic fantasies about the young master! After all, everyone who has ever met him remembers him fondly. Not to mention those of us who were fortunate enough to have had contact with him, we can't let go of this feeling in our hearts. We always hope that one day, the young master will remember us," Yueji said, her voice tinged with sadness as if she were thinking of something painful.

"Then...we'll never see Young Master again?" Linglong's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief, and her body trembled uncontrollably. She stood there, stunned.

She had initially thought that her entry into the Prime Minister's residence and her rapid gain of the young master's favor meant she would live a life of luxury. However, reality dealt her a heavy blow, making her realize that it was all just Linglong's own delusion.

"Not necessarily, unless you can get out," Yueji said sarcastically, a disdainful smile playing on her lips.

..........................

In the Prime Minister's dungeon, a dim oil lamp barely illuminated the surroundings.

In the dim light, a refined-looking man could be seen tightly bound to a rack. His face was as pale as paper, and his eyes were empty and lifeless. His clothes were tattered and stained with blood, clearly indicating that he had suffered cruel torture.
