Chapter 8 The Great Sin of Beheading
Relying on her status as the princess, Zhou Xiaoyuan sent someone to inform the madam, and then took Chun Nuan around for a stroll.
The Hualou Wing is a high-rise and prosperous building, located in the most prosperous area of the market. Opposite are major chambers of commerce and restaurants. It is crowded with people and is perfect for fishing in troubled waters.
"Did you notice the west door just now? Almost no one passes by there. Tonight is the busy time for the flower house to attract customers. The madam is busy dealing with dignitaries and can't take care of us. She sneaks out when she sees the right opportunity."
"it is good."
Then the two of them worked separately to figure out the topography of the flower building. If the madam hadn't put them into brightly styled dresses, they would have behaved like thieves.
Zhou Xiaoyuan walked all the way down, observing the room where the Hualou girls received guests from time to time. When she raised her head, she felt a burning gaze.
She was shocked, had she been discovered?
Following that gaze, I saw a man upstairs wearing a long navy blue coat. His dark hair was simply tied up. He had a pair of thick eyebrows as black as paint. His facial features were cold and hard. His eyes were as tight as hooks. The ground locked Zhou Xiaoyuan.
She noticed the man's right hand and looked at the exposed outline, which looked like the hilt of a sword.
He carries a sword with him and carries a violent aura, so he must be a martial arts practitioner.
The two of them just looked at each other from a distance, as if they were trying to spot each other. The more Zhou Xiaoyuan looked at his face, the more familiar it felt.
Chun Nuan, who went to explore the route, came back and asked Zhou Xiaoyuan, "Be careful, maybe they are thugs sent by the madam to monitor us secretly."
"He is not from Hualou."
"how do you know?"
Zhou Xiaoyuan paused and shook her head, "I don't understand, I just have an intuition."
Chun Nuan looked around,
"This is when the guest comes on stage to turn over the signs. Let's sneak out through the small door on the west side while there are many people."
"it is good."
There was wind under the feet of the two of them. Zhou Xiaoyuan ignored the gaze that had been staring at her and sneakily touched the small door to the west.
While passing through the central corridor, a call suddenly came from behind.
"The county master! The county master!"
The two of them froze, why is the madam here at this time?
The madam laughed so hard that her branches trembled. She bowed to Zhou Xiaoyuan and said, "How is your rest today, Princess?"
"Not bad, mom took the trouble."
Zhou Xiaoyuan's face was calm, and the madam coughed a few times, "Hualou is a place of fireworks after all. The Princess is so noble and noble that it is not convenient to stay for a long time. I have prepared a sedan chair and will take you back to the Prince's Mansion later."
Zhou Xiaoyuan was stunned, the county prince's palace?
She told a little lie casually, but she didn't expect that before she could escape, the madam took action first.
Zhou Xiaoyuan turned her head slightly and looked at Chun Nuan quietly, who shook her head slightly.
She just wanted to save her own life, but she didn't want to continue to find someone to kill her. If she was caught by the madam, she still had a chance to survive. If she went to the county prince's palace, it would be a serious crime of beheading.
Zhou Xiaoyuan held her forehead, pretended to lean on Chun Nuan, and lowered her voice, "What should I do? Is the prince a kind and easy-to-talk person?"
Chun Nuan paused, turned her back to the Madam and others, and said with a serious expression, "Although I am a village woman, pretending to be a princess is an offense to the royal majesty. No matter what, the princess will not allow ordinary people to slap her in the face. "
Okay, then it’s over now.
Just when Zhou Xiaoyuan was in a state of panic, the Madam came forward with a smile and said, "Princess, we don't have time.
If you are waiting for someone, it is better to ask your servants to freshen and change clothes for you earlier. "
