Step by step, he finally arrived at a room in the corner of the second floor.
Li Yuanshao turned around and looked at Li Yuan’an. His usually timid eyes were now emitting a cold light. “Li Yuan’an, don’t you like to torture? 1’11 let you have enough of it today.”
Li Yuan’an looked at Li Yuanshao as if he was looking at a Grim Reaper. He was terrified. His body shrank back, and his head was covered in cold sweat. He shook his head crazily.
Li Yuanshao smiled coldly. He patted Li Yuan’an’s face and said coldly, “Send him in.”
Two subordinates dragged the struggling Li Yuan’an into the room, tied him to the bed, and left.
Li Yuanshao placed his hands on the railing. The red railing made his fingers look even fairer, and his veins were visible.
Soon, screams came from the room…
Li Yuanshao stood rooted to the ground and slowly clenched his fists. He looked at the customers in the lobby on the first floor and felt the pleasure of revenge.
Li Yuan’an had bullied him since he was young, and he tolerated it because he wanted to stay in the mansion and play the role of the Seventh Prince.
But now, Li Yuan’an had gone too far and wanted to violate him. He felt disgusted and would never tolerate it.
Since Li Yuan’an liked to play with people so much, he might as well let Li Yuan’an have a taste of being played!
However, Li Yuanshao had clearly underestimated how perverted Li Yuan’an was.
At first, there were screams of pain in the room, but towards the end, the screams turned into comfortable moans. It sounded like Li Yuan’an was not having enough and wanted more…
Li Yuanshao rolled his eyes in disgust and thought to himself, Why does it look more like a reward than a punishment?
He called the pimp over, “Don’t let him die, understand?”
It was not that he could not bear to see Li Yuan’an die, but that this person was still useful for the time being.
The pimp quickly replied, “Yes, Master.”
Li Yuanshao glanced at the room and smiled coldly. He turned around and left.
Early in the morning.
After knocking on the door, Chu Qingzhi pushed open the door and entered Wu Yaqing’s room. “Princess, I have to go out.”
Wu Yaqing was still sleeping. When she heard this, she opened her sleepy eyes and asked in a daze, “When are you coming back?”
Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “1 don’t know when I’ll be back. Just like before, 1’11 come back to look for you after I’m done.”
Wu Yaqing yawned. “Alright, I wish you all the best.”
“Sleep well.” Chu Qingzhi tucked Wu Yaqing in and left the room.
“Jinghong, let’s go.”
Tang Jinghong nodded and walked out of the inn with Chu Qingzhi.
The two of them went for breakfast before going straight to a courtyard
There had been a fierce battle in the courtyard last night. Many places had been destroyed. Now, they were being cleaned up and repaired. The courtyard seemed a little busy.
Li Yuanshao was sitting by the bed, thinking about what happened yesterday.
How did Princess Consort know that he was here?
Could it be that there was a traitor among his men?
However, even if there was a traitor, he was not afraid. It was only a matter of time before the Lord of the Northern Border fell. No one could change it. So what if the Princess Consort knew? There was only a little she could do.
At the thought of this, he felt a little relieved.
Suddenly, he felt an itch in his throat and began to cough rapidly.
“Pfft—”
After a violent cough, Li Yuanshao could not help but spit out a large mouthful of blood. His face quickly turned pale, and his vision darkened as he fainted.
Gong Wentang was helping to clean up outside. As a martial arts practitioner, his senses were relatively sharp. When he heard Li Yuanshao vomit blood, he hurriedly pushed the door open and entered.
“Yuanshao, Yuanshao…”
Seeing the blood on the ground and Li Yuanshao’s clothes, he was shocked.
“Yuanshao, what’s wrong?”
Li Yuanshao opened his weak eyes. “Wentang, I’m afraid I don’t have much time left.” His weak voice was filled with sorrow. He still had many things to do, but now he was actually going to die!
Gong Wentang helped Li Yuanshao up and comforted him. “What nonsense are you talking about? It won’t happen. I picked the snow lotus. When Chusheng recovers, he’ll make medicine for you. You’ll be fine.”
Li Yuanshao closed his eyes. He did not listen to a single word Gong Wentang said. He stammered, “Wentang, I’m not afraid of death. It’s just that 1 have so many regrets. I’m so unwilling…”
Gong Wentang’s eyes turned red, and he felt terrible. “Yuanshao, you won’t die. You won’t die.”
Li Yuanshao closed his eyes gently and fell into complete darkness.
Gong Wentang hurriedly checked Li Yuanshao’s pulse. Seeing that his pulse was still beating, he heaved a sigh of relief.
He placed Li Yuanshao back on the bed and left the room.
He wanted to see if Chusheng was awake.
However, just as he walked out of the door, he saw Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong walking into the courtyard. He hurriedly went up to them in surprise. “Young Heroes, you’re here.”
Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong were also very surprised.
Tang Jinghong asked, “Why are you here?”
Gong Wentang said excitedly, “I’m here to see Yuanshao. You’re here to look for him too, right? Unfortunately, he fainted. I’m about to look for Chusheng to treat him. Wait a moment.”
Chu Qingzhi said, “I’ll go take a look.”
Gong Wentang stopped in his tracks and asked in surprise, “You know medicine?”
Chu Qingzhi nodded. “A little. Let’s see.”
Gong Wentang hesitated for a moment before saying, “Follow me.”
The three of them entered Li Yuanshao’s room. The air seemed to be filled with the smell of blood.
Chu Qingzhi walked to the bed and took Li Yuanshao’s pulse..
