ll town was on the route between two countries, so many merchant caravans would stop here. This must be another group of travelers on the go.Thus thinking, Qin Luoyan was just about to step back to gi...The sky hadn't fully brightened yet, and on the distant mountain ranges, one could faintly see the reddish glow of the sunrise.

It must be getting light out soon.

The maid responsible for sweeping the courtyard walked inside with a broom, yawning as she went. Suddenly, she spotted a figure in the shadow under the wall and jolted awake, her sleepiness vanished. Just as she was about to scream, she suddenly saw the person's face clearly.

A woman clad in a black fur cloak stood under the banyan tree in the corner, staring into space. She tilted her head up, gazing towards the horizon. On her stunning face, there was an empty and vacant look.

The maidservant was at a loss for words, taking a while to muster the courage to call out, “Miss”

Qin Luoyan remained standing, motionless. She merely turned her head stiffly and glanced at the maid, but that single glance sent a shiver down the maid's spine. When she looked at Qin Luoyan again, there was an involuntary trace of sympathy in her eyes.

Last night, everything in the house, everyone in this courtyard must have heard it, so even a maidservant began to sympathize with her.

Qin Luoyan's mouth curled into a mournful smile. She retracted her gaze from the horizon and walked back into the room.

The maid, scrubbing the floor, stared at her retreating figure for a long time before coming back to herself. An elderly woman walked over and shook her head silently, "Now, you little girls better not have any more mischievous thoughts, right"

"Well, I won't dare again." Last night's voice from the house had already given them the most valuable lesson in their lives.

"Well then, that's good. Though Master didn't explicitly say so, he has used this person before after all, might as well treat him well." The old nanny sighed and turned to instruct the kitchen to prepare a nourishing soup for him and send it to his room.

Facing the mirror, Qin Luoyan sat before it. Her reflection was stunningly beautiful, yet her face was pale and her eyes hollow. Could she truly become Fu Zimo's caged bird, a golden canary, from this point forward

As long as she's still alive, there's always a chance to escape from here!

"What are you thinking about" With the sudden voice, Qin Luo Yan was startled. Without turning around, she saw Fu Zi Mo gradually approaching from the mirror.

He led Jinmu out the door early in the morning. It seemed like he had something to do here, but whatever it was, it had nothing to do with Qin Luoyan.

"Thinking, when would the King get tired of me" Qin Luoyan stood up, she didn't act like a spoiled child with Fu Zimu as some might expect, but instead respectfully took his cloak and helped him put it on. Like a well-behaved maid, she poured him a cup of hot tea.

Fu Zi Mo's eyes darkened, he took the tea and drank it in one gulp, but his gaze never left her. "You've surprised me,"

"Oh" Qin Luoyan sneered, "Could it be that because I was slept with by you, in order to prove my rebelliousness and purity, I should put on a show of first crying, then making a fuss, and finally hanging myself Would you like to watch"

"No, I will kill you." Fu Zimuo said easily, his gaze fell on a bowl of medicine on the table. The medicinal fragrance was already very faint; this medicine had been here for a long time.

"I know the King wouldn't like a woman who cries and makes a fuss, so I don't cry or make a scene." Qin Luoyan's voice seemed devoid of any displeasure. If crying and making a scene were effective, Fu Zimu wouldn't be as cold and cruel as rumored.

She was glad, on this point, that she had guessed right.

Seeing his gaze sweep over the medicine on the table, Qin Luoyan calmly picked up the bowl. "I'm not refusing to drink it," she said. "I just wanted to drink it in front of you. I thought that if I drank it in front of you, you would feel more at ease."

After finishing her words, Qin Luoyan picked up the porcelain bowl and drank the entire bowl of medicine in one gulp. The medicine had already cooled, she frowned slightly, but her drinking speed didn't slow down at all.

Actually, even if he didn't give her the medicine, she would have found a way to get it herself. Could she possibly want to become pregnant with this man's child

She seemed to enjoy taking the medicine, which made Fu Zimo furrow his brow slightly. In the past, when those women took their medicine, none of them weren't disappointed, and some even knelt down begging him.

"Mingri, the king will leave the border in about five days. You just wait here." Fu Zi Mo didn't like her nonchalant expression and said that before getting up and leaving.

Qin Luoyan's eyes lit up involuntarily, then quickly hid again. "Good!"

"Don't even think about running away, you can't escape." Fu Zi Mo stopped his steps and saw the fleeting joy in her eyes.

Qin Luoyan shook her head, "I won't run." To run would be foolish! In this world, which evil person would write their wicked intentions on their face

She replied curtly, which made Fu Zimu wonder if the fleeting expression on her face just now was a mistake. “It’s good that you’re not running away, after all, you’re still useful. Don’t easily anger this king and lose your life.”

After Fu Zimu left, Qin Luoyan's face collapsed in an instant. This old heavens was truly too "good" to her; she had just escaped the cage of General's Mansion and was now tied up in this courtyard by King Wuxuan.

That day, the entire courtyard was eerily quiet. Only the flowers in the courtyard seemed to have never seen the sun for a long time. Under the warmth of the sunshine, they swayed with newfound vigor.

The large banyan tree in the courtyard was Qin Luoyan's favorite. Standing under its shade, the wide branches could completely block out the sunlight while still allowing warm breezes to rustle through the space beneath them.

Qin Luoyan stood under the banyan tree for the entire afternoon until dusk. At that time, Old Nanny brought two maids to take her back to the bathing room.

"Here we go again" Qin Luoyan's throat was choked with a bloody bitterness, her voice swallowed by the silent night.

She knew this was going to be another painful and long night.

She couldn't help but remember the first time she met Fu Zimu at the inn. Back then, it was her who had approached him. If she had known what would happen today, no matter what, she wouldn't have bothered him!

The next morning, Fu Zimuo did indeed lead a group of people out of the gate. As soon as they left, the entire courtyard fell into an eerie silence. Several elderly maids and servants, whenever they saw Qin Luoyan, would only greet her with a simple "hello" before refraining from further conversation.

Elderly maidservants are very good at concealing their thoughts, but the younger ones can't hide what's on their minds. When Fu Zimo was around, the maidservants were still respectful to her, but as soon as Fu Zimo left, several young maidservants began to neglect Qin Luoyan.

"Isn't she just a woman for an old man to warm his bed She's not even a legitimate mistress, yet we have to wait on her hand and foot. What right does she have"

"That's right, I don't even know how many days I have left. Grandpa isn't going to pick someone up They say this person is notoriously jealous. You think when she gets here, she'll directly turn on this girl"

In the alley, two maids huddled in a corner, chatting oblivious to the chilling aura emanating from Qin Luo'yan just on the other side of the wall.
