Consort of a Thousand Faces

Chapter 500 (1): You May Go To The Prince Hao Residence

“How would this Prince know?” It was the first time Pei Qianhao didn’t know how to answer her question.

Xie Yun’s thoughts are constantly evolving, and the types of women he has had are manifold. Who would know what type he likes?

“Tail Xie Yun, and we will be able to locate Zhen Yu.” Su Xi-er’s tone was cold.

What exactly about Zhen Yu has attracted Xie Yun? Could it be that he developed feelings for her after she massaged his bones for a few days? Zhen Yu has endured much hardships in waiting for Brother Hu for so many years. She sacrificed the prime of her youth and so much time, refusing numerous marriage proposals. She couldn’t have fallen for Xie Yun!

“A-Jing, secretly dispatch someone to tail him, and we’ll be able to find Zhen Yu within three days. If something has really happened to Zhen Yu, I’ll definitely exterminate him!” Su Xi-er’s expression was vicious.

I absolutely abhor men who make use of women the most! Especially those who make a move on those weak and innocent women!

Pei Qianhao nodded. “There has to be a reason for people looking alike in this world. Since the person she likes, Brother Hu, looks similar to this Prince, I will definitely help her.”

Mei Jinxiu didn’t expect that it was the work of Xie Yun again. This despicable and vile person! Both Xie Yun and Xie Liuli are born of the same mother, but why is Xie Liuli so nice, yet Xie Yun is so abominable! I shouldn’t have treated him. I should have made some poisonous power and poisoned him to death! Who asked him to harm people?!

A moment later, Su Xi-er and Pei Qianhao boarded the horse carriage, swiftly returning to the Prince Hao Residence.

Right after they alighted, Su Xi-er spotted the horse carriage from the Commandery Prince Residence, and Xie Liuli was dressed in a purple dress as she stood beside the carriage.

When Xie Liuli saw her, she immediately smiled. “You’re back.”

“Liuli, why did you come today?”

“Elder Brother is no longer grounding me, and he has allowed me to come and look for you. Let’s be friends from now on, alright?” Xie Liuliu gave a sincere smile, making people unable to refuse her.

It’s a critical juncture right now, yet Xie Liuli suddenly came to the Prince Hao Residence. I can’t help but be suspicious. Could Xie Yun have used even his own younger sister?

“Liuli, do you know about Zhen Yu’s disappearance?” Su Xi-er asked with a slight probing look in her eyes.

“I do. That day, my brother had a horse carriage send her back to the medical clinic. Early the next morning, Miss Mei came to our residence to demand an explanation, but Zhen Yu had already been sent away. I personally saw her boarding the carriage with my own eyes. Could she have received some news about Brother Hu and went to search for him by herself?” Xie Liuli earnestly said the truth.

Su Xi-er was puzzled. “Did you really see Zhen Yu board the carriage with your own eyes? Did it leave the residence? After the carriage left, where was your elder brother?”

Xie Liuli noticed the inspecting look in her eyes. “You suspect that my brother abducted Zhen Yu? That can’t be. Although he likes Zhen Yu...”

“Likes Zhen Yu; are you sure?” Su Xi-er immediately caught the crux of the matter, and immediately voiced out.

Xie Liuli’s eyes held a complicated gaze. “It’s the first time my brother’s heart has moved, and he took a liking to Zhen Yu. But he knows that Zhen Yu has someone she likes and didn’t force her. After Zhen Yu left that night, I kept accompanying my brother, and there were no guards coming in and out of the residence. My brother definitely wouldn’t have abducted Zhen Yu; he wouldn’t harm her.”

“Liuli, I’m certain that it was your brother who abducted Zhen Yu. Even if my next words will hurt you, I have to speak the truth about your brother’s character; he is unscrupulous and too despicable.”

Zhen Yu stopped herself as her hands tightly gripped the quilt.

He’s threatening me. If I commit suicide, Peach Blossom Village is be doomed. To think that he’s so vicious. Why does he want to treat me like this? Even after persevering in my search for Brother Hu for so many years, this is the result I get.

Although the door wasn’t locked, she knew that she wouldn’t be able to escape with the guards around in the courtyard.. After collecting her thoughts, Zhen Yu stood up and ignored the pain in her legs as she slowly put on the clothes on the floor.

Finally, she sat at the edge of the bed in a daze, the past splendor that had lit her eyes faded away.

Not long after, a knock sounded at the door, and someone respectfully spoke. “Miss, have you gotten up? The physician and maidservant arranged for you have arrived.”

Zhen Yu kept quiet. I have neither the energy nor inclination to speak.

After a long while, the door was pushed open from the outside. A young lady dressed in coarse clothes and an old man with a white moustache walked in.

“Miss, the Commandery Prince has entrusted this old man to nourish your body.” The old man set the medical box down and took a few steps forward, stopping before her to feel her pulse.

Zhen Yu moved to the side and watched him with vigilance. “Leave. My body is very well, and doesn’t need nourishment.”

The young lady who came in together with the old man tried to coax Zhen Yu, “Miss, this servant is Xiao Ya, and I’ll be in charge of serving you for this period of time. You seem to have a deficiency in vitaliy, and your body seems weak. If you don’t nourish it, what are you going to do if you get sick?”

“All of you are Commandery Prince Xie’s people. I don’t need you to be hypocrites.”

Xiao Ya could discern the young woman’s disgust for Xie Yun, and an idea came to her. “Miss, even if you want to leave, you still have to nourish your body well. Otherwise, you’ll immediately faint even if you escape. If you really detest the Commandery Prince, I also won’t let you continue to be tormented.”

Zhen Yu raised her head to look at her. “You will help me escape?”

“Mmm, although I have been a maidservant in the Commandery Prince Residence for many years, I still understand certain matters. Miss, allow me to say something honest. The Commandery Prince likes you; following him will allow you to enjoy a life of glory and luxury as the revered Commandery Princess Consort. Apart from Princess Consort Hao, you will be the most honourable person in Beimin.” Xiao Ya went forward and patted Zhen Yu’s shoulder.

Having been a maidservant for many years, I have learnt to observe people’s expression and behaviours to deduce their thoughts; this is the area I excel in most.

Zhen Yu’s expression was stunned for a moment before she looked towards the old man. “I don’t wish to become pregnant. Prepare a bowl of pregnancy prevention soup for me.”

The old man was taken aback. The Commandery Prince’s orders were to nourish this young lady’s body so that she could become pregnant as soon as possible.

Xiao Ya spoke up. “Miss, if you drink too much pregnancy prevention soup, I’m afraid that you really won’t be able to become a mother in the future.”

Zhen Yu tightly clenched her fists. I have no face to meet Brother Hu anymore, and I won’t marry anyone else in this lifetime; it doesn’t matter whether I can become a mother. “Physician, just simmer a bowl for me; I want it today. If you prepare it for me, I will agree to let both of you stay here.”

The old man still wanted to persuade Zhen Yu, but Xiao Ya stopped him. “Since Miss doesn’t want to become pregnant, then let her be. Secretly simmer a bowl of pregnancy prevention soup.”

Finally, the old man sighed and promised her. Only then did Zhen Yu allow the two of them to remain.

After the old man walked out of the door, Xiao Ya followed and softly instructed, “Prepare the soup to nourish the body and lie to the young lady that it’s pregnancy prevention soup. It’s not good for a woman’s body to drink too much pregnancy prevention soup. If the Commandery Prince blames us, we are doomed.”

The old man agreed. “That’s the only option we have.”
