In the pitch-black room, while not completely dark, one couldn't make out a person's face. Hua Kai stood there stiffly, then heard heavy breathing in the air. The sound grew deeper and more disordered, accompanied by alternating bursts of unbearable sobs, like a strange invitation that warmed Hua Kai's chest.
Her feet moved involuntarily toward the man. In the darkness, she saw the man seem to sit up suddenly, and then a glimmer of light appeared in the darkness—the man's bright eyes.
The man's voice was sexy and husky, tinged with alertness: "Who goes there?"
Hua Kai's heart pounded wildly, feeling as if it were about to leap out of her chest. An indescribable sense of happiness washed over her. Unaware of shyness or reserve, she strode towards the man, giggling, "I'm here to serve you."
Hua Kai kept in mind Consort Li's instructions, not mentioning her own identity or Mu Yunhe's identity, as this would make it easier for Mu Yunhe to accept her in the future.
The man's voice instantly tightened, and he roared angrily, "Who gave you permission to serve me?"
Hua Kai wanted to cover it up, but when she thought about how she wanted to win Mu Yunhe's heart and get him to take revenge on Consort Li for her, she naturally didn't need to cover anything up for Consort Li. So she said shyly, "I am here to serve you on Consort Li's orders."
Consort Li?!
The man's eyes, hidden in the darkness, seemed to brighten unseen for a moment, then a strange, indescribable, bone-deep pleasure coursed through his body. He abruptly scrambled onto the table, his breathing heavy and rapid, his body weak and aching, the seed of a secret fire within him fermenting wildly. He was practically at his breaking point.
At this point, without needing to say more, he already knew what was wrong with him.
But how could he have been poisoned by aphrodisiacs?! Who would be so bold as to poison him in the Li family? Moreover, there was a woman in front of him claiming to be sent by Consort Li. The more the man thought about it, the more suspicious it seemed; something was definitely wrong.
Sensing the woman's approach, the man suppressed his impulse and gritted his teeth, saying, "You said Consort Li sent you? Did you drug me?"
Hua Kai giggled, "Is Your Highness shy? It was Consort Li who sent me. Consort Li knows you don't usually get close to women, and she was worried you'd get sick if you waited too long, so she sent me to serve you properly. Finally, the drug, hehehe, it wasn't me who did it, Consort Li was afraid Your Highness wouldn't be satisfied, so she specially ordered someone to do it. Your Highness, a moment of passion is worth a thousand pieces of gold, let's not waste this precious time."
Hua Kai did everything in her power to sow discord among Consort Li, aiming to completely tarnish her reputation in front of Mu Yunhe and ensure she could never rise again. The prerequisite for this was to make Mu Yunhe utterly despise Consort Li. What man would like to be seen as mature but impotent, needing drugs to perform such acts? Although Hua Kai was insane, her desire for revenge remained unwavering.
The man seemed stunned, shocked, and utterly disbelieving, roaring, "This is impossible!"
“Why not? Consort Li is only thinking of you. Let her serve you well. She’ll be very obedient.” Hua Kai couldn’t wait any longer and walked up to him. Thinking of Mu Yunhe’s handsome face, which would soon be completely hers, she could soon defeat Luo Zhiheng, possess Mu Yunhe, and sit on the throne of the princess. Hua Kai’s eyes were almost red with excitement.
Fortunately, the flower's appearance was not visible in the darkness; otherwise, its grotesque and distorted face would surely have terrified anyone.
The man felt a hand grab his collar, and then that hand boldly touched his face.
In that instant, the man felt that this was not a woman's hand! The rough, wrinkled, hard, and even uneven surface of the hand indicated that it bore chilling marks and lines. The moment the smooth skin was touched by this hand, he felt his hair stand on end and his whole body tense up.
"Get out of my way!" the man shouted, but his voice was weak and powerless; he didn't even have the strength to shake off the woman's hand.
As Huakai touched the smooth skin, a hint of madness flashed in her eyes. An excited scream escaped her throat as she leaned down, her dry, twisted lips immediately landing on the man's smooth skin. Although she couldn't see in the darkness, relying on her senses and the position of her hands, Huakai's lips sensitively landed on the man's forehead and face.
In an instant, wet kisses followed one after another, and saliva uncontrollably dripped all over the man's face.
The man, filled with disgust and humiliation, was almost driven to rage. He tried with all his might but couldn't push the woman off him. Instead, he felt his strength draining away faster with each effort. The woman, on the other hand, possessed a strength akin to that of a madwoman, holding him firmly beneath her, rendering him immobile.
The man felt utterly humiliated, and a surge of anger and resentment rose within him. Consort Li? Why was she treating him this way? Didn't she know that her actions would only make him feel humiliated and hurt? He couldn't understand why, at a time like this, she could still pull off so many incomprehensible things.
The flower's mouth inadvertently touched the man's mouth, then its eyes lit up, and it focused its ferocity on the man's mouth.
The man desperately tried to dodge, but he was always too weak to avoid being kissed. A disgusting taste filled his mouth, and the anger and frustration in his eyes led him to do something a man shouldn't do. He bit down hard on the flower's lips and tongue, recklessly biting down, instantly filling his mouth with the taste of blood.
Hua Kai screamed and pushed the man away, even slapping him across the face in a frenzy. She grabbed his hair, shook him violently, and slammed his head against the ground, screaming furiously, "You bastard! I'll kill you! I'll kill you! How dare you bite me? I want you to be my man! I want you to marry me! Ahhh!"
Hua Kai is a mentally unstable madwoman who is also very vicious. The man was quickly knocked dizzy and his reaction ability was weakened. In addition, due to the damage caused by the drugs, the man's mind gradually became unclear.
At this moment, Hua Kai seemed to realize something and began frantically tearing at the man's clothes, biting and nibbling at his body, leaving bloody marks. She was like a wild beast that had been thirsty for too long, wishing she could drink the man's blood to quench her thirst. 19.
The man's clothes were quickly ripped open, his chest completely exposed. The sudden coolness seemed to temporarily revive him, and he forcefully slapped Hua Kai across the chest. Hua Kai rolled away with a thud. The man scrambled to his feet, staggered to the door, and weakly pounded on it, pleading, "Help! Let me out! Someone help me..."
But no one responded outside, as if all cries for help were drowned out by the merciless night. The more one cried for help, the more helpless and desolate it became.
The man was tightly hugged from behind, his heavy breathing coming from his ears and shoulders. He was under the influence of aphrodisiacs and couldn't resist such temptation. Hua Kai's hands reached out from behind, using all the tricks she had learned to please men on this man she believed could bring her wealth and glory.
Hua Kai had been carefully trained by Luo Ningshuang, so she was naturally extremely knowledgeable about matters between men and women. At this moment, with her full attention, she was able to control a man's life and manipulate him at will.
The man couldn't resist such provocation and quickly succumbed. The drug took effect, and with the masterful manipulation, he soon succumbed to the lust under this conspiracy. Although he felt humiliated, unwilling, and furious, he ultimately couldn't resist the allure and destructive pleasure.
The room gradually filled with sounds that made one blush and their heart race. After the man had released himself once, he regained some clarity in his mind and began to resist and refuse. But Hua Kai had just experienced the beauty of the relationship between a man and a woman and was unwilling to let the man go. In an instant, the two of them were wrestling together.
The man was also pinned down by the strong flower, and it looked as if the flower was forcing the man.
As she danced wildly, the man cried out in pain, as if he couldn't bear the strain. It seemed he was suffering from some unspeakable pain, inflicted by this crazed woman. This woman, however, was completely reckless in her pursuit of pleasure, treating the man as nothing more than a tool.
Luo Zhiheng lay on the roof with a strange expression. A large hand reached in from the side, and a cold, hard voice with an unnatural awkwardness commanded, "You brat, don't look."
Her soft voice was full of threat and anger. Luo Zhiheng's eyes were ferocious, but her voice was laughing. She pulled Mu Yunhe's hand and said in a coquettish tone that was a little violent: "Oh, look at this, it's really intense. If we hadn't been more skilled and seen through and dodged Consort Li's trick first, you would be the one being pressed down by that crazy ugly monster right now."
"Consort Li has quite the grand scheme. She doesn't act rashly until she does, and then she makes such a stunning move. Tsk tsk tsk, just look at the lewd and wanton manner of her good maid. You can imagine how utterly depraved Consort Li is. This time, let her son have a good look and experience what it's like to be schemed against by his own mother."
"Alright, let's get out of here quickly, and continue watching the show later." Mu Yunhe pulled her along, then looked at Luo Erduo, who was also staring blankly at the scene below. Mu Yunhe slapped Luo Erduo on the head with a very unpleasant expression and said angrily, "What are you looking at? Get us out of here now."
Luo Erduo's face flushed, her eyes were so tender they were almost dripping with tears, and she was still a little lost in thought. Her big eyes stared at Mu Yunhe, which made Luo Zhiheng so angry that she pinched her ear hard and said, "Is it that pretty? Look at your behavior. You're really embarrassing me."
They now have a telepathic connection; when Luo Erduo is moved, Luo Zhiheng can sense it. Fortunately, Mu Yunhe had done something to Luo Erduo beforehand, which kept her under control and prevented her from causing trouble at this crucial moment. But judging from Luo Erduo's current state, even if she's restrained, she's probably still in some danger.
Luo Erduo swallowed hard and uttered a shocking statement that made people both laugh and cry: "What a waste! Although he's not as good-looking as the young prince, he's still quite handsome. He's good for me, but instead, an ugly monster has ruined him. Where is justice?"
Luo Zhiheng almost burst out laughing, collapsing into Mu Yunhe's arms as she tried to suppress her laughter, her shoulders trembling.
Mu Yunhe couldn't help but chuckle, amused by Luo Erduo's expression as if the sky had fallen. After a while, he said, "If you behave well, your master will find you a man even more handsome than him to be your husband. But if you disobey, you will be left to live a lonely life and never experience the pleasures of a man."
"No!" The sharp voice was quickly muffled by the quick-witted Luo Zhiheng; the two brief words didn't echo in the night sky for long. Luo Zhiheng cautiously looked into the house. The two people were still struggling and tearing at each other, making loud, unrestrained noises, clearly unaware of what Luo Zhiheng had just heard. Only then did Luo Zhiheng relax.
He slapped Luo Erduo on the head: "Are you looking for death! What are you yelling about? Take us away right now."
Luo Erduo reluctantly shut his mouth, preparing to leave with the two of them. However, a group of people approached from not far away, their lights illuminating the area ahead. They could no longer leave unnoticed; instead, they would be discovered. It would be better for them to stay here and wait.
The people who arrived all wore expressions of worry and apprehension. When they reached the courtyard gate, they stopped and saw that the door to the main house was open. The leader, Mr. Li, said, "Let's go and see if the young prince and princess are resting?"
A maid immediately took a lantern and went to the main room, knocked on the door and spoke, but after waiting for a while there was no response from inside. The maid hurriedly ran back and said nervously, "Master, there is no response from inside. Should we go in and take a look?"
Mr. Li frowned, somewhat unsure of what to do. He had come because his ancestor had said he felt something was about to happen and was uneasy, so he had asked him to come and take a look. Mu Yunhe had been silent since arriving at the courtyard, and even though it was already dark, he hadn't said he was leaving or staying the night. This made Mr. Li suspicious, so he came to investigate, but he found something very strange about the courtyard.
Feeling even more uneasy, Mr. Li personally walked to the front of the main room and respectfully asked, "Is the young prince here?"
He called out several times but received no response. He grew increasingly panicked and quickly had someone bring a lamp inside. He looked around, but there was no one there. There wasn't even a trace of anyone having moved.
Mu Yunhe isn't here?!
Mr. Li panicked instantly. Mu Yunhe was now a rare treasure, and there were definitely many people who coveted it. If he disappeared without a trace from home, the Li family would definitely be in deep trouble and face endless consequences.

357 A play within a play: Caught in the act!
"Quickly, send someone to tell the matriarch that the young prince is missing. Also, immediately send people to search the house, don't miss any corner of the courtyard, we must find the young prince and the others. Also send someone to fetch Consort Li." Master Li gave instructions in a flurry of activity, but he was so concerned that he forgot to search the courtyard.
Half of the men he brought were immediately dispatched. Mr. Li was frantic in the main room, his face shifting anxiously. He feared that Consort Li, that wicked woman, had truly lost her mind and was recklessly trying to deal with Mu Yunhe. If she could handle him, that would be one thing, but could that heartless fool Consort Li possibly manage Mu Yunhe? Moreover, Mu Yunhe had Luo Zhiheng by his side, which was like adding wings to a tiger. He feared that if Consort Li made a move this time, he would lose everything. The entire Li family might even be dragged down with her!
"Damn it! How could I have given birth to such a good-for-nothing? He's utterly worthless." Mr. Li cursed angrily.
After a while, the whole house was alarmed. The Li family's house, though dark, was as bright as day. Lanterns and torches illuminated the night, and all the Li family's maids and servants came out, determined to find the person even if it meant digging three feet into the ground. 19.
At that moment, Mr. Li, unable to contain himself any longer, stepped out of the main house, ready to personally go and search for them. The matter concerned the life and death and future of hundreds of members of the Li family; he could no longer sit idly by.
Just as he passed the door of the west wing, a loud bang from the dark room made Mr. Li stop in his tracks.
"What was that sound? Did you hear it?" Mr. Li said coldly.
"Grandpa, the sound seems to be coming from the west wing. Could it be a mouse?"
"Nonsense! Can a mouse make that much noise?" Mr. Li said angrily. "This room is dark and the door is closed. There shouldn't be anyone here, right? Go and check."
The servant immediately carried the lantern over, and upon seeing what was inside, his expression changed drastically. He exclaimed in surprise, "Master, this door isn't locked with a lock, it's secured with a hairpin!"
"What?" Mr. Li was taken aback and hurried over. Upon seeing the door, his expression shifted dramatically. The hairpin was wedged shut; clearly, someone had done it intentionally. The west wing was unlocked. Mr. Li quickly and respectfully called out, "Is the young prince inside? Could he please answer this old man?"
But there was no sound from inside for a long time. Mr. Li was filled with doubt and uncertainty. He didn't know if the person inside was Mu Yunhe. But he also heard some noises. Upon closer listening, he realized that it was the sound of a man and woman making love. Although they were extremely suppressed and careful, they still could not hide it from Mr. Li. Moreover, the woman's voice inside was obviously wanton.
Mr. Li's face was like a palette of colors, instantly changing in all directions. It was impossible to describe what those colors were. His feelings were just like his expression: absurd, incredulous, and bewildered.
Could it be that Mu Yunhe couldn't resist making love with the nude photos right here? Judging from her voice, Luo Zhiheng is really quite wanton, moaning so beautifully. But now that she's already made a sound, Mu Yunhe inside probably already knows. Interrupting Mu Yunhe's good time will likely displease him.
Mr. Li stood there, caught in a dilemma. Meanwhile, the man inside was also caught in a dilemma, and was furious.
During their struggle, he and Huakai knocked over a chair, attracting the attention of others. This made him feel extremely ashamed, as he didn't want anyone to discover that he was having an affair with another woman. However, things were already out of control and couldn't be stopped. The sound of roasted peanuts coming from outside further enraged the man, making him increasingly anxious.
He couldn't let anyone outside know he was here! But what if they came in? Just as the man was filled with anxiety, the voice outside that made him nervous called out the words "Young Prince." In that instant, something exploded in the man's mind, shattering into pieces. A sharp pain struck, and he felt as if his heart and soul had been completely destroyed by those three words!
Why the young prince?!
Grandfather actually called out to Mu Yunhe? Should Mu Yunhe be here? Where is this place? Isn't this where he lives? And what does what he's experiencing have to do with Mu Yunhe? Who is this woman meant for?
The man's eyes nearly burst open with a barrage of questions, a ghostly light surfacing above the broken blood vessels beneath his eyes. He gripped Hua Kai's soft flesh tightly, showing no tenderness whatsoever, causing Hua Kai to stop all movement in pain and collapse to the side.
The sounds coming from inside the room made the people outside even more nervous. Mr. Li had now confirmed that the man and woman in the room were Mu Yunhe and Luo Zhiheng, and he was feeling increasingly awkward. Just as he was about to leave, Consort Li arrived.
Consort Li, all dressed to the nines and beaming with joy, turned around and said in an undisguisedly loud and cheerful voice, "Father! What are you doing here?" As she spoke, Consort Li listened carefully to the sounds coming from the room. After hearing those ambiguous sounds, Consort Li felt at ease, knowing that the situation was under control and that she had been caught red-handed.
"Hmph, I should be asking you that. How did you treat the young prince?" He didn't even let anyone see this. How are we going to clean up this mess now? Mr. Li couldn't be blunt, but his anger didn't subside. He looked at Consort Li with disappointment and glanced at the room.
Consort Li's eyes darted around, and she thought to herself, "What a godsend!" She was just worrying about how to publicize Mu Yunhe's scandal to the world, to let everyone know, when her father arrived with his men. First, she'd make Mu Yunhe's scandal a done deal, spreading it throughout the Li family. With so many eyes watching, Mu Yunhe wouldn't be able to defend himself even if he had a hundred mouths. Besides, if her father saw Mu Yunhe in such a disgraceful state, he would surely be pleased.
This means the Li family has seized a handle against Mu Yunhe. Mu Yunhe and Luo Zhiheng's improper and dissolute behavior is a crime that, even if reported to the emperor, would be irrefutable and could not be denied. It would surely bring down Mu Yunhe.
Thinking this through, Consort Li felt much better, and her smile became even more confident and haughty: "Why does Father look so pleased? I have someone guarding the young prince's place; it's one of my maids. The young princess just said she had a stomachache and went to the outhouse. I saw that she hadn't returned for quite a while, so I went to look for her myself, but I couldn't find her. I've already sent my maid with the two servants the young princess brought to look for her. They'll be back as soon as they find her."
"I was worried about the young prince, so I rushed back to check on him," Consort Li said gently. Then she glanced at the west wing, her eyes widening in surprise. "Huh? Why are the lights off in the room? Where is the maid who was guarding the door? That little hussy, how dare she slack off! I'll skin her alive when I get back."
Consort Li's vivid performance was merely a facade, a way to keep the charade going. Meanwhile, Master Li's face had turned ashen. He grabbed Consort Li's arm and hissed angrily, "What did you say? The young princess isn't here? You've arranged for the young prince to stay in the west wing? You've assigned maids to guard him?"
"Yes, what's wrong, Father?" Consort Li smiled calmly, but the word "Father" seemed to carry a deeper meaning.
Mr. Li really wished he could slap Consort Li to death!
At this point, was there anything he didn't understand? Since Luo Zhiheng wasn't here, the woman in this room was most likely a maidservant arranged by Consort Li to guard the room!
Normally, it wouldn't be a big deal for the master to send a maid, but the problem is that they don't know if Mu Yunhe wanted the maid himself. If he did, it would be fine, but if the maid seduced Mu Yunhe, and after Mu Yunhe took advantage of her, he turned around and accused the Li family of having impure motives by sending a maid to seduce him, then they would be in a difficult position.
Moreover, there's Luo Zhiheng. If Luo Zhiheng causes trouble, given how much Mu Yunhe dotes on her, he absolutely won't side with the Li family. Besides, the feud between Consort Li and Mu Yunhe is practically irreconcilable. Mu Yunhe, as long as he has any dignity, won't forget the countless attempts to harm her. How could he willingly allow Consort Li to be manipulated by a mere maid?
How foolish!
