At the beginning, I was a rich female prisoner

Chapter 40 After the rain, the sky is clear

When Yu Yunxin arrived outside the execution ground, she smelled a strong smell of blood and immediately jumped off her horse. The smell outside the execution ground was too bloody. There were more than ten lives lost here. She was sensitive to the strong smell of blood. In addition, she fell all the way, and her stomach was churning and she vomited everything. It was all the milk tea and snacks she had with Madam Yang. Yu Yunxin didn't know why she vomited when this body smelled a strong smell of blood.

"Xin'er!" Yu Linshan supported Yu Yunxin, who was about to faint from vomiting, and said, "You have been unable to smell blood since you were a child. Let me help you go to a teahouse far away to rest."

"Dad!" Yu Yunxin grabbed Yu Linshan and called softly.

"Foster father is fine. He has kung fu skills to rely on. Don't worry. I heard from the people here that foster father supervised the execution of Wu Jinke, Wu Jincai and County Magistrate Ge. The execution ground was too bloody, so I will take you to a teahouse far away to rest." Yu Linshan said as he supported Yu Yunxin and came to a teahouse.

She only heard the storyteller inside talking about what happened at the execution ground. These storytellers were more informed than she, a princess.

After entering the box, he said, "You rest here. I'll go see my foster father and call your maid over."

Yu Linshan walked out after he finished speaking. As soon as he reached the street, he bumped into Wu Yue. He saw that it was a girl with a bad complexion who was almost knocked down by him. He helped her up and asked, "Girl, are you okay?" Wu Yue was being chased by several women. She shook her head and turned around and ran away.

"Don't let...the Wu family...get away, chase them quickly." The two women who were following Wu Yue for more than ten meters were panting and could hardly speak clearly.

Yu Linshan didn't hear anything and quickly ran towards the execution ground.

At this time, Wu Yue turned into the backyard of a brothel. She didn't know where this place was. Now the women didn't chase her here, so she was safe.

Just after squatting down to rest for a while, the door was pushed open by a slim woman, and she saw Wu Yue sitting on a stone bench in the backyard to rest.

"Aren't you Miss Yue?" the woman said, looking at several brothel thugs in the room and made a gesture behind their backs.

Wu Yue looked at the woman curiously, thinking she looked familiar but not recognizing her, so she asked, "How do you know me?"

The woman smiled and said Miss Yue, "You are a noble person who forgets things easily." The woman smiled.

Suddenly she remembered something and was about to turn around and run, but a thug blocked her back door and smiled lewdly.

“I never thought that the eldest daughter of Lord Tongzhou, who is usually so high and mighty, would end up here with me.” The woman sneered.

"Are you Aunt Zhang who was sold by my father?" Wu Yue said while pointing at Aunt Zhang with shaking hands.

Aunt Zhang is different now than before. She is now dressed like a brothel owner, looking elegant and graceful, with a hint of smile on her face.

At the age of sixteen, I entered Wu Tongzhou's mansion as a maid. Because I was pretty, Wu Jinke took a fancy to me and made me his concubine. I didn't expect that you and the first lady would frame me and let the servants rape me because of my beauty. When Wu Jinke saw it, he didn't listen to my explanation, so I was sold here.

"I didn't expect that the Wu family was raided just half a month ago. Boss Pei, who fell in love with me, gave this brothel to me and asked me to manage it. Now I am the owner of this brothel." Aunt Zhang smiled while touching Wu Yue's delicate chin.

"What do you want to do? Since you know I'm a lady, you should let me go." Wu Yue wanted to step back but she was no match for the two big men.

"Your Wu family has done so many things to force women of good families into prostitution. Half of my sisters were forced into this by your Wu family." Aunt Zhang said coldly.

"Someone, tie her up for me." After Aunt Zhang said this, she sent several tall and strong thugs to tie up Wu Yue and carried her into the building.

"Madam, this little woman is so beautiful." Boss Pei said as he looked at Wu Yue in front of him and rubbed his greasy hands.

"Master, she is not a good person. She just brought a few masked men to rob the execution ground. Now I'm afraid there are soldiers outside who want to arrest her." Aunt Zhang said as she twisted her slender waist and sat next to Boss Pei.

"Then why did you capture her? Although I'm a businessman, I've heard about the Wu family's affairs. No matter how beautiful she is, she can't stay here. Send her back to the government immediately." Boss Pei said angrily when he heard this.

"Master, please listen to me." Aunt Zhang said softly, "It was the Wu family who caused us sisters to enter this brothel. The Wu family is now getting what they deserve, but why should we suffer all this?"

"Madam, what do you want to do?" asked Boss Pei.

"I want to let the Wu family have a taste of the hardships. Master Pei, don't you have several brothels in Jinling? Didn't I tell you about my proposal?" Aunt Zhang said.

"You said to bring the women from the brothels in Nanling County to Jinling, and then send the women from Jinling to Nanling County." Master Pei said.

"That's right. In the future we can take in more young ladies from families like this one. Master, you said that it's difficult to train wild girls from the country and that they are too wild and hard to tame. Only young ladies from official families are good. They not only have delicate skin, but are also very suitable for dignitaries. We should not do business with the poor, but we should do business with the aristocracy." Aunt Zhang said with a beaming face.

"That's right! You are very smart and have a lot of ideas." Boss Pei gently touched Aunt Zhang's forehead with his fingertips.

Wu Yue hated the two people in front of her at this moment, but now she was speechless.

"Why are you screaming, you dead girl? I will send you to Jinling tonight and just wait for you!" Aunt Zhang squatted in front of Wu Yue and sneered.

"Yu Tinghai, Yu Yunxin, I want you and your daughter to pay me back double for the suffering I've endured today." Wu Yue roared in her heart. She was originally the daughter of the noble Lord of Tongzhou, but now she can't even see the Crown Prince. She regretted why she didn't rush over that day. It was better to live or die than to stay here. As she thought about it, tears flowed down her eyes.

She was living well in Wu's manor until a servant told her that her father and second uncle were arrested. She fled with all the money in the manor and met several martial arts masters. Later, she offered money and seduced them that she would marry them as long as they could rescue her father. She never expected that more than a dozen martial arts masters would be willing to rescue her father. However, these ten people were too useless. Not only did they fail to rescue her father, but they also lost their lives. She hated why she didn't find a more reliable one. Now she was bullied by a trafficked concubine. She regretted not throwing Aunt Zhang into the pig cage directly.

In the teahouse box, Qiu Yingying, Qiu Yong and others came to the box where Yu Yunxin was. They looked at Yu Yunxin, who was sitting there weakly with a pale face, as if she had lost her former vitality.

Qiu Yingying saw this and walked over to Yu Yunxin, leaning on her shoulder and said, "Princess, Lord Yu is fine. He is very skilled in martial arts. Those people deserve to die. Don't be afraid."

"Xin'er, why did you come to the execution ground if you knew you couldn't smell blood?" Yu Tinghai walked in and asked.

"Your godfather Xin'er is also worried about you, so don't blame her." Yu Linshan wanted to speak for his sister.

"Okay, Xin'er, the matter here has been resolved. Can I go back with you?" Yu Tinghai said as he came to Yu Yunxin and took out a delicate little box with a fragrant sachet inside. "This is what your aunt Si made for you. Take it with you when you smell blood."

Yu Yunxin took the sachet and smelled it, and she felt much better. Yu Tinghai patted Yu Yunxin on the head and said with a smile: "Remember, don't come to the execution ground next time."

Yu Yunxin looked up at her majestic father and nodded.

"Okay, you are all guilty. Many people in Shangyang County know you. Let's go back to Wangshan County quickly!" Yu Tinghai said to Qiu Yong and Zhao Junshi and others while looking at Qiu Yong standing outside the box.

Soon everyone left Shangyang County. When Yu Tinghai walked to the entrance of Shangyang County, a group of people surrounded the gate of Shangyang County.

"Sir Yu, who will be the magistrate of Shangyang County in the future?" The leader was a young man wearing scholar's clothes, but there were three patches on the clothes.

Yu Tinghai got off the carriage road and said, "I believe you all understand the matter between Magistrate Ge and the Wu family. The Wu family used illegal means to seize your land. I will return it to you. All villagers in Shangyang County will be exempt from taxes for the next three years. I will temporarily replace the magistrate of Shangyang County. If there is anything important, you can go to the county government to beat the drum and submit a petition. I will come to Shangyang County every three days."

"That's great. We are relieved by your words, Magistrate Yu." Upon hearing this, the scholar bowed to Yu Tinghai and made way for him.

The people of Shangyang County all heard that the Wu family had fallen. All the people who had been harmed by the Wu family held a grand bonfire party in the county town, and danced to drive away ghosts around the bonfire on the execution platform.

The wife of Governor Yang found the injured Governor Yang in Shangyang Clinic. She saw that his left hand was wrapped in a layer of gauze. His face was already pale, and it became even paler after losing some blood. When Mrs. Yang saw this, she stepped forward and looked worried.

"Master, are you okay?"

When Governor Yang saw that it was his wife, he showed joy on his face and said, "Madam, I will not be in the way. I am sorry to have caused you to worry."

"Master, look at yourself. You have never been injured. Let me take you back to Nanling County quickly." Mrs. Yang said.

"It's getting late, let's go tomorrow! It's all thanks to Lord Yu that I was able to save my life this time." said the prefect Yang.

The couple supported each other and left the clinic, only to hear the people on the street rejoicing. Governor Yang was also infected by the people and brought his wife to the street to rejoice with the people.

Three days later, at the Taohua Manor wine workshop, Yu Yunxin looked at Qiu Yingying who was busy and asked, "How is Sister Yingying's gold dust?"

"Princess, I am a criminal now, so I will not consider love between men and women." Qiu Yingying said as she began to copy the barley and flip it over very skillfully.

"You are a guilty person. I can help you solve the problem. If you like Jin Chen, I can ask for you." Yu Yunxin whispered in Qiu Yingying's ear.

Upon hearing this, Qiu Yingying put down the shovel and said, "Princess, please don't interfere. What do you know at such a young age?" After that, she walked out of the wine workshop and sat by the stream, staring at it in a daze.

At this time, Jin Chen happened to come with a motorcade. Seeing Qiu Yingying in a daze, he asked Yu Yunxin: "What happened to Miss Qiu, the princess?"

"She misses you!" Yu Yunxin said and walked towards the workshop.

Upon hearing this, Jin Chen walked over to Qiu Yingying alone, only to hear Qiu Yingying skipping stones into the stream alone.

"Damn Jin Chen, you bad Jin Chen, you took your brothers away alone. Why didn't you tell me where you left?" Qiu Yingying cursed while throwing stones without paying attention to the person behind her.

"What's wrong! Second in command, are you resenting me?" Jin Chen hugged Qiu Yingying's waist directly from behind.

"How could I blame you? You are the general and you have your brothers. What am I?" Qiu Yingying pouted.

"You are an important person in my life. I promise you that I will marry you after I complete my mission." Jin Chen walked forward and hugged Qiu Yingying's waist.

"I will be eighteen after the New Year. How long do you want me to wait? One year, three years, or ten years?" Qiu Yingying asked angrily.

"Sorry, I'm not ready yet." Jin Chen was just in deep thought and didn't expect to be interrupted by a voice.

"Jin Chen, you are a free man. You don't have to bear this heavy shackle for the adults." Yang Yunsheng stood behind the two of them and said.

"Sir, why are you here?" Jin Chen put down Qiu Yingying's waist and turned around to ask.

"I didn't see anything. Getting married and having children are also important events in life. You can't delay your lifelong event just for the sake of repaying a favor. Otherwise, how can you let the deceased rest in peace?" Yang Yunsheng said.

"Sir, I understand. I know what to do." After saying this, Jin Chen picked up Qiu Yingying and carried her horizontally into a carriage.

"I didn't think that a master like you could make the servants so obedient." Yu Yunxin was standing far away and didn't hear their conversation. When she went out, she saw Jin Chen holding Qiu Yingying horizontally, getting into the carriage and coming to Yang Yunsheng.

"Princess, you are the same. You never treat servants as servants, but only as good brothers and sisters." Yang Yunsheng said as he looked at Yu Yunxin who was walking over and Lu Lian behind him.

When Lu Lian heard this, she thought to herself: "The master is the master, how could he treat his servants as his brothers and sisters?" She looked at Yu Yunxin.

"How about it? Did you know that your dolls are selling very well in the Jiangnan area? They are hard to come by." Yang Yunsheng said as he handed over another dozen banknotes.

"It's so fast, only a few days. I'm afraid they were sold out as soon as they arrived at the dock." Yu Yunxin asked after taking the banknote.

"Your stuff is so rare that it was bought by a group of businessmen directly after you got on the ship. By the way, Boss Pei wants to meet you this time and discuss business with you. Most of these dolls of yours were bought by him." Yang Yunsheng said.

"What business does Boss Pei do?" Yu Yunxin asked.

"The brothels and gambling houses in Jinling City. The Pei family has its roots in Jinling City, and they are considered the richest family in Jinling." Yang Yunsheng replied.

"These are things that cannot be shown on the table. My night market town will not allow prostitution, gambling, and drugs to harm us." Yu Yunxin said.

"Ha! Ha! Princess, you are still too young. You don't know the world. The brothel run by Boss Pei is different now. Do you know why some weak women end up in brothels?" Yang Yunsheng asked.

"Isn't that just forcing women of good character into prostitution?" Yu Yunxin replied without even thinking.

"Forcing women of good character into prostitution! The longevity of a brothel is not due to such coercion." Yang Yunsheng said with a smile.

"The talented men in Jinling like to go to brothels the most, but they are all owned by Boss Pei. The girls there are not all forced into prostitution. Some of them are daughters of officials who have committed crimes. The men in their families have embezzled money or committed crimes against their superiors, but what crime have the girls in their families committed that they have to end up in brothels? Some of them cannot afford to raise their children, so their parents sell them to brothels because they see they are good-looking. If the brothels do not accept these girls, they will probably be married off to rich men as concubines by their parents, and end up being sold to brothels or prostitutes, or starving to death on the streets." Yang Yunsheng talked at length.
