After being exiled, the Crown Princess rose to the top by pitting the villain

Both of them frowned, now they were very sure that this must be the place where they traded bodies.

In just a few breaths, a group of girls with slim figures and outstanding looks in white gauze skirts came in and stopped at the entrance of the rockery. Leading them was a brothel owner who was dressed in gorgeous clothes.

The madam was a little different from the one the two had met before. This person was younger, about thirty years old. She deliberately swayed her waist when she walked, fanned herself with one hand, and had a pair of seductive eyes. As soon as she appeared, the guards breathed much heavier.

Lin Zili didn't know what was wrong, and subconsciously glanced at Yun Zhiyu beside him, wanting to see his reaction.

Yun Zhiyu looked extremely disgusted, his lips tightly pursed and his brows furrowed so tightly that he could pinch a fly to death. Lin Zili couldn't even hear his breathing. She observed carefully and found that this guy was holding his breath.

Oh, yes, Yun Zhiyu couldn't stand the smell of those perfumed powders. The smell of this old procuress was so strong that it was undoubtedly a torture for him.

The guards’ eyes almost popped out of their heads, but the madam didn’t even look at them. She even snorted disdainfully as she passed by.

Oh, it seems that she has served the powerful and wealthy for too long and no longer cares about anything else. The previous madam was not like this.

Looking at those girls again, they had indeed received special instruction, and from a distance they did have the temperament of ladies, with graceful steps and each and every move having a certain charm.

Lin Zili once heard that some pampered young men just liked the tone of this kind of seemingly noble lady, so some brothels would deliberately train their own courtesans to be talented women who are proficient in everything from playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even sell their virginity for a high price to attract those people to compete for bids.

This kind of place could not be completely eliminated even in the previous life, let alone in ancient times. Lin Zili understood it, but it was not good for you to do it in secret.

What? Stealing creates more atmosphere?

Some of the girls exuded a faint aura of death, their eyes were filled with despair and pain, and faint bruises on their wrists could be faintly seen, and it was obvious that this was not the first time.

Lin Zili also heard the madam comforting the girls: "Be smart later, don't put on a dead face, or you will be the ones who suffer in the end, right?

Isn't it good to lie down and make money and be loved by others? You are of humble origins, and you can only marry a farmer or a poor man. How can you compare with these nobles?

If you serve them well, you will soon become a phoenix! Don't be ignorant. If I were born a decade later, I would serve those nobles with you. You can just laugh at this good thing!"

Good thing?

Since I envy you so much, I will fulfill your wish and let you serve eight or ten noble people, so that you can achieve the peak of your life!

Seeing that these girls ignored her, the madam was so angry that she wanted to strangle them. However, she endured it again and again in front of everyone, and continued to say to the leading woman with gritted teeth: "Remember your mission tonight. If you refuse to do it obediently, I will let your sister come tomorrow!"

The woman's expression finally changed. She instantly became extremely terrified and looked pleading.

"Please, I'll obey you and do it."

Hearing this, Lin Zili and Yun Zhiyu looked at each other secretly.

It seems that the prince is indeed using these girls to consolidate his power!

Seeing that the girl had finally become obedient, the madam raised her eyebrows proudly, then walked up to the other girls.

"Say something."

"Hello, Mom."

The girls spoke in unison, with fake smiles on their faces, empty eyes, and their hands crossed in front of their chests as they bowed, their movements extremely consistent.

The madam seemed very satisfied.

"How obedient! If you had refused to come by yourselves before, this would have been the result."

The two could tell at a glance that they were poisoned.

This mind-controlling poison is similar to the one Lin Zili gave to the guards at the corner gate. She herself also improved it based on an ancient recipe. The poison in these girls is more primitive, so their expressions are very unnatural, and the effect is shorter.

Being controlled and brought to purgatory on earth, when he woke up, he encountered scums lying on him. Lin Zili could never imagine this kind of despair and pain.

These girls originally went there with infinite vision for the future, but these scumbags took advantage of this to destroy their dreams and lives, turning them into tools for the powerful to trade and vent their anger. How hateful!

How could Lin Zili not understand that even if the prince wanted to make money and gain power, he had other means to do so. As the crown prince, how could the staff around him think of such a despicable means?

The poor girl's experience made her even more angry at the behavior of the prince and the Li family. She quickly lowered her head to prevent others from noticing her emotions.

A pair of rough hands patted her soothingly. It was Yun Zhiyu.

When Lin Zili raised her eyes, she saw his worried look. She shook her head slightly to indicate that she was fine.

There are still many things to do tonight, and she will definitely keep herself calm.

The night watchman's voice came from far away, it was already midnight.

"Let's go, follow."

The girls all followed the madam and walked into the unfathomable tunnel.

After the last girl's voice disappeared, the patrolling guard leader closed the rockery. The hazy and lewd expression on his face made Lin Zili want to slap him a few times!

"Boss, are there a lot of people here today? There are twice as many girls going down as yesterday."

"The one who came today is a high-ranking official from the Ministry of Personnel in the capital. The Ministry of Personnel, hey, those are high-ranking officials who hold real power. You should serve him well. If you want to arrange someone for him in the future... you have to be careful."

The Ministry of Personnel? Was it the Crown Prince or the Li family who wanted to plant someone in the court?

In addition to the imperial examination system, the Ruo State still had a recommendation system. The Ministry of Personnel had the function of selecting officials. If one wanted to appoint someone, one had to find an official from the Ministry of Personnel.

Isn’t this selling official positions and titles?

Lin Zili wanted to ask how long this buying of official positions had been going on, but seeing Yun Zhiyu's calm expression, she knew the answer.

Yun Zhiyu had sincerely advised the emperor at first, right? Unfortunately, the dog emperor was only concerned with scheming against the Prince of Jin's Mansion and didn't take the matter to heart at all.

"But this high-ranking official's family can't afford to eat so many girls, the rest..."

The guard who was speaking secretly took out a bag of money and stuffed it into the hands of the chief guard. The meaning was self-evident.

The head guard weighed the money bag, very satisfied, and replied with a lewd smile: "Okay, I'll talk to Mother Xu later, you pick the one you like and bring it to the room. This is the only business tonight, the brothers are guarding here, you can go and have fun directly."

"Thank you, boss!"

Not to mention how obscene the expressions of the two people who were talking were, the other guards also looked extremely hungry and swallowed their saliva frantically. They also searched their purses and counted the silver, hoping to have a bite of meat while they were free tonight.

Give them to the able!

You want to be happy, right?

I’ll send you off to live happily!
