The Slender Waist-Chapter 277 - 192 Nearly Desperate_3

"Left Guard, someone from Chunmeng Hall has come, claiming that the lady has gone missing."

Zuo Zhong jolted awake, "Who sent the message?"

"It was Guard Ye, people sent by Guard Ye."

The urgency in the person’s voice could be heard even through the door panel.

Zuo Zhong didn’t bother with anything else, quickly got up to dress, took up his sword, and walked out, "Explain clearly, what happened?"

The person who came was Lin Zhuo from the Imperial Guard Camp, originally arranged by Pei Jue to be by Feng Yun’s side. With this incident occurring, he was very anxious and roughly explained the situation with Feng Yun’s disappearance.

"It was near River Embankment Street; only Ge Guang was accompanying the lady at that time. We found the carriage in an alleyway, but the lady was nowhere to be seen..."

Lin Zhuo hesitated for a moment, then added:

"We suspect it was the work of Liufeng Garden."

Zuo Zhong stood stunned.

The ones coming and going in Liufeng Garden were the Imperial Cavalry from Central Capital.

Song Shou’an thought he had been discreet, but just as Wei Zheng had said, a potter cannot refine a national treasure, he was not fit for major tasks, and he had been marked by the Beiyong Army’s scouts on his very first day in Xinzhou.

"Tonight, Diao Yu and I were on duty. We were supposed to follow the lady, but she said she wanted to take a stroll in the city and refused our company, so we trailed behind from a distance. On River Embankment Street, we saw Song Shou’an block her way, but he quickly let the lady leave, so we did not intervene. Who would have thought that this would happen?"

Zuo Zhong listened to his narration.

"So, you’re saying that the Song rascal has not given up his evil intentions, and after the conflict, he contrived a plan to take the lady away..."

"What should we do?" Lin Zhuo was somewhat anxious, "Left Guard, please make a decision quickly..."

Zuo Zhong said, "Ajue, you must ride at once to Pingyang and notify the Great General. I will take the Imperial Guard Camp to Liufeng Garden right away..."

"But there’s no order from the General..."

They were very clear about who the Imperial Cavalry was.

Offending these hawks and dogs would be fine if they found the person, but if not, it would surely bring disaster upon them.

Zuo Zhong patted his shoulder, "If something goes wrong, I’ll bear the responsibility alone and will seek punishment from the General myself. There’s no time to delay, you leave immediately."

Lin Zhuo saluted, "Understood. Take care."

Song Shou’an was a little too unrestrained in his revelries tonight.

Having been pressed upon for so long in Jiade Hall by Li Sangruo, not only was his male dignity trampled upon, he could never be truly himself. Who could have a decent experience performing sexual acts under the guise of an impostor?

He did not want to be treated as a man of lowly status.

Right now, he felt like a prisoner who had been locked up for a long time suddenly set free. The delight, let alone the psychological satisfaction brought about by the courtesan on her knees before him attending to his every whim, was beyond words.

The skills of the courtesan from the brothel were not something that a woman from the deep palace like Li Sangruo could compare to. After several bouts, Song Shou’an had nearly forgotten even his own name...

"Beautiful lady... good Qingqing..."

"Hiss... Shi’er Niang, come and try this master’s skills..."

"Do you submit... do you submit..."

He was Li Sang’s tool for sexual gratification; every time Li Sang indulged with him, she would call him General, Ajue, Mr. Pei, making him utterly loathe it inside. Yet at this moment, Feng Yun’s face involuntarily came to his mind, and he couldn’t help but become the very thing he despised the most.

"Shi’er Niang... good Qingqing, how beautifully you are made..."

"Ah..."

When Zuo Zhong heard the sounds of the man and woman in pleasure and Song Shou’an’s brazen and crazed shouting outside the window, his blood ran backward, fear nearly pushing him to despair...

He did not dare to imagine what terrible consequences would ensue if Song Shou’an had taken advantage of Feng Yun.

The skies of the Great Jin Dynasty were probably about to collapse; what with the peace talks with Xinzhou and the friendly relations with Qi, the Great General might just march on Central Capital by tomorrow...
