Wu Lan said disdainfully, "She's just a lowly woman. It's her honor to be able to contribute to our great cause. Vicious? You, a murderer with blood on your hands, are calling this young envoy vile? What? Do you think this young envoy is vile? Do you think the young patriarch is vile? Or do you think the old patriarch is vile?"
The man knelt on the ground and hit his mouth, indicating that he could not speak.
"Young Master, please don't argue with me. I'm not good at talking and will only make you angry. I'll slap myself. When this woman gives birth, I'll make sure she dies and deal with her cleanly so she doesn't cause any trouble for you, Young Master."
Wu Lan nodded and instructed, "If the princess gives birth to twins, everyone will be happy. This woman will die in childbirth, and her child will naturally be reborn with her. If we need her, remember to rescue her son before she dies in childbirth. I will find a chance to give the baby to the princess. Do you understand? Do you want me to repeat it again?"
The man quickly shook his head to indicate that he understood.
"Don't worry, young master. I will keep this woman safe until you can take her to Caiwei Palace."
Suddenly, Wu Lan signaled the man not to speak. She quickly jumped out of the window and looked around, but found nothing unusual.
"Young Master, what's wrong?"
"There seemed to be some movement outside just now. It's strange, but there was no one there when I came out."
The man quickly turned around and pointed at the black cat jumping on the red tiles and said, "Young Master, it must have been this black cat that made the noise just now."
Wu Lan looked at the black cat that had disappeared from her sight and muttered, "You scared me! What a disgusting black cat."
She patted her sleeves, straightened her appearance, and finally gave instructions: "Alright, I'm leaving first. The princess and I still have to find a way to get her into Caiwei Palace. That damn queen has been keeping a close eye on Caiwei Palace lately. You go and comfort that woman and don't let her leave this abandoned palace. If anything goes wrong, you can go see the witch god."
"Yes, my subordinate will go right away."
After seeing Wu Lan off, the man went into the back of the abandoned palace. After making sure that there was no one around, he found a passage through the half-human-high grass, opened the cellar, and went downstairs along the stairs.
There was a disheveled woman inside, who was resting and panting. She was startled when she saw the man coming down.
The air in the cellar was thin and there was only a dim light on the wall.
The man asked curiously, "What's wrong with you?"
The woman whispered, "No, it's okay. It's just too stuffy down there. I have trouble breathing. Can you help me up and rest for a while?"
"No, it's too dangerous up there!"
The man directly rejected the woman's request, perhaps realizing that his tone was too harsh, and explained:
"I'm afraid that if you get discovered, you'll be mistaken for a spy and beaten to death. You don't know that the Emperor of Daliang is extremely cruel and ruthless, the Empress is also a ruthless woman, and the Imperial Concubine is even more treacherous. If they find you, they will definitely not let you go. Even if our princess intercedes for you, I'm afraid they won't be able to save you."
"Ah? Okay, fine. Thank you for your consideration. My Lord, could you please pour me a glass of water? I don't have the energy to do that."
"Okay, wait a minute."
The man walked up to her and gave her some water.
The woman lay on his chest, drinking water in small sips. When the man relaxed, she thrust the sharp hairpin into his neck.
"How dare you plot against me!"
The man practiced martial arts and quickly turned his head. The hairpin pierced the side of his neck, but not deeply.
The woman was pushed to the ground, bleeding from her lower body, and crying out in pain.
"I've been so good to you, yet you're repaying my kindness with hatred! Bitch!"
