Chapter 158 Being threatened
After lunch, Rong Yu said, "Junior brother, from now on you will learn horse riding from me in the morning and archery in the afternoon. You will be responsible for cooking lunch and dinner."
Qianhuan was dumbfounded when she heard this. Doesn't that mean she will have to stay in Fan's house all day? There are still many things in the teahouse that she needs to handle personally.
She said quickly, "Brother, I have adopted some orphans. Wenjie has to go teach them to read and write in the afternoon. I have to send him there. After lunch, can I rest for an hour and a half?"
Rong Yu did not answer, Qian Huan said flatteringly: "One hour, okay? Senior Brother, I beg you."
"Half an hour."
Qianhuan pursed her lips and reluctantly agreed, "Okay, then half an hour."
Half an hour is one hour in modern times. A round trip from Fan's house to the teahouse by carriage takes about two incense sticks of time. So she has more than two quarters of an hour every day to arrange things in the teahouse, which is barely enough.
So she quickly took Wenjie to the teahouse. Wenjie's house was in the backyard, and Tudou was arranged to stay with him and take care of him.
Qianhuan cleared out a small room at the very edge of the second floor of the teahouse as her boudoir, and Yinhua helped her make the bed.
Qianhuan distributed small wooden boxes to the children and also gave each of them a bamboo stick as thick as a little finger.
When Wenjie was teaching the children to write, the children either used their fingers or bamboo sticks to write in the sand. After use, they put the wooden lid on. It was very convenient and practical, and the children liked it very much.
Afterwards, Qianhuan took the time to go to the backyard to teach the actors how to rehearse. When the time was almost up, she quickly asked Ji Feng to drive her back to the Fan Mansion in a carriage to learn archery.
Although Yin Hua was the maid she bought for herself, Qian Huan did not keep her with her now. The main reason was that she had a lot of secrets, and she was not sure whether Yin Hua was reliable. She had to observe her for a while before she knew whether to let her be her personal maid.
In the evening, Qianhuan made delicious dishes such as roujiamo and mutton soup with steamed buns, and Mr. Fan and Rongyu were very satisfied with the meals.
In fact, Rong Yu deliberately let Qianhuan follow him to learn for a whole day, because he really didn't want to eat the food prepared by the cook in the Fan Mansion in the evening.
After a tiring day, Qianhuan returned to the teahouse to rest. She called Yinhua to massage her shoulders and legs.
At night, she sent Yinhua to bed. When everyone in the backyard was almost asleep, Qianhuan asked Ji Feng to drive her to Xunfang Pavilion in a carriage.
Several days passed like this, and today was Qianhuan's last day dancing in Xunfang Pavilion.
"Mother Yang, after I finish dancing today, I won't come to dance anymore."
"Fei Yan, can you dance for a few more days? How about mommy giving you double your wages?"
Mother Yang really didn't want Qianhuan to leave like this. With her performances these days, the business in the building was obviously packed every day.
"Mom, I'm busy with family affairs and I really can't spare the time to perform. Please forgive me."
"Well, although I really don't want you to leave, I can't force you to stay."
After Qianhuan finished dancing in the lobby and Mother Yang paid her, she went back to her usual room upstairs to change clothes.
She took off her long dance dress and was about to reach out to put on her men's clothes when she suddenly heard the sound of a door opening behind her.
Qianhuan was so frightened that her hands trembled and she couldn't hold the clothes firmly. She turned around suddenly and saw a man in black tights breaking into her room. After the bad guy came in, he quickly locked the door.
Qianhuan was wearing a white embroidered bellyband and knee-length pants at this time. The ancient bellyband was tied with two straps at the back, and a large area of skin on the back was exposed. Although Qianhuan was a modern person, she couldn't help but hug her body tightly and screamed in fear.
Unexpectedly, the man in black flashed behind her and covered her mouth with his hand from behind. Qianhuan's scream was drowned out by his hand.
The villain hugged her from behind, put a dagger against her waist and threatened her fiercely: "Don't make a sound, or I will kill you."
The villain's voice was deep and threatening, which made people shudder.
Upon hearing this, Qianhuan immediately nodded obediently, indicating to the bad guy that he would not shout.
Usually she would hide hidden weapons in her sleeves, but it was inconvenient to wear the sleeve arrows on her wrists when dancing, so she took them off and put them in her clothes. At this time, she had no weapons for self-defense and could only cooperate with the bad guys.
The two men were in a stalemate like this, the woman's smooth jade-like back skin completely leaning against the villain's chest. The villain did not have any romantic thoughts at this time, he just concentrated and listened to the movement outside.
Suddenly, there was a commotion outside the door, and someone shouted, "Search every room and find the bad guy."
Qianhuan immediately realized that the man in her room was the villain they were looking for, and she became secretly anxious.
When the villain saw a large group of search soldiers coming outside, he suddenly pulled the dagger at his waist and the dagger instantly pierced into Qianhuan's delicate skin.
Qianhuan felt a dull pain in her waist. She could even clearly feel the blood flowing down her waist to her pants. She couldn't help but groan.
The villain knew that he had lost his strength, but there was no trace of shame on his face, and he still covered Qianhuan's mouth tightly.
Qianhuan could only turn her head desperately and signal him to let go with pleading eyes. The villain understood the meaning in her eyes, and perhaps felt that she was not a threat, so he finally let go.
Qianhuan then saw the man in front of her clearly. His whole face looked as if carved by a knife. It was hard and cold. He was mighty, powerful, and his eyes were sharp. He was tall and mighty. Judging from his appearance, he was definitely a handsome man. However, there was a cold light flashing in his eyes, like a leopard ready to hunt.
Qianhuan intuitively felt that this man was very dangerous. If she dared to cry for help, he would kill her without hesitation.
She could only quickly whisper, "Master, don't worry, I won't scream. Those people outside will soon search this room. If you don't want to be discovered, you'd better flee somewhere else. Otherwise, when they find you hiding here, even if you hold me hostage, they won't care about the life of a brothel girl."
"It's too late to escape. If they find me, you'll have to die with me. It's good to have someone to accompany you on the road to the underworld." The man said this with a cruel look on his face. As he spoke, the hand holding the dagger lost its strength again, and Qianhuan felt another pain in her waist.
Qianhuan had a thousand fucks running through her mind at this moment. She had finally traveled through time and space to this era and lived again, and she didn't want to die with a man she didn't even know.
Seeing the footsteps outside the door getting closer and closer, Qianhuan could only think of a way to help him escape, otherwise she would not survive either.
She quickly said to the male master: "Young Master, please hide in the bed quickly."
The man was still motionless. At this time, the officers and soldiers had already searched outside the door. They banged on the door and shouted, "Open the door quickly. The court is arresting the criminal."
Qianhuan immediately pushed the man down on the bed, then lowered the gauze curtain. She turned over and rode on the man, then pulled the quilt to cover their bodies, and then she began to strip off the man's shirt.
The man was frightened by her behavior. He grabbed her clothes tightly and growled, "What do you want to do?"
"If you don't want to die, take off your clothes quickly and shake the bed. Hurry up..."
After realizing what the woman in front of him wanted to do, the man began to obediently cooperate with Qianhuan's actions.
He allowed Qianhuan to roughly strip off his shirt, and then began to shake the bed vigorously.
The soldiers outside the door banged on the door vigorously. Seeing that the people inside were slow to open the door, the leading captain said decisively: "Hurry up and break the door open."
Just as the group of people outside broke in, Qianhuan began to scream loudly, pretending to moan.
The people who were about to come in to search could not help but stop in their tracks when they heard the soul-stirring cries and the creaking sound of the bed shaking. Their faces turned red and they could not help but look at each other.
The leading captain signaled everyone else to go out, and then he walked into the house alone.
Qianhuan noticed someone approaching the bed, and immediately screamed more and more fiercely, "Ah..."
"Officials are investigating the case and searching for criminals..."
Qianhuan immediately interrupted the leader's words in a charming voice, "Sir, I am in high spirits at the moment. I only have guests here, no prisoners. I beg you to be kind and not disturb my interest, ah..."
"Sorry, we have an order from above that every room must be searched carefully."
"If you are not afraid of polluting your eyes, please go into the gauze tent and take a look. I really don't want to ruin my interest..."
At the moment when the leading officer lifted the gauze curtain, Qianhuan immediately hugged the black-clad man's head with both hands, trying her best to block the view of outsiders. In order to appear more realistic, she could only hold the man's face and tilt her head to pretend to kiss him.
The man under him was holding a dagger tightly, ready to fight at any time, but the woman on him suddenly moved closer to his cheek. Although she didn't really kiss him, the close distance made the man stunned for a moment.
When the official lifted the gauze curtain and saw such an erotic scene, his blood suddenly boiled over his body. He quickly lowered the gauze curtain and retreated.
"Excuse me, please continue."
