That night, Li Yuxiang received the news that City Lord Dugu Hong was furious when he heard that General Hei Tian had been killed by Gao Jin. He immediately announced that Gao Jin had assassinated an official of the imperial court and would be executed three days later!
When Gao Jin heard that he would be beheaded in three days, his heart turned cold.
After coming to this world, he hadn't even done anything earth-shattering yet, and he had to face the tragic fate of having his body and head separated. He really couldn't accept it!
Am I going to die like a coward before I can even become the God of Gamblers?
After he was thrown into the prison, he was initially depressed, but he slowly got over it and continued to practice his flying card technique in the prison.
Gao Jin made up his mind. Before he died, he must practice this flying card skill taught by his master, the God of Gambling! If he died, he might even become the God of Gamblers in the netherworld!
The only thing he was worried about was Zhu 'er, that silly girl. After she learned of his death, who knew how sad she would be? Li Yuxiang should be able to take good care of her!
Gao Jin found joy in the midst of suffering. He took out the cards at his waist and played with them carefully.
The next morning, Li Yuxiang hurried to the City Lord's Mansion.
After getting the permission from the guards at the door, Li Yuxiang went to the living room and saw that Dugu Hong was already waiting there. After Li Yuxiang waited for Dugu Hong to give her a seat, the two of them exchanged pleasantries. Li Yuxiang slowly led the topic to Gao Jin.
"City Lord, one of my subordinates committed a crime the day before yesterday. Yuxiang specially came to pay her respects today because she wanted to ask you to show mercy and be lenient.”Li Yuxiang glanced at Dugu Hong, blinked her charming eyes, and smiled.
She forced a smile, but she hated him to death.
Dugu Hong was already very old. His hair was already white, and his face was covered in chicken skin. However, he was still lustful. He had been staring at Li Yuxiang since she entered the door. His eyes were as greedy as a hungry wolf, and he wanted nothing more than to swallow the prey in front of him.
To be honest, Dugu Hong had been drooling over Li Yuxiang's beauty in the past. However, Li Yuxiang had always politely rejected him.
Although she, Li Yuxiang, had a bad reputation and was a loose woman, she was playing with men. She was taking the initiative! Therefore, in order to be her guest, one had to meet two conditions. One was youth, and the other was handsomeness.
Men loved beauties, and women loved handsome men!
With Li Yuxiang's vast network of friends, there was no need for her to give herself up to this old man, Dugu Hong.
Her reputation as a gambling mistress was not just for show!
Dugu Hong fiercely glanced at Li Yuxiang's plump chest and swallowed his saliva. He picked up the teacup and took a sip pretentiously before saying in a hoarse voice,""I wonder who Yuxiang is talking about?"
Yuxiang? Humph! Why are you calling me so intimately? Disgusting! Li Yuxiang unconsciously furrowed her brows, then smiled sweetly and said,"This person was escorted to the City Lord's Mansion by the guards of General Hei Tian's Mansion yesterday afternoon. His name is Gao Jin!”
In fact, yesterday afternoon, when he learned from the guards of Hei Tian that this criminal named Gao Jin was inextricably linked to Li Yuxiang, he had already planned everything.
Dugu Hong regained his senses and smacked his lips. He put on a troubled look and said in surprise,""Gao Jin? Could it be the murderer who killed General Hei Tian? These felons despised the authority of the imperial court and dared to barge into the General's Estate to assassinate him. They were guilty of heinous crimes. Not dying was not enough to appease the anger of the people. This City Lord was upright and upright. How could he violate the imperial court's laws for the sake of such a vicious person?”
Dugu Hong's words were full of righteousness. If it wasn't for his pair of eyes that were constantly wandering around Li Yuxiang's body, revealing his true nature, people would have thought that he was a good official who would seek justice for the people without caring about personal feelings!
However, how could Li Yuxiang not know what kind of character this old ghost had? She immediately pretended to casually pull up the light gauze on her chest, making the white trench appear and disappear. She swept her eyes with flirtatious eyes and did a flirtatious thing. She smiled and said,"The City Lord is naturally an upright official, but the law is nothing more than human relations. With the City Lord's prestige, who would dare to disobey whatever he does in the Four Red Cities?”
Dugu Hong's body trembled. Li Yuxiang's teasing had made him feel like he was about to burst into flames, and his bones had turned soft. He no longer tried to hide anything. He stood up and ran to Li Yuxiang. His large hand directly touched the back of her soft hand as he hurriedly said,""If I help you, what benefits can you give me?”
Li Yuxiang was disgusted and wanted to shake off the chicken claws in her hand. However, she thought of Gao Jin and could only endure it. She had to pretend to be happy and reached out to stroke Dugu Hong's chest. Her voice was coy and seemed to be moaning,"Then what does the City Lord want?"
Dugu Hong's breathing quickened as he hugged Li Yuxiang's slender waist and snorted,"" I won't beat around the bush in front of a famous person like you. I've long admired you. After this matter is done, I only need a night of pleasure…"
Li Yuxiang gritted her teeth and said,"Alright!" Deal! City Lord, please release her as soon as possible. Yuxiang will naturally satisfy you tonight!”
"Good! Hahahaha! Madam was indeed straightforward! Men, pass on my order to release Gao Jin from the prison in the city!”Dugu Hong stretched out his wrinkled hand and fiercely grabbed Li Yuxiang's buttocks as he laughed.
The soldiers outside the door went to receive the order.
Li Yuxiang finally heaved a sigh of relief. She twisted her delicate body and cleverly broke free from Dugu Hong's embrace. She took a few steps back, tidied up her clothes, and bowed."Then Yuxiang will go back and bathe first. She will come to serve Milord at night!”
"Alright!" Dugu Hong nodded. Furen, go back and prepare well!"
Li Yuxiang let out a long sigh of relief after leaving the City Lord's Mansion.
To be honest, Li Yuxiang wouldn't have been so disgusted by serving Dugu Hong in the past. After all, although that old ghost had a wretched appearance, he had great power. He could be said to be the local emperor of the Four Red Cities. There was no harm in accompanying him for a night for the sake of benefits.
However, now that she had Gao Jin, Li Yuxiang realized that she had someone to rely on. She was a little tired of this kind of pure intercourse without any feelings between men and women. Moreover, she still had a worry in her heart that she did not say. She was really afraid that Gao Jin would know that she was still as dissolute as before and did not know how to love herself. What would he think of her?
Li Yuxiang really cared too much about Gao Jin's opinion of her.
Li Yuxiang sighed, feeling a little upset. She wanted to go directly to the prison in the city to pick up Gao Jin, but she found that she was a little afraid to see him now.
Forget it, let his Zhu 'er go pick him up, what am I, Li Yuxiang? A slut who could have sex with anyone? Li Yuxiang smiled bitterly and got into the carriage. She said coldly,"Go back!"
The coachman's name was Ma Liu, Li Yuxiang's exclusive coachman. In fact, he was also the one who had a conflict with Gao Jin.
Ma Liu agreed and drove back to Yuxiang Restaurant. Before entering, Li Yuxiang turned around and instructed Ma Liu,""You wait here first. In a while, I'll bring Qiu Tao to the prison in the city!”
Ma Liu responded respectfully and parked the carriage by the roadside.
Returning to her room, Li Yuxiang ordered Qiu Tao to bring Zhu 'er to the prison in the city to fetch Gao Jin, while she lay down on the bed and slept sullenly.
Qiu Tao saw that Madam was in a bad mood and didn't know what had happened. She could only receive the order to look for Zhu 'er in the east wing room. The two of them took a carriage to the prison in the city.
According to Li Yuxiang's instructions, Qiu Tao directly sent Gao Jin and Zhu 'er back to the Hongfu Inn where they were staying. She also said that Madam pitied them for their hard work, so there was no need for Gao Jin to serve them today.
Gao Jin knew that Li Yuxiang must have put in a lot of effort to escape this time, because the only person he knew in the Red Four City who had this ability was Madam Ji.
Gao Jin was naturally very grateful to her and made up his mind to be a true friend with her in the future!
"Qiu Tao, go back and tell Furen that I will definitely visit her early tomorrow!”
Just as Qiu Tao got into the carriage and was about to leave, Gao Jin shouted at the carriage. His tone was very sincere.
Qiu Tao sat in the car, frowning. She felt that Madam was not happy when she came back. There must be something she did not tell her.
