The Poisonous Consort, the Regent's Beloved

Chapter 188 Prefect



Chapter 188 Prefect

Her pupils suddenly contracted, and she slowed her pace considerably, seemingly unsure of what she was seeing, before fixing her gaze upon it once more.

The white bone lying in the center of the pot turned out to be the leg bone of a large animal.

In the corner, there were piles of eerie white bones and a bunch of clothing that didn't look like they belonged to the local style.

"vomit……"

Even Su Fuying, who had witnessed countless bloody scenes, couldn't help but feel a strong sense of physical discomfort upon seeing this scene, and an unbearable feeling of nausea welled up in her stomach.

She never imagined that the famine here would be so severe.

Why haven't we heard any related news in the capital?

It's so weird.

"I'm hungry, I want to eat."

"I'm hungry too, Mom. I want to eat meat."

More and more people gathered at the foot of the building, and some refugees even tried to climb up the eaves.

"Holy crap!" Su Fuying couldn't help but swear. She felt a chill run down her spine, and the scene before her reminded her of the apocalyptic scenarios she had once witnessed.

At this moment, she couldn't care less about anything else; she knew she had to leave this place as soon as possible.

However, as Su Fuying approached the city gate, he found that the number of refugees gathered there was increasing, even blocking the exit.

When they saw Su Fuying approaching, their faces lit up with excitement.

Su Fuying breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see Bai Hong along the way, but at the same time realized that it would be difficult to leave here safely today.

Suddenly, the refugees at his feet all stopped moving, craning their necks and sniffing the air with a look of fascination on their faces.

Su Fuying's nose twitched, and the aroma of rice mixed with the smell of meat filled the air.

Standing on high ground, she looked down into the city and followed the aroma to a charming courtyard. The smell of food was coming from there.

Seeing this, Su Fuying ran straight towards the courtyard.

"Quick! He got away!"

Suddenly, a sharp-eyed person noticed that Su Fuying had left and shouted loudly.

Upon hearing this, the crowd, which had calmed down, instantly erupted in excitement. Their gazes refocused on Su Fuying, and they rushed toward her.

However, when these refugees saw the place Su Fuying entered, their steps gradually slowed down, and finally they stopped moving forward completely.

Their eyes were filled with fear and resentment, but none of them dared to take another step forward.

Su Fuying wondered to herself, what exactly was this place? Why were these starving people so afraid of it? Even though they knew there might be food here, they would rather go hungry than go near it.

Driven by intense curiosity, Su Fuying did not knock on the door directly, but carefully climbed over the wall and quietly peeked inside.

In the spacious and tidy courtyard, a dozen maids carried various delicacies to the table like an assembly line, the steaming food emitting wisps of heat in the cold weather.

"Since you're here, why don't you come down and sit for a while?"

A sudden sound rang out, startling Su Fuying, who was wondering why she saw her master. She saw a middle-aged man walk out from under the eaves.

Her hair was greasy and stuck to her scalp, tied up in a small bun, revealing her broad forehead.

His eyebrows were sparse and short, and his eyes, the size of soybeans, gleamed with a greedy light.

He had a flat nose, thick lips, and was obese with a protruding belly, like a pregnant woman.

His arms and legs were thick and muscular, his clothes were stretched taut, and the jade belt around his waist was tightly bound to the fat on his abdomen.

This man must be the prefect here; you can tell at a glance he's not a good person.

However, after saying that, the man did not make any further moves.

A fake smile played on his lips, a sly glint in his eyes, as if he were observing Su Fuying's reaction. He stood there, arms crossed, waiting for Su Fuying's response.

Su Fuying was secretly on guard, but on the surface she remained calm.

She narrowed her eyes slightly, carefully examining the middle-aged man.

His clothes were lavish, yet somewhat vulgar; his expression was confident, yet it also revealed an unfathomable sinister intent.

Su Fuying decided to refrain from taking action for the time being and observe the situation first.

She lay quietly on the wall, her eyes fixed on what was below.

Shortly after the middle-aged man sat down, a group of dancers filed in, their figures graceful and their movements light and graceful.

Immediately afterwards, several musicians carrying instruments followed into the courtyard, and melodious music began to play.

In a short while, the courtyard was filled with cheerful melodies and graceful dance moves.

Several women dressed in thin gauze danced gracefully in the center of the courtyard. The cold wind blew up their soft gauze skirts, revealing glimpses of their snow-white thighs, which caught the eye of the fat man.

At this moment, the two women on the far right carried food to the obese man and brought it to his mouth. Only then did he come to his senses and reluctantly opened his mouth.

However, his lecherous hands wandered and roughly groped the woman's waist on the right, taking full advantage of her. The woman giggled and scolded, "Sir, how annoying!"

……

"Sigh~"

Seeing this, Su Fuying couldn't help but gasp, secretly glad that she hadn't eaten too much for dinner, otherwise she might have already vomited.

She couldn't bear to look at it anymore; the scene made her extremely uncomfortable.

Moreover, the weather was cold, and after observing for a long time, she only saw these people laughing and flirting, without any useful information whatsoever.

She had no interest in the scene and had no desire to stay and witness them spending the night together.

As the sky gradually darkened, Su Fuying began to make plans in her mind.

She thought it wouldn't be difficult to slip away under the cover of night, but she still needed to be careful and not let her guard down.

After all, this is someone else's territory, and the consequences would be unimaginable if they were discovered.

"Sir, why don't you come out and have a chat?"
