Into the night

The eaves bells jingle in the wind...

Yu Jinzhi tightly grasped the silk in her hand, her face tense, her fingers trembling slightly because of nervousness, the carriage was speeding at night. But she always felt that something seemed to be peeping at her in the dark, and her back was even colder.

Suddenly, the carriage stopped. Yu Jinzhi's heart tightened. She didn't dare to make a sound, and her breath turned into wisps of white smoke in the night wind.

A slight groan was heard from outside, and the scattered light in Yu Jinzhi's eyes disappeared little by little.

Perhaps it was because the night was too quiet, she seemed to hear footsteps coming from outside the carriage, approaching her direction little by little.

Suddenly, a pair of bony hands gently lifted the gauze curtain of the carriage.

The cold wind from outside blew in, bringing with it bursts of bone-piercing chills that seemed to penetrate deep into the bone marrow, causing Yu Jinzhi to tremble all over and shiver...

"Ha" a low-pressure sneer sounded, containing an endless amount of coldness.

Yu Jinzhi leaned back out of fear, and the atmosphere in the already narrow carriage became more and more suffocating. Yu Jinzhi felt as if her heart was being tightly grasped by a pair of big hands, making it impossible for her to breathe.

"I didn't know you were capable of this, Yu Jinzhi, how dare you? Huh?" Xie Yuxiu's eyes were like deep pools, full of aggression.

Xie Yuxiu, the current king of Jing State, has been suppressing court officials with iron-blooded means since he ascended the throne, and is known for his tyranny.

Yu Jinzhi is the daughter of General Sheng An. Because her father was favored by the late emperor, she was deeply favored by the emperor and was canonized as Princess Jiayu. She had been engaged to the late crown prince since she was a child. However, the late crown prince was deposed and imprisoned because he colluded with the traitors to launch a coup.

After Xie Yuxiu ascended the throne, he took Yu Jinzhi directly into the palace and later imprisoned her in Jiayu Palace. However, after two years in the palace, she had no name or status...

Today is a palace banquet, and Yu Jinzhi took the opportunity to try to escape from the palace, but unfortunately...

Xie Yuxiu looked at Yu Jinzhi, whose eyes were filled with fear. His eyes became stern, and the frost in his eyes was so cold that it seemed to solidify into a solid object.

He grabbed the hand of the little woman in front of him. Yu Jinzhi screamed and was roughly pulled off the carriage the next moment.

Her wrist was pinched so hard that it hurt. Yu Jinzhi got off the carriage and saw that the coachman who had just driven the horse had now fallen on the cold ground.

Seeing this, Yu Jinzhi's face turned pale and bloodless.

"Let me go, let me go..." Yu Jinzhi's struggle completely angered Xie Yuxiu.

He held the person tightly in his arms, his eyes sinister: "You want to escape? Yu Jinzhi, why can't you learn your lesson? Don't you want to escape? Okay, I will take you out today!"

After saying this, Xie Yuxiu ignored Yu Jinzhi's resistance and directly led the man onto the horse.

The Pegasus was running at a very fast speed, and Yu Jinzhi was held in his arms in front of him, and the wind was blowing on her face, causing it to hurt.

Her heart turned cold and her whole body trembled. She knew... she had touched his bottom line again.

Yu Jinzhi felt cold all over. She didn't know where Xie Yuxiu was going to take her. She only felt that after the horse left the city gate, the surrounding scenery became more and more desolate.

Finally, the horse stopped.

It was pitch black all around, with only the desolate moon still emitting a cold light.

Xie Yuxiu pulled the man down from the horse, and Yu Jinzhi fell into his arms. The next moment, he pressed her to the ground, with fear filling her heart.

The grass here was very deep. Xie Yuxiu protected the back of her head with one hand and placed the other hand on her lower back: "Don't you like running? Is it so exciting outside? In that case, I will satisfy you today!"

"Let me go, don't...don't!" Yu Jinzhi shouted in fear.

Seeing her struggling, Xie Yuxiu grabbed her hands and twisted them behind her back.

In the darkness, his angular face looked even more fierce and chilling!

He gently curled his index finger and lifted her chin slightly, and saw the fear in the woman's eyes clearly. Her red eyes made the fear more and more clear.

"A mean person is never qualified to beg for mercy. If you are afraid, you shouldn't test my patience with you!"

"I think you are very clear about the consequences of your resistance. Aren't the previous lessons enough?" His voice became softer and softer, but to Yu Jinzhi's ears it sounded like a demon returning from hell.

He once again treated Yu Jinzhi in the way that she feared the most...

Yu Jinzhi seemed to have given up struggling. After all, it was useless, wasn't it?

……

Tears escaped from her eyes and hid in her hair. Yu Jinzhi closed her eyes. This punishment was nothing new...

She was really afraid of the dark, but tonight she lay limp on the grass in the wilderness for a long time, staring blankly at the cold moon...

The rain stopped and the wind died down, and the sweat was pouring down

Yu Jinzhi was held in his arms. Xie Yuxiu took his cloak and wrapped it around her, then leaned close to her ear.

"Yu Jinzhi, without my permission, you will always be my slave. If you dare to escape again, don't blame me for building a cage for you so you can never get out... Don't forget that the people you care about are all in my hands."

Yu Jinzhi shivered in his arms, and he couldn't tell whether it was because of the cold or fear. Xie Yuxiu gently stroked her back, very gently, but each stroke was accompanied by her slight tremor.

He picked her up from the grass, and a carriage had been parked not far away. Yu Jinzhi was carried into the carriage by him. There was a charcoal fire in the carriage, which was warm, but even so, she still couldn't feel any warmth while sitting in Xie Yuxiu's arms.

Xie Yuxiu took out a hot water bottle from somewhere and stuffed it directly into her arms.

The carriage slowly began to move forward. The two were silent, and Xie Yuxiu even held her all the way.

But Yu Jinzhi felt only despair and helplessness in her heart. Her escape attempt failed again and she was now stepping back into the cage that had imprisoned her for many years.
