Chapter 226 He has no weaknesses, he only exploits others' weaknesses to achieve what he wants
The carriage was moving slowly, but the snow outside was getting heavier. Su Yingxue sat in the carriage, feeling a little uneasy.
She couldn't understand what kind of urgent matter Chu Xingchen had to take someone like her, who was afraid of the cold, out in such weather. The carriage wasn't moving very fast in the slippery snow; it was moving at a leisurely pace. At this speed, it was unknown how long it would take to arrive.
Until they entered the city gate of the capital of Dasheng, before the guards checked, Chu Xingchen personally put a veil on her face and personally asked someone to hand over the sign of the Princess's Palace.
When the soldiers guarding the city saw the royal token, they did not dare to act rashly. They did not even get on the car to check and let the two men go.
On the streets of Dasheng Kyoto, merchants in front of the main streets would clear the snow daily to maintain their business. So Su Yingxue secretly lifted the curtains of her carriage and looked at the streets being cleared of snow. As the snow fell outside, the cold air blew into the carriage through the gaps in the curtains, and she couldn't help but stare at the bustling streets, a little dazed.
How long has it been since she saw the world outside the villa?
Although it is snowing today, the streets are decorated with lights and most of the stalls along the street have umbrellas above to block the snow, and they sell things related to the New Year.
There are people writing Spring Festival couplets, selling red paper and lanterns, selling blessing lanterns, selling dried fruits, cakes and snacks, and stalls selling candied haws, noodles and wontons.
The stalls and shops were bustling with activity. The servants and maids in the shops were calling out for beautiful rouge and powder. The teahouses and restaurants were doing a booming business with crowds of people, making it a very lively place.
"Sister," Chu Xingchen's voice was hoarse, but his eyes were full of concern. "Sister, it's cold outside. Close the window. We'll be there soon."
Chu Xingchen's eyes were cold, but there was a hint of warmth hidden deep within.
He was waiting, waiting for that opportunity. He also wanted to know, if his sister found out that the man she loved was meeting another woman, would it make her give up the inappropriate thoughts?
After staring at the man for a long time, he saw the secret report handed to him this morning and felt that this might be an opportunity sent to him by God.
Such a beautiful view and good show, why not bring my sister to watch it together?
When someone wanted to set up a stage to perform a play, he naturally did not forget to add fuel to the fire. Even though the weather was so bad, he could not hide the joy in his heart.
Chu Xingchen saw Su Yingxue in front of him, timid and hesitant, full of curiosity, with a calm expression, and he didn't know what she was thinking. He was only worried about her weak constitution and her fear of cold. He was afraid that she would catch a cold again after the old toxins in her body were cleared.
"Okay." Su Yingxue lowered the curtain after hearing this. This main street was so prosperous that Su Yingxue felt a little uneasy. Would they go to Phoenix Tower again?
For some reason, her face turned red whenever she thought of Phoenix Tower. She was unconscious after getting drunk that day, but the next day, she realized that her body was covered with red marks, she was sore all over, and she realized how wild he was.
Su Yingxue was a little unhappy.
As expected, the carriage stopped at Phoenix Tower. Chu Xingchen got off first. He raised his hand to hold the hand of the person behind him. Su Yingxue was a little nervous.
Although she was wearing a veil, her face was flushed. She put her hand on his and took his hand as they stepped out of the carriage.
But this time, although they reached the top floor, they did not go to the private room that gave them a view of the Phoenix Tower, but sat in a private room behind a secret door on the other side.
Su Yingxue never thought that a mere Phoenix Tower would have such a secret.
The window screens in the corridor are specially made so that you can only see outside from the inside, but you cannot see inside from the outside.
So the first time she followed the servant up the wooden stairs of the Phoenix Tower and out to the corridor on the top floor, she looked down and saw everything clearly.
But today she did not take the wooden ladder. When she went up the corridor, she found that she could not see the scenery upstairs from the corridor on the lower floor.
The corridor only goes up to the third floor. If you need to go higher, you need to be led by a servant, enter another wooden ladder, and go up alone.
With such a complex design, this Phoenix Building was indeed not simple. And the private room they were in was actually facing the private room next door.
The first time she went to the large private room next door, she was attracted by the huge mirror inside. The magnificent and huge private room, coupled with this huge mirror, made the entire private room look even larger visually.
But today, when she stood on the other side, she discovered that the mirror held a secret. It turned out that she could clearly see everything in the other private room, while the other private room, looking at the mirror, saw it as just a mirror.
No wonder Chu Xingchen brought her to this secret private room. No wonder it turned out to be such a mysterious and complex existence.
"Sister, sit down and have a cup of tea."
Chu Xingchen sat in the private room. There was a maid in yellow serving tea and snacks to the two of them.
The tea and snacks here, as well as the meals that follow, will be delivered directly to the private room from the serving station.
"Chu Xingchen, why did you bring me here?"
Su Yingxue was speechless. Was the private room next door occupied by other guests tonight? Then what were they doing here? To spy on others' privacy?
Is this something that Her Royal Highness the Princess can do? If this gets out, it will be really embarrassing.
Su Yingxue was a little depressed.
"Sister, please sit down. We are just having a simple meal. There is no need to be so repulsive." Chu Xingchen said calmly. He knew in his heart that the good show he had arranged was about to begin. He didn't know whether his sister would be so sad that she would burst into tears when she saw that man having a secret meeting with another woman.
But at this moment, he didn't want to point it out.
Some truths have to be seen with one's own eyes, only then will her sister give up.
The meal was brought up quickly, and the maid in yellow served the dishes to the two of them one by one. After serving the dishes, she left through a wooden staircase leading directly to a room on the other side, leaving Chu Xingchen and Su Yingxue sitting alone on both sides of the elegant seats.
Su Yingxue felt a bit annoyed, and she had no intention of enjoying her meal. She stood up and walked to the other side of the private room. Su Yingxue noticed that the mirror on the other side faced Phoenix Terrace. When she reached the mirror, she realized that everything in Phoenix Terrace was clearly visible, including the densely packed street scene below.
"Chu Xingchen, is Phoenix Tower also yours?"
Su Yingxue hadn't understood it before, but now she understood. Phoenix Terrace was the favorite place for banquets for the dignitaries of Dasheng Kyoto. Most of the powerful and influential people would book the private rooms on the top floor.
Then, Chu Xingchen's private room was for gathering intelligence. The maids and servants in the building were probably all potential spies. Sure enough, Chu Xingchen could really surprise her.
"If it is, so what? If it is not, so what?" Chu Xingchen did not intend to answer her question. After all, he had the ability to hold her in his hands.
The answer is not important to him.
Because Su Yingxue, just like that day in Phoenix Tower, she could not escape his suppression. Just like that day in the other courtyard, she could not resist his will.
Because everyone in this world has weaknesses.
If you have a weak spot, you will be taken advantage of.
Apart from himself, he has no weaknesses. He only exploits the weaknesses of others to achieve the results he wants.
