Let's Go to the Brothel Village!
The hostage operation had been a success. Though there was that rather unfortunate little accident at the very end where he'd ended up piercing Yuan Shu's rear entrance... honestly, she had it coming. As the saying went, if you dig a grave for someone else, you should dig two. If she had tried to take his ass, she should have been prepared for her own to get taken too. Of course, it hadn't been on purpose. He absolutely had not intentionally thrust into her rear!
Would Yuan Shu actually accept that explanation?
"Hii... Hiii... ♥"
Every time the carriage jolted, Yuan Shu twitched her hips and let out a moan. When Zhao Yun gently turned her face toward him, he saw that she had finally passed out. A virgin whose first time had been from behind rather than the front... Although she had threatened his rear first, the pitiful sight before him stirred an involuntary wave of sympathy.
For now, while she was unconscious, he should pull his cock out of her anus.
Pop!
With a sound like a cork being yanked from a tight hole, his member slid free, and Yuan Shu collapsed onto the carriage floor.
-Splurt!
"Ungot!"
Even while unconscious, her pathetic pussy climaxed again, squirting a small trickle of juices. Steam rose in wisps from both her front and back holes. The sight of her anus—brutally stretched by his massive cock and now gaping, twitching without closing—was truly heartbreaking.
Zhao Yun stared at the fluttering opening with pity before forcing his heavy body to move. He lifted Yuan Shu and laid her on the seat beside him. The poison was beginning to take hold; moving was becoming difficult. He needed to flee to safety before he collapsed... but where?
Safety? After kidnapping the youngest daughter of the Runan Yuan family in front of everyone, he was looking for a safe place? Even he had to laugh at the absurdity.
Clunk!
The carriage, which had been slowing gradually, came to a stop. The driver's voice drifted down from the roof.
"Um... My lord? We've reached the crossroads. Where... where shall I take you?"
The driver's trembling voice asked for their next destination. He looked terrified at having suddenly become an accomplice in the kidnapping of the youngest lady.
For now, Zhao Yun decided to step outside to see Yuan Shao off and think things through.
...Ah! He wasn't wearing pants. In his desperate escape, he wasn't even wearing shoes. Were there spare clothes somewhere in the carriage?
"Yes! Of course! Our Yuan family prepares spare clothes and shoes in every carriage for the dignity of our masters... Haah... Feel free to use them as you wish, my lord."
The driver had begun with pride, but ended with a deep sigh. What good was being a Yuan family driver when the kidnapper was sitting right inside the carriage...? Still, thanks to the servants' thorough preparation, Zhao Yun was soon neatly dressed in expensive clothes.
He stepped down from the carriage with his right hand clutching a bundle wrapped in fabric. The human-shaped lump squirmed faintly inside; it was clearly Yuan Shu. What a meticulous bastard. The driver, who had been hoping to bolt if Zhao Yun left the lady behind and stepped out alone, let out another sigh.
"Stay here for a moment, uncle. The rest of you, scatter and return to the Yuan family estate on your own! I have their lady in my hands, so you'd better cooperate properly. Understood?!"
"Yessir..."
The drivers answered without enthusiasm and set the carriages moving again from the crossroads, dispersing in every direction. With so many carriages scattering at once, tracking them would be far more difficult.
Now only two carriages remained: the one carrying Yuan Shao and the one with the grumbling driver waiting for him. Even in this situation, he should at least say goodbye to Yuan Shao. She was someone he had personally wanted to meet, and she had helped him during the day. He owed her his thanks.
"So you came out specifically to express your... gratitude?"
Yuan Shao stared at him and the bundle in his right hand—presumably Yuan Shu—with an expression that said is this real? To be exact, it was a mummy-like bundle of cloth. He had wrapped her in the spare clothes from the carriage to hide her current state, both for her sake and his own.
"You blocked the Huben Colonel for me during the day, didn't you? Thanks to you, I was able to escape safely."
"Safely? Hmm... In any case, it seems the Adjutant played a part in kidnapping my little sister. My heart feels so heavy."
Yuan Shao clicked her tongue and frowned theatrically, but she didn't look the least bit troubled. If anything, she seemed to be fighting back laughter.
"To think that after harassing her benefactor, she ended up getting kidnapped. Gonglu has shown quite the ridiculous sight as soon as she arrived in Luoyang. Well, this must be the karmic retribution for my foolish sister's own actions."
No matter how you looked at it, that was not the face of someone feeling sorry. She looked like she was dying of laughter. So the Yuan sisters' relationship was already bad even now. It wasn't his problem.
He needed to leave before it got any later.
"Anyway, I must find a safe place now."
"Hmm? You're not going to Mengde? There's no safer place than there right now. If you explain the situation, that woman will definitely hide you. Especially since she genuinely enjoys teasing Gonglu... If she saw Gonglu in this state... Puhahaha!!! Ah, excuse me. She would find it even more amusing if she saw her now."
Unable to hold back any longer, Yuan Shao burst into laughter and suggested he go to Cao Cao with her.
Of course Zhao Yun had considered returning to Cao Cao, but since things had turned out this way, he needed a place where he could have a proper, thorough conversation with Yuan Shu. He would undoubtedly end up recounting all her humiliating deeds, so having Cao Cao present would be bad. For the same reason, he couldn't go to Dong Zhuo either.
"No. To clear up the... misunderstanding, we need a quiet place where only the two of us can talk. It would be difficult at Lord Mengde's residence."
It wasn't truly a misunderstanding, but perhaps he could somehow gaslight that thick-headed Yuan Shu. For that, a place where the two of them could be alone was essential.
"I don't know what kind of 'misunderstanding' could cause such a commotion, but with the entire Yuan family currently searching for the Adjutant, is there truly a safe and quiet place?"
That was the problem. Where could he go? If he sent Yuan Shu back like this, she would surely plot something strange again. He wanted to end this terrible relationship here and now...
"It seems quite troublesome. ...If this foolish girl may be so bold as to offer advice, a place so shameful that the Yuan family could never even imagine might be safe. Didn't the Adjutant resort to the extreme of kidnapping with that very thought in mind? Why not make use of it again?"
She was right. The ones who would suffer if this blew up were the Yuan family. That was why he had threatened her with Yuan Shu's virginity in the first place. There were rumors that he had saved Yuan Shu's life, while Yuan Shu herself was notorious for her tyranny. No matter what he did, people would only say, "What did that bitch do to deserve such treatment from her own benefactor?"
Besides, the reputation of the Runan Yuan clan was no small thing. If it seemed too scandalous, they would hush it up and bury it. In other words, the more shameful it was for the Yuan family, the more advantageous it was for him.
"......Ah!"
"Have you thought of a good place?"
"I am once again indebted to the Colonel! Thank you!"
"No need. The Adjutant came up with it using his own head, so there's nothing to thank me for."
Just what kind of place was she thinking of? Zhao Yun silently bowed his head to Yuan Shao, who watched him with curious eyes, then returned to the carriage. It was not the sort of place one could easily say aloud to a woman.
He tossed the limp Yuan Shu beside him and sat down. A soft, plush sensation greeted him with a heavy thump. As expected of a wealthy family's carriage—it really was on another level. How could carriage seats feel like beds? His body was slowly going numb from the poison; it felt like he could fall asleep right there in the carriage.
...But then it would really be over. He had to stay alert. After escaping all the way here, he couldn't allow himself to be caught so pathetically.
"My lord, where shall I take you?"
The driver urged him for their destination at just the right moment. Yes, the man probably wanted to get rid of these human-shaped disasters as quickly as possible too. For the driver's sake, he should get there before he collapsed.
A place where a man and woman could stay together if they had money. A place with charming bedrooms and bathrooms where he could rest until the paralysis wore off. A place where it would be absolutely unacceptable for a woman to be rumored to have visited. A place where even Yuan Shu would find it impossible to run out with her bare face. A place where if the Yuan family arrived leading private soldiers, the entire scene would look incredibly strange. A place where even secret conversations would be hard for outsiders to overhear.
Let's go there.
"...Let's go to the brothel village!"
The Brothel Village!
The driver's face turned deathly pale. Yuan Shu, who had only just regained consciousness, also went white as a sheet at the sudden declaration.
W-where was he saying he was taking her?!
After arbitrarily toying with her mouth and ass, was he really planning to treat her like a common whore?
She squirmed desperately. She tried to move her body to escape, but the poison made her limbs twitch uselessly, like someone talking in their sleep.
Seeing this, Zhao Yun patted her gently, as if pitying her for having a nightmare.
"M-My lord! Did you really just say the brothel village?!"
"Uahahaht!!!"
From beyond the carriage came the faint sound of Yuan Shao's laughter. What? She was still there?
"You there, uncle! Do you want it spread around that the youngest lady is heading to the whore village?!"
"Ah, no..."
It was getting harder to even control his body. He didn't have much time left either.
"I'm not going because I want to! So hurry up... To the brothel village!"
