Chapter 8 (1/2)
Lian Feng’s wine was definitely drugged, but the person who did it was not Bai Lian, but Du Jing.
Why did Du Jing do such a thing? Simple, for the smile of a beauty. And this beauty, is the very same person standing in the room, Bai Lian.
This was a long story.
Bai Lian was the number one girl of the Leaning Vermillion House, people who want to even catch a glimpse of her must line up all the way from the front of the street. But Bai Lian very rarely took any guests, even Du Jing was no exception.
Du Jing was promiscuous and indulgent, and the entire capital’s young, old, men and women all knew about this matter, but his reputation was still very good. This is partly because of his position as the Prince, but there was another crucial reason, that was he really understood a woman’s heart. Even if it was a girl he has thrown away, they still spoke good things about him. Plainly put, this person is extremely calculating.
Du Jing really liked Bai Lian, seeing that she was always depressed, after doing some asking around, he found out the reason. It turns out that before she sold herself, Bai Lian was a daughter of a merchant. Once she followed her father outside to do some business negotiations, they ran into some bandits. Not only were they after the gold, they were coveting Bai Lian due to her beauty.
At that moment, Lian Feng who had left the palace to complete a mission saw this situation and rescued them. From then on, Bai Lian quietly resolved to use her body to repay their saviour.
Later on, Bai Lien’s family business began to fail and they were left with no money. Their debtors sold her into this brothel, but even so, she still has not given up her idea of repaying Lian Feng.
After finding out her deepest wish, in order to gain her smile, Du Jing thought of a ploy. Du Jing was definitely a person who only appears once in a thousand years. He would go out of his way to help the woman he likes to sleep with a different man. No wonder so many ladies would sacrifice themselves for him.
That’s how they ended up with the current farce.
“What did you put inside the wine?”
When Lin Shan heard what Lian Feng has said, her heart was jumping. This sort of amazing drama, I was even lucky enough to witness! So exciting, so thrilling! (=_=)
But in that moment, Du Jing suddenly summoned a bunch of servants, his eyes like a tiger staring at its prey.
“Take his sabre away!” After Du Jing gave out his order, they all headed towards Lian Feng.
Sabre? Lin Shan were startled, her blood began to boil: Humph! You are a Prince of an entire country, just because of a Golden Sabre, you dare to poison your own Royal Guard’s Chief?
Are you even human? Is the Golden Sabre’s value that great?
Of course, Lin Shan had totally misunderstood the whole situation.
At that moment the drug has successfully spread throughout Lian Feng’s body. His legs became weak, his entire body was burning, even when he tried to gather his inner strength, nothing came.
He knew that he had made a big mistake, his hands gripping the Golden Sabre on his hips and faced Du Jing’s lackeys head on.
As the sabre was about to leave its sheath, starting a river of blood, a person jumped out right in front of him.
“Everybody, stop your hands!”
Hearing this earth shattering shout, everybody was startled. Only when they gathered had their wits did they recognise the Prince Consort.
Song Luo was currently standing in front of Lian Feng, s.h.i.+elding him while wearing an extremely angry expression.
