Chapter 10 (2/2)
The junior eunuch Sun Fu next to Du Jing quickly said, “One sneeze means somebody misses you, Your Highness.”
–
Lian Feng’s mouth twitch, but he didn’t reply.
Lin Shan continued: “I knew him inviting us outside was definitely not a good thing, what a failure of a prince, his mother, even my Golden Sabre… Ah, I mean, is he looking down on you? What a pig… no no no! Even comparing him to pigs is shaming the pigs!”
–
“Atchoo!” Du Jing sneezed once more, “Little Fu Zi, are you sure n.o.body is cursing this Prince?”
“Your Highness, sneezing twice means somebody misses a lot.”
“AChoo!”
“Three times means somebody misses you endlessly.”
“Achoo, Achoo, Achoo!!”
Sun Fu wiped his sweat: “Your Highness, have you caught a cold?”
Du Jing: “…”
–
Just like that, they came from the Leaning Vermillion House to the Royal Palace, Lin Shan continued to go on and on cursing Du Jing along the way, her voice not letting up any anger. Poor Lian Feng, on the way he has to sit there and listen to it all, his mental strength was completely depleted, his face harden in pain. But our friend Lin Shan didn’t pay attention to any of that.
“Prince Consort.”
“Shamelessness in itself is not scary, but what’s scary is his shamelessness combined with his greed, the shameless people like him are really invincible..”
“Prince Consort!” Lian Feng raised his voice.
“Ah?” Lin Shan jolted, her face nervous: “What? Did something happen?”
Lian Feng looked at her then said, “Prince Consort, we have returned to the Palace.”
“Oh? So quick!” Only now did Lin Shan woke up, she awkwardly smiled, “Ha ha, I was too busy cursing him, I didn’t pay attention… Lian Guardian, next time we get the chance we should both curse him together, that kind of person deserves it, if you don’t curse him he won’t feel relaxed… Ah!” As the horse pulled over, she was busy talking smack about Du Jing and accidentally fell off.
Luckily Lian Feng was quick with hands and fast with his eyes, he quickly reached out to hold her.
Lin Shan only saw a flash as her body flew through the air before she was abruptly stopped. Opening her eyes, she saw the sunlight reflecting behind Lian Feng. Her eyes became deep with emotion, the silver mask reflected dazzling lights as a strange feeling crossed Lin Shan’s heart, but this was quickly snuffed out by a guard who ran up to them.
The guard’s face was pale, he hurriedly said: “Lian Chief, why are you back only now! Big trouble has happened! The Palace was infiltrated by a.s.sa.s.sins last night!”
