Chapter 11 (2/2)

Seeing Lin Shan retorting her words, Du Ming Yue became blind with rage, but suddenly her mind caught up to the words Lin Shan said, “What did you say? You, you went to the Leaning Vermillion House?”

“Dear Princess, I originally did not want to come, but the Third Prince forcefully pulled me along. It was impossible for me to say no. Ah, I am so tired now, I need to go have a nap, no need to say goodbye.” Lin Shan then turned around and giggled evilly, “Du Jing, you dared to compete with me for the Golden Sabre, go die!”

Of course, Du Ming Yue’s face immediately changed: “Du Jing, very good! You dare to help him play around! You’re definitely not going to live!”

At that moment, the servants behind Ming Yue looked at Lin Shan’s departing figure, and their eyes showed signs of wors.h.i.+p: “Prince Consort is so amazing, even the Princess does not dare to go against him! Our Hero!”

From then on, rumours of the Princess being scared of the Prince Consort spreaded, and Lin Shan instantly became a bright and famous figure. Her attractiveness drastically increased overnight, and she became an idol to all palace maids and eunuch and guards in the Royal Palace. She will soon end up in the top 10 in the 108 Most Handsome Men the Capital list, her fame known far and wide.

Of course, this was a later story, right now Lin Shan still doesn’t know about how powerful her control was over the Princess. She was currently sitting next to a table, cracking walnuts while thinking about the events this morning.

Strange, isn’t it just a measly intruder? He had already been caught, even if the Emperor sent out punishments, at worst it would just be reprimanding their carelessness… Wait! Lin Shan’s heart suddenly jumped.

Lian Feng is… a royal guard, right? Yes!

And he is also the leader of the royal guards, right? Yes!

Last night, he was not at the royal palace, right? Yup!

Doesn’t that mean that he has failed his duties? Indeed!

So he will be heavily punished, right? Bingo Bingo Bingo!

My mother! Lin Shan slammed the tabled filled with walnut sh.e.l.ls. No wonder this morning Lian Feng’s composure was one of “Piercing wind, freezing river of Yi. The hero fords, and he never returns!”(1). It took me half a day to think of the possibility of him getting punished.

It’s all over! They say that being near kings are like being near tigers, this guy had provoked the emperor’s anger, he will definitely lose his head, but if that’s so… Lin Shan suddenly felt that this was an unbearable. What’s more, last night he was even smacked on the head by me with a stick, it seems like I am partially at fault here.

Lin Shan couldn’t decide the more she thought about it. She paced around her room back and forth, finally she left to see the current situation.

At that moment, Little Lu burst inside the room and quickly said: “Prince Consort, you are finally back! Last night was scared me witless! I heard that the intruder was very formidable! He was tall! And Big! And his head was ma.s.sive! He has three swords! He even knew how to fly!”

Are you trying to say he’s Superman? Lin Shan cringed, but she asked, “That’s right, I heard that the intruder have been caught?

“That’s right.” Little Lu nodded, “I heard that it took all the great experts in the palace combined to capture him. That intruder was merciless, each slash of his blade result in a fallen head. Dozens of guards have lost their lives.”

Lin Shan was stunned: “And the Emperor…”

“Luckily last night the Emperor was not sleeping inside the Royal Bedroom, so he was not harmed. That’s right, what’s more! Last night after the intruder have been discovered, there was not a shadow of the Royal Guard Chief Lian Feng. The Emperor seems to be extremely angry, this morning he have already summoned Lian Feng for judgement.”

Lin Shan panicked in heart and became fiddly.

“How… how is he?”

“Of course he was punished! Even though the Emperor have always been partial to him, but this time he disappeared at the worst time. I heard that his Royal Highness’s visage was extremely furious, he already sent out the punishment of twenty lashes. Don’t you look down on those lashes, those are especially made, they have many painful thorns weaved together inside them, … Ah, Prince Consort! You, where are you going?”

Lin Shan had already long rushed out of the door, her figure fleeting.
