Your Highness Yh Chapter 74 (1/2)

The horse carriage was gone. The horse driver was gone. Most importantly, their things were all gone. There goes her land, her ox, her house, and her dream of opening a prost.i.tution home! Lin Shan wanted to die.

Seeing the devastated look on Lin Shan’s face, the weak Xiao Lu tried to comfort her on the side: “Master… don’t be upset… I always carry our treasure with me…he didn’t take it away…”

What? Lin Shan’s eyes lit up. Treasure? Xiao Lu took out a heavy sack from behind her b.u.t.t. She looked extremely proud: “Master, look….”

Woah! It’s so heavy! Lin Shan’s hope started to flare up. Such a heavy sack, there must be at least a hundred taels! I guess my prost.i.tution home is still happening! And my ox plus land. Woo hoo!

Lin Shan was filled with excitement as she opened the sack. But the moment she saw what was inside, her face froze.

Xiao Lu’s “treasure” was wrapped very securely in the sack. It was the Heaven stone that the Emperor had bestowed her. On it were the words “Peace and Prosperity”. The four golden words were s.h.i.+ning at her.

At that moment, Lin Shan had an urge to crash her head against the stone. Xiao Lu, oh Xiao Lu! Why did you hide this s.h.i.+tty rock so well? You are playing me, aren’t you? Lin Shan was about to explode on Xiao Lu, but when she looked up, Xiao Lu had already lost consciousness. Funny enough, she had a triumph smile on her face.

Lin Shan: “…..”

Lin Shan went from being the newly rich, to a person with only a s.h.i.+tty rock. In addition, she had a sick patient to take care of. What a tragedy. Just when Lin Shan felt like her life couldn’t get any worse, Xiao Lu started having a fever.

Currently, Lin Shan didn’t have time to regret. As she felt Xiao Lu’s forehead getting hotter and hotter, she decided she had no choice but to return back to the Capital. Finding Lian Feng will have to wait.

Just like that, they returned after leaving for half a day. The difference was, they left wealthy and returned empty.

They were fortunate enough to have found an ox cart that happened to be going back to the Capital. Hence, under the rhythm of the ox’s snorting, Lin Shan once again returned back to the place she had planned to leave behind forever.

By now, Xiao Lu’s fever was so high that her life might be at risk. But Lin Shan had no money on her. She had to make a difficult choice.

Either she returns to the Palace or go find her parents.

But neither choices were good for her. If she returns to the Palace, she might never have the chance to escape again. If she goes back home, Du Hao might create trouble for her family.

Lin Shan was very conflicted. At this time, the semi conscious Xiao Lu suddenly pulled her sleeve: “Master… I… I’m f-fine…let’s not return…. w-we still need to find Lian Superior….” Xiao Lu had no strength left in her voice. Lin Shan’s eyes immediately watered.

This servant had been with her from the moment she had arrived into this world. Although Xiao Lu could be impulsive at times, she was definitely super loyal towards her. To be honest, she didn’t treat Xiao Lu that great. At least, in comparison, Xiao Lu treated her much better.

Thinking of this, Lin Shan felt a layer of remorse. She had already lost Lian Feng. She didn’t want to lose Xiao Lu as well.

Lin Shan grabbed onto Xiao Lu’s hand and firmly stated: “No. We are returning to the Palace. I’m going to make sure you’re cured!”

Hearing this, Xiao Lu panicked: “Master. Y-you can’t go back! If you go back… you won’t be able to come back out!” Since Xiao Lu was anxious, the volume of her voice increased, “Actually… I have a relative in the Capital…”

Relative? Lin Shan’s eyes lit up: “What relative?”

Xiao Lu thought about it for awhile: “Based on the family hierarchy…it should be….my second uncle from my mother’s side’s son’s aunt….”
