”This servant is called Han Yuomei, while this servant's sister is called Han Wan. We are servants from the palace of the empress.”
I saw tattoo marks on their necks, too little to notice but I know they must be a member of an organization. I walk ahead and went to the living room, they followed behind me like they were floating on the air. I knew the difference between people who practice higher level of martial arts in comparison with ordinary people. I purposely poured myself a cup of tea and intentionally let the jade glass fall on the floor. But their hands moved instantly and not a drop of tea was spilled on any surface, be it on my clothes or on the floor. I conclude, that prince is not an ordinary man. He has servants who martial art practitioners and shadow guards with excellent fighting abilities. But why was he not crowned as the crown prince?
I slowly sat at one of the chairs in the room.
”Why did your master sent you?”
”His highness wanted the princess to be safe wherever she goes and to ensure that his highness assigned shadow guards to people close to the princess.” So does he mean it's not for my safety but for the princess? He should have assigned them to her instead. I shook my head and smiled.
”I see. Have you captured Lin Tsu? I suppose she is also involved with the assassination. I'd like to pay her a visit”
”We have your ladyship, she is already locked in the dungeons”
”Come and accompany me there”
I brought my sword with me and set to the dungeons. The rotten smell of dried blood and old flesh greeted us. Lin Tsu was chained down. I smiled sweetly as I remember what I always do in the dungeons of the 21st century. Oh how I missed the feeling of killing people. My hand itches to peel someone's skin and let them suffer the torture.
