Chapter 361 - The Performance (3) (1/2)

The newcomer, who had just skillfully jumped into the stage, stood in front of those maidservants and their young miss with a protective gesture. It seemed like people were making a wrong conclusion. The man didn't plan to hurt anyone --- he was purely a performer of this drama.

The people, who had just turned vigilance, relaxed their own guard a little bit. However, because of this, Yao Ling was able to perceive how many people that were trying to protect the Han Emperor once something happened --- it was a lot!

Fortunately, killing the Han Emperor wasn't being included inside their plan --- or else, they wouldn't survive the night. No matter how powerful they were, they couldn't handle so many people with only them.

However, when there was no ȧssassination incident, the Han Emperor felt disappointed. He had been wanting to do something about Feng Yong Rui ah~! If that man really attacked him, he could do something to shift the blame to Feng Yong Rui, after all, this man was a part of the performance that Feng Yong Rui had presented for the banquet --- it would be justified for him to kill Feng Yong Rui, but he could only swallow his dissatisfaction for now.

The Emperor looked at the Empress Dowager when he saw how interested the latter was with the performance, he could only sigh and didn't dare to ruin his mother's happiness. After all, even if he was lacking in other things, he was truly a filial child.

The Han Emperor sighed once again and quickly looked at the performance in front of him more seriously, wondering why his mother was so entranced by this performance --- it was only about a silly love story ah~! He admitted that he was interested with the two women who performed in front of him, but those two were involved with Feng Yong Rui, so he became wary. It could be said that the wicked concubine really knew the Han Emperor's personality very well!

That was the reason that she wanted to use if the Han Emperor dared to covet those two beauties. Even though she was sick at the Han Emperor's personality, her life had been tied to him and she could only fight for herself to survive. No matter how ŀėwd he was, he was her husband --- she could only submit to him and fight with the rest of the women inside his harem.

Back to the performance which attracted the audience's eyes...

The newcomer attacked the young man, who was standing at in front of the women with a gentle laugh and flirty eyes, fiercely. The newcomer was wearing black outfits and mask which covered up his whole body --- people could only see his cold and sharp eyes. It was Lin Jian's character and his usual playful nature was gone --- he became a valiant shadow guard which always protected Xiao Fang.

Yes, he was attacking Yao Ying because he perceived that he was a danger to his young miss --- not only that, but he could also see that the man was coveting his young miss and he wouldn't let that happen! His moves turned more vicious, but the young man didn't lose to the hidden guard.

When the Empress Dowager saw this story, her heart was beating wildly. A memory from her past that she had almost forgotten was rushing into her mind once more. She didn't realize that she had cried. It was almost like her real-life story in the past.

'Ah San!' She cried inside her mind. 'Oh... how I miss you,' The Empress Dowager thought to herself.

When she was a young girl and hadn't been chosen as the Emperor's woman, she had a valiant and yet, kind hidden guard whose body posture looked just like Lin Jian's. She did know that they weren't the same person, but in her current eyes, they looked so alike.
