Chapter 390 - The Feud between Princess Royal Yunruo and Princess Shuanglan (2/2)
“There is no need to be afraid of me. I naturally will like the subordinates of my lady, and will not treat them harshly.” Holding on to Mo Xuetong, Feng Yuran raised the corner of his lips in an undecipherable smile.
A chilly tingle spread from his feet to his body. Looking at the flamboyant purple in front of him, Shopkeeper Xing struggled to form a sentence, and could only feel cold sweat from his back. He followed King Jin before and even being the most doted prince, King Jin was nowhere as flamboyant as the man in front of him. In comparing charisma, even King Jin paled in comparison to the man before him.
Shopkeeper Xing believed that any sense of disagreement would mean the death of him from that prince. That was the prince’s last warning!
If he dared to betray the lady, the prince would use his own cruel ways to kill him and all his men.
The bloodthirsty feel from him made him seem to come from h.e.l.l. It would only be possible if he had the blood of numerous men in his hands.
This was really the most useless and extravagant King Xuan!
For the first time, Shopkeeper Xing felt that Yan Yue’s plan might not be suitable for everyone. He must discuss the matter further, and not to sacrifice the large goal for something minor.
“Yes, yes!” He only dared to agree and evade Feng Yuran’s gaze. This handsome man had placed immense pressure on him. As a secret guard amidst the common people, he lived as a small shopkeeper for many years and became more street-wise. Facing the dominance of Feng Yuran, he dared not say anything more.
“Shopkeeper Xing, do use the original price for those goods. Even though it might be more expensive, they are worth this price. However, if they increase prices again, there is no need to entertain them further. There are plenty of other suppliers outside for us to choose from.” Mo Xuetong smiled slightly as if she were really talking about goods related to the embroideries. Her voice was gentle and sweet!
“Yes, yes!” Shopkeeper Xing sweated as he lowered his head, grinding his teeth.
This couple seemed harmless, but he felt a chill run down his spine as if he were being stared at by a vicious wolf.
No, he still had to go back and discuss the matter with Yan Yue!
Inside the large bedroom, the flying curtains fell gently. Pearl beads draped gently down. He wore white-colored clothing that was as pure as snow. His handsome face was elegant and ethereal, calm and graceful. He sat behind his table and his hand holding the doc.u.ments was jade white, s.h.i.+ning brightly like a beautiful piece of jade!
The wind blew up a corner of the curtain. The servants standing in the garden could only see a corner of the white clothing, and yet they were mesmerized by the man, with them staring like drunkards until the curtain fell again. They then sighed, wis.h.i.+ng for the wind to blow again.
That was their master, the elegant and gentle Crown Prince that’s akin to a fairy!
Such an elegant man should only exist in myths. How would that not make them mesmerized!
Lin Yu came in hastily and saw such a scene. He saw the blus.h.i.+ng faces of the four servants outside and frowned before entering. Those servants were gifted by the Empress, and the Crown Prince left them here after accepting the gift.
“Your Royal Highness, Lin Yu wishes to see you.” Lin Yu walked to the front of the door and asked respectfully.
“Come in!” The gentle and leisure voice came from within the room. His voice was like an angel’s, with a slight magnetism that was akin to a gentle spring breeze.
Outside, the few servants threw their heated glances over. One moved as if she wanted to come over, but was pulled back by another servant who reacted.
On the other side, Lin Yu entered the door amidst the jealous stares of the servants. He closed the door and Bai Yihao sat in front of the large wide table inside. His handsome face wore a gentle smile as he placed down the doc.u.ments he was reading. A natural majestic aura emerged from him.
As he was no longer a hostage by the Qin Kingdom, he needed not to conceal his sharp edges.
“Your Highness, do you need me to take care of those people in your garden?” Lin Yu was unhappy about the servants outside. His Highness had many things to take care of and sometimes needed to avoid others. It was inconvenient for him to be monitored directly by these people.
“Since the Empress sent them there, I should let them feel rest a.s.sured.” Bai Yihao smiled as he said gently. He should follow what the Empress wanted since she was suspicious of him. Even though they were here, what they could see and what they wanted to see was all according to his orders.
Seeing that the Crown Prince had made up his mind, Lin Yu didn’t press on further about the issue. He took out a secret report and pa.s.sed it over. “Your Highness, a secret report from the Qin Kingdom. The matter did not succeed!”
He was talking about the kidnap of Mo Xuetong. Slowly examining Bai Yihao’s calm demeanor, he moved his mouth but did not know how to continue.
As the bodyguard of Bai Yihao, he naturally knew what he was thinking about. It was a good thing for his cold-hearted master to fall in love. However, the timing was bad and the choice was even worse!
At this time, the Empress and the First Prince had the alliance to suppress him in court and in the palace with numerous devious plans. Anyway, the Empress had the status as the stepmother of His Highness, which was well-hidden due to the Emperor’s orders. Even though no one knew this matter, the two were unrelated to each other and had no care and concern akin to that of a parent and a child.
The Empress used numerous plans she could think of in succession to make His Highness fall out of power!
His Highness should focus on dealing with the crisis, and should not care about the useless girl in the Qin Kingdom. Furthermore, that girl was the consort of Feng Yuran.
