C147 (1/2)
The Xumi Temple army tensed up, their hands tightly grasping the scimitars at their ribs, ready to strike at any time. He did not want to be captured alive by the Great Moon Sect. If he was forced into a corner, he would only die.
He knew very well that if he was captured alive by the Great Moon Sect and offered to one person, he would rather die than live.
”Your Highness, please feel more wronged and hide under my bed for the time being.”
The Xumi Army stared at Yue Chanjuan. They didn't know if she was really doing this because of the promise she had made to him, or because of some conspiracy.
Yue Chanjuan smiled, ”If I intend to let you be captured and killed, before you can break into my roof and break into my house, you can get Jin Xiao Feng to send people to stop you.”
The Xumi Army slightly heaved a sigh of relief and awkwardly said, ”I'm not suspecting the princess, but the servants by her side are not the servants the princess brought from the great karma with her. They're the servants of the Huns.”
”They are my servants. Prince, there is no need to worry. Wu Lanzhu, you cannot divulge my secrets here. Otherwise, don't blame me for being heartless.”
Yue Chanjuan's tone turned cold. Wu Lanzhu and the rest hurriedly bowed, ”Your servant dares not. I will obey your highness' orders.”
”Your Royal Highness, if you let Jin Xiao Feng wait for too long, I'm afraid he will be suspicious.”
The Sumeru army had no choice but to rise and scan the room in search of a better place to hide.
”If the prince were to hide somewhere else, I'm afraid that it would not be safe. Only my bed and the men from the Da Yue branch will not check.”
The Xumi Army was even more embarrassed, knowing that Yue Chanjuan's words were true. When he arrived in front of Yue Chanjuan's bed, he glanced back at the maids and they coldly stared at him, especially the Wu sisters.
Although the Xumi Army was the Xumi King, they were Tuoba Fei's servants, and now they were Yue Chan Juan's servants. There was no need to show any respect towards the Xumi King. This servant only belongs to her own master. If the Sumeru army and Great Moon Branch were on good terms, then they would maintain their etiquette. Now that they were enemies, there was no need to be courteous.
”My lord, I have wronged you. This is also the last thing I will do for you.”
The Sumeru soldier gave Yue Chanjuan a deep look, bent down, and slipped under the bed.
Yue Chanjuan glanced at the servants for a moment. ”All of you must remember that you are already this princess' servants. What's the matter with your words and deeds? Do not disobey your duty, otherwise this princess will never forgive you.” ”Go and open the door, and ask General Jin to come in.”
She sat down on the couch so that Jin wouldn't have to search her room for her bed when she was in charge of the search. She wasn't sure if Jin Xiaofeng, who was Tuoba Fei's subordinate, would give her face and not search her room.
”Has he discovered that someone has entered my room? If so, how do I explain this?”
Yue Chanjuan wasn't worried about being unable to explain anything to Jin Xiao Feng, but was instead worried about how to explain things to Tuoba Fei. When she thought of that man, she immediately lost her wits.
He was her nemesis. In front of him, all her tricks were useless. Regardless of whether she was willing or not, she had to be his pawn and walk the path that he pointed out to her.
”As long as I have your company along the way, Tuoba Fei, there's no harm in continuing my journey!”
”Your subject Jin Xiao Feng pays his respects to the princess.”
