Lin ngya groaned in her heart. The voice sounded so familiar, that she felt alard when she heard it.
She spotted Hu Lunan through the entrance of the small tent.
The vice Princess looked hesitant as she was worried that what she was doing would be discovered and exposed.
If what she was doing were to co to light, the reputation of the Crown Prince would be ruined. She was caught unprepared and was at a loss of what to do.
"What are you trying to say, Second Prince? I don’t really understand."
As vice Prince Dugu forced a smile on her face, she signaled her guards with a look in her eyes for them to bring Lin ngya away.
"This girl is always full of craft and cunning. Vice Princess, are you afraid that you won’t be able to lay your hands on her once she leaves this tent?"
Unexpectedly, Hu Lunan reached out and held on to Lin ngya’s arm.
He was looking so sure of himself, it did not appear that he was here to expose the vice Princess’s act.
"Oh? Do you already know Princess Yu, Second Prince? Since we all know each other, why don’t we sit down together and have a chat?"
The vice Princess was obviously a clever lady. One look and she could tell that this Second Prince of the western vassal state was had the sa idea as the Crown Prince.
However, she was just wondering if the Crown Prince had given instructions to the Second Prince. She would have to wait for further instructions from the Crown Prince.
"That’s right, we have a rather deep friendship."
Hu Lunan said as he gave Lin ngya a knowing look, as the corners of his mouth curled up into a cold smile, looking as if he had taken advantage of Lin ngya.
Lin ngya did not expect that the Second Prince of the western vassal state would turn up to join forces with the vice Princess, and she was greatly alard.
The Crown Prince and Hu Lunan were all just as bad as each other. It was going to be difficult for her to find a way to escape today.
"Why aren’t you talking? Aren’t you the most eloquent woman around?"
Hu Lunan looked at Lin ngya. In fact, since the first day he set his eyes on her, he was deeply drawn towards her.
Finally today, she had beco a lamb led to the slaughter. He was not going to let this chance slip.
Lin ngya could only give both of them a cold stare, then she turned away and refused to speak a word.
"What a tough and unbending beauty. In the western vassal state, the tougher a beautiful lady is, the more attractive. If the Crown Prince did not have his eyes on you, I would’ve brought you back with to the western vassal state to be my slave woman."
Hu Lunan spoke with an evil intention as he let out a sinister laugh.
Lin ngya gave this hoodlum a smirk, thinking that although he was also a royal, he surely did not behave like the royals.
"You must be joking, Second Prince. This woman is, after all, a Dajin citizen. If you are in need of slave won, you may well pick them from outside to your heart content.
A low voice, filled with dismay, echoed through the air. Lin ngya was soone he held in high regards, how could he let others take her away from him so easily?
The Crown Prince suddenly walked into the tent.
As Lin ngya looked at these three people in the tent, she could tell that their minds were racing.
It appeared that they were not really heading towards the sa goal. In that case, there was still a chance for her to escape.
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince, you obviously have an eye for beauty hold her with high regard. However, she is after all your sister-in-law. If you take her in, this would turn into so scandal."
It seed that Hu Lunan was not afraid of the Crown Prince at all and for this reason, Lin ngya was able to assess the situation.
Both these n were up to no good, so Lin ngya decided to watch and play by ear from this mont on.
"I had initially thought that the Second Prince was an exceptionally intelligent person, but now I see that you are just an idiot.
The Crown Prince’s tone turned cold and so did the expression on his face.
A sudden murderous thought ca to the Crown Prince’s mind. It appeared that he had to eradicate the Second Prince of the western vassal state.
"Don’t conceive the idea of getting rid of . This is only the beginning of our collaboration. If an accident were to happen now, we’ll have to terminate our collaboration, right?
Nevertheless, Hu Lunan seed unperturbed. He was still wearing a sinister smile as if was confident that the Crown Prince would not lay a finger on him.
"Are you trying to threaten ?"
Imdiately the look in the Crown Prince’s eye turned insidious.
Being threatened was what he hated the most.
In Dajin, no one could lord over other than his mother. He was going to be the master of Dajin and this Second Prince of the western vassal state was but a chess piece in his hand.
"No, I’m not. I was just hoping that the Crown Prince would reconsider the options."
The Crown Prince was obviously not the only person who swooned over Lin ngya.
If Hu Lunan was an ambitious man,
His goals included both the control over a greater territory of the country and beautiful won. He was not going to give up so easily.
"Why should you jeopardize your harmonious relationship over a woman, Your Highness, the Crown Prince and Second Prince?"
Vice Princess Dugu could sense the tension between them. The Crown Prince had many beautiful won, but none of them had ever been esteed so highly by the Crown Prince.
It would not be wise to keep this woman with the Crown Prince. Why not send her to the western vassal state? This would be pleasing to King Ming and solidify their relationship.
"Oh? What good advice do you have, vice Princess Dugu?"
Hu Lunan to look at this woman, who, for the sake of pleasing her husbands, was willing to set up a trap in order to bring another woman to her husband’s bed.
"I’m a re woman, so my understanding is superficial and limited. I understand that everyone loves beautiful won. However, it would not be worthwhile sacrificing a cordial relationship over a woman. What do you say, Your Highness, the Crown Prince?"
The words of vice Princess Dugu seed to wake the Crown Prince from his stupor.
He was only provoked to anger by Hu Lunan.
He called to mind the agreent between the two of them. The need to keep Lin ngya to himself paled in comparison.
It was just because he could not accept the fact that his target was being intercepted halfway.
His pulled a long face, but the look in his eyes was no longer that hateful.
"Both of you, having made your calculations, are treating like the loot from a battle. Don’t you think you need to consult ?"
Lin ngya found it funny that these two arrogant n both thought they could lay their hands on her.
Be it the Crown Prince of Hu Lunan, they were both idiots in her eyes.
Having committed a grave mistake over a woman, what good could co out from them in the future?
"Pfft, you’re already a fish caught in our net now, there’s nothing for you brag about."
Hu Lunan was not worried at all that this woman would run away. He had a look around before he entered the tent and knew that this place was heavily guarded. Even he had a hard ti trying to get in here, not to ntion that she was a re girl trying to get out.
"One of you is the Crown Prince of Dajin and the other is the Second Prince of the western vassal state. As for , I’m the Prince Yu of Dajin. Do you really think it will be so easy for to just vanish from the surface of the earth?"
Lin ngya’s composure brought a sense of insecurity on the three of them.
Everyone who had had so form of interaction with this Princess Yu would know that she was full of craft and cunning.
If what she said was true, then...
"Don’t waste your effort. I’ve highly skilled kungfu personnel all around . I’ve co alone, wanting to check on your intentions. How else do you think I have co without even bringing any of my maidservants along?"
Wearing a confident and totally relaxed expression, Lin ngya remained seated. No one could read her mind at the mont.
Qinghu had secretly followed her since the beginning and was just waiting for her command. Once she gave her command, the people present may not even be sufficient to satisfy his desire to kill."
The look of mockery in her eyes was starting to make the people in the tent worry.
This woman must have sothing up her sleeves.
"So where is this highly skilled bodyguard of yours? How about you ask him to show himself so we can have a look."
Although Hu Lunan dared the princess in this way, he had put his hand on his dagger in preparation for any sudden attack.
If her so-called highly skilled bodyguards appeared suddenly, he was all ready to charge toward him and kill him imdiately.
However, Lin ngya just openly stared at them with a look of disdain.
"Do you think he would be so stupid to let you see him? If you don’t believe , you can have a look at where the others are other than these few at the entrance of the tent."
Qinghu had entered the tent earlier on, however, apart from Lin ngya, no one knew where he was hiding."
Soti, a man’s eyes could play tricks on him. Unfortunately, there three people were unaware of this fact.
"Will soone co over now?"
The Crown Prince refused to believe and called out in an attempt to summon his n, but there was no response.
The two guards at the entrance to the tent also looked around in amazent. They had received a unified instruction that when soone from inside the tent called out, they had to rush into the tent altogether. Why were they the only ones left now?
"Stop calling. I’ve secretly got rid of them already. If news of what all of you did today got out, it would be very troubleso for you."
Lin ngya said flatly. She had a keen sense for the sll, sharper than most people.
She could sll faintly the pungent sll of blood in the air.
Qinghu was swift in the use of the sword. Usually, he would not shed much blood when he killed.
Apart from her, no one else could sense this subtle pungent sll of blood.
These missing guards could all have been dead by now.
"What shall we do, Your Highness, the Crown Prince?"
Vice Princess Dugu would never have imagined that the incident would develop into this state.
Initially, they were rather confident of success. However, the situation had completely turned around within such a short ti fra.
What a frightening character Prince Yu was! She totally did not expect this woman to be hiding her impressive capabilities.
"I will not lay a finger on you because I don’t want others to know what happened today. I will take it like nothing has happened today. I hope you know how to behave from now on."
Now the initiating authority ca back to Lin ngya, but she did not plan to do sothing to shake the world.
If she were to kill them right there and then in order to satisfy her vengeance, there would be endless trouble for her.
Moreover, they all belonged to the royal family, so she would have a foothold on them. This was not the ti for a life and death struggle between them.
"I’ve been defeated by you once again, this is so unexpected."
Hu Lunan shot a piercing look at Lin ngya. She had utterly ruined his secret plan carefully crafted over the years.
Why was it that he could never be triumphant over this woman?
"You will get used to it over ti."
Lin ngya said with a faint smile, but her words made them want to strangle her to death.
