Only she knew that she was dancing on the point of a sword and her life was full of hidden dangers.
But she had no option but to accept this!
The hot water washed her slightly tired body, and Lin ngya was sleepy. She leaned against the tub and just wanted to have a good sleep.
While she was half asleep, she saw a slender figure standing in front of her.
Lin ngya felt a quiver of panic, opened her beautiful eyes, and stared at Long Tianhao standing in front of her.
"What... do you want?"
At this crucial mont, Lin ngya did not forget to take the bath towel on the side of the barrel and wrapped around her body to make sure that no important body parts were left naked.
Long Tianhao suddenly turned his head. He just wanted to co here to visit her.
But after going into her room, he saw Lin ngya leaning against the tub. She looked sleepy and tired and he thought she was wounded or had an accident.
"You... You can first get dressed. I’ll wait for you outside the room."
After speaking, Long Tianhao strode to the window and pulled the screen between them before Lin ngya had said anything.
Lin ngya looked at Long Tianhao’s straight back with complicated emotions. It was no good crying and complaining that he had peeped at her.
She should stand up decently.
The sound of the water behind him was sensual.
Long Tianhao didn’t think that he was an upright gentleman, but he was also not a filthy snob who would take advantage of her perilous state.
But he could vaguely see her fair and pink skin in the clear water. Every man would let his imagination run away with him when he saw this.
"Prince, you can turn around now."
Lin ngya said softly without anger. Long Tianhao suddenly beca angry for no reason. His Princess was too generous!
Long Tianhao turned around once again. Lin ngya was wearing a new bright red dress. She wore her wet black hair down around her slender shoulders. She looked pure and charming.
It seed that the bright color suited her best but she only wore plain dresses in her daily life.
"Prince, why do you co here at midnight? I think that you want more information about the haunted teahouse, am I right?"
There were only several red candles but the room was bright.
He might be ready to go to bed, otherwise, he would never go out in a blue robe.
Even in the night, Long Tianhao’s eyes were still bright, which made others scared.
It was the first ti she dared not look him directly in his eyes. She could only lower her head respectfully.
"Yes, I heard that you’ve caught all the moles, haven’t you?"
Long Tianhao cald down and looked away from Lin ngya.
It was so strange. He had never been attracted to the beautiful girls. Why did he...
"I’m not sure whether I’ve caught all of them. But all the six secret agents are alive and I’ll think of a way to force them to betray their associates if there are still other agents in our mansion."
Long Tianhao nodded but he didn’t know how to bring the matter up.
He looked away unnaturally and tried to calm down. After thinking for a while, he said to her with great difficulty.
"I... I may have to sleep in your room at the first and the fifteenth days of a month."
"What? Prince, why?"
Lin ngya instantly widened her eyes. No one had eavesdropped on them for a long ti.
"This is the order of my mother."
In fact, Concubine De asked Long Tianhao to go to the Art Courtyard in the afternoon and they had a talk.
Concubine De told him that he was old enough to have a son to carry on his family na.
She said that she hadn’t urged him to have a son before because he hadn’t had a concubine at that ti, so she had to give up.
But now, he had a legal wife. Although they had just got married two months ago, Concubine De was anxious to have a grandson.
As a result, Long Tianhao had to make compromises to deal with his mother.
"What? But Prince, my courtyard is noisy and I’m afraid that you can’t have a good sleep here."
Lin ngya looked down at her slender fingertips and refused him politely.
"It’s not a big deal. That’s settled then. You can have a good rest and Lin Kui will interrogate the six moles."
Long Tianhao got up and said. Everyone must obey his command. Besides, Lin ngya had already beco his nominal wife and sex was a natural part of married life.
"But... Prince, can I interrogate Qinghu by myself?"
Long Tianhao refused her request and Lin ngya could only make compromises.
Long Tianhao narrowed his eyes and stared at this woman standing in front of him. The killer called Qinghu was quite handso. Did his Princess fall in love with him?
"This guy lied to ! I’ll skin him alive and make him feel sorry for everything he has done!"
It was impossible! Long Tianhao nodded with a strange expression. It seed that his concern was misplaced.
At this mont, Lin ngya looked sinister and horrible as if she wanted to kill Qinghu. Long Tianhao was sure that the head of the killer called Qinghu would be miserable.
After seeing Long Tianhao off, Lin ngya had a good sleep and woke up in the morning and felt refreshed.
Although most of the guards in Prince Yu’s Mansion had a tired night, other people were still as energetic as usual.
For example, the two won who stayed at the mansion still refused to leave.
"Master, you don’t know what happened in these days. Miss Lin and Miss Jiang have used various ways to please Concubine De since they stayed in our mansion. I’m terribly ashad of them!"
It was early in the morning. Baizhi served Lin ngya and helped her to get up. Then she kept talking about the two won.
Baizhi said that Lin ngwu and Jiang Ruqin had behaved disgracefully in Prince Yu’s Mansion.
Citizens of the Jin State were quite conservative. The unmarried girls couldn’t go out without permission, let alone live in the ho of an adult man.
Concubine De should have a clearer understanding of this social custom.
If she pretended to be magnanimous, Concubine De would feel that the two girls had no sense of decency.
The most important thing for royal mbers was to follow the rules and keep the dignity and reputation of the royal family.
For example, she could be vicious and cruel to enemies but everyone thought that she was an elegant Princess who always stayed at ho.
"You’re a shaless bitch! You’re not the master of the mansion yet! How dare you touch the food of the Princess!"
Lin ngya suddenly noticed that Baishao was arguing with soone sharply in the distance.
When Baishao entered her room, Lin ngya suddenly found that there was a reddening welt on her pretty face.
Obviously, she had been slapped.
How dare she! Lin ngya snorted silently. Recently, she was busy working for the Prince and forgot to deal with the black sheep in the mansion.
Lin ngya freshened up and sat at the dining table. Baishao took out her breakfast from the carved mahogany food container.
There was a small dish of chicken cucumber, a small dish of vinegar needle mushroom, three little red bean buns and one bowl of well-cooked millet and coix porridge. This was her breakfast.
Lin ngya maintained her composure and picked the cucumber that was obviously not fresh with her ivory chopsticks.
"It seems that the cooks in our mansion are getting lazier. Baiji, ask Steward Deng to find the cooks who prepared my breakfast today. Flog them soundly and throw them out."
Lin ngya threw away all the porridge bowl and dishes on the desk with a ringing crash.
The servants, who were cleaning the courtyard, stopped and looked at the main house secretly.
Miss Lin and Miss Jiang were very bossy recently. Today, the good-tempered Princess finally beca angry.
The servants suddenly beca excited. They wanted to know what the Princess would do to punish the two girls.
"Baishao, ask all the servant girls, maids, butlers, and manservants of the mansion to co to the Qinglan Courtyard after an hour. I have to teach them the rules, so they will not bring sha on the Prince."
She was furious. But her voice was still soft and she looked calm.
She remained calm and others would never know that the Princess was furious if they didn’t look at the broken tableware at the door.
She was a qualified hostess. If she beca furious and lost her decency easily, others would laugh at her.
Those maids who had worked for the influential families looked at her admiringly. They believed that this lady, who was living in the Qinglan Courtyard, was the real Princess.
Within a quarter of an hour, the butlers of different courtyards, including Steward Deng and Lin Kui, ca to the Qinglan Courtyard.
Lin ngya looked around casually and found that three or four cunning maids were not present.
They may think that they would never have their day by working for the Princess, so they decided to fawn on the future concubines.
Lin ngya was wearing a bright red dress with hundreds of golden butterflies on it. There was a golden peony hair accessory on her head. She looked dignified and graceful and all the servants were shocked by her beauty.
Jiang Ruqin and Lin ngwu, who were not married, were no match for her.
Moreover, Lin ngya may also be one of the most beautiful ladies in the entire capital city.
Servants standing in the Qinglan Courtyard were holding their breath. They dared not offend her anymore.
"I ask you to co here today to tell you so rules. I’m young but we can’t bring sha on Prince Yu’s Mansion. Please excuse any mistakes there may be."
Lin ngya looked at them and said. She was smiling but the servants felt cold after hearing what she had said.
She didn’t look like an 18-year-old girl. She was even more dignified than those ladies who had spent years dealing with family affairs.
"The Prince trusts . So I started to deal with all the affairs since I entered Prince Yu’s Mansion. Recently, there were many big and small problems. But I didn’t punish or criticize you for your negligence of duty. But this morning, soone broke the rules and hit my first-class servant girl. This is not a big deal. Masters can punish the servants if they make mistakes. But I want to know who slapped her."
