Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess Chapter 335 - Departure Again

While looking at the leader in the front of her, Lin Mengya smiled, but her eyes were cold.

The leader had worked in the palace for many years. He had some dealings with the Crown Prince or the other princes, more or less.

But it was the first time he had encountered Prince Yu.

Drops of cold sweat dripped down his temples.

It was okay if he managed to make a hit. But now, the so-called imperial case record was simply a medical book.

The sudden appearance of Prince Yu was putting great pressure on him. Now, Princess Yu was starting to fight back. Even the Crown Prince would not be able to win this battle, let alone the guard.

Now, he’d better—

“Can I leave now? It’s getting late. I don’t have anything more to talk with you here.”

The previously harsh Princess Yu now seemed like a flash in the pan.

But her tone did not sound as kindly as it did before.

After thinking about it, the leader smiled and had to give way to her.

“Of course you can. Prince Yu, Princess Yu, please.”

Looking at his fake smile, Lin Mengya did not want to talk anymore.

Long Tianyu, after giving those guards a cold glance, followed Lin Mengya, and got out of the palace.

All the guards could do nothing, but hold their breaths and kept their silence. Only Lin Mengya knew that they would die tonight.

Lin Mengya subconsciously turned to look at Long Tianyu, who had just mounted his horse.

A weird smile appeared at the corners of her mouth.

Now that the Crown Prince had started to follow her, he must have been preparing for her return.

Lin Mengya bent her head in order to get into her carriage. She was curious about how the Crown Prince would feel, when he saw Long Tianyu’s return.

The small, bouncing carriage soon left the vicinity of the palace.

The familiar carriage already had Lin Kui as the driver. It proved that Long Tianyu attached great importance to Lin Mengya’s safety.

After getting out of the carriage, Lin Mengya sighed. She could take Baisu with her, but Fanglan—

“We should go now. Be careful when you go back to the palace, and take care of yourself. Understand?”

Fanglan nodded. Although they were together only for a few days, Lin Mengya and Baisu were all funny women. This was rare in the Palace.

Lin Mengya was a n.o.ble lady, while Baisu was a kung fu master. But both of them got along well with each other, and were like sisters.

Baisu looked indifferent, but was very loyal to Lin Mengya only.

She had never had that kind of feeling before.

People were used to schemes and plots in the palace. If there existed such a sincere relationship, their ruthless lives would change a lot for the better.

Lin Mengya did not talk too much and only gave Fanglan some checks from Long Tianyu.

Lin Mengya could only make limited arrangements in the palace, but she was able to help them by giving them money.

Fanglan could not refuse and had to accept it. Her eyes started to turn red. Watching Lin Mengya and Baisu getting into the carriage, she just stood there until the carriage disappeared from her sight.

“Baisu, do you think we will ever meet her again?”

Lin Mengya did not pull back the curtain to take a look. No matter how unwilling she was, she had to leave.

It was better to leave quickly in this way, than to miss her in her heart.

“We will. Master, you will still go into the palace in the future, right?”

Baisu did not look at Lin Mengya, and her head was lowered.

But Lin Mengya just gave a faint sigh, and her pretty face looked exhausted.

“How long will you keep hiding from me? Baisu, how many secrets are you keeping?”

Silence. From the moment Lin Mengya said that, there was a weird silence in the carriage.

Baisu raised her head in astonishment. Her pretty face looked surprised, not cold anymore. She stared at Lin Mengya as if she did not believe that her Master sitting in the front of her, had seen through her and knew about the secrets she had been keeping for long.

“Ma…master, what do you mean? I…don’t understand…”

At that moment, what Baisu wanted most, was to convince Lin Mengya that she did not mean to keep any secrets from her.

But when she noticed the disappointment in her eyes, Baisu swallowed everything she wanted to say.

“You know all about it?”

Hearing her low, soft and weak voice, Lin Mengya suddenly felt cold.

She felt as if she was falling down into an icehouse. She gathered her coat closer and did not know exactly what she was feeling at the moment.

“I don’t know, but I want to know. You said that you were trained by your Master to protect Xiaoyu till death. I know, in this role, you can’t leave Xiaoyu even when he gives you that order. But now, you are staying with me. You must have other reasons, other than Xiaoyu’s order, right?”

Lin Mengya said this in a cold voice. Baisu was unfamiliar with that tone.

In front of the four maids, Lin Mengya was their tolerant, kind Master and their elder sister. She never acted ruthlessly toward them, because this side of her was only shown to her enemies.

Baisu smiled a bitter smiler, as if she was mocking herself. She felt as if a knife was piercing her heart.

If she could go back in time, she would choose to go back to her own state and be with Uncle Lie.

“Master…you’re right. Uncle Lie left me a task. That’s why I stayed in Dajin. I’m really a killer from Hunting Hall. My task is to get the chance to kill the Emperor of Dajin.”

Every word spoken by her pierced Lin Mengya’s heart, like a knife.

Lin Mengya’s eyes became very cold. She had never imagined that Baisu, whom she thought of as a sister, was a killer in disguise, hiding beside her.

Baisu was an emotionless girl. But Lin Mengya knew clearly that she was pa.s.sionate inside.

To her surprise, eventually, her feelings toward here were reciprocated.

After pondering over it for a while, Lin Mengya closed her eyes silently.

“You better go.”

These three simple words severed her relationship with Baisu.

If for whatever reasons Baisu should fail in her mission in the end, Lin Mengya knew clearly that she would have to make a difficult choice one day, if Baisu continued to be her maid.

“No, Master, I won’t go. I can’t leave you. If I leave you, who will protect you?”

Baisu burst into tears.

But Lin Mengya just kept her eyes closed, as if she was completely worn out, or totally disappointed.

“If you don’t go now, Prince Yu will kill you one day. Do you want to make it difficult for me? I will not protect the enemy. You know me well. Before I do anything I regret, it’s better for you to go.”

Lin Mengya said this in a resolute and cold tone.

Baisu looked at Lin Mengya tearfully, gritted her teeth, pushed open the carriage door, and disappeared into the sunset.

After a while, a low sigh was heard from inside the carriage.

It sounded really sad because it was mixed with complicated feelings.

“Your Highness, Baisu left. Should we—”

The guard, who was monitoring the carriage outside, came back to report. They already knew clearly who Baisu really was.

They did not take any action because of Prince Yu.

Long Tianyu looked into the distance with his dark eyes. But he did not order the arrest of the foreign a.s.sa.s.sin.

In fact, Lin Mengya was the saddest person inside the carriage.

“You can got back first. I will take a walk with my princess.”

It was rare to see some warmth on his indifferent face.

Long Tianyu changed his mind. After all, he could bring Lin Mengya back home whenever he wanted. It would be better to go for a walk with her now.

All the guards left, but there were many hiding in the darkness, protecting Lin Mengya and Long Tianyu.

The carriage was moving on steadily. Lin Mengya was lost in her sad thoughts. She failed to notice that the carriage had already pa.s.sed by the only way leading to Prince Yu’s Mansion.

Slowly, the noises from the people outside drifted in.

Lin Mengya was aroused by the noise and then she pulled the curtain aside with her hand, only to see the hustle and bustle of large crowds.

“Lin Kui? Where are we going? Aren’t we going back to our house?”

Lin Mengya asked in confusion. When she saw a gray figure showing up in front of her, she couldn’t help locking her beautiful eyes on the smiling face.

He was not his usual self today. Long Tianyu was neither the brave Prince Yu nor the honorable third prince today.

The gray, cotton wadded robe with a round black collar, made the curved face of the man in her front, look even more handsome.

He stretched out his slender, slim hand with the palm upward, and his eyes seemed shine like the stars.

“Let’s go for a walk. Today is the Lantern Festival. We can guess lantern riddles, look at the lanterns and set the lanterns adrift on the river.”

The light, soft voice had a strong, velvety texture.

Lin Mengya originally wanted to refuse, but when she saw his eyes watching her, she could not help stretching out her hands and putting them on his palms.

When her fingers felt his warm, dry hands, its core being the center of learning martial arts of many years, she felt a strange sparkle.

When she was about to withdraw her hands, Long Tianyu caught her hands tightly this time.

“Okay.”

She followed him out. They were not the n.o.ble Prince Yu and Princess Yu now. They were more like a rich, young and good looking couple, going out for an outing.

“Keep your eyes on them. There are too many people. Don’t let Prince Yu and Princess Yu get bothered by other people.”

Looking at them disappearing into the crowd, Lin Kui and the other poor guards frowned and silently screamed at their bad luck.

There was no need to be very alert in daily life. But now—

Lin Kui sighed. “Fine. We’re just pitiful guards.”
