Chapter 136

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

Yi Hong was dumbfounded, and after a moment she came back to her senses, with tears in his eyes, obviously aggrieved: “Princes, I...I know I was wrong, but I—”

She couldn’t be a servant, especially a third-class servant! If she had been a servant, there would be no chance to see the prince in the future, and her fantasy of living with him would be completely shattered!

But before she could finish speaking, Ling’er slapped her and knocked her to the ground.

“Presumptuous! How dare you talk back!?”

Seeing Yi Hong’s horrible state of bleeding from the corners of her mouth, Ban Lü and the others shrank their heads in fright, like a group of frightened quails, not daring to move, let alone speak.

They finally understood that the princess was not as easy to talk to as they thought. They were taken in on the surface, but after signing the deed, they were completely the princess’s hands. Let alone beating or scolding, she could even get away with killing.

The deed was clearly written just now, and signing this deed was to take the master’s lessons, and they can never go back on it!

They all came out of large houses. Naturally, they have seen examples of mistresses teaching courtesans and maids. The beatings, scolding, and punishments were all light. People with their status were like grass: even if they were beaten to death by the mistress, no one would hold the mistress responsible.

Until this moment, they finally knew how naive they were before.

Yi Hong received three slaps in the face and was beaten. She turned around, and she almost forgot her identity. She raised her head from the ground and shouted: “I am not a maid. I was given to the prince by His Royal Highness! I am to serve the prince!”

Her psychological gap was really too big. She originally wanted to get the favor of the prince by her own appearance, but now she was reduced to the status of a third-class maid by the princess. How could she stand it, how could she come to terms with it!?

The smile on Yu Linglong’s pretty face finally faded, revealing a bit of cold hostility, and she said solemnly: “Do you think you still belong to the prince?”

Throwing the bond with wet ink on Yi Hong’s face, Yu Linglong sneered: “Show me, it is clearly written on it. You belong to the Royal Palace of Xu, not the prince!”

The faint ink was printed on Yi Hong’s white face, making her look embarrassing at the moment. Yi Hong was holding the bond in her hands, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

At this moment, she finally woke up. From the beginning, Yu Linglong did not intend to take them in and asked them to sign a deed to completely control their life and death. From then on, they could only be called servants!

If you don’t listen to her instructions, it will be a dead end!

How could the arrogant Yi Hong suffer such humiliation? She raised her face and stared directly at Yu Linglong. Her eyes were bloodshot, and she screamed: “You—are so mean!”

After scolding this sentence, she was ready to be beaten again, but to her surprise, Ling’er did not do anything. Yu Linglong’s face was also very calm, not the beating and scolding her as she expected.

But under this calm, there was a bigger storm hidden.

Yu Linglong glanced at Ling’er. Ling’er understood, and forcibly snatched the bond from Yi Hong’s hands, and handed it to Yu Linglong.

Shaking the piece of paper that showed Yi Hong’s identity, Yu Linglong slowly folded it up, as if it was such a precious thing.

Then, she handed the piece of paper to Mama Liu and said lightly: “Since she doesn’t want to stay in the palace, sell her.”

What? Yu Linglong was going to sell her!?

Yi Hong hardly believed her ears. She had tried her best to stay in the Xu Palace. It didn’t even take half a day, and she was about to be sold!?

It was not the first time that she had been sold. Naturally, she knew what it is like to fall into the hands of a broker. She remembered being treated like livestock, enduring the humiliation and being touched by someone, opening her clothes to verify her identity. It felt as terrible as falling into hell!

Besides, she couldn’t carry things on her shoulders, couldn’t carry things with her hands, and couldn’t do rough jobs. If she was sold, what kind of person would she fall into!?

She didn’t dare think about it, she could not think about it!

Yi Hong’s face turned pale, and she rushed to Yu Linglong’s feet: “Princess, princess! I know I was wrong! Please, princess, keep me, I will never dare to confront the princess again!

She was not embarrassed by her humility. Now, for her, being able to stay was the most important thing. What did she care about face? If she was expelled from the palace, she would never have a bright future in her life!

It was fine to be a maid, there was a glimmer of hope if she could stay in the palace, but if she was sold, she can only be reduced to being someone else’s maid or concubine, or even sold to a poor family...

For her, who was accustomed to wearing brocade clothes and eating precious food, she wanted to be prosperous and wealthy, and it was simply better to die than live!

She pleaded bitterly but did not receive the slightest sympathy. Yu Linglong kicked her hand away, her face was full of disgust as if she was a toad that just jumped on her.

Her moist, pink lips looked like petals, but they were full of wind-like coldness: “Since you say that I am a despicable person, I will show you despicable.”

No longer minding Yi Hong who collapsed on the ground, Yu Linglong raised her eyes to Mama Liu and said, “Since she wants to serve men, obey her wish! Do you understand what I mean?”

Mama Liu respectfully said: “Yes, I remember.”

Yu Linglong couldn’t understand this more clearly. Didn’t Yi Hong mean to serve the prince? Wasn’t she dedicated to serving men!?

Then let her serve one!

This sentence set Yi Hong’s fate.

Yi Hong was not stupid. She immediately understood the meaning of Yu Linglong’s words, and immediately uttered a heartbreaking scream: “No! No! Princess, please be merciful, don’t sell me to such a place! “

She stepped forward desperately, trying to grab Yu Linglong’s feet as if that was the last straw that could save her: “I knew that it was wrong, princess, please have mercy—”

At this moment, her heart seemed to have been eaten by insects, full of regret. Why didn’t she leave the palace? Why was she still entangled in being kicked out of the house? Why did she want to sign that bond? Why couldn’t she be a third-class maid? Why did she speak against the princess...

All the thoughts appeared in her mind one by one. She had so many opportunities to leave, why did she have to let herself get into this dead-end!?

If you take one wrong step, your whole life will be wrong!

Turning a deaf ear to Yi Hong’s piercing cry, Yu Linglong motioned to her women to drag Yi Hong out and then turned her gaze on Banlü and the others.

“Who else has an opinion?” Yu Linglong asked kindly with a spring breeze on her face.

The remaining four women seemed to be so frightened that their legs were weak, and they knelt on the ground with a thump, their bodies shivering uncontrollably, and even their voices were stammering: “We...we wouldn’t dare.”

Yu Linglong nodded in satisfaction, and said, “Leave.”

The four women stood up by supporting each other. They didn’t even dare to lift their heads and walked out desperately.

After dealing with these women, Yu Linglong stood up, walked to the couch under the window, and lay down.

After only three days in the Xu Palace, Yu Linglong couldn’t help but feel a little distressed. How could the Xu Palace have so many restless women? It was a blessing for her to marry him, or how would he deal with these rotten peach blossoms!?

She was feeling upset, but the actor came back.

As soon as Lord Xu entered the room, he went to sit next to Yu Linglong as usual, with a gentle smile in his eyes: “Are you sleeping?”

Yu Linglong said irritably: “What sleep? Do you think I’m not busy enough!”

Lord Xu was a little confused: “What, are you unhappy?”

Yu Linglong was angry and ignored him.

She couldn’t even tell why she was so irritable for no reason. It stands to reason that she had made these women submissive, so she should be in a good mood. Why was she still so depressed?

Seeing her pouting her mouth and not speaking, Lord Xu smiled slightly, and reached out and took out a paper bag from his arms: “Linglong, do you want to see what I brought you?”

Yu Linglong didn’t even look at it, so she pushed it away: “No!”

What did he bring? It was nothing more than gold and jade jewelry, rare treasures, and the like. What could she use those for?

Unexpectedly, as she raised her hand and pushed it, it fell from Lord Xu’s hands, and the paper bag dropped to the ground.

With a soft slap, a corner of the contents of the paper bag was exposed, and an elegant fragrance drifted away.

Yu Linglong was startled, and looked to the ground, and saw a few pieces of cloud cake in the paper bag. Although she hadn’t tasted it, she could see that the pastry was fragrant and soft, which looked appetizing.

Lord Xu silently picked up the paper bag and said softly: “I ate a piece of cloud cake at Prince Qi’s Mansion. I thought it was delicious, so I wrapped it up and brought it back to you. Since you don’t like it, I will order it to be thrown away. “

He was not angry, but his words sounded a little sad. Yu Linglong looked at him, a big man, who leaned down respectfully and picked up the few cloud cakes for himself. A strange burst in her heart.

Seeing that Lord Xu was about to throw away the paper bag, Yu Linglong suddenly said, “Wait.”

She didn’t even know why she wanted to stop Lord Xu’s movements. Seeing him raising his eyes to look at her, his inky dark eyes showed some confusion. Yu Linglong’s ears became hot for no reason, and she turned her face away and said: “Put it on the table.”

Lord Xu suspiciously said: “It’s dirty—”

Yu Linglong became irritable: “Keep it for the dog!”

Shaking his head helplessly, Lord Xu placed the paper bag on the table and changed the subject: “This Spring Hunt will probably last for half a month. Have you packed up all your things?”

Yu Linglong thought for a while, and said, “Mama Liu takes care of these things. Maybe it’s done.”

Lord Xu smiled and beckoned to Ling’er to come over: “Go and give orders. It’s cold over there. Bring the princess a few more warm clothes.”

Ling’er responded and went out to spread the word.

Only Lord Xu and Yu Linglong were left in the room, and they fell silent suddenly.

The shadows of the branches outside were projected on the window screens, swaying in the winter wind. Yu Linglong looked at the swaying branches, suddenly a little upset in her heart.

She seemed to have something to ask him but stubbornly refused to speak. This strange feeling made her very uneasy as if something had lost her control and was moving in a dangerous direction.

She smelled the familiar mint fragrance around her, giving her an inexplicable sense of peace of mind. This feeling made her have a kind of instinctive rejection, and she suddenly opened her mouth and said, “What are you still sitting here for?”

Lord Xu said softly: “I won’t do anything, I just want to look at you like this.”

As soon as Yu Linglong raised her eyes, she ran into his watery gaze, as if she had fallen into a deep spring, and she could not help but hold her breath.

His eyes were bright and cool, but it made the heat behind her ears get hotter and hotter, almost burning her cheeks and burning all over her body.

Not wanting to be seen by him in her embarrassment, Yu Linglong reached out and pushed him: “Go, go, don’t annoy me here!”

Lord Xu was a little helpless, so he had to get up and leave: “Then rest for a while. You will have to go a long way tomorrow.”

Yu Linglong turned over, leaving a slender back to him.

When Lord Xu left the room, the room finally fell into silence.

But she couldn’t fall asleep anyhow. She tossed about on the soft and warm couch, but she was uncomfortable lying down.

The more she tossed, the clearer her mind was and the more annoying her heart became. She simply sat up and opened her mouth to call someone to pour tea.

Sitting up, she saw the little paper bag on the table.

The cloud cake inside was stained with a little dust, and it became more and more white and soft. She looked at the cloud cake with a faint fragrance, and somehow she remembered the appearance of Lord Xu.

It was difficult for her to imagine how he, the prince, carefully wrapped the pastry at the banquet and then brought it back to her with joy.

The cloud cake was small, but this let her know that even if it was such a small matter, he still thought of her.

It turns out, if you liked someone, you would miss her all the time. Even if you ate a delicious snack or saw a fun thing, you would have to take it back and share it with her.

It turns out that if you love a person, you will willingly give up your identity, status, and dignity for her. As long as she smiles, it is enough to make her happy.

Moreover, you don’t care about the eyes of others, the comments of others, and the teasing of others.

It seemed that for the first time in her past and present lives, she understood what love is.

Love is giving without care, without asking for rewards. As long as the other person is happy, you will do anything they want, even if you give up everything.

Once, she thought that she knew what love was. At that time, she thought that love was a knife. When she gave it to others, they would use it to stab her.

But now she understood that love was given to the other party, and the result was not always pain. If you choose the right person, they will pick up this knife and cut off all the thorns in your path, and become your savior.

She curled her legs up involuntarily, stroking the dagger he gave her on her calf. The cool blade moistened her fingertips, but it was burning her heart.

He had already given her his knife.

Should she hurt him, or should she pick up the knife and walk side by side with him?
