Pff~!
Suddenly, a strong gush of wind came flying over, slamming right into Mu Ying’s shoulder and blasting her backwards from the impact. Blood came pouring out of her mouth as a result of the injury.
“Sister Mu Ying!” Getting all teary along the face after seeing how the maid tried to protect himself, Jin Tian tightens up his lips and asked: “Are you hurt? Is it painful?”
The loyal maid didn’t falter though in light of the huge disadvantage she faces. Rather, she’s only feeling warmth circulating across her veins right now. From the very beginning, the prince and princess has never once treated her or any palace attendants as servants or anything beneath themselves. So, how could she cower when the time has come to show her metal?
Ignoring the stinging pain, she rushes at the crowd once again, leaving a trail of blood in her wake. There’s incredible strength in her eyes right now.
……
At the same time as well, the palace guard who left earlier with Di Ling Yan in arm was about to make it past the palace gates when they bumped into a crazy looking figure.
Going bright at the sight of the baby girl, the crazy old coot that was once the strongest Keeper spoke with glee in his voice: “Good Ling Yan, I was just about to go find you to play. Huh? What’s the matter, why are you crying?”
Since Bai Yan left, the old coot has done nothing but either playing with the kids or running off by himself to the back mountains for some rest, hence his belated arrival.
Crying even harder now over the question: “Great Grandpapa, please go save Jin Tian. Oohwooo, please hurry and save Second Brother…”
Not dillydally at all, the old coot gets all serious in the face after seeing how terribly sad the girl was: “Where is Jin Tian? Did something happen to him?”
“Second Brother is in the backyard. A group of bad people barged into the palace and wants to capture him. I wanted to stay too, but Second Brother won’t let me and said I must flee. Please hurry before they take him away.”
What?
Mad and crazy as he was in the head, the old coot had enough sanity left in him to know what the consequences are if someone intends to kidnap the little glutton. Flaring up with rage: “Which asshole dares to kidnap my good little boy? Don’t worry Ling Yan, your great grandpapa here will go deal with those assholes right now.”
Having said that, the old coot’s figure was gone like a gush of wind.
Wiping the tears away, Di Ling Yan also firms up in the face: “Mr. Guard, can you take me to find Father? I’m worry about Father.”
Greatly startled by the request, the guard immediately shakes his head: “NO! Princess, I can’t do that. The king is currently locked in battle with those bastards from the Celestial Palace. If you go then they will certainly know of your existence.”
Hanging her head after hearing that: “But the one they want to take is me. If I do not show myself then they will continue to hound Father and Mother. I am their daughter. I won’t hide in the shadows while everyone protects me.”
Father, Mother, Big Brother, Second Brother and everyone in the palace are all my family. I must also fight to protect them!
“But Princess, the ones from the Celestial Palace will always be our enemy regardless of you showing yourself. Enough, I must take you to a safe place to hide for now.”
