Editor : Minak Amie. Thank you for your hard work! Just another chapter to finish up the whole chapter 4 and we will back to Rong Tian and Feng Ming's side once more.
**************************
She could only restrain her flaring temper and continued speaking. “I ams.h.i.+ Min, personal maid of Prince Qing Li’s Imperial Concubine, Princess ZhangLiu of Zhao Bei. The princess has sent me here to warn Duke Ming to be wary ofHis Highness Qing Li. A fiend has mislead His Highness, causing him to lose hisrationality. He has been gathering experts in order to a.s.sa.s.sinate Duke Mingonce he steps foot into Tong’s capital.”
Luo Ning lifted his cup of tea and lightly took a sip. He gave a glancetowards s.h.i.+ Min and said coldly, “Is that so?”
In regards to Qing Li’s intentions, Luo Ning had already known.
In fact, the prince’s actions were connected to his sister, Luo QianQian’s plan. Even though he was not aware of all the details, he knew that thisPrince Qing Li was a p.a.w.n in her schemes.
Unfortunately, Princess Zhang Liu’s warning was intercepted by himbefore it could reach Feng Ming.
Luo Ning smiled mockingly inside as he indifferently listened to the bignews. Putting the tea cup down, he asked, “If you really are Princess ZhangLiu’s maid, do you have any evidence to back up your claim?”
s.h.i.+ Min was astonished.
She had come from a n.o.ble background in Zhao Bei and had been selectedby the princess to be her personal maid. She had managed to overcome many challengesafterwards. This time, she alone was tasked to travel from the capital to HanRuo in secret with the purpose of meeting Duke Ming. In her lifetime, this hadbeen the most difficult hurdle she ever faced.
The earth shattering news she had brought should have caused the manbefore her to be shocked, but not even a ripple of emotion could be seen on hiscalm face.
“Of course I have evidence. I have here a letter from the princess,” theexpression on her face was gloomy as she continued, “however, I must personallyhand this over to Duke Ming.”
Luo Ning coldly sneered. “All items that are delivered to the Young Lordneed to be checked twice before they are given to him. You have not removedyour veil, and I am incapable of seeing your face. You also refuse to let mesee the evidence, yet you still wish to meet with our Young Lord? He he… s.h.i.+Min xiaojie, are you notunderestimating our Young Lord? Don’t tell me Princess Zhang Liu permits anyonewho wishes to see her to appear before her so easily.”
Editor note : [The use of xiaojie is taboo in some parts of China as it may refer toprost.i.tutes. In Suzhou, xiaojie is subst.i.tuted with yatou (simplified Chinese: 丫头; traditional Chinese: 丫頭; pinyin: yātou), which in turn may be considered offensive in otherparts of China because yatou alsomeans "dumb girl".]
