Chapter 39: A Friendly Reminder

Proofreader: Prof. Zhu Yuan

“My lord, Princess Changle and her maids have been led to the hunting forest behind the Yun Palace by Ruan Jiujiu. ”

Ning Chao, who had been spying on Ruan Jiujiu, hurriedly returned to report after finding that Princess Changle was bamboozled by her with a mask.

Did it work that the lord used Ruan Jiujiu as a block to Princess Changle? This girl was bold and reckless obviously, and she would never be as polite as him to Princess Changle.

Surely, Princess Changle was sent to here by Emperor Tianlong, but would it be going too far by bringing her into the hunting forest?

What’s in the hunting forest? The beasts. Wasn’t it too much for the Princess?

“You don’t agree with my decision?”Beiming Xuan suddenly squinted his eyes, staring at him coldly.

“Never, my lord!”Ning Chao replied immediately, “I am too careful.”

But why Emperor Tianlong sent Princess Changle here? Didn’t he intend to test and poke around for some information under the name of conciliation?

The lord was assassinated, and the Emperor neither sent his officials, nor the prince, but a princess to visit him. Was he really aimed at conciliating the lord, or just intended to disgust him?

Emperor Tianlong only considered his own interests and completely ignored the traditions behind his behaviors. He was simply tramping down the dignity of Beiming Xuan.

An emperor was so faceless and selfish, why should the courtier respect for him?

So Ning Chao suddenly was aware that Ruan Jiujiu had done a good job.

He cast a glance to Beiming Xuan, “My lord, I just found out that Princess Changle was originally aimed at helping Ruan Qingqing to constantly trouble Ruan Jiujiu. But this time the hatred between them will be deeper, so I think Ruan Jiujiu will meet more trouble in the future.”

“No matter how much trouble she gonna have, it is her business.”Beijing Xuan replied mercilessly, “What she should care about is not to let her troublebother me. Otherwise, she is over.”

Hearing that, Ning Chao broke out in a cold sweat.

His lord was not only sinister for setting her in the limelight, but also merciless, so what he could do was only to pray for Ruan Jiuiu in his mind now.

For Ruan Jiujiu at the same time, however, She was overjoyed, because Princess Changle, who had always been so arrogant and made fun by bullying her, was now crying, kneeling and begging her for forgiveness, which made her really happy.

Although she was not her master, she was herself now, and she would never let the past go so easily. The sufferings her master had experienced before would be repaid by Princess Changle bit by bit.

Bringing them into the hunting forest and letting them survive there on their own, compared with what they had done to her before, were too kind.

Such kindness even made Ran Jiujiu hungry.

“I’m starving to death! Where are you, Zou Meng, my Mengky!”

Zou Meng was waiting there all the time. He had been used to serving Ruan Jiujiu, and since the lord didn’t say no, he then regarded it as his duty, and hurried to her on hearing her calling.

“Mengky, I’m hungry. Bring me a braised pig elbow.”Ruan Jiujiu required so, drooling.

The three meals she had here were really good. She could order what she wanted, and each cuisine was cooked carefully.

Zou Mong flushed suddenly, and looked at her with grievance.

She raised her eyebrows, “What's up? Your lord will not be so stingy to offer me a meal.”

“No, definitely not, Miss Ruan. But would you mind not calling me that?” Zou Meng was so depressed. He was more or less the guard around the King of Hell, so the nick name Mengky really hurt his dignity.

“Which one? Mengky?”Ruan Jiuiu suddenly realized, but she mentioned it again, which was like spreading salt on his wound.

Seeing him becoming more upset, she clapped on his shoulder and forthrightly said, “Come on, be a man. Never mind a simple name. Well, since you dislike it, I will call you Little Meng! How do you like it?”

Zou Meng wanted to die. Was he little? Ruan Jiujiu was clearly the little one!

But since he had learned her “horrible” characteristic these days, if he continued to let her talk, he would have a worse one than “Little Meng”, so he nodded sadly.

Ruan Jiujiu smiled, and ordered happily, “One braised pig elbow, one fish, and one more roast chicken. Well, some vegetable, please.”

She had ate too much meat these day, and should pay attention to the balance of nutrition.

Zou Meng remembered her orders, and walked toward the kitchen with a complex mood. Once he got out of the gate, he happened to Mu Rong, who had heard their conversations clearly at the gate, and he clapped on his back for consolation.

Honestly, this girl was really a... weirdo.

He had met some female medics before, who were quiet and soft, also with polite deeds and words, but this girl was really an exception, who was sharp-tongued, and even had such a voracious appetite.

Was she a woman?

“Murong, Is that you?”Ruan Jiujiu cried with joy when she saw him.

In a daze for a second, he stopped. Her extreme joy made him kind of chilling.

“Well, Miss Ruan, shall we have a talk?”Mu Rong was always polite and kind, but he didn’t realize that he was extremely polite this time, because he did plan to talk with her.

Feeling stunned for seconds, Ruan Jiujiu asked, “What’s up?”

“Could you stop calling me that... Murong?”Mu Rong felt a little bit embarrassed.

Ruan Jiujiu smiled a little, why do they always have problems with their nicknames?

“Then call you Murongky?”

He was speechless! Did he mean that?

“No, what I mean is that my family name is not Murong, but Mu!”

“Oh, really? I always thought your family name is Murong! But does it matter if I call you Murong?”She didn’t think it was inappropriate calling him Murong.

Mu Rong’s face turned black, and added, “They all call me doctor Mu.”

“Come on, why should I be the same as others? Otherwise it will make our relationship seem very common.”Ruan Jiujiu was such a person, the more others mind, the more she felt funny, and she would be against them.

My God, was our relationship very special? Mu Rong was speechless.

“Fine, I will never ask.”He compromised, because he did not intend to talk about this today.

“Miss Ruan, we will return to the capital tomorrow.”

Uh?

“This time is different, I afraid. Please be prepared.”He hesitated, but added, “Be prepared in advance.”

What?

Ruan Jiujiu’s face was crowded with shock and puzzlement...

It seemed that Mu Rong was trying to remind her. Would she meet some terrible accidents during her journey to the capital?

Suddenly an icy cold face of someone came to her mind, and her lips twitched.
