However, something very disappointing still happened. Her two beautiful attendants came in, saying that they wanted to help her bathe. She pulled the towel over her body and sank into the water, revealing only her head.
"You guys can go out. I can do it myself. I don't need help.”she ordered.
The two teenagers lowered their heads as if they were about to cry.
When she saw this, she became even angrier and roared,"What are you still standing there for?"
This roar scared the two of them so much that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy."Princess, please calm down, but please don't let us out. The emperor will kill us!”
"Do I need you to serve me when I bathe? Were there no palace maids in the palace?”As soon as she said this, she remembered that she had not seen a single maid in the palace for so many days and could not help but feel deflated.
What kind of rule is this? Could it be that a dignified princess had to allow two boys to witness her privacy every day and night? Didn't the ancients say that men and women shouldn't touch each other? Didn't they place the most importance on the defense between men and women? Ah, could this not be Earth? That was impossible, right? They were speaking Mandarin, the authentic Mandarin of the sect!
In the end, she still compromised, but her face was as smelly as stinky tofu. With a cold face, she allowed the two beautiful youths to apply a light and cold ointment on her, and then carefully put on a complicated and gorgeous palace dress for her.
When she was about to fall asleep at night, a white figure swayed in front of the bed. Her eyelashes fluttered as she sat up and said to the person who came,"Why are you only here now? Who was that person today?"
"The identity of the person who left the country hasn't been confirmed yet, but he shouldn't be an ordinary person.”
"I thought it was your people. What instructions do you have this time? Your Highness." It turned out that the person who came was Hiroshi. At this moment, Hiroshi was a little stunned when he saw Xue Lin's disheveled clothes. She looked exceptionally alluring in this state. He knew he couldn't continue watching, so he hurriedly looked away to calm himself down.
"No, I haven't. You're thinking too much. It's already not easy for things to come to this point. You just have to do a good job as Princess Anping and don't reveal any flaws. Of course, Yun Niao will definitely doubt your identity, so she won't be able to do anything to you even if you keep your cool. As for the palace maid you mentioned, she was already buried when Yun Xi died last year, so it's better to think of another way. If there's a chance, let's go to Yun Niao's dungeon again. Maybe we'll find something.”
Xue Lin nodded and hesitated for a long time before asking,""How is Heavenly Earth now?”
"Still here. However, some people left and the boss was replaced by Yun Niao's people.”
"Did the new boss force the young masters?”
Hiroshi smiled, and his voice became more relaxed."Do you think there's another person in this world who treats his subordinates as well as you do? A contract? This is a world where the strong prey on the weak. I think you should be more sensible now, right?”
I know that you either control your own destiny or let others control it. Now, I won't be a lamb to be slaughtered. Protect my family, defend my dignity, and never embarrass the people of Earth! Xue Lin said to herself in her heart.
Yun Niao, the proud daughter of the heavens, Yun Niao, here I come, take this!
She had always been brooding over Xiaosi's matter, so much so that she would occasionally reveal her irritable emotions. Ling Shuang saw it and remembered it in her heart, but she did not mention it at all. Fortunately, Xue Yao expressed her gratitude. She said,"The rules of the Imperial Palace have always been like this. Think about it, if there were other women in the palace, wouldn't there be a big mess? Xuexi, you're a noble and beautiful woman, so what if others see you? Could it be that he was shy? Look, what's there to be shy about? When your mother was your age, she already had countless concubines and husbands. Originally, I saw that you weren't young anymore and should have sent some beautiful youths over. It's just that your Peace Palace hasn't been repaired yet, so it might be inconvenient for you to live in the High Frost Palace. However, Xuexi, you should get married. The Prime Minister's family has two young masters who have yet to get married. They are really beautiful like flowers, full of spirit and handsome. Their literary talent and knowledge are even more outstanding.”
Was there a mistake? Two! Do you think the Prime Minister is a commoner? Wasn't this too humiliating? Xue Lin was cursing in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face. She had to agree. Who asked her to be a fake? She couldn't let others catch her now. If she wanted to be a good Princess Anping, she had to obediently agree to any conditions and obey any harsh rules.
Fortunately, Xue Yao spoke again, saying that Xue Xi, you don't know kung fu and are afraid that you will be at a disadvantage. I will send another small team of guards for you. However, the Royal Guards can't spare any more people. You can choose from the barracks.
Xue Lin then happily allowed Xiaosi and Xiaomei to comb her hair into a complicated hairstyle and insert a noble pearl hairpin. She then changed into a gorgeous ankle-length red dress and left for the military camp. Xue Lin stopped the carriage and greeted Hiroshi respectfully,""Anping greets Imperial Uncle. May I know where Imperial Uncle is going?”
" Oh, it's Xuexi." Hiroshi smiled faintly." I had nothing to do, so I came to take a stroll." Where is Xuexi going today?"
"Military camp. An Ping was terrified. She wondered if Imperial Uncle was willing to go with Xue Xi.”
The smile on Hiroshi's face deepened. In the next moment, he was already behind Xue Xi's carriage.
The two of them arrived at the camp one after another. It was quiet inside, but Xue Lin still felt a sense of timidity and respect. The sentries who were standing straight and the officers who had rushed over to welcome them, their cold temperament, especially the sharpness and decisiveness in their eyes, made her lose her mind and nervous for a moment.
"This subordinate greets Your Highness, Princess Anping!”Even his voice was so loud! Only then did she remember that she was a princess and could not embarrass the princess. She straightened her back and followed the officer to the front of the team that was standing straight.
At first, these people had a cold expression on their faces. It was obvious that they did not want to be selected. It was probably not a glorious thing to be a guard. Their future in the army should be greater. However, when they saw the well-dressed Princess Anping standing proudly in front of them, a strong and suppressed gasp sounded.
Then, everyone lowered their heads in unison. Occasionally, one or two of them who reacted slowly would still look at her in a daze.
It was shocking.
A peerless appearance.
Evil Huo Shui.
her beauty is beyond measure.
Everyone thought in their hearts, but they felt that all these words were not enough to be used on her. They only marveled at the fact that there was such a beautiful person in the world?
"Your Highness, these hundred people are the best in the camp. Their archery, horsemanship, and kung fu are all top-notch.”
Xue Lin's eyelashes trembled and she asked unhappily,""Why twelve? Can I choose two more?"
Some of the soldiers smiled, but most of them had a 360-degree change in attitude. Their initial reluctance to be chosen had turned into a strong desire to be chosen.
"Cough……this is the emperor's idea. Twelve people is enough to form a small team.”the officer said expressionlessly.
"Then…alright! Those who are unwilling to follow this princess, please raise your hand!”
What was that? Raise your hand? Wasn't that a surrender? They were soldiers, how could they surrender? No, he must not raise his hand!
No one raised their hands.
She was delighted and said happily,"Look, they're all willing to go with me!"”
Xue Lin coerced and bribed, and finally took away eighteen people. Twelve people, hmph, that was too little! Eighteen people could barely make up eighteen Arhats. Although it was a little too little, it was still passable. The first thing she did when she returned to the palace was to arrange for them to wash up. Then, she gave them rewards and whatnot. Her words were so polite that it was like that.
Everyone was momentarily bewitched by her beauty and naturally followed her willingly. Later on, when he saw her being so polite and magnanimous, he also developed the desire to pledge his loyalty to her. Thus, the guards quickly had a structure and gradually entered the state under the leadership of the captain.
However, the thing that gave her a headache still came. She had been taking a walk in the garden early in the morning, and Ling Shuang had happily pulled her to Chenhuan Palace, saying that Xue Yao was waiting for her there. She knew that Chenhuan Palace was a place where banquets were held to attract guests. She had never been there before. She had only seen the concubines, princesses, and princes when she first came to the palace. Her heart was perturbed, but on the surface, she followed Ling Shuang into the main hall without batting an eyelid.
Then, she saw a young man who looked like an ice sculpture. He had a slender body, slender and fair arms and fingers, and black eyes that were as clear as water. Behind the young man was a slightly older young man. He looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old. His face was like a peach blossom, and his eyes were like a waterfall. His temperament was elegant and wild. Seeing her enter, both of them looked at the door. The morning sun shone through the open door and shone on her back, her black hair, snow-white forehead, and long and thick eyelashes. She couldn't help but cover her eyes with her hands and take two steps forward to throw the sun behind her.
Such a dreamy figure with a porcelain doll-like face made everyone's hearts tremble and they stood up.
"Xuexi, these are the two young masters of the Prime Minister's family, Eldest Young Master Zi Qing and Second Young Master Zi Ke.”Xue Yao's expression was gentle as she called out softly.
Xue Lin responded in a low voice and sat down beside Xue Yao. Her eyes drifted to the two teenagers. Yes, she had to admit that she had never seen such a handsome boy before. He was so beautiful that it was as if he was a fairy child, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances at him. Uh, it was just pure admiration…
However, Xue Yao and Ling Shuang did not think so. The two of them smiled at each other. Ling Shuang continued,"I have heard that Ziqing is extremely talented and proficient in poetry. You are truly the number one young master of our Feng Nation. Young Master Zike is noble and pure, and no one in the world can compare to him in painting and calligraphy. The Prime Minister is really lucky to have such a peerless young master.”
