Chapter 1403

“Shut the door and write down the names of those officials!” Nian Ling Jiao yelled. The dozen servants outside all held their fists, turned around and walked out of the courtyard. They wrote down the names of all the officials outside, especially the Minister of the Law Enforcement.
Finally, the gate of the mansion was closed tightly. Nian Ling Jiao's orders were not only heard by the servants, but also by Dong Fang Yu Qing and the Minister of the Law Enforcement. Dong Fang Yu Qing thought it was fine, but the Minister of the Law Enforcement was in a difficult situation. His brain was blank.
The mansion of the Princess Royal was quiet for a moment, and no one dared to disturb her. The prosperous night market of the Zhen Wu Dynasty was still going on, and all the disturbances from searching just now were gone.
In the Nian Ling Jiao's boudoir, Nian Ling Jiao calmly walked out of the bathtub with some water dripping from her body. With every step she took, white fog would spread out from her body. When she arrived at the head of the bed, her body was dry. Nian Ling Jiao put on her clothes without hesitation. Then she turned around and looked at Lin Feng, who had jumped out of the bathtub.
“You escaped from prison?” Nian Ling Jiao asked with a smile, sitting down in front of the dressing table. A dignified aesthetic feeling was left for Lin Feng to enjoy. Lin Feng had an impressive evaluation of Nian Ling Jiao. Nian Ling Jiao was really beautiful, but she also showed great maturity, as if she had been through the vicissitudes of life.
She was lovely, but she had good sense, which made Lin Feng doubt whether she was a young woman. This feeling made Lin Feng feel very strange, as he had never been through this before.
Generally speaking, no girl would let a strange man approach her, let alone enter her bathtub and expose all the important parts of her body. However, Nian Ling Jiao didn't seem to care. She didn’t have this reservation at all.
Honestly speaking, it was impossible not to see Nian Ling Jiao's jade body. He could look up in the bathtub, so he could see the important parts of her body. But Nian Ling Jiao didn't care.
This is really a strange Princess Royal, Lin Feng thought silently to himself. When he heard the question she had asked, Lin Feng had to tell the truth. She had saved him, and even risked her reputation. Lin Feng was very moved.
“Well, I was sent to prison by Dong Fang Yu Qing,” Lin Feng nodded. The words were very simple. Lin Feng had a kind of intuition that if you were having a conversation with Nian Ling Jiao, just be frank.
Nian Ling Jiao nodded and glanced at Lin Feng. His hands and feet were bound by iron chains. This kind of iron chain was specially made by Ancestor Tai himself. Even normal Overlords might not be able to break away.
“Come here.” Nian Ling Jiao hooked her finger to Lin Feng, her tone was firm and undeniable. It was an order. But it gave Lin Feng a friendly feeling, instead of any antipathy. It was an intuition.
Lin Feng walked over to Nian Ling Jiao. Nian Ling Jiao squatted on the ground and reached out her jade hand. A flash of golden light burst out, carrying a little destructive power. Lin Feng raised his eyebrows slightly, but only saw his foot chain crack and break into countless pieces.
Lin Feng was shocked. The Princess Royal was so powerful! He admired her, but learning of her strength of the Earthly Godly Ancestor, he calmed down.
“Do you mind if I don't open the bracelet now?” Nian Ling Jiao asked Lin Feng with a smile and squinting eyes. Her kindness was obvious, but Lin Feng could be sure that tenderness was not intended by Nian Ling Jiao.
“No problem. You helped me. I can't be more grateful," Lin Feng shook his head. He was not angry at all. Although he knew that Nian Ling Jiao was worried about herself, or had some other ideas, it didn't matter.
“That's good. You can be my guard from now on.” Nian Ling Jiao nodded her head slightly, speaking in a flat voice. She patted Lin Feng on the shoulder and didn't wait for Lin Feng to say anything, she went straight to the bed and wanted to sleep.
“What? Are you going to sleep with me? ” Nian Ling Jiao asked with a smile when she saw that Lin Feng didn't want to leave, narrowing her big eyes. All of this showed an indescribable playfulness and loveliness.
“If I'm your guard, then I have to keep myself close to you. You can sleep. I'll be watching outside.” Lin Feng also smiled. It was the first time he had smiled after being brought to the Zhen Wu Dynasty.
“Good night, my bodyguard.” Nian Ling Jiao smiled, just like a peony blooming, so beautiful. Then she turned around, not taking off her thin clothes. She covered herself with the quilt like a little girl sleeping and soon she fell asleep.
Lin Feng gave a wry smile, but he couldn't help taking a few more glances at Nian Ling Jiao. Maybe people in the World of Battles should change their minds. Before seeing Nian Ling Jiao, they could say that there were only two peerless beauties in the World of Battles, Ancestor Nü and Ni Huang. But after seeing Nian Ling Jiao, maybe they would find that she was no worse than the Ancestor Nü and Ni Huang!
Be it temperament, character or appearance, she was no worse than they. Lin Feng couldn't help feeling that Ancestor Tai was hiding his baby daughter too deeply.
Of course, no matter if her beauty was ultimate or not, it couldn't replace the position of Meng Qing in his heart. Lin Feng knew that was certain.
Walking outside the curtain, he sat on the chair casually and thought about this night. It was very dangerous but exciting, especially hiding in the tub where Nian Ling Jiao took a bath. This was an unprecedented aftertaste. People always said that the hero saved the beauty, but this time it was the beauty who saved the hero.
Lin Feng closed his eyes, and the night was over.
——-
The next day, when sunshine rose on the land of the Zhen Wu Dynasty, Nian Ling Jiao got up early. After washing her face and rinsing her mouth, she walked out of the curtain and saw Lin Feng, who was still sleeping on the chair. She couldn't help laughing. “This man is mysterious."
“Princess Royal, are you going to the court?”
The voices of men came from outside. He was the servant who guarded the gate yesterday. They were all servants trained by the Princess Royal. Each of them was extremely powerful. They were totally different from ordinary Holy Godly Ancestors. They would die for Nian Ling Jiao, because they were orphans without father or mother. If they had not been accepted by Nian Ling Jiao, they would have died miserably in the cruel world.
“Send a man to tell my father that the time of court was changed to noon.” Nian Ling Jiao didn’t want to disturb Lin Feng's sleep, and she also wanted to take Lin Feng to court, so she ordered people to change the time of the court.
The servants outside didn't say a word. They sent people directly to the palace to report to Ancestor Tai.
——
When Ancestor Tai heard that his daughter was going to change the time of court, he was surprised and pleased. Nian Ling Jiao had not been to court for at least half a year, and so he had not seen his daughter for half a year. He missed her very much.
“Herald, change the time of court to noon!”
Hearing the order of Ancestor Tai, all the officials who were walking into the Imperial Palace could only go back angrily. But when they found out that it was the Princess Royal's order, some of the officials who were creating disturbances last night murmured in their hearts, especially the Minister of Law Enforcement.
Dong Fang Yu Qing didn't say a word. He could guess that it was time for Nian Ling Jiao to strike back. It was such a big conflict yesterday. It was a big crime to search the Princess Royal's mansion, and he even broke into her bathroom. If Ancestor Tai learned about it, Dong Fang Yu Qing couldn't imagine the consequences.
When he calmed down, he found that it was really not worth it to take such pressure because of Lin Feng. It was too much. Was Lin Feng really that threatening to him? Dong Fang Yu Qing was not sure. He felt that he was making a fuss over a trifle.
——-
Time went by. Lin Feng was very tired. When he was beating on the bald man, he had overdrawn his strength. Escaping from prison was even more exhausting. He slept for a long time in peace.
When Lin Feng woke up, he found that there was a dining table in front of him, a variety of dishes on it. Nian Ling Jiao leaned her cheek on her hand and stared at him silently. Lin Feng was shocked. He stood up and immediately apologized while holding his fists. “Sorry, your Royal Highness, I'm really incompetent as a guard!”
“Don't bother. Come and have your meal!” Nian Ling Jiao shook her head and smiled as warmly as ever, just like a big sister. She knew that Lin Feng was tired so she commanded servants to prepare a luxurious meal. What Lin Feng didn't know was that this meal cost all the money the Princess Royal could use for a month.
“OK.” Lin Feng didn't refuse. He sat opposite Nian Ling Jiao and enjoyed a breakfast at the royal level. It was the finest breakfast Lin Feng had ever had.
Nian Ling Jiao ate elegantly. She was worthy of being the only daughter of Ancestor Tai. Instead of being spoiled, she was refined and courteous. It made Lin Feng more and more admiring. This woman was probably perfect, just like Meng Qing.
“After the meal, you should go to the court with me.” When Nian Ling Jiao saw Lin Feng putting down his chopsticks, she smiled faintly and stood up. It was the time for court.
Lin Feng heard what Nian Ling Jiao said. He was slightly shocked, but he nodded quickly, not refusing. He nodded obediently, “OK, we'll go to court together.”
Lin Feng didn’t know what had happened to him. What kind of magic did Nian Ling Jiao use? Flattery? Lin Feng was very clear that this was impossible, but he followed Nian Ling Jiao unconsciously. Whatever she said, he wouldn't refuse.
Maybe it was because of last night. After all, he had seen her naked, and Nian Ling Jiao didn’t care about it. It made him feel guilty.
Nian Ling Jiao walked out of the room and Lin Feng followed her. It stunned the servants in the yard. They were deeply shocked. How was it possible that there was a man with the Princess Royal?
Now it was easy to understand why Dong Fang Yu Qing was searching everywhere angrily. This man must be the one Dong Fang Yu Qing wanted!
“The Princess Royal, the carriage is ready.” The servant squatted humbly and ignored Lin Feng. Since the Princess Royal didn't say anything, they didn't dare ask more.
“Get one more carriage for this young man.” Nian Ling Jiao's pace quickened. She commanded servants to prepare one more carriage on the way. The servants did not dare talk nonsense and simply carried out the order.
“When we are on the court, I will help you vent your spleen.” Nian Ling Jiao sat in the carriage and smiled. She blinked at Lin Feng. It was very naughty and lovely and it made Lin Feng feel very warm.
Shaking his head, Lin Feng stood behind and waited for the next carriage to arrive. When the carriage arrived, Lin Feng got in without hesitation and followed the Princess Royal of the Zhen Wu Dynasty to court.
