Chapter 305 Living in the Sun
Ruyi rolled her eyes. [It's the aura and the look in their eyes; you can sense that too, can't you?]
Dongfang Jin shook his head. Indeed, although these people meant no harm, the other three did show some arrogance.
She doesn't lack grandmothers here.
Therefore, it's best to go back to where you came from.
She didn't want to cause herself any trouble.
[Hehe, indeed. Since they're unwilling, it's not appropriate for us to keep them.]
Dongfang Jin looked at the four aloof and beautiful women and smiled strangely: "Do you know why you're following me?"
One of the women stepped forward and said coldly, "Protect."
Just two words, concise and to the point, but cold and aloof, devoid of any emotion.
Dongfang Jin...
It's so cold!
They really are secret guards, sparing with their words.
“No, help me with the work,” Dongfang Jin said, and then saw Xia Lan carrying a large plate of snacks over.
Pointing at Xia Lan, who is now the most skilled in martial arts among the younger ones: "Hey, this is what I do, a maid, not a bodyguard."
Although they are all servants, there is a difference between maids and subordinates.
Another woman instantly revealed her presence, looking at her with hostility: "You..."
Dongfang Jin ignored her and pointed to the woman Ruyi had mentioned: "She stays. The three of you can go back to where you came from."
I don't need too many people here. My family are farmers; we can't afford to support you all."
It means that my temple is too small to accommodate such a great Buddha as you.
Cang Lingxuan looked at them coldly. It seemed they had been too lenient with these people; it was time to teach them a lesson.
The thirty-six of them were originally shadow guards trained by their father for his younger sister.
Father originally left twelve servants for each of his two younger sisters, but since Yao passed away, Xiao Jin'er has disappeared.
In a fit of rage, the father killed all those people, and then the mother selected thirty-six of them from the secret service.
Now they've chosen their master?
I don’t know what is good or bad!
If it weren't for my cousin's silence, they wouldn't be feeling so frustrated.
Their sister, the princess of the Cang family, was not someone they would despise.
"Step back!" The words were icy and chilling.
"Yes." The three bowed respectfully to Cang Lingxuan and then left like ghosts.
Dongfang Jin looked at the one who had been left behind and asked with a smile, "What's your name? How old are you?"
The woman in black immediately knelt down and kowtowed, pressing one hand to her heart: "Please bestow a name upon me, my master. I am sixteen years old this year."
Yes, she referred to herself as a servant, not a subordinate.
Dongfang Jin was satisfied with her attitude, and looked at Cang Lingxuan, who still had a cold face: "Brother, can I name her?"
Cang Lingxuan put away his coldness and looked at her with a doting expression: "They were always meant to be yours; once you give them to you, they're yours."
If my little sister doesn't like the name Yuying, we can change it for her when she comes back.
Cang Lingxuan almost let slip, but it was clear to everyone present that they were all shrewd and capable.
The two old women exchanged a glance, seeing the suspicion in each other's eyes.
The two men beside him stood even more cautiously to the side; when had the young prince ever been so amiable?
Bro?
Little sister?
Could it be...
Everyone knew that Prince Dun had lost a daughter. Could it be this one...?
Judging by his age and appearance, it's almost certainly him.
Oh my...
Dongfang Jin shook her head: "Yu Ying's name is very nice, why wouldn't I like it?"
Since she'll be with me from now on, let's call her Moon Shadow.
"Moon Shadow thanks Your Majesty for bestowing this name upon you."
"Get up. You don't need to kneel when you're with me from now on."
“Yes,” Yueying stood up.
He seems to be in a good mood.
She was indeed in a good mood; this mistress resembled the princess so much, and was being so pampered by the young prince.
She didn't repeat what the leader had said when they were first chosen—that they would belong to the young princess from now on.
Dongfang Jin looked at Yueying: "Also, you don't need to wear a veil or hide in the shadows when you follow me from now on."
Yueying looked at Cang Lingxuan: "This?"
Can it work?
This was her long-cherished dream.
Don't we need to hide in the shadows?
So does that mean she can live in the sunlight like a normal person?
Cang Lingxuan glanced at her and said indifferently, "I'll listen to Xiao Jin."
Yueying composed herself, straightened her luggage, and excitedly said, "Yes!"
After saying that, she took off her veil.
The group then looked at Yueying. Her beauty was not only due to external adornment, but also a natural expression of her inner radiance.
Her eyes, deep and bright, were like the most brilliant stars in the night sky, sparkling with wisdom and gentleness.
Her nose was straight and delicate, perfectly shaped with lips of a color like newly blooming cherry blossoms, soft and alluring, inspiring endless imagination.
She had long, glossy black hair, styled in a high ponytail, the strands swaying gently in the wind, exuding a sense of untamed freedom.
Perhaps sensing that everyone was staring at her, a faint frosty aura settled between her brows, and her lips were tightly pursed, clearly indicating some annoyance.
Ruyi sighed in the space, "[Beautiful woman! Such a first-class beauty as a secret guard, it is clear that their life is full of hardship and difficulty.]"
Once they become bodyguards, they must remain vigilant at all times and cannot afford to relax in the slightest.
They cannot have normal emotional lives, and they cannot easily reveal their true identities and feelings.
They are like ghosts in the night, sharp swords in their masters' hands, yet also synonyms for loneliness and solitude.
What a pity, what a pity!
Dongfang Jin...
This guy actually started to feel sorry for her?
Lu Yunqing was not swayed by her beauty. He stepped forward and pointed to the two men beside him: "This is Zhao Yuangang, who used to be a teacher at the Imperial Academy."
"Because he offended the Zheng family a few years ago and was subsequently exiled..."
The people behind Lu Yunqing spoke very softly.
Dongfang Jin nodded. Lu Yunqing wanted to say something, but he was pulled away by Gu Chenglin and Cang Lingxuan from the left and right.
Cang Lingxuan's face was full of displeasure: "Mind your place!"
Gu Chenglin said coldly, "She is my wife."
Lu Yunqing...
He just got a little closer, didn't he?
As for?
Dongfang Jin ignored them, because she was looking at Zhao Yuangang with shining eyes.
The Master of the Imperial Academy! This is the master of the Imperial Academy in ancient times, the master of the highest institution of learning in the world.
He has a dignified appearance and exudes the air of a scholar.
He wore a neat scholar's robe, the hem fluttering in the wind, its light color revealing a purity untouched by worldly dust.
Her hair was tied up with a wooden hairpin, the strands of which were jet black with a few gray streaks, showing the wisdom and experience accumulated over the years.
His face was thin and refined, and his brows revealed wisdom and kindness, as if he could see through the mysteries of all things in the world.
His beard was neatly trimmed, with silver strands mixed in, adding to his majesty and solemnity.
His hands are often holding books, and his knuckles are slightly large from years of reading, which also reveals his dedication and love for knowledge.
As he walked, his steps were steady, each one seemingly in step with the rhythm of knowledge, revealing an extraordinary and refined temperament.
Zhao Yuangang walked over and bowed to Dongfang Jin, saying, "Greetings, Master."
Upon seeing this, Dongfang Jin immediately dodged away. This was a man of great learning, and she dared not accept his generous gift.
"No, no, Master Zhao, please sit down."
Cang Lingxuan was speechless at his sister’s subservient manner: “Xiao Jin, Master Zhao has no intention of going to the Imperial Academy anymore. Your cousin said you want Gu Chenglin’s son to take the imperial examination.”
So they sent Master Zhao to your house, since he also wanted a change of scenery.
He was in charge of the exam venues every year, and he knows the exam questions inside and out. What do you think?
Is this an attempt to curry favor with the emperor?
Dongfang Jin smiled sincerely: "Since he's here, he can stay. Don't worry, he won't be treated badly."
It just so happens that Fang Shiyu and his four companions are also going to take the imperial examination. They had Jun Qirui help them with their review beforehand.
Now, with Master Zhao's guidance... it seems the five of them will definitely be on the list.
