The Captivating Crown Prince

Lin Jia Er’s eyes flashed. He’s already so skinny, but he still calls me fatty? Everyone saw that she had clearly become prettier. Although she couldn’t be compared to the Crown Prince, she could still attract some little girls along the way. Why did it seem like she had flesh growing out of her mouth?

“Princess Lian!” Lin Jia Er bowed slightly in greeting to Nangong Lian. The courteous and courteous Nangong Lian’s eyes were filled with a layer of sadness and grievance that she could not even describe. She only felt that this Lin Jia Er was too unfamiliar, so distant that she felt unfamiliar.

Nangong Lian stood in front of Lin Jia Er and asked curiously, “It’s only been a few months since I last saw you, but not only is your flesh thinner, even your brain is probably also thinner. Prince Shang’s punishment is too severe!”

Nangong Lian had not seen Lin Jia Er ever since Lin Jia Er was punished. Yesterday, when she heard the crown prince ask Lin Jia Er to escort her back, she was very happy. Thinking about it, the two of them could be considered to have gotten along together along the way, but seeing Lin Jia Er’s and those imperial bodyguards’ attitude made Nangong Lian feel that all the excitement she had yesterday was wasted.

“Princess Lian must be joking!” “It’s so cold outside, and we’re even inviting Princess Lian into the carriage. We’re about to depart!” Lin Jia Er lifted the heavy curtain that was blocking out the snow and wind on the carriage and acted like he was a dutiful guard.

He jumped onto the carriage and lowered the curtain of the carriage. Inside, one could still hear curses, causing the imperial guards who were surrounding the carriage to shut their mouths and look at Lin Jia Er. They really did not understand how a guard from the crown prince’s residence dared to provoke the princess.

Lin Jia Er glanced at the crowd and stood outside the carriage. Although it had only been a few months since they last saw him, he did not truly turn like this. The gangster aura on him did not dissipate at all; he had only learned how to disguise himself during training.

He had a very good impression of this Princess Lian. Although her complexion was bad, she was not as artificial as an ordinary girl. She looked very comfortable. However, before he came here, the crown prince had asked Fearless to deliver a message to him. If he did not manage to safely escort Princess Lian to the Nangong Imperial Clan, he would not have to return.

Previously, when Princess Lian was almost poisoned, Lin Jia Er had already felt a little remorseful. Now that he heard this, he didn’t dare to be impudent. Furthermore, looking at the long guard Lin Jia Er today, he realized that Nangong Lian was not the woman he could tease in the crown prince’s mansion, but the princess of a country, and he was only a guard. If he got too close with Nangong Lian, it would affect Nangong Lian’s reputation. He was first a subordinate of the crown prince’s secret guard, followed by Lin Jia Er.

The group slowly started moving forward. Nangong Lian was still fuming in the warm carriage, so she ignored Lin Jia Er. Lin Jia Er also only considered himself to be a guard. After two days passed like this, the two of them barely spoke.

On the third day after the group departed from Shang, they arrived at the Nangong Kingdom. Nangong Lian sat in the carriage boredly as she quietly lifted a corner of the carriage’s curtain. At first glance, Nangong Lian saw Lin Jia Er riding in front of the carriage. Lin Jia Er was clearly much more good-looking, but Nangong Lian felt that this Lin Jia Er wasn’t as pleasing to the eyes as he was before.

Nangong Lian, who had never been considerate to her guards, felt a little guilty and pained. She shouted, “The snow has already fallen so heavily. Why don’t we stop and find a place to rest. We can leave after the snow stops!”

When Lin Jia Er heard Nangong Lian’s voice stop the horse, the entire team also stopped.

Lin Jia Er thought for a moment before speaking to Nangong Lian, “Princess Lian, although we are already in the Nangong Kingdom, we are not safe since we haven’t escorted Princess Lian into the Qian King’s side for a day. Therefore, we can’t rest at the moment, please forgive us!”

His good intentions were rejected by Lin Jia Er. If it was the former Nangong Lian, she might not mind, but at this moment, she was very angry and did something she normally wouldn’t do. “This princess orders you to stop and rest!”

The other guards had dismounted. They were following the princess’s instructions, of course. Lin Jia Er had no choice but to get off his horse and find a farmhouse to rest. He remembered that even though this Nangong Lian looked very domineering, she was actually a reasonable woman. Why did she seem like a different person these days?

Nangong Lian got off the carriage and looked at Lin Jia Er provocatively. She saw the dissatisfaction in Lin Jia Er’s eyes. Nangong Lian felt sad. During her time in the crown prince’s mansion, she seemed to have become willful. What she did was wrong, but due to her anger, she had been unable to say anything.

Although it was a sunny day, because of the snow, everyone stayed in the farmhouse waiting for the snowstorm to subside. However, when the sound of horses galloping came from outside, Lin Jia Er knew that this was not a good thing.

As for the surrounding guards, they protected Nangong Lian. Although Nangong Lian was the princess of a country, she had the skills and was very hardworking. Even if she ran, she would fall into the snow, but Nangong Lian did not feel any discomfort. When the group of people ran out of the farmhouse, they saw a group of people riding over at a fast speed on horseback. They didn’t come with good intentions.

Lin Jia Er immediately got on the horse. Nangong Lian also abandoned the carriage and sat behind Lin Jia Er. Nangong Lian followed the horse’s hooves and looked at the farmer she was just staying with. She felt guilty, but it was just guilt.

Some of them stayed behind to stop the enemies behind them, while Lin Jia Er brought a few guards to protect Nangong Lian as she escaped.

“Quick!” Although a lot of the enemies had been killed, their chances of winning were not high. Furthermore, Nangong Lian knew that nothing would happen to him, so she did not go to Brother Huang’s side. If something happened to her, Prince Shang would be responsible, and not only Lin Jia Er, who knew about Nangong Lian’s troubles, would also know.

“Hold me tight!” Lin Jia Er’s roar carried a snowstorm into Nangong Lian’s ears. She tightly hugged Lin Jia Er’s waist. The horse neighed as it rapidly advanced. The snowstorm caused their faces to hurt.

Although the snowstorm had obstructed Lin Jia Er’s escape, at the same time, it had obstructed the enemies chasing behind him.

Looking at the endless chase, Lin Jia Er pulled the horse’s reins and ran towards a remote alley. The snowstorm was more dangerous, but it was very easy for the bandits who had lived on the mountain since young. The guards behind did not agree, but seeing that the princess did not stop them, they followed her down the path.

The enemy following behind looked at the horse’s hoofprints on the snow in disbelief, but the leader was still Gao He. “Quickly catch up to Princess Lian, kill her without mercy!” With that, the group of people followed the horse onto the small path.

The horses were not in a straight line, and the guards followed closely behind, but they did not know that many of the enemies behind them had fallen into caves that looked like snow-covered roads but were actually traps.

Nangong Lian’s hands had already become stiff from the cold. The veil on her face had already been lost at an unknown time. However, she did not loosen her grip. Everyone let out a sigh of relief, but then they saw the enemies chasing after them, and their horses were almost unable to hold on.

“Dismount!” Lin Jia Er hopped off the horse with Nangong Lian in his arms and took out the longsword that he had brought with him.

Nangong Lian also took out her longsword and looked at the enemies that were already attacking them. She looked at Lin Jia Er and said apologetically, “Sorry!” If he wasn’t willful, perhaps these enemies wouldn’t be able to catch up to him. Even if he could catch up to them, they would be very close to the capital of the Nangong Kingdom. His own safety wouldn’t be a problem.

Lin Jia Er glanced at Nangong Lian, who was standing beside him. At this moment, Nangong Lian was in a very sorry state. Her hair was dishevelled, and the blood on her clothes and the scar on her face made her look extremely ugly. However, Lin Jia Er still revealed a smile.

When Nangong Lian heard Lin Jia Er’s familiar tone, she also revealed a smile. But at that moment, a guard cried out in alarm, “Princess, the distant lord is here!” Indeed, when Nangong Lian lifted her head, she saw her imperial brother’s secret guard waving a weapon in the distance to reap their lives.

After all the enemies had been dealt with in the distance, he stood before Nangong Lian and bowed, “Princess, Your Highness has ordered me to bring the princess back to her mansion!” From afar, he also felt that he had arrived at the right time. If he had arrived later, the princess would have probably been injured.

Nangong Lian nodded. Then, she suddenly hugged Lin Jia Er. “We’re fine!”

Nangong Lian’s actions made Lin Jia Er frown in the distance. Lin Jia Er stiffly pushed Nangong Lian away. After saluting her, he indifferently said, “It is this subordinate’s responsibility to protect the princess. Princess is frightened!”

Nangong Lian, who had just experienced a life and death calamity, did not mind Lin Jia Er’s tone. She got on her horse and they rushed to the capital city without any delay …

“Brother Huang, I’m back!” Nangong Lian said with a smile as she stood in the manor and looked at her imperial brother who was sitting on the throne.

Nangong Qian sized up his younger sister and found that she was unharmed. He then shifted his gaze to Lin Jia Er. “You are Prince Shang’s secret guard?” Nangong Qian looked at the young man who was standing in front of him and began to ponder.

“Yes, this subordinate has escorted Princess Lian here. Farewell!” Lin Jia Er saluted and prepared to leave.

“Hey, Fatty, you can’t leave until after you’ve rested!” Nangong Lian tried to stop him. Her tone was filled with worry. However, Nangong Lian did not realize that Nangong Qian was thoughtfully looking at the two of them. Her deep phoenix eyes seemed to be pondering something.

“Thank you for Princess Lian’s concern. Your subordinate will take his leave!” He had a lot of things to do.

“Since you’re back, rest more!” After Nangong Qian finished speaking, he also went to the study room, leaving Nangong Lian to mutter to herself for a long time.
