Bab 154: Benwang shall lead the coup Part II

Bai Yu was not allowed to leave the inn, no matter how much she wanted to. The shadow guardian, named Ah-Zhen, did not let her move a muscle. Ouyang Feilong told her to stay still and wait while he himself went out with his men to stir up trouble in Da Chu’s imperial palace?!

“Why are you guarding me? Shouldn’t you be with your master?”

“Miss Bai is my master.”

Bai Yu sighed for the hundredth time. She did not call herself ‘Benxiaojie’ to emphasize the distance between their positions. She just learned that Ah-Zhen had been acting as her shadow guard ever since the time they met at the festival, under Ouyang Feilong’s order before he left to go to war.

That meant he had been close by and had already seen her true color, so there was no longer a need to pretend to be a well-mannered noble lady.

“If I’m your master, then you have to listen to my orders. Help me sneak into the palace.”

Ah-Zhen was silent.

“Now.”

Thud Thud Thud.

“Ahhhh!”

“Why are there so many soldiers here?!”
