章 50: Lin Feng Involvement

"Crown prince…. Huh..? prince.. my foot. What did he take for me? A servant. How could he think that greatly of him? Just because he is a prince, did he think he could do anything?" entering her chamber Liu Ying was behind her. Making sure that no one had discovered her absence, Linxiao blurted her heart out.

As both Linxiao and Liu Ying have to head back to the chamber. When Lin Feng left, bringing Mo Lichen with him, without giving them another chance to speak.

"I... Princess, ..princess Linxiao would serve him. NO…. never, in his dream." Pointing at herself, Linxiao said as she circled in the room. Linxiao was still in her man's attire.

Did not she care what would happen, if someone would see her like this. Going toward the bed, she said.

"Did he want to take revenge on me? For the market incident or for the pleasure pavilion?" Linxiao sneered and her fist clenched, thinking about what Mo Lichen had requested from her brother.

He wants Linxiao to serve Mo Lichen as Xiao Tong.

"What does he think of himself? Can he bully me? With misusing his position as the prince. When I have no resort to go back to him. Then it will never happen." Linxiao's eyes flicker as her beautiful face seems bewildered at the thought of serving as a servant.

"princess…... Linxiao... please slow down first." Liu Ying getting closer to chaotic Linxiao. She kept her hand on Linxiao's shoulder, moving at the bed.

"We would think of a way to deal with it," Liu Ying tried to calm the burning flame inside Linxiao's heart. Which can cook who comes to her. Liu Ying didn't stress with that side of Linxiao.

"How should I calm down? Huh? When my brother already agreed with his request," Linxiao said, tilting her head, as Liu Ying faced Linxiao's anxious and fierce side.

How could a princess be delighted? If she has to serve as a servant to another kingdom's crown prince.

'Now I am a real princess and how could I do that?' Linxiao wonders the possibilities as if she would be in her world. Then it would be feasible to work part-time for others. But in this world, that too, now she was in the place of a princess. Then how could she do it? Which she was not supposed to do.

It would hurt her ego and her pride as a princess.

"What should I do now?" Linxiao sat back on the bed, as she questioned Liu Ying. What can she do? She racked her brain cells to the point to come up with a better idea. Like her, Liu Ying, who has nothing in her mind. Standing beside Linxiao she only stares at her.

Linxiao tapped on her head with her finger and wiggled her feet by closing her eyes as she was thinking about something. It seems like she was in deep thought.

"You should tell prince Lin Feng the whole truth. He will handle it well. He would not let his little sister act as a servant of others." Liu Ying suggested it abruptly. It seemed she was not only standing there like a statue, but she was also thinking of resolving the Linxiao problem.

Liu Ying's gaze was on Linxiao's face, which was pale and looked a little restless, as she was exhausted, because of her weak body.

How could Lin Feng let his princess be a servant? Whether or not Mo Lichen was his friend. Liu Ying thought it would be the best option for them. Only one person, Lin Feng, could save Linxiao from this situation.

"No… we can't do that." Linxiao exclaimed and opened her eyes, caught off guard by Liu Ying's suggestion.

Linxiao disapproved of Liu Ying's idea and stood from her seat. "Why not?" Liu Ying asked. She was confused as to why Linxiao didn't want to take Prince Lin Feng's help? When he could easily help her. And she has not acted as a servant.

Was Liu Ying that naïve? not able to understand the little things. How could they be informed about Linxiao's deed to her brother?

"How could I? I have other plans to use this identity for something." Linxiao looked into Liu Ying's eyes.

"I don't want to disclose it to anyone," walking forward to the side of the room where the new mirror was placed as she had broken the first one before, she thought perhaps because of her imagination and hallucination with the medicine effect.

Linxiao told the truth to her, which was in her mind from the beginning when she stepped out of Han Xuan er's chamber dressed as a man.

"But he is a prince….. and your brother. You could tell him this," Liu Ying said, again strolling behind Linxiao who was staring at her reflection in the mirror with calm experience as she was thinking about something serious.

Liu Ying understands Linxiao's reasoning and what she was up to. She remembers how someone wanted to expel Linxiao and wished to see her on death bed.

As the matter took another turn, away from the discussion from before.

"And even he would help you." Liu Ying tried to persuade Linxiao to tell the truth.

And suggest taking Lin Feng's help for what Linxiao was up to.

"Or you have no trust in Prince Lin Feng?" Liu Ying concluded, widening her eyes with the thought of Linxiao taking measure even from Lin Feng.

Was prince Lin Feng had done something or was involved behind Linxiao's incident? Or was he someone Linxiao suspected? Liu Ying wondered.

But from what she had observed in all these years, it was hard to believe it would be Prince Lin Feng. How could he? when he cared for Linxiao like she was some precious treasure.

"No...it's not like that. I trust him more than anything, but right now, I can't tell him. Because there are many hidden spies in the palace. It's hard they would not discover it. If they come to know about this, they will be careful." Linxiao explained, looking at the man's clothes which she had still worn.

Linxiao first had the same doubt as Liu Ying. When she first thought about the possibility. As in palace politics, one could harm her or his relatives. She had seen in historical dramas, but she remembered from her memory lane, how Lin Feng loved his beloved little sister. Her thoughts drift away from her imagination.
