"Fang Yu, since you're married to Ling Shuang, then protect her like a man, don't be a turtle hiding in its shell, and let women stand in front of you to protect you!" Hu Li wanted to swallow Fang Yu alive. This fellow's name was extremely notorious in the capital, how could he be worthy of Ling Shuang? His tone became more and more unfriendly.
Fang Yu's peach blossom eyes were still as cold as ice. The corners of his lips curled up as he laughed sinisterly: "It seems like it's not the turn for an outsider to point fingers at my inner chamber, is it?"
Hu Li felt a wave of anger, but he could not do anything about it. If Ling Shuang did not marry this silkpants, he would have slapped her a long time ago. But he couldn't do it now. Fang Yu was right, he was always an outsider to Ling Shuang.
Six years ago, six years later.
"Shuang Er, let's go back!" Fang Yu held Ling Shuang's hand and was about to walk away, but they didn't expect that the sword in Hu Li's hand was already on his neck.
"Fang Yu, are you even a man? Did you know that Ling Shuang wanted to sell her father's Imperial Sword on the streets to treat your illness? Do you know what a Imperial Sword means to her? If you can give her happiness, then marry her! "I can't afford it, get lost as soon as possible!"
Fang Yu's palm that was hidden in his sleeve suddenly clenched into a fist, just as he was about to turn around, Ling Shuang stepped forward and pushed away the sword in his hand and coldly looked at him: "Hu Li, you don't need to care about my matters!"
Hu Li looked at Ling Shuang in disbelief, the phoenix eyes that he had dreamed of countless times were extremely cold, and he couldn't help but stagger a few steps back.
"Ling Shuang, you have only known this brat for a few days? I've known you for six years! "How can you …" A hint of sadness and despair which appeared in Hu Li's eyes softened the depths of his heart.
She could not help but laugh bitterly to herself. In fact, she got to know Fang Yu much sooner than she did the baffling Hu Li!
"Hu Li, no matter what happens, I have already married and become a woman. I also hope that you can find a person you like, so we don't need to pester you anymore, right?"
"Fang Yu, if you are a man, please come out and fight with me for three hundred rounds!" Hu Li stared at Fang Yu in anger. No matter how heartless Ling Shuang was, he could not bring himself to hate him.
Ling Shuang knew that she must not let anyone else know about her identity as someone who knows martial arts. Otherwise, all of their plans in the Fang Family would go out of control.
Hu Li stared blankly at Ling Shuang who was standing in front of sher, her pursed lips trembling slightly. Then, he suddenly turned around and punched the peach tree, leaving a trail of blood on the tree trunk.
Ling Shuang was startled, she gritted her teeth and ignored him. Hu Li could be a brother that goes through life and death together, but he would never become a lover.
"Eldest Miss," Cha Zi and Yan Hong galloped over on their horses. After seeing Hu Li, they were slightly startled, but they did not care about anything else and directly dismounted their horses to speak to Ling Shuang, "The Wei Gonggong, the head of the palace, is waiting for you there. Please enter the palace immediately.
Ling Shuang's phoenix eyes slightly perked, and even the sulking Hu Li turned around. In the end, he still said in an extremely awkward tone, "This trip to the palace must be to ask about you selling your swords on the streets, so you should be careful."
Ling Shuang looked at Hu Li's eyes that were filled with worry, and could not help but secretly sigh. Then, he mounted his horse and rode off together with Fang Yu.
Fang Yu and Ling Shuang were riding together, their expressions extremely ugly. Ling Shuang was tightly wrapped in his embrace, so she didn't dare to anger this guy.
What happened today was indeed something that she did not clarify with Fang Yu. She only told him to pretend to be sick in Fang Family.
"Fang Yu, I will enter the palace. Wait for me at home."
"…" Fang Yu pursed his lips and did not answer.
"Fang Yu, what I mean is, you should go home first …"
"Continue feigning illness?" Fang Yu took a deep breath, and gritted his teeth, "Ling Shuang, I know what you mean by that, but I do not need you to show me your face, and make yourself look so lowly, and even make fun of your father's Imperial Sword, or even borrow the strength of the world's public opinion to coerce Emperor, do you know the consequences?"
Ling Shuang laughed indifferently: "Fang Yu, do you think I am the kind of person who would sit still and wait for death?"
Fang Yu was startled.
Ling Shuang looked at the ten li of peach blossoms and slowly said: "I, Ling Shuang, am also a vengeful person! Southern Garden owes me a debt of disgrace, moreover, I am not a rash and reckless woman. You have a hatred that you can't let go of, and I have one, that's all. "
Fang Yu's body trembled. He sighed and said, "After entering the palace, be careful. I … "I'll wait for you at home."
Before Ling Shuang could even return to the Fang Family, she was caught by the anxious Wei Gonggong halfway through the palace before she headed straight for the Heartrest Palace.
Just as he entered the hall, he saw his father-in-law, Fang Xiu Wen, kneeling at the entrance of the Heart Nurturing Palace. Ling Shuang thought that the Emperor was much more nimble than he had imagined, it seems like the grudges in the capital had taken effect.
"Emperor, Fang Family has arrived."
"Enter!" Emperor Chengping's voice was full of annoyance.
Ling Shuang did not panic, she had never been unprepared for a fight, she was clear who the slap would land on. However, the current Emperor was someone who cared about face the most. After his mess today, Fang Xiu Wen's days were definitely not going to be good. He was in trouble, the Mrs Fang was even more upset.
The Emperor would definitely not punish him, if not how could he explain this to the people of the world?
Ling Shuang steadily walked in and saw that other than the Emperor Chengping, there was also a young man wearing a purplish-gold embroidered double-ringed robe standing on the other side of the dragon's table. The jade crown embedded with the Eastern Pearl further accentuated the noble and elegant look on her face. It was indeed the Great Yan Dynasty's Crown Prince, Long Chen Yi.
Long Chen Yi was highly anticipated by the Emperor Chengping and had been sent to Mount Kunlun to learn martial arts since young.
He had just returned from his travels to gentleness when he bumped into such an interesting matter. He had heard of General Ling's fame, but he had never met him before. I never thought that I would be so clever as to do something to my royal father. There aren't many people that can make my royal father go crazy like this today.
Ling Shuang looked down, not caring about the scolding eyes of the Emperor Chengping and the scrutinizing eyes of the Crown Prince's highness. With a calm and composed expression, she knelt down and kowtowed, "This humble girl, Ling Shuang, greets Emperor!"
Ling Shuang kowtowed, "Reporting to Emperor, my evaluation is too high and no one is interested in it."
Long Chen Yi could not hold it in and almost laughed, he quickly controlled his expression and bowed. He didn't look at the father's extremely interesting face, but instead thought that this woman was truly interesting.
Thinking about how he had traveled all over the world, and had never seen a woman like Ling Shuang, a great general who dared not to wail at night when she was only a mere child, had actually had such a cute, rogue side to him.
