Chapter 121 - Commitments

"Go inside and rest!" I'll cook. When daddy comes back, we can start eating. "

The young girl happily took the rabbit into the kitchen. Emperor Ming covered her wounds and sat cross-legged on the grass in front of the door as she began to recuperate.

However, his injuries were too severe. He didn't know when he would recover from his internal injuries.

He no longer had anything on him, even his talismans had been lost. Even if he wanted to send someone to protect himself now, it was impossible.

Who knew if they'd betrayed him? He couldn't trust anyone anymore.

A fierce look flashed across his eyes.

When the old man returned in the evening and saw the young girl and young man organizing the medicinal materials, he couldn't help but lightly nod.

"Father, you're back!" The young girl took the medicinal plant from her father.

The Emperor Ming trapped the organized medicinal herbs together, making it difficult to do all of these things for him.

His father couldn't help but look at the young girl and then at the man, feeling happy in his heart.

"Father, we have something delicious to eat tonight!" The young girl picked up the dishes and served the dishes.

The man looked at the nest in the girl's hand and frowned. There were wild vegetables inside, so how could he eat them?

It had been a long time since the young girl and her father had eaten meat and meat, and the food was especially sweet.

Emperor Ming found that the young girl and his father cherished that brat very much, and they left it for him to eat.

For the first time, he found out that the commoners ate this kind of food every day. Not only that, they didn't even want to eat it.

He felt a tinge of guilt in his heart.

"Dad, where can we sell medicinal ingredients?" Emperor Ming asked in a deep voice after the girl cleaned up the dishes.

His father, who was collecting the herbs, suddenly stopped. He knew that this young man was not going to stay here any longer. It was a pity for his daughter.

"We only have medicinal herbs when we go to Lin Clan Manor, but..." "Where are the herbs that are extremely expensive? They're not something that an average family can afford!" The old man looked at the man and slowly said.

Emperor Ming slightly nodded his head, "Father, I want to go to Lin Jia Village. My injuries are too severe, ordinary herbs may not be effective."

"But, even if you go to the Lin Family Manor, where do you get such expensive medicinal ingredients? You still don't have the money!"

His father still voiced out his worries.

The man touched a jade ring on his finger. This ring was given to him by his father. He had always worn it by his side, so perhaps he could only use it to exchange for herbs.

"Trouble, dad will accompany me to Lin Jia Village tomorrow."

Seeing that the Emperor Ming had made up his mind, her father could only silently nod his head. Seeing that the young man was about to leave, the young girl's expression slightly changed.

Emperor Ming raised his eyes and looked at the shy girl at the side.

He had seen many women, so how could he not know what this young girl was thinking?

"If... One day, I'll send someone to pick you and Dad up. "If there wasn't such a day, I might not be living in this world anymore …" He did not know that he would actually make such a promise to this young girl that he was not really interested in.

If he could regain the throne, he would naturally be able to repay their kindness. If not, then he might have already been killed.

He already knew about the cruelty of the royal family.

The young girl raised her eyes to look at him and nodded slightly.

His father nodded slightly. He could already feel that this person was not an ordinary person. Even if his daughter couldn't be a proper wife or concubine, it would still be better than marrying an ordinary person for a lifetime.

After receiving Emperor Ming's promise, the young girl was even more concerned about the Emperor Ming than before.

Emperor Ming looked at the young girl who was busy helping him, and lightly grabbed her hand and pulled her into his embrace.

The young lady could feel the Emperor Ming's body trembling. He was only relying on his heart's energy to support him, just like how he used to steal the throne from the people around him. It was only then that a woman would not abandon him, and only now did he understand just how important that was.

The next day, his father and Emperor Ming went to Lin Jia Village. The young girl stood at the entrance of the courtyard and watched them walk further and further away.

The Lin Family Manor was located at the border between the Barbarians and Yan State, and was the most prosperous place here. Not only were there Yan State's people doing business here, there were also Barbarian people.

Emperor Ming touched the jade ring on his finger and walked towards the pawnshop with his father.

Just as they were some distance away from the pawnshop, they saw a palanquin coming from the other side. Several servants followed beside the palanquin. These servants were extremely arrogant, and they punched and kicked the passersby.

"Scram! Scram! Can't you see Miss's palanquin?" Some of the passersby who were slow in dodging were immediately knocked to the ground.

"Be careful!" The old man protected the Emperor Ming, but he himself fell into the hands of the servants, who raised their fists and beat him up: "The old man won't die, have your eyes grown to the back of your head?"

"Stop!" Emperor Ming grabbed his father.

Seeing that someone stopped him, the servant couldn't help but angrily rebuke, "Where did this guy come from? He dares to block my path? Do you not want to live?"

"Don't provoke them, they are members of the Lin Family, we cannot afford to offend them!" The old man pulled at Emperor Ming, begging for mercy towards the servants, but the servants would not give up, they raised their hands and charged towards Emperor Ming, and the Emperor Ming grabbed onto their wrists.

This was the first time Emperor Ming had been bullied like this, he did not know whether to laugh or cry, and he was even an unranked scoundrel.

He was being bullied by a dog.

That servant was quite vicious. Seeing that he could not defeat the other party by himself, he called for the others to join in the fight.

Although Emperor Ming was injured, but for these small fry, he was still generous enough to beat up those servants and make them vomit blood in a few rounds.

"Impudent, who are you?"

Putting down the sedan, a beautiful woman walked out from inside. Although her clothes couldn't compare to the noble ladies of Yancheng, they were definitely not bad either.

A light colored muslin that was as thin as a cicada's wing dragged on the ground. It wrapped around her graceful body, causing the surrounding men to be unable to help but stare dumbfoundedly.

Her appearance was also pretty, with slender red phoenix eyes and alluring limpid eyes. It was enough to make people unable to look at her.

However, there were a few traces of flirtatiousness in her beautiful appearance, and her lips were too charming.

Emperor Ming didn't act like the others, he merely gave her a bland look. This kind of trash, was previously unfavoured in his harem, his concubine wasn't beautiful like the others, but had the beauty to topple nations, even he himself was.

Lin Yuyue was a proud and domineering person in the Lin Clan Village, adding on the fact that she was beautiful, normal men would not pay any attention to her, and upon seeing someone actually dare hit their servant, they were already angered, but the moment their eyes met Emperor Ming, they were stunned.

She had seen women in the outside world, but she had never seen such a good-looking man.

Although it was just a piece of coarse cloth, its eyes were sparkling and dazzling. They were even more beautiful than hers. Although there were a few scars on its skin, it did not hinder its devastatingly beautiful beauty.

Only now did she know that the term 'devastatingly beautiful' wasn't excessive at all. This man was simply too dazzling. Not a single one of her faces could compare to him.

Lin Yuyue couldn't help but to think as she stared at the Emperor Ming, causing her pupils to unconsciously crease.

If the young girl in the mountain forest was so infatuated with him, and even moved him a little, then this seductive woman, when looking at him, made him feel a sort of disgust.

Seeing that the Emperor Ming was not paying attention to her, Lin Yuyue became even more interesting, laughing: "Forget it, in the future, you all are not allowed to bully others, hurry up and apologize to this Young Master."

There were many people in the Lin Clan Villa that knew of Lin Yuyue's nurturing and upbringing, and now that they saw her attitude towards Emperor Ming, they could not help but discuss amongst themselves. Even their father's expression was extremely ugly.

Emperor Ming only wanted to quickly change the herbs and heal his own injuries. He was not willing to delay any further, he only nodded towards Lin Yuyue and his father, then headed towards the northern street.

His father raised his head and looked at Emperor Ming. This young man's appearance was too eye-catching, and even Lin Yuyue had her own thoughts, it was no wonder that his daughter, whose eyes were at the top, had her own thoughts.

"I'm afraid that Lin Yuyue will not let this matter rest!" Her father sighed heavily.

Emperor Ming was startled, and asked: "Why?"

"I'm afraid. "I'm afraid that Lin Yuyue has taken a liking to you. No one can escape from the people she has her eyes on …" The old man had difficulty speaking, but she still said it out loud.

Emperor Ming was slightly stunned and couldn't help but look at his father.

The old man laughed awkwardly: "The Lin Family is the strongest in the Lin Family Manor, they have connections behind the Yancheng, and I heard that the previous Emperor's concubine Lin is the Lin Family's first name."

Who would dare to provoke such a power?

"concubine Lin!" Emperor Ming was embarrassed, he did not think that the tactful concubine Lin would have a relative like Lin Yuyue.

The old man continued, "That Lin Yuyue loves to keep her noodles the most. The way she looks at you, she is unwilling to let it go.

His father's words made Emperor Ming feel extremely awkward.

There is such a shameless woman in this world.

The image of another girl suddenly appeared in his mind. She seemed to be very perverted as well. Every time she was with him, she would be the one taking the initiative.

The Emperor Ming couldn't help but smile warmly. He wondered how she was doing right now.

He felt that he had betrayed them. No matter what, they were still his women, and it was not for others to arrange their fates, so he had to get his hands on them.

The Lin Family Manor's largest shop was on South Street. Father and Emperor Ming walked to the entrance of the shop.

A pawnshop was a place to cheat since the ancient times. No matter how good something was, it would be worthless in their hands.

The shopkeeper with the goatee looked at the jade ring in his hand and kept wiping it with his sleeve. This was a really good item and it would definitely sell for a good price, but he had not seen such a good item in a long time.

Emperor Ming looked at the shopkeeper's greedy eyes and couldn't help but frown.

He wanted to bury the shopkeeper alive, as he used to do, but now he had to endure it.

"This thing isn't worth much money!" The shopkeeper looked at it for a long time and suddenly said something. It seemed that he wanted to lower the price.
