Laka immediately said, âLin represents me, and what he says is what I want to say.â
Lin Yu chuckled lightly, âPrincess Monica, if you feel your status is higher than His Royal Highness the Prince, then please continue. However, I wonât listen since I follow the orders of His Majesty the King and the Prince, not the orders of a princess.â
Monica was furious to death, but since Busodi wasnât there, and she couldnât bother Busodi about them, she had to endure it.
âSo, you all are bullying me, arenât you?â Monica scanned the room and then said viciously, âI will go to His Majesty the King and tell him that you, a child, have no respect for me. You donât only prevent me from entering the palace, but you also summon many foreigners to trouble me. Too many foreigners in this country will sooner or later seize our power.â
âDonât include me,â Tan Rou said. âI was hired by your king to conduct research, and when my vacation is over, I will leave. As for the power you mentioned, I have no interest in it.â
Itâs really a ridiculous statement. Is Princess Monica also a frog at the bottom of a well? Can she only see the sky above her well and the small piece of land at the bottom? Would someone who can conduct research in another country do poorly in their own country?@@novelbin@@
Tan Rou and Lin Yu both come from families with status back home, they hardly covet the slight power of J country. Moreover, everything here is inconvenient; they would be foolish to stay here all the time.
Lin Yu still had a smile on his face, âPrincess, not everyone covets power, at least Miss Tan Rou and I do not. If we coveted His Majesty the Kingâs power, would His Majesty still keep us in the palace? On the other hand, it seems that Your Highness the Princess and His Royal Highness might have different intentions â¦â
He chuckled again, but didnât finish his sentence.
Everyone around started guessing, considering how imperious Princess Monica was, always putting on a grander show than the princess and the prince, could it be that she wanted to be the queen? Her intentions must align with those of Prince Busodi, who apparently has long been eyeing the throne.
Monica was so angry that her face turned red, and she charged at Lin Yu intending to hit him, âYouâre just a foreign servant employed by the king, what right do you have to speak here?â
Lin Yu didnât plan to dodge; he stood there letting Monica hit him, because as soon as Monica hit him, he could fake an injury to extort money from her.
Just as Monicaâs slap was about to hit Lin Yuâs face, Laka suddenly appeared. He slightly crouched and firmly received a slap from Monica.
Everyone was stunned, including Monica herself, who was so shocked she couldnât utter a complete sentence, âI ⦠I ⦠It wasnât on purpose â¦â
âOhâ¦â Tan Rou enjoyed the drama, âYou are done for, just now you hit Prince Laka, looks like you are going to jail.â After saying that, she didnât forget to ask Lin Yu, âMr. Lin, if someone hits the Prince, should they be imprisoned?â
Lin Yu cleared his throat and answered, âAccording to the laws of J country, assaulting a royal family member should result in a sentence of no less than three years and no more than ten years.â
Tan Rou revealed a smile, âYour Highness the Princess, looks like youâre off to jail.â
Monica defended herself, âI didnât hit him, he came closer on his own, and besides, Iâm his aunt ⦠we are family!â
âIn our country, there is an old saying, âEven close brothers settle accounts,â royal authority supersedes family ties, so since you hit the Prince, you are finished,â Tan Rou continued.
Monica quickly grabbed Lakaâs arm and said, âLaka, I didnât mean to hit you just now, you suddenly ran out, so I ended up hitting you.â
Laka said, âYou hitting my friend is like hitting me. Lin is my good friend and also my mentor. By disrespecting him, you disrespect me. And also Miss Tan Rou, she is a guest invited by His Majesty the King, disrespecting her is disrespecting His Majesty. You can explain todayâs events to His Majesty the King yourself.â
Princess Monica felt extremely unlucky; she had come just to attend a gathering, how could she have stirred up such a big trouble? And worst of all, Busodi wasnât here, if he were, he would never let her be bullied.
