Chapter 127 The Woman Who Covets Prince Jing (Part Two)

Prince Jing raised his eyebrows and replied, "When you leave the Hall, I must follow you out. Then, everybody will know that I care about you and pay attention to your every movement. In addition, I'm afraid that tomorrow, rumor will spread that Yun Shang was jealous, so she left quietly before the party was over. And that Prince Jing was worried about her and followed her out, and tried to make her happy."

After hearing this, Yun Shang couldn't help laughing. She added, "If those people at Jinluan Hall knew that their respected and cold Prince could crack such a joke, they may be shocked. You are such a good actor. Tomorrow, I will send somebody to ask the owner of Chunhua Opera Troupe whether they need a leading actor. I think you will make a unique and popular actor."

Prince Jing took Yun Shang's hands and smiled faintly, "I'm afraid they are too insignificant to see me acting this way. But you're not satisfied. I'm not acting. Those people at the Hall are boring. I prefer to be here, and to accompany you. Now, it's comfortable to take a walk outside."

This wasn't the first time that Yun Shang had touched Prince Jing's body. However, he had never held her hands before. Yun Shang's heart beat faster. She forced a smile and thought that she wasn't accustomed to intimate contact with a man. When Prince Jing touched her hands, her first instinct had been to shake her hands free. Yun Shang sighed and tried to withdraw her hands. However, they were grasped more firmly. She could feel the calluses on his hands.

"I'm afraid they are not trustworthy. So, you must be careful. I have sent a shadow guard to follow you and protect you. If you don't feel right, just call." Prince Jing kept silent for a moment, and then he whispered, "I didn't tell you this, because I thought you might think I'm keeping watch on you."

Yun Shang nodded. She had realized that somebody was following her, and his or her knowledge of Kung Fu was high. Since this person didn't do anything harmful to her, she didn't give him or her a second thought. Now, she knew the reason for the presence of this shadow guard and Prince Jing's intention.

She nodded and answered, "It's fine."

Prince Jing knew she didn't trust him completely. However, he didn't want to point it out bl

er hair. She asked, "A riding and hunting competition? I'm afraid you might feel disappointed. I have never ridden a horse. Prince Jing once told me that women should be gentle and soft. Horse-riding and hunting are what men do to protect their country."

Yu'er stopped smiling and asked suspiciously, "Don't you want to ride on a horse with Prince Jing and enjoy the prosperity and beauty of the world?"

Hearing these words, Yun Shang blushed and said nothing. However, Qian Yin, who was standing beside, interrupted, "Prince Jing said that even though our Princess couldn't ride a horse, she would ride with him. Ta Yun, the Prince's horse, is a Ferghana horse. They can ride him at the same time."

Yun Shang frowned, turned and scolded her maid, "Don't be rude. I'm talking with Lady Cangyang, how can you interrupt us?"

Qian Yin's lips pouted slightly. She did a small curtsy and left.

Yun Shang smiled faintly and said, "I have spoiled this girl. Please forgive her indiscretion."

Yu'er shook her hand as she became angrier. She left a while later. Back at the inn, she was so angry that she shattered several teacups. She went to Qingsu and said, "Prince, Yun Shang is really annoying. No wonder her sister doesn't like her. Tomorrow, I will try to embarrass her in public."

Qingsu frowned and replied, "Tomorrow, you should follow my orders and act obediently. If you are not busy now, go and find the information I asked for. If you return without the news I need, you will not return to our country."
