Mad Crown Princess
Chapters. 10 - A Bandit
Two days later.
”Nona! Does Miss really want to leave the Palace?” fu Yiren who looked anxious after seeing Shu Qingzhi had stood at the front gate of the imperial Palace and was about to enter his chariot.
Shu Qingzhi who heard it was stunned. He looked puzzled as to why Fu Yiren was so worried about him. He nodded his head, a sign that he was going to leave the palace. After all, he was no longer wanted by these people. So, he better leave because he doesn't want to make trouble.
”Then let this waitress come with Miss! I will definitely not trouble Miss and will always help Miss no matter what!" Fu Yiren excitedly exclaimed.
Shu Qingzhi was surprised and immediately shook his head. ”... I'll go alone. You don't have to accompany me every time. Besides, I've been a lot of trouble for you.” he said slowly.
Fu Yiren who heard it looked moved. He continued to look at Shu Qingzhi with a sad feeling. ”... This servant will definitely send you a letter every day so that Miss is not lonely! But, this servant was very sure that the Princess would not be alone there. The Princess must have found a new person even better!”
Shu Qingzhi was speechless with his face looking puzzled and his steps getting further and further away. Unknowingly, he stepped on his own skirt making it fall backwards. However, the lucky Tao Sonyun swiftly restrained his back before he touched the ground.
”Can't you be careful even for a moment?” dao asked Sonyun who looked astonished for a while, Shu Qingzhi continued to look at him in bewilderment.
Then, suddenly Shu Yinzhi came over to the two of them and directly took Shu Qingzhi from him. It made Tao Sonyun surprised and he felt confused at Shu Yinzhi who initially hated Shu Qingzhi even to the point of expelling him from the Palace. However, after he knew Shu Qingzhi was really going to leave, his nature greatly reversed with that earlier.
Tao Sonyun clucked in annoyance and instantly distracted him. ”... Hmh! Labile once!”
Shu Yinzhi instantly made Shu Qingzhi stand up with both feet and said, ”Are you unable to use both your legs properly? Stop hoping someone will catch your back when you fall! After all, after this you'll be alone. So, do it all without wishing on someone!”
Shu Qingzhi looked at her in a daze and the look on her face seemed to ask, what's wrong with her?
Seeing that, Shu Yinzhi instantly turned his attention back and said, ”Enter into your carriage before the Emperor finds out about this!”
Shu Qingzhi was stunned. Shortly after hearing it, he curled his thin smile and said, ”... Thank you.” he said as he walked into his horse carriage without saying another word.
And shortly after, the horse-drawn carriage finally made its way to a remote village located far away in the imperial territory. ”... Your Majesty, you look very worried about that girl. Don't tell me you have a relationship with him? I've heard that in fact, the Empress gave birth to two male and female twins. Could it be, that girl was His Majesty's sister?” asked Tao Sonyun who was still standing next to him.
Shu Yinzhi immediately looked at him coldly and said, ”This has nothing to do with you. So, you better keep your mouth shut.” he said as he walked leaving him along with several other Eunuchs.
”The nature is the same as Yingge! Annoying and unassailable to talk to!” mumbled Tao Sonyun who looked annoyed.
An old eunuch walked up to him and said, ”Your Majesty! Princess 8th, Liu Hanning came to visit Her Majesty.”
”Hah?” sonyun's Taoist gaze turned disgusted upon hearing that. ”... Didn't I decide not to see her again?! Why did he come back here?”
”Sorry, Your Grace. The 8th Princess insisted on seeing His Majesty. He said there was something to talk about with His Majesty.” Kasim replied.
Tao Sonyun sighed and said lazily, ”Then, have him write it on a piece of paper only! Tell him I'm busy!”
The eunuch was surprised. And because he could not say anything more, he replied, ”Good, Your Majesty.”
At the same time, the horse-drawn carriage passed over a cliff that flowed a rushing river underneath. This was the first time Shu Qingzhi had boarded a horse carriage and passed through an unusual street. There were so many pebbles and stones that made the train sway. Unlike when driving a car on a smooth and flat road.
Shu Qingzhi knew what he was doing at the moment. If in the original manuscript he remains in the palace. However, this time he made it much different than before. When you are on stage, no one should be off the script. However, the author can do anything and even change the entire content in the story.
It was the same as pulling the main character down from the stage.
He opened the curtain of the carriage cover and asked the person in front of him, ”... What happened there?”
The old man seemed speechless as he saw a group of black-robed people blocking their path.
”Mr Princess! It seemed, there was a group of bandits roaming within the forest. I think I've crossed the wrong path.” replied the old man.
”So, yes?” muttered Shu Qingzhi who directly walked out from inside his carriage.
”Look! Who is approaching us!” said one of the bandits there.
Shu Qingzhi finally stopped walking a few steps in front of the bandits. He stared at the sharp blades held by them as well as the spears that were behind their backs. Once he saw it, he immediately knew that these were difficult to defeat moreover, he only brought five Palace warriors.
”They are used to surviving by plundering the treasures of the travelers. It must be very difficult to survive in such a way.” muttered Shu Qingzhi who noticed him.
”Hei! Missis! You're good too. Do you want your property to be safe so you decide to turn yourself in?” asked one of the bandits while walking up to him and touching his face.
Then, Shu Qingzhi quickly put it away and said, ”Your hand is so dirty! Better, clean up first if you want to touch me!”
”I don't think it's a problem if you have to have fun with a girl from this kingdom.”
”Wait a minute!” shu Qingzhi exclaimed who immediately turned to face the troops behind him. ”... You can go!”
One of the troops was surprised and immediately said, ”But, Miss! As the Prince said, we have to deliver Miss all the way to the destination.”
Shu Qingzhi was expressionless and replied, ”I know. That's why I'm telling you to go back to the palace. I've reached my destination.”
”But, Miss!"
”Go!” shu Qingzhi said once again. Then, among the troops there were those who said, ”Already, leave it. After all, we are not paid at all to do this.”
Hearing that remark, the troops finally moved back and returned to the palace leaving Shu Qingzhi along with the bandits earlier.
Shortly after independence finally left, one of the bandits moved quickly and directly pounced on him from behind. And fortunately, Shu Qingzhi was able to avoid it very quickly. ”... You are very impatient, yes.”
Without needing a second thought, Shu Qingzhi immediately took off her hair ornament which had sharp edges. After which, he again charged towards the man who was trying to pounce on him from behind. However, the man held him down with his big knife so the attack could not hit him.
Behind him, appeared several other people who directly pounced on him with a knife in their hands. And again, Shu Qingzhi used both of his legs to kick them all backwards. However, there was one person who moved from the side and directly injured his shoulder.
With a medium-sized stone, Shu Qingzhi directly threw it towards the bandit next to him until it bled. Then, in front of him came back the bandits who were about to attack him with a spear. He took off his shoes to resist the attack.
Not getting there, some other bandits began to move from behind so, making Shu Qingzhi forced to remove all his hair ornaments and throw them towards the bandits behind him.
However, his attack never hit any of them. He was eventually cornered and only fell silent in the same position.
Due to an opponent who was not comparable to him, Shu Qingzhi ran towards the ravine and threw himself into the rushing river. When it happened, he had seen a light from the eyes of an animal that he had never seen before finally, he was unconscious because his head hit the surface of the water.
