All Novel Full As for why all the candidates should be under eighteen, Master Lingtian thought he could mould younger people easier.
“Xue, what are you looking at?” Luo Qianqian sneaked behind Murong Xue and patted her shoulder.
Luo Qianqian had worked so hard to pretend she had forgotten what happened that morning, but she secretly found the way Master Lingtian fled away from her room adorable, ‘isn’t it cute that he was too shy to stay in the same room with me?’
Luo Qianqian found it cute and adorable was because her feelings towards Master Lingtian had changed from indifference to admiration, but she didn’t realize that the players couldn’t see through their own hearts as the lookers-on.
“Who are you, you peasant? How dare you to call Princess Eleventh by her name?” Murong Xue’s maid Lvlu yelled at Luo Qianqian, she stepped forward and stood in front of Murong Xue trying to protect her from any possible harm.
Murong Xue said in a sulk, “Kneel.”
Lvlu pointed at Luo Qianqian and she demanded, “Haven’t you heard that? Her Highness asked you to kneel.”
Feng Qing’s eyes were wide open, he knew this girl just put herself into deep trouble.
Luo Qianqian raised her eyebrows, ‘kneel?’
She had never heard such a ridiculous thing in her life.
Murong Xue shook her head, she pointed at Lvlu, “I’m asking you to kneel.”
Lvlu was transfixed, “Your Highness?”
No wonder Lvlu was dumbfounded, she had never met Luo Qianqian before, how could she know Luo Qianqian was the ‘sister-in-law’ that Murong Xue had been talking about.
Luo Qianqian was actually touched by how brave this maid was, she was doing this to protect Murong Xue, she caught hold of Murong Xue’s hand and comforted her, “Xue, she has no ill intention, she doesn’t know who I am, plus she is doing everything she can to protect you.”
Murong Xue was still not appeased, “Lvlu, open your eyes and remember, this is my sister-in-law, the princess of Prince Eighth, don’t you dare to be rude to her again, ever!”
Lvlu’s legs were shaking due to fear, ‘the princess of Prince Eighth’?
‘This girl in front of me is the princess of Prince Eighth that everyone has been talking about?’
‘What the heck did I do Her Highness?’
‘What would Prince Eighth do to me if he finds about this? Will I die?’
“I’m so sorry, Miss Luo, no, Your Highness, please forgive me for my outrageous behavior.” Lvlu kept apologizing.
Luo Qianqian downplayed it, “You are all right, don’t worry about it, you are a good maid.”
Lvlu shed tears of gratitude, “I thank Your Highness for keeping my humble life.”
Luo Qianqian was confused, “When had I mentioned about taking your life?”
Those ancient people were so weird, how could they talking about taking someone else’s life like floating leafs.
Murong Xue held Luo Qianqian in the arm and gave her an affectionate complaint, “Finally you are here my good sister-in-law, I thought you forgot about this.”
“How could I fail keeping my promise to you?” replied Luo Qianqian. “Have you applied yet?”
“No, I’m waiting for you, am I a good girl?” Murong Xue acted like a meek bunny in the presence of Luo Qianqian.
Feng Qing had got goose bumps hearing Murong Xue’s tone, he was curious this Princess Eleventh had always been a little trouble maker, but she was behaving sheepishly in front of Luo Qianqian, how strange!
“Of course you are. With no further ado, shall we?” Luo Qianqian dragged Murong Xue to the end of the line, yep, she didn’t want to jump a queue.
Murong Xue frowned, she planned to jump to the front of the queue like she had always been doing, but she decided to behave herself around her sister-in-law.
Feng Qing was taken aback, ‘Her Highness the Consort would be moved to tears of gratitude seeing that way Princess Eleventh behaved now, well, and also the way Prince Eighth behaved.’
The two walked to the end of the queue, there were about one hundred people standing in front of them.
Master Lingtian’s page named Shu Jian saw the two beautiful girls standing at the end of the queue, he narrowed his eyes and thought for a little while.
He cleared his throat, “The two pretty ladies in the back please come forward.”
Luo Yuyan and Luo Keer who were also in the queue just saw Luo Qianqian, they were about to throw some burning satire at her to make her quit when they found the girl who was standing next to Luo Qianqian was Princess Eleventh.
So they ditched the plan and exchanged a look with each other, grounding their teeth.
Their faces lit up when they heard what Shu Jian just said.
“Are you talking to us?” Luo Yuyan and Luo Keer asked coyly.
The two were obviously over estimating themselves, it almost bordered on having no self-knowledge in front of Luo Qianqian and Murong Xue.
Shu Jian shook his head and snorted, “Of course not. I’m talking too the two girls who are in the very end of the queue.” with that Shu Jian pointed at Luo Qianqian and Murong Xue in case someone else would take the wrong hint.
Luo Qianqian and Murong Xue asked with uncertainty, “us?”
Shu Jian beamed, “Yes, pretty girls like you two are privileged enough to jump the queue, please come forward.”
Luo Yuyan and Luo Keer’s feces fell, they cursed Shu Jian in their hearts for being blind, they thought they outshone Luo Qianqian and Murong Xue for sure.
Murong Xue laughed out loud, “The Second Lady and The Fourth Lady, would you like me to buy you a mirror?”
Murong Xue knew these two girls had been bullying her sister-in-law, so she knew there was no need to disregard their feelings.
So she was saying that to score them off on her sister-in-law’s behalf.
Since the satire was from Princess Eleventh, Luo Yuyan and Luo Keer could only lower their head and listen. Both of them flushed tomato red.
Luo Qianqian didn’t want the situation to be elevated, she dragged Murong Xue forward and whispered at her ear, “No need to talk to them, the page is calling us.”
“Good point, sister-in-law.” Murong Xue chuckled.
Luo Yuyan and Luo Keer were both green with envy, it baffled them why Princess Eleventh would treat that stupid Luo Qianqian like a real princess.
The two suppressed the towering rage simmering in their hearts, how they wish theu could give Luo Qianqian a good beating.
“Look at the two ladies from the Prime Minister Mansion, they seem to have a good opinion of themselves, the page wasn’t even talking about them.” the crowd burst into laughter.
Luo Yuyan and Luo Keer had never been made fun of in their entire lives, Luo Yuyan went furious hearing the sarcastic comments, she buried her head and told her maid Hong Yu to keep an eye on who was making fun of her.
Soon Luo Qianqian and Murong Xue filled in the forms of application, Shu Jian didn’t know who they were, he just wished the two good luck and extended the good wishes to them.
Murong Xue expressed her thanks to Shu Jian and said, “We will definitely work hard to impress Master Lingtian.”
