Chapter 42B: She Truly Didn’t Intend It
“Father’s Concubine, is this kind of nonsense something you should even say?” Luo Qing Luan was incensed. Sure enough, hitting a person when she’s down, but Luo Qing Luan didn’t expect that she’d always been unyielding, yet the teammate beside her was a swine, pushing people into the pit without regard for their life or death.
Afraid that she’d provoke the Princess’ displeasure, Wang Xue Ru hated Luo Qing Luan to begin with, so without the slightest hesitation, she stiffened her face. “Damned girl, a moment ago, you ran away on your own and didn’t accompany me. How would I know where you’d gone? If you truly took something from the palace, why don’t you immediately take it out without waiting for the search to reveal it. When we return home, it would be strange if your father doesn’t beat you to death!”
Becoming happier and happier, Nangong Wan’er lightly fiddled with a golden ring as she coldly smiled. “Luo Qing Luan, your father’s concubine* already said that. In the end, are you going to admit it or not? If you’re still going to deny……” The tone of her voice suddenly changed, adding to it a tinge of malicious intent. “Shuyun, you’re a girl and not strong enough. From my perspective, it’s better to have a few imperial bodyguards come and do the search. See if she still resist!”
Have the imperial bodyguards come to search Luo Qing Luan’s body? How wouldn’t this……
Once Li Shuyun heard this, she immediately laughed maliciously. “Princess is the one with the better methods. Have you guys heard clearly? Hurry and call the guards!”
This was the imperial palace. Besides the emperor and a few special individuals, no one dared to enter without notice. Even imperial bodyguards had to stay at a distance. Once the palace maids heard, they promptly ran off to call the guards.
It originally wasn’t a big deal. Even if someone deliberately looked for trouble, Luo Qing Luan had seen much and was already used to it.
But she didn’t anticipate that the princess surprisingly hated her so much and wanted to call the guards to come destroy her purity? If she was an ordinary girl, how would she have been able to resist those strong bodyguards, the aftermath could well be imagined!
She had been accommodating since the beginning, just because the other person involved was a princess. It’s better to avoid unnecessary trouble if possible, but since the other person refused the respect that had already been given to her, Luo Qing Luan would no longer be courteous.
“Does the princess truly want to have the imperial guards do a body search on me?” Luo Qing Luan’s face was as cold as frost. Not retreating, but advance instead, she took two steps towards Nangong Wan’er. As a rather oppressive force vigorously collided directly with her, Nangong Wan’er couldn’t help but take a step back. “What do you dare to do? I insist on giving you a proper lesson today, have you know what it means to be a superior and a subordinate!”
“That’s good then. Since it’s like that, I’ll thank the princess for your instruction.” Luo Qing Luan laughed faintly as her fingertips brushed. With the help of a turn of her body, she noiselessly concealed the split second hand motion from before, then returned.
“You still dare to talk back……” Without sensing at all that Luo Qing Luan did something, Nangong Wan’er even thought that she wanted to escape and blocked her at once. But she merely said a few words before she felt that something was wrong.
Why did her hands itch so much?
She subconsciously scratched a few times, but it would’ve been better if she hadn’t scratched. Following that, the itching simply became unbearable. From the skin, itching continually penetrated to the bones. Nangong Wan’er’s complexion changed greatly. How could she still pay attention to Luo Qing Luan? She directly lifted her sleeves away, yet didn’t see anything on her hands at all. Besides the red scratches made by her own fingernails, nothing seemed to be the least bit wrong.
“Itchy, so itchy……”
But this itching became more and more ferocious. Not only her left hand, even the right hand that she scratched with just now also started to itch, as if countless numbers of little bugs were crawling, which simply couldn’t be scratched away. It was so uncomfortable that she nearly wanted to bawl.
“Princess, are you alright?” Once Li Shuyun saw that something wasn’t right, she promptly came to lend a hand. “Where does it itch, may I see?”
Lifting up Nangong Wan’er’s spotlessly white wrist, she also didn’t discover anything and tried to help her scratch, wanting to help bring some relief to the princess. However, she merely scratched twice before she also felt that something’s not right. How come her own fingers also started to itch?
Was it possible that it’s contagious? How could it spread so rapidly?
She was immediately scared out of her wits. Li Shuyun also forcefully scratched. In but a moment, her hands were full of red scratches, but this was simply useless. The itching penetrated straight into her bones. Not only was scratching useless, instead, the itching became more and more ferocious. Within a short period of time, it even extended throughout her entire body.
“Luo Qing Luan, tell this princess, what did you do?”
Nangong Wan’er was both panicked and afraid. She was previously just fine. How did she suddenly started itching?
The corners of Luo Qing Luan’s mouth carried a smile while her eyelids didn’t blink at all. “Your Highness, I didn’t even touch you at all. How can this be something I’ve done? Moreover, how can I have such skills? Since Princess itches, it can’t be because you haven’t taken a bath for several days, so some bugs have grown on you, right?”
This was the itching powder that she hid in her bracelet. During this short period of time, she had been free, so she secretly blended all kinds of useful medicines, precisely to guard against different situations.
Now that it had truly become useful, it could be seen how much foresight she had. Luo Qing Luan found the situation amusing and resolved all the more to continue carrying these things on her body.
“You’re the one growing bugs on her body!”
Once she heard Luo Qing Luan’s scare, Nangong Wan’er panicked even more. Li Shuyun was also the same. With faces full of suffering; how could the two of them still remain reserved and dignified? They incessantly scratched their bodies, without the slightest bit of a dignified bearing. If they weren’t standing out in the open, perhaps they would’ve even taken off their clothes.
The itching powder certainly wouldn’t kill someone. At most, it caused them to feel unwell, maybe enough to scratch until they bled a bit, that’s all. It’s just that between these two people, one was a princess, while the other was a high born noble, both were people whose bodies were delicate and precious. She’s afraid they’d have to suffer a bit.
With a glance at Wang Xue Ru’s terrified face, Luo Qing Luan calmly declared, “Since Princess and Miss Li are to busy, I won’t keep you company any further. The two of you should hurry. Better to return for a bath and a change of clothes to avoid being seen in this state by people who are coming soon. I’m afraid that won’t be so good.”
After she finished speaking, she just left, regardless of how the other two people would react. Once Wang Xue Ru saw this, she promptly kept pace. Any crafty plans that she had before actually disappeared.
Originally, she wanted to leave the palace to quickly return to the General’s Mansion, but Luo Qing Luan didn’t expect that she barely drove away Nangong Wan’er and Nangong Qing appeared before her now.
Looking at Nangong Qing blocking the palace’s exit, Luo Qing Luan didn’t even have time to get on the horse carriage. She quite helplessly said, “Your Highness the Crown Prince, standing guard at my horse carriage, don’t tell me that you want to be my stablehand?”
