2286 The Troublemaking Fourth Duan
“Harness swallowing wolves. They’ll be more steady.”
“Yes, Your Highness!”
Everyone watched flabbergasted at the three black wolves the size of calves that were baring their fangs.
U-Using them to pull the carriage??
Duan Yue darted out from the carriage and stroked one of the swallowing wolves’s black glossy fur. He said with a grin, “Do your job well. If you jolt the carriage, watch out for your skin.”
!!
The three depressed swallowing wolves shook their bodies at these words and promptly pumped themselves up.
Such a terrifying human…
“Your-Your Highness!” Yuanzhen stammered, “Y-You really have to go to Fengyuan Gate like this?”
“Why can’t I?” Duan Yue furrowed his brows. “Aren’t we going to hunt spiritual beasts? If they’re afraid of three swallowing wolves which are mere mystic beasts, they might as well stay as aristocrats at home.”
Yuanzhen exchanged glances with an elderly nanny next to her and sighed.
His Highness… was raring to stir up trouble!
Duan Yue sat back inside the carriage, and his chilly voice was transmitted through the thick curtains. “Let’s set out.”
*Rumble, rumble…*
The carriage wheels made m.u.f.fled noises under the rising sun.
Besides this, there was also the sound of silent footsteps trailing behind the carriage in the thick snow.
The close attendants of His Highness the Chen Prince were all feeling a bit crushed right now.
His Highness… was totally intending to stir up trouble. When they got to the Fengyuan Gate later, wouldn’t it cause a panic?
“Zhongting Guard’s young general Ah-Nuo is reporting for duty!” A bright and peppy voice announced under the morning sun.
“Your Highness, Ah-Nuo will be fully in charge of your safety during this winter hunt!”
“Stay away from me.” An icy voice instantly stunned Ah-Nuo, whose merry mood turned into confusion.
“A stink of powder and makeup,” Duan Yue commented in distaste.
The young soldier called Ah-Nuo froze and hastily sniffed: What smell of powder and makeup?
“Don’t think that this prince can’t do anything to you just because you are one of the Minister of the Left, Wu Yong’s, people! After so many tries to approach me, this prince will take your life if it happens again.”
The young soldier’s face fell. Ah-Nuo caught up to the carriage and asked loudly, “Your Highness, when did you find out?”
Duan Yue did not say anything.
Ah-Nuo chased after him and shouted, “Ah-Nuo does not think I showed flaws!”
“Throw them out.”
“Yes, Master.” Shadow appeared next to Wu Nuomei. He picked her up and threw her out.
Duan Yue felt his mood turn better after things returned to quiet again.
This fool. He had already seen through her ident.i.ty that time she cross-dressed as a man and stood alongside her father Wu Yong outside the imperial ancestral temple.
Was she sure she wasn’t making a joke by thinking she had revealed no flaws?
Wu Nuomei, who had been thrown flying, hung from the wall. After flipping up and sitting at the top of the wall with great difficulty, she waved her hand at Duan Yue’s entourage. “Your Highness! Your Highness! I truly did receive orders to protect you!”
“His Highness does not need a woman to protect him!”
“What’s wrong with women??” Wu Nuomei jumped off the wall indignantly and chased after the junior eunuch Xiao’ke’zi. She barked, “If you have the guts, come and compete with a woman?”
Xiao’ke’zi immediately shrunk behind Yuanzhen.
Don’t be kidding. You want him, a normal person without the strength to truss a chicken, to fight with Eldest Young Lady Wu?
