Consort Ling Yue, King Troy’s order was for you to leave Troy City . It is an absolute order . If you choose not to return, I will have to resort to using force . Troy City is an extremely dangerous place at the moment . Whether it is out of consideration for you or Princess Liu Yue, you must leave Troy City . ”

Ling Yue gripped the half-remaining stocking in her hand with a light grip . She seemed as though she wasn’t paying any attention to what Tanya was saying . Tanya sighed to herself when she saw Ling Yue’s look . It was just as she thought; Ling Yue reacted similarly to the White Deer King .

“I really can’t stand that woman . I can’t tell if this is her caring for me or not . A woman giving this to another woman is a blatant provocation! Not even I can be nonchalant upon receiving this! She’s a mere human; what’s she acting haughty about? I was just slightly later than her; else, I wouldn’t be a mistress!” Ling Yue stood up in a fit . She threw the stocking into the fire .

Tanya reacted with shock . She, too, was a female, but she couldn’t understand the meaning of the stocking . To her, it was just a keepsake used for proof . She didn’t perceive there to be any problem with the stocking . After all, only the King would use his consort’s stocking .

“Let’s go back to square one now . I’m sorry, but I wasn’t listening to you . Nier went too far . What’s she trying to achieve, provoking me with a stocking with my husband’s scent on there? Forget her for now . What exactly was my husband’s order again?”

Ling Yue sat back down next to the fireplace . She looked at the stocking that had almost been totally burnt still feeling somewhat irate .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

“Consort Ling Yue, King Troy’s order is for you to leave Troy City, and it is an absolute order .   Should you choose not to return, I will have to resort to force if you refuse . Troy City is an extremely dangerous place at the moment . Whether it’s out of consideration for you or Princess Liu Yue, you must leave Troy City . However, when I entered the city, I noticed that n.o.body was allowed to leave their homes . Were you the one who gave that order?”

“Mm, indeed . I forbid anyone from leaving this city . They must wait for my husband to arrive, which is why I can’t leave, either . This was an order that I gave to everyone . I wanted everyone to calm down . If I leave now, my order will become me abandoning them and fleeing on my own . That will only plunge more people into panic . This city belongs to King Troy, my husband; therefore, I must protect this city . ”

“Your Majesty, King Troy’s gave an absolute order, which was for you to leave . He emphasised that you must take Liu Yue with you . It is extremely dangerous at Troy City at the moment . If you do not leave, I will have to get physical . ”

Ling Yue nonchalantly shook her head . A curve came to her lips: “Tanya, I really like you and would hate to hurt you . If you want to use force, I doubt you can defeat a huge fox, right? Right now, I have Miss Ying and Miss Shusia . I’m sure I’ll be safe . Furthermore, I can protect my own daughter . This is my husband’s city, which also makes it my home . I refuse to leave . I believe that my husband won’t immediately attack the city . Everyone will welcome him . ”

“Let me leave to report to His Majesty if nothing else, then . ”

“You don’t need to leave . His Majesty is coming closer and closer as we speak, which means that it’ll become more and more dangerous . From now, you just need to focus on protecting me . ”

Ling Yue stood up and rubbed Tanya’s head . Ling Yue then went to the bed to look at Liu Yue, who was sleeping . Quietly giggling, she stated, “Liu Yue is fond of this place . Such lively streets and a city would be more fun than being in a manor, right? She is a kid, after all . That’s why I can’t leave this place . This place must be protected . In the future, I will bring Liu Yue here to enjoy the hot spring . ”

“Are you sure about this? It is dangerous here . If any riots break out here, the imperial palace will be the main target… To add to that, I think His Majesty will harshly reproach me for failing to complete the task he a.s.signed me… Should any mishap befall you, would I not lose my home…? His Majesty is my final home . ”

Ling Yue lingered for a moment then solemnly looked at Tanya . She pulled Tanya into her embrace . Tanya stiffened up . Ling Yue had a really nice fragrant on her . Nevertheless, she had the smell of an anthropoid’s fur on her . Normally, Tanya would instinctively switch to a tense and apprehensive mode as soon as she caught the smell . This time, to the contrary, she strangely felt cosy and happy . She leaned into Ling Yue’s embrace similarly to a child snuggling up in their mother’s embrace .

“It’ll be all right, Tanya . Regardless of what happens, as long as you don’t leave, I won’t let you leave . You are a guard who protects my husband, and you are also the saviour of Troy City that time . No matter if it’s me or my husband . You’re our hero . As long as you’re alive, we will never abandon you . We will always be your family . ”

“Consort Ling Yue…” Tanya’s voice was slightly shaky .

Voice suddenly turning colder, Ling Yue muttered, “Plus, I have a load of rage that I want to throw on him . Does he really not know what this means? What’s he trying to suggest, sending me Nier’s stocking? I went through so much effort to help him, only for him to repay me with this? How outrageous . After this matter is settled, I’m going to give it to him . ”

Despite it having nothing to do with Tanya, she could feel the cold murderous intent from within Ling Yue’s marrow . She could see that Ling Yue was absolutely infuriated after receiving that “gift” .

“Is that thing really a provocation that women can’t tolerate?” wondered Tanya .

Current time outside the room .

Ying and Shusia extended out their arms to stop the maid who was attempting to enter: “Sorry, without Miss Ling Yue’s permission, n.o.body is allowed to enter her room . ”

The startled maid looked at the two swords that were still sheathed but at her neck . Ying deftly took the tray carrying midnight snacks from the maid: “While you’re at it, tell the others that, henceforth, food must be delivered half an hour earlier . While you’re at it record the name of the chef . When you bring food over, you have to eat a portion of it as a security measure, understood?”

“Ah, Y-Yes…”

The maid trembled as she stepped back . She then quickly ran off . Ying placed the food down . While she was at it, she picked up a portion to eat . Shusia smiled: “You sure are serious, huh, Ying . ”

“His Majesty gave my sister a pair of eyes . I will never forget his kindness . For that, I will forever earnestly protect them . ”
