Chapter 20 — I Thought I Was A Serious Person, But I Didn't Know That's Not The Truth
Lam Thu Yen witnessed this scene with her own eyes and was so scared that she went crazy on the spot. The Queen Mother crawled over and hugged Ta Thuy An. He rolled his eyes, his body convulsed and spat out blood, his eyes full of resentment stared at the Queen Mother, reached out to grab her collar, and called out: "... Mother, I am a prince, mother..." As he finished speaking, he rolled his eyes and died. The Queen Mother cried bitterly. That crazy old man, Ta Hoanh, was also hacked to death by the Royal Guard. The smell of flowers in Thinh Phong Vien was completely obscured by the smell of blood. During that process, To Ngac and Co Thieu Vu both stood in front of me to protect me. It was not until the Crown Prince stepped forward that the two people dispersed. Ly Truong Diep reached out to me, only to realize that his hands were still stained with Ta Thuy An's blood. He took the handkerchief, wiped it meticulously, used the wine on the table to wash his palm, and then held my hand tightly in an irresistible way. I shivered, the two chirping children in my stomach also fell silent in fear. Ly Truong Diep's eyebrows widened, he smiled and said: "You scared me, my Crown Princess." I still haven't recovered from the series of horrifying truths just now. Ly Truong Diep raised his hand to caress my cheek: "Your face is so scared that it's pale." He clearly said this with a sense of sadness, but after hearing it, I felt goosebumps - after all, the hand that was touching me had just strangled a living man to death.
"Linh Thu, I don't want you to be afraid of me."
He held my hands tightly, they were rough and warm hands. Before, I thought the Crown Prince had golden branches and jade leaves, but I didn't expect the callouses from holding a sword and a pen on his hands to be so thick. His strength is so great that he can crush a strong man like Ta Thuy An to death with his bare hands. He is taller than To Ngac and whiter than Co Thieu Vu. He leaned close to my ear, the familiar and strong scent of Camphor penetrated through the scent of flowers and blood, surrounding all my senses - I remembered, the scent on To Ngat was possessed by the Crown Prince. We should have thought of it sooner. He whispered in my ear: "You two are scared too? Why don't you hear anything anymore?" My eyes widened, listening to the Prince's serious words: "The two children kept chirping for help in my ears, they called 'Dad, help me, help me'." Ly Truong Diep grabbed my hand and pressed it against his chest: "So I'm here." It turned out that the children's intuition was not wrong, among the three men at Lam Nguyet Lau that day, one was actually their biological father! I thought it was Co Thieu Vu, I thought it was To Ngat, but I didn't dare to think it was the Crown Prince! At the moment of danger, the children's telepathy was transmitted to Ly Truong Diep! Ly Truong Diep helps us piece together all the memories of the day at Ngoc Tuyen Mountain. That day on the mountain, he was ambushed and injured. While being chased by assassins, he encountered a group of mountain bandits sent by Lam Thu Yen. At the critical moment, it was my encouragement that caused two groups of people to bite each other, creating an opportunity for the Crown Prince to escape. When I hit my head on the rock and fainted, Ly Truong Diep carried me and ran away, but at that time he was hit by a hidden weapon, the hidden weapon was laced with a cruel beast drug. He used the Ho Tam Dan he brought with him to protect his life, but under the urge of the beast medicine, he lost his reason. In the cave, he only had his instincts left, and I was completely unaware. Waiting for the medicinal properties to subside, Ly Truong Diep stood up to look for help, but fell down the mountainside halfway, and was found by Co Thieu Vu and To Ngat and brought back to the Dong Palace.
"I was in a coma at Dong Palace for three days. After waking up, I couldn't picture her appearance. It wasn't until the moment I met her again at Lam Nguyet Lau that I realized it was her."
"I told Thieu Vu and To Ngat to help you."
Co Thieu Vu and To Ngac respectfully bowed to me. It turns out that's it. That day, Co Thieu Vu climbed the wall and sent a message saying he wanted me to rest assured, originally the Crown Prince wanted me to rest assured. To Ngat took my pulse five or seven times to keep me safe, saying it was his responsibility, but it turned out to be the responsibility assigned by the Crown Prince. Co Thieu Vu laughed cheerfully: "Miss Ha, in the future, if you have any problem, please ask me for help. Up to heaven and down to the sea, I wish to be a buffalo and a horse." To Ngat was still gentle and courteous: "Princess, His Highness has saved my life, his responsibility is my responsibility. From now on, I will bow my head and serve without hesitation." Turns out it was all because of the Crown Prince that they were so kind to me. I suddenly felt strangely disappointed —— my daughter's words of "taking it all in" had finally vanished into thin air.
