Chapter 4 — In Rebirth, I Won't Save Thanh Mai Anymore
That's right, I am referring to him: he has the appearance of an emperor, I am willing to do my best to assist him in winning the throne. The third prince was silent for a long time, then suddenly looked at me with determined eyes:
“Little General Tiet has so much faith in me, I will definitely not disappoint my expectations!”
“Waiting for the day when my great cause succeeds, I will consider her a founding citizen, bestowed with high positions and royal fortune, with a decree engraved in gold forever.”
I nodded excitedly. The reigning Emperor has three boys and two girls: the First Princess, the Fourth Princess, the Second Prince, the Third Prince and the Fifth Prince. The second prince is the son of a palace maid, physically weak, weak-tempered, and completely lacking in imperial temperament. The fifth prince is the Queen's eldest son, the same mother as Princess Truong, but from a young age he was favored and became arrogant and arrogant. Only the Third Prince - the son of the Noble Concubine - is a man of martial arts and literature, handsome and extraordinary. But in his previous life, he was seriously injured twice when competing for the throne, leaving behind serious consequences. A generation of Minh Quan, not even forty years old, he left this world early. In this life, I must protect that true dragon son well. The third prince is truly the most outstanding successor, the assassin is like a shadow, his assassination never stops. Within a month, I disguised myself as a man and acted as his secret guard. Seventeen people died when the eunuch tried poison before meals, not to mention the poisonous snakes in the carriage, the poisonous incense in the room, the poisoned arrows in the narrow alley... That night, the Third Prince and the Le Ministry Lang had a party at a restaurant. After a few weeks of drinking, suddenly a beautiful dancer holding a pipa appeared at the door. She has glassy eyes and a sloppy demeanor. While everyone was still overwhelmed by her talent, that dancer suddenly pulled out a green-shining dagger from her sleeve and stabbed it straight at the Third Prince! I reacted extremely quickly, immediately jumping up to block him. The dagger stabbed deeply into my shoulder, I let out a soft groan, then immediately fell down, losing consciousness. When I woke up, I discovered I was lying in an unfamiliar room, my close maid Huong Qua was sitting next to me, her eyes red. Seeing me open my eyes, tears welled up in her eyes:
"That's great! Miss! You're finally awake!"
"That dancer is an assassin, with a Western poison on the dagger. If it weren't for the Third Prince's palace, there was a famous physician from the Western Regions as a guest, I'm afraid he would have never woken up again!"
I pretended to be scared and shrink back, my whole body trembling slightly. Huong Qua wiped her tears, brought a bowl of medicine to feed me: "Don't be afraid, young lady, this is the third prince's private hospital on the outskirts of the capital. His Highness said this place is quiet and suitable for convalescence, so he brought people here." Outside the window, the autumn rain poured down, I silently took the medicine, just hoping I would get better quickly. Suddenly, there was the sound of rapid footsteps outside the door. I only saw Toan Cong Cong next to the Third Prince with a pale face running over: "Young Master Ngoc! Young Master Ngoc, wake up quickly! Your Highness has been taken away by bandits!" I looked up in shock, the bowl of medicine in my hand made a "clack" sound and fell to the ground. Incorrect! In the previous life, the story of the weapon assassinating the Third Prince and the story of the bandits kidnapping the Third Prince were clear half a year together! Why are these two disasters so close together in this life? I took a deep breath and forced myself to calm down: "Toan Cong Cong, immediately take thirty thousand taels of silver, follow me to Long Tuyen Temple on Ngoc Truc Mountain to save people." Toan Cong Cong looked at me in surprise: "Young Master Ngoc, how did you know that His Highness was taken to Ngoc Truc Mountain?" I closed my eyes: "While I was in a coma, I had a long dream, dreaming that His Highness the Third Highness was in trouble. The fairy in the dream could not bear to let the dragon energy disappear, so he showed me the way, telling me to bring thirty thousand taels of silver to Long Tuyen to save the true dragon of heaven." Although Toan Cong Cong was still hesitant, he still obediently followed my instructions. Half an hour later, I supported the body that had just recovered from a serious illness and Toan Cong Cong entered Long Tuyen Temple, the staff led a group of martial monks to stop us. I shook the stack of thirty thousand tael silver bills in front of the staff: "Master Hue Tam, I am your highness's confidant, Young Master Ngoc."
“If you can let His Highness the Third Prince return safely to the palace, in addition to these thirty thousand taels of silver, tomorrow I will tell Duke Toan to give you an additional thirty thousand taels of silver snowflakes.”
"His Royal Highness the third prince is the most merciful. What happened today, I think, is because you were forced to do so. If you only let him go, in the future you will definitely be credited with saving the royal family."
Phuong Truong thought for a moment, the anger on his face immediately disappeared. He compassionately and gently accepted the thick stack of bills, ordered two martial monks to carry out the unconscious Third Prince: "Amitabha Buddha, the descendants of the heavenly family in the ancient temple are falling apart again, the little monk really can't bear to see any more. I hope the donor is careful Princess Truong, what happened today is because of you."
