Chapter 127: Reward
"Princess, you brought me into your palace, why haven't you come to see me?"
The person who said this was naturally Lin Muxuan.
Lin Muxuan was dressed in a white robe embroidered with bamboo. Because Lin Muxuan already had a feminine appearance, wearing such clothes made him look even more like a woman.
"I've just been a bit busy lately. Someone, go and fetch three bolts of silk and satin that I've acquired recently."
Upon hearing this, Green Bamboo immediately went to the storeroom and retrieved three bolts of silk and satin.
"I will bestow these fine silks and satins upon you as a reward, as compensation from me. I wonder what Mu Xuan thinks of this now?"
Lin Muxuan saw the three bolts of silk and satin, and he quite liked the patterns carved on them.
"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Highness."
Lin Muxuan even tried to walk up to Gan Luo and give him a massage.
Unexpectedly, Lin Muxuan was suddenly given a cold look by Lin Fengmian, and he immediately took a few steps back.
"Your Highness, why is Guard Lin looking at me like that?"
"Guard Lin is my personal guard, he is just protecting me."
Gan Luo could tell that Lin Fengmian was clearly jealous.
I found it quite amusing at that moment.
Gan Luo stood up, opened his folding fan, and pressed it against Lin Muxuan's chin.
Gan Luo then glanced at the people around him.
"You may proceed as you wish. I have something to say to him."
Upon hearing Gan Luo's words, the people around him naturally took their leave.
Lin Fengmian's aura was extremely low, which Green Bamboo and Jade Bamboo could clearly sense.
"Why do I feel that Guard Lin's aura is so cold?"
"Yes, yes, I share the same thoughts as you."
The two of them would glance at Lin Fengmian every now and then.
"I'm wondering if Lin Fengmian might have feelings for Her Highness the Princess?"
Upon hearing this, Green Bamboo immediately covered her mouth.
"Are you kidding me? How could this guard Lin possibly like Her Highness the Princess?"
"Why is it impossible? Look how kind Her Highness the Princess is to Guard Lin."
To outsiders, this is naturally what...
The two were talking when Kong Hong happened to pass by.
"These words cannot be said carelessly."
The two men heard Kong Hong say, "The commander's words are correct, we understand."
Kong Hong saw Lin Fengmian sitting on the roof beam, looking at the sky.
Kong Hong suddenly flipped over and sat directly on the roof beam.
Why such melancholy?
Upon hearing the word "melancholy," Lin Fengmian turned to look at Kong Hong.
"Is my melancholy easily noticeable to others?"
Kong Hong shook his head.
"That's not it, it's just that you seem a bit off right now."
"Do you like Her Highness the Princess?"
Lin Fengmian was surprised, not expecting Kong Hong to ask such a question.
In fact, even if Lin Fengmian had feelings for Gan Luo, Kong Hong thought it was perfectly normal.
After all, Lin Fengmian was still young, and it was perfectly normal for him to be moved by such teasing.
Unfortunately, Gan Luo's status and position were what they were.
Gan Luo was a princess of a country.
He was the most honorable person besides the emperor.
Her future husband will definitely be exceptionally capable.
Although Lin Fengmian was highly skilled, he ultimately lacked status, so how could he stand shoulder to shoulder with the princess?
"Commander, your words seem rather surprising. How could there be anything between me and this princess? I am merely a bodyguard by her side. My concern for the princess is only because I am a bodyguard."
In fact, Lin Fengmian himself did not understand his feelings for Gan Luo.
Perhaps it's because I've never seen a woman so obsessed with violence.
Or perhaps it was because a woman could endure so much pain that Lin Fengmian felt a sense of admiration.
"Even if you are in love with the princess, I think it is perfectly normal. After all, the princess is exceptionally beautiful and has a stunning appearance that is unmatched by ordinary people."
Otherwise, how could Gan Yanling have been so devoted to Gan Luo?
“You’re mistaken. I don’t like Her Highness the Princess; it’s only because Her Highness the Princess is my master.”
Seeing Lin Fengmian's repeated denials, Kong Hong stopped asking Lin Fengmian.
Meanwhile, in the courtyard.
"Your Highness, are you going to favor me?"
Gan Luo suppressed a smile and looked at Lin Muxuan.
"I won't fall for any of your attempts to outwit me here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Muxuan naturally returned to his normal appearance.
"As expected of Her Highness the Princess, she is indeed different from others."
Gan Luo looked Lin Muxuan up and down.
"I am quite curious about you. Why do you act so childish and willful in front of your father, but when you're with me..."
Unexpectedly, Lin Muxuan told Gan Luo.
"If I hadn't done this, I would have been killed by my brothers at home long ago."
It seems their relationship is extremely complicated, which is quite interesting.
"If what you say is true, then you have come to my residence seeking my protection?"
Lin Muxuan walked up to Gan Luo, and then knelt down on the ground with a thud.
"And there is something even more important: to become the princess's companion, the princess is as beautiful as a flower, and the princess is also exceptionally powerful. Which man in the world would not admire the princess?"
This person is truly eloquent. If it were any other woman, she would probably have already believed Lin Muxuan by now. But who is Gan Luo?
Gan Luo's journey has been far from easy, especially considering the many hardships he encountered in his previous life.
Do you also admire this Empress?
Lin Muxuan raised his head, his eyes filled with sincerity.
"Your Highness is right, they are all indeed the princess I admire."
Gan Luo used his mind-reading ability to check Lin Muxuan's inner thoughts.
At this moment, Gan Luo realized that Lin Muxuan really was...
However, the question of how Lin Muxuan fared in the mansion remains to be verified.
Gan Luo then let Lin Muxuan leave first.
Unexpectedly, Lin Muxuan refused and instead stood in front of Gan Luo.
Kong Hong naturally arrived at the princess's residence at this time.
The butler saw Kong Hong and gestured for him to enter.
Led by the steward, Kong Hong had arrived at Gan Luo's side.
Lin Muxuan remained silent after seeing Kong Honglai, having been talking to Gan Luo.
"Young Master Kong, how did your discussion with my father go?"
“My father is already at ease, so Your Highness need not worry.”
Kong Hong really wanted to know what kind of princess Gan Luo was.
Is it really as rumored?
