Chapter 008: Thick Shade of Willow Trees, Fragrant Grasses and Smiling Flowers (8).

Axu? The injured area is hurting again.

The ribs near the chest are also injured, causing intermittent pain when swallowing, which is very uncomfortable to eat; I can't stand that Wu manager, clearly seeing that I have no appetite, but still poking around with a monkey face outside.

Axu's eyes swept uneasily over the slate ground. I thought he was about to show weakness, but suddenly he lifted his head, revealing a pair of ink-blue, clear and transparent eyes. "Miss, they are not lowly people, but ordinary folks with flesh and blood like us."

Go out! I dismissed Manager Wu and then instructed the maid to bring me medicine to apply to the swollen injury.

Steward Wu wiped his sweat and replied in a low voice, "Yes, sir... miss."

After tidying up with great effort, lazily supporting my waist, I went to the front hall for lunch, fully prepared and in high spirits, and then went to see my mother.

He looked up at me, as if pricked by something. His clear eyes immediately turned away in a fluster, even his face turned red.

Everything is released! Angered, I grabbed a jade hairpin that was about to be inserted into my hair and threw it to the ground, shouting, "Don't call me princess here! If people find out that it's the literary princess who is disturbing the peace, my elder brother will catch me and beat me up again!"

Hmm, what is this scoundrel thinking? Could it be that he remembers taking advantage of me when we climbed the mountain and now that I'm dressed in women's clothing again?

Those wounds... really hurt more when touched!

His face seems to be much thinner than mine, which gives me some satisfaction. So I couldn't help but mockingly say, "What's wrong, hero? Are you having those lowly people beg for mercy on your behalf?"

I became agitated and called him in, asking, "What's wrong with you again?"

After hesitating for a moment, Manager Wu accompanied with a smile and said, "Well... indeed a few lowly people were brought along to practice archery and slingshot with the princess."

Bring him in! I gritted my teeth and sat down on the Huanghuali double-dragon patterned armchair in front of the hall. I took the tea handed to me by the maid and sipped it slowly.

Upon arriving at the villa, I instructed the guards to take Axu to the stable and proceeded to my own room while supporting my jade crown. As I had my maidservant help me freshen up, Wu, the manager of the villa, approached me and asked if anyone had been captured at the foot of the mountain.

The guards and stewards that San Ge found for me, each one dumber than the next!

Steward Wu looked at me and chuckled, "Apart from those few lowly people, there is also a young man who was just caught by the miss today. Should we release him? They are all in the stable, and those few lowly people are begging for mercy for the young man!"

阿顼很快被推搡着进来 , 看来又给吃过亏的侍卫们暗整过 , 那头原来很是软滑的栗色长发有些凌乱 , 脸色也略显苍白 , 用长鞭缚住的手脚改用更牢固的牛筋索重新捆绑了 , 原来缚过的地方便在烟黄的粗布面料上洇出一层褐红。

I have suffered this loss unjustly, and it is ultimately a consequence of my own actions.

I stayed for a while and then remembered that the last time I came here, I found the mountain stuffy. I caused a commotion in the courtyard with a slingshot and a bow and arrow without arrows. Even Wu, the steward, shot at me twice. Although it wouldn't kill anyone, I'm in pain even from a fall today. They must be feeling just as uncomfortable with the bruises they caused me. That's why I thought of capturing a live person to be my target.

Miss Gong? Is there a Miss Mother?
