The Story of a Stroppy Princess

Chapter 35

Mo Wushuang laughed and said to the pretty Hua Yueling, “Ling’er, you really have a gift of gabbing . ”

“You are right! I am famed for having a venomous tongue . ” Hua Yueling referred her modern identity, “You can ask Ping’er for that . The well-behaved daughter of an eminent family is just for effect . But as I have no fame at all, I don’t mind showing the public my real disposition . ” Hua Yueling hurried to get back on track .

“Ling’er, you are badly hurt by the Third Prince . ” Mo Wushuang felt a slice of worry for her and thought she was hurt by deep love .

“Ha! Wushuang, you do not know me at all . I can take all stuff up and also put it down with equal ease, especially for the emotions . I was haunted before . And I also had no idea why I was so infatuated with that man for as long as a year . But, now that I have put it down, I will stand up again . I believe the other half that can match me is waiting for me somewhere . ” Hua Yueling was full of confidence and visions .

After a daze, Mo Wushuang served a cup of tea to Hua Yueling and said, “The Third Prince is not that bad, for just in his heart there is no room for another woman . ”

“That’s right! I admit that I am not good enough, but everything has two sides . Since he loves that woman so much, he should be responsible for her, rather than marrying me out of the order of the Emperor and then insulting me . That kind of man doesn’t deserve my love . Well, stop here, I am here to appreciate the handsome man and the well-known sword, not to spoil my appetite . ” Hua Yueling was enchanted by the tea and she praised instantly, “Nice tea . ”

“This is the superior Biluochun (A traditional Chinese green tea with a history of more than 1000 years) . If you like it, you can take some back . ” Mo Wushuang answered with a polite smile .

“Great, thank you . Ye You, remember to bring some for me . ” Hua Yueling ordered .

“Yes! My Lady!” Ye You twitched his lips and thought she was here for eating and taking .

“Ye You, only we three here, so don’t be so serious . Take it easy . Sit down and have a cup of tea . ” Hua Yueling rolled her eyes to Ye You, who was standing behind her . Never had she treated him as a servant, but he was just that unlovable .

Ye You used to be a secret guard, but the past five years had witnessed his changed temper . With no refusal, he came up and sat down straight, but he was still a little uneasy when looking at Hua Yueling .

Mo Wusuang didn’t treat Ye You as a servant either . He had already poured him a cup of tea . This man highly praised by the Third Prince must be someone out of the ordinary .

“Wusuang, on the wall are all the well-known weapons? You’re not afraid of their being stolen?”

“My lady, what is beyond you is that Tianjiu Tower means the safest place for those weapons . There’s really no need to send someone to protect them . ” Ye You glanced at Hua Yueling said coolly .

“It seems that brother Ye knows a lot about Tianjiu Tower . ” Mo Wusuang smiled brightly .

“Tianjiu Tower is famous all over the world . It’s hard not to be informed . ” Ye You smiled slightly .

“Don’t flatter each other anymore . You two really intrigue me to hit you . ” Hua Yueling rolled her eyes in a sulk . She wanted to know the truth, not hear bragging .

“My lady, the Tianjiu Tower is the most famous tower for traps . If someone intrudes in gratuitously, he will never get out . ” Ye You said the point .

“Uh, really? Why am I still sitting here ?” Hua Yueling said in surprise .

“I’m at home now . Do I need to be guarded against?” Mo Wusuang smiled and sipped the tea . His clear eyes were so charming .

“You are right . I know you are a master . Come on, take out the the Sword for Beauty and have a fight with me . ” Hua Yueling stood up . She could’t wait to see the sword .

“Alright! Wait a minute . . . ” Mo Wusuang left with a smile and turned to the corridor .

“Ye You, what do you think of his martial arts? Do I have a chance to win?” Hua Yueling asked Ye You at once stealthily .

“Well, I haven’t seen him fight with anyone . And Childe Mo’s aura was more introvert, so it was uneasy to detect . But his martial arts were acquired from Shaolin, and his skills should be very orthodox . Miss, you can . . . ” Ye You’s eyes were full of cunning .

“All’s fair in war, right?” Hua Yueling smiled at him .

“I absolutely believe in your ability, My Lady . But the problem is the soft sword alone is not enough?” Ye You can’t figure out how a person without internal power could use a soft sword, which equaled to piss on life .

“Ha ha, I’ll show you how I use the soft sword in a second . ” Hua Yueling snickered . And her smiled made Ye You frightened and he had no idea what she was going to do .

“Ye You, don’t you think Mo Wushuang is a little different ? He lives alone . ” Asked Hua Yueling .

“No, he seems to have a sister . ” As soon as Ye You had finished his words, he heard a woman’s laughter coming from the back window, and hurriedly went to have a close look .

At the Lantang River in the backyard on the Tianjiu Tower, a woman in white was playing on a swing between two willows . The hem of her white clothes was blowing in the wind, her long hair was as smooth as silk . What a fairy beauty . Clear laughter came from her, just like the sounds of nature .

Hua Yueling saw a white haired old man touching his white beard and looking at the woman not far away, but the distance kept her from seeing their faces clearly .

“Ling’er, This is the Sword for Beauty . ” Mo Wushuang came over with a silver sword .

“Wushuang, that’s your sister?” Hua Yueling asked, but she knew that he was an orphan .

“Yeah! I picked her up, but she’s dumb . ” Mo Wushuang’s words shocked Hua Yueling . She looked down in horror, for she had never thought that the woman with that clear laughter should be dumb? That was really unbelievable .

“She’s very happy now . And that’s Uncle Hong, who brought me up . ” Said Mo Wushuang whose eyes revealed kindness and warmth .

“Aren’t you brought up by Master Zhichan, the abbot of Yongling Temple in the capital city?” Hua Yueling asked with confusion .

“Master is the one who picked me up, but Uncle Hong is the one who really brought me up . ” Mo Wushuang said with a smile, then sent the Sword for Beauty to Hua Yueling and said, “Are you not curious about the Sword for Beauty?”

“Ha ha, I’m also curious about you . Wow! How beautiful!” Hua Yueling’s attention was dragged back, now she looked at this delicate sword carefully . She saw that the sword, even its scabbard, was as thin as a silkworm’s wing, looking like a silver belt . The dazzling ruby inlaid in the hilt of the sword was a real impressive touch for the whole sword and Hua Yueling was unwilling to move her eyes from it .

“This sword and its scabbard are both soft . It can be used as a girdle for women . This gem is the mechanism to untie the scabbard . ” Mo Wushuang reminded her .

“Really? That suits me better, ha ha!” Hua Yueling immediately buckled the Sword for Beauty around her waist . It was just so suitable . She pressed the ruby with her small hand, and the soft sword suddenly returned to its original state, breaking away from her waist and becoming a weapon . It was really delicate .

“Ling’er, if you have the ability to take it, then it's yours . ” Mo Wushuang was also itchy for he hadn’t fought for a long time .
