Chapter 95B Teaching Nalan Ye’s guards a lesson
The one called Yuan Xin was ridiculing, but he still lowered his head and said, “Yes, Lord Wang. Your subordinate understands.” Nalan Ye did place a lot of emphasis on this guard as he thought for a moment before saying, “Yuan Xin, once we return, send Young Miss Luo back to her residence. From today onwards, you will follow her. You are not to cause trouble and are to guard her wellbeing. If anything happens, I will hold you accountable.”
Luo Qing Luan was surprised when she heard it. She could tell at a glance that this guard called Yuan Xin was quite powerful. Otherwise, he couldn’t have been able to become one of Nalan Ye’s personal guards. She didn’t think that he would actually gift his guard to her, saying that it was to keep her safe? Could it be that she was actually in danger? Also, she was not used to having an unknown male by her side.
“No need...” However, before she had finished rejecting him, Yuan Xin was the first to speak out. His expression changed immediately, “Lord Wang, do you no longer want your subordinate?”
Nalan Ye replied, “How could I not want you? It is precisely because I value you that I have gotten you to take care of the future princess’s well-being during this period of time. Things have been happening in Yuan Shan, and you should know that things have not been safe recently. The safety of your future princess is of utmost importance. Nothing untoward can happen.”
Yuan Xin was still unresolved, “However, Lord Wang, your safety is even more important! Your subordinate cannot rest assured. If only Yong An accompanies you, your subordinate worries that something will happen to you. I plead for Lord Wang to rescind your order.” After speaking, he immediately knelt on the ground and requested with cupped fists.
“You...” Nalan Ye didn’t think that Yuan Xin would be like this. It was out of his expectations.
She never thought that another person would appear by her side, which was why Luo Qing Luan had rejected him. However, seeing that this person had completely disregarded her, she became angry again. If she didn’t want him, that was her issue. However, it couldn’t be because they didn’t respect her. If she had not paid attention to their gazes in the beginning, she may not have minded. However, she had very clearly felt that while Nalan Ye was concerned for her, his guards completely did not take notice of her at all.
Now that Luo Qing Luan thought about it, those two guards called Yuan Xin and Yong An had not even greeted her at all.
She was still the wife that Nalan Ye was going to marry back, as well as the future mistress of the household. However, these two guards had clearly disregarded her, showing clearly that they didn’t like her.
When she thought of this, Luo Qing Luan glared at Yuan Xin, then glanced at the rather elated Yong An. She said lightly, “Nalan Ye, I feel like you make sense. Why don’t I just take both guards. Right, I want the other one as well, can you bear to?”
The more they didn’t want to, the more she would insist on it. This was her personality. If others were good to her, she would treat them ten times better. However, if they just refused to respect her and treated her lightly, she could also let the other party suffer. Even if they were Nalan Ye’s men, she would make no mistake.
Initially, he still wanted to advise Luo Qing Luan to accept his bodyguards. Now that he heard this, Nalan Ye smiled, “How could I not? This Lord is worried that you don’t know any martial arts, and yet have no one by your side to protect you. It’s the best if you’re willing to. Yuan Xin and Yong An aren’t bad.”
The moment he heard what Nalan Ye, the initially rejoicing Yong An had on a crestfallen expression. He knelt down with Yuan Xin, saying, “Lord Wang, you can’t. How could your subordinates leave Lord Wang? We plead for Lord Wang to rescind the order!” This time, Nalan Ye didn’t even bother saying anything. His expression turned solemn as he said, “What? I’m asking you to protect your future princess. You dare disobey?”
“Your subordinates do not dare. We only plead to remain by Lord Wang’s side to protect you.” They replied simultaneously.
Nalan Ye’s expression had darkened by now. At this time, Luo Qing Luan laughed lightly as if she didn’t care about it, “Forget it. They’re not willing and I will not force them. If they fail to protect me, I would worry how they would fare until Lord Ye’s hands. I wonder whether or not he would punish you then. Since they have no skill or guts, I would rather not have these useless people by my side to save on the inconvenience.”
She had just spoken, but the expressions of Yuan Xin and Yong An, who were kneeling on the ground, darkened. They said lowly, “Young Miss Luo, please watch your words. We are guards of Lord Wang, not those wastrals who just accompany those ladies out to have fun and waste their time. The safety of Lord Wang is even more important. Young Miss Luo, as a lady, as long as you do not run over to the brothel like you did today, you should be fine.”
“Impudent! Yuan Xin, Yong An, how dare you talk to the future princess like that?” Nalan Ye was enraged as he said with an icy expression.
“There is no need to chastise them.”
Luo Qing Luan did not like them the moment she saw them, and had already decided to punish them. She said apathetically, “ All men treasure their lives and are afraid of death. They know that something will happen if they accompany me, so it’s natural for them to run and hide. Nalan Ye, you should know them well. There is no need to force it.”
After Luo Qing Luan accused them of being afraid of death and even called them wastrals, how could the most powerful two, Yuan Xin and Yong An be resolved?
Their expressions turned cold as they said, “I wonder what ability Princess has, that you humiliate us like this?”
Luo Qing Luan replied lightly, “You dare not protect a lady like me who doesn’t even have enough strength to truss a chicken. If you’re not useless, then what are you? You even have the face to ask.”
The both could take it no longer, raging, “Young Miss Luo, you can’t help but be rude.”
“For both of you who have no ability, do I still have to be courteous?” Luo Qing Luan glanced over them, saying, “For the both of you, I, this lady, can put you down anytime. Do you want to try?”
