Chapter 381 Not Allowed to Leave

Lin Mengya pouted, and violently pinched Long Tianyu, who was smirking, with her small hand.

Since the atmosphere between them changed from embarrassing to ambiguous, the prince, who had always maintained a poker face, seemed to have vanished overnight.

Now he had learned to act shamelessly.

Especially when seeing the complacent smile which he failed to put away in time, Lin Mengya was even more indignant and bit Long Tianyu’s arm.

However, Long Tianyu’s solid muscles made Lin Mengya feel like she was biting a stone.

Unfortunately, she exerted herself to bite it. A moment later, Lin Mengya experienced the feeling which made her eyes suffused with warm tears.

“Ouch...”

Covering her front teeth with her hand, Lin Mengya was tearful and looked resentfully at Long Tianyu, who almost failed to hold his laughter.

“Are you OK?”

He looking at the little woman in his arms, distressed and helpless. After years of practicing martial arts, although he did not have copper skin and iron bones, the muscles all over his body were solid.

He didn’t know if she was alright after biting him so violently.

“Play for me teeth! (Pay for my teeth!)”

Lin Mengya covered her mouth with her hand and secretly complained that she was so unlucky.

There was no extra flesh on Long Tianyu’s body. She could neither pinch nor bite him. Thus, she could only stare at the man who wanted to show a complacent smile but didn’t dare to.

“Humph, just laugh. I’m not that narrow-minded.”

Since she was no match for him in strength, Lin Mengya could only attempt to kill Long Tianyu with her hard look.

However, Long Tianyu neither laughed at her nor said anything, but suddenly kissed her forehead lightly.

“Don’t bite me with your teeth next time, or they will be broken.”

The kiss as gentle as a feather made Lin Mengya freeze instantly.

It was rare that she even didn’t talk back to him who apparently sounded like teasing her.

“I’m leaving now. Go to bed early tonight.”

He touched her soft black hair. Despite his reluctance, he had to do what he should do.

“Wait a minute. I have something to discuss with you!”

After returning to herself, Lin Mengya remembered the proper business.

She stopped Long Tianyu in a hurry, and explained the matter of Prancing Dragon Herb to him in a low voice.

“You mean if we want father to recover sooner, we need to use Prancing Dragon Herb, the national treasure of the Nation of Lintian? Okay, I can write a letter and order a caravan to go there and get it, right?”

Suddenly hearing Lin Mengya ask to go to the Nation of Lintian, Long Tianyu subconsciously opposed it.

The relation between the Nation of Lintian and Jin State was good, and there were trade contacts between the two countries.

Nevertheless, Lin Mengya was just a weak lady. Without his protection, how could she arrive at the Nation of Lintian safely?

“You don’t understand the significance of Prancing Dragon Herb for Lintian State. If we only send a caravan there, it will be considered disrespect for their country. I had better go there in person. On one hand, I can divert myself. On the other hand, it’s neither too formal nor too casual for me to go there as a princess. So I think it’s the best solution if I go. What do you think?”

Long Tianyu was still shaking his head. No matter where he went, Lin Mengya’s safety would definitely become an important issue for him.

Moreover, over all dynasties, there were only princesses marrying into another country for cementing relations, but no princess sent abroad as an envoy.

“No, your safety can’t be guaranteed. I go on a tour of inspection because of the Crown Prince’s stratagem of luring the tiger out of the mountains. I can rest assured only if you stay in the mansion under the protection of your brother and the guards. If I allow you to travel around and anything untoward happens to you, how can I explain it to your father?”

Long Tianyu knit his eyebrows tightly, with his eyes full of disapproval.

But Lin Mengya was thinking hard. In any case, she had to persuade Long Tianyu.

“I’ve been a thorn in the side of the Empress Dowager and the Crown Prince. Even under protection, as long as you leave the Capital City, they can lay hands on me at any time. If I leave secretly and they do not know, I’ll be safer. In this vast world, how can they figure out where I’ve gone?”

Long Tianyu didn’t care much about the former words.

However, Lin Mengya’s last word made his heart tremble suddenly.

He remembered when she had just entered the mansion, she kept thinking about how to escape from him.

He wondered if she had dropped the idea now.

If she really left him one day, in such a vast world as she said, how could he find her?

Thinking of this, he felt flustered.

The strange uneasiness filled his heart.

What if she went to the Nation of Lintian and never returned?

Even if it was a hypothetical situation, Long Tianyu resisted it from the bottom of his heart.

“Rest assured. I’m from the Lin family anyway. The members of our Lin family can even fight on the battlefield, so it’s a piece of cake for me to go to the Nation of Lintian and ask for the medicine. Let me go, okay?”

Finding talking sense useless, Lin Mengya said pettishly.

However, Long Tianyu maintained a poker face with a trace of complicated emotions, that she couldn’t understand, in his eyes.

“I won’t allow it! You can’t go anywhere! As my princess, you have to stay in Prince Yu’s Mansion! This matter is off the table!”

Long Tianyu suddenly became much tougher.

Lin Mengya intended to defend herself, but saw him leave in displeasure.

“Hey! Long Tianyu, be reasonable, okay!”

Lin Mengya wanted to catch up, but saw him go faster and faster. Finally, with a ‘bang’, the door of Liuxin Courtyard was violently closed by him from the outside.

“From now on, no one releases the princess without my order. The princess can do whatever she wants, but is not allowed to get out of this yard!”

Lin Mengya listened to Long Tianyu’s order coming from outside in shock.

What did he mean by saying she was not allowed to get out of this yard! Did he mean to imprison her?

She pushed the door hard, only to find that she really couldn’t push the door open. At that moment, Lin Mengya realized that this guy meant it!

“Long Tianyu, let me out!”

She pounded the door hard with her fists, but there was no response at all.

Lin Mengya was annoyed, rubbing her hands which had turned red and shouting unwillingly.

“Why do you imprison me! I tell you, we are both free. It’s an infringement of personal freedom. I can call the police to arrest you!”

As soon as she finishing the familiar words, Lin Mengya remembered suddenly that she was in the ancient times where women were humble rather than a modern society with a sound legal system.

She decisively gave up persuading him with this. Lin Mengya, who was sullen, stared at the door in anger.

He could imprison her, but couldn’t imprison her heart.

As a modern tough girl, who could even climb over the wall to get out of the orphanage and hang out, how could she be imprisoned in this tiny Liuxin Courtyard!

Long Tianyu dared to cut off her path to freedom by this rude means. He must be joking! He would see!

Outside Prince Yu’s Mansion, before dawn, there were a few horses and a carriage waiting in good spirits at the gate.

The inspection tour for spring ploughing had been delayed again and again. If he kept staying in the capital city, the staff of the Crown Prince would pick on him on the pretext of delaying spring ploughing.

Long Tianyu, who was in a dark brown brocade robe, was dressed as an ordinary childe from a wealthy merchant’s family. He wore a small hat inlaid with a gray jade, with his dark long hair bound neatly behind his head, and a pair of leather boots with thick soles on his feet.

He leaped on the horse nimbly.

However, his facial features, which were so perfect as if carved out, were stained with a bit of sorrow at this moment.

The atmosphere was a bit more depressed than the somewhat dim sky.

Last night, he locked Lin Mengya up in anger.

However, he didn’t feel that he did anything wrong. He just thought it would make her feel bored indeed to imprison her in Liuxin Courtyard.

“Steward Deng, after I leave, the princess, the princess is not allowed to leave the mansion. But she can go wherever she wants in the mansion. Treat her well. If she requests anything, just try every effort to meet her demand.”

Steward Deng promised repeatedly, but Long Tianyu looked at the door and shook his head helplessly.

He ordered someone to lock Lin Mengya in the yard. But the girl was really fiery. She locked her door and windows with a few big locks that night.

He intended to take a look at her a moment ago, but was blocked by the huge locks.

In fact, those locks were no big deal for him. Nevertheless, he couldn’t bear to disturb her sleep.

In the end, he could only sigh and left her yard.

“Your Highness, rest assured. I will do everything I can to protect the princess. You should be careful on your way.”

Lin Kui had always followed the prince and protected him outside.

As the steward of the prince’s mansion, he only needed to ensure the security of the prince’s mansion.

But now, in addition to the new princess who was quite tactful, Concubine De also seemed to be a little different from the person she used to be.

Alas, he didn’t know what would happen in the mansion after the Prince left.

It was a difficult job to be a steward!

Lin Mengya woke up at the day break.

After she stretched herself, a cup of warm water was immediately placed in front of her.

Behind the cup was Ms. Tian’s smile which was old but very spirited.

“Morning, Ms. Tian”

After taking the cup, Lin Mengya gave Ms. Tian a sweet smile.

Last night, she came over to sleep with Ms. Tian with her pillow and quilt in anger.

The quiet scent only belonging to her mother calmed her heart.

“It’s still early. You can go back to sleep.”

Ms. Tian looked at Lin Mengya lovingly. She had heard about what had happened yesterday.

This girl still stayed by her side once she felt aggrieved, as she did as a child.

In the past, Miss did that because she could still protect the young master and Miss from the wind and rain with her aged bones. Now, everyone in this yard relied on Miss, so once Miss felt aggrieved, Miss only stayed by her side and sought comfort without telling anyone else, as she did as a child.
