Lin Shaoze's Identity

"You, vulgar good-for-nothing!" He fumed internally, "this is the first time I've heard you speak so boldly and in front of the 4th Xiao Dragon Country prince of all people! Even Elder Bai wouldn't be able to save you no matter how many times you crawl into his bed. Good luck escaping death without my aid!"

"Hehe." Lin Shaoze raised his delicate lips into a heart-warming smile, shooting a sharp gaze towards Shi Rong." This must be Shi Rong, the beautiful 3rd princess good-for-nothing of the Genji Tiger Country. Your reputation of having a face that could destroy lands precedes you, but the rumors certainly don't live up to you. From first glance I can easily tell you are a mid-level Martial Emperor, clearly not a good-for-nothing but a beautiful arrogant genius!"

The Emperor and princesses along with a few guards widened their eyes in complete shock and utter surprise, except for Shi Rongs personal guards who snickered at their reactions.

A mid-level Martial Emperor, that's impossible in just the span of two months!

Emperor Shi leapt in fury and yelled, "My dear 4th prince that's simply nonsense this good-for-nothing can't possibly be a Martial Emperor!" This damned woman dared to fool such a powerful ally, she was humiliating him greatly. That's great, just great. Not only is she a good-for-nothing, but she's a manipulating good-for-nothing. I shall make her die spectacularly! Emperor Shi gritted his teeth hatefully as he wished to grind Shi Rongs bones into dust.

Lin Shaoze swiftly turned towards Emperor Shi. "Do you wish to tarnish my good name and claim I, Prince Lin Shaoze have made a false accusation? For I can clearly see this arrogant beauty is indeed a mid-level Martial Emperor. Emperor Shi, you may be blind towards the truth, but I am not!"

Emperor Shi was not really an incapable ruler. Hence, he could not argue with this prince who resided in the most power royal family of the entire North Peak Mainland!

Lin Shaoze smiled at Shi Rong. His smile was like a refreshing spring breeze which captured the hearts of the princesses, even Emperor Shi was slightly stunned.

"Imperial 3rd Princess Shi Rong, I would like to formally introduce myself. I am Lin Shaoze the 4th prince of the Xiao Dragon Country who rules over all nations including this weak Genji Tiger Country. I am here for two reasons, the first reason being I am currently in search of a royal bride who meets my standards. The second reason would be to check on the nations in my fathers and crown prince's behalf. I've longed heard of your bewitching beauty, but upon further examination I sincerely would have to deem you unworthy of sitting beside my throne, including warming my bed as a mere concubine at night!"

Shi Rong replied confidently, "4th Prince Lin Shaoze, your vulgar speech is highly unappealing along with your disgusting views of woman. To say I'm unworthy to sit beside your throne or warm you bed as a mere concubine is a mere insult for in your case it would be a compliment for the Emperor dressed in drag to warm you bed. Least then you'll gain some face from the citizens as a possible competent ruler with some taste. Although I'm highly positive your welcoming and heavenly smile is fake I advise you not to stand in my way and disgrace my presence further!"

Lin Shaoze stared at Shi Rong in astonishment as his eyebrow twitched in heavy annoyance.

Her clear cold gaze caused him to grit is teeth in frustration as he tightly gripped his fan.

Everyone in the courtyard was shocked by Shi Rongs words.

Emperor Shi gritted his teeth in anger and fumed internally, "you little b*tch if you break the close ties with the Royal Lin family of the Xiao Dragon Country, I shall have you boiled alive slowly for days until not even your soul remains!"

Lin Shaoze slowly raise his voice and spoke solemnly, "Shi Rong, your antics are quite amusing and utterly entertaining. Originally this prince's eyes were not on you, but now your have raised my interest, though I clearly don't wish for intimate relations, I shall smile upon a friendly relationship!"

Shi Rong was dumbfounded. She clearly wanted nothing to do with this vulgar idiot, but instead attracted his interest to the point he wanted to befriend her!

"Shi Rong, you vulgar and shameless little b*tch, how dare an ugly good-for-nothing like you garner the eyes of the 4th prince!" Shi Tian was enraged, glaring hatefully and storming towards Shi Rong. "You're two-face, acting vulgar and disrespectful towards the 4th prince but secretly plotting to gain his company, just how low of a person are you!"

Shi Rong simply ignored Shi Tian not even acknowledging her presence as she strolled out the Imperial Courtyards with Shi Yan closely on her heels wobbling weakly behind her. Shi Rong walked slowly allowing her to catch up as her personal guards followed behind her.

Shi Tians face grew increasing red as she yelled at Shi Rong. "You dirty whore, you actually dare to ignore your older sister, 2nd Princess Shi Tian! Just what kind of upbringing did a good-for-nothing like you have without the loving care of father and your whore empress mother, you dirty…."

Shi Tian bit down on a golden phoenix fan as her expression grew pale.

"Tsk tsk tsk, such vulgar words towards your younger sister as an elder you should respect the young!" Lin Shaoze exclaimed while retracting his fan from Shi Tians grip. Lin Shaoze being just over the age of fifth-teen sympathized with Shi Rongs feelings towards being looked down upon by her older sister.

Shi Rong led Shi Yan into her bedroom then slowly sat the frail child onto the bed.

Shi Yan glanced up at Shi Rong with a pitiful weak expression and tear stained eyes as she weakly bit her lower lip. "Sister Rong, I don't know how many days left I have on this land, each day grows more painful as my body gets skinnierskinner and weaker by the hour." Her face reddened as tears slid down her soft delicate round face.

Shi Rongs heart swelled as she stared at Shi Yan's face. She couldn't help but remember her 2nd eldest brother in her previous life Xia Lingxiao, who looked at her with the same pained expression during her hard times.

Shi Rongs face hardened with a strong sense of resolve as she clutched Shi Yan's malnourished hands.
