The Princess Of 100 Talents
Chapter #40

...Prince Rong's appearance outside the palace...

...----------------...

"Feng Ying, let's see if Bai Xian Pi's medicinal ingredients are still in the warehouse or they're up." Said Lin Yao who was looking at the medicinal ingredients.

"Well miss."

Feng Ying then walked into the medicinal ingredients warehouse to look at the medicinal ingredients that Lin Yao had said just now.

And not long after Feng Ying returned.

"Miss, Bai Xian Ping is only two packs away." Said Feng Ying.

"Okay, you take note. Tomorrow I will ask someone to bring an order of medicinal ingredients to brother Ming Yu's place."

"Well miss."

Lin Yao looked out of the room "The weather is currently erratic, many people are complaining of their skin itching. So I have to make more medicine than usual."

Lin Yao again sorted out the medicinal ingredients that had dried, to put on the paper which would later be wrapped as a decoction medicine.

"You've just recovered, how can you have worked so hard?"

A voice made Lin Yao turn his head from the medicinal ingredients that were in front of him.

"Your majesty." Said Lin Yao after knowing that the one speaking was prince Rong.

Prince Rong walked over to Lin Yao.

"Greetings to his highness prince Rong." Said Lin Yao while saluting.

"Stop that, you'll be my queen. So no more doing that to me."

"But your highness...."

"If you want, you can do it another way. But later after you officially become my consort."

Lin Yao was speechless as he looked at prince Rong.

Prince Rong himself just smiled, then sat down in front of the chair that Lin Yao had been sitting on.

"Is this a medicinal ingredient that is taken after boiling?" Ask prince Rong.

"True, I also made a potion to mix in the water to take a bath."

"You made it too?"

"Yes, your highness. The weather is so hot right now. And many say if their skin itches. So I made two kinds of cures for those hives."

"You're so smart, you don't know if the woman you used to say didn't have any talent, it turns out to be a woman with 100 talents. Even your prowess in medicine exceeds that of the healers in the palace."

"Your majesty, how can you compare me to that great court physician?"

"But indeed on such a reality, Lin'er."

Lin Yao paused for a moment when he heard prince Rong call out his little name, his heart beating rapidly.

"I want to take you somewhere, can you?" Prince Rong.

Lin Yao looked at Prince Rong "The noble one wants to take me where?"

"You'll know later."

Lin Yao was silent for a moment then nodded.

"Your majesty can wait a little longer, I'll finish this soon." Said Lin Yao while looking back at those dried medicinal ingredients.

Prince Rong rubbed Lin Yao's head slowly "No need to rush, I will accompany you here."

Lin Yao petrified instantly, while receiving the treatment of prince Rong who managed to make Lin Yao's face flushed red.

Behind the door, Feng Ying who saw that did not dare to enter and gave the note of the medicinal ingredients that had been depleted to her young miss.

"Hopefully your highness the prince is a man who will protect the missus, and will always be with the missus."

Feng Ying returned to the front of the medicinal shop to serve the visitors who wanted to buy medicine in that shop.

A table buzz in front of Feng Ying, made Feng Ying and the people inside the shop shocked.

"Tu... Young master Xu, what are you doing here?" Asked Feng Ying.

Young master Xu looked at Feng Ying with a gaze that was hard to understand.

"Where is Lin Yao? I want to see him." Said young master Xu in such an arrogant tone.

"Sorry sir, this time young lady is busy."

"How dare you, quickly call him. I want to talk to him."

"Te... But sir...."

"What is this, why do I hear a commotion from inside?" Asked Lin Yao who had just arrived.

Seeing the person he wanted to meet coming, master Xu immediately tidied up his clothes and smiled as sweetly as possible at Lin Yao.

"Lin 'er. How are you, I... I want to talk to you." Said young master Xu in the softest tone.

Lin Yao frowned hearing the way young master Xu called his name.

"Sorry young master Xu, it seems like we are not close so you can call my little name." Said Lin Yao.

"Lin'er, we're getting married soon. So of course...."

"Married? Did young master Xu have become a forgetful?"

"Lin'er, you...."

"Young master Xu, you yourself are asking to cancel the marriage with me, and prefer to marry the son of the concubine lord Liu, first. And now that they've been severely punished by the emperor and his highness prince Rong, you're saying if we're going to get married? Are you telling a joke, young master Xu?"

The people who were there whispered to each other and looked at young master Xu with contemptuous gazes.

Young master Xu clenched his hands hearing all of Lin Yao's words, he didn't expect that Lin Yao would be so good at talking right now.

"Lin'er, it's over. I was wrong to let you down, but now I realize my mistake. I beg you to forgive me, we can start everything over. My parents will come to see your mother."

"Young master Xu!"

A heavy fan's voice was a little loud, making everyone speechless and turn to the source of the voice.

From inside the room where Lin Yao had earlier come out, walked prince Rong with his sharp gaze which he directed at young master Xu.

Lin Yao who saw the arrival of prince Rong was only silent, but different from young master Xu and the people who were there, he said, who was very surprised to see prince Rong coming from the room where Lin Yao came out earlier.

"Yes... His highness prince Rong." Mumbled young master Xu.

Lin Yao retreated a few steps back.

"Greetings to his highness prince Rong, may his majesty live long." Said young master Xu while saluting.

"Young master Xu, what are you doing here?"

"Sa... I'm meeting Lin'er."

Prince Rong sharpened his gaze on young master Xu, upon hearing him call Lin Yao by her small name.

"Young master Xu, as far as I know the future young mistress Xu is the son of Lord Liu's concubine, not this Miss Lin Yao. So why do you call him so familiar?"

"I.... That's because I... I'm....."

"Dispose of your embarrassing habits. And again, I've said that Lin Yao is my future empress, but you boldly call her by her little name in front of me."

Both young master Xu's eyes widened, he had absolutely no idea if now Lin Yao had become the future empress of prince Rong, who was famous for being so cruel and untouchable.

"Yes.... Your honor, you...."

"Now you know that if Lin'er is my future empress, then go and don't bother her anymore. If not, I'll make sure you don't have a future." Prince Rong's words cut off the speech of young master Xu.

Young master Xu's hands clenched, and with a feeling of annoyance he left Lin Yao's medicinal shop.

Prince Rong looked at Lin Yao and smiled faintly at him.

Lin Yao nodded softly "With this, that male from the Xu family will no longer bother me, quite quickly and precisely the actions of the future husband in this period."
