High Grade Green Tea Transmigrates into a Pitiful Little Girl - Chapter 7
The number one priority right now was to get away from this beating.
She could not rush everything. The Queen of Green Tea could bend and stretch for the sake of self preservation. First do a tactical retreat, then prepare a strategy to counter attack!
Lin Feilu immediately held her breath. Before the willow branch could fall a second time, the surrounding people saw the little princess faint in sweat.
Xiao Lan screamed and broke free from the palace maids’ grips, and she immediately rushed over to Lin Feilu’s side. Talented Xu was both surprised and suspicious, and she exchanged glances with the two monks. In reality, she was also afraid that hitting people would cause trouble. That’s why she chose the willow branches, just wanting Lin Feilu to suffer a little skin and flesh bruises. So why did she faint before it barely even started?
At first, she suspected that the little girl was just pretending and walked closer to take a better look. But what entered her sight was Lin Feilu with her eyes closed and face pale and full of sweat. Her heart instantly skipped a beat.
The two monks were the disciples of the eminent monk that came to the palace to exorcise evil spirits for Concubine Jing. Talented Xu only gave them some benefits. Seeing people fainting now, they also started panicking.
Talented Xu strained her neck as she said, “It looks like the evil spirits have been exorcised. The Fifth Princess should be fine now after she wakes up.”
After saying that, she gloomily led her people away.
Xiao Lan had no time to care about her. Together with Yun You and Qing Yan, she carried Lin Feilu into the house. Lin Feilu was afraid of scaring them, after all Xiao Lan’s body could not take a fright. As soon as they got inside, she “weakly” opened her eyes and called on her. “Mother Consort.”
Xiao Lan cried and bathed in tears. While rubbing Lin Feilu with warm water, she asked Yun You to call the Imperial Physician.
It was good that this matter had become a big deal. A Talented ranked concubine actually dared to put her hands on a princess of the royal family. It is common in the palace to suck up to the powerful and kick someone when they’re down, but bullying someone to this extent was too much.
Lin Feilu did not stop her. She continued laying on the bed with her eyes closed, thinking about what to do next.
She understood now; this harem was a troublesome place. Even if you were not looking for trouble, trouble would come looking for you.
A good person will only end up like Xiao Lan; anyone can step all over you.
In ancient times it had always been easy for little children to die young. Right now, she was only five years old. Even if she was strong inside, her body was just a little girl’s. If she was really hit by external forces, it was hard to say if she could survive.
If even growing up safely was too much to ask, then what was the point?
Originally, she thought this was going to be a story of sitting back and enjoying a retirement life. Who would have thought that there was going to be so much action?1
Eh, an action story is good too. With such a high DPS, isn’t it a waste if she can’t use it to beat some mobs? She wanted to see how much the big and mini bosses of this harem instance1 can withstand her fierce attacks.
The Imperial Physician came pretty quickly hearing that the Fifth Princess had fainted. Listening to Yun You crying as she recounted the story again and again, he also felt that Talented Xu’s actions were absurd.
The original host’s body was already weak, and she hadn’t fully recovered after falling into water a few days ago. The Imperial Physician came over and checked her pulse. He concluded that she was under too much shock and her body was too weak. He prepared a prescription and instructed Xiao Lan to improve the nutrition in Lin Feilu’s diet.
Xiao Lan wanted to, but could only burst into tears when she thought of the food they have left in their storage.
After everyone left, she sat on the side of the bed holding Lin Feilu’s hand. Choking up, she said, “It’s Mother’s fault. I couldn’t protect my good Lu’er.”
Lin Zhanyuan was crying too, shouting, “Beat the bad guys! Beat the bad guys!”
Lin Feilu felt a little headache.
Xiao Lan suddenly reminded her of a roommate she had in college.
She had a good face and a good temper, but was weak and had low self-esteem. She was afraid of trouble and only knew how to cry when she was bullied. She didn’t even know how to resist when her boyfriend was snatched away. She hid in the bedroom and cried for several days as if it was her own fault.
T/N:
1. Lin Feilu uses a bunch of MMO terms here.
Instance comes from ‘instance dungeon’, the place where you hunt monsters etc. The word used for action-filled life can also be read as a battle dungeon.
