<h4>215 Lin San’s Ac</h4>


    Ming Xiao condition slowly stabilized. He looked better than he was when he first came. The first aid from General Fan proved to be useful.


    "He will be fine, but we need to find doctor before long," General Fan said to Lin San.


    Because of martial arts training, Ming Xiao was rtively fine even with his body riddled in injury. Even so, he still needed proper treatment for his wound to prevent future problem. They needed to find a doctor, as soon as possible.


    Lin San nodded. She didn''t really understand medicine, but she knew that the situation Ming Xiao was in was terrible. If they didn''t find a doctor soon enough, it might threaten his life.


    The thought of losing Ming Xiao made Lin San felt heavy. She didn''t want to lose him, she still wanted to stay by his side and apanied him. With that thought in her mind, she slowly fell asleep beside Ming Xiao.


    General Fan looked around, thinking for a way to escape. Should they took Ming Xiao for another beating, the boy won''t be able to survive. If it was him, he can endure through a few rounds of beating since he was used with fighting. But Ming Xiao was a prince and it was hard for him to endure it.


    After a couple of hours, Ming Xiao opened his eyes. He looked towards Lin San by his side and caressed her hair gently. He looked towards General Fan with question.


    "What happened?"


    "You pass out because of the wound. Princess Lin San is waiting for you," General Fan answered. He too had been sleeping, but the movement of Ming Xiao caused him to wake up.


    Ming Xiao nodded and slowly got up from the bed. He picked up Lin San and tucked her into the bed. He frowned a bit when his back started to ache.


    "You shouldn''t move so much, Your Highness," General Dan hurriedly stood up.


    Ming Xiao raised his hand to stop him. He looked towards Lin San and sighed. How can he let her experience all of this? She is just a girl.


    Looking at Ming Xiao still stand calmly despite his wound, General Fan backed up. For that instant, he got the feeling that the one standing before him was not a mere abandoned prince, but a powerful prince. He shook his head at that thought. How can he imagine things like that?


    Time passed slowly and Lin San soon woke up.


    "Ming Xiao, are you alright?"


    Ming Xiao nodded. "Yeah, don''t worry so much."


    They were given some food, only enough to keep their stomach not crying. After another few hours, the men returned, but this time the one they take was Lin San.


    "You! Don''t touch her!" Ming Xiao wanted to stop them. The men gave him a kick, and he crouched on the floor, holding his stomach with his hand.


    General Fan Dan tried to help, but another one blocked his way. He clenched his fist as he watched them taking the princess out from the ce.


    On the other hand, Lin San frantically tried to keep her calm. The men didn''t bother tying her up since she was only a weak girl. With a wave of hand from the head guard, they dismissed. The man who interrogated Ming Xiao before looked towards Lin San.


    "A girl worthy of being the part of imperial family," he said slowly. The calm Lin San showed even when facing them was extraordinary. It made him remember those from the royal family.


    Looking at the head guard, he opened his mouth again. "You will be in charge to interrogate her. I will be going with the guards."


    "Yes Your Majesty."


    After he walked away, the head guard looked towards Lin San. Lin San could be considered a beauty and with her mature demeanor, she did look charming. Lin San noticed his eyes and her heart tightened, but she forced herself to keep calm. She stared back at him with challenge.


    "Ck, ck, ck, how daring of you to look at me with that kind of eyes? Are you already impatient, princess?"


    Lin San sneered. Forcing her fear down, she put a calm face. Deep down, she felt a bit grateful for the harsh treatment from the people in imperial family. Because of them, she had learned how to act even better.


    "Are you kidding? Who would want to be with a man like you who even dare to **** women during war?" Lin San said harshly. No matter how afraid she was, she wouldn''t show it to him.


    The head guard sneered. He walks towards Lin San who was sitting calmly on the chair. Men like him cannot handle being taunted like that.


    "Oh really? You prefer to be with that wimp?"


    Wimp? Lin San held the urge to strangle this man as she smiled coldly. Her beautiful face made her even more charming in this ce. "He''s a thousand times better than you."


    The room where she was located was only the side of the room where they are held. Ming Xiao almost fainted when he heard Lin San''s words. He felt like he was on cloud nine right now.


    The head guardughed. "Unfortunately, a man like him can''t help you out from this ce."


    Lin San eyes watched as the head guard opened his armor. She covertly took out her hairpin. This was not the usual hairpin she used, but a special one she prepared in case she met with an enemy. Before going to war, she had ground it to make the end sharp.


    The head guard walks towards Lin San. "You''re really gorgeous. I bet I will be having fun here."


    When he stood real close with her, she stabbed the hairpin towards his chest. Without the protective armor, his chest was open. The length of the hairpin was such that it reached the other party heart.


    "AH, how dare you!"


    The head guard used hisst strength to push Lin San away. Because of the forceful movement, Lin San collided with the wall. Her head was spinning and it hurt very much.


    ''I can''t pass out yet.''


    Lin San tried to keep her eyes opened and stared at the guard who was trying hard to stop the bleeding.


    ''He''s still alive.''


    Lin San slowly stood up while enduring her pain and took the head guard''s sword from the side. It was heavy, but she used all of her power to raise it and shed down at him using her entire power. That was the end of this head guard.


    With her head was partially working, Lin San rummaged the items on the table before finding a key. Staggering, she walked towards the door and unlocking it.


    "San''er!" Ming Xiao hurriedly held the girl. Her head was bleeding, but she was still smiling proudly.


    "We can escape now," she said weakly.


    General Fan truly felt awe towards Lin San. The girl courage is truly something and even at that situation, she dared to try assassinating the head guard. Well, the method was something that he could never replicate though. Crouching down, he put Lin San on his back.


    "Pardon me Princess, but we need to get away quickly."


    Lin San nodded, her body felt heavy. Ming Xiao quickly locked the door again and took the key with him. "Let''s go."


    The three of them soon slipped away.
