Very quickly, they arrived outside Princess Changle's palace hall.
At the door, they saw a eunuch. The eunuch was about fifty years old.
"Seventh Princess, are you here to visit Princess Changle?" the eunuch asked with a smile.
"Eunuch Dong, yes." Seventh Princess Yanran smiled.
However, Eunuch Dong had no intention of stepping aside. Instead, he looked at Linlong and asked, "Seventh Princess, who is this?"
"This is my personal bodyguard, Tang Li," replied the Seventh Princess.
"Greetings, Eunuch Dong." Linlong nodded his head.
Eunuch Dong ignored him. Instead, he said to the Seventh Princess, "Seventh Princess, you can go in alone. There is no need for Tang Li to go in."
Hearing his words, the Seventh Princess became unhappy. Frowning, she asked, "Eunuch Dong, what do you mean? This is my personal bodyguard. Do you think he can do something bad?"
Faced with the Seventh Princess's questioning, Eunuch Dong's complexion turned somewhat unsightly. He hurriedly replied, "Seventh Princess, that is not what I mean. His Imperial Majesty means that unrelated people cannot enter to see Princess Changle."
"Good! Eunuch Dong, you dare say that my bodyguard is unrelated people? Do you believe that I will not report you to Imperial Father?" The Seventh Princess raised her voice.
"This … …"
While Eunuch Dong was at a loss as to what to do, the Seventh Princess had already pulled Linlong inside, leaving behind a gloomy Eunuch Dong.
Of course, if someone else had done this, he would definitely have pulled them back. However, the one doing this was the extremely favored Seventh Princess. How could he dare to do this? As a result, he could only watch helplessly as the Seventh Princess brought Linlong inside.
Soon after, the two met Princess Changle. Princess Changle was only one year older than the Seventh Princess.
Although she did not look like the Seventh Princess, she was similarly an exceptionally beautiful woman. It was no wonder that Luo Shengfei refused to marry her.
"Elder sister, in a few days, you will be heading to the Western Capital. This younger sister truly cannot bear to part with you." After seeing Princess Changle, the Seventh Princess could not help but hug her tightly.
Linlong could see that she was revealing her true feelings, not the slightest bit of hypocrisy.
"Younger sister, what is there to be reluctant about? In the future, if you wish to see your elder sister, you can go directly to the Western Capital." Princess Changle smiled.
His smile seemed bright, but it was obvious that there was some sorrow hidden within.
After chatting for a while, Princess Changle looked curiously at Linlong, who stood behind the Seventh Princess. She then asked, "Younger sister, who is this person?"
"This is my personal bodyguard, Tang Li. What do you think of him?" The Seventh Princess smiled.
"Not bad." Princess Changle smiled. Afterwards, she teased, "Is it possible for younger sister to give Bodyguard Tang to elder sister?"
"That won't do. Guard Tang owes me a lot. I won't let him leave if he doesn't pay off these debts," the Seventh Princess said.
After the two of them chatted for a while, the Seventh Princess went to the toilet at the back. At this moment, the folding fan beside the Seventh Princess fell to the ground.
Linlong, who had sharp eyes and nimble hands, stepped forward and picked up the folding fan.
This clearly surprised Princess Changle. She opened her mouth and said, "Bodyguard Tang, there is no need to be so polite."
Unexpectedly, Linlong whispered into her ear, "Princess Changle, I am acquainted with the Second Imperial Prince. He sent me to rescue you."
As he spoke, Linlong flicked his hand. A spatial stone stealthily landed on the stool that Princess Changle was sitting on.
At this moment, there were only a few servant girls at the side. These servant girls did not have much strength, so Linlong was not worried that they would discover anything.
Linlong was worried about the eunuch Eunuch Dong, whom he had just met outside. That eunuch clearly had the strength of a warrior of the fifth rank. From his appearance, he should be here to keep an eye on Princess Changle.
Hearing Linlong's words, Princess Changle's body clearly trembled.
"Many thanks, Bodyguard Tang," she said again.
At this moment, Linlong had already stood up, returning to his previous position.
Soon after, Linlong saw Princess Changle grab the spatial stone in her hand. Afterwards, she left and returned to her chambers. It was a while before she returned.
As soon as she returned, she looked at a servant girl at the side and said, "Xiaoqing, come here."
The servant girl responded and walked over. Princess Changle whispered something into her ear.
Although her voice was low, Linlong could clearly hear that Princess Changle was telling Xiaoqing to go inside and take something for the Seventh Princess, as well as something that she had prepared for Linlong.
It was obvious that after seeing the contents of the spatial stone, Princess Changle believed Linlong's words.
At this moment, the Seventh Princess happened to return. Seeing the two like this, she could not help but ask curiously, "Elder sister, what are you talking about?"
"Elder sister is talking about you. I'm afraid that it will be bad if Bodyguard Tang hears us," Princess Changle replied with a smile.
"Elder sister, you are still worried about him? Just treat him as if he doesn't exist," the Seventh Princess replied.
Not long after, the servant girl returned with an item. It was an embroidery. On the embroidery was the picture of a beautiful woman. Upon closer inspection, one would even feel that the woman resembled the Seventh Princess.
"Huh? Elder sister, isn't this me?" After looking for a while, the Seventh Princess also discovered this.
"I left this for younger sister as a souvenir," Princess Changle replied with a smile.
"Many thanks, elder sister." The Seventh Princess was unable to restrain her joy. Afterwards, she turned to Linlong and said, "Bodyguard Tang, help this Princess hold this."
Linlong took a few steps forward and accepted the embroidery. The servant girl, who had followed the Seventh Princess, secretly placed an item into Linlong's pocket.
From the looks of it, it should be a letter.
"Elder sister, this younger sister will take her leave first." After chatting for a while longer, the Seventh Princess took her leave.
Soon after, the two of them left this place.
After leaving, the eunuch from before looked Linlong up and down. However, he only looked at Linlong this way and did not say anything else.
After returning to the Anruo Palace Hall, Linlong took out the item that the servant girl had placed in his pocket. It was a letter. After opening it, Linlong began to read it earnestly.
The letter stated that Princess Changle and her mother's current circumstances were not good. In a few days, Princess Changle would be married off to the Western Capital.
When the time came, her mother would accompany her. Originally, Wu Xuanran had not allowed this. In the end, under the threat of death by Princess Changle's mother, Wu Xuanran had finally agreed.
Princess Changle hoped that the person who received this letter would go to a sect in the River Court City and find the sect master of that sect, asking that sect master to help rescue her mother and daughter.
Princess Changle's mother had once saved that person's life. Therefore, that person would definitely lend a helping hand.
Inside the envelope was a letter and a keepsake. The envelope was specially addressed to that sect master.
The keepsake was a jade pendant that Princess Changle's mother had worn.
It was obvious that these two letters had been written by Princess Changle a long time ago. Moreover, they were not placed in her residence. She was most likely afraid that others would discover these letters in her residence. This was the reason why she had sent that servant girl to ask for them.
There were only a few days left until Princess Changle's wedding. All he could do now was go out and seek out the sect master of that sect to ask for his help. Linlong thought to himself.
Soon after, he went to find the Seventh Princess.
"Bodyguard Tang, what's the matter?" Seeing that Linlong had actually taken the initiative to find her, the Seventh Princess was clearly somewhat surprised.
"It's like this. There are some matters at home that require me to return in a few days," Linlong fabricated a story.
"Why didn't you mention this before?" the Seventh Princess asked doubtfully.
"It wasn't convenient to tell you before, but after thinking about it today, I decided to tell you," Linlong replied.
"This doesn't seem like your style," the Seventh Princess said as she circled around Linlong.
After thinking about it, she actually said, "Unless you let this princess go with you."
"Seventh Princess, you aren't my wife. Why would you want to go with me?" Linlong was somewhat speechless.
"Who said that only your wife can go?" The Seventh Princess immediately widened her eyes. Finished speaking, she ruthlessly pinched Linlong's arm.
"Seventh Princess, if you really want to go, then next time. This time, I'm really in a hurry." Linlong had no intention of bickering with her. After all, time was of the essence.
"Alright then, this princess will allow you to go this once," the Seventh Princess said.
"Then this guard will take his leave." Saying this, Linlong walked out. He did not even return to his own residence. Instead, he directly walked out of the imperial palace.
After leaving the imperial palace and ascertaining his direction, he headed straight for the River Sect City.
The River Sect City was not close to the imperial city. After spending most of the day flying, Linlong finally entered the boundaries of the River Sect City.
As soon as he landed, Linlong began to make inquiries.
After making some inquiries, a gloomy expression appeared on his face. The River Sect that Princess Changle spoke of wasn't a large sect. He asked many people, but none of them knew where it was.
After asking over a dozen people, he finally found out the location of the sect.
Immediately, he hurried towards the location of the sect.
Two hours later, he finally arrived at the mountain peak where the River Sect was located.
After seeing the River Sect, Linlong's face couldn't help but twitch. The River Sect was so small that it couldn't be any smaller. Even the ordinary sect next to it seemed to be much more powerful than it.
How could such a sect have a rank five expert? Linlong expressed his doubts.
However, since Princess Changle said that the expert was in the sect, he could only go in and take a look.
Soon after, he walked to the main entrance of the sect.
Upon seeing Linlong, the guards at the entrance asked, "What business do you have?"
"I'm looking for your sect master," Linlong said bluntly.
"Do you think our Sect Master is someone you can casually find?" One of them immediately frowned.
"What do you think?" Linlong didn't get angry. As he spoke, his body naturally emitted an aura.
Sensing Linlong's aura, the guards' expressions immediately changed.
The face of the person who questioned him just now was immediately filled with smiles. "Sir, please follow me."
After bringing Linlong to the sect's main hall, the guard said to him, "Sir, please wait here. Our sect master will arrive shortly."
Soon after, he arranged for someone to pour tea for Linlong.
Linlong had only displayed the strength of a rank three martialist. Even so, the people of this sect were so respectful towards him. One could imagine how powerful this sect was.
