After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 293: Begging for mercy

"Your Highness, I know I was wrong. Please spare my life. I promise I will listen to Lin Fengmian from now on and will never resist again. I hope Your Highness will spare my life."

Upon hearing what the man before him said, Gan Luo put away his whip and returned to his seat. He then coldly stared at the others, who immediately recognized his expression.

They certainly didn't dare to say another word, but silently kept their heads down. Gan Luo was staring at these people, and then his gaze fell on Lin Ruohua.

Lin Ruohua thought that Gan Luo was indeed powerful; he could make so many people obey him with his own strength.

Lin Ruohua focused her gaze on Gan Luo and silently made up her mind that she must emulate Gan Luo.

After all, Gan Luo was truly an exceptionally powerful person. Moreover, he had single-handedly defeated so many people before. Recalling the past on this ground, her eyes were filled with admiration for Gan Luo.

Upon hearing Lin Ruohua's words, Gan Luo gently patted her shoulder and then told them in front of everyone, "There is something you may not know, and this young lady in front of you is also your deputy hall master. From now on, you must all listen to her."

If they don't listen to you, then don't blame Gan Luo for being ruthless towards them. After all, Gan Luo's patience has its limits, doesn't it?

If they insist on testing Gan Luo's patience again and again, Gan Luo will definitely show them what it means to go and never return, and he will definitely show them what regret is.

In the end, he entrusted the task of cleaning up the mess to Lin Ruohua. After Lin Ruohua finally agreed, Gan Luo returned to the princess's residence.

“Miss Lin, we all believe that you are the rightful leader of the Shadow Hall, after all, your mother… According to this logic, you should be the true leader here. But Gan Luo has made you the deputy leader. Don’t you feel that this is unfair?”

Lin Ruohua hated nothing more than people gossiping. He immediately turned his attention to the person and lashed out with his whip. The person was suddenly whipped and stumbled back a few steps.

Those around them were quite surprised to learn that both Lin Ruohua and Gan Luo liked to use whips.

"Let me tell you, if you continue to gossip here, don't blame me for being impolite. I won't be sentimental about the past. All you need to know is one thing: my mother has passed this position to Lin Fengmian."

Lin Ruohua had absolutely no interest in this position. She really didn't understand why everyone was saying these things here, and it made her feel a little disgusted.

Lin Ruohua walked to the back and looked at the peach tree. Was this peach tree planted when her mother was still alive? She never expected it to grow so tall now.

For some reason, looking at this peach tree now makes me feel as if my mother is still here. But when I think about it carefully, as long as I always have my mother in my heart, she must still be here, right? She has never left Lin Ruohua.

"I think this Miss Lin is simply ungrateful. I originally thought that Miss Lin would understand what we all meant, but now I find that Miss Lin doesn't understand at all. What's more, Miss Lin directly beat us all up like this, which really makes me quite angry."

One of the men, who was about twenty years old, said this directly at this moment, his eyes filled with anger.

The people around him shared the same thoughts. After all, they had been in the Shadow Hall for quite some time and were considered elders within it. However, Lin Ruohua not only showed them no respect but also taught them a lesson. How could they possibly tolerate this...?

"Have you all forgotten what the rules are here? The rule here is to obey everyone and do this?"

Upon hearing this man's words, they were momentarily at a loss for words, as if they had truly failed to obey him in this matter of obedience.

"If the Hall Master were alive today, and knew what you were all doing here, do you think he would be very disappointed? I'm quite curious about that."

They just looked at each other without saying a word, remaining there silently.

Lin Ruohua returned to the princess's residence and told Gan Luo that the matter had been mostly resolved. Gan Luo then told Lin Ruohua, "Do you harbor any resentment in your heart? After all, logically speaking, your mother should have passed the position of leader of the Shadow Hall to you, but she didn't."

"Your Highness, what are you saying? How could I possibly have any complaints here? Besides, I would rather be relaxed and carefree than manage the affairs of the Shadow Hall."

More importantly, all she wants now is revenge. She must make this prime minister pay the price, since he killed her adoptive parents and now caused the death of her real mother.

"I want to tell you about this matter. I will help you, but you cannot act rashly here. Before you do anything, you must tell me, understand? Everything I do is for your own good."

Gan Luo understood that this prime minister had to be dealt with, and even the Grand Tutor had to be dealt with as well; otherwise, with them in the court, the court would never have a day of peace.

Moreover, this Prime Minister Xu is very good at winning people's hearts.
