Transmigrated to Ancient Times as a Female Prison Guard

Chapter 36

Gong Xiaohua finished her battle here and immediately went to support other members of her team.

Two or three people from their team had been eliminated. Those who were left were also at their last gasp. If no one helped them, being eliminated would be just a matter of time.

She directly wielded her twin swords, slashing towards the front in the crowd. She was just like a harvester, wherever she went to on the field, that place would be overturned. Yet her opponents couldn't even touch the hem of her clothes.

Where did this goddess of death come from? All these people combined still weren't enough for her to chop down.

Thus, a strange phenomenon appeared on the competition field. Within ten meters around Gong Xiaohua, no one dared to get close to her. They avoided her as if avoiding the plague, everyone stayed far away from her.

There were only 20 spots left. No one wanted to rush up there and send their heads to others, making clothes for their brides.

So everyone simply stayed away from the grim reaper. After all, there were still 19 spots they could compete for.

When the competition finally ended, the final 20 people were 8 from the Twelve Guards, 4 from the Ministry of War, 4 from the Ministry of Justice, 2 from the Court of Judicial Review, and 2 prefects.

The leaders of the Three Departments Alliance were very satisfied with the final results. If it wasn't for Gong Xiaohua this year, their Three Departments Alliance might have been completely wiped out in today's competition.

"Lord Li, today's competition, we really have to thank you!" Prefect Cui of Jingzhao said.

Minister Li couldn't stop smiling. If he didn't care about his subordinates next to him, he would have laughed out loud.

"Where, where, Lord Cui is too kind."

"Yes, Old Li, I didn't expect that the skills of the staff of the Ministry of Justice would become so good this year, especially that young lady. I wonder which expert taught her?" Minister of Justice Gu said.

"Old Gu, that would be meaningless to reveal."

The battle competition was completely over in the early afternoon. After more than three hours, the final participants left were extremely exhausted.

The final challenge competition would be held tomorrow. Today's competition officially ended.

Several officials of the Ministry of Justice laughed from ear to ear. Looking at the four members who came down from the field, they immediately ordered people to take good care of them, especially Gong Xiaohua, the number one seed of the department.

Manager Wu on the side almost wanted to serve Gong Xiaohua himself, pouring tea and water for her attentively. It was really hard on his eyes.

At this time, Twelfth Princess, who was with Lin Yueru, looked at Gong Xiaohua on the field with great admiration. She said to Miss Lin next to her:

"Sister Lin, do you know who that girl on the field is? She's so powerful!"

At this moment, Lin Yueru hated Gong Xiaohua to the bone, but she pretended to be calm on the surface and replied:

"Replying to the Princess, I heard my father said that there was a girl in the preliminaries this year. She seems to be a prison guard from the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice. It should be her."

"She is so powerful, it would be too wasteful for her to just be a prison guard. She will surely get a good ranking in the finals with her skills. When that happens, I will have my father the King assign her as my personal guard."

Then she turned to the maid behind her and said, "Dong'er, please invite that girl over."

"Yes, Princess."

The maid had just walked away when the princess called her back.

"Wait, it's getting late, it's time to go back too. Before we leave, I want to see that sister myself."

"Princess, you can't. How can you receive someone so lowly yourself? It would be inappropriate." Lin Yueru next to her said.

"Sister Lin, you are too pedantic, abiding by those rigid rules every day. Isn't it tiring?"

"I really like that sister, I think it would be very interesting if she becomes my friend, hehe..."

After speaking, she waited for the maid to prepare her dress, then left with a group of palace maids, eunuchs and guards, leaving Lin Yueru and her personal maid behind grinding their teeth in hatred.

That cheap girl, Lin Yueru had tried to curry favor with the Twelfth Princess for many years, but never gained her favor. She didn't expect her to make the princess treat her differently with just one meeting.

Humph, she still wants to be the princess's personal guard? Let's see if she can even make it into the finals!

Sixth Prince had noticed the only girl on the field when Gong Xiaohua defeated Balu. At this moment, she was emitting a dazzling charm that made people unable to move their eyes away.

When the battle royale finally ended, he whispered to the eunuch Liu next to him: "Check out that girl's background."

Soon, Eunuch Liu came back and walked to the Sixth Prince's side. He said in a low voice: "Young Master, I've found out. That girl is called Gong Xiaohua, she is a prison guard in the dungeon of the Ministry of Justice."

"A female prison guard, what a pity, her status is a bit too low. But it doesn't matter, taking her as a concubine is still possible."

"Then Young Master, shall we prepare for tonight..." Eunuch Liu asked in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"No rush, beautiful things must be appreciated first before they can be enjoyed even more. "

"Yes, Young Master is wise."

The calculating and lustful expressions on Sixth Prince and Eunuch Liu's faces did not escape Qin Chuyuan's eyes.

He clenched his fists tightly, his face gloomy and terrifying. The world only knew that the Sixth Prince was gentle and humble, but in fact only a few people knew that he had great shrewdness, and his actions were sinister and ruthless. He was also extremely good at hiding things.

One of the secrets he hides deepest is his fondness for playing with women. Countless young girls have died at his hands, but there is no solid evidence.

Calling over a servant next to him, he said, "Keep a close eye on every move of the Sixth Prince and report anything unusual to me."

"Yes, Young Master." The servant left to carry out the order.

Gong Xiaohua and the team of the Ministry of Justice were about to leave when a stranger dressed like a maid walked up to her.

"Miss, my master invites you."

Gong Xiaohua looked in the direction behind the maid. Ahead was a luxurious carriage, with dozens of guards on either side, several maids in front and behind, and several beardless men.

It was not difficult to see that this carriage was from the palace. The guards on both sides should be the imperial guards of the palace, the maids were palace maids, and the beardless men were the eunuchs of the palace.

Gong Xiaohua raised her eyebrows at the palace maid in front of her and said, "May I ask which noble person in the palace is your master?"

"Replying to Miss, my master is His Majesty's most beloved daughter, the Twelfth Princess." She gestured for Gong Xiaohua to come after speaking.

Gong Xiaohua asked her team leader for permission and bid farewell to Yang Shu. She then followed the maid to the Twelfth Princess’s carriage.

"Replying to the Princess, she has arrived."

Subsequently, a girl with chubby round face and cute little freckles jumped out of the carriage, followed by a stern nursemaid who did not smile.

Gong Xiaohua saluted the little girl in front of her: "Greetings to the Princess."

"Sister, there’s no need to be overly courteous. I am called Helian Linglong, you can also call me Linglong. May I ask Sister’s name?"

"Replying to the Princess, my name is Gong Xiaohua."

"How bold! In front of the princess, how can you refer to yourself as "I"? You should call yourself "this slave"." The middle-aged nursemaid said.

"Nanny, I like this sister. What does it matter how she addresses herself?" The Twelfth Princess unhappily said to her nursemaid behind her.

"But Princess, it's inappropriate..."

Before she could finish speaking, the princess interrupted her.

"Nanny?"

Seeing this, the nursemaid did not dare to say more, she could only back down.

"Sister Gong, I want to be friends with you, may I?"

Seeing the innocent and romantic little girl suddenly say she wanted to be friends with her, she was a little caught off guard.

In this era, she hadn’t thought about making friends with any young girls.

Seeing no response from the other party, Twelfth Princess thought she disagreed to be her friend. Indeed, it was the same as usual.

"Sister Gong, you don't want to be friends with me?" Twelfth Princess said with a disappointed look.

"The Princess misunderstood. It's just that my status is too low to be the Princess's friend. Please reconsider, Princess." Gong Xiaohua found an excuse to refuse. She really couldn't immediately become friends with someone she just met.

"Sister, how can you be so self-deprecating? Your grace on the field is unmatched by many ladies. I just like sisters like you. I can't stand those pretentious young ladies from prestigious families, each with their odd demeanors - it's so boring."

"Sister, it's decided then. Next time there's a chance, I'll come to visit you and play." After saying that, he ran off to the carriage, not giving Gong Xiaohua a chance to refuse.
