The spring sun is shining brightly and the garden is filled with fragrance.

A woman in a light yellow one-shoulder dress was surrounded by several maids and was walking in a garden full of blooming flowers.

Suddenly there was a noise coming from the front.

"Foolish fellow, you actually attempted to assassinate His Highness Mills!"

"Tell me, who sent you to assassinate His Highness?"

"If you don't tell the truth, you will be sentenced to death!"

After passing the large fountain in the center of the garden and turning around a low wall covered with roses, I saw several armored guards pinning a strong and tall man to the ground.

Not far in front of this group of guards stood a young man with black hair and black eyes, dressed in gorgeous clothes, tall stature, and handsome appearance.

The young man had a cold smile on his face, and he looked at the man who was subdued on the ground and came to assassinate him with eyes as if he were looking at an ant.

"Why are all the rats here?"

The guard beside him immediately said, "Your Excellency Mills, this person was transferred here just last month. I don't know what despicable means he used to sneak into the guard team."

Mills is the eldest prince of this kingdom.

Mills was born to the king's first queen. Not long after giving birth to Mills, the queen died of illness, and the king soon married his second queen.

"Your Highness, please spare my life!" The man pinned to the ground raised his head and pleaded, "If Your Highness can forgive my crimes, I am willing to reveal the person behind this. However, I can only tell Your Highness. Please come closer and listen."

Mills narrowed his black pupils and took a step forward.

"Your Highness!" The captain of the guards on the side quickly spoke up to stop him.

Mills just gave the captain of the guards a look and he didn't dare to say anything more.

Mills squatted in front of the assassin. The assassin raised his head with difficulty and moved closer to Mills' ear. There was a flash of silver light, and the assassin somehow broke free from the suppression and took out an extremely sharp dagger and stabbed Mills.

However, before the dagger could hit Mills, the assassin was stabbed through by a heavy sword.

With a puff, blood splattered.

bang-

The dagger fell on the grass and disappeared into tiny specks of light.

At the same time, a voice that no one else could hear rang out: "Host dead, mission failed!"

The maid with long golden hair drew out her heavy sword expressionlessly, and the assassin's blood gushed out like a fountain, irrigating the green grass.

The maid looked at the dagger that turned into fragments of light and disappeared, and said coldly: "Your Highness, it's a wizard."

His Highness Mills took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood splattered on his face gracefully, saying helplessly, "Ira, you are so rude! You will scare our beautiful and kind Princess Dina."

Ila swung the heavy sword in his hand, and the blood on the sword drew a long line on the ground.

"But Your Highness, if I don't do this, I'm afraid the assassin will hurt you. I believe the beautiful and kind Princess Dina will forgive me."

As she spoke, Yila turned her head and her eyes met Chu Jing's. She curled her lips, but her green eyes stared at Chu Jing like stagnant water.

Mills wiped the blood off his face, and his delicate white skin looked like an oil painting in the sunlight.

He waved to the guards, who dragged the already dead assassin away, leaving behind a winding trail of bright red blood.

There was a large patch of blood on Mills's clothes on his chest, but his face was filled with a gentle smile. He walked towards Chu Jing and said:

"Oh, beautiful Princess Dinah, I'm sorry to have you witness such a terrible scene on our first meeting. I hope you don't have any bad impression of me because of this.

"As you can see, this is just a stinking rat who didn't know how to live or die and tried to assassinate me. I was so kind as to believe that he would come to his senses. If it weren't for my loyal subordinate Ira, I'm afraid I would be the one who died."

There was anticipation on his face, as if he really cared whether Chu Jing would mind. "You won't mind, right?"

Chu Jing saw the maid Ira holding the heavy sword wipe the blood off the sword with a black handkerchief, and then she turned her wrist and the heavy sword disappeared.

Ila stood one step behind Mills. Although she was a maid, she looked directly at Chu Jing without any hesitation.

Chu Jing's identity at this time is Dina, a princess from a neighboring country who came to marry.

The king has four unmarried adult sons, and she needs to choose a prince to marry at the banquet tonight.

Chu Jing thought this was a bit ridiculous.

09 Tell her that there is no male or female protagonist in this world, and the target person is called Mills.

In order to familiarize herself with the environment, she went for a walk in the garden and tried every means to learn some information from the maid. Unexpectedly, she saw the scene just now in the garden and met Mills.

What shocked her even more was that the assassin also had a system.

Chu Jing replied politely, "Of course, Your Highness Mills."

Mills smiled happily and praised sincerely, "Thank you, Princess Dina. You are truly the most beautiful, bravest, and kindest lady I have ever met."

Then, with a look of regret on his face, he said, "Although I would love to accompany Princess Dinah to stroll in the garden, I'm sorry, I have some important matters that I need to attend to right away. I look forward to seeing you again at the banquet tonight."

Chu Jing: "I can do it myself very well. I hope I have not delayed Your Highness's time. I will look forward to the banquet tonight."

Mills: "See you later, dear Princess Dinah."

After saying that, Mills turned and left. Only then did Ira look away and followed Mills away.

The maid beside her said, "Your Highness, this is the elegant eldest prince, His Highness Mills. He has noble black hair and dark eyes. Nothing can make him angry or lose his composure, but his cold attitude has broken the hearts of countless noble ladies."

"Oh~ Respected Princess Dina, please forgive my presumption. If I were to give you some advice, I would suggest that you choose to marry His Highness Mills. After all, there is no other man in the world as kind, benevolent and handsome as Mills." The blood on the ground flowed along the grass. The maid said sincerely while moving her feet to avoid getting her shoes wet with the dirty blood.
