The Princess And The Lord

At another place in Yunmo kingdom, a beautiful woman was busy doing embroidery in her room, her hand move was swift and nimble showing how skillful she is. The maids behind her watching her mistress attentively, no one speaks because they don't want to ruin their mistress concentration.

Suddenly the eunuch hollers in a loud voice to announce the crown prince arrival, the lady movement paused, she didn't surprise just slightly looks curious, with the maids help she put away her needlework then fixed her dress to look presentable then she stands gracefully with both hands clasped on her stomach.

Not long after the handsome man with luxurious bright blue robes enters the room with a gentle smile, the flying green dragon symbol on his chest shows his high position as royalty. Immediately all the maid and eunuchs in the room kneel on the floor to greet him while the lady only bows slightly because of her high status, disparity her position from the other slaves.

"Greeting first royal brother" she bowed her head.

"How are you Xue Liang?" he kindly returns her greeting.

"I'm well first royal brother, thank you for your concern" she answers politely. Although it might sound distant, hence this is how the royal family interact in front of other people, as the Emperor children, they are expected to maintain their courtesy and dignity in front of other people.

After exchange pleasantries, they relieve all their maids and servants so they can talk privately only a few personal servants stands in front of the door to cater their master need when they were called.

Youya pour a cup of tea for the Yun Fang Zi elegantly then say: "It's rare for you to visit me at this time, to what do I owe the pleasure?" she said with gentle expression.

He accepts the tea courteously and says; "It's because the incident involved the Sanguan family and The royal prince with Hei Shen sect, I think you already heard the rumors"

"Oh, I did…the rumor already spread like wildfire that first miss from Sanguan family tried to snatch long Ming wife pet and got hurt in the process, a lot of people question Sanguan Li Ye behavior and many noble families retract their proposal too" Youya make cynical smile, just like Bai Xue she isn't too fond with Bai Xue either and for the same reason too, sanguan Li Ye is too stupid and useless even for a noble lady standard.

"I'm sure Hei Shen involved with how fast the rumor the rumor spread was," the crown prince Yun Fang Zi concludes.

Yun Xue Liang softly smile "I believe so too, who else dares to speak recklessly the matter involved Sanguan and royal family openly, someone must stir the whole situation until it escalated like this...poor Sanguan Li Ye" she sarcastically said. 

Yun Fang Zi used to her poisonous mouth, he knows since they were child despite her gentle exterior his younger sister is very fierce "Oh and I heard Sanguan Jin Sheng ask you to talk with Long Ming wife"

"You knew? I just know about this today…." She pretends to be shocked.

Yuang Fang Zi guffawed "I'm not watching you but I watched sanguan Jin Sheng, so it's just a coincidence… "

Youya sips her tea quietly, although she didn't believe him completely, but at least they're always staying at the same side so it didn't bother her too much "I'm just joking royal elder brother" then she put down the teacup with a sweet smile plastered on her face.

"You should know Sanguan Jin Sheng's intention right…?"

"You mean his intention using someone else knife to kill his enemy?" she raised her brows to pretend like a fool, she covers her mouth with her sleeve and giggles "Don't worry, I will not so stupid to provoked Hei Shen sect, unlike other people I never underestimated my opponent especially after the last time I met Luo Ri Yi"

"What do you think about long Ming wife?" his curiosity pique. 

Youya paused for a second after she contemplates she quietly said "Different…."

"Different how?" Yun Fang Zi asked with a peculiar expression.

Youya rubs her cheek gently then she says; "Is like gazing the moon reflection on the pond surface, it feel close and real but when you touch...it disappeared" she mutters while rubbing her fingers.

"I agree, I saw her during the banquet, she is quite mysterious isn't she" 

"En, everything about her does not match, her background, her profession, her temperament, nothing is matched and the more I know about her the less I understand her....it's odd though because I never felt like this to anyone not even to father emperor…." She shakes her head slightly at the same time her eyes brimming with curiosity and excitement like a little girl who found a new toy.

Yun Fang Zi was intrigued, his younger sister is not one who easily talks highly about someone especially to women. Compare to his younger brother Yun Xue Liang is more bright and quick-witted compare to the Prince, thankfully she is born as a woman if she was a male she would be a tough opponent.

"When I with her, I feel like surrounded by thick fog, I cannot read her…."Yun Xue Liang shakes her head in perplexed.

"I saw her at Ping Yi Villa during the banquet, she does nothing as I imagine. The truth is I will not trust if someone told me she just a mere servant from the rural village, I find it very ridiculous, however, my own subordinate confirm the information to me, so I have no reason not to believe it.

"Could it be Hei Shen worked? We both know the vermilion palace is able to manipulate any news, that's why no one can't investigate the Hei Shen matters including the four king palace and Long Ming himself"

"Probably…." he gives a vague answer. He raised his head toward his younger sister's beautiful face "Would you follow Sanguan Jin Sheng wish?"

"Why not, is a rare chance to meet her privately, is it not?" she amused with glee.

Suddenly the crown prince has an urged to come and watch the show.

"Are you going to leave tomorrow Yue Yin?" Xi Ying leans on Ming Yue Yin's shoulder while pouting her lips.

"Yes, what can I do….the kingdom can go on without the leader isn't it?" she also reluctance to leaves. Who wants to waste their time with an old official listening to their annoying whine and complain when she can have fun and kicking ass with her two best friends, sadly she can't avoid responsibility.

"I know…" Yang Xi Ying let out a long sigh, her father is also an official she know how heavy Ming Yue Yin burden is.

"Don't be sad, is not like we wouldn't see each other again…" Lory comfort both her friends as the oldest not by her age, just in spirit anyway.

"I know…but it won't fun if we don't together" Yang Xi Ying's eyes start to moist.

"Xi Ying, don't cry….if you cry I'm gonna cry too…" Ming Yue Yin sniffle as her eyes welled with tears too.

"Both of you don't cry or I'm gonna cry, I warn you gals, I'm ugly when I'm crying!" Lory shouted but her eyes turn red too.

Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Ying face distort, their lips curl downwards and their eyes brimmed with tears, they have stayed together for quite some time, they become close like a real sister even compare to their biological family their relationship is more sincere and genuine especially for yang Xi Ying and Ming Yue Yin so when they have to separate none of them are willing even though they know this cannot be forever.

Lory hated goodbye more than anything else, she never expected that in this new world she would attach with other people as she attached with Fred and the others just in a short time "Don't you dare!" Lory raised her finger "Don't cry, you cannot cry – please don't….Yue Yin, you look like you're constipated!"

Yang Xi Ying burst to laugh, she guffawed at the same time tears fall on her cheeks and so is Ming Yue Yin, she also laughs and crying at the same time, Lory can't help acted the same, and so begin the weird series of three girls crying and laughing while hugging at each other like a bunch of lunatic.

When Su Yi enters the room to report something she confused with the scene in front of her, are they sad, angry, or happy?

"Yo…your majesty?"

Ming Yue Yin quickly wiped her tears, she sniffles before she turns her head "What?" she pretends to be calm but the red face and puffy eyes told a different story.

"Master Jin asked everyone to gather in his laboratory" Su Yi pretend she didn't see anything.

"I think is about the result examination about the strange beast," Yang Xi Ying said while wiped the corner of her eyes gently with her sleeves.

Lory also wiped her tears simultaneously with both her hands then she takes deep exhales "Right on time…."
