The Princess And The Lord

Chapter 691 - The Outcome



Mong Liu saw the scened behind him and frowned, he can't help but ask "What do you think she would do, milord?"

"What do you think?" he vaguely replied.

​​

Bai Xue wasn't only betrayed sanguan Jin Sheng but she was also betrayed her master just by telling him who has poisoned him when he was a child if Sanguan Jin Sheng or Zi Quan Mei hear anything even if just a whisper, Bai Xue life would be ended without question.

They say the only way two people could hide their secret is when one of them is dead.

"Would you agree to meet her as long Ming?" Mong Liu asked again.

"Why not…?" he answers indifferently.

"I wonder why she wanted to meet you, Milord?" he mumbles.

"You asking too much…" said Zhao Li Xin.

"I – I'm sorry, Milord!" Mong Liu immediately bend his waist deeply and cupped his fist tightly.

Zhao Li Xin feign ignorant Mong Liu prattle, he's not mad only annoyed because he's to noisy "I'm going to visit my wife, make sure no one comes to my courtyard"

"Yes, Milord!" Mong Liu answer firmly.

Soon Zhao Li Xin's figure disappeared the same time he says his last word, Mong Liu strengthens his back and realizes Zhao Li Xin run at the speed of light. his shoulder slouched and his expression becomes relaxed again then he blew out his cheek.

His Lord has changed so much, he might not realize it yet, but the old Lord he knew would never answer his question this much, and when he annoyed he would shut him up using his Qi, but recently his Lord Qi didn't go as wild as it used to be. Yes, this happens after Young Madam comes.

Meanwhile, at Yunmo imperial Palace the crown Prince Yun Fang Zi was spent his leisure time at his personal lounge room near the beautiful pond. The wind gently blew the wind chimes giving a tranquil sound that made people relax. The crown prince leaned his back on the floor chair recliner while playing chess on the small table by himself.

His concentration was disturbed by the arrival of one of his personal eunuch, the man was wearing deep green robes and a black hat, he bowed his head deeply "Forgive me to disturbed Crown prince, Princess Youya is asking for an audience" the man says courteously with a slightly high-pitched voice.

Yun Fang Zi lift his head "let Princess Youya come" he nodded.

"Yes, Your highness" The eunuch reply obediently.

Actually, the crown prince had been waiting for Princess Youya's arrival, he couldn't wait to hear about her meeting with Long Ming's wife, somehow his intuition told him that everything would be far more interesting than he expected.

Not long after princess Youya come, she bows her head courteously "I'm sorry to bother your leisure time, Imperial brother"

"Don't be too courteous in front of me, please take a seat Imperial sister" Yun Fang Zi made a polite gesture to invite her to sit.

The lounge area was slightly higher than the floor so her maids had to help her lift her long skirt so Princess Youya didn't slip as she climbed the stairs, another maid held her hand to make sure her steady then she helped Princess Youya sit down, after that the maids bow their head and left the room to give them privacy.

When the maids left The crown Prince gently lifted the porcelain teapot "I have a feeling you have a pretty interesting story for me" he smiles while filling the teacup.

Princess Youya sighed, she remembered the conversation between her and Luo Ri Yi and she shook her head tiredly "More than you can imagine first imperial brother" she raised the teacup and took a small sip.

The crown Prince's face beamed with excitement "Oh, now you make me curious, Imperial sister" from the moment he lay his eyes on Long Ming's wife he already thought that the woman was not simple, after all, how could a simple woman gain Long Ming affection.

Princess Youya let out a long exhale "I don't think you will be smiling any longer once you hear what I am about to say, imperial brother" she warned him seriously.

"Oh, now you make me impatient, Imperial sister" Yun Fang Zi smiled dazzlingly.

[I forgot about this part of your Life]

[What part?] she put her hand on her knee and prop her chin lazily while gazing at the moon.

[The most boring part..] he scoffed. 

[Which part?] she asked again without retracting her gaze from the moon, it is a beautiful moonlight.

[The politic part] Girsha snorted arrogantly.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly, but she didn't make any comment, because she agrees with him. It is a boring part of her life, but what can she said, this is part of her duty as royalty.

[I don't know why people like to do roundabout ways to fulfill their wish, such a waste of time] girsha grumbled.

Lory listens Girsha complains with light chuckles, since she was a child she already used with his nagging [Well, we like to think that we are civilized creatures]

[Said the creatures who scorched the world….] Girsha made a sarcastic reply.

[I thought the first kind did the same thing?] Lory tilted her head.

[Hey, at least we honest about that. Humans used religion, nationalism, race, and whole for the greater good' nonsense to hurt each other, in the end, it's all about one man who wanted to fulfill his wishes…] Girsha snorted in disdain.

His nonstop complaining brings soft chuckles to her lips, She didn't argue with it because it's not completely wrong, we all have something that we want no matter what it cost, and she's no different. 

Sometimes war is unavoidable, perhaps it's a human curse that we can only build something after we completely destroyed it. 

They say no war that will end all wars but in Lucient History that is exactly what happened, when the founder of Harland Kingdom, King Arkheon A.R Lucient waged war on the Trident organization that wanted to eradicate the 'Gifted' people from the face of Verriond, thousands were killed and they almost genocide the whole 'Gifted' people using some kind of machine that could block the gifted power, as a result, the Gifted people was almost extinct until King Arkheon led the war.

Basically, this the war between 'The Creator' which is known as a scientist, and 'The Gifted' which is known as a magician, after thousands of years of misunderstanding and long prejudiced to each other race, the enmity between the two race finally erupted, and the Trident organization used this opportunity to start the war.

After King Arkheon won the war, he built the Harland kingdom with the hope that the two races that were willing to put their difference aside could live in harmony, of course not many people were willing to throw away their thousand years of hatred from each other. 

So the Harland Kingdom was quite small at the time. However, years after years, and a few decades later Harland grew rapidly and their territory grew bit by bit and soon they would recognize as a safe haven for anyone who wishes to live in harmony and peace. King Marcus once said to Lucas and Lory 'End the wars before the wars end us' 

And how to stop the war? One of them is through diplomacy. So Lory and Lucas learned about politic from a very young age, perhaps they learned it sooner than any aristocrat family and that's what make them proficient although neither Lory and Lucas fond of this subject.

Suddenly a dark figure Looming behind her, Lory was startled she almost throws her dagger.

"What are you doing on the roof?" 

"Li Xin you scaring me!" lory patted her chest in relief.

He realizes he had done something terrible, his demeanor softens a little then he cupped lory hands "Look, your hands are freezing" his forehead creased showing his displeasure and at the same time, he used his Qi to warm her up.

The warmth run from her palms to her chest and spread on her whole body all of a sudden she feel engulf with warmth is like soaking in a hot tub, Zhao Li Xin's worried face made her heart soar and her face blushed slightly. They have been together for two years and she still blushed whenever he touched her.

"Let's returned to the bedroom, the weather is too cold" he hugged while rubbing her shoulder to ease the cold.

Lory rests her cheek on his broad chest, she doesn't understand what kinda exercise regimen he had done to make his body so hard "But tonight the moon is too beautiful, it's been a while since I saw this moon this bright, look…." She gazing to the sky.

"But we can watch the moon from inside the room, I can brew you hot tea and I just bought dragon beard candy, and the chef make a new sweet dish….something like caramelize potato – I think" after years they have been together he knew exactly how to coax his princess.

"I never tasted that before!" Lory shriek excitedly and her eyes shined brighter than a moon itself.

Girsha sighs inwardly, nothing better to lure his princess than using sweets, however, this is not a joke because there was an incident where terrorists used sweets to Lure her in, thankfully Girsha was there, Fargo and the others also came at the right time so Lory was safe and sounds. Perhaps it sounds stupid, but this actually happened before.

Perhaps he should tell Zhao Li Xin about this, Lory obsession with sweets is not laughing matters.
