EMPRESS TO PRINCE

CHAPTRE 25

Arana talks with Prince Jikxi about several things, until Arana remembered the figure of a mysterious man who always met her even has become Arana's current partner.

"If the mysterious man knew, prince Jikxi wanted to marry me, would he help me to thwart prince Jikxi's plans?" arana asked in her heart, remembering the mysterious man she knew also wanted Arana to be with him, Arana thinks it's possible that the mysterious man can help Arana to escape her engagement to the prince of Jikxi, which sooner or later the marriage decree will surely soon arrive at the residence of this minister of Huan.

"Ehem, the day is getting dark glorious, isn't the event still going to continue later tonight?" said Arana basa stale in order to banish the prince Jikxi subtly, because if using forced means surely the prince sucks it can fight Arana easily.

"are you trying to kick me out?" asked Prince Jikxi in a pressing tone.

"that's not so, in three hours the event will start soon I need to prepare myself like the other miss" explained Arana.

"so you have no intention of expelling me?." evil grin prince Jikxi.

"of course the servant does not dare, however the prince is a member of the kingdom" said Arana fast.

"looking at you who are so obedient, I will let you go today" prince Jikxi said and left the Arana residence.

"huh, it's a good thing that this annoying guy quickly left" Arana muttered in relief.

After the departure of Prince Jikxi, Arana wrote a letter to the mysterious man who until now Arana did not know his name.

Arana's letter was sent through a soldier given by a mysterious man some time ago, only that way Arana can contact him, because Arana herself does not know the origin of the mysterious man. (his name is also a mysterious man of course his origin is also very mysterious) but actually not because Arana who does not know the origin of the mysterious man but Arana who never once asked or discussed about the mysterious man's origin to his people directly, so Arana knows nothing about the man.

The contents in the letter wrote how Arana refused her engagement to the prince of Jikxi on the grounds of wanting to have a life that arana longed for. (i.e., a free life with the status of being the number one businessman in the imperial city of Minday) because the mysterious man knew Arana better than anyone Arana knew, so Arana did not hesitate to express her thoughts.

Arana asks the mysterious man to help her escape from the powerful prince Jikxi, Arana was aware that Arana would never be able to deal with the Jikxi prince who in fact had the highest power in this empire at such a young age. (18 years old) but it's possible that the mysterious man can match the power of the Jikxi prince Arana thought.

Arana believes in the power of the mysterious man because she has seen firsthand the mysterious man who is able to lead an extraordinary army alone without being noticed by anyone including the Emperor himself, it convinces Arana if the mysterious man is able to fight the power of the prince Jikxi.

"hopefully the mysterious man will help me get away from the annoying prince" Arana said expectantly.

While on the other hand, the letter had reached the hands of the mysterious man who was referring to it, the man smiled meaningfully while continuing to read the letter that was in his hands.

"heh, my little girl is so heartless" muttered the mysterious man who was none other than the prince of Jikxi himself.

"for the sake of being detached from me, she was even willing to ask another man, doesn't this look very painful?" her words smiled bitterly.

"like her, I had to give a little punishment to my mischievous little girl in order to become a wayward child" a sly grin on the face of prince Jikxi while burning a letter from Arana in the fireplace.

Night has arrived, the event is again carried on so festively as if forgetting the incident that happened last day.

Although this afternoon so many things were surprising, like no one was affected because of her or trying to stop the ongoing event, evidently now all the nobles have forgotten the incident that happened last afternoon and it looks they are all enjoying the celebration that is running with a smile on their faces.

The royal lords of honor were gathered together with the princes, while the young ladies were so cool in casting their charms in celebration as if they were the stars, and the young lords of the nobility of course enjoyed all the refreshing scenery in their eyes.

Everyone was very busy observing and judging the one on the show, unaware that a woman was talking to a servant while handing over a suspicious powder to the servant, after that the waiter left the event quietly as if nothing had ever happened before.

But alas, the interaction of the two people was clearly seen by Arana and arana of course knew what kind of powder was in the servant's hand now,seeing that all arana could only smile mockingly at the woman who told the servant.

On the one hand the princes were busy talking to the royal officials, like him even though he was in celebration of the conversation about politics could not be avoided, some of the men with high status were very excited to talk about political matters.

The parents working in the kingdom were trying to take the jikxi prince's heart by bragging about some of the little things they had done for the empire (or in other languages: boast of their small contributions during their time as royal officials)

Who knows about the contents of the mind of Prince Jikxi who was feeling very sick of the current state, the intention of the heart wanted to see the beauty of the arana but instead had to talk to some idiots in his kingdom.

The atmosphere in the event looked very about and the event went according to the wishes of the minister of Huan, the old man hoped that there would be no more chaos tonight like at noon, minister Huan was already feeling quite embarrassed because of Bai min's bold look but was unable to prove her skills, so instead humiliating the residence of the Huan minister was no longer as proud as the year before, instead, because of that, the minister hopes that tonight's event will continue to run well until the end

But maybe the hope of the Huan minister will be lost, caused by a woman who was watching the surrounding carefully from now on.

Seeing the surroundings that looked so orderly that Bai min was excited, he had prepared long enough to welcome tonight, Bai Min wanted to look so beautiful to the man she was trying to be with Bai min forever.

With such luxurious grooming and high self-confidence Bai min came to the officials who were talking to the princes, her beautiful and graceful appearance as if hinting to all young ladies that until anytime Bai min is still her star.

But of course Bai min's goal was not just to show off what was attached to his current self, but to Prince Jikxi, the one who had taken his heart for a long time.

"graceful greetings, may I have a toast with you" Bai min said politely and looked very graceful to the prince of Jikxi

"of course" said Prince Jikxi with his flat expression.

Bai min asked the waiter to give two glasses of wine to himself as well as the prince of Jikxi for a toast, early on his bai min was afraid that Prince Jikxi would reject his invitation to toast with him and ruin any plans that had bai min stacked neatly before him, but it turned out that everything was going as it should, it made bai min very bar spirit looking forward to the results of his plan.

"Let's Prince" Bai min said as he raised his wine glass and drank it with a single sip without any hesitation.

Without answering the call Jikxi also raised her wine glass and drank the contents inside without leaving a drop.

"Thank you, your majesty for giving face to this lowly servant, may I still talk to you" asked Bai min with a sweet smile

"as he could not, I had other business" coldly prince Jikxi then hurried away leaving the celebration after putting down his wine glass.

Seeing the departure of prince Jikxi of course Bai min did not want to let go of him just like that, what else after seeing prince Jikxi drink the wine that was in the glass earlier, bai Min quickly chased after the steps of prince Jikxi.

"Your majesty why are you so in a hurry?" bai Min asked who had equalled the steps of prince Jikxi.

"what are you following me for?" hardik prince Jikxi was very cold as if he did not want to be close to Bai minm

"why do you have to do that to me my dear prince Jikxi?, after all we will be together and you will be mine not the unlucky bearer." straightforward Bai min boldly without the slightest fear.

"you!.." prince Jikxi was very angry with Bai min's words, but he could not continue his words when dizziness suddenly struck his head, and can be felt the body of prince Jikxi fell in the arms of Bai min.

The last thing that prince Jikxi saw, a sly smile was clearly drawn on Bai min's face while hugging his body.
