Shen Xiao Lu walked in with light steps breaking the silence of the corridor that afternoon. He lowered his head while hesitating. Suddenly the memories of the past flashed through his head.
He had just turned four years old. She went to her mother's room accompanied by a nanny. But there, how surprised the little girl was when she saw her mother.
"Is Mom sick? Waiter, quickly call the healer!" exclaimed little Shen Xiao Lu with an anxious face.
His mother chuckled and then got up from her seat. "Mother is not sick, baby. Look, mom is very healthy, isn't she? Why can you say that?" He stretched his hand out showing that he was fine.
"Don't lie. My mom said lying was not good. Now look, if the mother is fine where might the mother's stomach be this big?"
The atmosphere was silent for a moment, everyone who heard it stupefied. A second later laughter erupted in the room. His mother and the servants laughed out loud after hearing the little girl's words.
"What a funny thing!" Little Shen Xiao Lu even sulked.
"All right, all right, my dear. No one laughs anymore" his mother said, trying to stop the laughter. And so do the servants.
Mother approached him and gently pulled his arm. Then he again sat down on the chair with Shen Xiao Lu standing beside him.
"Honey, listen to your mom. Xiao Lu's mother's favorite will soon become a big brother" he said.
"A little sister again?" little Shen Xiao Lu chirps.
Mother stroked Shen Xiao Lu's hair lovingly and softly.
"really. Which is now an inbred sister. She was petite, so Xiao Lu had to be a big brother who could take care of her later. Loving sister like mother loves Xiao Lu. Xiao Lu can, right?"
Hearing this, Shen Xiao Lu nodded his head at his age, which he did not understand at this time what his mother said.
Day change day.
The moon changed.
One day the people in the palace passed by carrying happy news. "The queen will give birth." That's what he heard from one of the maids.
Instantly Shen Xiao Lu ran excitedly towards his mother's room. Upon arriving there, he saw his father who was about to enter the room.
"Yahanda!" shen Xiao Lu exclaimed with a joyful look.
The Emperor's father stopped his footsteps then turned his head slowly. How shocked he was when Shen Xiao Lu saw the look on his father's face filled with uneasiness.
After which, the Emperor's father continued his steps and entered the room. Yet Shen Xiao Lu had yet to catch up, the door was tightly shut by the guards there.
Shen Xiao Lu was not out of his mind. He then ran to the grounds on the side. Unfortunately, the height of the adult's arm only makes it unable to peek from the window.
Finally a nanny arrived. Gasping for breath he said, "Miss where have you been? I'm looking everywhere not even here. Miss, let's go back to the room" he asked.
Instead of replying, Shen Xiao Lu spread out his hand instead. "Take me! Hurry along! I want to see what's going on inside" he asked.
The babysitter did not immediately agree, instead there was doubt on his face. "N-miss, we better get back to the room. If the Emperor finds out he'll punish me" he added.
"No will! Hurry fast!"
Because her coercion left the nanny with no other choice. He carried Shen Xiao Lu and brought him closer to the window. From there, he could clearly see the situation inside there.
"Mother," he said softly as he watched his mother lying helplessly as she endured the pain.
"Birth? It is like removing a baby who is in the stomach through the womb. So far, that's all I know, miss."
"Is that painful? I saw his mother crying and in pain."
"People say giving birth is very painful. One interprets that childbirth pain equals pain when 20 bones are broken together."
Shen Xiao Lu closed his mouth in surprise. His eyes began to glaze over. "Will Mom be okay?" ask her with a trembling voice.
Days change. Shen Xiao Lu saw a wooden crate lying in the hall. People were crying in front of him.
Since then, she has never seen her mother again. His heart believes, if there is 'coming', then there will be 'go'. The arrival of his sister and the departure of his mother. It was what instilled hatred in his heart.
As the two of them got older, little Shen Xiao Lu always bothered Shen Yun Ja. Stilted him to tears and even tore his beloved doll until he was sad and fell ill.
It continues to do as a form of venting his frustration on his sister. And even he forgot his mother's message to always love and care for his sister.
The memory ends with tears coming to the ground. Shen Xiao Lu who noticed that then wiped away the trace of tears on his cheeks.
Accidentally, he passed by two servants who were chatting. "Did you know? The butler moved me from the laundry room. At first I was happy, but after knowing that I had to serve that stupid woman, I felt so fed up!"
"I don't think it's just you, me either. Tch! I don't know what nightmare last night, "reply with one.
"But it doesn't seem bad either. I heard, she's just a stupid woman, she must be easy to bully and can squeeze."
"Hihi, that's right." They giggled, and it was heard by Shen Xiao Lu.
He stopped his footsteps and twisted his body. With a cold and furious look, Shen Xiao Lu stretched out both his hands then grabbed the hair of the two maids.
"Aarrghhhh!" shout them.
Their cries invited a handsome man to approach.
"Aarrghhhh! It hurts! Who're you!" the other beaver.
"I heard you just talked about someone and wanted to bully him. Right so?" tanyakanya.
Seeing this, the man did not remain silent. He blocked Shen Xiao Lu's hand then said, "let go! It is not good for a beautiful Miss to be violent towards a subordinate like this."
Shen Xiao Lu fell silent then looked at the man with a cold face. Getting such treatment, the man even replied with a smile.
He felt disgusted at the man's smile, let alone with the hand blocking his arm. Finally, Shen Xiao Lu removed his hands from the two maids hair very roughly. Then he pulled his hand from the man.
Shen Xiao Lu looked at the two maids who were grimacing in pain. "I warn you. If I hear you oppressing my sister, even though I am in Long country all of you I will teach you a lesson that you will never be able to forget for the rest of your lives!" threaten her.
After that Shen Xiao Lu turned around and left without saying a word to the man.
However, Shen Xiao Lu's attitude seemed to have caught the man's attention. "Who is he?" ask the two servants.
"If it's not wrong. She is Shen Xiao Lu, the elder sister of Shen Yun Ja, the second prince's empress," replied one of the servants.
The man smiled smirked as he lamented the departure of Shen Xiao Lu. Until finally his personal guard said, "the second prince is waiting for you. Come, my lord Zhou Fu."
