The Return of the Princess
“My husband! (come Xueji bring tea and snacks for her who is daydreaming) What is bothering you?”
“. . .Um, just a royal” affair he said quibbled
“Really? If so, where's Yingjun. Hua’er said she's here to see you, have you met her?”
“Have. . .He just went”
“Go? Why rush once, you pissed him off again, didn't you?
“You are this, where has he never been upset with me?”
“Then, what does he want to talk to you about?”
“She just told me that the Princess was injured by being attacked by someone last night”
“What? Then, how is it?”
“I also don't know for sure, he just said that the Princess is not yet conscious and is still receiving treatment by her sister”
“We have to get there soon to see how things are, my husband”
“You're right. But you better, if you want to go get some guards to escort you there or you can go with me. I'm afraid that person will appear again later”
“Alright, I understand. I'll wait for you to come home and we'll be there together. How?”
“So better”
Changhu Inn, Yueji room
On the bed his tiny body lay weakly helpless. Sweat poured, the body shook, his face looked pale and restless and his breath blew irregularly. Apparently he was having a nightmare that suddenly woke him from his long sleep.
“Huuh, huuh (a long breath that is repeatedly exhaled) why am I here and why do I feel pain in my chest? Where's my brothers?”his mind was trying to sit while holding his chest
“You're awake, miss? (says Uncle Pubu who came to bring him porridge) for a moment, Uncle call the doctor first!” help him sit down and leave
“Uncle. .” call with weak voice
“Iya miss, you need something?” reverse direction
“Where are my brothers?”
“They're going out and leaving Miss to Uncle. Hold on, Uncle call the doctor first!” step out of the room
It wasn't long for Yingjun to come
“You're aware?” carrying a bottle of Physique-boosting potion for him.
Why is he coming? Didn't Uncle say he'd call a healer for me?
“How are you doing?” sitting next to Yueji
“I'm fine, just a little sick over here (holding the sick part) Why did you come here? Where's Uncle?”
“Being preparing food. I brought you another Physique Strengthening Potion. Miss Yi Mei said that the potion yesterday was finished, so I brought it for you again. Drink first!” hand over the bottle
“You. .not lying to me and planning to kill me right? observing the bottle held by Yingjun
“Kill you? Why kill you with a poison, I could have used my hand to do it and it was easier to do to a woman who was helpless before me this”
True also what he said I, will drink it later. .”
“You have to drink it now, do you need my help to drink it?” his face is getting closer. Hearing his words, Yueji's mind led to what he had done to Yingjun, only that different positions this time Yingjun would help him drink the potion mouth to mouth.
“Ti. .No need, I can do it myself!” drink it immediately so that it chokes and makes his chest hurt
“You all right? Slow down, no one will take it from you!” both hands held Yueji's shoulders and gave him a glass of water. Gaining the attention of Yingjun, his heart began to waver and melt in the kindness given by him.
“Thank you. .” he said shyly
“Somehow, I just remembered that it was very dark that night and then suddenly a shadow was attacking me from behind. Actually his fighting ability is not much, only he has a strong enough inner strength. When I let my guard down, he started taking out his nurse and just attacked me until I fell down and after that I don't remember anything else
“According to your brothers, he wears a black hooded robe with a mask that covers part of his face, is that true?”
“It's true. Thanks to the robe he easily hid in the dark so it was difficult to detect with the naked eye. Wait, looks like I saw his face”
“What did you say? How is it possible?”
“I used the Soul Eye to be able to read his movements and that was when I managed to unmask him. She. . .a woman, she is about forty years old, has sharp eyes, and also. .”
“And also. . . What are you looking at?”
“She has a black and Fire-shaped mark under her left ear. He also used all his nurses with his left hand, he was a Kidal”
A lefty? Why are they so similar to my mother? Is it really him who did all this?
“Hey, what's up? You know him?”
“No, it's just that the same night the royal prajutites were also attacked by him. They both suffered broken ribs and heart, you're luckier because no one survived them”
“Cracked ribs and heart? That bad?”
“Em. But, the scars on my body they did not come from left-handed attacks but from right-handed attacks. That means that the one who attacked you is different from the one who attacked the soldiers of the kingdom”
“Oh. . . Wait, my body wound is different? How do you know the wounds on my body and the soldiers are different? Don't-don't you. .” covers the front of his body
“What are you thinking? Didn't you just say that the one who attacked you was a lefty? You are also injured on the left side of the body of course the former will also be in the shape of the left palm, right?”
“So apparently?”
“Why? Do you think I checked it personally and saw that part of your body?” bring his face closer
“You. .” his upset who is being teased by Yingjun
“Ah, I forgot to ask you this?” pull his body
“What?”
“Why do you always run away when you see me? What are you hiding from me?” ask her with a serious face
“What. . .you mean? Who escaped?”
“I've always been the center of attention of women when I was outside the house. They'll automatically come near me without me asking for it. But not with you, you immediately ran away when you met me and it didn't just happen once. The owner of the Moon Cake stall said that I was too handsome so you ran away as soon as you saw my face. Do you have a phobia towards the appearance of a handsome man? If that's true, you're a real loser!”
Narcissist of this man! How did he say all that without even blinking a smile? Really sucks!”
“You haven't answered my question and are now making fun of me?”
“Who said I have a phobia towards handsome men? I just happened to be in a hurry because of an affair when I met you!”
“Really?”
“Of course! What else do you think?”
“Good that way (rise from her seat and whisper to Yueji) I thought you were afraid to fall in love with me the first time I saw me”
“You!!” regretfully keep away from the temptation of this handsome man. Smiling, Yingjun left Yueji
the one who was upset then turned around and said
“Spend your food so you recover quickly. If anything still feels bad, you can call me or Uncle Pubu” he said gently which made Yueji's annoyance subside
“I understand!” the answer is downcast
