The Return of the Princess
Episode 9
The Taoist Minister's Residence
We leave the story of the journey of Princess Yueji, Yi Mei and Yi Cao first and see the handsome man named Yingjun at the residence of his parents. After several days of bedridden, Yingjun finally came to his senses.
"You're awake, son! How are you feeling now?” said the mother who came to bring medicine and a bowl of porridge and put it on the corner table
“. . .Why am I here?” lirih
“You don't remember what happened?”
“Ugh. .” groans while holding his head while trying to sit down
“Lay alone, you are still weak and need a lot of rest!” suggestion
“It's okay, I've been better, bi. But what happened to me?”
“Have not thought about that first the most important thing now you're fine. I bring you porridge, eat while warm and drink also the medicine so that you recover” quickly
“Thank you, aunty” slowly spent bribe after mouthful of porridge in that bowl. Although it had been 20 years, Yingjun still could not call Xuejie MOTHER. But with a big chest, he still watched her and loved her. Xuejie is Yingjun's second wife. Her birth mother, Wu Qingwei, was never known to exist.
“As Hua ‘er takes you home in a state of full wound your father is very worried. He even directly told some people to find out who did all this to you”
“Then. . Where is dad now?”
“He's at the Palace, there's some urgent things he has to finish. Take the medicine first and rest again, I will tell your father later if you are aware”
“. . .SISTER. .!” it was loud and entered in a hurry
“Hua ‘er, Take Care of Your Attitude!” snarled by Mother
“Sorry Mom, I'm just too happy after hearing that brother has regained consciousness (his shoulder is down) Brother, how are you doing now?”
“Em, It's been much better. Thank you for asking.” The urge remains in a soft tone
“So I'm just worried. When me and Uncle Pubu found brother in the woods with a condition full of wounds I thought brother already. .” was reluctant to continue his words
“Hua ‘er what do you think? Already, don't disturb your brother and let him rest!”
“How long have I been asleep?”
“You fainted for three days”
“Auntie, I've been here long enough I'd better go back to Changhu. Uncle Pubu must have been very worried because of me.” Uncovers his blanket and lowers his right leg from the top of his bed
“Your father is also worried about you, he has not seen you aware so go after your father back” hold him back from leaving
“I'll see him myself later” because it can't be prevented, he left anyway
“Alright if that's what you want. Let Hua ‘er take you!”
“No need bi, i. .”
“Good ma'am, I will deliver it safely. No rejection, Mr. Handsome! I'll wait for you outside, quickly get ready!” Yingjun was unable to dodge because of his sister's sweet attitude which even made him smile thinly.
The horse-drawn carriage was waiting for him outside the residence and it was seen Hua ‘er who was already inside then invited him to enter so that he could get to Changhu Inn immediately. Along the way the small talk is created by the sweet mouth of Yingjun's sister who strafe him with a barrage of questions.
“You read the contents?” looking at Xia Hua's face
“Almost flinched! Ah, no brother! Actually just a little hehe. . I just saw a name listed there and then I fold it back and I give it to Daddy”
“Dad would have misunderstood. It's good if you don't read it. .. You're a kid, don't need to know the adult affairs”
“Congratulations, fortunately my handsome brother is unsuspecting . .I'm 17 years old, isn't that an adult?”
“You still whine when you ask for something, what is it called adult?” teasing him
“Stop poking fun at me!” answer by putting on a sour face
“Alright, alright. Stay a kid so I can tease you every day” pinches cheeks
“Huh! Pain !”
“You are. .” spoiled attitude of the sister makes her smile. Although their status as stepbrothers, but do not eliminate the affection between the two and still behave like siblings
“Ah, I forgot one thing. . .Who was with my sister at the time?”
“What do you mean?”
“As we searched for brother in the forest, we saw someone waving a cloth from the ravine where he fell. Thanks to that cloth we were able to find the brother there, but after some people who went down to bring the brother up there was no one there except the full body of the brother
with blood and a hand held up. The doctor also said that brother had taken a potion that makes energy in recovering by itself”
“Maybe it's Jianke?” his loyal bodyguard
“Cannot be. He had just arrived when my brother had reached the top. Besides what I saw wasn't just one person” remembers it back
Somebody? What I see is not a mirage but real? It turned out that even in a semi-conscious state, Yingjun knew the whereabouts of Yueji who was helping him at the time
“Kak?. . .Sister?” disrupts his daydream
“. . .Sir, please stop the train!” it was from inside the car
“Loh, why stop? It's still pretty far, brother!”
"Introduction to him until here, you come back!”
“But Mother told me to take you all the way to Changhu while this just arrived at the city market. What if mom gets mad when she sees me coming home fast and lets you go back alone?” it's a chatty little girl
“Your mother won't do it. Already. .come back! Oh, there's one more thing, next time something happens don't ever go alone, just tell someone else you don't have to come along because it's too dangerous. Understand?” his advice to his only sister while rubbing his head, without a pretext Xia Hua immediately nodded and Yingjun continued on his way to Changhu on foot leaving Hua ‘er, which was not the case, as soon as he was familiarly called in the crowd of the week. Along the way, he ranted about someone mentioned by his sister and kept trying to remember her.
“Who is that guy? Is it true that he is neither Jianke nor just an illusion of mine? (his murmur) Already, I better buy something for uncle” to a cookie vendor's kiosk
“Please give her mooncake one!” say two people at the same time so that they look at each other. It turned out. .The voice came from Yingjun and Yueji who both wanted mooncakes at the stall.
Finally fate brought them back. How did Yueji react when he saw the man he saved had recovered and was now right in front of him? Greeting or even running away?
