The Serpent Emperor's Bride

Episode 21

Madam Hao's hut

That morning at the madam Hao residence, it looked as warm as ever.

Mr. Hao was drying some medicinal herbs.

Shon and Lee prepare firewood. And prince Kai who looks improved is stretching his muscles that feel stiff.

While madam Hao and Lin were busy cooking in the kitchen.

Before long the Han prince came with some of his bodyguards.

"O'... Han. Why have you come to bring so many people to my house. Is your life in danger like Kai's, too, until you get to my house you have to be escorted by a lot of people like that?" asked Lin who saw the arrival of the Han prince.

"Good morning Mrs Hao, Mr. Hao". Brief greeting the Han prince without caring for Lin's question.

Lin felt in the cuekin was melengos. Pouty.

"I came to pick up Lin to attend the Queen's mother's invitation" Prince Han asked Mrs Hao for permission.

Hearing that Lin turned her eyeballs rapidly towards prince Han.

Kai was quite surprised. Lee and Shon were very good.

"So, I was actually invited by Her Majesty the Queen?". Said Lin in disbelief.

"Invited in the palace. Must be a lot of good food. Also if I'm being nice, it will definitely get a lot of money from Her Majesty the Queen. If I get a lot of money, I can use it to pay a great healer to take out the cursed red stone in my chest. Then I can buy a lot of meat for my wedding with Than". Inner Lin while turning her eyeballs to and fro.

"Look, he's starting to think crazy again". Beo Lee knew what Lin was thinking.

Shon laughed amusedly.

"To the palace?.. What invitation did Her Majesty the Queen invite Lin to?". Prince Kai's inner self while scratching his non-itchy chin.

"All right, I'll come along". Said Lin quickly.

"Me too, I'll also go home to the palace". Prince Kai said suddenly interjected.

Prince Han was annoyed.

Queen Ghore Palace

Lin enters Queen Ghore's palace. Lin was wearing pink silk, with her hair tied in the style of a noble lady. Makes Lin look so beautiful. Her beauty managed to make the Queen's palace ladies who saw her talk about her par excellence.

Lin greeted and warmly welcomed Queen Ghore.

"So, are you Lin?". Asked Her Majesty The Queen started her casual chat.

Lin who was accompanied by Prince Han smiled warmly.

"You look prettier than what Han described!". The Queen praised Lin.

"Her Majesty the Queen overestimated". Said Lin lowly.

Not how long. Princess Ming, who heard the Queen invite a village woman, rushed to Queen Ghore's palace.

"Oh, Ming are you coming...?". Said the Queen who was surprised at the arrival of Putry Ming.

Princess Ming looked at Lin sharply. Lin who realized the meaning of Princess Ming's gaze also returned back Princess Ming's unfriendly attitude.

"Low women like you want to snatch Han away from me. Don't dream". Inner Princess Ming who was staring at Lin was full of hatred.

"Ah, yes, Her Majesty the Queen. I heard Her Majesty the Queen is having a banquet for someone special today. So is this the guy?". Said Princess Ming sweetly while staring at Lin hatefully.

Lin was indifferent. As if it did not care about the existence of Princess Ming. Prince Han who saw Lin's attitude laughed amusedly.

Princess Ming was upset. The queen realized there was a mismatch between the two of her trying to melt the atmosphere.

"Ah, okay Ming. Sit down and eat together. More is better, isn't it". Said the Queen.

Princess Ming sat opposite Lin. In front of the Queen, Princess Ming pretended to be kind to Lin. Lin remained indifferent and did not care about the existence of Princess Ming.

***

In the palace courtyard on the way home. Lin, who had left the Queen's palace, was chased by Princess Ming. Princess Ming walked quickly over to Lin.

Princess Ming pulled roughly onto Lin's shoulder. Lin was surprised and turned around.

"PAAAK.." a fairly loud slap sound landed on Lin's chubby cheek.

Lin's eyes were full of anger.

"Heh, village woman. Don't you have a mirror to judge yourself by.

You think you're beautiful then seduce Han with your ugly face. Don't you dream of getting Han". Princess Ming said.

Touching his cheek that got slapped. Lin did not budge. His eyes are red. His gaze sharply looked at Princess Ming. His breath roars. Lin was really blood riding.

Princess Ming who looked at Lin like a trance was terrified. Body goosebumps. The feather stood up.

Lin's eyes changed color, his Aura the devil mastered his. Little by little Lin's hair turned red. Putry Ming froze.

"cz... Ib.. The devil..." Princess Ming muttered at Lin's frightening change.

In a condition that almost made Lin turn into a red Devil. Suddenly the Han prince came to break up the quarrel of the two girls.

"Yes, Ming. What the hell are you doing?". Asked Prince Han who came from behind Lin's body. So it does not know the form of Lin who almost changed.

Princess Ming who realized the arrival of the Han prince also felt saved right. But not how long Putry Ming cunningly said :

"Han Look.. Lin is a demon. He's not human. Look at her sinister face" Putry Ming said as he grabbed Prince Han's arm and pointed at Lin.

Prince Han who turned his back to Lin turned his body to face Lin.

Prince Han's eyes widened perfectly. His face was red. How surprised his prince Han saw Lin's condition.

Quickly Prince Han grabbed Lin's face.

"Lin, you're okay. Who did this to you. Tell me?". Prince Han muttered as he rubbed the swollen cheeks of Chubby Lin reddened.

Yes... Lin eased his demon soul just in time before prince Han saw her. Instead of seeing his demonic form, Prince Han instead saw the results of Princess Ming's slap, which successfully made Prince Han angry with the Ming princess.

Lin pura - pura crying painfully.

"You're too much Ming, this time I won't turn a blind eye to what you did to Lin. Go and never show up in front of me again". Prince Han said firmly.

Then prince Han passed by with Lin.

Princess Ming added one point to Prince Han's hatred for her. Princess Ming hated Lin even more.

"You'll pay for what I got today". Princess Ming muttered inwardly as she stared intently at Lin full of hatred.
