The Princess And The Lord

Lory and Ming Yue Yin ride the carriage before Xie Xiu Wei and his Minion come so they don't know what kinda ruckus happened after they left. Lory peeks outside from the window carriage the street is filled with small stall and people walks by on the side of the road is a lively morning, if not because her condition Lory would rather walk by foot then cramp herself inside the carriage box, Lory got bored inside the carriage than she starts to chat with Ming Yue Yin.

"Hey, what happened with the Empress and Qian Mu Ting?"

​ ​

"The Empress got demoted from her position and Qian Mu Ting was automatically drag down by her mother" she casually said without leaving any pity for the mother-daughter duo.

"Really?" Lory eyes bulged in surprise "I though they throw all the responsibility to Nan Yu Wei and wash they're hand?"

"They try…" Ming Yue Yin sneered "But it didn't change the fact the empress sends the soldiers to hurt me and you and Yuan Shao also reveal my identity as Empress so this becomes an international problem, someone has to take the blame and The empress was pushed to take the fall" she shrugged her shoulder nonchalantly, she already predicted the emperor would make the empress as the scapegoat.

"And Qian Mu Ting?" Lory squints her eyes.

"Whether she knows what happened or not, she was a presence when the incident happened and no one would believe the empress never share his though to her daughter, although she was acquitted from all the charges Qian Mu Ting has lost her position as the Empress daughter and that huge," said Ming Yue Yin.

This is the man's world where women have so little to decide her own life, for Qian Mu Ting losing her position, is the same losing control of her own future. At first, she can rely on her own mother to give her a good future but after her mother loses her position who else she could rely to, definitely not her Father emperor, from the old day's women was treat like bargaining chips who knew if someday the emperor will give Qian Mu Ting to somebody who can benefit they're Kingdom.

Lory suddenly becomes quite honestly, she didn't hate Qian Mu Ting that much. Even though she tries to steal Zhao Li Xin from her and collude with her Mother and Nan Yu Wei to get rid of her but Lory never wishes for Qian Mu Ting to suffer, she understand Qian Mu Ting is young and a little bit 'two faces' but who's never make mistakes in they're life. That's why she already forgive whatever mistake Qian Mu Ting has done to her, for Lory she is more lenient to people who try to harmed her rather then people who try to harm her loved one, she can forgive Qian Mu Ting easily but she never forgave Nan Yu Wei.

Love is a double-edged sword for her, just like Arthea said; love is her gift and her cursed.

"We arrived" Ming Yue Yin voice awaked her from the daze.

Girsha flew out of the window without waiting for her, Lory put on her mask and lift her hood, At the outside, Su Jing lifts the curtain than Ming Yue Yin and Lory descend from the carriage because the street around them quiet no one notice a bunch of people enters the desolated building.

"Wait here!" Ming Yue Yin orders her subordinate.

"All of you wait here and make sure no get close to this place" Lory also orders her shadow guard to stay.

"Yes, young Madam!"

"Understood, you're majesty!"

They both said in unison.

Ming Yue Yin and Lory enter the gate, the only thing lay in front of them is desolated yard and wrecked building but than when the wind blow they can smelled faint scented, is a familiar scent for Lory, she take a deep breath to inhaled the scent than she walk to the main building.

Carefully she opens the door and when she opened the door she was stunned with awe. The Bluebell cover the floor and the furniture, the flower vines circle around the table leg and wooden pillar, half the wall also cover with the flower and the vines climb to the stairs and the railing, everything cover with blue and deep purple colors when the butterfly fluttering between the flower it makes the place like a abandoned garden, its almost surreal.

Ming Yue Yin also amazes by the sight in front of her, when the sunlight shined from the cracked on the ceiling and butterfly fluttering above the flower the view in front of her is like a dream.

[Lory is time….] Girsha perch on the half wrecked wooden railing, he reminds her not too wasted more time.

[Okay…] Lory take a long deep breath and she closed her eyes, she spread her arms and suddenly the flower turn to purple light just like fireflies, the light floating in the air than a second later everything sucked to Lory body in a speed of light and her body suddenly cover with bright purple light, the wind twirl around her and the flower turn to dust.

Everything happened less then a minute but enough to make Ming Yue Yin dumbstruck, her mouth hanging open and her eyes bulged widely, even though she had witnessed Lory power inside her dream but dreaming and see it for real is two different things.

The room becomes quiet and they're are no traces of any flower from before everything disappeared as if in never exist in a first place, Lory open her eyes she feel the mana warmed her veins, she smiles in content than clapped her hands a few times "All done!"

Ming Yue Yin snapped back from her stupor "Oh…okay"

Lory open her left wrist she makes a circle with her index finger and blue circled immerged on her wrist and her body once again illuminated with dimmed purple light than she covers her faces with her palms when she lowers her palms away from her face Lory appearance return to Luo Ri Yi again and so her bluish wavy hair turn dark and straight again.

"How do I look?" she asked Ming Yue Yin.

"Ordinary…"she replied earnestly.

Lory nods in satisfied "Good.."

Lory and Ming Yue Yin left the building, only after a few steps they were surprised by the loud 'Boom' from behind them, they look each other first before they turn around turns out the building suddenly crumbles to the ground, Lory shrugged her shoulder than walk away, Ming Yue Ying also didn't bother.

"So wanna grab some food on the way?" Ming Yue Yin grab Lory's arms.

"Not now, I have worrywart husband at home, who knows what he's doing when I'm not home…"

"He might complain he was bored…"

"Maybe…"
