The Princess And The Lord

Zhao Yi Chen left with Jin Hao for treatment and Zhao Li Xin villa turn quiet again, once again Zhao Li Xin feel bored he should keep Zhao Yi Chen longer for teasing him, it's funny watching Zhao Yi Chen desperate expression but after he left he got bored again and he missed his princess even more.

Someone suddenly knocked on his door again "Pardon Milord" another shadow guard called Mong Liu kneeled on the floor calling him from behind the door. ​​

"What…" Zhao Li Xin answer briefly.

"Master Li is here" said the shadow guard.

Zhao Li Xin frowned, he doesn't know why Li Mo Zhen looking for him "Let him in" said Zhao Li Xin again.

A handsome man with gentle smiles enters the room "Lord Zhao, are you busy?" he throws polite pleasantries although he can guess the man who lay on the couch with a dazed look didn't have anything to do at all.

"I hear Xi Ying and Miss Luo visiting Xiling so how about we pick them up," said Li Mo Zhen with the same bright smiles.

"But she said she wants to stay lowkey so she didn't let me come with her…" Zhao Li Xin said in dejected looks.

'Henpeck Husband' is written all over Zhao Li Xin's face, Li Mo Zhen struggles to maintain his calmed looks "But its almost evening, she didn't prohibit you to pick her up isn't it?"

"No, she doesn't!" Zhao Li Xin immediately sits straight.

"Than let's pick them up, it would be dangerous for two women to walk alone after sundown," said Li Mo Zhen with concern looks.

"You right Master Li. Let's go than!" Zhao Li Xin face remain placid but Li Mo Zhen can feel how elated he is, he wonder what would Zhao Li Xin do if he is not come, could it be he sulking in his couch the entire days? He never knew one day he would put Long Ming and sulking in a same phrase.

On the other hand, Zhao Li Xin shadow guard called Mong Liu exchanged secret glance with Li Mo Zhen bodyguard, how could they think the two misuses are alone, they are the most guarded women in the country who could touch them with the best of shadow guard of Hei Shen and Jiu Yun Sect following, eve the Emperor army would have a hard time to win against them.

Zhao Li Xin and Li Mo Zhen didn't bother to bring carriage with them with both they're Qin Gong they can move faster than any carriages, even though Li Mo Zhen is not as strong as Zhao Li Xin but he still on the King Palace level and after he cured from the cursed his power slowly grow stronger so is not that hard for Li Mo Zhen catch up to Zhao Li Xin pace but for the poor shadow guards, it is a laborious job when they try to follow they're Lords.

The light od the day slowly draining and the blue sky gradually turns to velvet and pink, the evening start to come when two black and white shadow figured bounce from one building to another in a light-speed until their figure becomes blur, Zhao Li Xin run in the normal pace while Li Mo Zhen used a bit more power to catch up with him but its different story for they're shadow guards.

All of them are panting they all cover in sweat they din't know should they be happy to have such a powerful Masters or should they're cry instead, all of them cheered inwardly when they see the Xinling building.

At the same time, two girls immersed in a discussion.

"I know what song should I play but where is should play it" Yang Xi Ying sigh "And that Tang Mei Yi still monopoly the stages, she used to play Gu Qin for hours before she stops" Yang Xi Ying stare at the wooden stage on the large area on the first floor, it usually used as a place for performance like dancing, singing, music playing from the scholar to the young talented noblewomen to show off they're talent.

There is not much a place like this place that lets them show off they're ability other than formal gathering or banquet this is also another reason why Xinling is so popular.

Lory follows Yang Xi Ying gaze she also agrees that Tang Mei Yi will monopoly the staged for herself and they're's no way they can drag her down without making a ruckus, Lory let out a long heaved than she shifts her gaze back at the painting of a woman playing Gu Qin under the plum tree.

Lory eyebrows slightly furrow she unconsciously tilted her head while staring at the painting, Yang Xi Ying notice Lory odd behavior.

"What's wrong?" yang Xi Ying got curious.

Lory pursed her lips "Is they're any plum tree here?"

"Not that I know of…why?" Yang Xi Ying asked.

"Than it would be odd…." Lory muttering with quiet voice "Everything in this painting has its own replica inside this place, the pond, the bridge, the flower even the stone lamp is the exact replica from every painting"

Yang Xi Ying nodded "You right, it seems the owner try to created this place with the imaged of his Lover…another sad love story I think" yang Xi Ying smiles turn bitter, she used to think what happened with her and Han Yuan is the worst could happen for a woman but after she knew what happened to Li Wei Han she can't stop thinking how fortunate her situation was.

"So where is the Plum tree?" Lory crosses her arms in front of her chest, she felt that tree has significant meaning because the painting slightly has a different feeling from other paintings, this one seems….painful but enchanting at the same time.

Suddenly Yang Xi Ying clapped her hands "Oh, I remember something!" she exclaimed "They're is no Plum tree but there is a half-dead tree in the middle of the man-made lake behind this building"

"Where is it?" Lory's eyes grew widened.

"Follow me!" Yang Xi Ying turns around, both of them walk at a quick pace while Mong Ki and Mong Yi following them closely, just when they want to out of the building suddenly someone holds Yang Xi Ying wrist.

When Yang Xi Ying realizes it was Gu Lian Fu hands she feels sudden goosebumps creeping in her skin she swings her hand harshly away from his grip, Gu Lian Fu was stunned when she saw her reaction he feel his heart tinge with pain.

"How many times I told you, DO NOT touch me!" Yang Xi Ying said in disdain.

He knew she hated him but he never knew it was this much when the last time this girl smiles to him Gu Lian Fu clenched his fist the warmed from her hand already disappeared, he scared when he imagined he could never feel her warm again.

"Why are you keep running around in front of me, is it because you miss me, should you accept my proposal before?" he said with half blank and half hopeful expression.

Yang Xi Ying's face turns red his reaction make him slightly happy but then her next words stab right to his heart.

"Is there no brain inside you're head!!" Yang Xi Ying berated in a high voice which attracts everyone's attention including Tang Mei Yi.

In Lory's head, there is only one question 'WHY?'
