The Princess And The Lord

Lory returns to the Inn while carrying kumquat candy her mouth busy chewing the candy while she looks in a daze, she got a lot of things to think about and nothing can make her think faster than sugar, she back to her room where Shin Jiu is playing with his pets on the bed.

"Master you back!" the boy eyes lit up "Did you find him?" ​​

Lory put down the bag of cand to the table and the monkey grabs the bag and runs to the window frame while eating the candy alone, Lory sits on the stool and sigh "I did…"

Shin Jiu's face beamed but when he confuses when Lory make a sullen expression "What's wrong Master?"

Lory beckoned him to sit in front of her and the boy obediently come towards her after he sits Lory than start questioning him "What do you know about Qian Qi Feng?"

Shin Jiu tilted his head "Uhm…. Grandpa said he and Qian Qi Feng father is a good friend when they were young Grandpa save his life and ever since that the Qian family owed a huge debt to my Grandfather"

"Who is your grandfather's name?" she realizes she never asks this before.

"Lu Jiang Yi," said the boy.

"Lu…why you're family name Shin?" Lory confuse.

The boy shakes his head again "No, my name is Lu Shin Jiu" he said again.

Lory messages her forehead "Why you never told me?" Lory whined at the boy.

He feel guilty for lying but he didn't mean to "Grandfather said never told anyone about my family name because it would be dangerous so I never told anyone and..."

"You don't trust me?" Lory slightly hurt by it.

"NO! is not like that!" he refuted immediately "I want to tell Master but then I thought it didn't change anything and than…and than I forgot…" he said the last word with a low voice and his eyes turn red from holding his cry.

Lory feel bad for him, he only a seven years old kid and people hurt his grandfather in front of his face and he runs for his lives no wonder he can't trust people easily, he must be scared.

Lory patted his head "Okay, I understand…I don't blame you"

He slowly lifts his head "Master didn't angry?" he asked timidly.

Lory smile at him "Of course not"

Lu shin Jiu smile in relief, he glad he have a kind master although she's a little bit weird.

Lory brew her favorite tea to relieved some stress after she pours warmed tea for both of them she asked Lu Shin Jiu again "Lu family…..are you part of the Lu clan?"

Shin Jiu smacked her lips after he sips the tea "Grandfather said never believe anyone with surname Lu" he pursed his mouth angrily but it only makes him look cute.

"Why?" Lory frown, both of them come from the same family so why they hated each other.

His expression turns sour "Grandfather said the elders of Lu clan and my uncle kill my parents to get the family seal to control the whole clan"

Lory release a long exhale, another victim of greed, she wonders why a family could hurt each other just for a simple thing like throne and power, how could someone throw away the blood relation and become so cold and why everyone wanted to rule something, didn't they know is a painstaking job with a lot of stress and sacrifices not to mention the burden they must carry, why can everyone just enjoy the live the God has given.

"What your grandfather said about both of his sons killed each other, it must be hard for both of you" she doesn't want to probe farther but she needs to know everything before she can make a plan.

"My grandfather is not my real grandfather…" he suddenly said with innocent eyes.

"Than who is he?"

"He used to be the elder of the Lu clan but after what happened with my father and mother he took me away when I was one year old and we left the Lu clan ever since" Shin Jiu explain in with casual expression he doesn't remember Lu clan and he doesn't have attachment to that family he never yearn to return to that family especially after he knew that family responsible for the death of his family, he rather stay with his grandfather and his Master then return to that hateful place.

"I see…" Lory crosses her arms in front of her chest, she immerses in her thought.

Is not that hard to understand the situation it is quite a classic problem where the elder son is the special one and the other brother got jealous than he gathers the corrupt subordinated to overthrown the first brother and kill his all family but sadly the son of his brother got away, the rightful heir.

"Isn't Lu clan is in the war with Hei Shen sect?" Lory muttering.

"Yes, I heard it too, I hope Long Ming would destroy all the Lu clan?" his innocent eyes suddenly turn cold.

"You don't feel bad if that happens? There still you're family…" Lory raised her eyebrows with a probing smile.

"I don't care! Grandfather said everyone who loyal to my father had been killed only the cowards and the betrayer who remain alive, so why should I feel pity for them" he scoffed.

Well, he is not wrong to be angry but then she remember about the words 'War' and the 'Boy' what connection between the two, are they want to use Shin Jiu to win against Zhao Li Xin? How? And who is the man they kept hidden?

Lory clique her tongue exasperatedly she took the candy bag from the monkey than she plops on the chair while chewing candy, maybe its time to infiltrate the enemy territory, how troublesome…..
