"Jia Li 2"
10
After returning home riding Wang Chunying went straight to his sister's house, he was eager to see the servant who was rumored to be close to his sister. While waiting for him and Wang Xuemin to enjoy dinner, just think of it as adding to the energy lost from a day of riding.
"where is he ?" wang Chunying asked impatiently.
"patience big brother, a servant is calling out to him" Wang Xuemin felt a little annoyed that her brother kept asking Jia Li.
"wahs... Was he so special that a servant had to call him first to meet his master ?" wang Chunying's Goda
"don't talk carelessly !" wang Xuemin said annoyedly.
"haha... Lian, tell me what she looks like, and how does my sister treat her ?" the question immediately made Lian stiffen, she did not know what to answer. The problem was that his master was indeed treating Jia Li very differently from the other servants, but there was no way he would tell the truth to the first prince as it would damage his master's image.
"i don't know" lian finally replied.
"haha... Look at lian's face. He can't lie if something happens between his master and his servant, but he's still trying to protect his master" General Yu said.
"no, no, there is nothing between the 3rd prince and Jia Li. Really" said Lian nervously.
"already, even if there is no problem. Most 3rd princes can take her as a concubine" said yelu lightly while enjoying her meal.
In this day and age, a servant can go up to the bed of a prince or emperor. But their position remained as concubines, despite the love of the prince/emperor but, their position could not rise to the position of wife or empress because of their low status.
"don't talk recklessly yelu, I won't have a concubine. I have only one wife in my life" said Wang Xuemin, an annoyed Wang Chunying who heard the conversation could only laugh.
"prince is a bit strange now, in this world it is very natural that men have more than one wife" Ping said
"or maybe gossip if the 3rd prince is really useful ?"added again.
"hi old man sucks, don't don't just talk. Do you know if slander is more cruel than murder !!. With slander you can kill people slowly !!" the sound made everyone surprised.
A girl stood in the doorway with an angry look. His face even flushed with anger. The girl's clothes were dirty, her face and hands were splotches of blood. Wang Xuemin and Lian who saw that were shocked, and worried.
"you seem educated, wise, and classy. I can guess with certainty, you must be a noble child. But I don't expect nobles like you to believe cheap gossip.I think a man would rather spend time looking for wealth, power and women, but apparently I was wrong. I really didn't expect any guy to like gossiping, and even worse to believe unfounded cheap gossip. Do you know the gossip was made to destroy my good relationship and the 3rd prince, do you know if the rumor makes me even more hated by many people here, and do you know because of that cheap gossip I lost my best friend ! If dear can choose, I want to get out of this golden prison-like palace !!" jia Li said with emotion. Her eyes had now become red and teary as it held back the crying.
"...." the ping who heard that was speechless. He was even surprised because for the first time he was scolded by a little girl who was 10 years old.
After spilling all his emotions, Jia Li realized his mistake. Shouldn't he be disrespectful to the 3rd prince's guest, he should have been more patient even though his heart ached from his pride being trampled on.
"sorry.excuse me.ke..dumbness.me" said Jia Li stammeringly, her tears fell. Jia Li saluted, after that run away from the room, he was somewhat afraid of facing off against the 3rd prince. Jia Li could only pray that the 3rd prince would forgive him.
While Wang Chunying who saw that was just stunned. He was very surprised to see the girl he had been looking for apparently in front of him at this time. The girl he had been looking for almost to the entire imperial palace and even in the surrounding city, had apparently been nearby by herself. He felt stupid, he should have searched more thoroughly at his sister's residence so that he could meet more quickly with the girl.
"excuse me for a moment" lian's remark alerted everyone in the room. Lian saluted then immediately ran as fast as she could to chase after Jia Li. I don't know why he felt so sad to see the girl. Since Jia Li lived in the 3rd prince's palace they had been getting closer, just like Wang Xuemin, lian also felt comfortable and at home when close to Jia Li. To Lian, Jia Li was the first girl who was able to get close to her.
The awakened Wang Chunying also went after the girl he had been looking for all along. Seeing that, the person in the room also chased after Wang Chunying.
"Jia Li, wait" call lian.
Lian's call did not also make Jia Li stop running. The fast running from having long and strong legs made it very easy to catch up with Jia Li, lian grabbed onto Jia Li's arm, making the girl finally stop.
"what ?" said Jia Li ketus with tears that had soaked his face. It makes him feel guilty.
"have you come to punish me. If so, just kill me, don't torture me" Jia Li said with confidence. For Jia Li to be killed directly is much better than being tortured, because in this age the punishment of torture is very crazy.
"what are you talking about?, who would punish you. It didn't matter, after all the man was indeed wrong for believing in cheap gossip" lian's words made Jia Li feel warm. He feels defended.
"ohs... This is because of my carelessness, calm down later also healed" said Jiali.
Jia Li looked at his bloody palm, and his dirty clothes with a flat face as if he did not feel anything was wrong with his appearance.
"here I treat, it must be sick" Lian took Jia Li's arm to look at the wound, but Jia Li pulled her arm quickly.
"it's just a small wound, it doesn't hurt at all, I can heal it. But there are more painful injuries than this" Jia Li said. Jia Li hid his injured hand on his back.
"say, I'll treat him" lian bargained.
"huh... You won't be able to" Jia Li said with a disdainful laugh.
"i can, trust me. Now just tell me where the extremely painful wound is" lian tried to convince Jia Li. Lian felt very worried, she could not wait to treat the girl.
"here, in my heart. Are you able to treat my broken heart, if he does it feels like I can't stand this pain" Jia Li said, pointing to her chest.
Jia Li's heart was completely broken because, as he felt destiny was playing tricks on him. First he lost his lover, second he woke up in a world that did not know what his name was, making Jia Li lose everything from parents, friends, possessions, position, everything. Even in this world, the person Jia Li considered a friend apparently did not consider him. Depressing. Well... Losing everyone he cared about really liked him, the longing for his parents began to torment Jia Li. He could only imagine his parents to let go of longing even for a moment, he wished they were okay even though he was no longer beside them.
"you..pain heart?, you betrayed your lover ?" lian looked at jiali, for some reason lian felt her heart hurt a little.
Jia Li looked at Lian in disbelief, how could Iian think about that.
"who is he not your business, you are who I am to know my personal affairs ?" jia Li's speech felt very painful to lian. The man just fell silent while bowing his head.
"....."
"already, I'm tired" Jia Li was about to leave but her hand was held back by Lian again.
"what else ?"
"say who first?, what's your lover ?" lian's words seemed demanding.
"cih, not a lover!, is it hurt because of a lover ?. Your mind is too narrow lian. Listen yes lian, which makes people hurt or sad someone it can be caused a lot of things not just because of a lover !. Examples include losing parents, losing friends, losing property, losing the throne, and many more Lian. " Jia Li was about to step away, but Lian grabbed her hand again.
"what else is another ?!" said Jia Li who was getting angry.
"..." lian just kept quiet.
Jia Li looked at Lian's face, he seemed to understand what the man wanted. If Jia Li did not explain it the man would never let her go.
"he's a man I consider a friend. I was angry and disappointed at him for believing such cheap gossip, I thought he knew me better than anyone, apparently I was wrong. And the most painful thing was that he did not consider me as a friend.." Jia Li's words came to a halt as he watched Lian's face closer. Somehow Jia Li felt like her.
"lian, why do you want to know so much ? Don't tell me you like me." Jia Li looked at lian investigating.
"a.ah.ti.ti..dak" said Lian nervously.
"oh is that right ?" Jia Li looked at the ignorant Lian. He likes to tease Lian. According to Jia Li, Lian just likes her, not in love.
"haha... Lian, wait for me when I'm 17, I'm sure it will be a beauty capable of tearing down the empire and when that day comes never lick your words huh because... I'm afraid you'll be heartbroken" after saying that Jia Li left. Jia Li ran small towards her room, the dress that Jia Li was wearing might be dirty but it still looked beautiful and graceful. Jiali's little legs look because her dress is slightly raised, she is really very charming.
Without Jia Li and Lian realizing the conversation they were in with by Wang Chunying, wang Xuemin, and their three companions. Wang Chunying who saw that felt a fire of anger in his chest, the girl who had been interfering with his mind and his heart in the liking of the Other man, as for Wang Xuemin he felt his heart ache seeing Jia Li could be that dense with Lian. While general ping, he only watched Jia Li from a distance with his sharp eyes, watching the girl who dared scold him and hit him in public. While ye and yelu could only remain silent, they felt a sinister aura around them.
