A Lasted Love, Last Falling In Love
Eps: 5 The lantern

Hearing all of concubine Li's words, believe it or not, I really felt something was amiss. Didn't everyone already know I was the crown princess? even though me and the emperor's majesty have no blood relation, the emperor already considers me as his adopted son. Even though his highness the emperor was very considerate of me. I guess it was only because not long ago I fell into the pond, and was injured. It was nothing more than a father's affection for his child. Isn't that natural?

What were the concubines really thinking? wouldn't it be an exaggeration to think of me as a rival to get love from the emperor.

I'm not even interested in things that smell of power.Yes, that includes treasures, thrones, and women. I mean.man.

In this age everyone is very concerned about it. because all of it becomes the foundation of the highest achievement of honor of a clan.based on power, they do not even bear to underestimate a life, just to cover their mistakes. this kind of life is the life I hate the most. When power acts you're really going to feel like a chicken in a wolf cage. You'll never know, are you alive tomorrow? but it is certain that you will die, even though you are careful and persuade the wolf, in the end you have to accept the fact that the powerful determine life. the strongest will survive.

I just know that, I have to live well in this day and age, a really terrible time, where power is everything. To be honest, it all goes against my will, now that I don't even have an official identity in this age, I'm just a spirit that happens to enter the body of a crown princess.I don't know how long I have to pretend to be shenyou, to be someone else...you have to like what he likes, and hate what he hates. I shirley, have never felt this difficult before.

Dungs... Dungs... Dungs... Dungs...

The sound of a gong punch, instantly made me realize that me and concubine Li had spoken for quite a while.

"Consideration! The lantern-washing ceremony will start soon!!! "

The lantern-washing ceremony? oh, naw! I'm late. Because concubine Li asked me to talk, I forgot everything and focused on her. There's no time left, I have to leave right now.

"Honorary concubine li, I'm sorry for cutting off your conversation. But, the lantern ceremony is about to begin! So, I beg you to retreat." I said as I walked away leaving concubine Li.

I immediately rushed with my lantern, ignored the servants who kept calling me, and ran towards the altar located right on the bank of the Sui river.

"Mr princess! please careful! The road to the altar is very steep." cried one of the servants warning me. However, I did not listen to it and ran faster.

Uh.. These clothes are really troublesome! How could one bear to wear clothes like this in the past.not to mention this crown and the few roses that adorned my head, this was really troublesome.

not being careful, I accidentally stepped on my clothes, and fell on a steep road.

" Daughter!!! "

exclaimed the servants anxiously, when he saw me who had fallen. Suddenly everyone's gaze was fixed on me.

"Shenyou's... " Shouted emperor.

However,

Wuuusssh...

I don't know if I'm dreaming or not, but now...

I'm in the emperor's arms!

all I know is, I would never have imagined it would be this close...

even I can smell her scent, feel the warmth of her embrace, and hear her heartbeat.

With his cultivation (*high level martial arts in ancient times/deep energy), he took me flying towards the altar.

"Servant!!! come quickly! " call the emperor with a thunderous voice.anyone would know that the emperor was furious.even the guests were silent for a moment.

Honestly, I have no problem for now.but, if the emperor continues to carry me like this, wouldn't it feel very awkward?

At that moment, the servants quickly arrived, including my personal servants.

"Do you know what you did wrong! "

Said the emperor in a high tone.

"In answer to the emperor's majesty, i-this is "in charge of one of the servants who seems to be a butler.so, he is in charge of all the servants in the palace.

"How dare you make a princess run towards the altar! Are you tired of living?!! "

With a turbulent rage the emperor looked at the servants with a deathly gaze, which even I thought, might make you unable to breathe.

"You guys... "

"Her Majesty the emperor!"

I quickly cut off the emperor's talk, because I knew it wouldn't end well.

"Umm. I'm fine. Again...again, I myself took the initiative to run towards the altar.so, do not blame them. and again.can you descend me? It will look awkward if it continues to be done." I said while whispering.

Carefully, the emperor came down and released me from his embrace.

"Her Majesty the emperor! should the ceremony begin? shouldn't we hurry?"

"Hem... Alright."

Huw... Finally everything went well. the emperor immediately led me to the outskirts of the Sui river to wash the lanterns.that was when it arrived at night, and the girls from the noble families began to turn on and drift the lanterns. now it's my turn to turn the lantern on and off.

I immediately took my lantern and turned it on. Yet...

Tek,tek,tek

The sound of rubbing stones in my ears.

Huuh, by the way turning on the lanterns should not use direct fire. So must swipe the stone to make fire. really troublesome right? To a modern person like me, living in this age.that is, an age where all that is easily complicated!

It's been almost 30 minutes, the noble ladies are even almost finished, but I haven't managed to make a fire. I panic and worry, because my lanterns symbolize the greatness of the emperor.if, I don't,the lantern does not shine, does that mean that I am the same as humiliating the emperor?

But after all, this stone is crazy!

I've rubbed many times not to let out fire, just hot...I'm really upset right now!

"Shenyou, is everything okay? "

"Your highness emperor take it easy, this will definitely work! "My greeting while speeding up the way I rubbed the stone.

The emperor laughed silently, looking at me who was trying to make fire.
