It'S MUS.TA.HIL.!!!
Shen Xueyue is a student studying archaeology and historical sciences. Only, the dynasty he lived in was completely unrecorded in the history books of his home world. It was strange, he thought. However, the writing written by An Nan was able to read.
The language he uses does not differ much from his language in his previous home world. It's just a little formal.
As an archaeologist, he is required to be able to learn various types of writings and languages used in historical times in the past. Including in ancient times.
The first thing that was implied in Shen Xueyue's mind when she learned of the biggest secret of the owner of the body she was in was, 'SHE'S A PRINCESS DISGUISED AS A PRINCE'.
In the story written by An Nan on a piece of paper, at the time the empress Yun Xieya conceived herself, Yun Xieya carelessly ate a piece of red mantou cake that accidentally fell from the body of the old woman he met while heading to the temple.
At that time, the old woman had already tried hard to prevent the Empress from eating the mantou cake. Yet who would have known that the Empress actually had an extremely stubborn nature, and was nonchalantly eating the mantou cake that made her saliva flow out.
Since she was just an old woman like a beggar, some soldiers even blocked her hands from even daring to touch Yun Xieya because of wanting to prevent her master from eating the cake that their master wanted without feeling suspicious.
In the end, the old woman could only sigh in resignation and then asked with a sad facial expression, "Baby girl or boy, which one did the Empress really want when she was born? Which is the strongest desire you want?"
Yun Xieya straightforwardly and recklessly replied, "A prince again. But my husband insisted I give birth to a daughter."
"Isn't a princess good too?" the old woman continued to press the Empress with questions that seemed to change the Empress's decision.
But unfortunately, the Empress really wanted a son in her third pregnancy.
Meanwhile, the Empress did not even know who the old lady with the seedy clothes full of patches that she had encountered back then.
The old woman could not change the fate of the Empress who would soon have a baby girl in her third pregnancy. Whereas the mantou cake he had had some sort of strange energy that others could not see.
The cake is a cake that has magic energy to grant a wish. It's just that, if the request is contrary to another request that is stronger than the owner of the request itself, then something else will happen.
This is evident from the birth of Shen Xueyue.
Because the Empress's desire was equally strong from the King's desire, a baby girl was born who had been predestined. The queen still wants the birth of her baby to be a boy. Yet healer Mu Chen could not go against the destiny of the god.
In the end the Empress learned that the birth of her baby this time was not up to her expectations. She learned of the female gender of her baby after healer Mu Chen exposed the secret by simply showing the baby Shen Xueyue who was without a thread in front of the Empress behind closed doors to just the two of them.
Of course, the Empress had definitely started to grieve and be disappointed. He could only bite the shoulder of his thumb until it bled to hold his shout out. Yun Xieya cried hysterically to find that her baby was a woman. Actually, Yun Xieya did not hate the birth of her baby who was a woman. That would make her husband, the king, even happier. But somehow he felt that if he had a daughter, that child would suffer greatly one day. It was just his hunch.
In the end, Yun Xieya could only make the identity of his daughter as a prince.
"Don't let anyone else know about this secret." the sentence was uttered from Yun Xieya's lips with an airy heart accepting her baby.
He cannot blame fate. Hating her innocent baby. It could be that a God unwittingly passed through her and her husband while they were arguing over what gender they wanted in their third pregnancy.
From then on, Yun Xieya never called his son 'My daughter', or 'My son' to Shen Xueyue. The call turned into the word 'My son' until this second.
And during the selection of servants to look after her daughter, Yun Xieya chose to take her personal servant who had been with her from her home country that she trusted the most. An Nan and An Xi. Other than the two, no one knew about Xueyue's true condition.
The royal family who knew Xueyue's condition was only Yun Xieya. The King, the Queen Mother and all the concubines of the King no one knew including the princes and princesses.
Xueyue's condition was completely sealed within the kingdom. Only Yun Xieya, healer Mu Chen and the two Xueyue confidants knew about Xueyue's condition. Even when An Nan and An Xi learned of the big secret, they were not at all stunned for too long and accepted it happily.
Suddenly Xueyue began to feel that her head was throbbing pain for the umpteenth time.
And how could An Nan know the whole story? It happened because Yun Xieya told his story in detail to all his trusted servants.
Now, the question for her was, how could Shen Xueyue's daughter in this world lose her life? Was he killed, killed himself, or something else?
An Xi simply said that when his body was found, his body was already in an unconscious state floating in the middle of an artificial lake within the palace deep enough. When his body was found, it was already cold and pale. They also believe that Princess Shen Xueyue actually lost her life when she was removed from the lake.
They did not know, what made Prince Xueyue suddenly appear in the middle of the lake like that at the time of discovery. The king also ordered his trusted general to investigate the case of prince Xueyue's drift in the midst of the King's departure at the time.
Princess Shen Xueyue, or often called Prince Xueyue, is famous for her quiet and moody personality but also cheerful if needed. Although the King was very pampering, but never seen a happy face on Xueyue at that time. Whether when Prince Xueyue was a toddler, or young.
Until the arrival of a boy to the palace caught his attention. The boy also had an interest in the figure of prince Xueyue. It was realized by King Shen Jinglong himself. Realizing this, he made a smile of relief on the corner of the King's lips. He then ordered the boy to accompany Prince Xueyue to play. At that time, they were three years old. And the King thought that maybe the boy wanted to play with Prince Xueyue because it was similar to the little brother of the boy in his native place.
The boy gladly refused.
One day, the incident where Shen Xueyue suddenly could not bear to urinate was unintentionally noticed by the boy. And for the first time Xueyue who saw how the boy was looking at him with eyes that were difficult to decipher, it scared him that the boy would find it strange and look at himself with a look of disgust.
Just then, Xueyue suddenly turned around and ran away from the boy. He huddled inside the pavilion where he lived without being met by anyone including his mother Yun Xieya who knew his identity.
Time and again the boy appeared at Xueyue's door to invite her to play, but Timeyue rejected him due to his extreme embarrassment.
The patience of the boy certainly has its limits. Sufficiently reckless, the boy sneaked into Xueyue's room as night fell silently. How surprised Xueyue was at that moment who almost shouted if only the boy did not immediately silence Xueyue's lips.
The boy warned Shen Xueyue that he would really spread the secret that belonged to him if Shen Xueyue shouted. Of course Shen Xueyue chose silence and let it go.
"I don't hate what you have. Even if you are a woman, I don't care. Whoever you are, I am still your friend. So, believe me." the statement made by the boy clearly changed Shen Xueyue's view of his true identity.
To the boy, he still assumed that Xueyue was the most beautiful prince he had ever met. Regardless of her true identity was a woman.
But people did not know about the origin of the boy who was suddenly brought into the palace by the King at that time.
The rest, An Nan and An Xi really did not know enough about his master's persona who was very mysterious and reclusive.
Shen Xueyue sighed in frustration. What the two servants told him was not enough to make him know the history of Xueyue's life in this world.
'Oh Xueyue, Xueyue who exists in this world. Why didn't you leave most of your last memories to me before you left this world? Ck! It's really troublesome for me.' The mess was desperate before he fell on the bed with his body on his back.
The night was getting late and almost at dawn. Shen Xueyue who was feeling tired finally fell down in the warm cradle of the thick blanket and the softness of the bed before drowsiness slapped her and she finally fell into a deep sleep.
.
"What's your name?" said a ten-year-old boy.
A teenage boy in front of him smiled faintly at him with slightly narrowed eyes, "Huangshulang" the boy said briefly.
The little boy was throbbing the piety inviting the boy's subtlety. "Why not your real name?"
"That's my name" said the boy. He did not want others to know his true identity for now because of the conflict that occurred in his home country before he was sent to this Hou kingdom. "One day, I'll tell you my name. So be patient and wait for me."
"Stop!" a young girl in a pink dress who was a teenager screamed with breathless breath, trying to hold a teenage boy out of the palace gate.
He clenched both his hands withstanding emotions. Biting his lower lip that almost let out a sobbing sound with teary eyes stared at the back of a handsome teenage boy who seemed to be leaving him for good.
The teenage boy turned around, with a wistful smile that looked forced upon him so visibly horrifying in the young girl's eyes.
"Why did you leave me? Huangshulang, didn't you promise me that you will never leave me? Why are you breaking your promise now?!"
"Yue'er.." for a moment the teenage boy stopped his increasingly guilty words, he could only smile bitterly and say, "Wait for me to pick you up as my Empress. I'll be here soon to see you."
The dark brown eyes of the girl were patterned with a bright radiance. He even lost his words to respond.
.
"YYY.....!!" a horse-drawn carriage with a suddenly insane horse quickly kicked the petite body of the young girl who was walking around the supermarket. And finally....
BRUUG!!
'Hu-ang.shu.'
Before the girl lost her consciousness, she called out the name of someone she had been dying to see all this time, and the next second the girl completely staggered to kiss the ground unconscious.
"Prince!" a servant screeched when he realized that his master had regained consciousness.
The girl was a little dazed by her current state when she saw the anxious look of her trusted servant who had now cried. "Stop crying, An Xi. I'm fine." Shen Xueyue had changed her appearance back to that of the men in the palace.
'Just something I seem to forget. But what?' His inner.
Many times the girl tried to recall what she had forgotten, yet she really could not remember what important thing she had forgotten. But his heart felt a void that seemed as if something most precious to him had been snatched away.
In the end, the girl gave up her intention to keep on recalling that important thing even though her heart felt pain.
When the girl grew up, she was fourteen years old and began to go outside the palace through a secret path where she happened to find herself. The girl was transformed into a man in simple clothes. Her little face she foxed became bad.
There, he found many friends who would accept him. Play together from morning to night. It lasted almost a year. Until suddenly, events that seemed to have experienced before happened again.
The girl suddenly felt the sensation of wanting to urinate near the bushes recklessly. He had indeed seen the situation around him before he actually took out his urine. However, without him noticing, a man suddenly found himself crouching with his clothes slightly exposed. The man's gaze was of course filled with question marks and a feeling of curiosity assaulted him.
"Xueyue, what are you doing?"
The startled Xueyue reflexively dropped back her robe and turned around with a stiff and clumsy body. He looked at a man he knew very well right in front of him. It really felt like dejavu to him, but he had absolutely no recollection of when the same incident had happened before.
"I-i... A-There's something going on behind my clothes. I-because it's a hurry, so I.. Um.. That's.. Haha.. Forget it." With her face turning red from embarrassment, the girl who was none other than Xueyue immediately ran away from her place.
One day, though,...
"I-i... I, I love you, Wen Tong"
"love me? You?" the man named Wen Tong looked at Xueyue from head to toe, as if judging with a disgusted and condescending expression. Then he snorted as if scolding, "Hmph! Don't be silly." parrot the man named Wen Tong with a scornful tone. Hearing Wen Tong's non-soft and harsh tone, Xueyue gasped and looked at Wen Tong with blank eyes.
The man noticed Xueyue's appearance from head to toe back with a disgusted expression that this time was very obvious. It made Xueyue involuntarily shrink and feel uneasy because of her gaze.
"Look at you. Are you worthy of being called a woman? Oye! Don't you look more like a man? How can a woman have the temperament of a man like you? Huh! You're disgusting."
DEG!!!
For the first time, she really hated herself as a woman. Even though she said she was a woman, she had the temperament of a man.
"I can't marry you whose origins aren't clear. What is more, you as a woman, or as a man?" Of course it made Xueyue's psyche become disturbed.
Since Xueyue grew up, she has always been required to be tough as a man. This time, when she decided to go out and become her true self, she just wanted to behave like a spoiled and meek innocent girl. He didn't want to be a rude man. But sometimes, his brutal attitude like a man makes the man he likes run away in fear.
This time he admitted to liking Wen Tong, but in fact, he had only gotten an insult. He wants to fight. But somehow the fatigue made him helpless. He was tired of pretending to be a man. He wanted to walk normally like a woman. Can love and be loved. But why is it so so hard?
However, that was not what made him feel like he wanted to end his life immediately. But, he wanted to end his life immediately when suddenly Wen Tong shouted loudly throughout the village.
"LISTEN WELL TO EVERYTHING!" xueyue's body tensed up even more and she felt like she wanted to blur that second as well, Wen Tong simply glanced at her and a sneer full of cheering slanted at the corner of his lips.
After everyone who heard his exclamation, those who were curious finally gathered together to form a circle confining the two.
'No! Don't come any closer. Wen Tong, don't say that. No.' Xueyue screamed in her heart which was now getting pierced and throbbing pain. Sobs began to escape her lips and she was barely able to hold back her tears that were all her might trying to stem them.
She loved Wen Tong so much that it drove her crazy. Even he did not know why his body was suddenly weak helpless. Unlike his previously formidable self can fight against the injustice one has towards him.
"I have an important announcement about this girl!!" wen tong exclaimed again, he pointed at Xueyue easily without pity. Whispers rang out around them like the hum of a bee. Wondering about the identity of Shen Xueyue who had a male appearance but also a female.
"Wen Tong, what are you trying to say? What important things does Xueyue have?" asked a girl of Xueyue's age who was also a friend to Xueyue. Those who were friends with Xueyue knew that Xueyue was a woman who liked to wear male clothes.
"Do you guys know? That"
'No, don't say. Please don't say that.' hope Xueyue with her head shaking softly. Seeing Xueyue's increasingly anxious and frightened manner, Wen Tong grew even more excited. The frequency gets wider with very dangerous eye glances.
"Xueyue is a TRANSVESTITE!"
BRUGGH!!
Xueyue's body lightly fell on the ground with a blank look. His sense of hearing suddenly buzzed loudly and he was unable to hear anymore what the people around him said.
Those people who were shocked felt unable to believe Wen Tong's words for a while. They paid attention to Xueyue's physical and appearance which was really ideal to say as the most beautiful woman if only she would clean her seedy face. How can he be considered a transvestite?
However, there were some people who were still doubtful about Xueyue's identity and were curious to suddenly take the opportunity to examine the truth about Xueyue when they realized that the girl's soul was being hit.
Some of Xueyue's female friends felt unacceptable that Xueyue had been subjected to such sexual harassment. They defended Xueyue all-out until the heartless Wen Tong suddenly approached and had the intention of tearing Xueyue's clothes apart.
Luckily, someone suddenly boldly snatched Xueyue's body before Wen Tong managed to do as he wished. As quickly as possible cover Xueyue's body with her robe. That person managed to save Xueyue and secretly returned Xueyue to her residence in the palace after she put on a new outfit onto Xueyue's body.
"I will never forgive anyone who has made you this way" the helper said before she completely left Xueyue who was still losing her soul.
Late and lonely night, Xueyue with her lost soul walked like an undead in the middle of the night towards the lake near the forest of the palace area. With those blank and soulless eyes of his, his feet dragged him to jump into the lake that was getting deeper and deeper before his completely sunk body no longer appeared on the surface.
.
Right at noon, Xueyue suddenly woke up from her sleep with a breath of breath. Cold sweat poured down profusely from his delicate temple. For a moment, Xueyue lost her soul and she tried to remember about the dream she had just experienced.
Of those dreams, it was an important event that happened before the Xueyue of this world lost her life. Clearly he now knew about how Princess Shen Xueyue in this world was so devastated and wanted to end her life immediately.
The man named Wen Tong was the son of an official who was quite trusted by Xueyue's father, Shen Jinglong. With the high status of his father who gained the full trust of the King, arrogance possessed the man and became an increasingly arrogant person. And with his father's identity, the man could have access to the palace quite easily.
It made Xueyue in this world feel anxious and afraid if at any time they were destined to meet again. And if Wen Tong came to know his true identity was a descendant of King Shen Jinglong, he was afraid that something bad would happen to his father and also the crown prince's good name would be tarnished because of Xueyue's secret all along. That was why, Shen Xueyue in this world preferred to end her life rather than having to make her father and brother's good names tarnished by it. Without him realizing that in fact, his identity was very secretive all this time by the empress.
It shouldn't matter if everyone knows his identity. Especially outside the palace. It doesn't matter if they know she's a woman. Why should he feel devastated and lose his confidence?
"Wen Tong's... I'll make the calculations with you. Heh! Let's see, who will win." sizzled Xueyue grinned savagely with a dangerous glare.
