Empress
Episode 12 - Feng Yue's

" Bring me one petal of the Heavenly Flower, and your debt will be paid off"

It continues to haunt his mind, his mother is sick, he has taken him to and fro but nothing can cure him. Now that he had to bring his mother back to treatment, he heard that there was a great doctor in the kingdom who could cure any disease, but it took a very large amount of funds.

Feng Yue tried to borrow one of the merchants she always owed. He was a successful merchant in Wang, yet he was not a native, he was a newcomer. He always lent him money, but of course with very high interest. He was about to borrow again but the merchant wanted him to pay off the previous debt.

Feng Yue did not have the slightest money, how did she pay off all her debts. If he continues his installments, he can. But these? Oh my god, where does he get that kind of money.

They finally made a deal. The merchant was going to give her the money, yet he wanted Feng Yue to bring her the Heavenly Flower petals. Then all his debts will be paid off and he will give his desired loan without the need to pay it again.

There had never been a crime going on in this Wang kingdom, if he had done so, perhaps he would have been the first criminal recorded in history. But if she doesn't do her, what about her mother, this really drives her crazy.

After a long time of thought, he finally decided he would take the petals during the harvest celebration. Everyone will be busy with the celebration so there is no need for too many guards to keep the flower, he thought.

Feng Yue had an incredible skill. He was good at everything, even his magic level was very high for the size of a merchant. To be able to arrive at the Heavenly Flower room, Feng Yue bewitched a royal bodyguard and asked him to escort her there.

Unexpectedly, even though the celebration was happening it turned out that the guard there remained very tight. He would not be able to fight against his own. Finally Feng Yue decided to use the spell she had read in a book. In the book it says if the mantra is read and directed at someone, then that person will be unconscious in a few moments.

Feng Yue tried it, this was her first time using that spell. It was unexpected that the spell worked. The entire guard suddenly collapsed. Making use of this opportunity Feng Yue ran towards the large iron door which she believed was the door guarding the Heavenly Flower.

She recites the spell to open the door, but to no avail, her magic returns to her. He tried and kept trying, all kinds of spells he knew he was using but nothing worked.

What is this door made of. I think this is a normal door, but why is it so hard to open it.

He doesn't give up, tries and keeps trying. There is only one in his mind, his mother. He was about to try again, but a voice stopped him.

" Who are you?!!" body tensed. Looks like he got caught, or maybe the guards are conscious.

Feng Yue turned her body and saw two women approaching her. One woman looked very pretty, but it seemed like she was a servant. While the other one wears a veil and a hat wrapped in cloth. Yes cain. Waitaminute! Hats and cloth? That means they are—

Shit, it seems like he's really going to die this time. If Feng Yue did not guess wrongly, then it was true what she thought. They are the princess and her servant.

" I asked who you are!"

Feng Yue did not answer him. He knelt down to face the princess.

" You may punish me Princess. But let me bring one petal of this flower for my mother's treatment. After that, this life and soul are yours." Pause.

Hearing that Xiao Shi was astonished, was the man insane? He simply asked who he was and he instead said he would give his soul and life. Bizarrely.

" curement? But I've never heard of this flower being used for medicine."

" This-this-this interest is to pay all my debt to one of the merchants. They asked for these flower petals as a condition" Xiao Shi tried to look for lies in his eyes. But nothing, what the man said was all true.

" How much do you owe?"

" I'm sorry princess servant, but I think you—"

" How much do you owe?. Don't make me repeat the same question."

" My debt—" he had not had time to answer one of the soldiers seemed to begin to realize one by one.

" Daughter, it seems like they are starting to regain consciousness. What are we supposed to do??" tanya Yuan made sure.

" What's your name?" Xiao Shi asked the man earlier.

" Feng Yue, princess"

" A Yuan, you and Feng Yue go first. I'll see you guys later"

" But princess how about—" unfinished Yuan spoke, Xiao Shi flicked his arm, and they both disappeared.

All the awakened soldiers immediately got up and were on standby when they saw someone near the door. They thought an intruder was coming, but it turned out to be the Princess.

" DAUGHTER!!" all the soldiers saluted.

" I just want to test you, whether you are really capable of guarding it or not. But only with ordinary spells can you fall asleep that fast, which is embarrassing. I think my father has misplaced you here!" his voice echoed and sounded very authoritative.

" PLEASE FORGIVE US, PRINCESS!!" all the guards prostrated themselves begging for forgiveness, they even uttered it many times.

" That's enough!! I will ask my father to train you further. I don't want something like this to happen again. Do you understand?!!!"

" GOOD PRINCESS!!"

After that Xiao Shi left the place, letting the guards prostrate, and immediately went to his residence. Actually he was annoyed, how could the best soldiers be unconscious just because of a small spell. Oh Gods! It's mortifying. Fortunately, the door could not be opened by just anyone.

Yes, that door can only be opened by a royal member who has a special mark on his back. It was deliberately designed by the previous King to prevent things like this from happening. He knew there would be a lot of risk, no matter how much he put guards there it wouldn't necessarily make the door safe. That's why he designed it like this.
