INEZ (IMMORTAL NEVER OF ZENIT)
Episode 20: ARRIVING AT THE PALACE

“Who is the girl, amazing talent nya”, again sounded whispered participants.

“Jen brother is very proud of mu”, said Prince Emus who still does not believe his sister has extraordinary talent.

“Nona is so great and talented, we are lucky to be a nona” follower, Anes and Rin continued.

Then the turn of the other participants continued. After all the participants who escaped finished checking on the talent, the host stood back in the middle of the stage,

“Day is already afternoon, today is special to know the talent of each of you, the second stage we will continue one month from now, and it is a match in the Arena, he said, so prepare yourself and develop each other's talents, so and happy to meet 30 days in front of”, said the host excitedly, and let the participants disperse.

The second half was out of plan, it should be tomorrow, but the kingdom changed its schedule to next month.

“Jen, let's go back to Palace, I must miss you” so much said prince Emus.

Father who has not cared for me all this time, it is impossible that he missed me, Jen thought.

“Alright sister come..”, reply Jen. Prince Emus's chariot has been set up and Jen is on board.

“Sack where Concubine Ika”.

“She's been told to go home inuan”, the prince keeps watching Jen.

“Kak, do not forget the promise of the big brother at that time ya”, said Jen in a spoiled style.

“Yes, you remember, later when you arrive at the palace, you will announce” soon, continued Prince Emus.

Hehehee, engraved a smile on Jen's beautiful face, impatiently waiting for that moment.

The journey to the palace took half a day from the outer city of the Qua kingdom. Jen begins to get sleepy, and falls asleep leaning on Prince Emus' shoulder. Anes and Rin are in another horse carriage, which has also been prepared. No matter how much Jen was asleep, to hear someone calling her.

“Jen..Jen..”, the voice of Prince Emus who tried to wake her up.

“Hemmm... why kak?”, reply Jen who finally woke up too.

“We have arrived, we come down”, replied Prince Emus.

Jen and Prince Emus also came out of the horse carriage, in front of the Palace the ladies and the three prince concubines were lined up neatly to welcome their arrival. Prince Emus had not yet chosen his empress so only his concubines were there. The palace itself has also known Jen's arrival with the prince.

 “Welcome Your Majesty Pengeran Emus, welcome also daughter Jen”, greet the three concubines and the ladies. Finished welcoming them, Consort Ika approached the prince.

“Yes majesty, I miss you, stop by my place later”, said concubine Ika without caring about Jen.

“Your Majesty, I have also prepared a new robe for you”, continued the second concubine, who also immediately approached the prince. While the third concubine only said “I am glad that the noble returned with healthy”.

Jen herself did not care about their whereabouts. And bidding towards his pavilion.

Hem, as I recall going to the princess pavilion, passed through these streets, but I was able to arrive at this haunted pavilion, Jen thought in astonishment, looking at the broken building in front of her that was not maintained, so she could not get there, he did not expect the pavilion of a princess to look dirty, the furniture was full of dust even though there were not many furniture there. The bed linen was also dull, and the clothes were very few and simple, as well as the rough material, such as the material for the maid's clothes, the jewelry in her jewelry box was very few. Just a hairpin and a couple of pairs of ribbons.

It's nice that they treat this princess this way, her inner being upset.

“Pelayaaann!!”, her words from inside the room. But no one came in. Jen looked out and there was still no servant in the pavilion.

“Rin, call the butler in charge of this pavilion”, Jen said with a restraint on her anger.

From her memory, the butler disrespected her, and all of Jen's monthly money was taken by her. Likewise, the royal seal that should have been in his hand now fell into the hands of concubine Shan, his father's first concubine who was also because of his plan until Jen was kidnapped and sold. Jen also suspects her mother's death has something to do with Consort Shan and possibly some of her father's other concubines.

Shortly after Rin called, a servant who served as a butler arrived.

“What is the lady calling, I was very busy preparing dinner”, said the butler exasperatedly and without lowering his head.

Jen walked up to him, and then.. PLAAAKKK, a slap landed on the servant's left cheek.

He was shocked to get unusual treatment from Jen's daughter who was famous for being stupid because of the kindness of her heart. “What do you mean slap me!”, snapped her who thought Jen would be scared.

“I mean, why do you disrespect a princess and leave her residence like this, even it seems like the servants pavilion is still better than this pavilion !”, Jen said coldly. The look in his eyes emitted an incredible killing aura. The servant even to the point of shaking in fear, he did not expect the girl to be able to emit this kind of aura.

“Nona, ka.kamu don't be insolent, I am the butler in this place, I can complain to the concubines if I am late to prepare food for them”, I can not be, her reply tried to threaten Jen. This Chief Servant, was in charge of taking care of the concubines of the prince Emus, and the children of his Father's Concubine.

“Then..... I am the princess of the kingdom in this palace”, said Jen again with coldness.

“Anes, whip this brash waitress 20x, and have her kneel all night in front of this pavilion”, Jen orders.

Anes dragged the maid in front of the pavilion and whipped her 20x, then the maid knelt in front of the princess pavilion the entire night.

“The concubines, and the children of his father's concubines also always bully this princess first, we see who first comes later’, said Jen with a cynical smile.

“Rin, please call some waiters to prepare the toiletries, I want to soak” immediately, Rin left and returned with some servants.

Arriving in front of the pavilion, the Servant was startled to see the bloody butler and kneeled before the princess pavilion. They did not dare to make a sound and immediately prepared the bath water and toiletries for Jen's daughter. In their minds, this princess why suddenly changed?.

While waiting for the concubines to arrive, Jen cleans herself up aided by Rin.

“Aahh, freshness”, muttered Jen happy. I haven't had a shower like this in a long time. Warm water mixed rose petals, and milk scrubs, then his shampoo of ginseng extract mixed rose juice. After finishing her skin bath, olive oil and moisturizing her face, berry fruit extract.

While the servants were waiting outside to then clean up everything after the princess finished. Two hours had passed, Jen finally finished cleaning herself, and Rin and Anes in a separate room had finished cleaning themselves. The servants who had been waiting for immediately cleaned their former baths.

Just now Jen wants to break herself down, Consort Ika came with her regret accompanied by some of her servants. Seeing the Servant's head kneeling down, Consort Ika grew even more annoyed. And barged into Jen's pavilion.
