I stared at the sky - the sky of the workroom of Emperor Wei's father. Ever since my reckless incident that made me repeat myself from the beginning, I'm still here with no intention of moving on. Bo Qing's shadow continued to spin, that's what made me still feel at home here and continue the punishment alone.

Since a few hours ago, the crown prince Liang resigned to rest at his residence in the eastern palace. Perhaps because the day soon went up in the morning, my brother chose to go home and sleep first tinted tomorrow he had to attend a meeting between government officials and also monitor the court afterwards.

I sighed, I stared at the copy book of my handwriting that wasn't even half. The sighing sound coming out from my tiny lips again rang out filling the desolate workroom of Emperor Wei's father. I choose to rest for a moment. In addition to my neck that feels stiff, also because from earlier I continued to yawn because of sleepiness.

It's only natural that I'm so sleepy. The day began to dawn, and I had not even closed my eyes for a moment just because the shadow of the young man I so wanted to make personal affairs continued to be imagined - the shadow in my head. Imagining that the young man had been taken by someone else made me re-impose myself to continue with my copy.

I re-enforce my body, taking the brush I put in the ink container. I started writing with great caution. My sleepy condition makes me have to be very careful because I do not want to make the same mistakes and require me to repeat.

I forced my eyes to stay awake, I kept writing every word and sentence in the rule book into the copy book that now got a beautiful scribble and stroke of every letter that became a series of words that created a kaliamat that made my head get dizzy when reading every rule point that exists.

"For the sake of the sky god, why must there be so many rules like this?" meekness

"Every subordinate is forbidden to have an affair. Whether the healer, nurse, soldier, eunuch, ladyboy, and waiter are caught having an affair, both will be removed from the palace" I read the rule points that somehow, I know how, I don't know why I don't agree with those rules.

"Is the relationship between the opposite sex a sin? why should I be kicked out of the palace? what's their fault? Just because they love each other, they have to lose their jobs. What if both of them were born from commoner families? how will they eat and move on with their lives?" I continued to issue grunts and protest against the disagreement with the regulation while noting the points of the regulation. So seriously I copied, I did not realize that Emperor Wei's father walked over to me who was still busy struggling with copying.

"They should stay out. However, if both stay, they will not focus on their work. Before they entered the palace, they had sworn to serve the kingdom and give up their future like getting married and having a family. If they love each other and want to get married, one of them can resign and the other partner stays to work" replied Emperor Wei's father who managed to turn my gaze to the middle-aged man who was still awake just like me.

"Ayahanda, what are you doing here?" I was surprised when I realized his presence

"Of course to work" retorted the Wei emperor

"This morning?" ask me again

"Well this early. Fathers sometimes like to work in hours like this because there is nothing to disturb or disturb the work of the Father" replied the Wei emperor who made me nod.

"Why should there be such a rule?" ask the Emperor's father who just sat in his seat of greatness.

"Then what if they refuse to go out in the palace?" ask me for the umpteenth time

"They will be forcibly and dishonorably discharged" the Wei emperor replied patiently

"If there are maids or servants who are caught pregnant, or giving birth out of wedlock and their partners refuse to admit to impregnating or admitting their children because they do not want to be expelled, what will the royal court do?" ask me with a curious face

"Lan'er why are you so interested in this rule point?" ask the Wei emperor

"I'm just curious" I replied

Emperor Wei nodded, then replied "We will not make a rash decision. We'll process the case, find out and investigate before we impose the sentence" I responded and understood.

"Thank you for the generosity Father answered my question" I said and resumed my copy.

Slowly the atmosphere in the work room was struck deserted. There was only the sound of sheet by sheet behind by the Wei emperor, also there was only the sound of scratches and scribbles from the brush I was holding. We were struck by seriousness and perseverance in doing their respective tasks until we did not realize the time continued to pass quickly until it did not feel like the night had changed in the morning.

Emperor Wei closed the last scroll he had read, then stretched his hand up while relaxing his stiff muscles. As he got up from his seat of greatness, he only realized that his daughter was now asleep with the head that he put on the table.

Emperor Wei shook his head, he closed the copy book midway through. The little princess managed to take down a portion of the rule book just overnight. Emperor Wei did not know what made his daughter so intent and recklessly recorded the royal regulations with a burning spirit. As emperor Wei knew, his little princess had already worked very hard.

Not wanting to make his daughter sleep in an uncomfortable position, the Wei emperor lifted her daughter up and brought her back to his residence in the Shan pavilions. Along the way to the western palace, many pairs of eyes were staring at the Wei emperor. Instantly their smiles rose with their hearts that somehow felt warm. Perhaps because the affection of Emperor Wei for his daughter made them feel - will also feel the warmth.

Emperor Wei arrived at the Shan Pavilium, and put his daughter with a heart. After taking his daughter, he then covered her up to cover her chest. Emperor Wei kissed his daughter's forehead fondly and then withdrew and said, "Ayahanda does not know what makes you so determined to finish your punishment, but Father is so amazed by your spirit, emperor Wei paused with a warm smile - good-bye to our little princess" the emperor added before leaving his now smiling daughter in his sleep
