Prince, Marry Me!
The Return of Xu Li
Tok ... tok …
“Xiao Yan, let me open it myself!” tell Huang Ling Xi when she hears someone knocking on her bedroom door, she knows when Xiao Yan, one of her servants, is about to open the door. There were usually no guests this early, moreover Huang Ling Xi had prepared to go to the market to see the latest news there. Sad that there was no Xu Li, but he could bring another servant.
“Good, miss.”
“Just finish your work, let me open the door.”
“Iya, miss.” Xiao Yan chose to go and welcome the other work, he still did not clean the main courtyard of the house as requested by the second miss.
The moment Huang Ling Xi opened the door, she was made dumbstruck by the presence of someone she had so longed for these few days. Huang Ling Xi cried because the mother did not break her promise, she had brought a deer even with a little help from someone, and the mother had now released Xu Li.
“Xu Li?”
Yes, right, Xu Li came in much more decent clothes than the last time they met. Although the traces of torture that Liu Ning Yu carried out were still there, but Xu Li was grateful to be able to return. “Nona, forgive me for leaving miss too long. Forgive me for making the lady so worried and tiredness set me free.”
Xu Li knelt down begging for mercy at the second miss's feet, but Ling Xi quickly hugged her. “No, Xu Li, you are innocent, we are innocent, and it should be me as your master to save you.”
“Thank you so much miss, I thought about dying or being exiled and thrown away.”
“No one will throw you away, Xu Li!” huang Ling Xi.
Xu Li smiled meaningfully as she wiped the rest of her tears on her cheeks, the lady she knew was indeed very humble to her. Although people often call her the troublemaker because it is too ambitious to be number one, but Huang Ling Xi is still a good and innocent lady.
The lady brought her servant into the residence, very happy she welcomed back Xu Li, the other servants also welcomed. “Xu Li, you stay at the residence, I'll go to the market with another waiter only.”
“Why, miss? I'm fine, I'll accompany miss anywhere.” Xu Li replied.
“But you just got out of jail, mom must have tortured you so hard.” reply Huang Ling Xi, “I'll go alone.”
“Don't be so miss, I'm fine, I'll come with miss.”
“Well if you force.”
The weekend and there was no training whatsoever for Ling Xi, this was a good day as her father and mother were going to the palace to discuss the marriage of Huang Jian Ying and the crown prince. Because another week will be held a wedding, so Huang Ling Xi went to the market to buy a new hanfu. A pair of jade skewers and good shoes.
But arriving at the market, instead he was no longer excited, because everyone only flattered Huang Jian Ying who said she was very beautiful, unfortunately not so healthy.
The news of Huang Jian Ying and the palace horse carriage that the bandits had confronted was also only known to Ling Xi at this time, when he accidentally heard the conversation of the people in the market. “Their mother had done something right, but if you made it to the palace, obviously the plan had failed. But why aren't you angry with me? Is she tired of making me empress?” guan Huang Ling Xi's.
“Nona, are we going back after this?”
“Iya, we'll just go back.”
“But miss, we haven't got what the lady wants. Hanfu, konde puncture, and shoes, miss has not had.”, said Xu Li, since they arrived at the market, they just circled in an uncertain direction.
“Iya miss.” Xu Li nodded.
In the end they turned around, Xu Li remained silent because he knew that the lady was not in the mood to be disturbed. Arriving at the market just goes with the flow by circling while listening to the latest news about the palace and empire. “First lady Huang? I think the one who will be the companion of the crown prince is actually the second miss, because she is much more clever and beautiful is not it?”
“Yes, it should be, but the empire has other judgments. First miss Huang is sickly, just like the crown prince who never went to war and instead continues to be in the palace.”
“Hey, watch your talk, if anyone hears you'll get in trouble!”
“But this is true, they are indeed weak since childhood.”
Huang Ling Xi stopped her steps, right beside her, three men were talking about her brother and the crown prince. The crown prince is often sick, that's right. Huang Jian Ying was often ill, also right. But why they were united, didn't the empire need a good escort candidate. How could the election pass Huang Jian Ying while he was not, many other noble ladies chose Huang Jian Ying instead.
“Hei-hei-hey!!”
“Listen, it turns out King Xuan has also returned!”
“King Xuan? Did ya? Will he attend the crown prince's wedding? Well, King Xuan wasn't interested in the empire back then. I think he wants to take over the empire.”
“Be careful when you speak, reportedly King Xuan is cold-blooded. He often beheaded his opponents on the battlefield and displayed them in the Southern Palace.”
“Is the news true? But King Xuan is indeed cold-blooded.”
King Xuan, the second prince of the empire that Huang Ling Xi had never met. Looks like the crown prince's wedding party will be a lot of fun. Even if to Huang Ling Xi himself felt like hell.
Choosing to ignore, Huang Ling Xi resumed her steps. At the crossroads, he was again startled by the presence of a boy prostrating at his feet.
“Hey, who are you? What are you doing?” hardik Xu Li, Huang Ling Xi's loyal servant immediately chased away the child.
“I beg miss, forgive me!!” please put both hands together in front of the chest.
“Nona, I did not take the jade belonging to miss. But the lady's bodyguards damaged our residence.”
“Nona, we beg for justice for us.”
Huang Ling Xi and Xu Li looked at each other, “How did you know that I lost jade? Oh, you were that kid, huh?!”
“I-i-iya miss, forgive me!!” the boy came back.
Huang Ling Xi felt awkward, this child was very afraid of him probably because the mother sent bodyguards to get back her jade possession. Huang Ling Xi lowered her head, she grabbed the child's arm and brought him up. “Tell me!” tell it.
The boy was named Lan Lan, he flowed the story without the slightest lie. It all started when he returned to where he used to live with the other homeless children while carrying the bread Huang Ling Xi gave him. Later that night, the guards came to search one by one children including Lan Lan. When they did not find who stole the jade, the guards finally damaged their residence.
“Antar I'm there!” huang Ling Xi.
