The Emperor's Prisoner
Episode 14

“Why should I stop?” li Jihyun asked, sticking her nails deeper, making Xu Diu grimace. Her tears fell so painfully. Li Jihyun's nails pierced through Xu Diu's skin mercilessly. Blood was pouring down the table. Everyone held their breaths looking at him. Until someone gets sick. While the girl giggled at the pained face of Xu Diu.

Dayang Xu Diu was getting more and more frightened. Moreover, seeing Xu Diu's face turn blue. “Sa-I beg you to release concubine Xu,” ask the lady by welding.

Li Jihyun yawned widely. He propped up his chin while staring at the lazy lady. “Jawab my question,” said Li Jihyun. “If you manage to answer it. I just released Xu Diu. Hurry on! I can already feel his flesh wriggling in my fingers,” Li Jihyun said grinning to make them all shudder in horror.

“Yang noble concubine Li. Consort Xu could die if left unchecked. I beg you to release concubine Xu,” pinta one of the concubines made Li Jihyun's eyebrows raised next to her. The other concubines exchanged lyrics restlessly. The girl who was originally ridiculed by the prisoner of war turned out to be a terrifying demon who enjoyed torturing people. Though previously there was a rumor circulating the girl was very good who saved the unknown lady. It was obvious the lady-in-waiting was disrespectful but forgiven. That time was even reckless against the words of Long Jian who could be sentenced to death.

“What do I care? Even if he dies, isn't that good? His highness the emperor would be bored if he continued to meet such an annoying concubine as Xu Diu,” Li Jihyun smiled making them instantly speechless. “And if you do not want to die and be replaced better think of how to survive longer.”

“Ya-Yang noble concubine regal. I beg you to release concubine Xu. I'll do whatever you want to release it,” the lady prostrated on the floor with a trembling body. Li Jihyun let out a short breath. He stuck his nails deeper making Xu Diu groan. The boy bit his lower lip. “Sa-I beg your majesty concubine. Even if you want my life though I will give,” he said without a second thought. Li Jihyun smiled widely.

“Yona,” call Li Jihyun surprise Yona. The girl who had since lowered her gaze looked up. He stared at the bloodied jeri Xu Diu. His face turned blue and his breath stopped. The poison in Li Jihyun's nails flowed quickly into her veins. His body was numb and unable to move. “Yona?” calling Li Jihyun again made Yona gasp.

“I-Yes the noble concubine,” sahut Yona with a vibrating voice. The situation is now gripping and frightening. The atmosphere of drinking tea in a quiet morning actually turned into a murder scene.

“Call here soldier. Tell me that I gave the order to punish the whip as much as 100 times on the dayang who had done disrespectful actions on the grand concubine,” Li Jihyun said staring at the rowdy dayang. While Yona quickly went to summon the soldiers according to Li Jihyun's orders.

Hundred times? Can I hold on that long? It's crazy and creepy, the inner lady squeezed the floor. Makes blood seep from his nails. Nah! I must endure for the sake of concubine Xu, her inner self again with full confidence. His head was slightly raised in gaze with Li Jihyun.

“Why? Are you protesting now?” li Jihyun asked raising her eyebrows.

“Sa-I don't dare that noble concubine grand. The punishment you give will be received with a big heart,” replied the lady again lowered her head.

Xu Diu moved his eyeballs glancing at the lady who had faithfully served him ever since coming to the concubine pavilion. Her tears are flowing. All of this is due to mistakes made by himself until others are involved. Moreover, that person was someone close to him. Li Jihyun's attention shifted towards Xu Diu.

You crazy devil! The curse in the heart. I'm definitely not gonna let you go that easy. I'll tell dad what he did. Just look at you dying in my hand, his mind with eyes glistening with rage. But Li Jihyun did not care and stuck her nails deeper. Even his nails had almost penetrated his mouth.

The woman wanted to scream in pain. But his voice did not come out at all. The poison paralyzed his entire body movement unnoticed. Only Li Jihyun knew. He smiled faintly seeing Xu Diu's body weaken. His body also began to feel cold.

“Good morning noble concubine,” greet the two warriors in unison. They bowed respectfully.

“Bring that day,” Li Jihyun said as she pulled her fingernails out of Xu Diu's skin. The woman's body immediately collapsed on the floor. Everyone immediately got excited. Even the two soldiers came to him to help. “Do not approach. Let it go,” said Li Jihyun casually while licking the remaining blood in her hands. Everyone was hysterically watching him. Even vomiting is disgusted.

The two soldiers stopped their steps. They just watched the hysterical cries of the lady. Dayang faithfully served concubine Xu Diu for 5 years. The relationship between the two is not just a boss and a man. Rather it is more like a friendship that the two unwittingly realize. The crying sounded heartbreaking. He hugged Xu Diu's stiffened body.

“Concubine Xu WAKE UP! CONCUBINE XU!” the pecker broke the silence.

“What are you waiting for? Quickly bring the lady,” said Li Jihyun pointing at the dayang who was still crying while hugging Xu Diu's stiff body. The girl raised her face. A flash of hatred was seen in his eyes.

“Concubine Li Jihyun I curse you live a miserable life. Just look someday you will get a reply that is worth it,” said the dayang while growling furiously. The movement of Li Jihyun licking her fingers from the bloodstains came to a halt. He sighed. His eyes stared at the lady. Once again take a breath.

Yona has been scared ever since. He was about to persuade Li Jihyun to remain calm. But seeing no reaction from Li Jihyun he breathed enough relief.

Li Jihyun got up from her seat. He pulled the sword handle from one of the soldiers. Not yet had they digested the deeds Li Jihyun would do. Suddenly Li Jihyun swung the sword towards the neck of the dayang. The ladyboy's head rolled down on the floor making some people faint. Even Yona closed her mouth so badly hit. Employers who served more sadistic than the emperor who had been robbed of bloodlust.

The face of Li Jihyun sumringah when she was hit by a splash of blood. He licked the corner of his lips. The two soldiers who watched until pecked in disbelief. The well-meaning concubine turns out to have a scary sadistic side. For a moment people began to doubt the rumors that were circulating.

“Ah, forgive me. I was too happy to not notice the surrounding conditions,” Li Jihyun turned around while smiling at them. The rest of the people who were still conscious could only subdue the gaze. Without daring to speak a bit.
