The Emperor's Prisoner
Episode 15's


"Why are you quiet?" li Jihyun asked staring at them innocently. He put his blood-soaked fingers on his cheeks. "Or are you bored?" instantly my feathers they shudder.


"Ti-No noble concubine," replied one of the concubines nervously as well as trembling in fear. Li Jihyun was silent still staring at those standing before her. He glanced towards the two corpses lying on the floor. The two soldiers who had been told to drag the body of the lady were still frozen. They were devastated to see Li Jihyun's sadism finish off the ladyboy in an instant.


Li Jihyun clucked back her body. The two warriors who were aware of Li Jihyun's presence instantly shrank their guts. They are now more frightened than facing the enemy on the battlefield. Cold sweat drenched the forehead.


"What are you doing here?" li Jihyun asked coldly and flatly. The two warriors shuddered in horror feeling the gripping chill from Li Jihyun's body. "I order you to take care of these two disgusting corpses. But why are you guys staying here? Did you not hear my words?" li Jihyun asked staring intently.


"Pardon us noble concubines. We will immediately carry out your orders" said one of the two soldiers. In unison they immediately brought the two corpses that had been stiffened. A pool of blood reminisced on the floor as the two bodies were removed. Everyone there shut their mouths in horror. Some turned their faces. Only Li Jihyun casually watched it. It was as if the pool of blood was just an ordinary sight.


Li Jihyun, the girl who was educated as a hitman in her previous life had already gotten used to blood and pain. Since childhood, he was born without tears or blood. He is different from most people who have feelings. He looks more like a killing machine than a human.


Perhaps only in his second life did he begin to recognize human feelings. But when his heart began to soften and receive affection between humans. A tragedy struck his family. Not only his family but also the entire imperial people who made him return to being a killing machine like in his previous life. Although it was not as sad as before. But it was still terrible to see him.


"Your great concubine what if we go back now?" yona's proposal was a little scared.


Li Jihyun's head fell backwards. "alright. I'm tired of it here, too" he said, turning around. He looked at the concubines and the maids who were following them were bowing respectfully. Just looking at it made Li Jihyun happy. They should have been like this a long time ago. Heh? Whatever age the human being is remains the same. Only oppress the cowardly but fear the strong. Disgusting, his mind passes through those who are bowed. His steps paused for a moment making them flinch in shock. The cold sweat has been pouring out since. "Maybe I'll come here tomorrow. So prepare the most delicious tea," she smiled faintly before leaving them. As soon as Li Jihyun's step away from their bodies instantly suffocated.


Their eyes stared at Li Jihyun's distant back. "He really looks like a demon rather than a human being" said one of the concubines wiping the sweat on his forehead. The other concubine agreed.


"But isn't she rumored to be a quiet, naive concubine?" knock one of them out while looking at them in turn. The others agreed. Though there was doubt on their faces. "Especially he to help the lady from the rival side? Isn't it obvious she's a naive and stupid woman?"


"Just don't look for trouble with him. I got nauseous to see him so casually slashing the head of Ai Na's ladyboy," he said rubbing the arm that suddenly bristled her hair.


"But about being raised with affection is not just gossip. Because he said the previous prime minister loved his daughter very much," said the concubine, who was taken by another concubine.


While Li Jihyun walked leisurely past the busy working dayang. The Hanfu she was wearing had many blood spots. Make the eyes of the lady do not look at him. Despite not daring directly, they could only glance at him. Every step Li Jihyun took away from the whispering of the maids would be heard. Yona who witnessed it all could only be agitated. Occasionally his eyes glanced towards the busy day gossipping while whispering softly.


May the great concubine not hear it and the news not spread. I don't want the name of the great concubine to deteriorate. Although the actions of the great concubine were wrong and had crossed the line. Must have been a grand concubine had a reason to do so. I should have warned her that it was wrong. But I was too cowardly, inner Yona with a downcast look.


"What do you think Yona is?" li Jihyun asked to stop her steps and turn around. Making Yona accidentally hit Li Jihyun's body in front of him. Yona instantly retreated with a trembling body.


"Ti-Nobody noble grand concubine," she replied with a quivering voice. The breath sounded. The girl crossed her arms over her chest.


"Don't think too much about unnecessary things. I'm fine. So don't worry" Li Jihyun turned around and took a step first. "Come now we have to go back. I was hungry" he said, turning his head back.


"I-Yes the noble concubine," Yona replied walking quickly following Li Jihyun's footsteps.


Without Li Jihyun realizing there was someone paying attention to her. His smile was glimpsed. "We will soon meet Li Jihyun again" he said before disappearing with a gust of wind. Li Jihyun who passed the window turned her head out. The gust of wind just now made Li Jihyun's instincts light up. He watched for quite a while. But there's nothing there. Only the trees swayed in the rhythm of the wind.


"What's the noble grand concubine?" yona asked following the direction of Li Jihyun's gaze. Yona tilted a confused face. There's nothing there. Besides the trees that sway. What did the grand concubine see until that focus? inner Yona glanced at Li Jihyun who was silently grinning.


"Maybe it's just my feeling" muttered Li Jihyun breaking the silence. He's back on his way. Why did I feel his presence? We can't possibly meet again, right? inner fretting. It was impossible to meet anyone he knew in his current life. He thought he might be sensitive because he faced a lot of problems. So now he didn't take a headache and went back to thinking about other revenge plans.


....


"What did that girl do?" long Jian asked as he inspected the documents strewn across the spell. There were many claims of war denial made. But Long Jian did not care. For him war is his pleasure to expand the territory of power. He ignored the opinions of officials and ministers who refused. Moreover, the wider the territory of the opponent will be more reluctant and afraid of him.


"You mean the noble concubine?" ask Zhang Liu.
