The Emperor's Prisoner
Episode 32
Jem!
A single sword thrust pierced through the heart of the commander. The sound of the audience's cheers stopped. Their eyes did not blink watching him.
The eyes of the commander were wide. In addition to the pain that arrived ambushing was also shocked by the unexpected attack. The tail of his eyes glanced at Li Jihyun behind him. The blood-soaked body was still standing upright even chuckling. "How does it feel to be stabbed in the back?" he said he thrust more into his sword. Made the commander vomit blood.
Long Jian who had been lazy now looked at him with interest. His eyes sparkled with pleasure. Eunuch Bo who had been watching since was dumbfounded to see Li Jihyun. Is he really human? inner eunuch Bo was astonished at once goosebumps.
"Eunuch Bo didn't humans seem more attractive? How formidable and formidable he was to go that far," Long Jian said with great admiration. His eyes could not be seen by Li Jihyun.
"Ka...You ..." said the commander. Breathing faltered. The corner of Li Jihyun's lips lifted.
"Why? Is there a last message, old man?" whispered Li Jihyun in the commander's ear. The commander was about to speak but Li Jihyun kicked him in the back. Makes the commander never talk. His body was also slammed into the ground. Even the sword that stuck on his back was forcefully pulled out. Blood spurted out soiling hanfu and Li Jihyun's face. He giggled amusedly at the face of the pain of the commander. The commander's hand was raised with trembling. His gaze faintly looked at Li Jihyun before the eyes. But Li Jihyun floated her sword right at the commander's hand. The sound of moans rang out splitting the silence.
The commander's hand was cut off. Everyone hold their breath. No one cheered or voiced. Their eyes did not blink. Li Jihyun smiled. But hidden because it is covered with long hair. The hair that covers half of his face. He looked at his opponent who was still moving even though his heart had already been pierced. Li Jihyun pointed her sword eyes right above the commander in chief. Then in an instant stab him to the point of breaking. A split second the commander immediately let out his last breath.
The referee who had been watching had jolted. He immediately stared at the silent audience. "Pe-Winner Jin," said the referee stuttering. No cheers from the audience. In just an instant the soldier lost two influential people in the palace army.
Li Jihyun stared at the audience. His eyes caught the old man sitting limp. Their eyes glared at each other. But it did not last long Li Jihyun's body fell to the ground. His eyes closed tightly. Blood continued to flow from the wound incision on his body.
"Take him to the best healer" Long Jian told the eunuch Bo. The middle-aged man ran in a hurry to come to the fighting arena. So did the old man who was in the crowd of spectators. They both appear together. "Let me carry it," said the old man holding Li Jihyun's body. It could be bad if the girl gets caught in disguise. Especially getting caught by the emperor. It was impossible to imagine the punishment Li Jihyun received herself.
"But minister Gong, his highness the emperor himself, asked me to take him to the court physician" said eunuch Bo, who was taken by two soldiers behind him. I don't know when the two men followed him.
"It's okay. This kid I can handle myself. Tell your highness the emperor I will take care of him" Gong Jihon said.
"Just keep this minister Gong is the command of the emperor's majesty. If you violate it will receive punishment from him," said eunuch Bo who was shaken by Gong Jihon.
"God! What exactly is going on?" eunuch Bo muttered in frustration. His eyes glanced at Long Jian who was annoyed to see Gong Jihon carrying Li Jihyun. Teeth sulking. His gaze was as sharp as an eagle ready to hunt prey.
"Curtain! Basic parents are troublesome," his curse rose from sitting. He immediately left the balcony. While eunuch Bo complained stifledly looking at Long Jian's demeanor.
May there be no more bloodshed, he hoped inwardly. It could be terrible if there was another massacre in the palace. The palace has been quite quiet for the past few weeks.
....
Li Jihyun was brought quickly by Gong Jihon to her residence. By riding the horse-drawn carriage they arrived faster. He also snatched Li Jihyun's body. Even though his body is aging but his strength is still there. In a hurry he entered the gate of the residence. The waiter who was busy working was surprised to see the presence of his employer. Especially with someone covered in blood.
"QUICK CALL THE HEALER!" his screams in a loud voice shocked the waiter at the house. One of the maids hurriedly went out to the healer's house. Gong Jihon brought Li Jihyun to the guest room. He put down Li Jihyun's body with a heart. His eyes were staring at the doorway. More precisely towards the clustered servants. They were shocked and lowered their eyes. Peeping on the employer's guests is a form of disrespect. They could be sentenced heavily for insolent acts. "Quick change this child's clothes" said Gong Jihon, who was taken in obedience by the servant. One by one the servants entered the room and helped Li Jihyun release her torn and bloodied hanfu.
Just now the waiter was breathing a sigh of relief. The sharp gaze that felt piercing made their guts faint. "Whatever you see don't leak out. If I hear any rumors outside. I will punish you severely," threatened Gong Jihon who was taken by them with fear.
After that Gong Jihon came out of the room. He waited in the living room anxiously. His eyes occasionally stared at the door. The servant who was told to call the physician was not seen. "Grandfather, what are you doing here?" asked a young man of Li Jihyun's age. The young man sat down in the chair next to his father. The old man's head was staring at him. The breath sounds heavy.
The young man's forehead shriveled at the worried look on his father's face. "Gong Heng do you know Li Jihyun?" asked Gong Jihon who was taken in quickly by her grandson.
"of course. Where I might not know him. But what happened until grandpa worried about this?" gong Heng asked curiously accompanied by a coughing sound. Again the breath sounds heavy.
"The boy was seriously injured" said Gong Jihon with his head bowed. Gong Heng's eyes widened in shock. He coughed and heard it.
"Serious grandfather? How did that tough woman get hurt? Grandpa knew she was the strongest and smartest woman," Gong Heng said in disbelief. In his memory the girl was never hurt in the slightest. Even if she was hurt, the girl never cried or complained. His face was very relaxed. So many say that Li Jihyun is a demon drop. A girl who can't feel pain even if she gets hurt repeatedly.
