The Emperor's Prisoner
Episode 37's

"What you say is true. I can't go on forever like this" Li Jihyun said, making the two men breathe a sigh of relief. "Yona I will definitely avenge you. Your blood will I make sure flood the empire," Li Jihyun continued squeezing a pool of blood. "Uncle we prepare the funeral ceremony," pinta Li Jihyun who was embraced by Gong Jihon. "Uncle also need not feel guilty. This is all fate. So stop prostrating to me."

Li Jihyun got up from sitting down. He placed Yona's head near his body with a heart. Gong Jihon was silent. Deep down in his heart was a deep sense of guilt. But it's too late there's no point in regretting it now. "Uncle will help you occupy the Singasana" said Gong Jihon steady. He stood up straight and patted his shoulder gently.

Li Jihyun smiled in a smile. "Uncle does not need to bother. I can definitely hang on well there and take it all," he clenched his hands tightly. His eyes flashed with anger. The shadow of Long Jian's face swirled in his head. I will definitely destroy you Long Jian! his mind clenched his jaw. The sound of teeth was heard. No matter the blood that kept flowing from his mouth.

...

The night sky is getting stronger. The wind blew fiercely flying the leaves on the ground. Occasionally a rumbling sound was heard. The movement Long Jian wrote stopped. His head was out the window. The trees near his window swayed strongly. He exhaled a rough breath.

His hand moved slowly grabbing the sword. A shiny object shot rapidly towards him. Quickly Long Jian brushed him off dropping an object onto the floor that turned out to be a dagger. He got up from his seat and walked towards the window. His eyes moved wildly watching the trees that were still swaying. There was a glint on one of the branches of a tree not far from the window.

Long Jian jumped from the window frame and appeared onto the tree branch. A person dressed in black was shocked. He had not expected to be caught by Long Jian. Haven't thought yet. The sword in Long Jian's hand instantly slashed at the person's neck. His head rolled down to the ground along with the body. The splashing blood stained his hanfu.

He came down from the tree and whistled. Two people dressed in black appeared behind him. The two bowed respectfully with a downcast look. "Take this corpse into the forest" he said, taken by the two men in black clothes. They dragged the corpse away away from Long Jian.

Long Jian flicked his sword from the patches of blood that stuck. The rumbling sounds were heard again. Long Jian's head looked up at the sky. Rain drops fell on his handsome face. He let out a heavy sigh and then stepped back into his room.

...

"Long Jian do you want to become emperor?" ask the girl curious. His eyes did not stop gnawing at Long Jian. He is nine years old but his curiosity is huge. Until it made little Long Jian have trouble answering. Long Jian exhaled slowly. His head was looking up at the sky.

The sunlight shining scorching brightly dazzled Long Jian's eyes. His eyes narrowed a little. "Eitherway. I. .. also don't know," he answered raising his hand up. The scorching sun was slightly blocked. Breathing sounds heard.

"Are you not interested in becoming emperor?" Long Jian's gaze immediately turned to look at him. Again and again Long Jian was made surprised to see the change in the girl's face. He's up back. "Why Long Jian? Why are you avoiding me? What wrong? Long Jian's! LONG JIAN!"

Little Long Jian covered his ears. His cry sounded shrill to the point of opening the ears. Until his voice sounded buzzing. His eyes did not blink looking at the girl. The girl's face paled and blood kept coming out of her head. The smell of thick weavings. His face was smashed with many incision wounds. Even on his back there were many arrows. Making the little girl look even more sinister.

The girl walked up to him in limp steps. Every time the girl walked there was a lot of blood splattered. Long Jian swallowed his hard-earned saliva. "Long Jian became emperor. Be the emperor for me" he said touching Long Jian's face. His ice-cold hands made Long Jian shudder in horror. "You heard me, right?" he continued while stroking his jade-white cheek. Long Jian was about to incline backwards but his body was hard to move. His eyes glanced fearfully at the girl's nails. His long, black nails felt sharp when he touched Long Jian's skin. He swallowed hard.

Blars!

The sound of lightning woke Long Jian from sleep. Sweat wetting the entire body. His breathing roared quickly and his heart was racing. He exhaled a rough breath while rubbing his face. Damnit damnit! It turned out to be a nightmare, it collapsed in his heart and closed his eyes again. Meanwhile, without realizing it there is someone who continues to love him. The man was hiding on the roof of his room. He peeked out from the slightly hollow slit of the roof. But no one was aware of its existence even though it was the shadow of the emperor though. He grinned wide.

"It looks like it's going to be an interesting show" he muttered rubbing his cheeks. His eyes stared at the shadow of the emperor who was standing guard all over the place. He laughed slowly and then walked away.

The next morning the palace was back in flames. Not because of rumors of Yona's death but two shadowy emperors. And the one who killed him was Long Jian. All of that happened due to their negligence of guarding Long Jian from the enemy. Eunuch Bo closed his eyes watching the heads of the two people roll to the floor.

"Damn! Can't they work with becus?" rutuk Zhang Liu muttered. He looked at Long Jian who was stepping on the head of one of the corpses. Blood was soiling the palace floor. In addition, there was a smell of rancid that was coming out.

Eunuch Bo's head fell towards him. He shifted closer to Zhang Liu. "Today the noble mood is deteriorating" whispered eunuch Bo who was gripped by Zhang Liu's breath. He's clucking softly.

"When there was a lot of work to be done," he looked at Long Jian who was playing the corpse's head. He casually used his foot to roll the corpse's head. Eunuch Bo who had since witnessed goosebumps was scared.

"Zhang Liu," Long Jian called out to surprise the two men who were standing not far away from him. They stared in unison at Long Jian. But when looking at Long Jian the heads of the two bowed. "Is there any news from my concubine?" long Jian asked wagging his sword from the rest of the blood. He rubbed the cheek that was covered in blood.

"Your great concubine will come here soon" Zhang Liu replied. The corner of Long Jian's lips lifted.

"Call him to my room later" said Zhang Liu. Long Jian turned around and stepped away. Eunuch Bo immediately followed him quickly. "We will meet again soon, Li Jihyun," he muttered continuously.

...

"Your great concubine is commanded to face the emperor's majesty" Li Jihyun's head was obtained. Zhang Liu who had accidentally looked at Li Jihyun immediately lowered his gaze.

"What's your majesty looking for me?" li Jihyun asked. His eyes glared sharply.
