The Emperor's Prisoner
Episode 50's

Hai Rong's eyes immediately glazed over. Tears fell rolling down the cheeks. That night in the emperor's room only the sound of Hai Rong's cries could be heard. They're all mumbling.

"We cannot explain the noble circumstances in detail. Now it's night you should go back to the room," said Zhang Liu, who was shaken by Hai Rong, making the man careless. "There's no point in you here. You just calm down. There's eunuch Bo who guards his majesty. So now you come with me back." Zhang Liu forcibly pulled Hai Rong's arm.

How hard Hai Rong rejected the man completely unconcerned and continued to pull him out. Eunuch Bo exhaled a rough breath and looked back at Long Jian. His face looked gloomy. "I hope you will soon realize your highness," muttered eunuch Bo lirih.

....

"Your great concubine is asked to come to the hall." Li Jihyun who was polishing the cheeked powder stopped her movements. His head was turned back.

"Who told you to?" li Jihyun asked putting the powder on the table. His eyes stared fixedly at Lian who was standing before him. The woman bowed respectfully.

"I was told by Mr. Zhang prime minister to deliver a message to his highness the great concubine," Lian replied making her smile thinly.

So he wants to invite me to cooperate? Not a bad thing, inner Li Jihyun.

"Master also said that he will take care of the Xu family matters representing you." Li Jihyun was a little surprised to hear that.

How does he know? li Jihyun thought astonished. Could someone have told him? li Jhyun asked inwardly. "Then for yesterday's second lady's problem. Is it done?" li Jihyun asked looking at Lian made the woman pause for a moment.

"Master prime minister himself took care of it," Lian replied with her head bowed.

"Aren't you going to defend him?" tanya Li Jihyun got up from her seat and walked over to Lian. Make the distance between them erode. He touched the woman's shoulder. "How come those two people are your friends? Don't you feel sympathy for them?" li Jihyun asked again by testing Lian's loyalty. He still has not found the bright spot of his problem. Especially the one behind who spread information about him. However, the information was too accurate until he himself could not deny it.

The dayang sent by Long Jian was all eyes or there was only one two people. Especially now that Long Jian was lying sick. Changing the state of the palace to chaos. I also have to take care of concubine Hai later, inner Li Jihyun who instantly remembered Hai Rong.

Lian gulped. What does the noble concubine mean to ask me that? inner Lian. "I think they deserve to be punished. However insulting the imperial family was an act that crossed the line," Lian said making Li Jihyun smile.

"I like you Lian. I hope you continue to be my next paddle," Li Jihyun said to Lian's surprise. But the woman hid it in a calm manner.

Can, the inner Li Jihyun cheered inwardly. It seemed like almost all of the maids that Long Jian had sent were eyes. It was only fitting that the man could get a lot of information from him. "of course. I trust you," Li Jihyun said with a big smile. "Now help me prepare. We should go see Zhang Liu immediately."

"Okay, your honor."

Hmph! He thinks I don't know he's hiding his identity. Basic naive, Li Jihyun's inner self looked at Lian from the reflection of the mirror. The dayang painstakingly decorated Li Jihyun until she turned beautiful. The girl did not stop admiring the beauty of her face. He looked at the mirror.

After dressing up with Lian, Li Jihyun walked towards the main palace. The concubine and the lady who passed by him bowed respectfully. The girl walked gracefully and was a little haughty. But while passing through the turn of the palace hallway he met Hai Rong. The woman was slightly surprised to see Li Jihyun. Hunt him down he bowed respectfully.

"Concubine Hai greets her noble concubine," he said politely.

"Thanks to your head concubine Hai," said Li Jihyun smiling widely. Hai Rong's head lifted making their eyes meet each other. In a moment you will be expelled from here concubine Hai. I will wait for the right moment, inner Li Jihyun. For now he had to gather all the information about Hai Rong then attack him. Aside from the betrayal Hai Rong's father had committed on the Western faction. They are relics from the previous empire.

But because Long Jian became emperor made Hai Rong's father switch factions. Though previously they were the same fighting to defend the empire. But after the empire lost he chose to become a follower of Long Jian. That was what had saved him from the massacre that Long Jian had committed. Even Hai Rong himself was not much different from his father. Although what Hai Rong did made Li Jihyun free from the emperor's punishment. But still Li Jihyun was still upset about the bidding matter that Hai Rong had with the Xu family. He made Li Jihyun a guarantee for the Xu family to side with them. That meant that his movements were limited and definitely monitored indirectly by Hai Rong.

"Did the noble grand concubine go to meet the emperor's majesty?" hai Rong asked after a long time of silence.

"of course. But he is my husband. So I should have come to see him. So excuse me first," said Li Jihyun past Hai Rong. At a glance he saw Hai Rong's annoyed face. But the girl didn't care and kept going.

"Wait a moment, Your Majesty," hold Hai Rong to stop his steps. "Sorry if I'm sassy. His Majesty the emperor is also my husband. So can you give me my regards?" pinta Hai Rong made Lian's eyes widen in shock.

Is this woman unaware of her position? Or is he crazy? This girl is the noble concubine. How could he casually tell her at will? inner Lian glanced at Li Jihyun's back. The breath sounded.

"Do I need to say firmly the position of our concubine Hai?" li Jihyun asked without looking back at her.

"A-What do you mean? Don't forget who released you from prison?!" hai Rong said irately surprising Lian and Fen who were still there. Fen was about to prevent his master but was already stoked by anger. He bit his lower lip.

"ah! Sure oes. It's your job to repay my slaves" Li Jihyun turned her back. His eyes looked at Hai Rong sharply making the woman shudder. He crossed his arms over his chest and raised his chin until it seemed haughty. "Is this the teaching y of mister Hai?" ledek Li Jihyun made Hai Rong's face flushed.
