The Emperor's Prisoner
Episode 5's

Li Jihyun inhaled the afternoon air. For a long time he did not feel the beautiful and cold air. Either luck or bad luck. Li Jihyun could be reincarnated into the royal age. The era is still far from the word advanced technology as in previous lives. Although he had enjoyed the calm before staying in the palace but he was quite grateful. It's just to survive in the palace. He has to be strong and smart.

Getting rid of an enemy that is plaguing his life is the beginning of his revenge. He must make lowly men like the lady-in-waiting submit under his command. Enough to use the memory in a previous life. He could definitely sit on the imperial singasana. Li Jihyun continued to walk around the garden which was still unchanged despite changing emperors.

Long Jian did not seem interested in taking care of the garden. So everything still looks the same as when he came here. Li Jihyun was enjoying the beauty of the garden.

Suddenly a sound of steps approached him. Li Jihyun turned around and looked at the figure that came to her. Long Jian was flabbergasted to see Li Jihyun realizing her arrival. This woman is really interesting. It seems that I did not pick it up wrong, Inner Long Jian smiled faintly.

Li Jihyun stared intently at Long Jian. But he still greeted her even though hatred raged on. “Good afternoon your highness emperor.”

“One coincidence we can meet here. There's something I want to ask,” Long Jian said lowering his gaze towards Li Jihyun's hand. The girl's hand was wrapped in bandages.

“Tell me your majesty. If it's an easy question I will definitely answer it.”

“How can you be sure of your idea?” Li Jihyun sighed softly. The girl smiled thinly.

“What now do you doubt my idea? It turns out you are a planless ruler,” taunted Li Jihyun.

Long Jian raised his eyebrows next to his. Especially when he saw Li Jihyun's gaze that seemed relaxed and mocking him. It was as if he did not know anything while in front of Li Jihyun.

“Li Jihyun while I ask well better better answer well. Or my sword will cut off your head,” Long Jian threatened coldly. But Li Jihyun did not care to cover her lips with the tip of hanfu's arm. The corner of his lips lifted.

“Gosh! I was afraid to hear it. But the idea I said it would definitely work. That's also if you believe in captive concubines like me,” said Li Jihyun tilted her face.

“Heh? Arrogant woman. I will definitely cut off your neck if this plan fails. Just look,” threatened Long Jian turned around and stepped away.

“It is an honor that I will wait for his highness the emperor,” Li Jihyun said staring at his back. Long Jian continued walking. He was really confused by Li Jihyun. The girl who had no fear of him. Though it could have been a sword that was attached to his waist floated to his neck. But, the girl even responded to him casually. Even ridiculed him.

Let's see Li Jihyun. I'll definitely kill you. Just wait, Inner Long Jian continued walking into the palace. He's really upset right now.

“Yes noble how can this plan stop drought?” protest of one of the eastern faction's members. Long Jian stared intently making the member immediately speechless.

“You have a minister I trust. Do as I say or you know the punishment that will be faced for anyone who opposes,” threatened Long Jian made the guts of the ministers shrivel. Their heads bowed with trembling bodies. “Good. Now you guys disperse. I have to get back to doing something else,” get rid of him flapping his hands in the air.

Ministers with disappointed faces and fear dissolved themselves. There was a whisper from a distance. But Long Jian did not care at all. He rubbed the handle of the singasana chair. His mind wandered far away.

“Easy Bo,” call Long Jian break the silence. The shocked Eunuch Bo instantly trembled.

“Yes your honor. A-There can I help?” asked Kasim Bo politely. Cold sweat dripping down the forehead.

“Call the girl here,” Long Jian's words made Eunuch Bo confused. He opened his mouth but was afraid. Especially when looking at the sharp gaze of Long Jian.

“Sa-I'm sorry your highness,” said Kasim Bo stuttered. He bowed respectfully and then left. Long Jian let out a short breath. His gaze swept clean the meeting room. Looks broad and quiet.

“Very boring,” rutuk Long Jian propping up chin. His eyes looked dull.

Eunuch Bo paced back and forth walking in the corridor. His pale face looked anxious. Even the sweat that had flooded his face had not been cared about. “Kasim Bo what are you doing here?” zhang Liu asked curiously. Eunuch Bo turned his attention to Zhang Liu.

His face also turned fresh. “Thank God we meet here prime minister Zhang Liu,” Kasim Bo said with sparkling eyes.

“What's Kasim Bo? What noble told you to do something strange again?” Eunuch Bo hesitantly nodded her head. Zhang Liu sighed softly and looked at the concerned Eunuch Bo.

It was not once or twice that Long Jian had his subordinates do strangely and make them trouble. Zhang Liu already knew it was only Long Jian's reason to finish them off. Long Jian's bad habits considered the death of people to be mere entertainment. Even though Zhang Liu knew he couldn't prevent it. Can only help them as much as possible.

“The noble one told me to look for a girl. But I don't know the girl,” complains Kasim Bo. Zhang Liu sighed again. Even to search for people alone Long Jian did not mention the traits more clearly.

Is it possible that the girl who was taken prisoner? Zhang Liu in his heart. “Go to concubine pavilion. Meet the girl named Li Jihyun,” said Zhang Liu making Kasim Bo's eyes more sparkling.

“One more time thank you prime minister,” Kasim Bo said gratefully.

“You should be quick to look for it before something bad happens,” Zhang Liu said immediately making Eunuch Bo run hastily to the concubine pavilion. Zhang Liu who saw Eunuch Bo could only shake his head.

Eunuch Bo finally arrived in front of the concubine pavilion. His eyes blinked at the sight of many beautiful women relaxing on the terrace. He squinted his eyes looking for a lady. A ladyboy passed by Kasim Bo.

“Wait a minute,” said Kasim Bo stopped the steps of the lady. The dayang immediately turned around and watched Eunuch Bo from top to bottom. He scrunched his forehead. “Do you know where concubine Li Jihyun is?” asked Kasim Bo to make the forehead of the lady fold.

“Are you ... Kasim Bo?” asked the ladyboy who was taken in by Kasim Bo. “Gosh!” the lady was surprised to close her mouth.
