The Princess Story's
Ep 77's. The world is unfair
It didn't take long, the healer came with the medicine box. The physician checked Se Se's state, he sighed and said,
"The baby inside is fine, but the Empress' body is very weak. Please pay attention to your health, Empress. Don't make any energy-draining moves, the Queen's body can't stand it."
"Thank you healer, I will pay attention." replied Se Se.
Yu escorted the healer out, while Se Se was still lying down thinking about who the person who was trying to kill him was.
King Wei had just returned from his duties, he was shocked when he saw some murderous corpses lying on the ground.
"Xiao Se!" muttered King Wei.
She ran at full speed towards her empress' room.
"Brakk!"
The door of the room opened violently, he entered and immediately hugged the girl. Se Se was just frozen in silence because he was confused by her treatment.
"Are you okay? Is anyone hurt?" asked King Wei in an anxious voice.
"I'm fine, just a small wound" Se Se replied with a happy smile on his face.
"Hufff..."
King Wei sighed in relief that his empress was fine. But a second later his eyes widened, he took off his embrace and asked.
"Little baby, how about a little baby?"
Se Se felt overwhelmed at hearing that question. She could not believe King Wei would ask about her baby with such a golden face.
Although King Wei once said he would love a baby in his stomach, he thought the words were only to comfort him. He did not expect King Wei would really love the baby in his stomach who was either a baby.
Se Se hugged King Wei and said, "We're fine my husband, sorry for worrying you."
King Wei moved their room, he did not want his empress to sleep in a room filled with the smell of blood.
King Wei accompanied his queen to sleep. The young man headed for the study when Se Se was already asleep. He ordered the 10-member Eagle Force to protect his empress.
"Yu, investigate the mastermind behind this murder!" king Wei's Order.
"Your Majesty, I found this thing on their bodies" Yu said as he handed over the black market hitman's stamp.
"Investigate from there" said King Wei.
"Your Majesty." replied Yu.
Yu was still there motionlessly, King Wei asked him, "Is there anything else?"
"Your Majesty, I am guilty of failing to protect the empress. Servant asks to be punished for the mistake." said Yu while kneeling.
"You will be punished with 30 lashes, go to the punishment room" King Wei said.
"Thank you Your Majesty" Yu said and went to the punishment room.
Yu carried out his duties after receiving the punishment. He left with a whip wound that was not cleaned, only originally wrapped in a white cloth.
The day started to light, King Wei returned to his room after finishing reading the documents. His beloved wife was still sleeping soundly, she kissed the girl's cheek and lay down beside him.
"Tok Tok Tok!"
Ling er knocked on the door of the room, Se Se opened his eyes, he looked at the sleeping King Wei with a frown.
"What did he dream of? Why is his forehead wrinkled like that?" inner Se Se.
Se Se got up from his bed, he opened the door and asked Ling Er not to be noisy. He did not want King Wei to be distracted.
Se Se cleansed her face and changed clothes. He sat in the courtyard with Ling Er who was tidying up his hair.
"Miss, did Miss know Yu was convicted last night?" ask Ling Er.
"No, why was he punished?" ask Se Se curiously.
"He was punished by King Wei because miss was injured" Ling Er replied.
"Punishment whips as much as 30 times miss." Ling Er replied as she furrowed her brows.
"Where is he now?" ask Se Se worried.
"Yu is out, it looks like King Wei told him to do something" Ling Er said.
"Tell him to see me when he comes back." orders Se Se.
"Well Miss." replied Ling Er.
Se Se returned to the room, she sat on the edge of the bed looking at her husband's face.
"What's on my husband's mind? why is he sleeping with a restless face?" se Se Gumam Se.
"I think of the safety of my wife and my little baby who are in danger" replied King Wei.
King Wei opened his eyes and wrapped his hands around Se Se's waist. The girl was intending to kiss her cheek but King Wei purposely pointed her lips towards it.
"Muachin..!"
Se Se's face flushed red, he looked annoyed at King Wei's tease.
"Bad guy!" he said with a loud tone.
"But my queen likes it, right?" said King Wei with his mischievous smile.
"It sucks!" se Se replied with a pouting face.
King Wei got up from the bed, he sat down beside Se Se. The young man placed his palm on Se Se's stomach and said, "My little baby, the empress is currently sulking. What am I supposed to do to make him forgive me?"
Se Se chuckled at King Wei's words, he replied, "Your empress wants to eat sweet food, please buy her a tanghulu."
King Wei stroked Se Se Se's slender belly and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, I'll buy it soon."
"Pffl... "
Se Se held back his laughter, he found it amusing to see King Wei acting like a child.
"This guy is very capricious, sometimes he's like a big boss, sometimes he's whiny like a woman, and right now he's acting like a kid. Where is the real you?" inner Se Se.
Yu returned from his duties, he headed to King Wei's study, he entered and waited for his master there.
Ling Er saw him from a distance as he walked into the room, Ling Er followed and passed Se Se's message to Yu.
Yu walked with Ling Er to Se Se's room, King Wei had just come out to buy tanghulu, Se Se was sitting in the front garden of the room enjoying the blowing wind.
"Miss, Yu is back." Ling Er reported.
"Sincerely my Empress." said Yu greeting with a slight bow.
"Open your clothes!" se Se Command.
"Yes?" yu asked to confirm his hearing.
"Open your shirt! don't make me repeat the third time" Se Se said in an annoyed tone.
Yu undecidedly undressed, he did not know what the empress would do, yet he did not dare to refuse Se Se's orders.
Yu took off all his clothes, just the rest of his trousers. Ling Er closed his eyes when he saw Yu's body, he felt embarrassed to see a man's body.
"Sit down!" se Se Command.
Yu complied and sat down on a chair next to the table. Se Se opened all the cloths that wrapped his wounds. The cloth was filled with blood stains.
Many whip wounds on the young man's body, Se Se felt sorry to see him. He asked Ling Er to bring water and a clean cloth.
"He sacrificed his life to help me, but all he got were lashes and pain. This world is really unfair." Inner Se Se.
