The Queen Of The Dark
Rebirith Of The God Of War [Chapter XII]
“Why do you think you are not wise? Do you have a reason for Prince Yelu Yun?” Prince Yun Fengyin asked with a clenched right hand cupped with his left hand, he bowed his body slightly.
Prince Yelu Yun smiled obliquely, “certain... You see! They were Imperial captives, no matter what their status was before entering the Empire's territory, it would all have no effect to change their current captive status. You know for yourself, don't you? They are the same as SLAVES!! They do not deserve to be servants at the residence of a Prince.”
“Ah, about his status apparently...,” Prince Yun Fengyin nodded his head repeatedly, “try now I equate their situation with you... Your mother was a servant of the eastern Yun Kingdom, your father, King Yun Yong slept with her until she became pregnant, then you were born in the world. You are indeed an illegitimate child, but you deserve to be the Prince of the Eastern Yun Kingdom right?”
“What do you mean by likening them to me!!” Yelu Yun took a step forward, he pulled the rough hanfu that Prince Yun Fengyin was wearing.
The two princes of Yun Kingdom clashed face to face, the look in Yelu Yun's eyes hinted at the ferocity and desire to tear Yun Fengyin's body into pieces.
“Hehe... Of course the same,” Prince Yun Fengyin turned things around, he spoke while putting away Prince Yelu Yun's hand, “sama-sama should have been changed by the Empire's side, both overturning between error and truth... They were right but blamed, and you!! You were born from a mistake but were justified, even you were recognized as a legitimate Prince!!”
“You—” Yelu Yin's words were cut off as Kasim Zixin opened her voice.
“Prince Fengyin, I allow you to make them servants in your residence. On two conditions! First, if they survive the wolf hunt until the last minute. Second, you must send them one month at least five and a maximum of six times into the white orchid residence.”.
“Alright, I accept those two conditions,” Prince Yun Fengyin lowered his head respectfully then stepped back.
King Kangjian Yun stared with a deep look from a distance, “...” felt his son did not need his help to deal with the matter, he immediately smiled faintly and accompanied by a brief nod of his head.
Unlike the heated debate that was taking place in the stands, in the middle of the field, some small children were running rags, they were like ants that were being watered by water.
Running, that was what they had in mind right now!
The arrows shot out like rain, the wolves ran over the prey, and blood reminisced in the field area. There was a mutual scream, the officials and members of Kerajan just considered it a spectacle, a few minutes later, the darting arrows began to change targets. Dozens of arrows struck the wolf that was tearing flesh with hunger, instantly, the wolf died in terrible conditions.
The surviving child began to stop his footsteps, they began to catch their breath to be as stable as ever. Yue Liang Zhi untied her head, wrapped back the cloth on the injured arm area, slowly Bai Yun approached towards his sister, he helped Yue Liang Zhi tie the white cloth that had already been stained with blood, “are you still able to endure the pain?”
“Yes, this is just a small wound,” Yue Liang Zhi smiled small, “assume the bitten cat has bitten me”
Lei Hu's scalp immediately went numb hearing the answer as if the wound was just a trivial matter.
“Meimei[1]... Why have you changed? You're not like a five-year-old kid, your nature isn't even what it used to be. Your courage... You haven't had this kind of courage in the past, yet, no matter how you change, and no matter how brave you are. Whenever and wherever, you will still be my dear sister!!” Said Bai Yun gently, slowly he raised his hand towards Yue Liang Zhi's head, “why can your head hurt?”
^^^[1] May May \= Sister. Used by biological or adopted younger siblings, cousins of the same generation on the side of the same father, wife and husband's concubine, close friends.^^^
“I don't know, I don't remember anything....” Yue Liang Zhi stared in her brother's eyes, “actually, what has happened? Why did those soldiers catch us?”
Yue Liang Zhi lowered Bai Yun's hand, “kak, my wound really need not be looked at excessively. So, let's explain it to me.”
There was a sigh coming from Bai Yun's mouth, “we live in Cai Hong Village, once, the village had a massive robbery. Father and mother told us to run away, but.” slowly tears began to drip down her cheeks, a small stuffing into an explanatory pause that was thrown from her mouth. “However, when we return, Cai Hong Village has been burned to the ground, there is nothing left, all destroyed and already reduced to ashes. I decided to take you away to the territory of Lei Kingdom, but while on the road, the Huo Empire warriors captured me and I have asked you to run as far as possible. Who would have thought? Turns out, Yue'er was also caught and we were both suspected of being from the booty area.”
“That's the name you want to go into the rabbit cage, unfortunately the rabbit cage is filled with tigers!!” Cut Lei Hu while walking towards the brothers.
“Kak Lei Hu?” Yue Liang Zhi turned her head.
“Lei? Put—” Bai Yun choked on his own snot, his breathing choked and his nose felt sore.
“I'm not a princess anymore!” Firmly Lei Hu cut off Bai Yun's words, he also followed Yue Liang Zhi's wounds.
Yue Liang Zhi puffed her milk fat cheeks, her big eyes shining reflecting the light. Her black hair that was perfectly matched with jade-white skin, her cute face added to the adorable impression even though it was covered in dry soil. “Sucks!! Huo Empire was indeed heartless—” its mouth suddenly caught in Bai Yun's hands, 'heartless! is everyone numb already?' Without poking a mouthful, Yue Ling Zhi remained nagging while pointing indistinctly, “mmm... Mm... Mmmmm..”
The Imperial soldiers approached some children who were resting. Roughly, they pulled the force to enter the carriage, the carriage was specially for the prisoners. Unlike Yue Liang Zhi, Bai Yun and Lei Hu, when the soldiers were about to forcefully pull them away, suddenly a hand slapped the soldier's shoulder. The soldiers' hands stopped, accompanied by spontaneous heads.
Seen a Prince who was smiling sweetly, his eyes radiated a spirit of life and motivation. The scorching sunlight does not reduce the level of good looks, the white hanfu seems to symbolize a speck of stars in the dark night sky, “want you take where my servant?” yun Fengyin asked while showing the servant ownership letter.
The soldiers began to step back and turned to pull the few remaining children.
'The waiter? Aren't we going to be prisoners, even they could have made us slaves?' Yue Liang Zhi furrowed her brows.
The three walked absent-mindedly into the horse carriage.
Kovoi walked down the road. The horse-drawn carriage at the very back of the party shook violently, as it crossed the uneven road. From inside the carriage, Yue Liang Zhi looked at the road whose edge was filled with trees. Lonely, cool and comfortable, for some reason, she felt something familiar. With a quiet situation, he felt calm and sorrow at the same time.
After five hours, the kovoi arrived in front of the gate of the western Yun Kingdom.
The door was slowly opened wide, the horse carriage continued to speed past the crowd of citizens, along the way, many citizens were welcoming the arrival of the King and his Prince. Many of them were prostrating themselves on the ground, not infrequently they were shouting the name of King Kangjian Yun.
The horse-drawn carriage and the soldiers stopped right in front of a kingdom, with cherry trees adorning the courtyard. The king and the prince went down the chariot, of course the chariot that the King and the servant rode on was different, in terms of luxurious ornaments, there was furniture in it and a shock-resistant carriage. Yue Liang Zhi descended the carriage, followed by Bai Yun and Lei Hu.
The majestic radiance of Bai Yun's pair of eyeballs could not be covered, Lei Hu looked at the sneering Kingdom and Yue Lian Zhi who was staring flatly expressionlessly.
