The Shadow Of Princess
Episode 29's
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry if I'm being disrespectful." Said Yuen bowing she brushed off Do Jian's hand.
"Yuen, what are you doing? It's Yuen let's get out of here." Invite Do Jian to pull Yuen's arm. "No, I don't want to leave before I tell you everything."
They whispered whispering stirring up a commotion. Do Jian rubbed his wanted face as he dragged Yuen out. "Don't let Shuwang's daughter's secret be exposed." His inner.
"Your majesty you should know who Li Shuwang really is. She is.." Do Jian's loud voice made all fixated. His eyes look angry.
"ENOUGH! STOP YUEN!" Yuen flabbergasted. "Do Jian, what are you thinking? What happens until you defend him? He's a murderer." Yuen squeezed the end of her hanfunya.
"Yuen, get out of here right now. I don't want to see you." Yuen shakes. "No, I'm not leaving. Don't tell me you already know who he is." Point Yuen towards Li Shuwang's body.
"Don't be so presumptuous in front of the princess or I'll hit you." Sergei Do Jian. "I don't care what you want to do to me. But, it's important I have to tell everyone."
Yuen turned her body around smiling. "Your majesty sorry for the commotion just now. There's something I have to say." Everyone held a curious breath at Yuen's words.
"Look at Li Shuwang even to death I will make you suffer." Yuen grinned. "Princess Li Shuwang is a mixed-blooded child who should have died during the time of emperor Cheng Yu."
All shocked they stared at Li Shuwang's body. Li Quin trembled he drooped. "Your majesty! Your majesty!"
"No I'm fine. Don't worry." Everyone was worried that concubine Hua Shing was approaching.
"Your majesty don't be so emotional. Remember your health." Concubine Hua Shing's advice. Li Quin nodded his head.
"And he caused all the trouble that befell us." All shocked Do Jian pulled Yuen forcefully. "Do Jian, what are you doing?" Do Jian remained silent.
"Do Jian do you still love the late brother Yuan?" Asked Yuen Do Jian's movements stopped he turned his head.
"Never ask that question again." Answer Do Jian. "Huh, I already know the answer. You love him. He's the cause of the mess."
"Enough Yuen!" Yuen shook her head she looked at Li Quin Lamat. "Your Majesty asked you to burn Li Shuwang's body. Because, he's the cause of all the destruction." Li Quin was silent staring at Li Shuwang's body he was still shocked to hear Yuen's words.
"Your Majesty, please think about what Yuen said. Li Shuwang is a liar. He had already deceived the entire Wang Jian Li royal family." Said Gong Duan. Li Quin sighed he lowered his head.
"Gong Duan, do you know who he is?" Gong Duan's forehead wrinkled. "What do you mean, your highness?" Li Quin laughed softly shaking his head slowly.
"Do you know where Li Shang is?" Li Quin looked at the confused Gong Duan. "It's not that Mr. Li Shang is healing. And he said he would be home in the near future after finishing the war with the Jiangshi people in Shang Huan forest."
"He is the Li Shang you guys are glorifying. And how can I as a father punish his dead daughter? What do you think Gong Duan should do?" Gong Duan's lips trembled he only realized that Li Shang had been Li Shuwang.
"I'm sorry my majesty I've been wrong. I don't know if he's been Mr. Li Shang all along. Forgive me your majesty." Gong Duan was restless.
"Everything means nothing anymore. And, now all I can do is pay my last respects." Said Li Quin listlessly. Yuen did not accept him coming forward in front of her face looking angry.
"Your Majesty don't accept that. Li Shuwang deserves to be punished." Sergey Yuen Li Quin only smiled faintly. "Would punishing the dead give satisfaction?"
"But, your honor.." Li Quin shook his head. "Son, even if he's done something wrong. Forgive him and besides his secret I ask to keep it a secret. And all of you even though you all know who he is. I just ask you to still consider her as Wang Jian Li's royal princess."
They looked at each other and then bowed. "Okay, your honor." Yuen did not accept him stepping out in a hurry. "What's so great about him being defended by everyone? I hate him. He had already captured Do Jian's heart the person I liked. I'll always hate you Li Shuwang."
Yuen wiped away the dripping tears. No one knows how he feels right now. "Yuen, what makes it like this? You used to be a good woman and accepted everyone with open arms. But.." Do Jian exhaled.
"Your majesty can we start?" Li Quin nodded. The monk began the ritual of Li Shuwang's death in an orderly manner.
All of them seem sad even the universe cries for the departure of the warrior and the daughter who is famous for her wisdom.
Do Jian looked at the yong jian sword that was in his hand under the speck of rain. "Although, we haven't seen each other for a long time but I feel you are everything to me. And you treated me well. But, why are you disguised as a man? Just to return the favor?"
Do Jian stared at the puddle of water that reflected a shadow of himself. "Heh, thankfully Yuen didn't realize that I now have Jiangshi's powers. Apparently, the effect doesn't work too long."
"Do Jian?" Do Jian turned his head to a hoarse voice calling out to him. "Crown son Li Luan." Do Jian bowed Li Luan smiled.
"Sit down, don't bother me." Relaxed words. Do Jian sat inserting the yong jian sword. Li Luan who was looking was amazed.
"That's not Shuwang's sword?" Do Jian turned his head to nod Li Luan's tears immediately spilled.
"My brother Shuwang at a young age you have to leave us. I was hoping you'd come home and go together like you used to. I'm a useless brother." Do Jian patted Li Luan's shoulder smiling.
"Just let Li Shuwang's daughter go in peace. He'll always be here wherever we go." Li Luan. "You're right Shuwang definitely won't like seeing us all sad."
"Do Jian after this where are you going?" Do Jian smiled. "I'll go wandering." Li Luan rounded her eyes.
"What did you say? Then what about Shuwang's message?" Do Jian sighed. "When I'm ready I'll fulfill his request." Said Do Jian steady.
"Where are you going?" Do Jian took a slow breath. "I will follow my heart wherever I go."
