ZHAO JUREN'S LAST LOVE
CHAPTERS 102. Jade Green Dragon

Consort Huan stood in front of the king's resting hall, for a long time with an uncertain heart since a person he knew as the female bodyguard of the princess Nan Luoxia arrived by running like a loyal person towards that place.

He did not see the black-robed woman crying but it was clear from the look on his face that his anxiety was sky-high.

Four of the king's guards held him back and did not allow him to enter,

"Let me come in, I have to see His Majesty..." Speak with a firm voice.

"Sorry, no one can come in! No one should see His Majesty now." The king's guard commander insisted.

"I beg you..." The half-begging voice came out. But his attitude was like an ice stone, anxious and tense but not crying.

"The reign of the great Princess Nan Luoxia is clear that..."

"I'd like to meet His Majesty...!" Suddenly he took out a hanger from the dragon-carved green jade. It was a sign of honor, which only the royal main family had. The only one who had for the time being was princess Nan Luoxia alone amongst all the king's brothers. Even from all the king's wives to Lin Fangyin's queens didn't have this thing.

It was like a license to see the king without even needing permission. Which meant that he had unlimited access to meet the king at any time.

The four bodyguards retreated looking at the dragon green jade, bowing obediently upon seeing the thing. The commander of the bodyguards suddenly hesitated, staring briefly at Bai Yueyin. Making sure that this was the person the king was referring to, had another green dragon jade other than his beloved sister.

"How do you have it?" ask him carefully.

"I had it 14 years ago, the king himself gave it." He said with a trembling voice. The commander of the guard retreated, he had been the king's bodyguard for a long time and now he knew what the king had said back then, if someone who is not the princess Nan Luoxia comes to her with this green Dragon jade even though she is sleeping though then feel free to wake her up immediately.

After that in front of the nose of concubine Huan, this woman scathed and stood trembling before the king's bed, she did not even look at the concubine Huan in the slightest.

"Your Majesty..." His voice seemed choked, but he did not cry. He just tightly held onto his green dragon jade hanger as if he wanted to crush the thing into pieces of dust.

His Highness Nan Chen's eyes had never been that bright in his entire life, he did not blink looking at the woman who did not even wear any makeup on her face.

Just a moment ago Consort Huan just sat down firmly holding the king's fingers firmly but watched how lovingly looked, the longing and haru were floating in the air thickly between two people who seemed to hold a million longings that were frozen like eternal ice cubes.

Concubine Huan shuddered to herself when she realized, she was holding onto someone's body but that person's heart was in someone else's hands. His heart was drawn in the jade kumala and tightly embraced by a woman who was not at all suspected. A servant girl who has nothing.

Is that semisterius love? Until even without the need for caste he dominates the soul of people? Is that as big as love? until without the need to talk even though they can exchange the taste trapped in their souls.

"Yueyinh..." As His Highness Nan Chen called out the name in such a deep voice, Consort Huan realized that it was time for her to relinquish her grasp on His Highness Nan Chen's hand.

"Finally, you came to me..." One crystal-clear bulir fell at the corner of His Eminence Nan Chen's eyes, like dew in summer. Falling just like that, his eyes could not be separated staring at the money woman in his call Yueyin.

"I guess, even until I die, you never brought back the jade I saw to me..." Lirih.

"I won't let you die, Your Majesty..." He said, in a clear and powerful voice.

"Will not". Strictly speaking, his voice was so loud, it echoed in the quiet main hall, like a swirling pool of water, with all its might, as it did, he rested beside the concubine Huan and clasped His Majesty's hand firmly as if he was fighting with someone else, "There is no way anything can happen to you, Your Majesty!"

His Majesty looked at him, then suddenly smiled weakly, never did Consort Huan see His Majesty's eyes sparkle like that, really! He looked at the woman he called Yueyin as if looking at the most beautiful jewel in the world. He admired her so much that she did not blink.

His Highness Nan Chen's hand clasped tightly onto Bai Yueyin's fingers as if it was a milestone where he had to endure the incitement of the tidal wave.

And when this woman's tears finally sagged on her cheeks, then flowed into her mouth, without a sound like swallowing an unbearable bitter taste.

That was when concubine Huan inched from the side of His Highness Nan Chen, she left without saying goodbye. Because he knows, even though he makes a sound even though he is not considered there.

...***...

"I'm coming for you...Your Majesty, I won't leave if you don't die with that." Bai Yueyin first cried after so many years had passed, she wiggled the hands of His Highness Nan Chen, like a frightened child, her pale lips trembling. The feeling of fear that he had endured since Xue Xue told him about His Majesty's condition seemed to spill over.

"Yueyin, go to him before it's too late. I know, you two miss each other..." The sentence was buzzing until his ears were penniless all the way he ran from Luoxia palace towards the king's private hall.

"If by piercing a dagger in my chest makes you come to me, then I'd be willing to be pricked many more times..." King Nan Chen laughed softly as he clasped Bai Yueyin's hand tightly.

Whether how many years had passed, their fingers counted each season remembering each other's time but could not meet, the time passed like a clear spring, little by little it flowed into the desolate and cold air, helplessly. Love froze, as cold as snow, they clasped each other but dared not meet each other.

Bai Yueyin looked at that face, tyrannical and tired, completely different in their childhood, her heart ached as if gouged out with dagger eyes.

"Didn't you ever miss me, Yueyin?" His Highness Nan Chen's voice sounded bland like lake water.

Bai Yueyin did not reply, she just bit her lower lip, the old habit of this girl that the prince had always liked Nan Chen in the past.

"Have you ever thought of me?" His Majesty asked again, that line of smile floating like a sideburn on the surface of his pale lips.

"Don't ask me anything more, Your Majesty..." Bai Yueyin sighed, she did not hold back any more tears. She was no longer afraid to cry, just like the last years she kept it.

The night light was like water from a five-colored lake, so cold, His Majesty Nan Chen's forehead furrowed deeply like a flame tongue blown by the wind between his long hair of unravelling clubs, his pair of eyes glittered hazyly, staring at Bai Yueyin without blinking.

"Yueyin, can you help me get up?"
