ZHAO JUREN'S LAST LOVE
CHAPTER 73. That Love...?

GECK! GECK! GECK!

The knock on the door of Xue Xue Xue's room immediately made these two people realize

self, the faces of both of them blushed in an instant.

"Mr Princess, it's too late now, can I come in?" It was Bai Yueyin's voice.

Xue Xue quickly pushed Zhao Juren's body down from the bed, she herself jumped up nervously.

"Yes, come in." His mouth while tidying his hair and dress a little messy, the same thing was done by Zhao Juren who soon realized if he was in the clothes of a woman.

Bai Yueyin walked in with a suspicious look at Zhao Juren. His sharp eyes as sharp as a tersu eagle followed the figure that stood tensely not far from Xue Xue.

"Mr Princess, you should rest, a bodyguard was conveying His Highness Nan Chen's message, tomorrow you are asked to take care of the death of a concubine who died earlier in pregnancy. His Majesty just wants you to specifically handle it without the knowledge of the harem people." That sentence Bai Yueyin said with a little hesitation considering the existence of others now who were in their midst.

Xue Xue frowned.

"Who died? which noble wife is it?"

"Mrs Siaw."

"Oh." Xue Xue nodded her head.

"Mr Zhao.." suddenly Bai Yueyin turned to Zhao Juren.

"Would you go now to the butler's hall, I have requested a room for you and your friend behind the palace kitchen on May Dayang. Outside there are my men who will deliver you, I hope you do not need to act. Tomorrow morning make sure you get out of this palace. I don't want to make my Princess any trouble because of you. If you were a commoner I wouldn't worry about my employer so much. Your status can obviously create a big commotion if known together with my employer."  Bai Yueyin said firmly, she clearly did not feel the need to ask Xue Xue for permission to say this which was similar to an order.

"Yueyinh..." Xue Xue herself looked helplessly at the personal bodyguard as well as the person she thought was this big brother.

"Mr Princess, it's enough to play around. This is the palace, I'm afraid this has gone too far. The risk is very high if it gets caught. This palace even has eyes." Bai Yueyin bowed to Xue Xue who was silent a thousand languages.

"Let's sir, I'll take you out."

And Xue Xue did not try to hold him back, except to let Zhao Juren get out immediately.

"I'll be waiting for you at the inn of the city." Zhao Juren said before following Bai Yueyin's steps out.

***

Xue Xue slept very well this night, as if soaking in very warm water. In his imagination he seemed to return to the warm army barracks, then to the very place in his tribe, the Tianshi palace, stood among the peach trees surrounding the palace, enjoy its distinctive fragrance. After the death of Zhao Juren last night, he did not sleep immediately but struggled with his own imagination. It was amazingly strange the feeling that was now swirling at him. Zhao Juren, Jiu Fei's older brother's lover, had finally met and now he had no disowns of the man's charm, which could even make Jiu Fei betray one country and lose his family.

Someone stuck out her ice-cold hand, patting her face with

gently, so forcefully for her to get out of bed, Xue Xue instead closed her eyes even more and curled even stronger under her blanket.

"Master Zhao, why are you bothering me so much." he muttered in between drowsiness.

In that instant, he almost felt his eyes twitching, his brain not too bright, he stared at him without blinking, slowly frowning, his face very serious.

"You better hurry up, empress Fangyin wants to meet, she's now outside." Bai Yueyin continued while pulling the blankets of Xue Xue. He used to do it since this girl was a teenager, Nan Chen appointed him to be the bodyguard of the younger brother.

"Sister Fangyin?" Xue Xue scratched her head that was not itchy. Her face looked annoyed because her dream was interrupted because her sister's wife had wanted to see her in the morning.

"I wonder, if I go back to this palace, so many problems have occurred, they are all so annoying that I really like Tianshi Palace. It's quieter than all these places in Nanxing." Xue Xue said as she lowered her feet under the bed about to head to the basin the maid had prepared to wash her face. At the same time something fell to the floor, golden in color.

"What's this?" Xue Xue picked up a flute that was not as long as it glittered pretty in golden color.

"That seems like a Xiao." Bai Yueyin frowned.

"Xiao? Is that Xiao?"

"Xiao is a typical flute from the Yanzhie area..."

Bai Yueyin's reply made Xue Xue speechless, she was sure this was Zhao Juren's scattered possession.

"Mr Princess, Her Majesty consort Lin Fangyin is waiting for you." Bai Yueyin.

"I know..." Xue Xue replied as she placed the Xiao into the drawer of her reading table.

"Yueyinh..." Xue Xue started to wash her face, the servant sitting on his knees next to her looked faithfully holding some neatly folded cloth on the tray, waiting for Xue Xue to finish washing her face.

For some princesses, it was the maid who washed her face and even washed her face but for Xue Xue, it was, she was used to doing it herself even though prayer was the number one princess in Niangxi after His Highness Nan Chen and prince Nan Yuhuai.

"Yes..."Yueyin who was standing not far from there scrunched her forehead.

"Is...have you ever been in love?" Xue Xue asked with a gambled voice.

Bai Yueyin's face flushed red she threw away her gaze for a moment in a puff, the question made her chest rumble for a moment.

"Why does the princess ask such a thing?" Bai Yueyin asked back.

"brother Jiu once said, Love is when we close our eyes and feel that person in our head. Love is the desire to stay in the same place with the person we like. That love..." Xue Xue was silent for a moment not continuing her sentence with her own confusion translating her feelings.

"Love is sometimes hopeless, she can be a deadly poison if you let her get into you too deeply..." The sentence was slurred, uttered by Yueyin with her flat, ice-cold face to the north.
