During the banquet
Everyone can feel the gloomy atmosphere that surrounds the man seated at the center..
No one has the guts to raise their heads for fear to earn the wrath of the son of the dragon..
They stiffly displaying their so called etiquette in front of the feast while holding their breath.
But the woman seating beside the beloved shu guifei is constantly fidgeting, observing closely there are some cold sweat forming at her flawless forehead. And a minute later, an unwanted and stinky smell slowly spreading in the banquet.
Yan Yao Yao immediately hide behind her mother Shu Gufei. Rui wangye at the other side of his mother, hastily cover his nose.
"INSOLENCE!" the emperor stood like a King Yama ready to reclaim their poor souls, who would have thought that someone from the royal family have eaten a tiger to do an outrageous thing in front of the emperor
All the maids and the eunuch are trembling in fright and immediately kneel.
Only Eunuch Wei, calmly look at the members of the royal family while his gaze linger more at the spoiled 3rd Princess.
Eunuch Wei can only helplessly shook his head, even without his words the emperor already heard the things that happened between the Duan Wangfei and the 3rd Princess. The emperor personal shadow guards are closely protecting the people of Duan Wangfu.
It was not a secret, how the phoenix pavilion reclaim numerous corpse by entering without the consent of Duan Wangye. But he knows it was never the work of 2nd prince but the emperor himself with his trusted shadow guards.
Shu Gufei is no fool, that was the only reason the emperor let her stay in her position. Pity her daughter is nothing like her.
Eunuch can only coax the emperor " Your majesty, refrain from angering oneself"
(Thud!) With the inner energy in his palm the emperor broke the long table and the delicacies were scattered in floor
All the members of the royal family hastily stand and kneel in front of the emperor, everyone is trembling in fear while cursing the source of the misfortune.
While everyone is kneeling , a voice of a delicate woman can be heard " ahhh! "
The woman disgustinly point the 3rd princess " 3rd princess there are some stain at the back of your robe, 3rd princess is known to be beloved by the emperor and like to play, but even a child know what is propriety, a grown up woman who can't hold her own bowel is truly a slap in our imperial line " the woman who spoke is the blood related sister of the emperor, Grand Princess Xu.
" Imperial brother rarely conduct an intimate family banquet but a spoiled princess dare to make a scene?, " her matured voice is full of ridicule.
Yan yao yao face became paler, she doesn't have the time to rebuke the grand princess and another loud noise with unpleasant smell suddenly came from her back. She tightly grip her mothers robe, seeking for a protection.
" Presumptuous!" zhen must have really overlook your attitude, being spoiled all this time! This is a formal family banquet, not your own palace! What do you take this emperor as?!" Emperor eyes reddened for irritation and anger. This girl cause his 2nd son to leave the palace and now shes adding an oil to the fire.
" hand this decree!, Princess Yao action this time truly open the eyes of zhen, if zhen own descendants no longer regards zhen as their sky, what about the minds in the other relatives?"
The other members starting to tremble upon listening from the words coming from the emperor, they can't help but to shift their hostility to the foolish 3rd princess.
" all the fu from the royal family must be under the supervision of zhen for 3 months, zhen must have been too kind that made the other forgot their own identity. 3rd princess will be living at the bamboo pavilion with the personal appointed mama of Eunuch Wei that would surely teach her the proper ETIQUETTE "
Eunuch Wei calmly write all the information needed for the imperial decree while the other royalties could only silently endure their rage.
Princess Yan yao yao desperately stood and intended to plead with her father, but she was cruelly pulled by the royal guards while covering their nose. Her grieving gaze was instantly greeted by a cold and sinister gaze. The one she looking is not her doting father but the cold hearted emperor.
Shu Gufei kneel in front of the emperor, " your majesty, Yao-er is only a child and still muddleheaded, your majesty have seen how Yao-er grow up, there must be something wrong with her body. Kindly invite the imperial physician, your majesty" with her soft voice and docile face made every man inside the hall pity her but jealous from women.
Yan Yao Yao immediately cried, " father emperor seek justice from this princess, earlier there is nothing wrong with this princess stomach , but suddenly this princess cannot control the smell and liquid that came out from my body ".
The grand princess mockingy look at this pair of mother and daughter in front of her. " shu gufei, the 3rd princess is still considered a child in your eyes? But may this grand princess remind you that every member of the royal family must be taught strictly for they carry the face of the imperial line. After the 100 days, the infant must be separated from the mother in order for them to grow up PROPERLY WITH ETIQUETTE expected for the royalty however, you pitifully ask for your daughter to be raised by you that made my benevolent brother to agree. " her voice full of ridicule. Her sharp eyes slowly turn to this idiotic princess " 3rd princess must think that all the people present in the banquet is a fool. I have seen you didn't take any food from the table nor any of us have a sick stomach. You can only blame the people in your palace, and not randomly spit words "
"ENOUGH" zhen no longer have the appetite to continue this argument, Shu Gufei had really cross the line, retrieve the phoenix seal from her and temporarily give the power to Lou Gufei."
Shu gufei, cannot handle the shock and instantly tried to catch up to his husband but rudely stop by Eunuch Wei " imperial concubine must follow what the heaven decide and reflect, this servant will visit your palace to retrieve the phoenix seal."
Shu Gufei can only weakly fall, that feeling when you are in heaven but in a second you are ruthlessly fell in hell.
Rui Wangye, gently help her mother to stand up but only to be rejected.
" I can stand on my own " shu gufei coldly answer her son and arrogantly strode to her palace without even taking a glance at her unconscious daughter.
Rui wangye can only put his mask and smiled to the other royalties like nothing had happened.
Without the host, all the members grudgingly left the hall, they can only clean up their fu before the emperor can find something suspicious.
The grand princess calmly look at 4th prince " how pity to born from that woman, your insight is wide and broad making you able to hide what truly lies in your heart , are you not getting tired of it?"
"Grand princess may have a safe trip " Rui wangye warmly said.
Princess Xu elegantly left with her maids ignoring his sarcastic words, while the smile from Rui Wangye became colder.
" what a father, to use the fault of his own blood to settle scores from the royal members who are trying to rebel. Not even bother to look for a physician to seek for truth but to ignore in order to protect someone. And having a revenge for his beloved son who was offended by his sister " Rui wangye chuckle " being born wrap in golden silk is unfortunate than to be born with an ordinary cloth."
He silently looking at the full moon, no one knows what he is thinking but a cold glint pass his dull eyes.
------
No one would expect that the royal banquet for that night was effortlessly ruined by a single person whom is currently comfortably laying inside of the Duan Wangfu carriage.
Yan Hong Tian, silently looking at her carefree self. Widely different from that pitiful woman who is crying in grievance awhile ago.
He loathed the most, are the women who love to act and scheme behind the doors to achieve their goals however, the woman in front of him is the only exemption.
She likes to act like a rabbit while hiding her tiger fangs, her tears cannot decrease her elegance, her poisonous tounge can kill you without shedding a blood and above all, she can turn the table in her favor.
She can be the death of him, but he can only helplessly act with her and support her without hesitation.
Her childish act brings entertainment in his dull life ...
BUT!
"This should not be allowed, she already reach my bottom line. He cannot let an unknown woman affect his long time plan" Yan Hong Tian gentle gaze instantly replaced by his known cold and domineering eyes.
Su qian Meng many years of training under the organization made her feel the changes in the man moods. One minute he is agreeable then after he became a ferocious beast waiting for his prey to slaughter.
Su qian Meng slowly open her eyes with a sneer in her beautiful cherry lips. She must be mad for believing that this man could be her support and pillar to lead a good and satisfying life.
"Wangye, if bengong have done something that is unsightly, please let bengong be enlightened.Wangye's mask cannot cover your killing intent from your gaze " she bravely look at him.
Yan Hong Tian lightly touch his mask and smiled, " That's true, this prince had always been covering my true self for a long time and only a few people can see it, while some are buried 6 feet under the soil.Which one are you? The few people are my close confidant while the other are people whose ignorant and only a lifetime silence can await them. "
Su qian meng expressionlessly look at him, there was no fear. She just shrugged her shoulder while shifting her gaze at the curtain. " No one, this wangfei is aware of her status, it is not my fault that heaven grant me the ability to see beyond your mask or maybe you still need to improve your mascaraed " her voice is full of sarcastic.
"Do you wish to see what beneath this mask?" Yan Hong Tian suddenly ask.
Su qian meng indifferently shift her attention towards the domineering man sitting in front of her, flashing her sweetest smile," Unfortunately I must decline, after all I still cherish my life."
" Are you that afraid to die?" He coldly ask.
"Whose not afraid to die? Death is the end, when you die it is the conclusion of everything.However, there is more scarier than death."
" Truth is scarier than death, when you wake up and realize that everything you live for is a sham.No longer have the courage to believe in anything." Her dark eyes is calm while staring at him but her voice betray her inner feelings. Yan Hong Tian starting to doubt, what is the true identity of the woman in front of him. Her words reflect the things she experience and no lady that is sheltered inside of their home can give off that aura.
After that serious exchange of thoughts, no more words were utter between them. The woman who silently looking outside while the man is looking at her visage.
Their carriage suddenly stop, " We arrive your highness."
Su qian meng step down after him, but astonish to see the man patiently waiting for her.
" Already fell for me? " Yan Hong Tian playfully ask her while offering his hand to support her.
She shamelessly held his palm and bashfully answer him " qie already fell a long time ago, what a shame that only this moment wangye understand qie affection. "
All the servants who were lining to welcome their masters can shyly buried their blushing face. They didn't hear anything! Who said their wangye is cold bloodied! He is much romantic than any poet in kingdom!
Duan Wangye gently held her soft palm, " it is not a shame my love, we have a lifetime to understand each other affection ".
Su qian meng can't help to trip her step upon having a goose bump from the corny words of this man. But luckily there are a strong arms and a warm chest that catch her.
She immediately fix herself and give a distance between them, " may wangye forgive qie ". Her bashful face greatly contrast her indifferent voice.
Yan Hong Tian truly like seeing her normal face not her usual mask,he can't help but to slowly change even his own principle " what to forgive? You are Duan Wangfei and my wife, your husband is expected to support you... in every circumstances. You have the Duan Wangfu at your back. "
" Serve Wangfei well " he said while looking at the servants.
Su qian meng can only look at his back while walking to the main hall, his every step is full of authority yet he said those sweet nauseating words in front of this people.
She truly can't read this man, he was like a king yama inside of the carriage then suddenly became a doting husband. She tilt her head with a confuse expression asking herself does he have a bipolar or a split personality????..
