MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 4: The mystery in the royal city

PART 31 – THE PLAN OF THE CROWN PRINCE_4

At that night, in the Palace, Hou Lei was sitting in her room, she laid her face on her hands.

“Should I help Tian Liam to solve this problem? But those Er people might meet me at the Er village in the past, they could recognize me. They would let Er Wang know where I am now. And then, my plan will be destroyed when Er Wang comes here and discloses my true identity. Oh, no, I can’t let that happen. Another way, I think Tian Liam is smart enough to persuade them to come back to their place.”, she thought and then went to sleep.

Tian Liam prepared a speech to tell with the Er people, he hoped that this speech could let them recognize what was right and came back to their place. The night came, and he brought the wick rope and herbs beside his sword with him.

The winds slowly blew, the moonlight was weak but enough to see things on the way, Tian Liam walked and carefully watched around him. He passed through some road, no one still awoke. Then he met the Er people, they recognized him immediately:

-That’s the guy corrupting our works yesterday! – The biggest man said. – Catch him.

They ran fast to Tian Liam’s place. He ran also, but his speed could not compare to them. He took out his sword and fought with them. His sword was very sharp, however, he could not make them hurt. One of the men grabbed his sword without any wound.

-Catch you, little boy!

He tried to get his sword back and the man let over the sword, he fell down to the ground because that man was too strong. They all laughed for their winning. Tian Liam whistled to call his horse near that place. The horse ran fast to his place, as the Er people looked at the horse, he got on it fast and ran away. They ran after him:

-Don’t let him escape! – The biggest one said.

-You won’t be lucky as yesterday. Your injury had completely healed in one night, very impressive. – Another man said. – This time you will taste a stronger huh?

Tian Liam stopped at a part of the road with many big trees beside. He got down off the horse and hit it to go away. He then put down the herbs on the ground and connected it with the wick rope. He dropped the rope on the ground and walked to hide behind a big tree. The Er people came and he immediately burnt the rope with some rock. The fire got closer to the herbs and luckily, he calculated the time just right. When Er people got there, they looked at the herbs and the fire came, the pack of herbs explored and the gas got out to the air. They breathed the gas in and started to feel dizzy. Then they all fell down to the ground.

Tian Liam was happy that the herbs had their effect. He brought the Er people together and tied them with a big rope. He was waiting for them to wake up. After a while, they moved.

-Let us free! – The biggest one said.

-You are feeling not good, right? – He asked.

-Yup, I’m feeling very weak, brother! – One of them said.

-What drug did you get to us? – The biggest one said.

-Some herbs. – He answered. – Hope you like the smell!

-Of course. – The biggest one said. – We really like it!

And they started to move stronger, the rope was broken with the surprise of Tian Liam. They stood up and breathed heavily, prepared for another fight.

-What? You are not affected by the herbs.

-Little boy, it only made us sleep! Haha, who gave you those herbs?

He suddenly remembered that in the paper, Hou Lei only mentioned that the herbs could make them into a faint. He forgot that and now was in an extremely dangerous situation. He could not win them with only his strength. They ran to his place and started to fight him. A beautiful smell got across their place, the Er people stopped.

-You’re an idiot, Tian Liam! – One strange lady in violet dress with a face cover appeared.

-Who are you? – Tian Liam and the men both asked.

-It’s not important, I was here to help both of you! – She answered.

-You want to help him? – The biggest Er man said.

-Not only him, you people know about the extinct of the Hou Ma tribe, right?

-Yes, we know. But what’s the connection here?

-Do you want your Er tribe has the same result?

-You think Main Land people can kill us like they used to kill Hou Ma tribe? – The man laughed.

-Tian Liam can’t, one Main Land man can’t, some of them can’t, but thousands of them, dynamite, and poisons can. I assure you don’t want to taste the dynamite and the toxic water.

-So what do you want?

-Leave him alone, get out of this city and come back to your place.

-Do you know how hard we got there? And with your words, you want us to go? – He laughed.

-I give you a chance to decide, if you don’t, I assure you won’t image what will be your result.

-With a lady like you? – He laughed. – What do you think you can hurt us? Even the sword of him couldn’t do anything harmful to us. Or you want to treat us some good things?

-Okay, let’s see.

She brought out a vial, got some of the liquid inside on her hands and rubbed her hands together. The Er people ran to her place, the mysterious lady started to dance. Her dance was like a hypnotise, the men stopped and got dizzy. Tian Liam looked at them with surprise. Then the lady came closer to the men, rubbed her hand on their skin, with each touch the skin was turned into black and the man fell down on the ground. She then stopped when face to face with Tian Liam.

-My Prince, they are all dead! – She said.

-Huh? How can you? – He surprised.

-This is one of the most powerful poison, do you want to taste?

-Of course not. – He stepped backward.

-Well, I don’t want to harm you or anything, I just have a debt with someone, and I must help her on her journey. I do this not because of you or this country. Anyway, my Prince, you know that they are Er tribe people, but I hope you won’t say out this information. Your Father had a wrong decision when destroying the Hou Ma tribe, you are a kind-hearted Prince, I know you won’t want the Er tribe to have the same result. Promise me, just tell people that you kill them. I made the wounds just look like your sword stabbed on their body, so people will believe in you.

-But who you are? And who is the lady you mentioned?

-You don’t need to know much now, my Prince, at the right time, everything will be clear. You only need to live a good life and treat everyone well.

-I promise. – He nodded.

-My Prince, don’t touch their wound until it’s morning, or you will die like them! – She prepared to go.

-Wait, miss! – He called her. – Will we meet again?

-It’s up to fate, maybe we will meet in the very early day. – She went to the countryside direction.
