MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 17: Tian Liam

PART 123 – THE PLAN TO RESCUE “HIM”_2

-Wait, and does that ritual have any relation to us? – Mr. Hu asked.

-Well, the main point is I think that we had rescued the FAKE Tian Liam. – Hou Lei continued.

-The fake Third Prince? – Mr. Hu surprised. – You mean that someone carried out that ritual to be like the Third Prince and he waited there for us to rescue instead of our Prince.

-Yup, you’re very smart. – Miang Xiang praised Mr. Hu. – He wants to copy the Third Prince for replacing him, having all the things of him.

-Do you have any idea about that guy? – Mr. Hu continued.

-There is only one having the ability to do that, Er Wang – Ziam Jun. – Hou Lei said.

-Ziam Jun, this name is very familiar. – Mr. Hu wondered. – Is that the guy has a fabric store where Tian Liam used to get there several times?

-That is right. – Tian Liang said. – That was the reason why Tian Liam was disappeared around that fabric store and also, we have not met Ziam Jun for these days!


-Because he has been busy with playing Tian Liam’s role. – Lei Hwa said. – And that’s also the idea that we could not find any trace of Ziam Jun from the time Tian Liam came back from the Er tribe.

-Oh, I remember something. – Miang Xiang said. – When we went to the Er village to rescue Tian Liam, I saw something like traces of a ritual. However, I did not know about this kind of ritual, so I could not recognize what exactly the ritual was.

-So that, Er Wang had planned very carefully, just copying Tian Liam right before we got there. – Hou Lei said. – Because this is a very big ritual, so it took time for him to prepare and carry out.

-If all of these are true, we need to rescue the real Third Prince as soon as possible. – Mr. Hu wondered. – He is still at the Er village, right?

-Yup. – Hou Lei answered. – However, Mr. Hu, please calm down. We need to reveal the fake one’s identity first and capture him before going there to help Tian Liam.

-We just need to capture him, that is all. – Mr. Hu said.

-It’s not easy like that. – Tian Liang replied. – He knows all the things Tian Liam knows, so he can easily fool the Emperor and the Queen. Moreover, if we do that without a plan, he can blame us for bothering him and the royal family.

-So what should we do now? I am very worried about the Third Prince’s status. – Mr. Hu said.

-All of us here worry about him, Mr. Hu. – Miang Xiang comforted him. – But we’re here now to have a good plan to help the Prince.


-Okay, it’s not complicated much. – Hou Lei took out the things in her bag. – I have here a list of herbs that we need to break the ritual’s effect on Er Wang’s body. Miss Miang Xiang and mom, please help me to find and get these herbs. In the ingredients to prepare the medicine, there is a special thing, five blood drops of the fake one. I will find a way to get it, you two will find the other herbs, when I have the blood, I’ll give to Tian Liang. He will get here and give you the blood. You two should prepare well for the medicine, and when you receive the blood, make the medicine immediately. After that, Tian Liang will bring medicine to me. I will have my own way to make him reveal his own self in front of the people. Mr. Hu and Tian Liang, you know all about the secret, but I want you two to treat the fake Tian Liam as usual, do not let him have any doubts about that. Besides, you two help me to prepare the soldiers for our next step to rescue the real Tian Liam. The Er people will not be trapped into our previous plan once more time, so Miss Miang’s drug will not affect them like it used to. Miss Miang Xiang, I have here a list of herbs to prepare a drug, this drug can lower the strength of the Er people. We will need it to get into the Er village.

-Okay, we know what we should do. – Mr. Hu and Tian Liang said.

-I and Miang Xiang will prepare the medicine and the drug well. – Lei Hwa said. – Hou Lei, can I talk with you privately?

She stood up and got out of the room with her mother.

-Is that you fell in love with Tian Liam? – Lei Hwa asked.

-I… Yup, mother. I cannot resist the kind-hearted actions of him surrounding me. – She replied.

-Well, I do not prohibit you from loving him, but you should know that you two will not have a good result. After all, he cannot be with you.

-I know that, but I think that it’s worth trying once in a lifetime, a true love.

-Is it true love when he knows your real identity?

-I do not know, but I just … feel the presence of the emotions. I cannot care much about the future. Maybe it will be many miserable things between us.

-Okay, it’s up to you, but be careful with this love, you may get many pains in the future.

Lei Hwa and Miang Xiang got the two lists of herbs, Miang Xiang came to many medicine stores in the royal city to find the herbs. For some special ones, Lei Hwa got onto the mountain near the city to find them. It took them more than a day to find all the herbs needed. They met back at the motel of Miang Xiang, and from this time, Miang Xiang suggested that Lei Hwa should stay at her motel for easier for both Lei Hwa and Hou Lei to meet each other.

They did as Hou Lei had recommended, they prepared the drug to fight with the Er people first while waiting for the blood of Er Wang from Hou Lei. Miang Xiang and Lei Hwa spent much of their magic to get the drug prepared faster. They also prepared some poison vials to fight with the Er people because they knew that those people were not easy to fight with.

About Tian Liang and Mr. Hu, they chose the best soldiers together, as Hou Lei described to them, Er people had very strong physical strength, so they could not be beaten like normal people. The soldiers had to be good at martial arts and knew well about fighting skills.

At Hou Lei’s side, she thought a lot to find a way to get the blood of Er Wang. Finally, she found an ideal plan, she cooked a very delicious dinner and waited for him to come back from his works of the government. He was surprised when seeing her sitting in his room with a warm meal next to her. He walked into the room and looked at her.

-Did you cook for me? – He asked.

-Well, we’ve not had a good dinner from the time you were rescued from the Er tribe. I think that we should have some husband and wife’s time and space. – She replied.

-And you are not angry with me anymore.

-It’s up to your behavior. Now, wash your hands and get here with me.

Tian Liam washed his hand with the water she had prepared for him. He did not notice that she had put some special herbs into the water making his blood spread into his fingers much. He smiled at her and sat down on the chair opposite her.

-Wow, the food looks so delicious. – He surprised.

-It should be. – She replied and put some food into his bowl.

-Well. – He put some into his mouth and closed his eyes. – Feel like I’m in heaven when tasting your delicious food.


-Get some tea. – She poured some tea for him and gave him a cup of tea.

After some minutes, she brought up her bowl, and suddenly, she dropped the bowl on the ground. The bowl was broken, Tian Liam got down to pick the broken pieces of the bowl.

MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 17: Tian Liam
PART 122 – THE PLAN TO RESCUE “HIM”
Tian Liam got into the room and put the tray of food in front of her face, on the table next to her. He looked at her and knew that she was thinking something. He gently touched on her shoulder.
-Hou Lei, what are you thinking about?
-Oh, nothing. – She returned to the present, she needed to act well in front of him, if she wanted to make a plan to rescue her real husband.
-I thought that you’re not having your dinner yet. I bring it here for you.
-Thank you!
She looked at him, now the way he was looking at her was copied exactly the style of Tian Liam. The way he put food into her bowl was also the same. If he did this from the time they rescued him from the Er tribe, maybe, no one could know the difference. She shook her head a bit and picked up her chopsticks and put food into her mouth. She thought that he wanted to get back her belief, so that, he would not do any stupid thing with the food.

He put down his chopsticks and looked at her. She felt a little bit strange, could the ritual even copy the charm of the real one to other people to the fake one? She could feel her heart beating a little bit fast. She tried to get her mind clear about the one in front of her face, he was not her husband, she could not fall for him.
-Why don’t you eat? – She asked.
-Well, looking at you while eating is very exciting. – He answered with a smile.
-Or you put something to the food and have the…
-Please! – He cut her sentence. – I said that I will not do any stupid thing again.
-Okay, so eat with me, or someone will see and say that I treat you badly.
-I understand. – He picked up the chopsticks again.
After the meal, he brought the tray of dirty dishes out of her room. Before he walked out of the room, he turned back and smiled with her.
-Goodnight, my cutie wife!
He even copied that sentence of Tian Liam, she really thought that if she did not read the Wu magical book, she would think that he was the real Tian Liam. She closed the door and got on her bed, she still thought about the information in the Wu magical book. Was all the information right? And did the book really want to help her? Or it would lead her to some more mistakes? What if the guess of her was wrong, and the one she had just met was her real husband? There were many things dancing around her mind.
The next morning came. She got up early and prepared things to get out of the palace to meet Miang Xiang and her mother. After greeting the Queen, she came back to her room and saw Tian Liam was there with a warm breakfast for her.
-Tian Liam, sorry, I’ve had my breakfast! – She said.
-Why do you have your breakfast so early? – He wondered. – Do you want to go somewhere?
-Yup, she will go out of the palace today! – Tian Liang appeared.
-For what? Why doesn’t anyone tell me about this? – He continued. – I should be informed that my wife will go to where and with whom.
-And now you know. – Tian Liang answered. – Father wants me, the Soldier General and Hou Lei to go to check some motels in the royal city. He wanted you to go with us also, but you have some important works in the government today. Don’t worry, I will return your wife completely the same.

-Okay, if it is the command of our father, I don’t have any opinion. – He said.
-Have you prepared, Hou Lei? – Tian Liang turned to her.
-Oh, yes, I have finished before going to greet the Queen. – She replied.
She walked into the room and took her bag, checked everything inside including the list of herbs she needed before walking back to Tian Liang’s place.
-Do not worry, I’ll be back soon. – She said to Tian Liam.
-We will go first, brother! – Tian Liang said goodbye to him.
They left him alone in the room with the food. He looked at the breakfast he spent a lot of time to get up early and ask the chef to cook following his ideas. She did not even taste them for a little one. He brought back the tray of food to the kitchen and walked straight to his work.
Tian Liang, Hou Lei, and the General got into a horse wagon and they led to the motel of Miang Xiang. After a while, they stopped in front of the entrance of the motel. Tian Liang helped Hou Lei to get down of the wagon. Miang Xiang was waiting for them from the very early. Tian Liang had commanded his sentry to inform her about their visit today, and also asked her to invite Lei Hwa to join them for discussing.
-My Prince, My Princess! – Miang Xiang greeted them. – You’re here earlier than I expected.
-Thank you for your good preparation, Miss Miang Xiang. – Tian Liang said.
-Follow me, there is someone waiting for you from last night. She was too excited about this meeting. – Miang Xiang led them to the upstairs room.
Miang Xiang opened the door and Hou Lei saw Lei Hwa was sitting on a chair next to the large table waiting for her. She ran to hug her mother.
-Mother, I missed you so much! – She said with happiness.
-I know that. – Lei Hwa rubbed her hair and also hugged her.
-So you are… the real mother of Hou Lei? – Mr. Hu asked.
-Well, that is a very long story, I will tell you at a suitable time. – Tian Liang replied to him. – However, let’s get a small introduction. This is Miss Lei Hwa, Hou Lei’s mother. Miss Lei Hwa, this is Mr. Hu, the Soldier General of Main Land. He is one of the most well-trusted bureaucrats of me and Tian Liam, so you can believe in him, just like Hou Lei did.
-Nice to see you, Mr. Hu. – Lei Hwa said.
-It’s nice to see you, too, Miss Lei Hwa. – Mr. Hu said.
-Now, let’s get your place and we need to focus on our discussion fast. – Miang Xiang said. – I have prepared some biscuits and tea for you.
They sat around the large round table.
-Princess Hou Lei, please let us know what you got. – Miang Xiang said to her.
-Well, at first, Mr. Hu and Tian Liang do not know about the books, so I will ignore them for not taking time in explanation. The main point here for our meeting is I have read about a kind of magical ritual, called “the perfect shapeshift”. This ritual lets someone become a totally same duplicate of another one, and he can copy all things from the original one, including figure, face, voice, memory, even characteristics. – She said.
-Wait a minute! – Miang Xiang surprised. – Even characteristics? This is the first time I have heard about something like that. Usually, the magic only helps to copy one of the things you have just listed. This ritual must be a very big one to do that.
-Yup, the ritual is carried out by the Wu magical priests with strong magical power. And it takes a lot of energy to chant the spell. – She continued.

MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 17: Tian Liam
PART 121 – THE STRANGE BEHAVIOR OF TIAN LIAM_4
To prove that her thought was right, Hou Lei decided to carry out a ritual to find where the real Tian Liam was now, like the ritual she used to find Ziam Jun some days ago. After closed the door carefully, she chanted a spell to lock all the doors of her room to prevent anyone from wanting to get into the room while she did her ritual.
She opened the book of Hou Ma tribe and stopped at a page with the ritual she needed. She opened a drawer of a cabinet next to the window, she got some herbs in there.  She put the herbs into a circle and dropped some powder onto the herbs. She started to chant a spell.

The herbs flew around her after she had chanted a spell and made some moves. She raised her hands up and a green light appeared from her hands. She moves her hand around the space in front of her face and something looks like a mirror appeared.
“Let me know that where is Wang Tian Liam now!”, she commanded to the mirror. The mirror turned its surface on with many colors and it showed a dark place where seemed to be a prison. Hou Lei looked closer to the place and she recognized it was the prison of the Er tribe. She used to see the place when Er Wang took her to the village. She tried to put more power into the mirror to define if Tian Liam was really there. But something happened and the mirror was broken down in front of her eyes before she could see more things.
-Maybe that the Er tribe used magic to prevent me from seeing clearer about Tian Liam. – She said to herself. – Anyway, I can definitely assure that the real Tian Liam is not the one being here with me, I need to discuss more with mother and Miang Xiang to rescue him.
She touched on her heart and felt her heartbeats, “I think that I really love him now. How can I resist this love and continue my mission? Is that in the end, he will get a huge angry with me and everything between us will be broken? There will be nothing for an evil princess like me, right? Is there still a Prince for an evil princess?”.
She paused some minutes and there was a knock on the door. She chanted a spell and all the herbs on the ground disappeared, the locking spell on the door also lost its effect. She stood up and walked to open the door.
-I just want to check if you’re okay! – Tian Liang looked at her when she opened the door.
-I’m okay, do you want to get in? – She asked.
-Of course, I want, but I think it isn’t a should-do now.
-Just get in, I have something want to say with you!
-Okay, but just let the door open, or people will talk about this behind our back.
-I know that, you’re worrying for me.
-So is there any problem?
-We have an enormous problem here, Tian Liang.
-You look very serious, tell me what is it and what I can help.
-Well, I think that the “Tian Liam” we rescued in the Er tribe a week ago is not the real one.
-Tian Liam? The real one? Do you mean that Tian Liam now with us is the fake one?

-Yup, I’m not definitely sure how this could happen, but you know… - She paused.
-Just continue, you know that you can believe in me.
-I’ve just carried out a spell to determine the place where Tian Liam is now, and it led me to a prison in the village of Er tribe.
-So that, Tian Liam is still captured in the village, and we rescued the fake one???
-I’m afraid that’s true.
-But how? How can that one be the fake Tian Liam? We even don’t recognize anything strange much.
-All of us do recognize, but we don’t think that he is the fake one.
-And we need to rescue the real one as soon as possible.
-I don’t think “Tian Liam” here lets us do that. We need to reveal his identity first.
-Do you have any idea about that one?
-Have you ever heard about Er Wang?
-Er Wang? The leader of the Er tribe? – Tian Liang surprised. – How can he know the strong magic like that? And as I know, the Er people don’t know about magic.
-He does not know, they do not know, that does not mean they cannot get help from others who know and have strong magical ability.
-I think that only the Hou Ma tribe knows about magic?
-Nope, there are many others, the ancient priests, the witches, and especially, the Wu magical priests. They may be stronger than Hou Ma people.
-If as you say, the magic Er Wang now using must be a very strong spell.
-Yup, more than a spell, that was a ritual, it let someone could copy the face, figure, everything from inside to outside, including the memory and some characteristics of another one.
-He can copy even the memory? Therefore, he could fool us easily without any doubt from the family member of the real one.
-Yup, I also know how we can reveal his real face but I need supports from my mother and Miss Miang Xiang… Can you…?
-I understand, I’ll help you to get out there with them. But is tomorrow okay?
-It’s good, we need to take action as soon as possible, before some bad things happen to the real Tian Liam. We should do it privately, avoid the doubts from the fake Tian Liam.
-I know that, you can prepare something you need and we will go to the motel of Miang Xiang tomorrow afternoon.
That evening, when Hou Lei was tidying her room and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook some food for her and Tian Liang, Tian Liam walked to her room with a tray of food on his hand. He stopped at the door and knocked on. He was wearing the black clothes pairing with the dress the real Tian Liam had made for her from the first time they bought fabric from Er Wang’s store. She looked at him and tried to hide her feelings.
-Can I get in? – He asked gently.

-Well, this room is in your North Liam palace, how can I prevent you from getting in? – She said with no emotion on her face.
Please! – She said with a stronger voice. – Do not ever remind that to me again!
-I’m so sorry, I promise that… oh, I forgot that you do not believe in promises. I definitely do not do that again. Please give me another chance!
-I do not get angry with you, but…
She paused for a while, he even could copy the style of Tian Liam when talking to her. The gentle voice of him when he made “cat eyes” to her was even the same. This ritual was a really big one, she had never seen anything like this in her life. She looked at him, if she did not love the real Tian Liam, he could easily fool her as he did with Tian Liang and others.

C17 - PART 120 – THE STRANGE BEHAVIOR OF TIAN LIAM_3

Please read the DISCLAIMER before reading the story.

MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 17: Tian Liam
PART 120 – THE STRANGE BEHAVIOR OF TIAN LIAM_3
The Queen stayed with Hou Lei and Tian Liang for having dinner with them. She could see that during the meal, Tian Liang always got his eyesight to Hou Lei. She could also feel that the relationship between them was not simple. Although Tian Liang was not her own son, she always treated him well. Because of the mistake in the past, making his mother died, she was still regretting until now. However, she knew that no one, especially Tian Liang, could understand what she was feeling and he might never forgive her for what she had done. She could only love him as her son, but let him with Hou Lei was not something she could accept, because she, on the other hand, always wanted the best for her only true son, Tian Liam.
After having dinner in Hou Lei’s room, the Queen walked back to her room. Tian Liang tidied the room for her and brought the tray of dishes back to the kitchen. He returned with a towel and a basin of warm water, he helped her clean her face and her hands before going to bed. He sat down on a chair next to the bed and waited for her till the time he assured that she got a deep sleep. He walked out of the room and closed the door lightly. Then he got into the room of the maid next to Hou Lei’s room and slept in there as he said with her in the morning.
The next day came, and Tian Liang got up very early, he asked the chefs to prepare the breakfast for her and brought a basin of water put on the table. Everything was ready and waiting for her to wake up. She was surprised by what he did for her. And she knew that he truly wanted to do that, because he had let her know about his true identity. But now, she was more confused with the things happening around her. She loved Tian Liam and Tian Liang also loved her from the teenage period till now. Everything became complex when she knew that her brother-in-law was her first love.
When Tian Liang was having breakfast with Hou Lei, Tian Liam walked to her room and saw the scene. He planned to avoid seeing her, but he thought that he should do something before losing her to his own brother’s hands.
-Hou Lei, can I talk to you for a while? – Tian Liam got into the room.
-Oh, I’ve just finished my breakfast. – She replied. – Tian Liang, can…
-I understand. – Tian Liang stood up. – I have some works to do in the government today. You two have plenty of time to talk with each other.
He said and tidied the dishes on the table. He brought the tray of dishes and walked out of the room. He stopped right next to Tian Liang and said to his ear.

“You better take care of your wife well, Mother was not happy to see what happened yesterday. And you should also be a good Tian Liam as you used to. If I and mother know you do something bad to Hou Lei, you will know the results.”
When Tian Liang walked out of the room, Tian Liam closed the door carefully before sitting down on a chair next to her. She avoided his look, he held her hands and rubbed gently.
-I’m sorry about what happened yesterday. – He said.

-I forgot that, what are you talking about? – She wondered.
-I… I… however, sorry, I promise that I will never do that again without your permission.
-I said I don’t want to remember.
-Okay, okay, I won’t remind you about that anymore.
-That’s the reason you’re here this morning?
-Nope, I want to check if you’re okay before going to work. I know that I was not good at the previous days. I will change, and be your good husband.
-Well, is that you forgot about my words?
-Your words? Am I saying anything wrong?
-Never mind. – She stood up and took her hand back from his hands. – You should go to work, or you will be late for the important works.
-Okay, I’ll go first, take care of your self.
He walked out of the room. She sat back to the chair and looked at his figure fading behind the entrance to her room. She still felt that there was something not right with him, but she could not determine what it was. She walked to the garden next to her room and watering the flowers. When she came back, she saw Wu's magical book was on her table.

“The Wu magical book, it’s you again, what is your purpose to appear this time?”, she recognized the book and walked closer to the table. Suddenly, the book opened many pages by itself, Hou Lei raised her hand to cover her eyes thinking that the book would make something harm to her like the previous times. However, nothing happened, the book stopped at a page. She walked closer and took the book on and read the information on the page.
“The perfect shape-shift…”, the page’s title.
“What is this about? Looking very strange!”, she wondered and continued reading.
“The perfect shape-shift is a kind of powerful magic, carried out with a ritual by many Wu priests who have strong magic and good knowledge about the magical world. The ritual must be carried out with the one who wants to copy and the one who is copied. The magic ritual will help to transfer the figure from inside to outside from the original one to his duplicate. Moreover, if the priests are strong enough, they can help the duplicate to have the memory and some characteristics of the original. This is a kind of big ritual and it should be carried out under a suitable time calculated by the moving of the moon and stars. The ones who take part in the ritual will somehow pay for their bad actions. From the past till now, rarely rituals are successful with the memory copied.”
-Is that this book is aiming to something about Tian Liam? The perfect copy? – She got confused about the information. – I should read all the information.
She continued to read the book. “There are some kinds of treats to help reveal if someone is using this ritual to copy another’s face to take over their life, their love, or their property. The most common one is using the magical mirror. To make this mirror, chanting this spell to a mirror and put some magic in it. The magical effect will last for 4 hours and cannot be reused in the same mirror or the same person who uses the spell for three days.”
-Look like it’s worth a try. – She said to herself. – But is there something to help to break the ritual and reveal the identity of the copycat?
She focused on the page again. “There is the only way to break the spell of the ritual. That is using the more powerful spell from some priests to break down the previous one on the one getting the perfect shapeshift. The spell needs to be carried out into a medicine tablet made by the herbs listed on the next page. And there should be a lot of magic put into the medicine. Then, you should put the medicine into the food of that one. When he takes the medicine, his perfect shapeshift shield will be broken and his true identity will be revealed easily.”
She read the list of herbs and took notes into a paper. She closed the book and not out of her prediction, the book disappeared immediately. She thought that maybe Er Wang had taken place the ritual to be the present “Tian Liam”. That was the reason why she could not find the signal of Er Wang some night before. It was a suitable explanation that at that time, Er Wang was not Er Wang anymore, he was Tian Liam, so that, her magic could not reach his place. But her magic was not enough to make something like the “magical mirror” as the book mentioned, the power of the magical shield in the palace was somehow very strong after the day she had carried out her big ritual. She needed help from her mother and Miang Xiang. She should be in a hurry, because if Er Wang was now replacing Tian Liam, where was the real Tian Liam? He might be still kidnapped in the village of the Er tribe and she could not imagine what was happening to him now. She took the list of medicine with her and thought about a reason to get out of the palace and meet Miang Xiang.

MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 17: Tian Liam
PART 119 – THE STRANGE BEHAVIOR OF TIAN LIAM_2
-However, I think that you should take a rest now. – Tian Liang said.
-But I’m scared that he will come back. – Hou Lei laid down on her bed.
-Don’t worry, I’ll be here with you till the time Tian Liam is back to his normal behavior.
-It’s not a good idea, we…
-I know that, I’ll be here till the night and I will sleep in the maid’s room while Ah Jiang gets to stay in the room with other maids.
-That’s not good for you, you’re a Prince.
-Well, the title is not important to me, I don’t care what people say, I just want to be sure that you’re safe. I will explain to the Queen about this.
-Thank you, nice to see you again, Xiao Liang!
-Nice to know that you still remember me, Ah Lei!
He got a book out to read while watching her sleep. He wondered where Tian Liam was now, he also had a little bit worry about his brother, his behavior had changed much from the time he returned from the Er tribe. He could sense that something was wrong, however, he could not define what exactly the thing was.
At that time, Tian Liam was angry with both Hou Lei and Tian Liang. He rode a horse out of the palace, he went nowhere specifically. However, after a while, he stopped in front of the building of the Minister. He did not know why he got there. Although nothing, in particular, said that he would give a visit there, he still got down off the horse and walked into the building. Liu Han was talking with her maids and suddenly saw him, she yelled in happiness.

-Tian Liam!!! – She ran to his place.
-Liu Han… - He did not know what to say with her.
-I know that, you will miss me, you want to see me, right?
-Yup, a little bit. – He nodded.
-Come here with me! – She pulled him with her to the table.
-What are you doing?
-I want to ask my maids to go to the store of Ziam Jun to buy some new fabric rolls for me. Although I can’t get out of my home, I should still have beautiful dresses, right?
-That’s right, but Ziam Jun’s store is now closed.
-Why? Why does he close the store? His store seems to be the most special fabric store in the royal city. – Liu Han said with a sad voice.
-I heard that he has something to do. He needs to leave the royal city for several days.
-Oh, that’s so sad. I can’t have new clothes now. However, you’re here with me now, get in my room and we will talk more.
Liu Han led Tian Liam to her room and asked the maids to prepare some food and a teapot for them. She closed the door carefully after receiving the food and tea.
-I miss you so much, Tian Liam.
-I know that. – He said and tried to ignore her eyes on him.
-Now, I can’t believe that, you actively come here to meet me.
-I want to see that if your life is still okay.

-Without you, the color of my life is only grey.
-Am I too important to you like that?
-Of course, you’re my soulmate from childhood, how can anyone replace you in my heart? If Hou Lei didn’t appear, we maybe have a better result.
-I don’t know, it’s fate to everything happening.
-I love you, Tian Liam. – She suddenly kissed on his lips.
-Liu Han, that’s not a…
She continued kissing him passionately, and she led him to her bed, they slowly laid down on the bed. He gently accepted her kiss and followed her moves…
The evening came, and they finished their “make out”. She put on her clothes back.
-Do you want to have dinner with me? – She asked.
-I think I should go back to the palace, people will…
-I know, having doubts about you, and your beloved wife won’t be happy to know you were here with me instead of with her.
-Liu Han, I know that’s not fair to you, but…
-I understand, I’ll never let anyone know what happened today in my room, okay? We just talked to each other about our childhood and the memories we had together.
-Thank you for your understanding.
He got back on his horse and rode it to the palace. When he reached to Hou Lei’s room, he saw Tian Liang was still there with her. They were talking something to each other. He did not want to remind Hou Lei what had just happened this morning so he walked straight to his room.
The Queen finished her works with the Emperor and the bureaucrats, she walked to Hou Lei’s room to check if she was okay. When she reached the place, she also saw Tian Liang was there, in her room. He was bringing a tray of food to her.
-Tian Liang, I wondered where were you the whole today! – The Queen said.
-I was here with Hou Lei, I don’t know where Tian Liam was, he got out of the room from the morning and hasn’t returned yet. – Tian Liang replied.
-That boy, he makes me worried more and more these days. – The Queen shook her head. – How is Hou Lei now?
Her health is better, her wounds were all healed. – He replied and put the tray of food on the table. – But she is still weak, she can’t do heavy works and even can’t run or do something like that.

-I see, Tian Liam promised to take care of her well, and now, where is he?
-Maybe he has some works to do.
-And be kidnapped like that time? This boy… haizzz…
-He is mature, he can know what he should and shouldn’t do, don’t worry much.
-I know that his martial arts are very good, and I also agree that he is smart too, but he needs to know that there are many people always worried about his safety.
-My Queen, my Prince! – The maid of the Queen appeared. – The Third Prince has just returned to his room. He was now reading some books.
-Okay, I know, you can be back to your works. – The Queen said.
-Do you want to have dinner with Hou Lei? I’ll prepare for you. – Tian Liang said.
-It’s okay, I think that Tian Liam won’t meet me this time. – The Queen fetched a sigh.
