Chapter t.i.tle: Somewhere, I"m lost (2)
Chapter no. 4
(Elizabeth"s POV)
Then I look around, trying to clarify things that are confusing to me.
Everything is very refreshing in my eyes, the luxurious room is decorated in blues and gold.
The the woman in front of me held my hand tightly as she prevented her tears from falling.
"Ze"er promise me that you will never climb trees again. You"ve made everyone worried sick, you did not wake up for thirty days and all of us thought it will be hopeless to wait for you to wake up. I"m so happy you"re awake now."
"Madame the master has arrived."
"En. Go and tell the master that his beloved daughter has gained consciousness."
"This servant excuses herself." the maidservant walked out of the room, while the others are standing on their posts waiting for instructions I a.s.sume. Everything felt oddly foreign to me. So I guess my soul has been sent somewhere thousands of years back. And the body I am occupying right now must have belonged to someone else. Then out of a sudden my head hurts so bad that I wailed in agony, as I grabbed a handful of my hair and tug it as if it will relieve the pain. With closed eyes I saw my mom, she was retelling a story to me before I went to bed, which she always do when I was only nine years old. Then I remember the girl in the story, and somehow everything resembled the memories from this body.
"I knew her."
This is the body of Qin Zetian, the third young miss of the Qin family. Daughter of the right prime minister and the youngest among her sisters. Her eldest sister is imperial concubine Qin Wei Li who lives in the palace as a favorable wife of the emperor. While the second eldest is Qin Rouyun is the official wife of the crown prince from a progressive neighboring kingdom.
It seems like in actual her father"s standing in court is really good. He is blessed with children marrying into the imperial family. And this house must be one of the wealthiest families in this kingdom. I must remember to study well so they won"t see any flaw on me, and since I"ve remembered clearly how she lived this life once. I also remembered that this body belonged to an unruly child who knew nothing but play.
Well then since the owner has died and I was given a new chance to live, I must remember to live well. I will live to the fullest and become the wealthiest woman in this era who will change the history, as I hope. I will not die from a fall. And I will never put myself as a bait to the wolves, never again.
"Ze"er you"ve made us so worried, you know how much we dote on you but do not expect me not to prohibit you from climbing up trees. A young lady needs not such dangerous hobbies, unless you"re learning martial arts."
"You will never do such things again, do you understand?"
