I am still in my courtyard when suddenly someone entered from the door."Your highness I"m sorry for the delay, I have bought the fruits that you have asked" I have shown a smile to her. she"s the only person who really care for me so it pains me if she acts differently.
"Thank you Zi Yan"
She quickly put it away to wash it and when she came back we share the grapes that has a very juicy taste that makes me feel delighted.
While we we"re eating Zi Yan suddenly stopped eating.
"What"s wrong Zi Yan? "
I can see the worry in his eyes I think she heard it too.
"My lady his majesty is being unfair to you, you"re also his child yet... "" I hurriedly stuff a grape to her mouth and look at my surroundings.
"Zi Yan you must not talk about the emperor like that if this reach his ears I don"t know what punishment he"ll give you" She feels wrong and cried.
"My lady I"m so sad for you I cannot bear to see you suffer" she said while crying wholeheartedly which makes me cry too.
"Zi Yan don"t be repulsive next time I still need you, you are the only one I can call a true family in this horrible life I had please don"t throw it." I cannot bear the tears and also cried and hug her.
"I understand your highness I"ll definitely live for your sake" she happily declared.
We we"re disturbed from our dramatic conversation by a eunuch ordered by the emperor.
"9th princess the King wishes your presence in the imperial hall" I think it is time to meet the father who neglected me.
Even now this is my first time in my 14 whole years coming out from that courtyard. While walking the design in the imperial palace caught my eye. It is much more luxurious than mine. I think this is how you show unfavorable I am to him to give me the wasted courtyard.
When there is a suddenly halt, I finally realize that we are in front of a enormous and gallant door. When the eunuch announce my presence the guards outside wait for my father"s response and when he said that I can come in, only then the guards let me.
When I entered I found a huge and majestic room with so many people in the sides while what really catches the attention are the two people that is seated in the farthest center.
Their red robes signifies their authority and power.
The woman in the side wore a very red robe with Phoenix embroidery while the the man in the center wore a very gallant red robe a golden embroidery of a mighty dragon.
He is my father.
Even if I don"t the right to go outside my courtyard I still have Zi Yan she taught me everything I know that"s why I think of her as a family.
"He Yanyu greets his majesty, may he alive a thousand years more"
I just casually said what I usually heard from Zi Yan and then bowed very low.
"You may rise" When I heard his order I sat up and look at him. When I saw the disgust and enmity in his eyes I immediately retract my gaze.
