"I"ve never thought that I"ll be the first one to find you Li Yanyu."The words that the general told me is still spinning inside my mind. It"s really weird because it"s the first time I"ve met him. And why Li? I"m a He, so why does he called me on that name? And the first, one does mean that there are more people who wants to meet me? But why?
"Your highness do you still want some grapes"
I just nod at her, and she immediately presented me a pile of grapes which I started eating.
The carriage that I"m in is a big and luxurious one. I wonder how much does it worth. When we first enter this carriage Zi Yan was stupefied by the carriage but I immediately shaken away the thought from her.
"Your Highness I can"t believe that we"re riding a very luxurious carriage, my how I hope that the emperor of the Lou empire give my lady a proper respect and love."
I smiled at her and hold her hand.
"Zi Yan we can"t order people to give love and respect because it is earned so you don"t need to worry about me because even if the emperor of the Lou empire abandon me just like my father emperor I won"t be lonely because Zi Yan is right beside me."
When I look at her face I smile wholeheartedly when I saw the tears that is pouring from her eyes.
"Y... Your highness don"t worry no matter what I"ll always take your side and I won"t ever leave you" I don"t like this kind of conversation because it only makes me cry but still I love it because of the closure that we can get.
*Neigh*
When the Horse neighed the carriage immediately stop, and we didn"t take the momentum and Zi Yan and I immediately cast to the carriage floor, then after we feel the pain someone knocked from the carriage window.
"Your highness are you alright? " Someone which I think is a palace guard asked.
"We"re fine you don"t need to worry" I immediately got up and have tried to open the door but before I open it Zi Yan immediately stop me and her looks scared me.
Why does she looked like there is something wrong"s going to happen.
"Zi Yan w.. What"s wrong? " She hushed me, and she tried to open the window. When she opened it a person with wearing a palace guard"s uniform with a face that looks like it will bring menace.
But the thing that caught my attentions the surroundings outside, there is no one other than him. Where"s the general and the other palace guards.
"Tell me where"s everyone else?" I asked but I was taken aback when he suddenly attacked me and pulled me out of the carriage Zi Yan tried to pull me but her strength didn"t much with the stranger.
We we"re terrified when he suddenly bring out his weapon, and he immediately aims it to me.
I have close my eyes because of it and waited the sudden death that will become.
I tried to wait for it but it didn"t come and what I seen after I open my eyes had pierced through my deepest soul.
Zi Yan was one who was struck by the sword and the worst of it"s exactly where her heart is.
"My lady... You must run... " That"s the last word she said before she collapsed on the floor.
A Suivre...
