The visit
Shao-Chen
Just you wait, b@stard King!
Shao-Chen's maid
'Wh-what has gotten into her...?'
Shao-Chen
All right! Lin, I can call you that, right?
Shao-Chen's maid
Huh...? Yes! Of course!!
Shao-Chen
Then Lin, let's pay our dearest King a visit!
Shao-Chen's maid
Um... okay
Meanwhile, at the main hall -
King
My god! Those idiots ended up causing even more trouble for me!
King
I asked them to teach that ugly piece of meat some lesson, and they ended up killing her.
King
And not only that, they decided to float her in the river?
Can you believe it!!?
King's right hand man (Ji Wu)
They seemed to have caused a lot of trouble...
King
I know right! She was all bruised up when I was done with her. After those idiots took their turns, she was probably covered in blood
King
And they floated her!!
King
They could've told me to arrange something!
King
What if someone else discovers the body?
King
Rumors would spread like wildfire!
King's right hand man (Ji Wu)
Your lordship, should I go look for the body?
King
That's a pretty good.........
Before the King could finish his sentence, the door to the main hall bursts open
She looked like an angel. With a pure white dress, gently being lifted by the blowing wind, wrapping her body and her hair sparkling, she looked like an embodiment of holiness.
Shao-Chen
Surprised to see me still alive!? What's with the look?
Shao-Chen's maid
(followed Chen inside the hall)
(stands behind her)
King's right hand man (Ji Wu)
Whoa...
King's right hand man (Ji Wu)
'Who is this woman? Is she the same Queen I've known for all these years? But wait... the King said she died... those prisoners were asked to r@pe her, and they ended up killing her...but then who is she?'
King
I-Impossible!
'I definitely remember she was badly bruised when I left her! Where are the bruises? She's clean... I'm certain, makeup can't hide all that!'
Shao-Chen
(bursts into a hysterical laughter)
Shao-Chen
What are you surprised about?
Shao-Chen
It's me your highness
Shao-Chen's maid
(observes everything quietly)
Shao-Chen's maid
'What's with their reactions? And what does the Queen mean? Wait... was the King somehow involved in what happened to the Queen!!?'
Shao-Chen
Oh well, I just came to say hii
Shao-Chen
And convey a message to you
(points towards the King)
Shao-Chen
Good always beats the Bad!
Shao-Chen
You probably didn't understand, well, that's obvious
Shao-Chen
(walks towards the King)
King
W-What are you doing?
Shao-Chen
(smirks)
(closes the distance between them and traces her lips across the King's cheeks to reach his ear)
Shao-Chen
(whispers) You can't get rid of me that easily ~
King
(feels a shiver down his spine as he flinches)
King
(the air around him gets hotter, this was the first time he was seeing this side of his Queen)
Shao-Chen
(pulls back and smirks)
(in a sweet tone) I hope you remember that, my King ~
Shao-Chen's maid
Yes milady!
She turns back and starts walking towards the door again. But before leaving the room, she turns to look at the King's right hand man
And winks, after sending him a flying kiss
Shao-Chen
Will see you around too, Mr.
King's right hand man (Ji Wu)
'S-She winked? At me...?'
King
'The hell was that! All these years I've known her, she'd never spoken to me that way!'
King
'And she was supposed to be dead! Those prisoners definitely said... how is she still alive, and without the bruises?'
King
'That's the most seductive look I've ever seen on her...'
King
(grits teeth)
Damn it!
King's right hand man (Ji Wu)
'What in the world happened to the Queen's personality...?'
Shao-Chen
(Walking towards her palace)
Shao-Chen
I need to take back my position as the Queen to the throne before that other woman does something
Shao-Chen's maid
(understands that she is referring to the King's favorite concubine, Luo Ming, and starts quiet)
Shao-Chen's maid
(was actually worried about something else)
Shao-Chen's maid
Umm... Milady, can I ask a rather direct question?
Shao-Chen
Yes, the King was responsible for my injuries this morning
Shao-Chen's maid
(surprised)
Shao-Chen's maid
H-How did you know...?
But that aside!!
Shao-Chen's maid
The King!!
Did he really do that to you? Were you almost half-dead because of him? How could he!!?
Shao-Chen
'technically, I was dead. In both worlds'
Shao-Chen
Let's go back first.
My bruises are almost healed, but I think I need to regain my energy
Shao-Chen
I'll tell you everything later
Shao-Chen's maid
Absolutely, milady. You should rest first
Shao-Chen
'I never believed that Cold Palaces actually existed when I read about them in novels and Chinese Dramas'
Shao-Chen
'But looks like that's where I was abandoned to'
Shao-Chen
'Well, I guess it's obvious now. My first task will be too take back my own quarters!'
Shao-Chen
'I'll move in to the Central mansion!'
Author (Me)
Heyy guys, hope y'all remember this,
' ..........' means the character is thinking
(..........) means an action that is happening or the character is doing
Shao-Chen
Say Lin, what do you know about 'spiritual ability'? And what is its connection with Royal Blood?
