Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
At Green Hill Palace’ secret eting room.
Bai Linsu and Linghu Shuang were waiting at the doors. A man with gold-plated armor with carvings of flas on it proceeded to report on their arrival to the higher authority. As for the other black-armored guard, he stood at the doors to keep watch on Bai Linsu and Linghu Shuang.
One could imagine that Bai Linsu must have just put on her most serious look. She did not dare to look away from the doors. As for Linghu Shuang, she felt extrely nervous to enter the Palace. She did not even dare to take in deep breaths.
Creak…
The heavy stone doors were being pushed open. The guards who went in earlier were now out.
“The Empress will see you now, Bai Linsu!”
“How about ?” asked Linghu Shuang.
The guard then looked at her with a darkened face and did not even bother to answer her question.
“Shuang’er! Wait for
here! Rember! Do not simply spurt things that you shouldn’t say!”
“Yes master!”
Actually, Bai Linsu had given Linghu Shuang the sa advice multiple tis while they were on their way to the palace. Knowing how serious the consequences of running her mouth was, Linghu Shuang shut her mouth imdiately. Upon seeing that, Bai Linsu finally let out a sigh of relief and entered the secret eting room.
Black was the the of the secret eting room. Its interior design made the entire place look like a solemn funeral ho. A woman at her thirties was sitting at throne which was aptly placed in the middle on the chamber. She was wearing a crown and covered in a long royal robe. Clearly, this woman was none other than the empress of Green Hill, Bai Zxuan!
“Linsu! Co here! Let
take a look at you!”
The mont the Empress saw Bai Linsu, her serious look was swept away and it was replaced by a gentle deanour. Now, she looked more like a sister to Bai Linsu rather than an Empress.
“Sister…”
Bai Linsu walked towards her with a smile on her face. It was not hard to notice that the two of them were indeed sisters since they looked extrely alike.
“I know it’s been a tough journey for you! I’m sorry that you have to go out there all by yourself…” said Bai Zixuan while holding Bai Linsu’s hands.
As the younger sister of the Empress, Bai Linsu was actually part of the royal family. She could have chosen to stay at the palace to enjoy all the luxuries it had to offer if she wanted to. Because of a secret, Bai Linsu had to hide her true identity from others and risked her life to complete the task. One could only imagine the pain that she had to go through. That was why Bai Zixuan showed her so much love she was back at the palace.
“Today is a happy day! Let’s not talk about it!”
Bai Linsu put on a smile and took out a really beautiful jade from the pocket, and handed it to Bai Zixuan.
“Sister, congratulations for getting a prince! I’m giving this jade to my future nephew!”
“The doctor is not even here yet! How do you know it’s a prince? What if the baby is a princess?” asked Bai Zixuan with a smile.
“If he is a prince, he will inherit the throne! And if the baby is a princess, I’m pretty sure that she will becos as pretty as you!”
BAM!
Suddenly, the huge doors were being pushed open by soone. Without the escort of guards nor summoning by the Empress, an old thin man with a black robe walked into the secret eting room. Instead of getting angry, Bai Zixuan and Bai Linsu were showing a slight hint of fear.
“Prince Regent… Why… Why are you here?” asked Bai Zixuan in a trembling voice.
BAM!
The old man slamd the doors shut behind him.
“Greetings, my Empress!”
Clearly, the old man was angry but pretended that he wanted to kneel down in front of the Empress.
“It’s not necessary for you to kneel down in front of . I have ntioned that the Prince Regent works really hard in trying to maintain the country. There’s no need for all these formalities in front of !” said Bai Zixuan.
“Okay! Why didn’t you inform
that you wanted to et Bai Linsu? I wouldn’t have known about it if the guard didn’t tell
anything about it!”
“Regarding this…”
“I’m just eting my little sister. We are going to have a sister to sister talk. I didn’t think it’s necessary to inform you about it!”
“Of course you had to tell
about it! The King is now missing in action! The fate of the entire Green Hill’s Royal Family now falls on your shoulder! How am I supposed to answer to the ancestors of Green Hill if sothing bad happens to you?!”
“There are at least 300 Black Armor Guards protecting this place! You would eventually know if soone cos to visit ! That’s why I didn’t think it’s necessary to inform you!”
“My Empress!!! The King has been missing for so ti now! I constantly fear your safety! A lot of work has been done in maintaining the stability of Green Hill Starfield!”
“Yes.. Yes… Yes… I know that you have put in a lot of effort into this matter!”
“My Empress!!! You are now the ruler of this starfield! I don’t wish that anything bad happens to you! You must rember that if sothing bad happens to you, it might threaten the stability of Green Hill Planet! If that happens, we will both be blad for that!”
“Yes… I understand now… From today onwards, I will tell you every little that happens in my life!”
“That’s great! My Empress, always the wise one!”
“I still have sothing private that I want to discuss with my sister… can you please excuse us?”
“No! You didn’t tell the King that you have a little sister when you married him! Bai Linsu’s real identity has not been announced to the public yet! To put it at a mildly, she is an adventurer that likes venturing into the wild! To put it harshly, she’s not even part of the Royal Family! Supposedly, she has no right to even step into the Palace! My Empress, you and I are family! Why can’t I listen in to your conversation with an outsider?!”
Acting in a dominant manner, the old man showed no respect to Bai Zixuan. An outsider might have actually thought that the old man was in fact the real King.
“You and I are family! There’s nothing you can’t hear…”
“Okay… please continue your conversation… I will not interrupt it!”
The old man then sat the chair next to them with a suspicious and angry look on his face.
With a pale look on her, Bai Zixuan found it hard to continue the conversation.
“I’m here to congratulate you and hand you the gift. Please take good care of yourself and the baby! I will leave now!” said Bai Linsu.
“Alright! Please take good care of yourself as well…” said Bai Zixuan with her eyes reddened.
Bai Linsu lowered her head, left the secret eting room, and left the palace with Linghu Shuang.
“Sifu… Why are you crying?”
The mont Linghu Shuang talked, Bai Linsu covered her mouth.
These were the kind of things that she had to keep to herself.
