The Princess And The Lord

Lory thought everything happened because of her but Ming Yue Yin thought differently, Lory had been in this world for at least two years while she was working at Lao Manor and for that time nothing had happened out of the ordinary until Lao Min Na suddenly emerge from a useless and forgotten princess to one of the most talented people on the continent soon after strange things start to happened and gradually everything has gone downhill since then.

Lazarus the Ancient Demon from Lory's world, follows her from Lory's old world to this world but why doesn't he appear in front of Lory? Isn't that the best time to kill Lory? Lory has lost most of her powers and so has Girsha, if at that time Lazarus decided to kill Lory it would be very easy

Then why did he choose to appear before Lao Min Na, could it be a mere coincidence?

Lory had explained to her that the Demon according to the myth of Lory's world was a god who was punished for making a big mistake, then was Lazarus a God? and why was he punished?

There is another question, why is Lazarus more active in this world than Lory's world? Was it because Lazarus couldn't control Lory completely because of Girsha's interference, or because of something else?

Ming Yue Yin raised her hands above her head and stretched her limbs then took a deep breath, Ming Yue Yin pinched her glabella. The more he thought about it, the more questions she got.

"Fu Ying, can anyone check what's going on in the Whisper forest?" Ming Yue Yin was sure something very important had happened within that place.

"That's the case, I sent a lot of people no one came back, should we continue to send someone else, maybe someone with a higher cultivation"

"No" Ming Yue Yin raised her hand "We're just sending people to their graves, it's not worth it…" Ming Yue Yin wouldn't play around with the lives of her subordinates carelessly for something uncertain.

Fu Ying was relieved, he knew Ming Yue Yin would not agree but he was at ease when Ming Yue Yin confirmed her opinion, "What should we do, Your Majesty"

"Keep an eye on the Xiao family, I wonder how much their cultivation has increased and where they kept the Hybrid beasts they bought from Lao Min Na"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Fu Ying cupped his fists firmly and then he left. 

Ming Yue Yin pondered as she rested her head on her fists as Su Yi entered the room bringing dessert and wine while Su Feng cleared the table before Su Yi put everything on the table but Ming Yue Yin didn't seem to notice for she was immersed in her thought, "Your Majesty, what is troubling you?" Su Yi politely asked.

Su Feng was also worried, "Your Majesty, do you have a stomach ache, why don't you touch the dessert you usually finish all the food quickly?"

Ming Yue Yin's brows twitched, even though Su Feng meant well but why did she describe her as a glutton? 

"Nothing, I was just thinking about something..." Ming Yue Ying's finger tapped the table in a monotone voice then suddenly she raised his head "I have to meet my aunt, now!" Ming Yue Yin suddenly got up from her seat and strode out.

Meanwhile, Lory was inside the pavilion she cupped her cheeks on the table while watching Zhao Li Xin play Gu Qin with sparkling eyes, The music was soft and beautiful it made one's heart flutter like crazy. Zhao Li Xin's movements are smooth and elegant, he looks excessively charming and even more handsome when he plays Gu Qin, every time Zhao Li Xin plays Gu Qin Lory can't stop drooling over him, she realizes this is why so many girls become fangirls of group bands however all of that boy bands can't ever match her husband's level of elegance and grace, so sexy!

Zhao Li Xin naturally noticed his wife whose eyes lit up and he enjoyed her, which man wouldn't like to be the object of the admiration of the woman he loves.

Zhao Li Xin finished her music, then he cast his gaze towards Lory, "Stop drooling?" he was joking.

"I do not!" still she wiped the corners of her mouth, knowing she had teased Lory's pout of anger or embarrassment to be exact.

Zhao Li Xin chuckled in a low baritone voice that could captivate any man and woman who have ears.

'What a sinner' thought Lory.

"Li Xin..." Lory called out.

"Hmm?" Zhao Li Xin tilted his head.

"Don't play Gu Qin in public okay" she gave a sudden reminder.

"Hmm?" Zhao Li Xin was confused, is he like someone who likes to show off his skills in front of others? didn't want to add to his wife's annoyance Zhao Li Xin agreed without hesitation "Okay"

Lory smiles sweetly which makes her adorably silly.

Their romantic lady was disturbed by Ming Yue Yin's appearance which was not welcomed by Lory and Zhao Li Xin. Ming Yue Yin's expression was grim, "This is how you treat your guests"

"You've been living in this Manor for over a week, you're more like a freeloader" Lory quipped.

"I thought this is the only place in the world that dare to treat me this way" The Empress felt hurt.

"So, are you going to leave my Manor?" Zhao Li Xin asked.

Ming Yue Yin replied unabashedly, "NEVER!"

Lory feels like a troubled parent with her immature eldest daughter refusing to move out of her home.

"Okay, what are you doing here" Lory let out a resigned sigh.

"I want to meet Jin Hua, do you want to come too? I want to ask about what she saw in the whispering forest" Ming Yue Yin invited him, Lory.

"Oh okay... I heard that too but I don't want to disturb Miss Jin Hua's resting time, I heard her injury was quite bad, can we visit her now?" Lory was excited, to be honest, she was also curious to know Jin Hua's full story.

"Then let's go." Ming Yue Yin waved her hand.

"I'm coming too" Zhao Li Xin stood up then he hold Lory's hand.

Seeing Lory and Zhao Li Xin's intimacy, Ming Yue Yin felt jealous, "Why do you always make me a third wheel?" Ming Yue Yin's complaint.

"So tell Yuan Shao to come home quickly." Lory snorted as she hugged Zhao Li Xin's hand, deliberately showing their affection.

Ming Yue Yin pursed her lips into a pout, she also wanted Yuan Shao to return sooner but she didn't want to hinder his ambition, because of her position as the Empress, Yuan Shao must have thought he needed to prove himself a worthy companion to the Mighty Royal Empress of Liang Zu kingdom. Even though Ming Yue Yin could accept Yuan Shao as he is but the other officials and citizens probably couldn't especially since Yuan Shao is a man.

But even though Ming Yue Yin understood that didn't mean she didn't miss him especially when she saw the intimacy of his two friends with their husbands, sometimes she couldn't deny how lonely she was.

Lory saw the 'Boy' looking gloomy, although Ming Yue Yin rarely talked about Yuan Shao it didn't mean Ming Yue Yin didn't think about him, Yang Xi Ying told Lory that one day she caught Ming Yue Yin staring at the old letter she got from Yuan Shao with a sad look, obviously, Ming Yue Ying must really miss Yuan Shao.

Lory wrapped her other hand around Ming Yue Yin's arm and pulled her closer, "Want to hear some good news?"

"What?" Ming Yue Yin frowned.

"There is news from Zhuang Dong continent, someone asked Hei Shen sect many rare gem items, they said it was for dowry" Lory grinned widely.

"W… what?" Ming Yue Yin's mouth fell open, there was only one person she knew from the Zhuang Dong continent.

"I think someone will get married soon~" Lory poked Ming Yue Yin's cheek.

"No, wait! Why didn't he tell me anything?" Ming Yue Yin became confused, she felt happy, confused, excited, worried and everything merged into one then her face turned bright red.

"I think he wanted to surprise you" Lory chuckled.

Ming Yue Yin felt her heart pounding as her eyes twinkled with anticipation she was overjoyed by their upcoming reunion, it had been quite a while and she had been waiting for his return for a long time, finally, the wait will be over, when Yuan Shao comes she will….bashed him on the head!

"So you ruined the surprise?" Ming Yue Yin pretended to be angry.

"But I didn't tell you when he would come, it could be tomorrow or next week, who knows...." Lory shrugged then twirled her index finger in front of Ming Yue Yin in a playful manner "And you cannot help but wait for your knight arrival with a pounding heart~"

"..."

Ming Yue Yin's mouth twitched, she would indeed wait for Yuan Shao like a love-sick girl, she might even dress up on purpose every day just in case Yuan Shao did come that day, not to mention that she might not be able to sleep after this.

Imagining the hard days she would have to go through waiting excitedly for Yuan Shao to return Ming Yue Yin then looked at Lory in annoyance

'That's very mean of you!'
