- Kill Bai Yunyu. I've informed the barbarian about the sudden invasion and gave them the right moment to strike. As long as Bai Yunyu is dead, the prize is in your hand. -
Huang Shu's eyes widened. He tried to reread it few more times, even though it was just a short letter, he just couldn't believe someone could be this vicious on his beloved.
That she orchestrated a deliberate plan of informing the barbarian and attacking Yunyu at the same time, so nobody would be able to protect Yunyu while he was out to fight the barbarian.Â
It was so devious and evil that only someone with a dark heart could do this. She didn't even hesitate to send eleven assassins at the same time to kill Yunyu, just to make sure that Yunyu was dead.Â
Huang Shu reread the letter, again and again. He wanted to deny the fact that he knew the owner of this handwriting. It was someone he knew really well.
Because it was his own mother, Imperial Concubine Ai.Â
Huang Shu knew that his mother hated Bai Yunyu, but he didn't expect her to actually act so deviously. She orchestrated everything just to kill Yunyu.
Huang Shu clenched his fist. He was furious with his evil mother. Even though they were so far away across the country, his mother still targeted Yunyu.Â
'If Yunyu is not a skilled fighter, he'd be dead at this point.'
'And there is no guarantee that she wouldn't touch Yunyu again'¦.'
'Mom, I really respect and love you as my mother, but why do you need to keep hurting me and my beloved? What is the use of all this?'
Huang Shu was hurting inside. He didn't want to take this extreme measure to stop his mother. But at this point, it was just kill or be killed.Â
Either his mother had to die, or his beloved Yunyu would suffer and die in the hands of his evil mother.Â
Huang Shu closed his eyes and steeled his heart. He didn't want to do this, but he had to.
He looked at his beloved Yunyu and then said, "My beloved, I promised that I will protect you from any harm. Even if the harm comes from my mother, then I will make sure to eliminate her, just for your sake."
"After this, I will have nobody but you. So I'm begging you, Yunyu, please don't leave me. Because after this, we only have each other to protect ourselves."
"I love you, Yunyu."
Thus, after he steeled his heart. He separated himself from Yunyu and then used a robe while whistling in a certain tempo to signal something.Â
Not long after, a soldier suddenly came to him and kneeled, "Yes, Seventh Prince."
"Return to the capital as soon as you can, go to Weaving Silk Tea Shop, and say that Seventh Prince wants to have a talk."
"When they're asking you for proof, show them my jade carving, and ask them to do one thing."
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "Kill Imperial Concubine Ai, and make sure to do it cleanly, possibly by poisoning. Make sure to whisper my name and Yunyu's name before her death. I just want to make her realize the importance of Yunyu in my life."
The spy disguised as a soldier was surprised, but he nodded and then replied, "This servant will go as fast as he could, Seventh Prince."
"Good, your reward is waiting for you in that Tea Shop. This is my jade carving and some money, don't lose it," Huang Shu handed his jade to the spy, and the spy excused himself before changing his outfit and rushing out of the garrison. Huang Shu also gave him enough money for a long travel.
Now all he could do was to wait for his mother's demise.Â
'Mom, I apologize for being unfilial. But I can't tolerate you every time you try to kill my beloved. I have to do something.'
Huang Shu returned to the room where Yunyu rested. He boiled the medicine for Yunyu personally and then propped Yunyu's body before feeding him slowly with the nourishing soup.Â
"My beloved, you're the only one I have in this world. So please don't leave me, or I might die in my grief'¦."
***Â
A week had passed after the invasion in the garrison. Bai Yunyu finally opened his eyes. The first person he saw was Huang Shu, who was sitting behind him, letting Yunyu rest on his muscular chest.Â
Huang Shu smiled, and he encircled Yunyu tightly, "You're finally awake, Yunyu."
"Ah'Shushu'¦"Â
Yunyu looked around and found that he was in a different room than before. So he expected that Huang Shu must've seen everything in his bedroom, including that twelve corpses.Â
"Yunyu, are you alright? Are you hurting somewhere? Who attacked you there?"
"I'"Yunyu paused after knowing that he was about to reveal the true mastermind of that invasion. He wanted to say that Imperial Concubine orchestrated everything, but he also remembered how filial Huang Shu was to his mother.
"Yunyu, tell me, who hurt you before? I will give him a punishment!"
"'¦"
[I mean, I really want to tell the truth to Huang Shu, but I don't know if Huang Shu would believe met'¦]
[Pupa: So what do you want to do?]
[I want to assassinate that Imperial Concubine when we returned to the Capital City. As much as I love Huang Shu, I don't think talking about killing his own mother was even possible, to begin with.]
[Pupa: Hm'¦ true. There is no use talking about it with Huang Shu, better to it quick and clean.]
Yuyu shook his head, he refused to answer.
"I don't know who sent those assassins either, but at least we are safe for now, Shushu."
Huang Shu chuckled. He already expected the answer from Yunyu.
Then he showered Yunyu with kisses before burying his face on Yunyu's shoulder.Â
"Yunyu, there are only two of us now. So please don't leave me'¦."
Yunyu's eyes widened, "W'Wait, what do you mean?!"
"I know the one who attacked you. You don't need to hide anything. And I already sent an assassin to kill her."
Huang Shu's arms around Yunyu's waist tightened, "Bai Yunyu, promise that you will never leave me because you're my only light in this bleak world."
