The Princess And The Lord

Qian Mu Ting waiting nervously in the main hall, for today she dresses even more beautiful then she uses to, the maid palace has done a painstaking effort to enhanced her natural beauty, she does look exceptionally stunning today, no men would ignore such a beautiful lady as her, still, she feel apprehensive and slightly excited waiting for Zhao Li Xin to come.

"You're highness don't be so nervous, it will wasted you're beauty" her maids comfort her. ​​

"Its true you're highness, you so beautiful even flower can't match you're beauty, Lord Long Ming will not ignore you unless his blind" the other chimed in confidently seemingly proud with her mistress beauty.

"Sst, don't say that this is Hei Shen territory what if they take you're jokes seriously" Qian Mu Ting reprimand her maids but deep down she feel pleased by her maid's words, no woman hated complement and Qian Mu Ting is the same.

The door suddenly opens, two valiant women with red dress open the door and they bow they're head respectfully than a woman in red robes enter the room. The red silk robes glistening under the light like a ruby, she tied her hair into a high ponytail and clip his hair with silver crown, she exuded with a majestic aura that even a prince and princess become dull in front of her.

Qian Mu Ting and her maids unconsciously raised from they're seats even though they don't know the identity of this strange woman. When Qian Mu Ting realizes what she had done is too late to sit again, she can only hold her embarrassment and waiting for the strange woman to sit on her chair but why she looks so familiar.

Ming Yue Yin flick her red robes before she takes a seat, Su Yi served her a cup of wine courteously, she takes her time to sip her wine without preceding Qian Mu Ting to take a sit and Qian Mu Ting had no choice but waiting awkwardly as her face turn red from the embarrassment.

"This lady is…." Ming Yue Yin glance at Su Yi.

Su Yi cupped her fist courteously "She is Second Princess of Liu Yan Kingdom Qian Mu Ting, You're majesty"

"Oh, I remember now, I see u at the gathering isn't it" Ming Yue Yin pretend she just notices her.

When Qian Mu Ting hear the servant in a red uniform call that strange woman 'you're majesty' she immediately recognizes the identity this woman in, she plops to the floor than cupped her fist courteously "Qian Mu Ting greeting you're majesty, empress Ming" quickly the maids behind her followed Qian Mu Ting suit.

Ming Yue Yin stares at them coldly, she remembers this woman sits quietly watching everyone bully Lory with a smirk on her face. at least Nan Yu Wei and the others dare to show they're hatred openly unlike Qian Mu Ting who hides her ugliness behind righteousness, someone like Qian Mu Ting reminds Ming Yue Yin how other people used to make a fool of her.

Because of this Nan Yu Wei rose her name's to top five Ming Yue Yin most hated person.

"Why are you here?" she asked in a monotone voice.

Qian Mu Ting could feel Ming Yue Yin's dissatisfaction with her, it make her more nervous then before "I…I wish to meet Lord Long Ming. I need to explain that what happened yesterday is got nothing to do with the Empress, is all Nan Yu Wei and Sacred Mountain Peak doing..."

"Lord Long Ming has no time to hear you plead" she rests her head on her palms looks bored as hell.

Interrupt abruptly by Ming Yue Yin she becomes tongue-tied, Ming Yue Yin ignored her as she continues "When you all bully my au…. Ri Yi, is it all Nan Yu Wei fault too, when you all laughing at her and wants to subdue her pets is it all Nan Yu Wei doing too, is no one wants to take responsibility? I was they're second princess, do you think I'm stupid or blind?" he raised her eyebrows as she stares at Qian Mu Ting with ridicule.

"No, you're majesty, I don't mean to! Is not…" Qian Mu Ting flustered her word jumble together incoherently.

"What's the point to explain anything!" Ming Yue Yin hits the table loudly "We all persuaded Luo Ri Yi not to come to the gathering because we know all of you will teasing her, but she said she doesn't care, she wants to respect The empress Kind invitation, but what happened after that!" she clasped her hands on her stomach.

Qian Mu Ting doesn't dare to raise her head, the anger she holds for two days finally breaks like a dam "What happened if Lo tie killed Luo Ri Yi, what else you want to explain after she rips by the beast, you think an explanation is sufficed! Forget about Long Ming if something happened to Luo Ri Yi I will cut you, the Empress and Nan Yu Wei head by myself!" Ming Yue Yin roar furiously, her anger made her own subordinated nervous.

Ming Yue Yin rarely angry but once she's angry just like Su Jing said she laid the raging fire, she will not stop until her enemy turns to dust, she had beheaded all the officials and they're family who involved in corruption in six months her reign she had beheaded dozens of officials and demoted hundreds more of them throughout every layer from high ranking to small official, her action is cruel and merciless but her citizen applaud her decision. Because of her the corruption in her kingdom was oppressed to minimal and the economy automatically rised.

Facing someone like Ming Yue Yin of course a princess who raised inside the boudoir will not become her matched, Qian Mu Ting petrified her chin trembles in fear, she forgot Ming Yue Yin is present when they ridiculed Luo Ri Yi, what should she do know the Empress adamant to make her Mother Empress responsible for what happened.

"Can I….can I speak with Lord Long Ming, They're's something I need to say to him" she didn't know why she insists to meet him, maybe deep down she still has hope with him, maybe if she meets him again….maybe…

Ming Yue Yin sneer "You lucky you talk to me, if its Long Ming you might stop breathing right now" is Qian Mu Tin think she's a fool who can't see what she up to?

"Right now Long Ming accompanies his fiancée after Luo Ri Yi got home she was…tired and Long Ming stay with her for two days without stop, the woman he loved come home with disheveled condition can you imagine how he feel right now?" Ming Yue Yin deliberately crush her fragile hope.

"Why do you think I'm here? Long Ming told me to replace him because he can't leave his beloved woman" Ming Yue Yin scoffed at her in ridicules "Don't waste you're time, if you re not Luo Ri Yi he wouldn't spare even a second with you" she sips her wine calmly, on the other hand, Qian Mu Ting face turn from red to white, Ming Yue Yin words give a sharp pang to her heart she can't give up on Zhao Li Xin even though the reality can't be clearer but his heart refuses to given up completely, she knew she's a fool but he can't forget about him.

Qian Mu Ting bit her lips, angry, sadness, shammed, everything combined into one than she lifts her head, Ming Yue Yin crossed her legs casually Ming Yue Yin look at her as if she beneath her, they are in the same aged but why the difference between them is so far she even can't match Luo Ri Yi in Zhao Li Xin eyes. She is the second princess of Liu Yan kingdom she is the object of envy of every woman in the Kindom and men would adore her but why? Why Long Ming never look at her!

Desperation strikes her, the pressured from her imperial family, her jealousy to Lory and her inferiority to Ming Yue Yin overwhelmed her, self-loathing begin to rose within her and she blames everyone to make her feel this way especially Ming Yue Yin and Luo Ri Yi.

"What about you?" she glared at Ming Yue Yin "Do you honestly get close to Luo Ri Yi because you like her or is it, Long Ming, that you have you're eyes on?" she brazenly asked without fear the outcome, what else she need to be afraid about when she got home her mother would punish her and when her mother loses her title they're would be no future for her too, at the end she would be pushed to the dark abyss so why scared now?

Ming Yue Yin startled, her subordinated also frown in dislike. Qian Mu Ting feel the small triumph but than Ming Yue Yin burst to laugh, she laugh so hard she clench her stomach and her subordinated shales they're heads with perplexed expression.

"Me and scarry Uncle? Are you out of you're mind?" she can't hold her laughter, she hit the armrest repeatedly.
