Royal Traven palace
It been 30minutes yet no messenger from the Qui manor neither the Qui princess herself.
Your majesty ....lichen called seeing him drawing the crown that the crownprincess must wear on their wedding day per ritual but his mood was rather worst nor dangerous neither happy scaring them with his moodless, even his wife the crownprincess who was supposed to be here for her tailored dress wasn't here either.
Speak,he order without looking up.
Should I go over to bring Her grace,Lichen ask.
He stop the moment he's done with the crown drawing.
Tell the craftsmen to make this Phoenix silver headwear for her,it shouldn't be heavy but weightless and unique like I wanted, no mistake,he order stretching it forth as his enuch( Yoobin ) collected it.
Gunjun just watch.
Are we leaving,Gunjun ask seeing him stand up.
He nod.
Where your majesty, because the way he was heading was like to his horse ranch probably going out completely from the palace .
He mount unto his white horse with silver beards hair.
Lichen and Gunjun mount on theirs with four elite guards .
He pick his race as they race after him.
Meanwhile his gold(Dragon design) and black robe signify his position.
They follow behind even passing the market square, the secret guard already clear the market square road judging his movement, and facial expressions they came to realised he was going to the prime minister's manor.
Lichen and Gunjun smirk.
They knew there will be war, same time jubilating in their heart for a rare scene apart from the official meetings and even the Prince ,comsorts always avoid him like a contagious diseases.
For him to pass through the market square without his royal carriage means he want to keep a low profile and he loves horse more than carriage, he always feel worst in carriage especially during the royal Pilgrimage.
The guards sensing and seeing the Lion robe used to cover the horse body and the sounds due to the ornament adornment realised the man with this is non other than the crownprince runs inside to inform but surprisingly was stopped by the royal secret guard who was inside before he even amount.
The Qui Guard fall flat on floor ,non daring to raised their head as he walk with so much might and the aura was like a killing soul for them.
The maids walking fall on their knees ,non daring to raised their head.
They never see such a royal direct lineage in their entire life closely mostly inside Qui manor, they dare not think or thought of why was he here,also more importantly the princess was still kneeling in the garden.
Where's she,he ask lichen who already turn to air to search for her room.
Kneeling at the garden centre, Lichen reply bowing.
He walks the way as Lichen lead the way.
Instantly all the Qui families were out.
Fear gripped them.
They have even forgot they told Quimin to kneel since last night, and checking the time it's almost noon.
They all stare blankly as they tries to block his view from seeing the Kneeling Quimin.
Welcome your majesty they all kneel and bow except Quiyi who was overbend,after all he's the state prime minister, even the Prince still had to bow in return but this devil never for once bow his head except for his father when he was sitting on throne.
He says nothing.
Pls leave the road Lord Qui ,Gunjun said .
Pls let me take you to the mainhall,pls come with me your majesty, he said.
Yes your majesty, I will prepare the best for you, just tell me what you wanted to have,Quiyan said.
I get the best wine your majesty, Qui Xaun said.
Lichen draw his sword they all gave way.
Quimin doesn't have the strength anymore to keep going most especially due to the beating tears and wound earlier which was exposed to rain and all,it may have get infected. She was able to hold still thanks to her determination and how she lived before pretending to be Quimin.
He walks to her front.
The woman in his front was almost turn ghost by look yet sickly and extremely beautiful.
He look at her pale lips
Your majesty, Suchu and Rue called as they kneel and bow, after all they did night together but not in punishment.
Your majesty, I only just ask her to kneel she..... Quiyi wanted to say more but the moment lichen draw his sword the word was cut short in fear.
Quimin smirked and smile.
He understand her like bookcover.
Stand up,he order.
She wanted to but can't as she fall weakly.
He bend low and carry her ,after all no one dares stand when he didn't allow it.
I guess you love staying in my arms woman, he said coldly.
Quimin just fall in deepstate of unconsciousness.
Call the royal physician, he order.
Gunjun whom have bit knowledge of medicine gave them firstaid as the maids including all maids available gets to work.
Quiyi was sweating, if he can punish and having his sister demoted to ordinary consort by making use of his father sword, killing him is nothing....
Few minutes later the royal physicians was sweating as the three of them rush in with their kits.
Your majesty they greeted, he ignore as he sit having a cup of tea prepared by his elite guard and enuch who always follow him on war and everywhere with lichen and Gunjun.
After few more minutes they were done.
I get the medicine prepare now,her grace have been kneeling for so long and Due to her condition and the unhealing wound ,it get infected also new flesh of wounds was tored due to the cause beating, it open up the previous wounds, it make take awhile before she wake up your majesty, he explain.
He nod as the female among them apply antidote powder on the open flesh.
Note: everything was done behind the curtains covering Quimin bed while Rue and Suchu was with the female royal physician helping out since the male can't have access to her body.
After close to an hour the medicine was made but unable to drink it since she was still sleeping.
Your majesty it can only be given to her grace by.....
He collected the medicine gulp it into his mouth and pass it to her mouth.
The Qui's family was sweating yet feeling the pain of the Kneeling on a harsh floor in the scorching sun in the garden, they dare not stand up and move a spot.
