Chapter 8

The Emperor Comes to the Rescue

At the mingyue palace, the ninth princess (Wei Ying) was receiving the worst brutal treatment of all.

Wei Ying's knees were badly bruised and bleeding.

The Imperial consort sniggered, "Ah, look at your kneeling ceremony, it's so stiff. Looks like you have never been taught discipline! Nevermind, I'll teach you."

Wei Ying closed his eyes, the sweat dripped from his forehead, his entire body burning. But he was determined to pass the test of his I'll fortune.

Wei Ying, lack of forbearance in small matters upsets great plans. You have to endure. And endure he must." He chanted them in his mind and kept kneeling, his fists clenched to subdue the pain surfaced from his burning knees.

The Imperial consort knew no mercy. She pulled Wei Ying through the chin and brought his face to meet hers.

" Look at your expression. Are you not satisfied with the present I gave you? Or do you think that I'm intentionally making it difficult for you?"

Wei Ying shook his head, "No....No....

" That's good. Afterall you are so pretty. How can I make things complicated for you?

What I do, I do for the sake of you. "

She clutched the ninth princess by her jaw, her fingers were harsh and cruel, but the ninth princess said not a word. He only nodded his head.

"Thank you, lady imperial consort.....you are so thoughtful...."

"You....." the Imperial consort raged in anger for she failed to break the ninth princess and that made her mad with fury.

Her maid interjected-

" Lady....the coming days would be long today..... let's not overdo it. "

The Concubine was reluctant to stop her game, but after some thought, she decided to give up.

" Rise up " - she commanded to Wei Ying.

Green Lotus is right. The ninth pelrincess is still favoured. If I overdo it, I couldn't be able to explain it to his majesty.

She thought and smiled menacingly.

"Yes" Wei Ying sighed as he slowly stoop up. His head was reeling. I can't hold it..." he murmured as he shook his head. His eyes were closing , he couldn't stand still and then he saw the Emperor through his hazy gaze.

" Your majesty?"

Wei Ying shook his head, "No, that can't be. It must be an hallucination....he....he wouldn't come....why would he....

The Emperor bellowed as he held Wei Ying's limp body in his strong embrace.

" Ninth pelrincess?" Lan Wangji called but there was no response.

"Why is his body burning up so much? Did the Chen country send such a good-for-nothing here? Can't he even resist his tormentors?"

Aloud Lan Wangji screamed, his voice endoused in anger.

"If I didn't come, how else would lady imperial consort would make things difficult, lady Xie?

Answer!!

Imperial consort bowed in fear and nervousness.

" Attend to the Majesty. Why...why did you come here your majesty?"
