Three months passed by...
I went to walk to look at the red blossoms, it was already winter. It's almost one year that I've been in the palace. I was still a lonely concubine who was already forgotten by the king. Maybe, I wasn't fated to be with him... I thought to myself. Then, I heard someone speaking...
Li Yu; "Last Night the Wind & Rain Together Blew"
"Last night the wind and rain together blew,
The wall-curtains rustled in their autumn song.
The candle died, the water-clock was exhausted,
I rose and sat, but could not be at peace.
Man's affairs are like the flow of floodwater,
A life is just like floating in a dream.
I should more often go drunken through the country,
For otherwise I could not bear to live." Prince An De Wang said.
"Who are you? But, greetings." I said while bowing. "You don't know who I am? I'm Prince An De Wang. The emperor's younger brother. Greetings, my lady." He said. "Being a prince yet so cheerful. Seems like you aren't caged like a bird." I said. "A prince is caged just like a concubine. You are being protected, not being able to go outside. Not being able to do what you want but I can do anything." He said.
"My lady! The empress asks us to go to her palace." Ling Long said. "Goodbye, An De Wang." I said.
