"Someone get a physician! Quick!" Cried the young woman.
When the physicians arrived they moved Jian's body to his vast sleeping chambers. Jian lay there on the large round shaped bed with red sheets covered in gold designs whilst the physicians examined him.
"Your higness, the Crown Prince's health is fine, but he's in a drunken state other than that he's perfect, we'll prepare medicine for when he his sober and feels sick", said the main physician bowing to the Crown Princess.
The Princess let out a sigh of relief and gestured for them to leave. She lay down on the black and gold carved wooden sofa with plush pillows, where she closely examined her husbands facial features who was sound asleep. He was laid back on the the bed,his long brunette hair covering half of his smooth warm face, only showing his shut right eye. The way he slept reminded her of her wedding day.
Flashback 2 years ago:
Today was the day Xin was to be married to Crown Prince Jian, she was both nervous and excited. She has been preparing for this day since she first met the Crown Prince at the annual imperial ball, she believed it was love at first sight, but she knew the feelings she felt were unrequited. This didn't stop her from begging her Father the Prime minister Yang to petition for her wedding to the Crown Prince.
When her father came to her with news confirming the marriage she was over the moon. Even though Xin was happy Jian wasn't too happy when he heard the news, He begged his Father to not force him in to this political marriage as he hated the Yang clan who were the one of the most powerful families in the court and were involved in the sinster disappearance of his brother, but of course Jian's pleads were ignored.
