MY EVIL PRINCESS: Chapter 7: The trip to the countryside
PART 49 - THE DOUBT OF THE EMPEROR
All the flowers in the garden were shaking with the wave of her magic. The black smokes connected to each other to become a big black cloud. The cloud was bigger and bigger and it aimed to Hou Lei, surrounding her body and raising her up. She tried to escape but it tied her tighter. She could not call for any help, people would have doubts about her and her plan would go nowhere. She used all the spell she knew to break the cloud. It was too strong, suddenly the green gem on her hand shined and the light of it make the cloud disappear. Hou Lei landed on the ground silently, she looked around one more time and prepared to turn back to her room. However, it seemed that she had used a lot of magic of the gem to break the black cloud. She felt dizzy and fell down to the ground.
The Crown Prince walked pass through the Royal Garden and saw Hou Lei lying there. He came to her place and shook her:
-Hou Lei, what's wrong with you? Hou Lei?
She did not reply to his question, he got closer to her and thought she was in a faint. He carried her on his hands and walked to her room. Tian Liam also came there to meet her after thinking much. The two brothers met each other, Tian Liam got jealous when seeing Tian Leong carrying Hou Lei:
-Big brother, what are you doing with my wife?

-Your wife? – The Crown Prince laughed. – I saw her falling down in the Royal Garden, how a husband can let his wife lay alone in the garden?
-What did you say? Did she fall down in the garden?
-I don't know the whole thing, but she may get into a faint.
-Let me carry her! – Tian Liam extended his hands.
-Okay, she is your wife anyway. Take care of her, I'll call the doctor to check her health.
-Thank you, Brother!

Tian Liam carried her into her room and let her lay down on her bed. He asked Ah Jiang to prepare a basin of water and a towel. He used them to clean her face and her hands, there was some soil on her clothes and her hair too, he gently wiped them out of her. He touched the green gem on her hand and felt very strange. The Crown Prince returned with the doctor.
-Tian Liam, the doctor's here, let him check for Hou Lei!
Tian Liam stood up and stepped beside, he watched the doctor checking her pulse and her body.
-She was okay, nothing to worry! – The doctor said.
-Thank you! – Tian Liam said. – Do I need to take care of her specially?
-But I wonder why the Princess fell down at the garden. Her health signal shows that she is normal, her body doesn't get hurt or any wound. That's strange!
-Maybe she was tired? - The Crown Prince asked.
-Maybe. – The doctor answered. – I even don't know if that is true, her pulse is slow and constant.
-I will take care of her, if she has any strange, I'll call you. – Tian Liam said.
-So, I'll go, goodbye, My Princes. – The doctor said to them and left.
-Do you think that Hou Lei is very strange, Tian Liam? – Tian Leong asked him.
-Of course not, she is very normal. You know her, right? I think you even love her much.
-Yup, I love her but she and I don't have fate together.
-I'm very lucky when marrying her. She is such a good lady.
-So that you must treat her well, if you don't, I'll take over her from you! Although we're brothers, the fate lets us love one girl, haha. – Tian Leong laughed. – Oh it's not the fate, it's our father and our titles. The titles prevent us from doing what we like, loving who we want and marrying who we love. We must think about the benefit of our country first before our happiness.
-I know that, Brother. However, you already know, I don't care about the power in this palace, I only step beside of the fights and live my life simply.
-I know, but you can't totally get out of the things here. There will always some parts you have to take part in, always.
-From the time I married with Hou Lei, I've seen that, if she is still by my side, l can do anything for her. She just needs to be with me.
-I can see you love her much. But be careful, you still don't know much about her.
-I believe love will erase all the distance and borders.
-Good luck to you, brother! But remember, if you don't treat her well, she will be mine!
Tian Leong walked out of the room, before passing the door, he looked back at Hou Lei one more time. He still could not believe he lost her into his brother. He was attracted by her beauty from the first time they met and her well cooking skill even made him like her more. He knew that Tian Liam was a good guy, and the chance for him to take over Hou Lei from his hand was very low. Tian Leong still wanted Hon Lei so bad.
At that time, in the main palace, the Minister was discussing with the Emperor about something,
-My Emperor, from the time Princess Hou Lei got here, there have been many comments about her.
-Like what? – The Emperor asked.
-Some people said her very beautiful, some said she married the Prince for her own plan, some said she was strange.
-Everyone knows that she was sent to here to exchange the peace of the West Land, so that's not her plan, it's her father's. She was strange? I don't see any piece of that, I can only see a good daughter-in-law, especially when she took care of Tian Liam after he had been hurt by the assassin.
-That's the point, My Emperor. People said about the assassin!
-The assassin? – The Emperor surprised. – I think that case was closed because the Soldier General didn't find out that assassin.
-Yes, my Emperor. But do you ever think what if there was no assassin?
-No assassin? What do you mean?
-That's right! We couldn't find the assassin maybe because he didn't exist.
-I think you thought too much, Mr. Liu, how can a Princess like Hou Lei fought and won Tian Liam?
-Many people said how there could be someone who could defeat the Prince like that. Our Third Prince is very good at martial arts, or we can say that he is the best in our Palace. How he could be fought by an assassin and got heavy injuries?
-We don't know all the people in our country and maybe he came from another country. There will be always a better one than the best we've known.
-I understand your idea, my Emperor. But at least our Prince could hold on and keep him there until the soldiers arrived and helped him.
-So you want to say that Hou Lei helped the assassin?
-What if she didn't use martial arts?
-So what she used? Give me an acceptable explanation!
