(hi guys... Long time no see huh 🤣sorry this note is just to explain that the theme is ancient Chinese but names are not Chinese, as many found them confusing) [also I am not dead yet¡yay!!!¬_¬]
{Kei P. O. V}
It's been 4 weeks since the incident with the musician. Due to these old hags I don't have time to find him,and my longing for him is increasing. Neither Alex nor bellatorian is helping me sorting this matter nor I need it but if these ministers don't allow the war quick enough soon we will have no minister
.. Actually it's not a bad idea! As I get up from my seat. And walk outside someone start to walk beside me,well not exactly more like bellatorian was floating around
"u have the temper of a human teen going through puberty" she deadpan.
"Not the best time sister" I said through gritted Teeth if in this whole universe anyone can anger me and get away with it is my sister. Not because I don't get angry at her because this piece of snake shit always dodge!
"calm down they will report to mother" she said in her still monotone voice.
As if she remembers something she smirks "also big brother I catch the air about you visiting high priestess so what happen. Did you get medicine for your anger management"
My mood turned more sour with the mention of the person who I still don't know because that piece of bat shit went crazy rather than telling me how to recognise my 'soul mate'.
"What happened brother?? Ooooooh that time of month??" she asked as she started to laugh.
"Bella I will repeat not the best time for your jokes'' I said with murderous intent. She looked at me and immediately shut up after seeing the deadly dangerous glint in my eyes.
"well I just want to say don't kill them mother will know." she said now much more calm.
"I don't care about the old hag." I said
"I know u don't but you know she can break it right?? She will die in some years. Can u tolerate it till then??" she said now, sounding frustrated.
"OK then u deal with the ministers I feel bored and I don't like it" I said as I turned away.
{callus P. O. V}
The boy's name is Xian. He is the fifth son of eunuch. No, I don't have romantic feelings. He acts just like my little sister, just a little bit more mature but he is like a little brother to me. For 2 weeks he took care of me and even after that he kept helping me which I really appreciate apart from his disregard for personal boundaries.
It's been more or less a month since my encounter with his majesty, but by the mercy of God he didn't disturb me for this time period at all. maybe he mistook me for someone??
I am still practicing on my instrument when Xian run in my room
"teacher! I got dumplings for you, they are still hot, let's eat them quickly" he said in a loud proud voice.
"Okay," I said smiling softly at his childish act.
While we were still eating he suddenly put down his chopsticks and looked at me as he wanted to say something but as he already filled his face with two dumplings it was kinda hard for him to speak.he quickly finished the food in his mouth half choking and half swallowing.
"Teacher do you know that the king is on ministers to declare war on the remaining nation??" he asked me.
"Little Xian I never was curious about the politics played in the main court so it's hard for me to know," I said as Xian started to Look at me with disbelief.
"But teacher, you are one of the main musicians of the court. How could u not know???" he asked baffled by my ignorance
Truth to be told I didn't attend the imperial court since the encounter I know I have to but I wasn't ready nor do I think I ever was. Also I haven't listened to them before either. It's too easy for me to get lost in the string of my instrument rather than interesting myself in the debate of blood.
I just smile softly at him as I start to brew tea for both of us.
"teacher when will u come back to court?" he asked mouth filled thus time
"don't speak little Xian," I said as I looked at him.
He closed his mouth with a hump' and started to eat quickly.
"so will u come today??" he asked me
With anticipation filled in his eyes.
I sadly smile at him and lower my head thinking that I can't really run away from the confrontation. And it's imperial Court my absence can't be exuded for long.
"I have to go today little Xian '' I said with a deep sigh escaping lips surely the emperor won't be able to find me in the heavy crowd of musicians.
"finally!!! Teacher, which melody will you be playing?!?! Can u teach me??? Surely no one can play it better than you....." Xian asked excitedly. I slightly chuckled. I came to know that little Xian is an admirer of my zheng skill and always wished to meet me and to be my discipline.
" little Xian I am not that great of a teacher are u sure u are ok with me?"I asked him as I got up with empty plates which got snatched from me by Xian.
" If you are saying that you are not the best zheng player in the whole wide world then pardon my rudeness teacher. I think you are unaware of your own talent!! Now if you excuse me" he excused himself while fuming the whole way.

>imperial court<
{No one P. O. V.}
There were a total 15 musicians sitting in far back for light music where all of them preparing their instruments callus despite being one of the important sits in the far back all the while Xian chatter off with his sheng in his hand. While time callus looks like he could drop dead any moment but Xian was too busy admiring callus zheng to pay attention to pale male.
'my whole body seems to have gone stiff surely emperor won't remember me. Right? I shouldn't have come. I don't know what grave offence I have committed for the emperor to follow me with such anger. Oh my heavens save me' callus pleaded to the gods above unaware of the demon on his tracks.
Soon all musicians settle down and start with soft melody among so many instruments creating the soft melody as officials start to enter the court on the cue. The door keeper announced the arrival of every official after the court was full no chair was left emptied but only one the throne of emperor.
"Attention all the sons of heavens, the sun of-" he starts to announce loudly.
"that's enough." a rough voice cut the announcer as the emperor made his way toward the throne.
Callus's breath got stuck in his throat as he saw the emperor. He looked down at his trembling hand as he started to break in cold sweat. 'don't be paranoid callus the emperor, don't have time to think about you' he tries to reassure himself and after a while he looks up toward the throne only for all his calm to break down as he saw the emperor looking straight at him with an expression of a predator which screams that he caught him and it's difficult for prey to escape now.
