What’s Your Gender, Princess? - Chapter 12
When i did that, Princess Shengan slightly shrinked a bit, but stood still on the spot, let me took that flower bud that still on the side of her ear.
She looked at the cloth that spreaded out on the stone table, also looked at the flower bud on the ground, didnt understand as she looked at me: Your Majesty, this.
Although it is still mourning period, you also do not need to wear a flower bud, you are quite similar with it, you are still so young, while you also have limitless possibility. The matters about your father, i felt guilty and ashamed, but that was also indeed the last resort by the time he threatened my life. I could only acted that way. you are my consideration, but i also cannot guarantee the live between civilian, i hope you treasure yourself more, do not put your life in trouble.
I ended my words as i looked meaningfully at the cloth on the table, i sighed and said: You go.
Shengan stood still on her spot, looked at me blankly, suddenly loosened her hand that caused the umbrella fell on the ground, splashed the water, she rushed up along with the blossomed flower on her ear, she leaned completely on my arms. She buried her head on my nape, there were tears dropped on me, although the weather was cold it seemed hot to me, also because her voice seemed desperate.
Brother Qing, brother Qing. She shout out, crying so hard. Brother Qing, why are you so kind to me, you clearly know that i will come to kill you!
Uh Miss, it is not that i want to be good to you, but Prince Wumin wants me to pretend to act like that.
My hands stiffed that finally i could only placed it on the back of Princess Shengan as i gently patted her and did not know what other words i should say Princess Wumin only taught me to end it with the phrase You go and didnt know what is the next development, in fact it was not within my control, only she cried so heartbroken for how many long, the rain that poured slowly getting bigger like a soybean that hit my face. From the beginning i was feeling sympathy for the princess, but now it turned helpless. My heart was also vaguely started to hate Prince Wumin.
How could he did not remind me, that there were a shelter around the corridor to stay from the wind and rain.
In the end, after Princess Shengan poured out too much, she slowly withdrew his body and opened her mouth, dumbly said: Your Majesty, please forgive me, this lowly concubine had just offended you.
I stiffly said: Its nothing
Whod expected that Shengan suddenly knelt down. My line of sight went down at her figure as i saw a glimpse of her pair of white embroidered shoes have been dyed gray, her skirt was also got dirtied with mud and wet from the rain.
I was confused: You, this
Answering to the emperor, this lowly concubine plead guilty to you! She said it loudly, This lowly concubine was actually wanted to assassinate the emperor, really deserved the million dead!
I said: Uh, its nothing, you get up
Shengan shook her head, said: This is not only the case, in fact, our clan also want to assassinate the emperor tonight. this time we sent you the poisonous needle that actually did not able to assassinate the emperor because it was too obvious. We intended to let the emperor to think that will do it only this one time, let the emperor relax in the evening and when that time is come, it was the time for another assassination
I was surprised, Shengan really shocked me, although no one taught me this, i knew what i should say, i said after clearing my throat: I do not blame you. Get up.
The sound of the dripping water was gentle.
Shengan still cried: I cannot rise, Your Majesty, actually i really have suspected that you are the one that killed father. I am really an idiot. The imperial edict clearly stated that you are the emperor. What is the problem with father? You are not supposed to kill him like that, but you are the emperor ah I am really an idiot. Why would i able to believe those people? To actually want to kill you..
I went silent for a moment. Just when i was going to speak, suddenly there were a voice behind me, with a slight sad tone, said: Jiejie, you are indeed silly.
If i was not mistaken, wasnt that voice mine? But also Prince Wumin. What he called Shengan? Jiejie.?!
I turned my head silently looked back only to see Prince Wumin, he-or now she, looked at Shengan with sad eyes and full of emotion, even the eyes had a slight trace of tears. Seeing him appeared so sudden, Shengan was surprised, wanted to say something when Prince Wumin, who slowly came to her side, squatted next to her to help her picked the umbrella, said: You er jiejie, i am Princess Zhang Yi, you surely know who i am.
Shengans face was colder and turned into her original arrogant expression: Humph! What? Do you want to laugh at me?
Prince Wumin shook his head: No, no, not like that
Why was when Prince Wumin said something like that, i really wanted to vomit?
Prince Wumin then slowly looked at me, said: Chenqie greet the emperor.
Uh, uh
Prince Wumin nodded his head, and also looked at Princess Shengan: You-er jiejie, the time i have meet with the emperor is about ten days, how can there is love between us? Although i am always stayed beside the emperors side, i often feel that Your Majesty is very sad. I know that in the emperors heart has another person, i also know who that person is
Prince Wumin stopped his words, looked at Shengan without any deep meaning. Shengan was unable to believe as she looked at me, bited her lips, and bowed to me before leave.
I am tired In the end, what was Princes Wumin wanted to do? Let me acted on the spot only to vomit? Or to crushed my chest with a big stone?
But for the sake of the people of the two kingdom and the commoner and the country itself, we need to be together. Anything before the kingdom, what is the private affair? I know that the emperor has sacrifice a lot, i am also the same Prince Wumin took a very deep breath, to not let the tears fell, he continued: Moreover, for the matter to reach to this point, i know that you two have a long friendship each other, but You er jiejie, have you ever thought, now that you has told the emperor all of your clans plan, the emperor will inevitable doing a countermeasure. Your clan will certainly know that you are the one that spill it out to the emperor. At that time, you as the traitor to the family, i am afraid. they will not be soft hearted on you. After all, they are the one that let you come into the forefront, also know, that if you are not there in the emperors heart, you will die!
Prince Wumin didnt only skillfully analyzed the situation, but also provoked the relationship between Princess Shengan and her clan, it was very shameless. Wu Min Jun leisurely looked at me and i immediately knew his meaning: Doesnt matter, doesnt matter. I will not take any prevention.
How can you do that! Princess Sheng An screamed. Brother Qing, you must prevent it! I I do not matter, I have no intention to go with them. My father was dead. Actually, there is a property that does not confiscated, i know where it is, but they do not know, only they keep asking me, also lie to me, make me go assassinate you. I can go back later, immediately bring back that property, going alone to the Nan Wen Country. I have been a princess for so long, i thought i knew everything, in the end i knew nothing. I.. I have lived a reclusive life that ive forgot.
Under constant hints from Wu Min Jun, i squatted down and hesitantly replied to Sheng An: You-er, thats being said, you have been wronged.
I havent been wronged! Princess Sheng An raised her voice as her eyes looked at me tenderly. Your Majesty, You-er is willing!
She finished her words as she sighed: Unfortunately, now i could never be together with Your Majesty.
In fact, what she said was more or less contained a hidden meaning. If i really liked her, how could i not think a solution? But i pretended to be confused, but calmly said: If we are destined in the afterlife
Wu Min Jun clasped his hand and laughed: Do not say afterlife. In the near future, you may also have the opportunity.
Sheng An looked at me, nodded her head, said: I hope
Her eyes was so melancholy and full of sadness, also concealed the expectations towards the unknown future. I couldnt bear to see that eyes, only gave her a smile, then didnt look at her anymore.
Wu Min Jung interrupted: How about this, You-er jie-jie? You go to the nearby study room, write something to give it to the emperor. Hm, then let the emperor keep it safe.
I didnt know what kind of intention Wu Min Jun had, i could only said: Do not force You-er.
Sheng An heard what i had just said, she smiled: No, i also intent to do this.
Later, Princess Sheng An wrote three characters: Yuan Jun An.
(In the original it was. i am not sure how to translate this three characters, so i leave it be. if someone has an idea or suggestion about this, please tell me)
At the end, she also put down her signature, Feng You.
Not long after that, Sheng An left the palace. She sat in a simple carriage out of the palace. During that process, she had been staring at me through the curtain. I really didnt know what to do.
Sheng An was gone. The rain was getting lighter, refused to let go, but no one with the same flower on their ears had a nice look like Sheng An had.
( i really dont have any idea about this sentence mean. I tried to figure out several mean, but feel weird and confused. Since i have no editor and proofreader, please excuse my incompetence)
Everything stayed the same, apart from the umbrella that fell on the ground and the fallen into the mud flower bud.
