Chapter 30 - 30. Spring festival II (1/2)
Third person POV
The road was bustling with people, shops and performances was on the road side making the main road even merrier. But they immediately dispersed when they saw a black and red flag coming to their way. The front row is the Da Qi's representative, Da Qi's crown prince Liu Weisheng. Behing him is Xu family, they are one who escort the crown prince to the palace.
All of them looks really intimidating especially their masks. The Da Qi wore black mask but Liu Weisheng's mask is more special, his mask is black and gold, it is giving a frightening aura. The Xu family wore red mask but only Hong er wore white and gold mask. The people that are watching them were confused.
P1: ” Who is that? She must be someone special to Xu family, just look at her clothes, it must be very expensive.”
P2: ” I don't know. They said that their daughter were dead. Is that even possible?”
P3: ” But they never found the baby's body.”
P1: ” hmm, makes sense.”
They looked at Hong er once more, ' she looks like a goddess even with her mask on.' Hong er felt that someone were staring at her so she looked at them. They were surprised that she looked back and what surprised them even more was she waved at them. They could only wave back at her. Hong er put down her hand and continued to what she was doing.
P1,2,3: ' She is friendly…'
After they entered the palace, they dismounted their horses and walked towards Long Gong guided by eunuchs and maids. Long Gong is the throne room and the place where parties were held by the Emperor. Liu Weisheng walked in front while Xu Tingfeng walked behind him. Followed by Bai Huiqing and Hong er, they stopped at the door and waited for eunuch to announce their name.
Eunuch: ” The Crown Prince of Da Qi enters the hall.”
The eunuch shouted with all of his strength. Liu Weisheng entered the hall with two of his aides. Liu Weisheng's soldiers waited outside together with Xu Tingfeng's soldiers. His charisma was very outstanding even for a 12 years old kid, he is the rumored Cold Hearted Genius Prince. He is strong, tall, rich, and very handsome, but no one except his mother, sister, and his closest aides had ever seen his face.
Liu Weisheng coolly went to greet the emperor and the empress. He didn't waste any time, he immediately went to his seat and sit down. Some of the people in the hall looked at him with admire but some of them looked at him with resentment. They were jealous at him. Girls looked at him with eyes full of love, he didn't even glance at them. In his head, he only think about his Hong er.
Liu Weisheng: ' haa~ Hong er is as beautiful as always, especially when she rides her horse. But it is not fun, she didn't talk to me like the way she did before. Is it because she didn't recognize me? Does it mean she only treats me ( Sheng ge) like that? not to the other boy or guy? Should I be happy happy or sad?'
If anyone know what he was thinking right now, they would puke blood. His aura was so intimidating, making him unapproachable.
Eunuch: ” The Great General Xu and Xu family enters the hall.”
The eunuch shouted again. Xu Tingfeng walked in front and followed by Bai Huiqing and Hong er. Everyone was very surprised by the newcomer, especially the Emperor and Imperial Noble Consort(Huang Gui Fei). The girl was walking fearlessly, just like his father and mother, she had a menacing aura.
Liu Weisheng: ' Look at how beautiful the way she walks.'
Hong er felt like she was being stared but she ignored it, she has to concentrate. Mother said that being here is more dangerous than in battlefield. The three of them greets the Emperor and the Empress who sat up there. They could feel the glare from the person that sat on the top.
Xu Tingfeng: ' Heh! Do you feel intimidated by my daughter's presence?'
