Chapter 38 - First Friend

Today is the start of the hunting festival, and it's been weeks since I last saw Min er. I'm also having big trouble putting on this hanfu that was given to me by Jin Wangye. I wonder if I can put it on properly.

*Knock knock temporarily stop what I'm doing to see who's the person knocking. When I open it a little, the person outside pushes it to open wide.

"Pr… princess Lu Shan!" She looks annoyed, but there's still the cold air around her; she's really admirable.

"Princess Yanyu, how come you are not dressed yet?" I got frozen at my place.

"I… it's because…" She stopped me before I said something, and she flicked her finger. Then, 3 maids entered the room.

"Assist Yanyu in putting on her hanfu. I won't let my friend get into trouble because she didn't put the hanfu right." I brightened up when she suddenly said, Friend.

"F…friend?" When she heard me, she then looked at me and nodded

"Of course, you are my friend. I have never treated anyone like this before." When she said that, she looked really sincere, and I almost cried. Or, so I thought.

"Geez, Yanyu, why are you crying? There's no way my friend will cry just like that, hmmp." I immediately stopped my tears. I still can't get enough of it to think that she'll become my friend is such a stroke of great luck for me.

"Yanyu, remember that you are there as one who can represent our emperor even though he hasn't married you yet. Use this opportunity to prove yourself to them. I know that you are capable of doing that." I don't really know if I can do that, but still, I have this mixed feeling about marrying their emperor. Besides, there's still a chance that he won't accept me since I'm such a useless person. I looked at Princess Lu Shan, and she's frowning, but still, she's so beautiful.

"Yanyu , you are having negative thoughts, right?!" She asked me, but I just nodded, and she once again reprimanded me. I still didn't get a good look at the hanfu that Jin Wangye gave me because it's hard to see what its appearance is not yet worn. It is a light green hanfu that has a very fine silk that is very comfortable; it even has a very thin shawl that perfectly complements the hanfu . When the maids finished, I was sent outside, then there I found Princess Lu Shan eating the grapes that I bought secretly when she noticed me, she then turned to look from my head to toe.

"Fumu fumu , you look presentable now, let us go. The carriage has been waiting for us outside, but Yanyu , why are your eyes… " She didn't finish what she was supposed to say when someone suddenly knocked on the door.

"Your highness, the carriage has arrived," She immediately leads me outside. I wonder why the carriage arrived just now? Well, this is the castle. Maybe he asked permission from the wangye to enter the carriage, but she doesn't need to do that, though. 

When we went outside, I saw a very luxurious carriage, but still much more inferior to the one that had sent me here from the border.

Princess Lu Shan entered before me, but when I was about to enter, I felt a very ominous feeling.
