The Unknown Beauty 134 Why?

He can see the third prince was genuinely apologizing for his father's doing and hoping to keep their relations.h.i.+p as stable as possible.

"It's okay, Third prince. We heard many rumors about the bad reputation you father had from many of our new citizens and we also did nothing about it. It's no problem. These past dreadful years were our problem and the issues in w.a.n.g was solely yours. I believe it was a good thing we didn't interfere with each others problems because we found success own our own and feel proud of it," said the Chu Emperor.

"I'll gladly love to be allies again," said the Chu Emperor stretching out his hand.

"What did they mean Lady Lin?" asked Chu Yang.

Lin Yu Yan and the rest meet up with Chu Yang after they exchange greetings with the emperor. Chu Yang was close enough to hear the conversation as she hid behind the gate as fast as she could and the distraction Lin Yu Yan gave made them lose sight of her.

"I don't know... based on their surprised faces, I'm guessing my mother was here before..." said Lin Yu Yan. "I was told by my brother I looked a lot my my mother when we were children. But I don't see it."

'Aren't you still a child?' thought Chu Yang. Chu Yang is eleven years older then her and it feels like Lin Yu Yan has lived over 100 years already.

"Anyway, how are you going to meet your brother now?" asked Lin Yu Yan.

"Well, I planned to meet one of my good friends to maybe speak to him about the situation in the Chu Empire," said Chu Yang.

"Let's wait for a while then. Wei Ru and Wu Lang are out to gather a little more information. I never got the address from Quan Su Wen and they're helping me find it too," said Lin Yu Yan.

Lin Yu Yan thought about what really is going on, 'Is that why my brother is here? Because he heard mother was here?'

"It was a good distraction because the emperor totally forgot about why he rushed to the entrance and I got information about my mother. At least I know for certain she is alive," said Lin Yu Yan.

"It seems your mother really isn't dead just like you said," said Han Jingju.

"I mean Wu Lang told me the First prince fell off it too. If the first prince survived the fall, of course my mother would. Same with my father. I'm just confused as to why they didn't… come… back… to... get… me…" said Lin Yu Yan in chunks.

'Yeah… Why didn't they come back to get me…?' she thought.

The others felt a little awkward after Lin Yu Yan said that. Lin Yu Yan didn't look sad though. She just looked confused.

"Sister Yu Yan!" said Wu Lang running in the room.

"What is it?" Said Lin Yu Yan.

"That girl's grandmother… she's in critical condition!"

"What!? Where!?" asked Lin Yu Yan. Wu Lang, other then Han Bingwen and Lin Yu Yan, being the fastest, lead them to the house in no time.

Chu Yang, Han Jingju and Han Mingli were left behind to help find a place to stay for the night.

"Grandmother, please hold on!" said a crying voice. "Don't leave me like how mother left me…"

"Des.h.i.+, calm down! Someone will help her soon!" sand Quan Su Wen.

"Sister Su Wen! Your back!" said the crying boy running into her arms. "Grandmother… Grandmother is…!"

"No, She won't. My friend will be coming soon to help her," she told him in rea.s.surance.

Quan Su Wen met up with Wu Lang and Wei Ru when they got back from the forest. As they were talking about their situation, one of the medical sect. member found Quan Su Wen and rushed to go back home.

Wei Ru went along with them so Wu Lang could follow him to their location. Soon after, Lin Yu Yan and the rest made it to the location and she rushed in feeling the ominous energy coming out of the room their grandmother was staying.

'Again, the last stage of some sort of poison,' she thought. She notice the boy Quan Su Wen was holding and his sickness is the cause the situation to worsen.

"Quan Su Wen, Get him out of here. His sickness is getting to her," Lin Yu Yan said.

"Wh? Who are you!?" said the boy.

"Your grandmother's doctor," said Lin Yu Yan. She examined the grandmother and found that the poison quickly spread every time the boy was around because it was

"Hurry! If you don't leave, your grandmother will surely die!" shouted Lin Yu Yan.

"Des.h.i.+, do as she says!" said Quan Su Wen.

"I don't want too! I want to stay with grandmother!" said the crying boy.

"...Des.h.i.+. I know how much you love grandmother but she will die if you don't stay away," said Quan Su Wen but he wouldn't listen and wouldn't leave.

"Tang Hongwu, can you take him away?" said Quan Su Wen.

"Sister!" said Quan Des.h.i.+.

Tang Hongwu held the little boy and took him away. The little boy felt betrayed and was making a huge scene at the Medical sect. and was put into his room.

"Hurry and get these items for me and fast," said Lin Yu Yan to a member. They were common herbs so it should be easy to collect fast.

"Bingwen, please grab me a bowl. Wu Lang, get Meiying. Now," said Lin Yu Yan.
