Ladies' King 17 Chapter 16: Royalty Cuisine Part 6

Ye Jin who was walking around with the beautiful ghost lady to look for some information about her meets the Empress. When Ye Jin saw the Empress, he was astonished at the beautiful face of the Empress, he suddenly bowed, "Yun Lincheng greets the Empress!", he said.

"You don't need to do this when we're not at the throne room. Hmm...Yun Lincheng, right? How about you join me?", she asked with a gentle smile. Ye Jin also smiles and nodded, "Yes, I can join you."

When the Empress saw Ye Jin's smile she blushed but stopped herself, "You are a very charming man.", the Empress compliments.

"Thank you for the compliment, Empres-"

"Stop with the Empress...just call me Jie."

"T-that is...rather inappropriate. I am just a commo-err...I am just a lowly rank prince..."

"Hahaha. I know what my Little Ying is planning but I didn't expect she chooses you."

Ye Jin heard this, he was surprised and he know that Qin Xiuying is not suitable for him but he composed himself, "I didn't expect it, also. I just met her in a rather unfortunate time."

"I see...", the Empress mumbled, "Do you have a lover?", she asked out of nowhere.

"T-that is...Yes.", he said honestly.

When the Empress heard this, she was surprised, "This is bad...", she whispered but Ye Jin didn't hear her and asked her, "What's the matter?"

The Empress shrugged her head, "Nothing.", she smiled and asked Ye Jin, "Where do you want to go?"

"Err...can I enter the library? And can I ask you something?", Ye Jin asked

"Of course, you can enter and What is it?", she asked

"Do you perhaps know a princess from the Qin family with black obsidian hair and dull black eyes. She has a pet.i.te body and that of a young child...", he described while looking at the ghost lady.

"Hmm...Are you perhaps talking about the Black Blood Princess?", she asked

"Black Blood Princess?", Ye Jin asked and curious along with the beautiful ghost lady floating beside him.

"The Black Blood Princess, Qin Zexian. She was known for being merciless, domineering, smart and strong. They said that she is good when it comes to cultivation. She was the reason why the Qin family stand high and strong along with the Ye family. As I remember, Qin Zexian's body was store inside the Qin treasury. She was found in the Royalty Cuisine Restaurant and she died because of food poisoning. The poison was so strong that her cultivation can't stand it. ", she said with a disappointed tone, "It is pitiful that she died, I'm sure that she will become an immortal if she continued to live with the Qin family as an Elder. Why do you want to know this?"

When Ye Jin heard this, he looks at the beautiful ghost lady, "T-that is...because I feel like I knew her for a long time. I even dreamt of her but all I can remember was her beautiful face and the Qin palace. ", Ye Jin lied.

The Empress seems to believed what Ye Jin was saying and nodded, "I see...how about we go to the library, now? I also needed to read, since I haven't finished some of them. Do you also like to read books?", the Empress asked.

"Ah..yes.", Ye Jin said.

"Hmm... a young scholar. Follow me.", she said and started walking. Ye Jin followed the Empress to the library.

When they reach the library, Ye Jin was amazed by it. The designs of the books and a wide library!

'This is so awesome...', he thought and look around.

"It's awesome, right?", she said, "I like this place a lot...and my older daughter always read on this place but she has a different temperament. She's also engaged with the 'Ye clan', I thought she won't like being engaged with the 'Ye clan' but she didn't even retorted.", she suddenly started telling a story.

As Ye Jin was confused, he asked, "Why?"

The Empress lightly chuckled, ",I also asked her the same question and her answer was...'I saw him with my own two eyes, mother. He was extremely handsome but the way he carry himself is so good. He doesn't even get fl.u.s.tered when I saw him cultivating. He just stare at me with his own eyes as if piercing my soul. The mysterious prince of Ye Clan was someone I can love and care for.'. I thought she just like his face but she just shrugged and smile.",she said.

"Eh? Are they marrying the same mys—"

The Empress shrugged, "No...Little Ying is not marrying the mysterious crown prince of 'Ye Clan' but the subst.i.tute mysterious prince of 'Ye clan'. The crown prince is a very quiet and kind but the mysterious prince of 'Ye Clan' was from the branch family. He is arrogant and l.u.s.tful.", she explained.

Ye Jin who heard this just nodded and smile, "I see...I think it's hard for Princess Xiuying..."

The Empress chuckled and said, "Hahaha...fine, go and read some of the books here."

Ye Jin just nodded and look for some history books about Qin Zexian. When Ye Jin get all of the necessary books, he seated near the window. As he was reading someone sit's near him, he turned his head and saw a green gra.s.s hair with a golden yellow eyes. She look at Ye Jin with an interest while she keep her stoic face.

When Ye Jin saw her, he was astounded by her exceptionally beauty. He thought that this lady was familiar but ignored it since he doesn't even met her once.

"You...you look like him. Who are you?", she said

Ye Jin who can't answer this was confused and thought, 'Who the h.e.l.l is she talking about?'

"Qin Xiuyang...", she said and look at Ye Jin with longingly look.

"Huh?", Ye Jin who can't uttered a single word was confused! And realized that this lady was the first princess of Qin.
