Chapter 60: Ji Liuha's Relationship to Princess Hong Mei
On the border entrance of the Hong Empire, a little girl had casually slipped in. As a trained martial artist, her speed was even faster than the guards' sight. They did not notice and failed to collect an entrance fee on her.
She manages to blend into the crowd and soon arrived at the Hong Palace gate. Several people are flocking in, waiting for their turn to go inside.
"Hello Mister!" her original child-voice greeted the old guard as she handed the letter to him.
She looked at the guard with innocent eyes while the man examines the letter. Then the guard called a servant to accompany her.
"Your Majesty, Report! The Emperor of He Empire had sent a little girl." the servant announced as they arrived right outside the door where Emperor Hong Te is working.
"Send her in." another servant responded from the other side of the door.
Jia Liuha walks inside and bowed her head. Emperor Hong Te carefully looked at her and said, "Little girl, what business did Emperor He Mo is up to? Why did he send you here?"
"Your Majesty, I am Jia Liuha from Wulin Temple. My family has been killed by bad guys. I hope your majesty will give me a chance to work and stay?"
"This--" Emperor Hong Te peered closely, tilted his head, and paused for a few breaths before he continues speaking, "You could go to see my daughter. Someone, bring this girl to Princess Hong Mei."
Jia Liuha gestured a customary bow before a servant guided her out of the hall.
"The Princess does not want to be disturbed. You can wait in the garden and enjoy the flowers. She will attend to you once she is done with her painting." A personal maid told them when they reached the pavilion where Princess Hong Mei is living.
"Alright, this way little girl." the servant guiding her pointed the path towards the garden.
Jia Liuha walks animatedly behind the servant. Her eyes are everywhere. The flowers she sees were exquisite and the landscape of this garden is built in modern style. Jia Liuha could not help but gape at the view. Everything is arranged meticulously!
Meanwhile, inside the pavilion, Princess Hong Mei is just about to finish her painting. She gave a final touch of the brush on her canvas and a satisfactory smile blossoms on her lips. Even the personal maids behind are amazed by her skills in painting.
"Send this to the manager of the magazine." Princess Hong Mei instructed and stood up.
In the garden, Princess Hong Mei saw that Jia Liuha was alone and busy admiring the flowers. She cleared her throat and the sound instantly startled the girl.
As Jia Liuha snapped her head towards her, Princess Hong Mei's eyes widened. The familiar face of this little girl stunned her for a moment.
"Lui'er..." Princess Hong Mei softly mumbled and in deep thought.
The little girl in front of her is her sister! No, it is to say that the little girl looks like her former sister from the world where she came from.
When Jia Liahu smiled at her and Princess Hong Mei staggers for a little bit. She looked at her as the girl offered a customary bow.
"Princess, my name is Jia Luinha."
'How could it be? Did my sister also died?' she secretly thought of the possibility of how this girl who looks like her sister is standing in front of her. It is because she transmigrated into this world right after her death. It was Priest Wan Wen who first found out her secret when the priest saw her watch and recognized it as a time device in the future. After that, she had to keep her watch away to avoid troubles. She had been low-key as the priest also warned her not to make changes in this world to avoid destroying the balance.
Based on the majestic garments that Princess Hong Mei is wearing, Jia Liahu immediately recognized that she is the daughter of Emperor Hong Te. But she did not manage to notice the unusual expression of the emperor's daughter.
"Have you eaten?" Princess Hong Mei absentmindedly asked the girl. Her question is too random but it was not abnormal since it is already time for them to to eat their lunch.
Jia Luiha pouted and replied, "No, sister. I went here directly and did not buy food."
Princess Hong Mei internally trembled after hearing the girl calling her sister. She inhaled deeply to maintain her composure and looked at the sky.
The bright afternoon skies suddenly become cloudy and started to turn gray. Several birds are also flying probably giving a sign that the rain is about to pour.
"Come and join me."
The personal maid was baffled by Princess Hong Mei's action. She had been very aloof to other noble ladies in their kingdom but now, she acts friendly to her visitor.
The abundance of money in this empire can be shown on the dining table of the princess. Jia Liuha's big gulped can be heard by the people in the room as the servants served their food.
"There are plenty of foods. Don't hold back." Princess Hong Mei said as she started to pick foods on the table.
"Don't hold back, yes, yes, yes!" Jia Liuha echoed with enthusiasm.
The mouth-watering dish in front of her is hard to resist. She then started scooping foods on her plate and did not stop until it's loaded. Princess Hong secretly smiled, completely amused by her.
"You want to stay here?"
The little girl who is completely immersed in eating nods her head towards Princess Hong Mei.
"Do you know how to run a business?"
"Sister I am still young and I am easy to learn things. All my life, I practice martial arts. But I think I can handle business also." the girl responded.
"Where are your parents?"
"They are killed by the bad guys." Jia Luiha responded. The lack of emotions from her response made Princes Hong Mei wondered how this girl grows up.
