“I know, I’ll think of something, do not worry yourself baobei.” Liang-Jin ran a hand through his long dark locks, his frustrated gaze set on the moon, the light reflecting back in his bluebell eyes. How beautiful this scenery was. Only if he didn't have so much on his mind.

Your days used to be calm, as peaceful as this night scenery and the lotuses dancing in the lake water at this hour. But it all changed when you met 9th Prince, Xuan Liang-Jin. He fell first, you fell harder. Since 9th prince wasn’t vying for the throne it wouldn’t be hard for him to marry whoever he wished. And yet there was still a problem.

The emperor had met you a few times and wanted you as a concubine.

And the fact that your family was overjoyed didn’t help Liang-Jin’s temper. How could they? You were his and only his.

“All you have to do,” He turned to you, cupping your face with both hands, his thumb tracing your cheek. “Is to promise me that you’d marry me. I can make it happen, even if it means throwing a bloodbath for you. I will remove all obstacles, even my own father.”

Xuan (宣): Proclaim, Declare Liang (梁): Beam, Bridge Jin (金): Gold, Metal Pin the first (this) message, always.
