"But, Princess... To reside in the Feng Clan is dangerous right now. They could go on war soon..."

Previously, The Emperor and Princess Ming had a fight. The Emperor wants to cancel his daughter's engagement, but the Princess has fallen in love deeply.

Just like every other girl, she fonds of romantic things. She loves music, love poems and cute drawings. Yet, none of any man who approached her had done those things. Perhaps all of this had something to do with her cuteness and small stature. They showed their strength and fighting skills saying they will protect the Princess whenever and wherever it is. But, Princess Ming doesn't need to be protected, she was strong enough to do it herself, there's also the Royal Family Army who will keep her safe at all cost. These men were no different from her father, they all said the same thing.

However, one man who was strong enough to overturn the mountain doesn't do so. He does not approach her as any other men did. Instead, he used her intellectual and gentleness to confessed in public. The Princess especially like romantic and surprises, she instantly fell for him. Yes, that man is Feng Ao Xiu.

Princess Ming was stubborn enough to clench to her engagement. The Emperor was concerned about his daughter's safety was as equally as stubborn. n.o.body wants to relent or give up, so the Princess runs away.

In the middle of the night, the Emperor found the Princess has gone missing. He almost issued an emergency warning, so he could rally all the army, including all the clans in Xiang Lan Nation to find his missing daughter. Fortunately, a guard of the Feng Clan reported to him of the Princess whereabout.

The Emperor was still worried, although it was safe for now, the Feng Clan would go on war at any moment. Moreover, The Princess was still an innocent little girl. How could she go alone to her fiancé's house?

Thus, it leads to this moment.

Princess Ming turned her head away from the head servant that her father has sent to check on her. The Princess does not care even if it is her father himself she would not budge. How could she go home, then all her work to run away and stay in the Feng residence will be for nothing.

"At least take some maids and guards, that way the Emperor won't be worried..."

"Qiao An doesn't need any guards or maids. Tell them to go home as well!"

The head servant wants to cry. The Emperor loves his daughter more than anything, so if he goes back without making any progress, the Emperor will kill him for sure.

Even the guards and maids behind the head servants were troubled. Their thinking was the same as the head servants.

[If we do not do our job, we will be killed by the Emperor!]

"Princess, please let us serve you!"

"The Royal Family Guards are better than the Feng Clan Guards, we will do a better job!"

"Us maids of the Royal Family know the Princess preferences better. We are the one who should take care of the Princess."

But, the Princess only gets angrier.

"Shut Up! Qiao An has enough! Get out of here before Qiao An tell father you're all trying to hurt Qiao An!"

In the end, the head servant alongside the maids and the guards were afraid of the Princess threat. They hurriedly scoured out of the house for their safety. No one else knows better than them, the highest authority in the Royal Family was not the Emperor but Princess Ming.

When you angered the Emperor, most of the time you will get flogged or imprisoned. However, if the Emperor discovers even a slight displease on the Princess's face, then the person responsible will be executed.

While standing in front of the Clan Lord Residence of the Feng Clan, they were talking to each other.

"What should we do now?"

"I don't know!"

"I don't want to die!"

"Head servant, what should we do?"

When one of the maids asked the head servant, the others also turn their attention to him.

The head servant was the most troubled one. How could he not understand, the maids and guards were asking him to sacrifice himself and take the blame. If he died as the only one responsible, the others have a chance to live.

"Wait! I've got an idea!"

The head servant shouted quickly. Then, he tells his plan to the others.

With a quick-thinking, he just saved his own neck.

***

Three hours later, a maid of the Feng Clan approached Princess Ming. She was none other than Jing Wu Chu, the maid who thought she's destined to be with Feng Ao Xiu.

When the Clan Lord suddenly announced that Princess Ming will stay here for a while but did not bring any maid, the head maid quickly selects some maid to serve the Princess. One of them happened to be Jing Wu Chu.

For Jing Wu Chu, she was destined to be together with Feng Ao Xiu by the red string of fate. But, Feng Ao Xiu's father, the Clan Lord doesn't approve of her status that he ignored her existence.

Now she knows why. It was Princess Ming, she was the reason the Clan Lord told her to forget all of this. The Princess wants to monopolize Feng Ao Xiu by herself. She was so desperate that she makes an excuse of running away from home all just for Feng Ao Xiu. By how desperate she is, Jing Wu Chu was convinced that Princess Ming was the one who told the Clan Lord to separate her and Feng Ao Xiu.

Jing Wu Chu considered Princess Ming as her rival. But every time she sees the Princess's face Jing Wu Chu smugged. According to her, she was still winning because she has slept with Feng Ao Xiu, while the Princess hasn't even touched him.

"There's someone here to see you..." said Jing Wu Chu. However, the tone she uses was not polite and not fit to talk to a Princess.

Overall Princess Ming was a cheerful girl, but Jing Wu Chu never failed to make her frown. Only this maid out of all the other that she doesn't like. The maid was unpolite and harsh, sometimes even ignored her. Although there's a guest for her, the maid doesn't even say who it is.

"Who is it? Who wants to see Qiao An?"

"Tch..." Jing Wu Chu clicked her tongue, expressing her dissatisfaction.

Princess Ming remembered that she threw out the maids her father a.s.signed for her, it's better if one of those maids could replace Jing Wu Chu. But she did not regret it, she was making her statement that she won't give up on the engagement.

Although she doesn't like her, Jing Wu Chu doesn't overstep her boundaries. The Princess can still put up with her, after all, she was only a guest here. However, when she marries Feng Ao Xiu, she will remember to fire this maid.

"Who is it?" The Princess asked one more time.

"It's, Ning Ruo"

"Big Sis Ruo!!!"

It was the head servant's idea. If someone could convince the Princess, it got to be someone she likes. Two of them were her fairy sisters, Yang Xue Yi and Ning Ruo.

However, they could not fetch Yang Xue Yi, the Yang Clan was in the same situation as the Feng Clan, they were busy preparing for war. The only option left was to fetch the other one, Ning Ruo. As long as Ning Ruo could persuade the Princess to go home or to take the maids and guards, they will survive.
