Wendy laughs, “And how could you know that? It may from other women, who feel lonely here sp they will bring a man to sleep, which is normal. But the thing is how could they so dumb to ask a guard to do ti??”
Sen pauses, “Make sense, but why they chose the hard way? I saw they passing from the side door then to the small valley, and he looks like those people who sing opera…”
“Then maybe he’s here for performance??” Wendy gets a little interested now…
“But why he needs to come secretly??”
“Anyway, it’s not our business, Sen. Go bring Coral and Donkey for me, will you??” Wendy laughs.
Sen nods and out. Wendy sits back to her chair, but feels unsecured. Her right eyebrow is jerking a lot. She doesn’t eat much for dinner, her maid seems worried, “Concubine, are you okay? I can cook you something else? What about sour plum soup? It’s good for your stomach.”
“It’s fine, just some tea, please!” Says Wendy.
Soon, Coral and Donkey is here with Sen, “I heard the King would sleep with Princess Belle tonight, you are safe now master.” Coral jumps onto Wendy’s lap, happily, them bites her shoes and dress. Wendy rubs them in a good mood, “That’s fine, I don’t care who he sleeps with, hah…”
Unexpectedly, Donkey heehaws twice, Wendy’s face changed, “Sen, I need to stay alone, you may wait for me outside.”
Sen walks out. Wendy listens to her donkey carefully, “Say again!”
“The Royal Empress is in danger! Go to her now!” Donkey heehaws to her.
Suddenly Wendy recalls Sen’s words, that secret man, maybe the King is thinking to blame her on… My god!! She can’t sit anymore, she jumps out, Sen stops her, “What happened??”
“Go with me to the Royal Empress! She is in danger!”
They walk out to reach the Royal Empress, then stops by the guard Ziba. “Where do you go, my Concubine?”
“Move, it’s not your business!” Sen orders.
Ziba sneers, “The King said, there’s an assassin here, so he asked me to stay here to protect you!”
“Move, how could you stop the Concubine like that??”
“I’m not, I just warn you, my Concubine, if you get out of here, I don’t know the King will blame or not.”
Suddenly, another guard runs by, “Concubine!” Turning to Ziba, “I have checked everywhere but the Royal Empress! Do we continue?” Ziba yells, “Why not?! Keep searching! If anything happens to the Royal Empress, you and me we will die!”
Wendy turns to Sen, “Seems like there is an assassin here! Let’s go, I will meet her tomorrow then.” Wendy gives Sen a sign to take action right away!
Sen nods then jumps onto Ziba, kicks his chin and knocks him down, “This is for being rude to my master!” Then she takes her sword out and making a swirl with the leaves on the ground, like a magic realm, all guards in a fuss, they can’t see anything but Wendy’s words, “Let’s go!!”
“Lucky you! No more next time!” Sen says then disappears with Wendy.
