Liam Drelavine : No Regrets! - Chapter 13

The Decree

'Days had passed since Ren Shou ask Li Amm's hand. Currently

Li Amm was peeking at her father's courtyard. She had a mission today. She just remembered that she need to sneak at her father's bedroom and find the mysterious scroll.'

''Where is it?''

'Li amm tiptoed and quickly went inside his father's room. She knew there were martial artist everywhere since it was a prime minister's house after all. So even her breathing was very soft and slow. However

she did not notice that not far away from her

on the branch of the tree

two guards were watching her.'

'"...." Guard 1'

'"..." Guard 2'

'"...did our young miss---?" Guard 1 could not continue the words he wanted to say.'

'"...I think so..." Guard 2 was also speechless.'

'They were assigned by their master Amm De

as a personal guard in the shadow of their young miss. Since their young miss got 'kidnapped' and introduce a husband

their master Amm De began to take precautions to everything especially the safety of their young miss and young lady.'

'Since they work from the De manor they heard about their young miss mischievousness and childish habits such as climbing the wall. But this.....they could not believe that their young miss was so mischievous to the extreme that she even sneak in in her father's bedroom!'

'What they should do? Should they report it?'

'Fortunately

a shadow appeared behind their back and told them.'

'"A servant from the fifth prince came. Be cautious." The senior shadow guard that appeared was about to leave when the two stopped him.'

'"Senior! We are in trouble!" Guard 1 said.'

'The senior became worried. Did their young miss got kidnapped?'

'"What is it? Speak!"'

'"O-our young miss....she.."'

'"She what?!" The shadow guard became impatient.'

'"S-she....she sneak-in in master's bedroom..."'

'"...."'

'"...."'

'"...."'

'After a long silence

the senior guard sighed. A sighed of relief. He then said

'

'"It's OK. It is a small matter."'

'"?!" The two guards were bewildered. How it was a small matter?! What if their young miss read an important information or ruined any documents?! Their heads would not be intact anymore!'

'The senior guard seemed to read their thoughts as he said.'

'"Don't worry

our young miss did extreme things in the past. Once

when she was eight

she sneaked in the master's bedroom. She wore our master's palace uniform and put a decree in the scroll with the prime minster insignia. She wrote : 'A decree for De's residence. Li Amm De would be the master of the house for a day!' She displayed it in the De manor's central court. When master Amm De found out about it he tried to stop her..but..tsk tsk.." The shadow guard shook his head. A small smile was playing on his lips.'

'"Our young miss used her charm and master Amm De could only do was agree. I cannot blame master. Even I could not resist."'

'"..." The two guard was once again speechless. So something like this happened in the past? No wonder their senior said that what their young miss was doing was 'normal'.'

'"Well

good luck to the two of you. I hope you can last." The senior patted their shoulder and left . But for some reason they did not get courage from what he said

they felt scared instead.'

''This. .what kind of extreme things will our young miss will be doing in the future?? Hope..our young miss will not bring more trouble...''

'Ohh ..how wrong they were.'

'Currently

Li Amm was opening each scroll one by one. After she checked all scroll in the desk. She sat on the floor.'

''Where is it?? It must be really important...where father hide it?''

'She looked around the room. She could not give up. Her curiosity was killing her. If she did not find it in the future

it might cause her to not be reincarnated in the next lifetime. She did not want any additional problem!'

'Li Amm creative mind imagined that her life in this world gone up and she returned the aboveworld. She imagined Old Meng kicking her off to another world saying

" You did not find the scroll in that life

it became your deepest regret that seeped into your soul. You should find it in another world.' And she fell in the world where cannibals who eat people existed.'

''No!! I need to find the scroll!''

'Then her gaze landed on the mat. In this room

the floor was made of wood. It was well flourished and the center was covered by a large mat. She noticed that the corner of the mat was folded a little. Then her eyes lit up!'

'Maybe!!'

'She quickly crawled to that place and held up the mat. As she expected there was hidden cabinet there! (A/n: you get what I mean write

cabinet on the floor xD)'

'She opened it. Scrolls

books

and the insignia were there.'

'Seeing the insignia

Li Amm winced.'

'Father must put it there because of the last incident.'

'She checked the scroll one by one. Then a scroll that was covered by a cloth caught her attention.'

'The curious Li Amm reached and opened it. After the cloth

it was sealed inside a bamboo container.'

'So secured! It must be really important!'

'Li Amm got more excited. She felt like a spy. If it was the modern world

it compared to those spies that was forcing to open a very secured safe.'

'Since she was doing a lot of things like this in the past few years

Li Amm was a professional. She was prepared. She get her pin from her hair and forcefully opened the bamboo container. When it becomes loose

a golden scroll was seen. Li amm quickly opened it to read.'

'When she read the contents she stared at it blankly.'

''What???''

''It's a big secret....'

''But I already know it.''

'She was a little disappointed.'

''Well

what can I expect? If I didn't hear their argument I'll probably be shocked.''

''But still! Where is the thrill in this?!''

'Li Amm tried to read it again. Maybe she could find a shocking information if she read it again. She could not believe that her effort earlier would be rewarded by this.'

'[A decree from the Emperor]'

'[For the peace and for the unified kingdom under the rule of Emperor Ren

assassination of the New commander

fifth prince

Ren Shou is necessary. This is the top-secret mission bestowed by the Emperor to Right Prime Minister Amm De. Reward for your loyalty after the mission is done will be given. The confidentiality is a must. If the mission is spread

Prime Minister Amm De and his household will be executed for treason.]'

'Li Amm rolled the scroll and put it inside the new bamboo container. She broke the original by forcefully opening it. Thankfully

she expected this to happen so she brought another one.'

'Li Amm went out while in deep thought. She totally forgot to tiptoe and be wary of her surrounding.'

''Hmmmm.....if father opposed to this mission

our family will die. But can father kill Ren Shou? My future husband? Father did not expect I will be marrying Ren Shou. And this emperor...why does he not do it?! Why use Father?! He is so lazy!''

'Oh....'

'Li amm stopped walking.'

''I know! Ren Shou said father betrayed his father

who is the Emperor's brother. Tskk....I can't hear quite clearly

but I think I heard Ren Shou say that father betrayed his father.''

'' 'Betrayed'. So it means that father Amm De was close to Ren Shou's father? How did he betrayed him? Geezzz....this is killing me.''

''But it meant one thing

the Emperor is afraid father will turn his back to him and change side to Ren Shou. So he made this secret decree.''

''Furthermore...''

'Li Amm remembered the day when the people warmly welcomed Ren Shou and his army.'

'If Ren Shou died

the public might rebel or demand justice for their idol's death. Then

father will be a scapegoat and will took the blame for satisfying the public outrage. Result : Execution. Not only him

but also his household. Including me. If that happened

I will be ashamed to show my face in front of Jack and Jill. And that Old Meng might throw me again to gate of regrets! I haven't found it yet. And I haven't completed my list for this life.''

'Li Amm bitterly smiled.'

''So troublesome...''

'She then looked to the direction of the imperial palace. She had this serious expression on her face.'

'Which made the two shadow guards not far away to break out on cold sweat.'

''Please! She's not thinking of doing extreme things in the future right? - guard 1'

''Somehow

her serious face make me afraid. Don't tell me...she is planning something? I hope it's normal'. Please let it be 'normal'. -guard 2'

'"Young miss Li!" Xiao Min was running towards Li Am with a scroll in her hands.'

'She breathed heavily and handed the scroll to Li Amm.'

'Li Amm took it and unrolled it.'

'" 27th of August

Ren Era under the rule of Emperor Ren Xiong Tin

Young Miss Li Amm of De household is invited to come to the new general

fifth prince's welcome banquet in imperial palace."'

'"Oh. Tomorrow. Xiao Min."'

'"Yes. Young miss?" Li Amm gave the scroll to Xiao Min.'

'"Prepare me a dress for the banquet."'

'"Yes

young miss."'

'Li Am smiled.'

''No matter what. I have to finish the list. And tomorrow is a big opportunity. As for this feud

let it go to the flow.''

'Li Am looked again to the direction of the imperial palace. Her eyes showed a tinge of worry.'

''I wonder how father is dealing this with the emperor? I hope he still sane.''
