The knot that could not be un-knot

'"Come here

my daughter

introduced yourself."'

'Li Amm looked at those depressed face. She sympathized with this man who looked like his world had been taken away from him.'

'"Yes

father." Li Amm stepped forward. She was about to bow down when she heard a sharp voice in the corner.'

'"You are greeting the mighty Emperor and Empress with a veil on your face? Are you mocking the sons of god?" The crown princess asked loudly.'

'The crown princess could not believe that Ren Shou

that beautiful and astounding man would be given to this unknown lady. If Ren Shou has just gained a higher status than the crown prince

this crown princess was sure that she would be the one who would marry the gorgeous Ren Shou.'

'Too bad

she was already a crown princess and she would never give up the status of the future empress. She could not marry Ren Shou anymore. But that doesn't mean she would allow any wench to fly around on Ren Shou.'

'The crown princess was sure that no one could be above her in terms of beauty. If Ren Shou saw this lady's true face

Ren Shou might change his mind and would like her only.'

'She might not get his body

but she must get his heart.'

'The people all looked at Li Amm's face that was covered by a veil.'

'When Li Amm heard the crown princess' words she was so happy. She could finally get rid of this cloth! She could finally breathe freely!'

'"This lowly servant doesn't dare. For the flower of the Kingdom

I am willing to take off this veil that preventing His majesty and Her majesty to have a glance at this poor appearance of mine."'

'The audience looked at Li Amm with different thoughts and expressions.'

''Flower?' The crown princess who had been called a flower was stunned by this compliment. She turned a bit happy and did not let go of this compliment.'

'"You're right. I am the flower of the kingdom. Since you're going to be our dear gege's fiancé

it's good that you listen to my words. "'

''So take off your veil and show your ugly face in front of everyone.' The crown princess became more confident as Li Amm mentioned that she had a 'poor appearance.''

'"Yes

Your Highness."'

'Li Amm was excited to do that. However

the two men

Ren Shou and his father was not happy. For them

it was like stripping Li Amm naked in public.'

'(a/n: really??? Then are you naked too?)'

'They watched worriedly as Li Amm slowly reached out her jade-like hands to the back of her head. They waited with sweat on their forehead as she un-knot her veil. One moment passed. Two minutes passed. That's when they realized that Li Amm was taking a long time to un-knot her veil.'

''Wtf! I can't untie it! Xiao Mei! You idiot!' Li Amm had been struggling for a while. Her arms were going numb.'

'All the people who had been waiting for a spectacle "…."'

'"Umm..help?" Li Amm finally gave up. She could not figure out the knot that she could not see.'

'Ren Shou came to the rescue.'

'He gently massaged Li Amm's arm first then tried to unknot the veil. But when he saw how complex the knot was

Ren Shou who had a hidden knife under his robe unsheathed it and 'slash'.'

'A bit of flock of long hair fell on the ground alongside the veil.'

'Xiao Mei's hairstyle that took two hours to make was gone to waste. Some ornaments for hair fell on the ground.'

'Clang. The sound of an amber jewel meeting the ground resounded in the hallway.'

'But no one noticed that sound as they were captivated by the beauty in front of their eyes.'

'Like her jade arms

her flawless skin radiated under the lantern's light. The cinnabar on her forehead gone along well with the color of her lips. Her beautiful eyes were demanding attention partnered with that little but flawless face.'

'The lady in front of them was so beautiful. That every man and woman has to become speechless for a while.'

'Even though that woman had a frown on her face and was cursing in a language they couldn't understand.'

'"F@ck!" Li Amm cursed in English.'

''The jewelry! Ah

that's a real gem!' The ornaments on hair fell down and rolled down on the floor.'

'Ren Shou sighed and could see the distress of Li Amm. He picked up all the ornaments that fell and even the flock of her hair that he cut. He somehow understood her character that she gives importance in small things. For example

paying the old man from before.'

'"I'll keep it for now

don't worry." He arranged Li Amm's messed hair and combed gently.'

'This brought another shock to the onlookers.'

'The scary general could actually be gentle on a woman?'

'The crown princess who was shocked to see a peerless face was swallowed by envy and jealousy.'

'The crown princess was the daughter of the left prime minister. She was engaged to the crown prince since young. However

it does not stop her from seeing the beautiful boy who was a loner and hide from them whenever they faced him. The crown princess thought that with Ren Shou's elusive to women

he would not be married early. Or when he married

the couple's relationship would be estranged.'

'But this!'

'Seeing Ren Shou act so gentle made the crown princess see blood.'

'However

the emperor was so happy that Ren Shou seems to like this knife that he gifted to him.'

'~short episode~'

'Xiao Mei who was cleaning Li Amm's room was humming a song.'

'She made sure that her young miss would not be in trouble for a while.'

'She remembered their Master's order.'

'"Made sure my daughter would wear a veil. The last thing I want is the crown prince or the emperor asking my daughter's hand."'

'Xiao Mei followed her Master's orders.'

'She made sure that her newly invented so-complex knot would not be unknot easily. She was sure of that. Because the only thing that it would come off was by cutting it off.'
