'The emperor and the empress were stunned.'
'' Why the shadow guard?''
'Seeing the stunned expression of the two
Liam hurriedly explained some nonsense.'
'"Your majesty
this wolf you speak is a mighty general. This humble one just needed to see the difference in the strength of His majesty's shadows guard and the wolf."'
'The emperor and the empress finally get it.'
'The emperor nodded and spoke.'
'"Come out. "'
'A figure suddenly came out of nowhere and kneeled in front of the emperor. This figure was clad in black clothes from head to toe.'
'Liam was shocked for a moment. 'Shadow guard was really a 'shadow guard'?!''
'"I heed your commands
Your majesty." The shadow guard's low voice reached Liam's ears.'
''Eh
this voice sounds young.' Liam could not even saw the shadow guard's eyes since it was blocked by his bangs. Only a little skin was exposed. But from that skin
one could see how pale it was. Like it never saw the light.'
'The shadow felt the inquiring gaze of the lady beside him. But he ignored it. He kept his eyes down and waited for his mater's to bestow the orders.'
'The emperor looked at Liam.'
'"Lady Li
this is the shadow guard you are asking for. I have many of my shadow guards. You can borrow this one." The emperor was kind and generous today.'
'Liam doesn't really need to borrow the shadow guard. She just needs to wink at him. But since the emperor was so kind
she would not be polite and really borrow the shadow guard for a day. Maybe she would find some interesting things.'
'"Your majesty is so kind. One day is enough. I just need to test some strength of the majesty's shadow guard."'
'The shadow guard who had heard of it had an emotion flashed in his eyes. But it was buried deeply. A sentiment that any shadow guard should not have. It's the fear of what's unknown that would come to him. The young shadow guard was afraid that he would be tortured again by nobles. But those thoughts were never spoken out.'
'"You can do what you want. I give you my permission. But be at ease that my shadow guard's strength was on par with the general's strength."'
'The emperor then turned to the young shadow guard.'
'" Follow the Lady's wish for a day."'
'"Yes
Your majesty." The young shadow guard then disappeared.'
'Liam was shocked again. 'Can people turn invisible in this era?''
'"Lady Li." The emperor was called Liam.'
'"Yes
Your majesty. " Liam bowed again. She missed Xiao Mei
who would massage her neck.'
'"Is there anything you wish for?"'
'Liam had that awkward smile again.'
'The empress saw this and do the same thing again.'
'Liam looked at her gratefully then to the emperor.'
'"Your majesty
I am but just a humble lady. This was the first mission I have ever received from His majesty. This lady was a bit uncertain if I could really do this important mission. May I wish
Your majesty
to let this humble servant exchanged letters to Her Majesty to get courage and strength?"'
'The Empress was shocked. Presumptuous!'
'Who could dare request to exchange letters with her
the Empress! It was only this lady!'
'The empress was offended.'
'However
His Majesty doesn't think so.'
'He thought deeply about it. Translation in His majesty's mind that Liam said: Let me provide information and please guide me some steps to accomplish the plan through exchanged letters from Her majesty.'
'(a/n: this is not what Liam truly meant. It was all on this emperor's thought. )'
'The Emperor laughed. That's a good suggestion!'
'"En. We allow you."'
'"Your majesty!" The empress declined. She was an empress
after all. Her pride as an empress wouldn't allow her.'
'"My empress
this is for the empire'. " When the emperor mentioned this to the empress
the shrewd empress mind comparable to the emperor finally go along well with the emperor's brain wavelength.'
'Her eyes sparkled too in this suggestion.'
'"Alright
as the moon of the empire
I allow it."'
'Liam looked at these two strangely
who seems happier to exchanged letters with her.'
''Nevermind. At least I can exchange love letters with the empress.''
'The list was more important.'
''_write a love letter to the empress' would be check soon.'
'******'
'Liam was walking to her palanquin. She had a cold sweat on her back.'
''Shoot. I forgot something important.''
'Liam totally forgot about Ping Bi
who was walking to her side.'
'The moment the palanquin reached the De Residence
Ping Bi took out his hidden sword and slashed it under Liam's skirt.'
'"Eeekk!" Liam was shocked. A shadow quickly came out of her skirt and fend off the hidden sword.'
'The figure became more apparent. It was the shadow guard that His majesty let Liam borrow for a day. The shadow guard stands before Liam. His stance was defending her.'
'Ping Bi did not speak and attacked again with a dagger. The shadow guard was capable of defending and unleashing attacks as well. They parried and exchanged blows. It was so fast that Liam could not follow them with her eyes and saw blurred images instead.'
''Wow. Are these two humans?''
'Then she shook her head to focus on the matter at hand.'
'She had seen this coming when she saw Ping Bi the moment she had come out of the Empress' courtyard. She forgot his existence for a moment.'
'She needed to stop these kids from killing each other. More importantly
the two must not know each other's real identity. Or else more troubles would come later on.'
'The emperor and the empress were stunned.'
