His Majesty's Hostage Chapter 13

Chapter 13

“Fwah——” Zi Li pried the hand off his mouth, “Ming Yue, Chun Lan, you girls scared me to death! Ah! How did you know I’m here? Also, why am I here?”

“Shhh——please be quiet your Highness. It’s more urgent that we leave here quick!”

And thus, this group of three of master and servants rushed in m.u.f.fled steps going back to the prince hostage’ palace hall.

From what Ming Yue and Chun Lan have come into conclusion to up to their plan, Zi Li can’t help but soak in cold sweat. Fortunately the two girls did not successfully carried him to the Cold Palace. Just thinking about it made his teeth chatter. If ever he finds himself lying in a frightening place on a dark forest, he won’t be just scared to half death, heaven knows what he’s most afraid of are ghosts and eerie places teeming with haunted energy.

“Anyway, we succeeded through a streak of luck! If not, he’s highness won’t recover from his illness this fast!” Ming Yue’s heart relaxes and smiled as she speaks.

Zi Li did not comment on that and just shook his head as he said: “Not only millions of my brain cells died from being scared to death, I offended him again this time as a result.”

Ming Yue and Chun Lan glanced at each other.

Zi Li’s mood was heavy as he climbed on his bed, the events that happened to him today sapped all of his energy. After knowing himself what kind of place this is, he was more determined to have little interaction with the emperor as possible. Once the people forgets his presence, then he’ll use that opportunity to escape from the imperial palace, and discard this original body’s ident.i.ty, then live his life among the common people as if he’s a commoner. But the situations that kept happening to him actually betrays that aspirations of his. Not only that emperor who’s a seme[1] noticed his existence, but he also don’t know if he’ll live or die after his character is exposed to be completely different to the original owner of this body. Thinking about it, it won’t be difficult for the others to notice as well and give rise to suspicions!

-T/N: I know most of you knows it by heart already, but for those who don’t, seme’s are those who pitches in BL couples.-

“His highness is surely tired, so Ming Yue and Chun Lan shall excuse ourselves. If his highness have a request, just call out for us.”

“En.”

Seeing Ming Yue and Chun Lan leave, Zi Li also closes his eyes. Even though he is very tired, but no matter how long he tossed around, he still can’t sleep! His imagination running wild on how that person will collect the debt from him, or what that person will do to him! Thoughts of different ways to die surfaced in his mind, making Zi Li violently shiver.

He sat up, and got off his bed to get himself a gla.s.s of water.

He can’t stop himself from sighing deeply.

When he sighed again, he can’t refrain from feeling ridiculous.

When did I become this so emotional and worry-wart?  What happened to that strong-willed and annoyingly carefree Su Zi Li who nowadays became a person who constantly sigh?  Could  the reason be because I changed bodies?

Zi Li was thinking, that he hasn’t look himself into a mirror yet and scrutinise his current face. Honestly speaking, he was dissatisfied. This vessel is excessively delicate and graceful, its figure is also thin and feeble, that he can neither carry nor lift. And just by running a few paces on the road, he is already gasping for breath. This body wasn’t even comparable to the one he had on those years of him playing basketball and working out, just one push and this body will collapse. In conclusion, this body is too girlish!

Zi Li was once again full of remorse. He then crawled back to his bed and forces himself to go to the land of dreams!

The next day, Zi Li was still in a drowsy state when his body was suddenly flipped up and pa.s.sed along like it’s a matter of life and death just to get him off the bed. Anxious and frightened maidservants surrounded him and dresses him in proper clothes. Later on, around hundreds of eunuchs pa.s.ses by the corridor and went their way towards outside the emperor’s imperial study, waiting for their summon.

In an exact hour they stood in their stations, several seemingly big shot officials came out, then several tall and st.u.r.dy military officers went it. Afterwards, several officials and military officers both came out, and several people of unknown status came in, then came out——

In and out, in and out, Zi Li don’t how many more people before his turn come. Zi Li felt like he was a weather vane, standing foolishly and staring blankly, and being swayed left and right by the wind people pa.s.sing by brought with them as they ignore him, ignoring him as they pa.s.s by and ignoring him as they left ——

Finally, an echoing voice calls out:  “Requesting his highness the Third Prince of Bei Ling to have an audience with the Emperor!”

Zi Li’s stomach churned as he inwardly curses: f.u.c.k! This emperor love playing evil tricks. So without knowing if it’s luck or disaster that’s waiting for me as I crank my head thinking foolishly, he’s testing my psychological capacity whether I can bear it or not! This Lao Zi won’t be fooled! I can see what you’re trying to pull!

Bonbon wanted to say:

This novel’s chapters are so short but full of a.n.a.logies! We’re in the same boat Zi Li…. Million of my brain cells died as well!

I love how Zi Li’s compet.i.tive but naive nature cranks up against the mightiest character in this novel~
