The Princess And The Lord

Lao Min Na snapped back from her daunting memory when she wears that dark green jade ring she returns to her fifteen years old again, she returns to her dilapidated courtyard in Lao Manor, her maid San Yu was still there too. However she is not the same person, one day she realizes she has a profound understanding of alchemy soon she becomes an alchemist with that she able to turn her body from waste to cultivator and she begins to cultivated ever since.

Using the darks space inside the ring her cultivation increase in tremendous speed and combine with pill and elixir not only she strengthen her body but she becomes more beautiful than before in the past, no matter how strong women is she knew beauty is woman greatest weapon so she sharpens her weapon as much as she could.

Everything went smoothly until one day Lazarus who had been quiet for years suddenly begin to talk again, he orders her to go to the back forest of the Lao Manor, he told her to find him, to find the man who will help her rule the world, that man is Zhao Li Xin. Excited she went to the forest in hasted but…she found no one, only dead corpses but Zhao Li Xin is nowhere to be found.

It was the first time Lao Min Na hears Lazarus roar in anger, he seemed to blame someone for interfering with his planed even until now she never knew who is that person that could make Lazarus so angry. After that, the day passed by and everything is normal at least as normal as she knows.

Zhao Mu Fan still try to seduce her, Lao Fei Yan and her mother try to harm her in every way, her father still neglect her and everyone still treats her like a deathly plague, however, she notices something is different, one day her maid talk about the Liang Zu kingdom, Lao Min Na frowned because she never heard about Liang Zu kingdom in the past, is it because in the past Jiang Wei kingdom never has relation with Liang Zu kingdom?

Then Jiu Yun sect, she knew about Jiu Yun sect the sect is not as big as now, Li Mo Zhen parents still alive but Li Mo Zhen is not as ambitious as now, he is like a deity who doesn't like involved with the common world, he rather spend his time with art sword and search for the divined sword, the rumor said he left his position as sect leader and went on a journey. Lao Min Na also never heard about Yang Xi Ying probably because she is influetial figure. However, the one who has tremendous change is Yuan Shao and Zhao Li Xin.

She though Yuan Shao would become the next emperor of Liu yan Kingdom after his sister dies but somehow his sister is alive, Lao Min Na already have a bad feeling about it, then she asks Yang Qiong Yang to killed Yuan Shao sister but once again she was failed, then Lao Min Na told yang Qiong Yang to rope Yuan Shao to his side, she still thought Yuan Shao might still have the ambition to become the Emperor, but who knew he would reject yang Qiong Yang offer.

Everything is different than she has expected, and Zhao Li Xin…

She thought he would notice her when she realizes she is not a weak woman as she used to be, she wants his approval, she wants him to see how smart, brave and talented she become. She wants to earn the same respect just like Bei Li Yan and Jin Hao, she wants to be someone who can talk at the same level as them, and maybe if she has his heart even just a little bit, she would feel worthy because Zhao Li Xin is the man who burned The Jiang Wei kingdom without leaving his chair.

Zhao Li Xin is the one who controls the kingdom behind the curtain, her hand reach every corner of the kingdom and also outside the Kingdom, one can only imagine how powerful he is, someone like Zhao Li Xin didn't need a wife what he needs is a partner and she can become one and she thought he would agree with her but she's wrong.

Although everything is changed however he still looks at her with the same disgust in his eyes, she doesn't understand what she has done wrong, why he hates her so much, and then Lao Ri Yi or to be exact Lorient appear.

Until this day she still refuses to admit that Zhao Li Xin gives all his heart and probably more to that woman, the freezing coldness in his eyes would melt whenever he looking at her, and the man who only knows how to spilled blood and killed would be so gentle in front of than one single woman.

Lao Min Na thought Zhao Li Xin would burn the Jiang Wei kingdom like in the past but to her surprised Zhao Li Xin only wrecked their economy for a few months and then he let go of them, she though his hatred to the Jiang Wei Kingdom as deep as the ocean, just like her he was also abused and humiliated through all his life, that kind of pained should not disappear easily, so where is the hatred, the anger…..the rage, WHERE IS IT!

Lao Min Na would never understand since she gives up her conscience when Zhao Li Xin mends his last conscience. The day he met Lory his resentment to the world gradually decreased, the whole inside his heart slowly filled, the man who had nothing finally learned how to cherish, to care, and to love wholeheartedly. In the end, Zhao Li Xin found anew purpose in his life.

This is something that Lao Min Na failed to understand, maybe because she gives up her conscience for Lazarus she had no ability to recognize the goodness in people, her heart can no longer hold love, she wishes to be like Zhao Li Xin and Lazarus fulfilled her wish. She does become the old Zhao Li Xin, empty and hollow.

_______________________________ 

A certain princess who has no clue how many lives she saved after she tamed the evil Lord I snow having a solo fashion show for the Lord. Zhao Li Xin sits on the chair with one hand pinching his chin he looks very serious and annoyed at the same time.

"Is this not good either" Lory whine tiredly while spun her body.

He shook his head "no the silver and blue only make your beauty more radiance, change it!" he waves his hand swiftly then three maidservants came with a new set of dress.

Normally Lory will be happy listen to his compliment but today she is furious "Li Xin, how many time I must change my dress" she shouts in upset "The vibrant color make me look youthful, the dark color make me look elegance and now this eye-catching color make me look radiance, should I naked instead!" Lory rest her hand on her hips, to coax the demon lord she let him dressed her, despite her independent character Lory is a lazy person, she doesn't want to fight with Zhao Li Xin for a small matter but now she regrets it.

In Zhao Li Xin's eyes, Lory is the most exquisite girl in the world and men would covet her if they knew how beautiful she is. Lory on the other hand only response with 'meh' and roll eyes. In her world no one court her seriously, most men only flirt with her which she's not taking seriously, well they are men and men like to flirt just see Fargo, one second she flirts enthusiastically and the next second he forgot completely about the woman.

Lory never believes a man's intention towards her, for all she knows when men get close to her, whether they are bored, drunk or the worst…he might know who she is and wanted to take her advantage, the last one is need a serious beating from her.

When it comes to this world she found the concept of beauty slightly different from her old world, they like clear skin without pores like a boiling egg, long smooth black hair, small face, delicate features, and when it comes to temperament, they like reserved, quiet and demure lady. 

That stereotype is quite a hypocrite, in her experience at Lao manor she knew that the Lao master and young masters like a woman with a voluptuous body, men like daring and coquettish women although they could never admit openly because this type of woman is considered to be too vulgar so they are not suited as a legal wife, the men in this world care about their image more than the two face politician in her old world. 

"Li Xin I attend the gathering with Ming Yue Yin and Yang Xi Yin, no one would care with me, and there are no men in the event so why you worry so much" her shoulder slump, why this always happened whenever she went alone without him.

Zhao Li Xin sneers inwardly, Sanguan Wu Ci annoying face appear in his mind, that damn bastar* obviously coveting his wife, if not because he needs to find the old map and worry to scared Lory with his brutality he would already gauge Sanguan Wu Ci eyes and burned him to dust.

"This is the last one, okay!" Lory scowled at Zhao Li Xin while the maid take of her outer robe leaving her with thin satin inner robes.

Zhao Li Xin tilted his head to enjoy the view. Thanks to good nutrition and comfortable life Lory body has returned to her old shape, after two years her body grow to mature she finally regains her old shape, the women from her world have more curvy shape compare to the woman from this world, her chest grew to a C- cup like before and her bottom is more rounded than the normal woman in this world, however, she has a small waist and lean body so the robes could hide her curvaceous body.

Lory feel a scorching heat on her butt, she caught her husband staring at her bottom, Lory only sigh she doesn't mind but can he be more subtle even the maids notice that their Lord is eyeing the madam with passionated gaze, the maids smile inwardly some of them is blushed, they would never guess their Lord who always been indifferent and cold to beauty would act this way in front of his wife, the maids have the urged to gossip about this with the other maids.

Finally, she dresses in dark fuchsia color and white peony embroidery, she used modest half bun hairstyle and silver hairpin. The dress make Lory look older than her real age, the dress does make her look serious and stern it should be enough but Zhao Li Xin thought Lory look regal and dignified just like a royal family in that dress, however, Lory refused to change her dress again.

"You finally here" Ming Yue Yin sigh, she's been waiting in the main hall for two hours, maybe Lory is the only person who can make her wait, Lory and Zhao Li Xin to be exact. Then she sizes up Lory from head to toe and she frowned "Why you dress like evil step-mother?"

Yang Xi Ying giggles, Ming Yue Yin words are right on the marks.

Lory give Ming Yue Yin side eyes "Ask your evil uncle"

"Oh, that makes sense" it's dawned to her what happened.
