Chapter 5 - the match

Xiaoyan's blur vision cleared. She sat up while her head was hurting. When she was finally able to see the surrounding properly, she was more than amazed. It was huge room with red and golden decoration. She was still seeing around when two women entered the room. They were wearing green colour cloths with a white silk mask. They bowed in front of Xiaoyan. One of then who was taller than the second said "Young miss, please choose a dress from these." As she said several of the same clothed women came, each having a dress with unique colour and texture of the cloths. Xiaoyan was shock but she didn't dare to act carelessly in is unknown place. She sighed and politely asked "Can you please tell me what place is this?" "The crown prince's palace." Said the second maid who came with first. "Who brought me here? Perhaps it is your crown prince?" "Yes. Young miss, it was his highness who brought you here." Xiaoyan sighed again.

She knew that the man back in the cave was certainly not a normal person. But she had not expected him to be a crown prince. She thought he must have been a high cultivator or a court officer or perhaps a general of a hidden unit. While she was still thinking a maid pulled her from the bed and said "If young miss can't decide we will see which one will fit you the best. Anyways you have nice body and smooth skin, young miss" she said as the other women's eyes filled with excitement.

They tried new dresses for like one to two hours. They only went to pink to green to red all the colours that Xiaoyan was able to imagine. Just as she was tried and was about to say they to stop. One of the maids said "This dress should fit young miss the most!" It was a red dress with white texture. It was more like a wedding dress to begin with. Xiaoyan sighed and said "This is the last one I will try." And like that she grabbed the red dress and tried it on. Well, the maid was right it was stunning. Like it was made for her. The silk hugged her body neatly and beautifully and she herself could not believe that a dress would fit so perfectly for her. When the women saw the look, they were very please and praised Xiaoyan endless until a man came into the room.

He was most likely a servant under the crown prince. He bowed in front of Xiaoyan and greeted her. After a few conversions between the women and the servants. Servant bowed in front of Xiaoyan and said "Please come this way young miss." Xiaoyan followed the servants. They led her to multiple palaces first. But not to exaggerate the palaces were stunningly beautiful and glorious. No one could actually rival its beauty. Their final destination seemed to be the court room. Even the court room door was stunning and beautiful. Xiaoyan was not an idiot that she didn't realize until now that she is in Royal Palace. And the door in front of her is actually the entrance to the royal court room. Xiaoyan took a deep breath. Inhale and exhale. She chanted in her mind. She knew that there is going to be a whole new level of drama if the royal court is involved in it. Plus, she was basically kidnapped by Crown prince and brought here. Which was not common either.

The gates to the royal court room opened. There were tons of people inside but the few that she could recognise was the crown prince, who was with her yesterday night. General An with Jinxiao and her mother and father. Plus of course in the centre the highlighted emperor along with his empress on the left side. She entered and bowed in front of the emperor like the servants. The empress smiled and said "Jun Xiaoyan can you please come forward?" "Yes, her majesty." Xiaoyan said. She came forward and bowed again. "Rase your head, daughter." Said the emperor. Well, isn't it overly affection? But Xiaoyan just gave a beautiful fake smile and rase her head. When she clearly saw the crown prince who was sitting next to the emperor.

She knew she was cooked....

The sighed was deceiving but she wished she has seen wrong. The crown prince and she was wearing a couple's outfit!! While Xiaoyan was still not woken up on her daze the other people present of the room began walking between themselves. Well, it was not true that every one's eyes have read it wrong could it be!? At the face of the commotion the crown prince who was wearing a dark red silk mask was smiling. Xiaoyan just flinched when she saw crown prince's eyes. It was mischief perhaps. That was visible in his eyes. And not to ignore the fact that the royal emperor called her 'daughter' in front of the whole court room. Xiaoyan sighed and she knew that this will of course create a good topic for the court officers to talk about and even bid at the fact that Xiaoyan and Royal crown prince id together.

Xiaoyan for the first time in her life saw what really disgust means. She was purely disgusted with the atmosphere here that was for no doubt. "Silence!" the emperor spoke. Which of course made the entire court turn pin drop silent. "We will start with the heritage rights of the Jun house to Jun Xiaoyan, the granddaughter of the previous head. Who all are against her." There was barely anyone. Of course, how could they be against when they even didn't know who Jun Xiaoyan was! It was true that they didn't know but considering the atmosphere where no one would deny that Jun Xiaoyan at least holds some power.
