Yu lang arrived at khitan safely with the help of her brothers' best friend shen yi. She didn't even realize that she was already in khitan until shen yi tapped her and helped her climbed down from the horse,
" your highness we've arrived at khitan, we are safe now" shen yi knew how broken yu lang was, he always knew her to be the cheerful and playful little princess. Who would have expected that their kingdom would be taken away overnight, khitan was actually not far it was just a days' journey so shen yi wasn't exhausted at all.
Yu lang looked around the whole place, it was actually very peaceful. It reminded her of her family how peaceful her kingdom use to be, she accepted shen yi's hand and climbed down from the horse.
"Yu Lang!"
Her uncle the chief of khitan already got the news off how his sisters' kingdom was massacred, he could have gone to help out but he was too late. The scouts he sent out returned with sad news, he only came out for a fresh air when he saw yu lang nothing could explain the joy he felt. He thought his sister lineage has ended but fortunately her last child escaped.
Yu lang was surprised when she saw her uncle, she was filled so much happiness, the tears she has been holding ever since finally poured out like a stream. She jumped into her uncles' arms, she was finally able to let down her guard and be relieved.
Yu lang was showed to her room and given new set of clothes to change into. Although khitan was not as big and vast as her kingdom, everyone here were so friendly; Yu lang sits on the bed and looked at the clothes..
Yu lang"...."
She was surprised by the kind of clothes she was given, then she remembered that khitan was not tang were females were supposed to wear sleeve dresses but khitan isn't so. The clothes she was given were all sleeveless, some had v-necks, some were off-shoulders while others were either crossed back or slitted dresses; Yu lang knew that from now on this would be her new home so she had to adjust to their living pattern sooner or later
So after taking a bath and changing her clothes with the help of a teenage girl, Yu Lang looked at the mirror and everything that happened to her started replaying in her head again; from how her father was slaughtered to how her maid committed suicide she couldn't help but weep.
Her Uncle fu zi walked in and told the maid to go out, he stood behind Yu lang and placed his hands on her shoulders
"Yu Lang, you have to be strong... your entire family is now counting on you to give them justice. you have to become powerful and to do that you have to wipe your tears away, crying doesn't solve anything it will only make you sick. Lang'er you are the last of the imperial Yu family, and your life will be in danger once they find out there is still a Yu blood remaining so from now on you will bear your mother's surname Fu and your name will become jiàn meaning sword, you will become the blade that will avenge the Imperial Yu family"
"Now wipe your tears my dear, you shouldn't cry anymore ok?" Fu zi added and stared at her reflection on the mirror.
Yu lang wiped her tears just as her uncle told her and continued to stare at the mirror.
TWELVE YEARS LATER
"Fu jiàn, were are you going this time father will get mad at you if you leave the house again." A young boy said worriedly as he pulled a Yu Lang who was now a grown woman by her pants,
Yu Lang grew up to be even more beautiful, her long reddish brown hair made her unique, she had a really glowing white porcelain skin and a small plump red lips, her lashes were full and long her eyes were as bright as the moon, she had a tiny mole Just under her eyes.
"Fu Chou, stop nagging me already... you don't have to go with me, just tell uncle you don't know where i am." Yu Lang said calmly trying to pull fu Chou's hands away from her pants
"No way, am not going to let you go anywhere without me!" He refuted and suddenly hugged her tightly
" you can't get rid of me, i will stick with you like glue!" Fu Chou added
Yu lang couldn't help but sigh, fu Chou was three years younger than her and he was the only son of her uncle. Ever since she arrived in khitan he has been sticking around her like glue and wouldn't let her go anywhere without him.
"Fine you win, i won't go anymore. Didn't you say uncle was calling me, you can let go of me now."
" I don't believe you, you said this same thing last time, but you still ran away" Fu Chou refused to let her go, she wasn't trustworthy at all.
" fu Chou don't push your luck, hands off right now! I already said i wouldn't go anymore, you want me to knock you out" Yu Lang threatened
It seems fu Chou felt intimidated, he let her go and pouted like a little kid.
"I think i need to threaten you more often so you won't pester me anymore" Yu Lang teased him as she smoothened out her crumpled clothes.
"Young mistress, the chief is asking for you" a young girl walked in and bowed slightly
" ok, let's go...Chou'er go back to your quarters, i won't run away today" Yu lang comforted him and walked out with the maid.
Yu lang was kneeling opposite her uncle who turned his back at her.
" uncle, you asked for me" Yu Lang said calmly
Fu zi, finally turned to face his niece; he has trained her all this years that she could now even defeat him in a fight. It wasn't easy for her at all, she wouldn't eat or sleep unless she has mastered a particular training, she was so determined to learn everything quickly. There was one time were she almost lost her life because she wanted to learn a type of martial art that required a lot of time but she wanted to master it quickly and almost killed her self but at the end of the day she still mastered it.
" Fu jian it's time" fu zi said will all seriousness.
