Chapter 9. Be patient on the road
Just the first day at the chunshi mansion, bai xue jian has found shocking facts about her husband. Never imagined that an imperial criminal would even target a foolish prince to be killed in order to block the path of leadership.
Tonight is the same as the nights before. Never could close my eyes nor fall into a deep sleep. The mind is unsettled because of the thought of the salvation of her husband Helian Qi.
Yes, since entering and living at the chunshi mansion, bai xue jian knows that prince xuan is being mistreated even by his own servants. No one respects helian qi even though he is a prince of wei's kingdom.
Now, when you gaze at the moon from behind a square window, inside you is full of regret. Regret for coming late. Bai xue jian thinks, if only he had arrived earlier, then this man who is so responsible in his life would have lived far better and respected by all.
The quiet midnight atmosphere, the moon in the dark sky began to dim, its light eclipsed with the clouds. Bai xue jian looks empty, thinking of everything that is still fresh, like it was yesterday.
Flashbacks.
Today is the first time bai xue jian entered the singing capital The seven-year-old was enthusiastic. From behind the horse-drawn carriage, he kept staring out of the way behind the small shutters that covered the curtains.
Not wanting to miss a single step of the sight during the stagecoach. His eyes kept staring down the street still covered with shady trees outside.
Well, not quite to the capital, but that seven-year-old girl's patience is not all that much to bear because of her fun. The father on the side could only shake his head at the mere whim of his excited child.
"Jian'er, there are still a few more hours to get to the capital. Go to sleep, and when we wake up we'll reach the singing capital," he said.
"Don't want to!" Bai xue jian answers firmly. No sleepiness occurred to her eyes. Even though he didn't want to miss every beautiful sight heading for the capital, he still wouldn't shut his dozing eyes.
After answering, bai xue jian gaze is pointed back toward the outside The curtains open slightly to see the gap in the outside view. Although it's not free but it's enough to satisfy his eyes with road views.
Bai Xue Jun is happy to see his happy little princess. At first, there was no intention of bai xue jun to take his daughter to the capital because the trip from jiang city to the capital took him two days and two nights.
He feared that her daughter would be weary of his long journey. Little did I know that bai xue jian is still so enthusiastic and full of excitement. It makes bai xue jun feel relieved and at peace because his worries are completely false.
Tuk tuk tuk ....
The horse's foot taping continues to be heard in bai xue jian's ear. She was always looking forward to arriving in the singing capital which was said to be filled with fun. A large, bustling city, surely, compared with jiang in the far reaches of the kingdom of wei.
Brak!!
"Aaa!! "!
All of a sudden the carriage slanted and there was a strange sound outside. Bai xue jun quickly pulled his daughter into the arms to protect her.
"You're okay, right?" he asked while hugging bai xue jian.
Hum hum hum The little girl with the jade blue eyes nodded. She gave him a look that told him she was okay and that she wasn't hurt.
"What's going on?!" asked the man with the title general to his men outside.
"Excuse me, general. The wagon wheel was damaged. We will fix it immediately," replied the driver who was controlling the train.
"Aa! All right!"
What can I say? Even if it doesn't work, just accept it.
Carefully Bai Xue Jun went out and got off the horse with his only daughter in his arms. The trip to the capital was forced to stand still as a result of this unpredictable interference.
Bai Xue Jun walks behind the horse carriage to see firsthand how badly the wheels of his vehicle have damaged. Still carrying her young, she saw clearly that a crack was made in the right wheel of the carriage and began to break. This considerable damage can only replace it with a new wheel.
"Dad, when will we reach the singing capital?" asked bai xue the little jian his father still carried.
"It's been a while but we're almost at the edge of the city," the man replied.
"Father, I want to get to the capital quickly. Let's go now, dad!" Bai xue jian began to beg for the father An innocent shoulder was beaten by him in order to comply with his request.
"Wait a minute, will you? The wagon must be changed first and then we'll be on our way. Jian'er is clever and would understand, so be a little patient, okay?"
Try to explain to the child to understand and still learn about patience. His beloved disappointed look on jian 'er's face did indeed hurt him. But to accept this reality was to wait until the guards had finished repairing the wagon wheel.
"Very well indeed" Bai xue jian. His face looked dejected and lowered his head. That fire just broke out of nowhere.
Bai xue jun, who held his child, couldn't bear to see his daughter's spirit gone. Quiver, quiver and quiver, are far cuter than this.
He twisted his brain to find a way for his daughter to lose her disappointment and wait. But bai xue jun knows his daughter's character very well. Jian'er certainly do not want to play if you are sad. The only way is to find something that interests him who can forget all his sorrows.
"Jian'er do not feel bad, huh? If I remember correctly, around this road is a river said to be magical by the locals. What if jian 'er went to look for his chariot ready?" said Bai Xue Jun.
"Really? Are there magic streams in this world?" asked jian'er to be more sure.
"Of course. It is said that the river is very beautiful, and the water is often used as medicine by people around it, for it cures ailments of all kinds," bright Bai Xue Jun.
Even though the story was all her writing, her curious daughter's face made her feel better. Bai xue jian had to lie about his own fairy tales in order to make his son sad no more.
"Okay. Put me down! I want to go see it!" Said Bai Xue Jian.
The flame that was lost has now returned. The very active Bai Xue Jian is elated again and is full of enthusiasm.
