"young master, young miss.time for you lunch" one of the maidservants called out.
*giggles giggles*
giggles were heard as the little boy and girl were playing.
"hey Horus, suzhen.stop troubling aunt Lorena. let's go have our lunch" a lady approached.
she wore a fairy hanfu,thin lips,grey eyes and long dark hair touching her shoulders all the way down to her waist decorated with hairpins.
the little boy and girl run towards the lady and hugged her legs "mother, we've been playing with aunt Lorena" said the girl.
the lady who seems to be their mother said "to the dinner table you two,the food will get cold"
the maidservant kowtowed "please accept my apologies, my lady"
"Lorena, please get up.its not your fault" the lady turned to her kids and continued "these two don't seem to get tired" she excused the maidservant and headed to the dinner table, followed by Horus and suzhen.
The story begins in the Wang. Duke Li Tai zhong and Duchess Li Feijing gave birth to twins, Li Horus and Li suzhen. the duke and duchess are from the East side of the empire ruling their dukedom.
Li Horus and Li suzhen were 7 years old.Li Horus was the oldest child seconded by suzhen.
------------------
after having a delightful lunch, Duchess Feijing sat in the pavilion while watching her kids playing around the huge garden "Horus, suzhen. please be careful, don't want you to vomit" she warned.
The duchess loves seeing her children playing,she wonders were they get all the energy from.
she turned to Lorena and said " go get some snacks please" she then took a sip of her oolong tea.
"right away, my lady" Lorena bowed and headed towards the kitchen.
the duchess turned to her kids who were playing tag and giggling.
they stopped and run towards the duchess and pleaded "mother, please come play with us" they look so cute, how could she say no to her babies. after so much pleading, she agreed.
the kids run and the duchess caught.since the garden was big enough for them to play as much as they liked,she didn't have to worry about them getting bored.
-----------------
"mummy,these Lily cakes are delicious" suzhen said as she stuffed her face with cakes together with her brother and they also drunk one of the Duchess's brewed tea.
"eat slowly or you'll choke yourselves" the duchess wasn't surprised about them eating too much, because she is raising gluttons.
the twins were eating until someone approached them."my wife and kids, I'm home"
upon seeing the man,the kids run towards him.he bent down on one and opened his arms,ready for a hug.the twins hugged him and he kissed their foreheads and the twins kissed his cheeks.
The Duchess looked at her husband and kid but when she looked at the sunset it was early for court to end." you came home early today"
The duke released his kids from his embrace and went straight to hug his wife."court today ended early and I didn't have much work to do" he hugged the duchess from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder and looked at the kids who were now seated and continued eating snacks.
The duke was the prime minister of the empire and the emperors advisor.the duke and duchess were happy to have their to have their children.why wouldn't they? Horus loves reading books, suzhen was as intelligent as her brother but she never enjoyed reading books.they both love horse back riding, sword fighting, martial arts, archery and hunting.the only difference is that suzhen loved adventures and danger but Horus is the type to stay in doors- far away from danger.
------------
The day went by and it was night time.everyome ate dinner before going to sleep.
------------
Suzhen had a hard time finding sleep so she jumped out of bed and walked towards the window side and looked at the full moon.the moon was so bright hiding the darkness while the stars shimmered all over the sky and made their home there.
"what will my future be?" was the only question she had in mind.she smiled at the moon and run towards the kitchen to grab a bite of the duchess's delicious Lily cakes.
