Valiant Princess

(Picture available on w*****d) Crown Princess Long Fenghuang (Dilraba Dilmurat) Everyone has noticed that the Crown Princess has drastically changed ever since she has wakened up from her month-long coma. A month earlier, the eldest princess had fallen into the Shuijing1 Pond located at the Huanying2 Garden where she nearly drowned but was then saved by her older brother, Crown Prince Long3 Dongji4 in the nick of time. Crown Princess Long Fenghuang5 is famously known within the 3 Kingdoms for being such a spoilt and bratty young girl much to the dismay of her imperial parents including her loyal servants as well. Never the one to listen. Never the one to act like a proper princess. Never the one to submit to anyone else including her own imperial father, Emperor Long Feng6. The reason that she had fallen into the pond is that when she bullied her younger imperial sister, Second Princess Long Hua7, as luck has it, the only son of the Prime Minister, General Bing8 Xiaji9, saw the unfortunate incident. According to his own words, he had pushed her without realizing that he was using too much strength back then. The result of his powerful push, she had fallen into the pond in front of the other young royalties and young nobles. Those who saw how far she was thrown off by that forceful push from General Bing Xiaji have mixed reaction regarding the incident. Some were happy. Some were shocked. Some were even scared knowing that the bratty Crown Princess has a very violent temper. Some were panicked and screams for help. When her older imperial brother heard the commotion, he immediately ran towards the pond. The perpetrator tried to jump into the pond, but the Crown Prince forcefully pulled the General’s arm to stop him, "This prince will save her. Move aside, General Bing…" before he jumped into the pond to save his younger imperial sister. Upon discovering what his son has done, Prime Minister Bing Xi10 deeply apologized to Emperor Long Feng and Empress Huihuang11, but the imperial couple does not put the blame entirely on General Bing Xiaji as they knew that their oldest imperial daughter is to be blamed for her 'accidental' fall as well. Both Second Princess Long Hua and her consort mother, Imperial Noble Consort Mei12, were scared but Empress Huihuang assures both them then that they too are not at fault for what had happened. The cause of the fall, General Bing Xiaji, on the other hand, still believes that the Crown Princess is wholly responsible for what had happened. For years, the Crown Princess is like a thorn in his flesh, so he feels somewhat satisfied and vindicated with her fall. In the near future, this incident will forever be remembered by him and it will be something that he wishes he had never done, ever. Though Crown Prince Long Dongji is angry at him, he did not say anything as he knew that General Bing Xiaji is quite influential with a growing number of supporters, and they, the imperial family, cannot afford to slight him in any way possible. But, it is not something that his younger imperial sister, Crown Princess Long Fenghuang ever care about as she is determined to do anything so that General Bing Xiaji will notice of her existence as is her existence is not noticeable by everyone else within the Kingdom of Long. The Emperor and the Empress are a bit angry too because, both the imperial family and the Bings have long decided that General Bing Xiaji will be the future husband of the Crown Princess, but he obviously never treated her as she should have been treated. They are contemplating whether or not the engagement should be officially announced when the times come. Speaking of the devil, Crown Princess Long Fenghuang has become a completely different person after the so-called ordeal. Yes, she is still not the one that will submit to anyone but now, she seems to be very distant with everyone including her own family members. She is staying in her palace and refused to go out ever since she has woken up from her coma. She is also doing her own thing in her own sweet pace without bothering the brewing stand-offs in between her imperial family members and her so-called future husband, General Bing Xiaji. It has been eight weeks since she has woken up, but she refused to meet up with anybody including her own imperial family members. Not that it will ever stop her own imperial mother, Empress Huihuang, from barging into Xuehua13 Palace at any time of the day as she wishes to do so. If there is one person in this world that the Crown Princess can never handle, that person would be her own imperial mother. After all, how could an ordinary woman be able to possess the same influence and power as the Emperor? Her imperial mother is much more manipulative and cunning than her imperial father can ever be. Everyone, on the other hand, is anxiously waiting to see what the Crown Princess will do next. The Empress has been doing her best to coax her daughter but gives up when she realizes that her imperial daughter, on the surface of it, seems to not care about the incident at all. She just stays in her palace, like a proper and well-behaved imperial princess that she ought to be. Days have gone by just like that in Xuehua Palace. (Picture available on w*****d) Example of what Crown Princess Long Fenghuang is currently doing. These days, the Crown Princess has immersed herself in reading books after she has woken up. By doing so, she has refused to go out of her own palace, she is busy reading is her answer when her imperial parents instructed her to greet them. When her older imperial brother wanted to meet her, she instructed the imperial guards to lock the main gate of Xuehua Palace. This has made her older imperial brother so affected that he had run away from the imperial palace to meet up with his beloved fiancée, Lady Mu Dan, who is stationed to guard the outskirt of the imperial city just so he can complain to her about his ‘unlovable’ younger imperial sister. When the Emperor heard about this new development of hers, he is happy as long as she is no longer creating trouble in and outside the imperial palace. He smiles lovingly while thinking about his beloved older imperial daughter while instructing his eunuch to instruct the imperial library to continue sending his beloved imperial daughter variety of books for her to read on. ********************************************************************** 1. ** Crystal 2. ** Welcoming 3. * Dragon 4. ** Winter 5. ** Phoenix 6. * Wind 7. * Flower 8. * Ice 9. ** Summer 10. * West 11. **************. **************. *************
