The Western empire is considered the strongest than the empire in East, North and South. As the political and economical power of the Western empire is much more stronger and stable than other empire's it rule's over them. In order to raise their respective power the Northern and Southern empire decides to join their hand through marriage. The eldest daughter of the Southern empire Princess Ying Yue is supposed to marry one of the prince of Northern empire. As the marriage is supposed to happen before the new year she's summoned to the royal palace of the Northern empire.

As the princess departure's from the palace on a carriage with her personal maid 'xinxin' a few servants and several bodyguards who are hiding in the shadow to protect her from danger to the Northern empire, she encounter's assassination. All the servants outside and the shadow bodyguards get assassinated in a few second as if everything was planned perfectly. And when the assassin's are about to attack the people inside the carriage(Ying Yue & Xinxin) a tall figure with white robe, silky long black hair, smooth skin appears. It was so bright she could only figure out his face after a few min. The man fighting before her eyes was so fascinating she could hardly take notice of the environment around her. At last she couldn't take her eyes off him before she could figure out anything she faints on the spot due to excessive heat and when she regains her consciousness she was already inside the palace of Northern empire.

After having dinner and taking a bath she finally leans on the bed wondering about the things this afternoon. As she was really tired she couldn't think straight and decides to ask her personal maid early morning.

(THE NEXT DAY)

Ying Yue gets up early in the morning as she had to go greet the emperor and empress of the Northern empire. As she was considered the most beautiful and elegant lady on the Southern empire naturally she needn't do any make up.As there was enough time to chit-chat with xinxin she asks the question first;

Ying Yue: xinxin...?

xinxin: Yes, your royal highness. Ying Yue : Do you remember the man who saved

us the other day?

xinxin: Your highness, u mean the man with

white robe?!

Ying Yue: Umm...yes!

xinxin: If your royal highness is talking about

him then i guess after he killed all

those assassin's he just ordered his

guards to send us to the palace in

their carriage. I couldn't ask them

more as u were unconscious and i

was too anxious.

Ying Yue: Back to the palace u say hmm...but

how did he know that we were

supposed to go to the palace.

Ying Yue wonders if he knew her identity or it was simply a coincidence. Without noticing the time an eunuch from the palace comes knocking at the door announcing " The honourary Princess of the Southern empire is being invited to present herself in front of the emperor and empress so that we can welcome her in our empire" states the decree held by eunuch.

After a few arrangement's the princess Ying Yue proceeds towards the court full of ministers and official governors with the souvenirs from her empire.

Ying Yue enters the royal court of the Northern empire and greets the emperor and empress while making a slight bow;

Ying Yue: His imperial majesty, sun of the

great Northern empire and her

imperial majesty, moon of the great

Northern empire, Ying Yue wishes u

longevity on behalf of the Southern

empire.

Emperor: As expected of the renowned princess

it seems the rumors around are not

exaggerated at all. Today, we've

prepared a banquet to welcome u in

our empire. U are expected to join it

in the evening and at the same time u

can have some fun, familiar yourself

with the people around (Princes)

Ying Yue: It's my great honour to join in your

imperial majesty.

(A guard suddenly arrives panting nonstop asking the royal emperor the permission to announce the emergency news from borders. )

Emperor: Why all the fuss?! What's the matter...

Prime minister will'ya explain what

the fuss is all about...

prime

minister: Your majesty we've gotten the news

from borders asking for reinforcement

the refugees near the border between

Western and our empire are getting out

of control and our men are not able to

calm them down.

Emperor: What?! Didn't we send the money to

u officals to provide them for their

living, food.. huh??...then why are they

revolting again?!

Prime

minister: Your majesty, the funds for those

People were not enough according to

the officials

Emperor: Can somebody tell me how the funds

were not enough even though i

ordered to take the funds counting the

no. of people

( A person suddenly stands from the group of princes and goes in front of the emperor and empress)

(....) : Your majesty please calm down, according

to my investigation the fund for them

was not enough because the corrupted

officials were using the funds for their own

benefits due to which the people who lost

their houses and food were not able to

feed their family. A lot of people died and a

no. of people have been infected with

some unknown disease. If u would give me

the permission i would like to take some

doctors and an army with some food for

the refugees.

( The crowd whispers in a low voice: isn't he the second prince?...oh the unfavored prince..but isn't he supposed to be quiet and mediocre...it seems he's trying to show off how brave he is... Don't care he's just gonna die there. I heard the pandemic at the border is pretty serious it transfers from people to people many people there are infected and dying day by day....the second prince is just digging his own grave ...he really is a fool )

Ying yue on the side listens to all the gossip on the court

Ying Yue: xinxin, do you know anything

about the second prince(whisper)

xinxin:. Your highness, have u forgotten? At

the funeral of your older brother prince

Ning when u were twelve years old u

were crying and walking around the

garden and u suddenly slipped in the

pond at that time second prince was

the one who saved u...he was also a

close friend of pince Ning..After that

incident u would always hang around

the second prince until his departure.

Ying Yue: Oh! now that u mention it i can

remember him huh...I would always

follow him around but when he

disappeared..i fell sick my fever was

so high i was in great pain and maybe

after that i unconsciously didn't want

to remember the pain and had

forgotten him.

Emperor: Good good now that the cause of the

problem has been found i will give u

the permission to punish those

corrupted officials and hand u this

tiger token... if u can handle this

matter well a great reward will be

awaiting you .

Second

prince: I won't disappoint you your majesty.

Ying Yue:. Your imperial majesty, Please excuse

my interference but i would also like

to accompany the second prince .

Please grant me your permission

your majesty.

(Silence fills the hall.......................................)

Emperor: Cough cough... did i hear u right? u

wanna go to the border with the second prince?!

Ying Yue: Yes your majesty, i know that it's absurd, that i shouldn't meddle with the state affairs but all i wish to do is remove some of the burdens from your shoulder..after all i will also be one of the Northern empire's people some day. Please grant me your permission.

Emperor: But, I don't see any reason to send you out to danger...u should be aware if something were to happen to u while you're in our empire we won't be able to explain it to your family, sigh...

Ying Yue: I understand your concerns your majesty, even though i have little experience in medical field the pandemic at the border is similar to what happened in our empire during the war. During the war between the Southern empire and the mercenaries of the Eastern empire many men had to loose their life as the dead bodies were not handled properly many people got infected due to an unknown disease. It's written in the Southern empire's history that

as more than half of the soldiers were infected our empire had to face the biggest calamity. As the princess of Southern empire, I will be responsible for my own actions. My teacher was always researching to find the antidote, he wanted to remove the fear of being infected from people's heart even though he's no longer with us anymore ...in his last day he handed me over his years of research. As a disciple of my great teacher i want to be the one to finish this fear from people's heart...I wanna be the one to fulfill my master's dream your majesty.

(Silence fills the hall once again...)

(After a few second people start to whisper and admire the princess of Southern empire.

Without anyone noticing a man sitting in the one of the princes desk gives a slight chuckle)

Prime minister: Silence everybody, Your majesty why don't we give the princess a chance after all our empire's doctor are not familiar with this unknown pandemic ..it might be better to let the

the princess who is a lot more knowledgeable to handle this matter. As a matter of fact the princess herself is ready to bear the consequence of her own words why not just agree your majesty.

Emperor: Hmmmmm...(thinking)

Emperor: The princess of Southern empire Ying Yue since u are ready to face the danger to protect the people... I as the emperor of Northern empire give u the permission to leave for the borders and right to control the doctors as the head of doctor. As the one and only disciple of the great immortal Du Ge i believe in your capability and determination.

Ying Yue: I thank you your imperial majesty. I won't disappoint your majesty's and master's faith in me.

(All the people get excited to start the rumour about the things that happened in the morning court and leave one by one )

After everyone leaves the court only the emperor and his trusted eunuch are left on the court, the eunuch was wondering what the emperor was doing sending a princess to the border and asks;

Eunuch: Your majesty, can i ask why u would trust that little princess so much as to make her the head of the doctor and leave for the border?!

Emperor: sigh... It's not that i favor the princess and let her do as she wished...but because of her master that i.......

Eunuch: ....??( Doesn't know what the emperor is talking about)

(At the princess chamber)

Ying Yue finally returns to her chamber, when she's about to sit on the bed a 'knock knock' comes from the door;

Ying Yue: what is it, xinxin?

Xinxin: Your highness, the crown prince (Prince Ming) is here for some important matters.

Ying Yue: Wait for a few second i will be there shortly , until then serve him tea and cookies.

Xinxin: Yes your highness.

( After a few minutes)

Ying Yue: Your highness the crown prince of Northern empire please forgive me for not coming to greet you in time.

Prince Ming: No, the princess of the Southern empire please do excuse me for coming without prior notice.

Ying Yue: I heard that your highness has something important to say...

Prince Ming: leave the room everyone

Ying Yue: Nods the maid present inside

Prince Ming: Our informants have informed us that princess ying yue was attacked on the way to our empire...and we've found out that the one behind the assassination was none other than ...

Ying Yue: Your highness is well informed i guess.

So your highness do u want something from me or can i do something for u..

Prince Ming: Pfft hahaha...well as expected of the princess Ying Yue so straight forward ...today i am not here to ask for anything but to inform the princess that the one leaking about your location is none other than one of your maids.

Ying Yue: Hmm ...my maid huh, she seems to be the one on the second carriage....well it seems i need to clear out some disloyal ants huh...I shall remember your favour in the upcoming future your highness.

(Prince Ming leaves just like that with a slight smile on his face. )

Ying Yue: xinxin, come inside.

Xinxin: Yes your highness, what can i do for you?

Ying Yue: Gather all the maids that came with us to the Northern empire in the garden. It seem we need to clear some ants and show them who the real boss is
