One.

Lian hua sat by the pond her long hair touching the tip of the waters as she admired how beautiful her lotus pond was. She had maid servants who took care of it for her for days. "My beautiful lotus..pond." She said smiling.

Lian hua wore a red hanfu which was custom made by a Taylor. It was long up to her feet and it had red roses by each shoulder, and there was red lace wrapped around both of her hands. She wore a golden xiang lian (necklace)around her neck.

She had red shoes with golden specks and diamonds on the top of her shoes. She had a golden crown piece and golden pins in her long hair that dropped down at the bottom of her hair with a red flower in her hair.

As the princess of the hua realm (flower realm) it was appropriate for her to dress like this as always to show her maintained status. She was a kind hearted princess and nice to her people, however her father wasn't he was very strict and treated slaves like slaves.

Her father had no care in the world and he would want his daughter to be that way but she isn't at all like him she's more like her mother who had died in the war between the demon realm and the flower realm when she was just pregnant with her.

She gave birth to her in a tent and had died back then after just giving birth to her. Everyone was sad of her death lian hua the most she never knew anything about how her mother was like but she heard from many people.

"Gōngzhǔ(princess in Chinese) the king is ready for your presence at the main hall(court)." One of the guards said coming in and paying his respects by bowing and putting his hand in a fist on his chest.

It was their way of greeting people of higher status. "Thank you. I will be at his presence at once" he bowed and left. She stared at herself and her reflection in the water.

She then sighed and got up walking to the court as she walked by all of the maids who were there bow at her presence she smiled and kept walking until she was finally inside of the court.

When she was walking in the kings eunuch said out loud "the Gōngzhǔ (princess in Chinese) has arrived!!!!" Everyone greeted the lian hua as she walked in.

She took her seat as her father started to discuss royal matters.

Next to her sat the 3 princesses from the different realms. Shui nu of the water realm, xianu of the fairy land realm and shui jing of the healer realm.

"I've called you all here today to speak on some very important matters. You are all the rightful princesses of the different realms and clans..and it is only right that you all handle these matters." The king of the flower realm said

"Thank you for your praise wang(king in Chinese!" They all said bowing down. "My daughter will show you all around in the flower realm we hope you can enjoy your stay and rest easy." The king said smiling.

"Thank you for having us. We are delighted to be here after all this is such a magnificent realm." Said shui nu the princess of the water realm. "It is no problem at all. go and show them around my daughter." The king had said.

"Okay father right away come this way please." She said as they followed her around. "you're realm is so pretty..you're flowers remind me of what it's like back in fairy realm." Xian nu said. "I'm glad you like it."

"So...what's it like in the water realm?" Shui jing asked shui nu. "Well as you know being a half human and half mermaid is a special thing. I am very grateful for being able to walk on land and even swim in water. The waters are very different from you're realms I would show you all around sometime but it can be a dangerous thing."

"we would have love that. Sadly some of us probably can't even swim!" Xian nu said. "But however if you're willing to teach us." They all started laughing. "Yes we probably wouldn't mind well we have made it to you're manors." Lian hua said welcoming them in.

"If you all ever need anything our servants can tend to you so don't be afraid to ask! They are always here anytime you need them!" Lian hua said smiling.

"Thank you we appreciate it." They all said bowing to her. "Good I will see you all later!" She bid farewell to them as she leaves with her royal servants who were also following her around and her guard as well.
