To the Palace

Standing in the doorway for some time with the woman he loved in his arms and his head resting on the top of her hair, Hui Yue felt true bliss in his heart. Though, at the same time, he also felt the utmost guilt about what had happened with Sha Yun. Letting go of Wang Ju Long while sending a smile her way, he finally released her and started moving towards his own room. He still needed to wait for the princess to summon him.

He had previously sent a letter to her, stating that he wished to meet with her. However, it was one thing to wish to meet with someone from the Royal Family, and quite another to be granted an audience. When one wished to meet the Royal Family one would have to wait for them to set the time and place.

Although Hui Yue was aware that the princess would send an invitation to him fairly soon, he also understood that he needed to wait. Despite his impatience, he spent the time learning more and more wu wei martial arts.
