Zhang Yi Qing's POV
You know what's the crappiest part of being a neglected prince?
It is that you are the one who they will put in the first rank in the list to be chosen and thrown around to finish miscellaneous tasks that is not that crucial to your Kingdom and its citizen.
Their Kingdom is already flourishing in more than ways than its not and has a big potential to grow even bigger even without the other kingdom's help. But since this is also not a bad thing to do,he is kicked out in the palace to socialize with these dogs with his servant and few elders in his sect.
Those bastards doesn't even know who am i outside the palace. Hmp.
They even dare command me do something like this?
What a shame.
Even if you have the talent,without connections and power, in the end,you are still considered as a neglected prince that can be used from time to time.
The biggest example of these is this scenario,is him sitting here, inside a room full of leeches.
Fuck, i just wanna puke looking at those fake smiles and cunning eyes. They doesn't even know how to hide their greed and they expect to caught a big fish here?
Pathetic.
These kind of people are the ones i despise a lot. Especially those who looks gentle and modest but a scheming and blood-sucking bitch inside.
Well,why do i have to care for them that much? They are nothing but a garbage, commonly found everywhere. If only i can sleep,i will not bother entertaining myself in this hellhole.
That nightmare is still haunting me everynight.
....
I wander my eyes at the bloodied scene ahead of me.
The most important person in my life is lying in a pool of her own blood. Her fave is as pale as a sheet of paper and her body is mutilated in an unrecognizable sight with her limbs sprawled around detach from her body. My mother's body is impaled by dagger with stabbing and chopping marks across her sorry sight of a body.
She's already long gone.
To her right side is my 'Aunty' who is already at her last breath. Struggling to even breathe an mouth-full of oxygen.
She is looking at me fearfully and sluggishly point at me.
"Y-yo-you d-devil! Just h-how can you d-o this?! You a-re such a m-monster!"her hoarse and cracked voice break the silence inside this dimly lit and tiny room we are in right now.
"Guess why?" i playfully ask her before kneeling beside her.
I smiled to her maliciously before i stabbing her in her chest with the bloody dagger in my small hands one last time before beheading this witch and throwing it aside.
This bitch is so ugly. Hmp.
...
Present Time
I feel many eyes looking at my direction shamelessly. Just when will they stop? My torture chamber is unlively these days,maybe some of them will do.
Due to irritation,i force my head to move up only to be welcomed by a doe-like innocent eyes and a pouting lips. She has this curiosity lingering in her eyes as if inquiring to who's in front of her.
She's the only one present that is not looking greedily at me except those arrogant once. Others just doesn't make me feel interest even if they also look innocent.
After all,she can't be the only naive person in the world,could she?
She also has this aura that make me feel strange. Something that is not from the same league or plane i am in. Kinda weird but nah.
I decided to be slightly playful and raised an eyebrow to see her reaction. And I am not wrong to assume that she'll act like a frightened chick who is shooed away.
She look away shyly before turning to the lady beside her.
That should be her mother,i guess? Is she really that frightened by my actions? Well,who can not? I believe i doesn't have a gentle temperament and light aura. While have this plump cheeks and big eyes. She even has a pure aura unlike my dark one.
What a cute little puppy.
Interesting.
.....
To my luck,these bastards decided to do the most right thing in their life and choose to take their wrinkly faces away from my sight for a second.
They even decided to put us all youngsters inside a room so that we will not stray to far. What an excuse. They just want their kids to befriend big shots and suck some of their fortune or hug in golden thighs.
I doesn't really like these brats flooding my sight. They are idiots who are putting on airs arrogantly without knowing their own position and some are just too pretentious or doesn't give damn.
Well,it is not really that bad.
Since i already had the chance to greet and meet that cutesy little puppy,i won't let the chance slide through my own fingers.
Hope i don't just misjudge you from afar.
Let's now see how interesting you really are.

Crown Prince POV
After i spoke to father Emperor about my idea,he is momentarily baffled from my request. I suggested that the younger ones must be quiet unentertained from all the events and best to let them play together.
My idea is very childish but father Emperor unexpectedly agreed and talk to others.
Well,there are only a few scenario when i ask father Emperor's approval. And this is not a really big thing to ponder about.
Since the Emperor himself give them the idea,they just go with the flow and just said some few suggestions. For their advantage i guess.
When everything is all set and done. The younger generations, all stand up and walk excitedly to our destination. While im too busy thinking what i will say to Ling Xi when i coax this baby,im antsy to meet her already inside the room.
If only we can be alone but nevermind.
Just wait for me Xiao Xi.
Im coming.
