On the way

Bai Ju looked at Bai Rong through the window. Bai Rong smiled at her, then looked at General Luo. General Luo Chih-ming bowed and they all took off. Bai Ju brought out the bracelet Bai Rong had given her, she wore it and caressed it. She suddenly heard the same strange voices in her head.

Voice: Go to the palace of glitz, go to the palace of glitz, go to the palace of glitz.

She held her head and groaned

Bai Ju: What's wrong with the palace of glitz?

HOURS LATER

Bai Ju looked out through the window and saw a flowing stream. She looked at the guards and the maids.

Bai Ju:(thinks) They must all be tired (shouts) Stop the carriage

Chih-ming:(signals to the guards to stop the carriage)

Bai Ju:(comes out of the carriage as General Luo comes off the horse and walks to her) I'm tired, let's take a break.

Chih-ming: (bows) Yes, your highness (walks back to his horse)

Shufen:(walks to Bai Ju) Princess.

Bai Ju (faces Shufen) Come (Bai Ju and Shufen walk to the stream and they bend) Why do you think brother asked General Luo to follow us?

Shufen: His majesty cares about your safety. Besides, General Luo just came back from the state, he would know a lot of places there.

Bai Ju: Actually, brother just gave me someone to torment.

Shufen: Princess! (they chuckle)

General Luo and Chu Xien had been watching Bai Ju and Shufen and Chu Xien gawped at them

Chu Xien: Why are they chuckling?...

Bai Ju: Shufen, what do you think the prince will look like?

Shufen: Princess, I've not seen the prince before but I can tell he's very handsome because his majesty won't hand you over to just any man.

Bai Ju: (smiles)

Shufen: Hey! Is her highness blushing?

Bai Ju:(hits Shufen lightly) No way. Let's go back.

They both went back to the carriage as they all continued their journey....
