Iron Bone encounters White Prince (05.28.2021 edited) 

Two shadows were lurking inside the General Quarters. Chu Qiao back to her quarters when suddenly a sack was thrown into her head.

A woman on her hellish eyes and lips caught a black ninja with a black band, a jade in its middle head and smells ferocious but another bloodthirsty figure took him and hypnotized him, and he fell trap into it.

A spy disguised in Yanbei uniform carried a woman away from the Meilin border pass camp and put her down, took out the sack in her head while her hands were tied at her back.

Chu Qiao in the presence of the white ninja, on its long majestic white cape hood, white boots inlaid with intricate gold designs, a white band on its head with a jade crystal, unsheathed the Cheng Yin sword in his hand.

He closed his eyes and turned around to show his fresh, handsome face, plum lips out in the cold but narrow eyes to meet her.

The White Prince opened his eyes and was astonished at the woman in front of him. While the woman did not even blink and not sensing any fear out of his silverish sword ready to cut at any moment.

The White Prince unable to say or move from its place he just stared at her so shocked but calm and composed, he uttered: “Are you a ghost?”

Chu Qiao did not speak to answer but suddenly moved quickly and she back tumbled in front of him and using her feet she kicked the two spies who disguised themselves in a Yanbei uniform. Suddenly two spies were down feeling the pain that Chu Qiao let them taste and she went back to her calm stand and looked at the White Prince on her fierce eyes, she said: Can a ghost kick flesh and blood spies?

The White Prince was assured, her presence is not a ghost, he sensed the woman is ready to kill him, he raised his sword, and the sword like magic went invisible.

Chu Qiao’s back is killing her in pain, as the flower tattoo, trickles its light, it activates her powers, but then she shuns it by humming an ancient oracle when she closed her eyes and kept it under control, the wind blew so strong as the snow in the road started to fall and two figures are standing there, no one dares to make the first move.

Chu Qiao’s back is glowing and about to burn, but she is determined not to use its powers suddenly passed out and just like that, she fell like a snow falling in the ground and the White Prince’s eyes dilated and rushed to catch the woman on her fall, when all of a sudden an arrow was shot at his back, he protected the woman.

A white horse is waiting nearby a lonely tree far from the outside of Meilin border pass is blinking its eyes suddenly the White Prince whistled, and the horse ears recognizing its master’s long and consecutive whistles quickly ran.

The White Prince managed to put the woman at the back of the white royal horse when it went down on its knees to receive the woman and the White Prince. T

he White Prince although aching, tapped the horse and like a flash, they rode away from Meilin border and after two hours they reached the Wei Valve gate.

Two cold far eyes put down its bow and white feather arrows and said to his servant: A’Jing it is done, one down but the Star taken by him.

“The World, you cannot announce your presence and expose yourself to vulnerability you must stay as an unknown entity, and most of all control yourself. The little King Prince will take care of her or die at the worst and while waiting you may continue your efforts as your wedding is approaching and remember your what happened that day, on that platform.”

Yan Xun on his black hood twitched his palms until one of the feather arrows was broken, his eyes in tears he walked away and hope for a better situation with his Star.

**

The White Prince carrying the beautiful Xuili General on her light garment on his hands was very tired and pale, he tapped the royal button and the Wei Valve received the Royal Prince from the entrance to an elevator-like mechanism that transported then both bodies vertically down and then another shortcut route to the Wei’s Crown Prince palace.

Yuan Song with an arrow shot is aching on his back walked towards his royal room, he broke his protocol when he put the woman down in his royal bed gently and did not ask anyone for any help.

Like his nomad ancestors, a hunt like this is a prize in his eyes, he went to lit a tea candle nearby and let the thin red curtains of his royal bed drape, little clinging sounds echoed in his royal room.

Yuan Song did not mind himself although aching at his back went beside his bed to look at the prey from his hunt and just watched the lovely arches of her face, her eyebrows, her sleeping eyes, although his back is gushing with blood, he just wanted to see her face over and over. E

ven if it means, he will lose more blood at every second delay of emergency treatment, he is like a god today and not human looking at this long-time-no-see love of his life.

Yuan Song suddenly felt the biting pain in his back, put a blue, royal jade beside the sleeping beauty, he crawled towards the south of his room and pulled the bell asking for immediate help he can no longer hold when his blood loss was flowing all over his room, he passed out.

The south side of the Palace where the royal maidservants rushed to the 13th Prince palace and suddenly found the 13 Prince Yuan Song in a bloodbath, the maidservants thought he is dead, and they screamed for help while others ran towards the Royal family doctors.

After a few minutes, the royal family doctors came and found the 13th Prince Yuan Song in bloody horror, did not carry him to his bed. Right on the spot, lying in the expensive carpet, cut his white ninja dress and gently wiped the blood in the expensive carpet while the maidservants are welling tears in their eyes, the doctors surrounded his body and looked for any signs of life.

His Chi flow is very weak they quickly put some acupuncture in his meridians to stop the blood loss, another doctor examining the wound on his back hold him sideways and cut some white cloth and poured out some spring water about to start surgery and pull out the white feather arrow.

The doctor and their assistants, although its winter and cold, their foreheads sweat as they used acupuncture to insert an anesthesia drug on his principal body meridians and suddenly the aching Yuan Song stopped his aching sounds and went to asleep.

After a few hours, the Wei Emperor after learning what happened to his crown prince rushed to 13th Prince Palace and saw him on his bed, and his face turned to pale and was very shocked.

The Wei Emperor wrinkled his brows and raised them so high, looked at the doctors, the eunuchs, the guards and the maidservants and nobody wants to talk when suddenly the Old Royal Eunuch in the palace opened his mouth he said: “Your Majesty, the protocol was broken, and someone must pay the price, but take a look at this.”

The royal eunuch showed him the blue jade in the middle of his 13th Prince Yuan Song royal palace bed indicating immunity to the guest in his bed, and all of the servants understood but is not sure what would the Wei Emperor orders to do.

The Wei emperor saw the Cheng Yin sword beside his son’s bed and in the corner of his eyes remembered it. The Wei emperor is a bit nostalgic and happy that his son was able to use it.

Looking at him now, he is severely wounded, the head royal family doctor came to him and said: “Your Majesty, we have done the best we could and the surgery is a success, it means, he will live.”

And another royal medical assistant came forward and showed him the white feather arrow.

The Wei Emperor took the white feather arrow and stared at it, he coldly raised his eyebrows and then finally uttered: “First a protocol was broken, gather the guards of the 13th Prince and will not live to see the sunrise,” the room was wrapped in terror upon the first order of the Wei emperor.

“Second, a blue jade was presented to the traitor of the Wei State indicating immunity to honor the seal of the 13th Prince of Wei, the woman beside him does not have any entitlements to occupy this Royal bed.

Because of the 13th Prince of Wei used his Blue Jade for the first time, it shall be honored for three days and after it, a verdict shall be passed on and the woman be put on special trial and if found guilty she will receive its punishment for trespassing the 13th Prince of Wei’s royal bed.”

“Third, a white feather arrow indicating he was shot by the Rebel Prince Yan Xun, summon the 7th Prince of Wei.”

All of Wei State servants from high to low bowed their heads in front of the Wei Emperor, and the Wei Emperor on his usual aristocratic face left the room where he found all of his concubines outside the 13th Prince Palace waiting, they all bowed when they saw him and the Wei Emperor did not even look at them as he walked straight to the Shen Jin Palace.

**

At dawn, an iron pole in the middle of the Xuili camp was erected and a Black Prince was tied to it by iron shackles suddenly woke up but cannot put down his head due to the neck iron cuff with small pointed iron spread around it like a sharp vampire tooth standing upwards.

If the Black Prince attempts or even accidentally puts his head down may do a suicide of his own life.

The Black Prince on his fierce eyes, a jade band in his head, a horrific face of black ink and slightly raised neck and all of the Xuili military officials and enlisted personnel has never seen this kind of torture in public while its centurion is not on site they started to chat and surround him.

Ever since Chu Qiao took over the Xuili army, General Chu taught the entire cavalry her time-tested principles including the value to respect every right of an enemy especially if the enemy becomes a prisoner of war (POW).

Apparently, the catch was considered a prized one, looking at the jade in its head confirmed its high value as one of the Royals from the Northwestern territories.

A longtime rival of Yan Royal clan in dispute with the Yanbei’s land mass, who would like to rule and occupy Yanbei instead of settling in their own cold, harsh and all year round winter season native land experiencing only the heat of the sun once in a year, then back to its cruel beautiful land mass of snow.

The Bathuja family grew up healthy and mighty not to mention they were known to be the “favored Batuja Royal Family”, a protectorate northwestern state against the “annihilated Yan Royal Family” in the middle ground of a protectorate and a more tributary state in nature as they provide security to the Wei state borders at the North.

Rewinding to story of Yan Schicheng, the King of Yan was commissioned by the Wei Emperor, the overlord of all the Western States to guard its outside borders and provide military strength using its Yan Generals, who were also sons and descendants of the hero’s blood rose from the same nomads ancestors that made up the strong Western Regime.

The Yan Royal household ruled over all vast lands of the North and call it Yanbei. It is to be understood that Yan Royals was an extension of manpower that initially occupied the North.

They claim that they were the only Royals who were direct descendants from the Yuan Royal Throne, the only legitimate blood brother to the past Western emperors.

Unfortunately, the present Wei emperor due to his friction in politics especially to the Wei Valve elders forgot to balance each other’s side and fell into his selfish agenda’s,  forgot Yan’s Schicheng loyalty, used it to abuse the entire Yan Royal household and hence the result of today.

The Yan Royal Clan was known for its white feather arrows, finesse, know-how maneuver and a target shooter of their preys.

They never fail on this area as their blood as cold as Wei’s descendants, they train their young at an early age to join the hunting grounds in the wild forests of Yanbei and eventually enlists them in the military.

The only difference was, Yan descendants hunts for animals, on their cold hearts but provincial mindset but Wei descendants, a colder heart but urban mindset, hunts human as their prey and their proceeds continued to paint the outside Empires a picture of  fear and displays their might, the parade of their military stars leading hundreds and thousands of heavy cavaliers.

The Wei Emperor sat on his throne, informed of the white feather arrow, he played it in his hands and was in deep thinking. The Rebel Prince white feather arrow, although he has not seen him for years knows him very well and in his deep thoughts: “This act reveals more of his present condition even if I did not see him face to face. The woman beside the 13th Prince of Wei is not an ordinary one but a General of Xuili Army sleeping sweetly in her wounded Enemies bed.

The Wei emperor rose and slowly walked from his throne still in deep thinking: “I get it. The Rebel Prince escape Changan, played like a rabbit for a while, became a snake to his best friend Yuwen Yue, lost his tiger for a while and put her to hibernate but now suddenly seeing her alive and….

“and…my son at the expense of his life.. what could it be? Cannot comprehend this stupid mess.”

The Wei emperor was so focused on the marrying of Liang-Yanbei states, and this became an oversight.

The Rebel Prince hid his Crouching Tiger that played an essential role in their battle to Meilin Border pass manning the Xuili Army and advancing his troops towards Changan.

The Wei Emperor remembered Yan Xun married 18 concubines in a day after the ice lake incident but slept to no one, leaving the Yan throne no heir at the moment but that act alone contributed to his riches and provided him more allies than his present Princes.

The Wei emperor tapped his fingers in his jaw while its Eunuch is following him like a dog at his back he said: “it’s a killing-me-softly strategy but what happens if I will convert this Xuili General of his as the 13th Prince of Wei’s crown princess and eventually inherit the throne through a royal grandson?

Will this put the rebel prince Yan Xun heart to die and fan away any hopes in his heart?

What is the most dreadful a man can receive but a broken heart and shattered dreams?

And not to mention to grant the 13th Prince of Wei’s wishes, a slave not even a commoner married to the next heir of Wei’s throne.

And oh to make it worst, she is a traitor to Wei State but she is also remembered as the first woman to join the Wei’s elite forces and granted her the High Order of Archer Coach next to the 7th Prince Yuan Che.

What could be the political implications if he allows such change in his Imperial government?”

The Wei emperor turning the overcards he laid on his table reveals he is losing big time, but on this card, he will sweep the win at the end of this game and put closure.

And the Emperor on his curious face he asked the Eunuch: is this what Yuan Che mentioned before his “Ghost love”?

The Eunuch answered: “Your Majesty, I’d rather think whoever the woman is, it is his source of inspiration, with the 13th Prince condition it is hard to recover but we have seen him stronger than before, and that is after the icy lake tragedy, his ideas changed and view of the world became different.”

The Wei Emperor thought the Eunuch is right and has a shrewd observation about the changes on the 13th Prince behavior towards the Empire and the fight to continue the future of Wei’s Throne.

He had to overlook those small details of his 13th Prince Son and had been so focused with the rebel prince.

The Wei Emperor for the first time in two years had a sincere smile in the corners of his eyes, and he is not getting any younger who would have thought that he would realize that the candidate woman, the next Wei Queen is just the wild kitten around the wild bushes.

The only thing that concerns him is his political parties, the aristocrats and nobles. Will they yield if a decree is to be passed? This will be a significant change.

The Eunuch looking at the Sunny Wei Emperor suggested: Your Majesty, may I present a proposition?

Why not set up a contest and justify the selection, not just likely to be your influence but if the wild kitten will get the majority of the political parties the chances for the throne will be very positive and will avoid a lot of problems for the 13th Prince of Wei as the next heir to your throne.

The Wei Emperor suddenly turned to his back and looked at his Eunuch straight in the eyes, but the Eunuch on his clasp hands in front of him bowed his head, said: “Pass a decree, write all your propositions. Invite all fine and lovely princess, nobles maidens for the selection of the crown princess of Wei. It shall be done before my time passes out.”

The Wei Emperor suddenly looked at the beautiful scenery of the Chisui lake on its crystal clear calm waters he added: I would also like to see the first-born grandson through the blood of the 13th Prince of Wei, flesh, and blood of Wei’s future.

Yuan Song after few hours woke up and opened his eyes and saw the curtains of his royal bed.

He slightly turned to stand, but a presence halted him as his body was wrapped in silk gold with bandages in his back up to his chest. Waking up like this and seeing a pair of beautiful eyes is one of the happiest days of his life he joked: “Did I just gave up the status of being single and woke up with the real love of my life and not anymore a ghost love?”

The woman not wanting to ruin the moment of this little King’s prince because of his injury she said: “Maybe? and Chu Qiao moved her eyes away from him arranging the royal blanket she also added: “You are badly injured you need more rest, we can continue to talk about it later.” Yuan Song put a smile when he heard it and closed his eyes he went back to sleep.

It has been three days and Yuan Song still on his bed resting from his injuries, but a lot of things already happened inside the Wei Palace.

The Wei Emperor honored his three decrees, executed all the royal guards who were not able to look after the safety and protection of His Highness the 13th Prince of Wei that happened on the night of the tributary hunt.

Next, the Wei Emperor put Chu Qiao on trial for trespassing the Crown Prince Royal Bed but this is just to frame up Chu Qiao that the 13th Prince Yuan Song, the Crown Prince of Wei saved her from Meilin Border Pass.

Everyone shocked when they heard they were lovers and Prince Yan Xun as part of the love triangle not in favor of it. Out of his jealousy, shot the 13th Prince of Wei.

The Prince of Wei out of his love took the Xuili General and fabricated a love story in between them.

The Wei Emperor also announced that the rebel prince Yan Xun was actually hiding his Tiger General and does not have real plans on attending his wedding day to tie the knot with Liang state just like what happened two years ago when Yan Xun abandoned Princess Chuner and used the wedding day to rebel and execute his perfect escape.

The Wei Emperor stated that Yan Xun has been hiding his relationship with his Tiger General and the Tiger General not in love with him but with the 13th Prince of Wei for the longest time, Chu Qiao and the 13th Prince of Wei we’re lovers. The news broke out, and the King of Liang went furious. But Yan Xun did not have any reactions about it, he just rode away and settled at the far side of Xiu Xiu mountains and stayed there for three days.

The Wei Emperor faked his proceedings by spreading the news he is not in favor of this love affair between the 13th Prince of Wei to the Xuili General and will execute Chu Qiao.

Suddenly Yuan Che came in between to meddle and prevented the Emperor to put Chu Qiao’s public execution.

As Chu Qiao’s former boss, Yuan Che gave a lengthy speech about her chivalry, her achievements under his command and then ended by stirring the hearts of the political parties, Palace concubines, Wei Valve elders, the Ministers and the Wei Generals that unless they have memory lapse Yuan Che strongly said: “Do not forget, The Emperor passed on a decree about General Chu and she is next in rank to the 7th Prince of Wei Throne, the High Order of MU LAN as the Archer Coach of the entire Xiaoqi Elite forces blossomed under the cavalry of the late General Yuwen who went to the afterlife.”

Yuan Che did this out of his own accord, and the Wei Emperor knows how to push the buttons of everyone around him, he responded:” Well, the High Order of MU LAN is the only decree that cannot be affected by any of the subject actions from the time it was passed on going forward. And the Eunuch came in front of the Emperor’s vast subjects such as the Wei Valve elders, Palace concubines, entire Wei noble of Zhao, and even the whole Yuwen household attended and heard the decree once again:

“To govern the world with civilization and suppress rebellion with the military. The commanders and generals are ridgepoles of the nation and the mainstays of the government. So, I would like to promote talented persons only based on their ability not their background. The lady named Chu Qiao is well-educated and trained in military exercises is both virtuous and talented. She treats her Lord with loyalty, serves the emperor with honesty and acts like Mu Lan, she becomes a good model. She is assigned to be the Coach of Arrow in the Qiaoqi camp. I hope you can die in the battlefield, forget selfishness in the interest of the public and not disappoint my expectation.”

Chu Qiao’s eyes blindfolded dressed on her Archer Coach of Wei uniform and in front of everyone just announced her presence. The Wei Emperor does not execute an important official wearing Wei’s outfit, but the crowd is not aware.

The Emperor ordered Chu Qiao to put away her Xuili General uniform and specifically let Chu Qiao wear her former Mu Lan Archer Coach uniform when she was still serving at the Xiaoqi camp.

In effect, the entire political parties, political clans such as the Yuwen’s, the palace ministers, Wei Valve elders, and the whole of noble society can relate and increase sympathy on behalf of her.

The Wei Emperor accomplishing everything in his control turned a successful purpose through Yuan Che without even forcing or influencing him.

And the rest of the nobles murmured in the crowd, passed their judgments and forgot about the subject of treason.

Suddenly Yuan Yang, like a prosecutor came into the picture and spoke about the subject of treason.

Chu Qiao like in the hole of a needle need to pass this trial in his presence and spoke: “Do not also forget that the MU LAN of this empire broke the Xiaoqi military code of loyalty. Treason cannot be forgotten and must be punished by execution.”

Yuan Che stood up once again, like a lawyer he reasoned: “I Yuan Che, did not forget the provision of pardon stated in the subject of Treason.”

“Chu Qiao, the MU LAN of the empire may have joined the rebel prince Yan Xun and stayed by his side. But do not also forget that the Yuwen household commissioned her as the secret spy agent of sacrifice to protect our Empire and the last time I checked, the Eyes of God heir Yuwen Yue, his bodyguards Yue Qi and through her influence in the Xuili army fought to save him at the frozen lake but eventually died.”

“If you have any doubts about her valor and her loyalty, I Yuan Che opens this stage for everyone to come and execute her now.”

Yuan Che’s eyes even welling in tears but stern face because he again remembered Yuwen Yue and the rest of the noble crowd was also doing the same.

Although the name of Yuwen Yue has been forbidden for the longest time, once again the hearts of the nobles came to remember this brave young general and lost heir to the Eyes of God is all they can remember and not the news that He died fighting for her maidservant Chu Qiao.

The Wei Emperor secretly laughing in the inside for he even excelled in accomplishing his goals by this method and means, the rebel Prince Yan Xun will surely be in anger and will not be able to recover.

Suddenly, heavy steps were heard, like on a big screen, so grand and powerful Yuwen Huai, the former Supreme Court highest Official came to the stage and looked at Chu Qiao.

He untied her neck from the pole, untied her hands and took out her blindfold. Everyone was astonished at her beautiful face, all the nobles in awe and wonder, her face was shining like a light to their dark hearts.

Chu Qiao looked at the beautiful crowd but loathes them in her heart, she heard it all, and suddenly all of her memories came back to her, but for some reason, she does not feel she owns them all.

Just like his first encounter with Yan Xun, a lot of her memories were retrieved from that time but cannot respond the way she was before.

Because like a puzzle needs its missing pieces, what happened today was a missing piece she put into place. Especially when she heard the name Yuwen Yue and what happened to him was one thing she is searching.

Chu Qiao heard about the frozen lake, the rebel prince, but something bothers her when the Wei Emperor storytelling their love affair with the 13th Prince Yuan Song?

Chu Qiao cannot believe it and still asks herself what is the truth of the matter, are they really lovers?

The Wei Emperor, by all means, using all methods to mousetrap his subjects while inflicting pain to the rebel Prince Yan Xun discovered that the rebel Prince in all his might and power, put up a cold facade trying to protect his Tiger General.

It is now all in his hands and just waiting for the full recovery of the 13th Prince, and the selection of the crown princess will commence.

What can be more painful in the world than to see your beautiful General ending in the Bed of Yuan Throne, instead of the Yan Throne?

A mortal enemy won’t be able to recover from it.
