Why? Why did this man never look at her with that wistful gaze before? What was she even lacking?

For him, she learned sword fighting and it was for his sake that she even hid from her father and learned political tactics of the court for she wanted to always be by his side. She did so much for him but why was it that he could not see her efforts, yet he fell for a woman who did not care whether he lived or died?

Ji Yu was a woman who was in love and thus she could see that Liu Hui Ying held no feelings for Zhai Tianyu. She was respectful and reserved when Zhai Tianyu was around but that was the end of her feelings, for the queen, Zhai Tianyu might as well be someone whom she saw in passing and did not hold any strong desire to conquer him or gain his affection.

But Ji Yu did and she was surprised that Zhai Tianyu could not see what she felt for him. Just how long was he going to see her like a childhood friend whom he agreed to make Queen and give a child, not because he loved her but because he needed to fulfil his duty?

Many times they have been together but Zhai Tianyu has never even approached her much less kiss her. They only went as far as holding hands and that too when she initiated it, even then Zhai Tianyu was awkward and stiff but he wasn’t like that with the Queen just now when he swooped down to almost kiss her.

Zhai Tianyu turned to look at Ji Yu when he heard her words, he did not know what to say which was why he didn’t answer her question instead he asked one of his own, ” Is there something that you need, consort?”

‘ Of course, he avoided that question,’ Ji Yu thought as she pursed her lips, she wanted to scream and cry. Throw a tantrum and tell Zhai Tianyu what she did for him and how long she waited for him, she even wanted to ask why he was doing this to her and how could he break his promise to her but she did not.

.....

She was afraid to be abandoned, to be seen as a nuisance. Thus, even when her heart felt like it was tearing in half, she clenched her fingers on the sides and smiled with a polite curl of her lips, ” If you don’t mind can we walk in the garden like we used to, your majesty? I believe this is not a place where we should be talking.”

As she spoke, she looked at the corpse that was lying behind Zhai Tianyu on the raised stone platform.

Zhai Tianyu agreed with what she said and nodded as the two walked out of the training field which would be cleaned by the servants who were responsible to keep everything in order.

The garden where they used to take walks as kids were not far, in just three minutes the two arrived in the flourishing garden that was blooming despite the chill that was crawling right beside the summers that were leaving them.

Ji Yu walked beside Zhai Tianyu, unlike Liu Hui Ying who kept her hair accessories to a minimum since she did not like the hassle and the weight they put on her neck and head, Ji Yu loved dressing up. She not only wore hair pins with tassels but she also wore the small crown that was given to the four imperial concubines.

As she was the only imperial concubine, Ji Yu alone had a crown on her head along with Liu Hui Ying, who was the Queen.

The two walked side by side and the tassels of Ji Yu’s hairpin dangled and fluttered with the autumn winds. The sky was a gloomy shade of black as the clouds covered the sun, not even letting a single ray of sunlight filter through them.

But even so, Ji Yu’s beauty was like a cheerful sun shining brightly as she stretched her hands and touched the flowers that were blooming on the side of the stone pavement.

Her fingers delicately touched the petals of the flowers like a butterfly kissing a flower.

The pink petals of the cherry blossoms swirled in the air and fluttered around them as she hitched a side of her lips and then said, ” Do you remember your majesty, you gifted me this tree that is called cherry blossoms just because I said it was pretty?”

” I do,” Zhai Tianyu replied as he kept his pace slow while walking next to Ji Yu, hands behind his back and face staring at the front. He heard the jibe that Ji Yu did not say outright but he did not know what to do anymore either.

Yes. He broke his promise, he was in the wrong to do that but he has never said that he loved Ji Yu, she was more or less of his colleagues and they had their roles to play. Now that he has someone he loved, should Ji Yu be not happy for him?

Since they were friends for so long?

Ji Yu sighed, her sigh as helpless as a woman who was losing everything. The more she tried to grasp onto the sand that was leaving her hands, the faster it moved, making her feel so helpless like she has never felt before.

” When you gave me this tree, you promised the world to me, your majesty,” Ji Yu spoke without any anger. ” Then what changed, your majesty?”
