4 Study
I walked my way to my father's study. I must find a way to leave this place go to my grandfather's before it's too late. I'm too young and can't handle many of the matters alone I need to guard those who have loved me so dearly! There can be no repeat of my previous mistakes!!.
Walking through this familiar yet forgotten path feels nostalgic the beautiful garden view on each side with hills, flowers, willow trees casting shadows on the koi pond with the slight cold breeze touching my skin, I feel the freshness of nature. How long had it been since I could just stand and marvel in this moment of peace. Truly how refreshing.
Upon reaching the study doors I saw it being greeted by the steward wu. "Steward wu, may I ask if my father is free for me to visit?!"
Steward wu looks down upon me with contempt. "Master is busy and does not wish to be disturbed eldest lady please return at another time"
How blind was I ?! How could I not see there mocking eyes. I gritted my teeth all in due time patience I repeated to my self.
"It is an urgent matter it concerns prime minister's house reputation and future if you believe that father would still not allow me to disturb him then you will be responsible to answer him later and I shall take my leave " turning around I start walking. I have barely taken a step when the coward called for me
" Eldest lady wait!! I will inform master so he may allows you to meet with him so that you may not blame it upon me for such URGENT matter of yours " he didn't wait for my reply and hurriedly turned around and walked inside. I knew that even if he likes to bully the weak the cunning old man will always leave himself a way out of any situation he will never risk his own neck but if I fail to convince father he would retaliate in the dark after all I still have my maternal family behind me so he can't openly do much.
I wait for half an hour outside but no one comes out to inform me of anything but I have to stand my ground I can't stay with these people even a second longer then necessary. The first step is to get an audience with that bastard of a father. I have already sent word to my grandfather the moment I awoke that he must arrive at the earliest and take me from here I can't explain the matter in detail in the letter but I know my grandpa will come for me no matter what so let's stand!! the longer you make me stand the better let's see who will pay with there knees later.
1 hour passes and I stand unknown to me my grandfather had arrived early and had heard everything said between the steward and me he had even held back the people of the fu from informing my father of his arrival.
