That... escalated quickly.


So, let's say that Consort Virtues indeed mentioned him and ZiFu to LianBi.
The next day from their visit to Haru, Ryuke comes to warn PanAn that the Emperor summoned him to wait on him for that night.
The news left him rather baffled. He should be happy he is finally noticed by the Emperor, but he is scared and hesitant about it. He even tries to ask Ryuke to beg LianBi to postpone of a day, but naturally that's nothing the Sangseon is willing to do. Rather, he just reassures PanAn and tells him he will come back later to take him to the Damiwon.

The procedure is the same as it was for all the other Cairen. A few hours in the Damiwon and then to the Sun Quarters to meet the Emperor. The only difference is that this time there is no Bang-sul to participate.
Ryuke leaves him to LianBi's residence and is dismissed for the night.

~ At 3:30 am, PanAn is seen running into the harem by the guards, all naked and bare feet, just covering his manhood with hand.
He got really terrified. LianBi was in a dreadful mood, he was rough and harsh with him, thus it only felt like a tremendous agony for poor PanAn. As soon as the Emperor fell asleep, the cairen slipped down from the bed and decided to run away, fearing he would wake up if he stopped to dress up.
Returned to the dormitories, that are only inhabited by him right now, he grants himself a couple of moments to calm down, then goes to take a bath and wears his night clothes.

The only thing giving him a bit of comfort is to think that now it will pass a long while before being summoned again, as he has this flawed convinction that the Emperor will follow always the same order of summoning, thus he will be the last of the second round. He is very silly to think that way.
He lies down and curls up on the floor, near the wall at the end of the room, covered by the beds. For some reason, it doesn't feel good to lie in bed, to him, at the current state of things.

Grandpy "They attempted to poison you already?" His eyes widen. Now the thing just turned even more serious to him.
"He just sent him away? He didn't execute him?" Jeonha and his weird policy of not executing underaged people, bah.
"That's why you have to become Consort! So that you can save all the three of us and use your power to counter theirs!" Someone just wants to be safe... as if becoming consort gave the person some sort of super powers.
"You will have to continue the story, especially if I get executed or everyone will know it was me to write it..." And if he'd be dead by then, it would change the world to him.

LianBi. "Why don't you want to be thanked?" He knows it takes some guts to approach him and speak of something that could potentially annoy him, when in such a bad mood. "They should thank you." PanAn will sacrifice a chicken in his name.

Long "Ye...only once but it is hard to forget. I was so afraid I would die... luckily Jeonha found out and sent the bastard away. He didn't execute him because he is underage...meh, better for us, means we can try to poison someone else but we won't get killed till we are 21." He could never.
He blinks at his words, turning thoughtful. "Y..ye...I will become Consort then! Consort Fu indeed sounds rather good..." He takes his chin and ponders. Well, a tiny bit of power $.$
"I will! I will not stop writing until we will send Consort and Advisor Evil away from this Palace and save Jeonha!"

Yoshi lowers his gaze, rubbing his forearm with hand. "I just don't want him to approach me, I would rather not meet him again. He makes me uneasy." A mix of everything ZhaoZi said to him before and jealousy.

Grandpy "Underaged people can't be executed? Are you sure of it?" he asks with trembling voice. That would at least be a reassurance he won't die.
He could never either.
There sure has been at least one Consort Fu in a Chinese drama of some time. XD
"Dont forget about me, then, though!" Powers hit the head hard.
He nods. "It seems that our mission is even more critical and important than we initially thought. We will have to be more detailed and dark in our description for the next chapter. We might be short in time."

LianBi. "He shouldn't even leave the harem without permission, are you really meeting him so often?" By the way he speaks it's as if he crashed his face against ZiFu every step he took.

Long "Ehm...they sure can if they piss Jeonha off too much! Just that he tends to avoid it with younger people? Let's not test our luck...
Aniyo! How could I forget you, you should really trust me! Who else would have written to Consort Evil, for you?
Ye...I am really worried about it. Do you think Jeonha read about it? Do you think someone understood the connection yet?"

"Aniyo, he just annoys me to this point. I tried to be his friend but it is impossible, so better to just maintain distances. He makes me angry, I fear I could hurt him if he continues..." He doesn't normally attack back because it wouldn't be fair, people like ZhaoZi wouldn't stand a chance.

Grandpy He looks down. "How does one know if he pushed Jeonha too much or not?" A good sign could be the fact he was healed from the non-deadly wounds. Physicians and materials are paid, it would be quite a dumb investment to heal someone who has to die the next day.
"It's just to say, don't get offended for no reason! I heard that people change a lot when they reach high positions..." Look at Haru, how much she changed from before.
"I don't know..." Of course Jeonha read it. Is already facepalming for the overly flattered 'Golden Sun' of the story, assuming someone is indirectly being a lickass.

LianBi. He blinks, actually surprised by this whole matter. He didn't think ZhaoZi and Yoshi were litigious people. "Control yourself, don't do anything foolish."
