King's Regrets
The Eps 40

In the middle of the market in Yu city, crown prince Zhang walked with his personal bodyguard. He wanted to buy something for Xia Lian An, because the day after tomorrow he had to return to his country.

When he was about to enter a shop, he accidentally met the eldest daughter.

"Greetings to the eldest daughter." Crown prince Zhang.

"Greetings to the noble crown prince Zhang." The eldest daughter replied to crown prince Zhang's greeting.

Crown Prince Zhang and the eldest daughter entered a restaurant not far from where they had met.

"I didn't expect to meet the crown prince of the Ming country in this Yu town." The eldest daughter.

"I also did not expect, if I would meet the eldest daughter's noble here. Because all I know, your majesty lives in another city."

The eldest daughter looked at crown prince Zhang sharply.

"You came here, is it to meet Yan's sister?"

Crown Prince Zhang smiled, he then drank the tea served by the restaurant's waiter.

"All I know is, Miss Xia is no longer the empress of this Yan Qin state. So then.. Why does the eldest princess still call her younger sister Yan?"

"Even though she is no longer the empress of our country's Yan, but to me she is still Yan's sister."

Crown Prince Zhang nodded.

"Instead, why did crown prince Zhang come to our country, but not see the emperor first?"

"I'm just here to see someone, and I don't think it's necessary to see Emperor Shun."

"What are you... Really like it?"

Crown Prince Zhang smiled, he then stood up.

"I am not a man who will marry someone just to be made into a decoration or an outlet of anger. So of course, I really like Miss Xia."

"If she doesn't like you?"

"I will respect what Miss Xia's decision is and will not pressure her to be with me. Because I won't let the people I love suffer."

Crown Prince Zhang did not say any more, after paying his respects to the eldest daughter. He walked away from the restaurant.

The eldest daughter was silent, she perfectly understood the meaning of crown prince Zhang's words just now.

"You sisters are the same, you can only suppress your desires in the weak." (hp)

Crown Prince Zhang walked away to the shop he had been to before, then he was just about to go to Xia Lian An's house. Because last night when she came to her house, Xia Lian An was not there.

"Welcome sir, do you want to find a hairpin for your wife?" The shopkeeper said to crown prince Zhang.

Crown Prince Zhang walked into the shop and looked over some hairpins that were there.

"Bring me your best hairpin." Crown Prince Zhang said to the shopkeeper.

"Okay sir, I'll get it."

The maid immediately went to pick up the hairpin that crown prince Zhang wanted.

While crown prince Zhang was waiting for the maid to pick up a hairpin, a woman approached him while flicking the fan she was carrying.

"This master, is it new in Yu city?" Speak to the woman in a very gentle tone but with a certain meaning.

Crown Prince Zhang did not respond to the woman's remarks, he looked around at the other hairpins that were on display at the table.

Feeling that the person being talked to ignored her, the woman did not want to give up. He then saw crown prince Zhang staring at a few flops and hairpicks on the table.

"Master, if you're looking for hairpins for men, it's right over there." Say that woman again.

Not yet had crown prince Zhang answer the woman's words, the shopkeeper who had taken the hairpin he wanted came.

"Sir, this is the best hairpin in our store that you want." The maid opened the brown box and displayed a beautiful hairpin on crown prince Zhang.

The woman also saw a hairpin that was carried by a shopkeeper. Then he immediately picked up the hairpin before crown prince Zhang touched it.

"I love this hairpin, I'll buy it."

The woman with a hairpin in her hand turned her head and looked at crown prince Zhang.

"Master, you wouldn't be fighting braang with a woman would you?" The woman asked slightly seductively to crown prince Zhang.

Crown Prince Zhang was extremely disgusted to see such a woman. He then turned around without saying and took out one of the hairpicks made from selected wood with a flower decoration made from pure jade.

"I bought this one. And I no longer want that hairpin. Besides my wife won't want to wear a hairpin that's been touched by someone who doesn't have a rule." crown prince Zhang gave the hairpick he chose to the shopkeeper.

The woman rounded her eyes at crown prince Zhang's words, some of the visitors who had seen the woman since earlier whispered scornful of the woman's attitude towards crown prince Zhang.

"Then, I'll take care of it for you." Said the waiter.

"Sir, what do you mean say that?" The woman did not accept being humiliated.

"Miss, I'm just telling you the truth. The hairpin was the hairpin I wanted for the gift I was going to give my wife. But you took that hairpin without asking first."

Back the visitors whispered while staring at the woman with contemptuous gazes.

The woman who could not stand the whispers and gazes of the shopgoers, finally put the hairpin on the table and left with a feeling of anger.

"Are all the women in this town, like that?" Crown Prince Zhang said softly to his personal bodyguards.

Not long after the shopkeeper came by the hairpick he had put in the box.

Crown Prince Zhang gave the shop attendant some silver pieces, then left the shop and walked towards Xia Lian An's house.

Arriving in front of Xia Lian An's house, crown prince Zhang saw Xia Lian An was about to leave. He then rushed over to Xia Lian An.

"Miss Xia." Crown prince Zhang.

Xia Lian An turned his head and looked at crown prince Zhang and his bodyguards.

"Sir Jiang, what are you doing here?"

"Can we talk?"

Xia Lian An nodded, then let crown prince Zhang into his house.

After they entered and sat inside Xia Lian An's house, crown prince Zhang picked up the box from inside his sleeve.

"It's for you." Crown Prince Zhang said as he handed the box to Xia Lian An.

Xia Lian An received the box "What is this?"

"You can see it."

Xia Lian An nodded then opened the box that crown prince Zhang had given her.

A hairpick with a flower made from pure goik inside the box made Xia Lian An freeze.

(Because there is no anime version, so Xia Lin used the original picture 🙏😁).

Crown Prince Zhang saw the reaction of Xia Lian An.

"I'm not gonna press you with that hairpick, I just want you to wear it."

"Mr Jiang..."

"I will respect all the decisions of Miss Xia, I just hope that Miss Xia will always be happy."

Xia Lian An looked at crown prince Zhang, she then nodded her head and smiled.

"Thank you, master Jiang is already willing to understand."

"I just don't want you to feel anything you've ever felt before."

Xia Lian An's feelings were so warm hearing the sincere remarks of crown prince Zhang. But he had not been able to avenge the feelings of crown prince Zhang, before he avenged the original owner of his body.
