Liangyu whined a little, and snarled a couple of times as the maids took her armour off to tend to any deeper injuries, causing quite a bit of discomfort for the young woman with some of their hastier movements.London wrote: Silently, he wondered whether she could hold her own so well in the heat of battle, but he did not want to insult the young princess, so spoke nothing of it. "I wonder, would you consider introducing me to your father? I have been wandering these lands for many months now, and without a place to call home, I have grown weary. I would consider enlisting in his army."
Eventually, the breastplate was gone, and the rest of the heavy apparel and she was down to the simple white undergarment she wore underneath. Two maids helped her up, and realizing Chu was speaking to her, she dazedly asked,
"What was that again? Sorry..."
But a maid filled her in. She nodded weakly, and answered,
"I...I gotta change back in my room first. Won't do anyone good walking around in clothes stained with b...blood. But sure, afterwards...Just wait outside my room for a bit..."
She turned to the maid helping her, and said,
"Let's get back to my room...Easy now..."
And she limped off, wincing a bit. It was a thankfully short walk for the tired little princess, though there was a little incident where they nearly tripped over a tiger's tail, but soon, she was in her room.
And, not so soon, she came out, looking quite, well but obviously still a bit winded. Her clothes were a pristine and formfitting set of crimson and velvet, sleeveless even, and gave a little peek at her thin waist...though that was wrapped in bandages, as was the left arm, and her hair was now back in the ponytail fully, not a strand out of place. But the usually glittering green eyes were slightly glazed, and her posture was a bit bent as she motioned for him to follow her and her maids again...
Eventually, they came to the main hall, and she said weakly,
"Uh, Master Chu here wanted to meet you, dad."
Obviously, she was too tired to care much about formality...With that, and with just a hint of a bow, she already moved aside and plopped onto a cushion, dreamily inspecting the bowstring of her favourite weapon at her hip...

Liangyu giggled as she watched and whispered rather loudly after the King's questions,
"Oh, and would you like some refreshments?"
Nash
Liangyu watched in amusement as the General chowed down on the meatbuns while she continued to think about the mystery of the dead warriors of May, back two decades before. Once he was done, she had her own fill, and took a nap herself, being woken up by a maid once they were in the city. Finding the General to still be asleep, she spoke a bit loudly,
"Wake up sir! We're here in the city! Wake up!"
