CHAPTER 3
Feng Ming wakes up and the sun already set. He only finds Chiu Lan resting her head on his bed, Chiu Yue is nowhere to be seen. He decided to climb out of bed, but wakes Chiu Lan up.
She tells Feng Ming that Chiu Yue probably sneaked out to play and Rong Tian would be busy with the ceremony all night so it’s probably best for him to eat dinner and sleep for the night (also since he’s been standing all morning earlier).
Both of them heard someone outside stating that the Great King has returned, but when Feng Ming rushes outside of his room, he only saw Lie Er. Chiu Lan gave Lie Er a hit on the head and scold him for tricking Feng Ming.
Rong Hu states that Lie Er deserves the punishment, but the Great King will be returning quickly since he is leaving the rest of the ceremony duties to his fellow officials to take care of.
Finally, Rong Tian returned looking tired. Feng Ming tells Chiu Yue and Chiu Xing to massage Rong Tian, but Rong Tian says: “Their hands are too clumsy, if you want to make me comfortable, why you don’t do it yourself?”
"Alright, let me." Feng Ming rolled up his sleeves.
Rong Tian had a scared expression on his face as he looked at Feng Ming. Feng Ming reddened his face: “What are you looking at?”
Rong Tian mumbled: “Did someone put a spell on Duke Ming, how come you are so attentive to me?” He observed Feng Ming and then motioned his hand to beckon Feng Ming to come near, whispered in his ears: “What tricks are you plotting, spill it out quickly.”
Feng Ming shocked, gritted his teeth: “I just saw that you worked hard so I wanted to treat you a bit better. Ugh! Can’t believe you think I have bad intentions? I have to beat you two times for this.” Feng Ming’s angered expression against the profound gaze of Rong Tian faded after
awhile. Feng Ming lowered his head, frowned and said: “I want...before you can resolve the assassin issue; you certainly will not let me leave the Crown Prince’s residence, right?”
”You’re right.”
Feng Ming was going to suggest something since he’ll probably die of boredom if he is stuck in the residence all day, but paused saying that his request is a bit selfish and will make court affairs seem like a joke.
Rong Tian understood Feng Ming’s request and said that from tomorrow onward, he will not go anywhere and will stay in the Crown Prince’s residence to manage court affairs - he will be with Feng Ming and together will form a magic prison so Feng Ming will not fall ill of boredom.
Feng Ming is overjoyed that Rong Tian knows him best.
They end up having sex until the middle of the night. Feng Ming remind Rong Tian that he needs to tell the court officials to meet at the Crown Prince’s residence or else they will be waiting at the King’s court. Rong Tian tells Feng Ming not to worry about that since he had something else to tell Feng Ming. Earlier that day, there were two people that wanted Feng Ming’s audience.
Feng Ming asked who.
"They are both kingdoms' representatives that were sent to participate the ceremony at Xi Lei; however their purpose was to borrow food supply. However, the thing that differed between
them is that one is real and the other is fake."
Rong Tian explained: “The real person borrowing food supply is from “Dong Fan.” This year they met natural disaster and a lot of people had to fight to buy food from the reserves, therefore this time they have traveled thousands of miles to borrow our food supply.”
Feng Ming suddenly asked, “Who did King of Dong Fan asked to come? How come I have to meet him?”
"The person that Dong Fan King sent you definitely have to meet. He is Lu Dan, the famous beauty of Dong Fan. Those who have seen him have admitted that if Lu Dan isn’t a male, the title of Most Beautiful Woman in the world wouldn’t even fall into the hands of Mei Ji. Although
those words are a bit exaggerated, it’s still enough to imagine how beautiful Lu Dan’s
appearance could be."
Feng Ming doesn’t have any interest in the topic of beauties, he just placed his hand over his mouth to cover his yawning and stated: “I understand. You probably are afraid of meeting this beauty because you can’t control yourself, therefore requested me to meet Lu Dan to help you from being seduce to the point of handing over all the food supply of Xi Lei to him, am I right? For goodness sake, then why don’t you just tell him to cover up his face?”
"What?" Rong Tian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry, but he didn’t dare to continue, instead faced Feng Ming and said: "Lu Dan is someone we haven’t met, but the other person is an old
friend. I bet that you wouldn’t guess who it is."
"An old friend?" Rong Tian evoke excitement in Feng Ming. He snuggled into Rong Tian’s embrace, concentrated on remembering the people he had known. The past year, the people he knew were not little, most of them are from royal background, but who could be the person he can’t imagine the most? Feng Ming end up saying "Miao Guang."
Rong Tian was surprised and looked at Feng Ming. "Did I guess wrong?"
"How come every time you are held by me, you are exceptionally more intelligent? Is it because when I hold you, I give you all my intelligence....Wah!!"
A loud noise of pain followed by a loud thud from something falling down echoed outside of the room causing Chiu Yue, Chiu Xing, and Lie Er sudden surprise while guarding outside. All of them stood up and was about to rush inside when a voice call out: “Don’t be surprise, it’s just that the Great King was kicked off the bed by Duke Ming.”
The person next to them was Rong Hu.
Chiu Yue and Chiu Xing looked at each other and gave Rong Hu a look that made him say: “What?”
"Oh my! He even dare to spy on them!"
Chiu Xing stood one place and shook her head: “You are more outrageous each day to the
point of no return.”
Rong Hu was distraught that his face was red to his ears: “It’s because these recent days the situation is peculiar therefore more careful patrolling around the region...I went to back bamboo forest back there.” After hastily ending his words, he turned and disappeared.
Lie Er couldn’t help but laugh at Rong Hu’s fluster.
The next morning, King of Xi Lei finally experience back pain Feng Ming experienced each morning for the first time.
According to reports, the person with power in Kingdom Li in place of Ruo Yan who is
unconscious, a woman with the most power in the world, an old friend of them, Princess Miao Guang, will be coming to Xi Lei today.
Why would the ruler of Kingdom Li only bring several thousand soldiers to accompany? Why would she dare to enter Xi Lei, the place that she hated the most? And even use the purpose of borrowing food supply to ask for Xi Lei’s Duke Ming’s audience?
