Feng Yu Jiu Tian - Volume 5 - Chapter 9

CHAPTER 9

The man in front of them was around the same height as Rong Tian. His waist was slim to which girls have to admire, underneath the layers of clothes would make anyone tremble with emotions.

The beautiful features on the face can only use words of absolute perfection to describe. For example, Rong Tian could be considered a beautiful man, but standing next to him has loss a bit of majestic shine. According to appearance, even Feng Ming had to admit that even the hem of Lu Dan’s clothes, Rong Tian wouldn’t even have a chance to touch. In a second, all the inhalation of disbelief filled the entire room. It’s no wonder that Rong Tian said if he were a woman then the title of Most Beautiful Woman wouldn’t be taken by Mei Ji.

However, Lu Dan must be used to all the surprise looks by people already, so even when Feng Ming’s gang were observing and glancing, he only smiled freely. It took Feng Ming awhile before he could regain his mind and stuttered his lost words: “Adviser came from far away, I didn’t have time to welcome you, please sit down.” He turned around and yelled at Chiu Yue to pour the tea. At the moment, Chiu Yue just stopped her surprised stare that she couldn’t hide from Feng Ming, secretly stick out her tongue and slipped away.

"Duke Ming, the afternoon meal is already..."Chiu Lan stood behind Feng Ming, softly reminding him.

Feng Ming invited Lu Dan to eat lunch with him. Lu Dan, the person in front of them is like a perfection of god, making people feel that if one were to breathe hard he would disappear into thin air. Facing a beautiful person like him, even Feng Ming had to be careful, opening his mouth to speak had to be extremely polite.

Lu Dan slightly bowed: “It’s my honor.”

So while they were enjoying the meal, Feng Ming asked Lu Dan how much food supply he needed. Lu Dan replied that he needs 300,000 units. Feng Ming thought the number was okay because over the past two and three years, Xi Lei had gained about 2,000,000 units, but before he could answer, Rong Tian squeezed his hand and looked at him.

Rong Tian tells Lu Dan that he’s going to have to disappoint him since 300,000 units is a large

number and cannot meet his request. Rong Tian continued: “The food reserves for Xi Lei for ourselves is still difficult to meet. Helping out like this is already a bit much.” Glancing over at the wide opened mouth of Feng Ming who was about to cut in, Rong Tian robbed his words: “Since Adviser had came from thousands of miles away, I cannot let you go back empty handed. How about 30,000 units of rice? That amount should be enough for Dong Fan’s palace to pass this winter season.”

Lu Dan was silent for a long time and exhale softly: “But our people...” He didn’t continue, his thin lips tightly closed. His hurt expression in his eyes would make anyone give in.

Rong Tian also took a long sigh: “It’s not that I don’t want to help, but Xi Lei also have their

difficulties. Adviser, please don’t be sad and enjoy your stay here a few days.” After finishing, he lift up his bowl to give a sign for the guest to leave.

Lu Dan was stopped by the stubborn Rong Tian, he knew that he shouldn’t keep pressing the issue so he excuse himself first.

Feng Ming gaze followed after the him as he left, Rong Tian laughed: “How’s that, I did tell you that he’s a beautiful man, right? You keep on staring at him.”

"If I didn’t see him in person I wouldn’t believe that there was such a beautiful man like that in this world." Feng Ming inhaled deeply and asked: "How come you won’t agree to his request?"

"No gain, no reason, why would I lend him 300,000 units of food supply?"

Feng Ming glared at him: “Dong Fan traveled from thousands of miles away to ask for food supply, didn’t they reported you how much they were planning to ask?”

"They did."

"Then what did you say?" "It’s negotiable."

Feng Ming looked up and down at Rong Tian for a moment, shook his head in disapproval: “You are a King, you already promised causing that person to travel from afar and then swallow your

words. Rong Tian, that isn’t a way to be King.”

Rong Tian suddenly laughed: “I already promised to lend food supply for Dong Fan? It’s just a few words of ‘it’s negotiable’, it can’t be seen as breaking a promise.” He stretched his arms out to pull Feng Ming tightly into his embrace, laughing hearty beside his ears: “National affairs is so boring, how about we discuss something more interesting.”

However, Feng Ming was still thinking about Lu Dan: “Lu Dan must not leave Dong Fan palace often, if he has with his beautiful face, the whole world must have been in chaos already. Hey, tell me, do you think Dong Fan King and him...”

"No need to say it. If Dong Fan King were to insistently disregard a beautiful person like that

then he would be more of a dangerous person than Ruo Yan." Rong Tian asked: "Do you understand why I wanted you to meet Lu Dan?"

"Wasn’t it to learn his manners? But I have to tell you, Lu Dan already was born with that. I can’t possibly learn it all. For example, his eyes moving about that even Rong Hu lost his concentration. If you want me to change like that, I believe you should quickly bring that Most Beautiful woman of yours back here. Maybe she will have a better result."

Rong Tian placed Feng Ming onto his lap and bit him on his neck for punishment: “You jealous little devil you, I knew you would be envious of Lu Dan. Let’s talk about national affairs first,

what do you think about Lu Dan?”

"Beautiful to the point that it’s a crime. Seeing a beauty like that, even if one were to break their bones or tear their meat and all of their life given for him is still worth it. No one would want him to be disappointed." Feng Ming feeling resentful, glared up at Rong Tian: "Besides you! Food supply is overabundance, but you don’t want to help him!"

”And what else?”

Feng Ming saw that Rong Tian was not just fooling around so he thought a bit harder: “Lu Dan’s beautiful appearance could be a fatal weapon. From ancient times, beautiful people in the world is not something rare. Those of high status who prefer men are about half. If Lu Dan uses his power to gain Dong Fan an advantage, they will have the ability to become a huge enemy of Xi Lei.”

Rong Tian blew into Feng Ming’s ears: “But that Lu Dan, other than Dong Fan King, he extremely hate all kinds of men that appear in front of him. Not only do people outside don’t see him much, but I heard those who work inside Dong Fan palace also have a hard time meeting him. This is the first time he personally appear and coming to Xi Lei, it’s already an extreme honor for us to meet him.”

Feng Ming curiously asked: “Isn’t he the country’s adviser? Then what happens when he goes to court?”

"He covers his face." Rong Tian observed Feng Ming and continued: "This method is not bad. How about every time you meet the court officials you also cover your face. Only I can see your

face."

"You want me to die of boredom, right?" Feng Ming gave Rong Tian a punch to show his discontent.

Rong Tian of course accepted this sweet punishment. With one hand he held Feng Ming down so he wouldn’t escape, and the other hand he quickly slipped underneath Feng Ming’s clothes: “The title of country adviser is a huge position, Lu Dan isn’t just someone that the Dong Fan King love that could climb up to that position so of course he has to have some talent/skill. From

what I see, the importance of Lu Dan in the palace of Dong Fan is no different than Dong Fan

King, similar to your position here in Xi Lei.”

So Rong Tian tries to untie Feng Ming’s sash, he yells out: “You dare to remove my sash, I will....Tonight it’s my turn to be on top!” Feng Ming continued: “Lu Dan represent Dong Fan King. If you were to be stubborn, and the relation between the two countries build tension, it would be difficult for Xi Lei. I see that no matter what you should agree to their request. It’s regarding national affairs....v...v...” (I believe Rong Tian grabbed his member causing Feng Ming to jerk and cried out.)

Cai Qing was outside when she heard the scream: “Duke Ming, is there something that you need?” Without waiting for Feng Ming to answer, she rushed inside the room. When she looked

up, she saw Feng Ming’s blushing face. Because she just started working for Feng Ming, she wasn’t clear about the daily routine of the two men, so she awkwardly (didn’t know what to do?) but finally understood and quietly chuckled as she walked out.

"Let go!"

Rong Tian saw that Feng Ming was angry and embarrassed so he loosen his grip and bear the many painful bites of Feng Ming: “My mood today was good so I thought we could enjoy like this. Alright, don’t be mad, how about later tonight I’ll repay you.”

Feng Ming’s face reddened in embarrassment, and argued: “You...you think that I only think about that?”

Rong Tian tries to say that because of all the politics, he just want to loosen up a bit and blame that it’s just human necessity. Rong Tian continued: “You said Lu Dan has a beautiful appearance, but when I look at him, I only see 30,000 units of food. And one other thing.”

"What other thing?"

"Duke Ming had taught, heaven’s prophecy cannot reveal." Rong Tian stood up and readjust his clothes. He also called out for Chiu Lan to help him with his crown and then turned around to tell Feng Ming: "I already arrange Lu Dan a small room behind the Crown Prince’s residence. That place has a soothing environment and is close to you. If you want, you can go over there to start a conversation with him, but no matter what you cannot agree to lend food supply. If he mention it with you, you just tell him that you have to talk with me first." Without waiting for Feng Ming to

reply, Rong Tian lowered his head and softly kiss his forehead, gently said: "Later today I also need to meet General Tong, obediently wait and don’t roam around. The physician said that you haven’t fully recovered and your body is still weak. As for that maid, if you like then keep her. But if she already dare to steal your things then she isn’t a coward to retract. Don’t be alone with her when she serve you."

Rong Tian didn’t really leave the Crown Prince’s residence, but was just dealing with political affairs in another part of the vicinity. Feng Ming wanted to go visit Lu Dan, but then realized that since he traveled from afar he decided not to bother.

At the time, Chiu Xing and Chiu Yue showed Feng Ming the gifts that Dong Fan had given them,

including some fabrics that Dong Fan is famous for. They ask Feng Ming if he can reward them some. Feng Ming tells them to divide it among themselves and give some to Chiu Lan and Cai Qing to make some outfits too.

Chiu Xing tells him that the maids have a lot of outfits already and they just want to make an outfit for Cai Jiang. After they left, Feng Ming suddenly remembered and wanted them to bring some of the fabrics to Empress Dowager. Chiu Lan was nearby and said that she will do it since the other two are busy playing with Cai Jiang.

Feng Ming then wandered around the library, looking at book about geography of Xi Lei but got real bored. He start talking to himself and saying how he can’t even finish one book and yet

Rong Tian memorized all of them by heart. He states that since he is Duke Ming, he should be at least be of 50% of Rong Tian or else how can he help him.

Feng Ming end up taking a nap and when he woke up he only saw Cai Qing pouring him tea. When asked where the other maids are, Cai Qing said that Chiu Xing and Chiu Yue are busy

measuring Cai Jiang and Chiu Lan left for the Empress Dowager’s residence.

While answering Feng Ming, Chiu Lan came back and told Feng Ming that the gifts were given to Empress Dowager, but her voice sound as if she was crying.

Feng Ming thought that Empress Dowager didn’t like the gifts, but Chiu Lan said that she loves it and even reward her with some makeup supplies. When asked why she is crying then, she said: “The life of a maid everyone has to face bullying. Chiu Lan does not want to tally to Duke Ming. If Duke Ming wants to know, you can find Rong Hu, he also knows. Duke Ming, take a look.” Chiu Lan rolled up her sleeves, both of her arms were filled with bruises.

Feng Ming stood straight up and yelled: “Call Rong Hu here! Who dares to do this?”
