WINNING WU HUAN'S FAVOR
While the empress and Shi Heng were talking, the empress's personal maid walked round the manor looking for Wu Huan. This was not the first time she had been here so it was easy for her to navigate her way through. The problem was she didn't know which place Wu Huan was occupying. Coming to the middle of a crossroad, the empress's personal maid just chose any road and decided to go along with it. After walking for a long time, the empress's personal maid decided to return back the same way she came. “Sure. I can take Chen Wu Ying along with me.” the empress said watching as Shi Heng became pleased with herself. While they were talking, the empress's personal maid arrived shaking her head as she gave signal to the empress. “Okay. I have to return back to the palace. The prime minister has gone to battle. I have to take care of His Majesty." The empress said. " Where is Wu Huan and Chen Wu Ying? Go and get them ready for the empress.” Shi Heng said. A few seconds later, the maids a

SEED OF JEALOUSY
Immediately he entered the brothel, Xing Ming saw the place was fuller than usual. Glancing around, Xing Ming tried to look for Dai Chan. Back in the palace, he had heard that Dai Chan became the new mistress of the brothel. Even then, he was not able to come see her to congratulate her. Some of the girls recognized him making their eyes widened. One of the girls went running to tell Yu Bai. “Really? His Majesty is here?" Yu Bai asked happy to finally have the chance to please the emperor. Once she becomes the emperor's consort, she won't have to put up with that annoying Dai Chan or better yet, she would have the opportunity to finally teach that annoying little girl a lesson. Meanwhile, Dai Chan was in her room doing her makeup when she saw Yu Bai running down the stairs in a hurry. “Where is she running to?" Dai Chan asked the girl who was doing her makeup. “I don't know, Miss Dai." Dai Chan heard the girl answer making her sigh. She had asked such a question when the girl had

SEED OF JEALOUSY (2)
The empress saw Xing Ming talking to the emperor and became worried. The high priest had caused a lot of trouble in the late emperor's time and now, he was having private talks with Xing Ming.“High priest, I didn't see you in the court meeting. What are you doing here right now?" The empress asked." There is no need for you to be hostile, mother. The high priest was just talking to me.” Xing Ming said.“Remember what I told you, Your Majesty.” The high priest said leaving.The empress watched the high priest staring at him intensely until he left.“What was the high priest telling you?” The empress asked.“Why are you anxious? Are you afraid that he might spill your secrets?” Xing Ming asked.“Zhou Xing Ming. Don't think that because you have become the emperor, you can talk to me however you like. I won't allow you too.” The empress said sternly making Xing Ming afraid. He had always been afraid of his mother just as much as he loved her.“ Fine. He just told me that if I want some

ZHOU DONG'S MANOR
Zhou Dong left Xing Ming and the empress to continue taking while the empress continued to get frustrated with her son. Xing Ming wasn't usually this stubborn. “Fine. I don't want you to faint here and then, I would be seen as an unfilial emperor. Mother, you know I don't want to fight with you, right? I just don't want to collect the seal now.” Xing Ming said switching his techniques to calm his mother. His mother was an empress. A very stubborn phoenix who they believed came from the heavens. For him, she was just a stubborn woman who would do anything to get her way. Arguing with her certainly wouldn't help. “His Majesty is right. Your health is mofe important, Queen Mother." The Empress Dowager's personal maid said supporting Xing Ming. “How I worry about my health now? Can't you see how stubborn he's behaving lately? He's not listening to a single thing I'm telling him.” The empress said . “Your Majesty, in my opinion, I think you should put Her Highness's worries to res

ARRIVAL OF THE NEW EMPRESS
Just as Zhou Dong expected, Madam Shi's visit wasn't for anything good. It was now time for dinner and Madam Shi's eyes were almost about to kill the little boys as she was constantly staring at them. Wu Huan noticed it but he didn't care. Ever since he had suggested the adoption of another child in the manor, his days had become numbered.“ Are these the boys you adopted?" Madam Shi asked." Yes. This is Chen Wu Ying. And that is Wu Huan.” Madam Shi heard Zhou Dong say and stared at Wu Huan.It was just as she had heard about him. Wu Huan appeared to be a gentle, silent boy who could do no wrong. Unfortunately, she's knew better. The silent ones were the most devilish ones.“ Greetings grandmother." Chen Wu Ying said standing up to greet Shi Heng's mother.“Who is your grandmother? The only grandchildren I have are the ones that Shi Heng gives birth to.” Madam Shi said.“Mother in law.” Zhou Dong said trying to talk to Madam Shi.“Mother." Shi Heng said grabbing her mother's hand but

DIASTER AT THE BANQUET
“You are now the prime minister. Of course they just attend your banquets from now on. But I don't understand. Why are you trying to set up the Emperor with Lord Kaifeng's daughter?” Shi Heng asked. “ Who said I wanted to set the Emperor with Lord Kaifeng's daughter? I am just holding a banquet for him. Why don't you go and check out what is supposed to be done in the kitchen?” Zhou Dong asked. Shi Heng nodded her head leaving Zhou Dong alone. Her relationship with her husband was getting worse by the moment. He didn't even seem to want to talk to her as much as before. “Shi Heng, what are you doing?” Madam Shi asked when she saw Shi Heng coming from Zhou Dong's room. “I have to go and check what needs to be done." Shi Heng said. " Everything has been done accordingly. You must not go missing. Stay in the crowd.” Madam Shi said. “Will this work? What if Zhou Dong has it investigated?” Shi Heng asked afraid as she looked at her mother. “All they will find is nothing. Don't worry

UNKNOWN PLACE
(Present)Wu Huan was practicing his shooting at the archery range. The more he practiced, the better he was becoming. Shooting once, twice, Wu Huan stopped walking to look at the score. It was good but still not good enough. Since morning, he had been practicing hard, hopefully, he would become better. A lot of years had passed and he has grown. Now, he was already 18 years. “You have been shooting arrows since dawn. Why don't you come and practice the saber with me?" Zhi Hao asked walking into the archery range. “You know that I can't even hold the saber. You are very strong so you can lift it up. I can't.” Wu Huan said as he removed the arrows he had shit before. “The weekly assessment is about to start. If I don't practice well, I will get punished and you will have to get punished with me. How about this? Let's practice together. You can shoot your arrows and I will yield my saber.” Zhi Hao said . Wu Huan agreed immediately and the both of them started sparing together. The b

STANDSTILL
The next morning, Wu Huan and his friends woke up to see the whole place had been cleaned. “Who do you think it's doing this.? Did any of you do this? Clean the place?” Zhi Hao asked looking at the younger ones. “I was the one that cleaned the place. Everywhere was so dirty that I couldn't sleep well. So I came in the middle of the night to clean everything. It was so dirty.” Yin Xue Yue said “ Then, have you seen anyone coming in the middle of the night while we have been sleeping?" Wu Huan asked. " Why are you asking? Do you think that people have been coming here while we are sleeping?" Yin Xue Yue asked suprised. " I am not so sure yet. But, everyone knows that this isn't the first time this is happening. See? The foods have been restocked again.” Wu Huan said. “So what if they have been restocked? Do you want to leave? We are all here because we have agreed to become a part of the emperor's group. We want to serve Zhou. Don't you want to serve Zhou?” Song Huo asked. “You a

THE PALACE
Just as Yin Xue Yue was about to finally slash Nan Cheng, Nan Cheng fell to the ground unconscious. Everyone rushed into the arena including their master. Yin Xue Yue was suprised at the outcome and raised his hand up immediately.. “I didn't do anything. I didn't. Why did he faint?” Yin Xue Yue asked. “This match shouldn't have gone on for long. Take him to his tent. The rest of you should take the day off. Continue practicing though." Wu Huan heard their master say and all of them bowed their head. “Master seems to have a weak spot for Nan Cheng. Haven't the rest of you noticed it yet?" Shao Wen asked as they saw their master leaving to go to Nan Cheng's tent. “Nan Cheng is sick. If it were you, wouldn't you not have a weak spot for him too?" Zhi Hao asked. " Yin Xue Yue, what exactly did you do to Nan Cheng? We have always practiced together. No one has ever made Nan Cheng faint like today.” Song Huo said scolding Yin Xue Yue. “I really didn't do anything. I didn't even use my

LANDS
Han Ying came out the door holding her head up high even if probably everyone knew that her husband was sleeping with the maid inside. Maybe everything would stop if she just placed her feet down and dealt with the maids. “Greetings Empress.” Han Ying heard Dai Chan say bowing down. . “Are you going to see His Majesty? I think that you shouldn't. Time has proven that no man can ever be faithful. You are no longer the only most favoured Consort.” Han Ying said. “Your Highness, I don't understand what you are talking about. His Majesty is a man. There has never been a time in history that an emperor didn't have consorts. So I am not going to care even if he continues to sleep around.” Han Ying heard Dai Chan say. “You are twisted. You and His Majesty. No wonder the both of deserve each other." Han Ying said watching as Dai Chan bowed her head before she left. After Han Ying had gone, Dai Chan went straight to the emperor's palace. When she had first married into the palace, she had
