Master Ye ran away from the palace while holding Marquis Lin. The head of the crime department was hot on his tail but that didn't stop Master Ye. Arriving at the busy capital streets, Master Ye stopped thinking of what route to take. He could run through the crowd but that would not necessarily stop the head of the crime department. Looking at Marquis Lin, Master Ye grabbed at a hat to cover Marquis Lin's face and they continued running. The head of the crime department was a very skilled person which made everyone worried whenever he was involved. Meanwhile, Wu Huan and his team left the area heading to where Song Huo and the rest had gone to capture the witnesses. Arriving at the place, the two teams met halfway. “We saw your signal. Were we wrong?” Shao Wen asked when he saw Wu Huan. “Yes. The prime minister was one step ahead of us. Were you able to capture the witnesses?” Wu Huan asked. “Yes. I killed them.” Song Huo said. “You killed them?” Wu Huan asked suprised as he loo
Han Ying watched as Xing Ming turned around walking towards her with his hands clenched into a fist. He had never hurt her before so she wasn't afraid. It's just that she was always flustered whenever she saw him this way. “What does that have to do with you? If you want to see your brother, I suggest that you stay out of the fight between me and my uncle. Just be a good empress. The way you have always been." Xing Ming said staring at her sternly before leaving. Han Ying fell the ground as Xing Ming walked away. Holding her chest, Han Ying cried as loud as she could as she thought about her brother. It had been twelve years. For twelve years, she had not heard or seen her brother. How was he doing? Was Xing Ming touring him every day? “Your Highness.” Han Ying heard her maids say as they rushed to meet her. They probably thought she was the most worthless empress in history. “Leave me alone!" Han Ying shouted at her maids watching as they left her immediately. Standing up by her
Xing Ming removed his cloak revealing his face before he sat down.“Today is the dragon boat festival. I wanted to bring some offerings to heaven. So, I came." Xing Ming said sitting down ." The capital is very lively. There must be a lot to celebrate about.” The old man said.“You can say that. I was happy before. Now, I am not." Xing Ming said.Just the way the palace was, the prime minister's manor was also the same. The manor was silent with no one celebrating. The dragon boat festival. Chen Wu Ying sat outside looking into the pond in front of him. The manor seemed to have died when they lost Wu Huan. Prime minister Zhou had taken care of him but there were some things that changed.“Damn you, Wu Huan!” Chen Wu Ying said throwing a pebble into the pond.What are you doing?” Chen Wu Ying heard Zhou Dong ask making him nervous as he stood up.“Nothing. I was just sitting down here.” Chen Wu Ying said.“Do you know what today is?” Zhou Dong asked.“Father, I know that today is the
After the emperor had given them their new names, Wu Huan and his friends had been dismissed. While the rest people were happy because of the honor bestowed by the Emperor, Wu Huan remained silent watching them all. The words of the emperor rang in his ears. “The dawn of the dynasty." This made Wu Huan realize how much the state needed him. He might not have his memories but he had seen the corruption done upfront with Marquis Lin's case. “Brother Wu. Just for today. Only today. Can we go to the brothel and have some drinks?” Nan Cheng asked smiling cutely as he tried to persuade his brothers. “Look at him. He wants to go the brothel. Do you know old you are?” Zhi Hao asked Nan Cheng. “No way. You want to drink and then, master finds out. Do you know what will happen to us? I don't even want to imagine that. All of us, can go to the brothel. But you, should go straight home.” Song Huo said pointing to tbe direction of the manor. “Since it is a celebration for everyone. Why don't w
Master Ye returned back to tell Xing Ming about the report after Wu Huan and his friends had gone to the tea house.“ That's good. I want them to get settled into the capital as soon as possible. Make sure everything is handled well so they can be known as the owners of the tea house immediately." Xing Ming said." Yes, Your Majesty.” Master Ye said.Zhou Dong had been coming from the palace in his carriage when he looked and saw that and empty manor had been occupied. Looking at his bodyguard, Zhou Dong asked.“They are brothers that just moved to the capital. I asked about them when I saw them a few days back. It seems they moved from the boarder down at the North.” Zhou Dong's bodyguard said.“North? They are our neighbors either way . Make sure you get Chen Wu Ying to go and say hi later on. It looks like they wi be Chen Wu Ying's age mate.” Zhou Dong said.“They are. At least, two of the brothers might be. I will tell him immediately. Your Highness, have you heard? Marquis Lin ha
Wu Huan turned turned to his friends looking concerned when he heard the way Chen Wu Ying had asked for his name. He didn't remember Chen Wu Ying neither did he know him.“Is there a problem, Your Highness?” Song Huo asked looking at Chen Wu Ying.“ I asked you a question. Is Wu Huan your name?” Chen Wu Ying asked desperately while his hands shakes at his side.The feeling of seeing Wu Huan again brought a lot of bad memories. Was he really Wu Huan? The Wu Huan that he had lived with?“Yes. My name is Wu Huan. Is there a problem?” Wu Huan asked looking at Zhi Hao.“No. There isn't. It's just that I was flustered for a while. You look like a boy I once knew. Are these your brothers?” Chen Wu Ying asked.“Yes. This is Zhi Hao. And then, Xiang Jun. Shao Wen, Yin Xue Yue and Nan Cheng.” Wu Huan said.“Nice. Very nice.” Chen Wu Ying said awkwardly.Even though Chen Wu Ying was trying his best not to show how awkward he was, the rest of the members couldn't forget his expression. Later on,
Zhi Hao turned looking at Wu Huan looking at him. Their gaze met each other before Wu Huan quickly removed his eyes. Narrowing his eyes as he stared at Wu Huan, Zhi Hao got up going to where Mr Ye and Wu Huan were making tea.“Why do I get the feeling that you two were saying something bad about me?" Zhi Hao asked smiling as he looked at the both of them.“Me? No, young master. What made you think that?" Zhi Hao heard Mr Ye ask but instead focused his gaze on Wu Huan.Wu Huan may have been good at lying but Wu Huan couldn't lie to him.“Are you sure? You weren't saying anything?” Zhi Hao asked cornering Wu Huan.“Stop. You are making me laugh." Wu Huan said pushing Zhi Hao back.“But, I didn't do anything though. Must be your conscience that's bothering you.” Zhi Hao said as he tickled Wu Huan making me laugh even harder.“Young Master, please don't play in the kitchen.” Mr Ye said trying to stop Zhi Hao as he saw Wu Huan laughing uncontrollably.“Hey! Do you want me to tickle you too
Wu Huan stood looking at Dai Chan not knowing what to say. She was right. One should never forget their past. Especially if they wanted to succeed. But right at this moment, all Wu Huan could think about were her eyes. They were so beautiful. “Your Highness, I know I agreed to us listening to your story. But, Wu Huan is right. We have to get going. Please forgive us." Zhi Hao said this time while Wu Huan continued to gaze at Dai Chan. “Fine. Since you are insisting, I will let you go.” Dai Chan said smiling at Wu Huan. Zhi Hao dragged Wu Huan out of the restaurant after they had said their goodbyes to Dai Chan. Only when they were outside in the streets did Zhi Hao hut Wu Huan to gain his attention. “Ouch! " Wu Huan cried looking at Zhi Hao. Turning around, Wu Huan realized at they had already left the restaurant. “Did we leave already?" Wu Huan asked Zhi Hao. “ I didn't expect you to notice. You were already in another world when she was talking to. I had to practically drag y
