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
Han Ying had been playing with the other children out in the field so she hadn't noticed when Zhi Hao and his friends passed. After an hour of trying to make the children leave her, Han Ying was finally able to escape. “Your Highness, your hair is all messy." Han Ying heard her personal maid say making her laugh. “I don't mind. It's for the children after all. No need to start redoing my hair. I will just put it up in a simple way. It will take us a lot of time of we are to redo it." Han Ying said putting her hair up in a normal big bun before placing all her hairpins on them. “Your Highness is still very beautiful. This hairstyle seems to fit you more the the formal hairstyle.” Han Ying heard her maids say making her laugh. When she entered inside, Han Ying was still laughing until she entered inside. Seeing Xing Ming introducing some people to the Empress Dowager, Han Ying rushed to go and stay by his side. Only when she got there that she did see Zhi Hao. He was the guy that ha
Song Huo watched Wu Huan scream on the top of his lungs feeling sorry for him. He was the one that had forced Wu Huan. He forgot that things like that shouldn't have been forced. Song Huo took a step forward wanting to go and comfort Wu Huan when he felt a hand on his shoulder stopping him. “Don't do it, Brother Song. Better now or never." Yin Xue Yue said. Song Huo turned looking at Wu Huan seeing how Wu Huan was already crying. This time, he felt Yin Xue Yue was right. These are the things that Wu Huan would have to do sooner or later since he is the team's leader. Glancing at Wu Huan one more time, Song Huo turned round with Yin Xue Yue leaving. While Wu Huan continued crying, the gates of the manor opened and Zhi Hao, Xiang Jun, Shao Wen and Nan Cheng entered. Xiang Jun was the first one to notice Wu Huan crying. Although the place had been dark, Xiang Jun had good eyesights seeing as Wu Huan had tried to quickly wipe his tears away. “Brother Zhi." Xiang Jun said tapping Zhi H
“Your Majesty, don't you think that might have acted rashly this time? The entire capital is now blaming Liming." Master Ye said while Xing Ming continued to paint. Luckily, he had managed to calm down his officials. Them panicking would only cause him stress which was not what he wanted at this moment. “Don't panic too. Their damaged reputation is only for a while. The public are just like dogs. Once they don't have food, they will rebel naturally. Once you feed them, they would start to follow you while wagging their tail. All we need to do is to make them do something that the public will like.” Xing Ming said rolling his eyes before he returned his focus back to his painting. Wu Huan woke up the next day getting of bed. Standing up, Wu Huan held his two hands up stretching. Having some sleep had done him a little bit of good. Of course he wasn't so easy to just forget that you had slaughtered a whole family. During the early hours of the night, the nightmares had haunted him. T
