Duke Fenghao's butler nodded his head at Wu Huan before proceeding to take a sip from the wine himself. It was a ginger and rose flavoured wine so it was a little spicy and fragrant at the same time which was new to Wu Huan.

“Do you like it? This is a newly made wine that I had delivered all the way from the North border. You know right? They always have the best wines available.” Duke Fenghao's butler said.

“It is indeed very nice." Wu Huan said smiling.

The both of them smiled at each other and then continued to drink. Although he was drinking, Wu Huan remembered his weaknesses and quickly hit the side of his neck when he noticed he was already becoming dead drunk.

The next morning, Wu Tang woke up to the bright sun shining on his face. Closing his eyes tightly, Wu Huan sat up and glanced around groaning as the aftermath of him drinking finally started to get to him. Wu Huan looked around hoping that Duke Fenghao had not yet passed or else, his entire work would have gone down t

    Wu Huan continued to climb down the long stairs that led down till he reached the ground. Coming off the leader, Wu Huan stayed still as he looked around his dark surroundings trying to listen to if there was something around him before he put on some light so he could see. Listening for a few minutes, Wu Huan noticed there was nothing and quickly reached into his sleeve bringing out a fire box. Putting it on, Wu Huan looked around seeing it was like an underground cave. Since it was rare to ever see one, Wu Huan wondered where it led to. He had found an underground cave and it was most likely that the deed that Duke Fenghao had for the ancestral land was somewhere in the cave. Rather than exploring on his own, Wu Huan decided to wait until he was able to follow Duke Fenghao down here. The cave was so big and he had no idea what to expect so it was safer for him to wait a little. Turning around, Wu Huan proceeded to try climbing up when he heard someone come into the room.

    Zhi Hao smiled as the expression on his sister's face changed. Only she understood what he was saying. Smiling as he took his seat, Zhi Hao watched as the maids poured some tea for him while Han Ling continued to move around him. “Zhi Hao. You should be careful of what you say. This is the palace. Whatever you say can be used against you. Don't say rubbish all the time." Han Ying said. " What rubbish?” Zhi Hao asked pretending not to know what Han Ying meant. While Han Ying stared at him, Zhi Hao picked up his cup and drank from it. It was rare to see his sister. Ever since she returned, all she had ever been scheming for was how to drag him down. Although he wasn't sure how he was going to do it, he was going to find the person who was after all the deeds. Meanwhile, Wu Huan had been trapped under Duke Fenghao's room for more than five hours.

    Wu Huan entered inside and hugged Duke Fenghao's butler immediately making him suprised. Although he had been angry and suspicious of Wu Huan before, everything died immediately he saw Wu Huan hugging him as he thought Wu Huan was grieving his mother. “Don't miss your mother too bad. Bringing flowers and going to visit her, you have paid your filial respect." Duke Fenghao's butler said. Wu Huan raised his head a little as he wondered what was Duke Fenghao's butler was talking about. Just then, he was reminded of the fact that he had lied to Duke Fenghao's butler when he was going out. Not staying a word, Wu Huan continued to hug him out of relief. He had not expected it make it out in time. After wandering around the cave, he had almost gotten into trouble as he saw Duke Fenghao himself waiting by a corner. Because of that, he returned taking another path through the cave. It had been a long journey but he managed to make it back to the first shortcut. How he had managed to do it,

    Few hours later, Wu Huan woke up groaning as he looked around his surroundings. Even though he had just woken up, Wu Huan immediately remembered what has happened to him before. Shaking his head, Wu Huan tried to clear the fog gathering in front of his eyes as he looked around. His whole body was in pain as if he had been beaten up while he was asleep. Suddenly, Wu Huan heard the sound of someone coming near him which gave him intense headache. At this point, everything seemed to make his head hurt. “Are you awake, Prince Wu Huan?" Wu Huan heard a familiar voice and remebered seeing Duke Fenghao before he passed out. “Since when did you know?" Wu Huan asked. " Since when did I know that you were in my manor? Just this night. It was just now I understood. Why the prime minister suddenly called everyone and asked us to eat with him. At first I was so anxious that what he said might be true so I wanted to check on the deed. But you showed yourself. And I decided to make it a trap. I s

    “I don't really know what happened. When I realized that the prime minister had come in barging with his men, I wanted to move Wu Huan out of the cave. I untied him thinking that he was very weak and that I could move him without any problems. Just then, I was suprised when he actually defeated me. I was knocked unconscious and he escaped.” Duke Fenghao heard his bodyguard say and his eyes widened. “Are you actually telling me that Wu Huan is somewhere in that cave and that he is actually free?” Duke Fenghao asked before turning to look through the door. Meanwhile, Zhi Hao rode back in his carriage and returned back to his house. Just as he was about to enter, Zhi Hao stopped when he heard noises making him turn. Widening his eyes, Zhi Hao rushed immediately . “Lemme help you. How did you leave the cave?” Zhi Hao asked Wu Huan. “Aren't you the one who left the door open? I was able to leave thanks to you. If you hadn't waited, I won't have been able to enter your carriage.” Wu Hua

    Nan Cheng walked into the room bowing his head as he saw Song Huo's father for the first time. He wasn't alive but he wasn't dead either thanks to the magic they had cast on him and the ice that had been able to preserve his body. Walking inside, Nan Cheng stared at Song Huo's father who was lying in a coffin. Even if it was before his very two eyes, Nan Cheng couldn't believe it. It was impossible to do in the eyes of a normal physician but he had been trained by six different masters. “This is my father. The real emperor of Chu. Although I have been coronated and I am currently ruling, it's just for a short time till he comes back.” Song Huo said. “Using the method of opening the gate of heaven. Only by opening the gate of heaven and collecting the legendary honey dew from them can you bring a person to life.” Nan Cheng said. “There must be other ways too. The honey dew from the gate of heaven might not even be real. I am already looking into other ways. Help me save him first.”

After a while of the place being silent, Zhi Hao stared at Duke Fenghao. “You did it to spite me?" Zhi Hao asked. " Prime minister, I don't understand what you mean however I am a bit suprised that Wu Huan isn't by your side.” Duke Fenghao said making Zhi Hao angry as he stood up hitting his hand on the table. “You told Wu Huan about Yin Xue Yue's identity as your grandson. Because of what you did, Wu Huan got angry at me. Now there is no way I can find out who is behind the missing deeds.” Zhi Hao said. “There is no need to shout. You are the one that casued your own downfall. You and I have been a formidable team, haven't we? You then decided that you wanted to do things alone." Duke Fenghao said as he walked round Zhi Hao. “Work with you? There is no way I would ever do that. You already

Even when she saw that she had failed, Han Ying didn't stop. “Kill him. Make sure you kill him!" Han Ying said exposing herself while Han Ling remained calm. The royal guards that she had come with, immediately brought out their arrows showing their true intentions. Wu Huan saw the arrows being fired at Nan Cheng and immediately went to block it for him. The two of them blocked all the arrows watching it fall to the ground. But the more they blocked the arrows fired at

    “What? What did you say? Wu Huan is holding Duke Chengzhou hostage for his deed?” Han Ying asked as she stood up. Staring at her toys, Han Ling heard everything yet she didn't say anything and continued to play with her toys as if she wasn't concerned. “Has he gone mad? Let's go immediately." Han Ying said about to leave but stopped when she realized that her daughter was not with her. Turning back, Han Ying signaled her daughter to get in line and Han Ling stood up obeying immediately.

    Few seconds later, Wu Huan was rushing out of the house in order to go and find who had been behind everything from the beginning. This unknown person was finally ready to show his face which meant that Han Ling's suspicions had been correct. Anger blinded his eyes and all he wanted to do was to destroy that person. But just as angry as he was, he was also afraid. “Wu Huan." Wu Huan heard his name only after he had felt something grab him. Lifting his head up, Wu Huan turned and saw Zhi Hao. He had already forgotten about Zhi Hao who had followed him. Unlike Wu Huan who was blinded with rage, Zhi Hao was not. Therefore, Zhi Hao could see that it was a huge set up. “Where are you going? Don't you know that it's a trap?" Zhi Hao asked. " Trap or not, do you expect me to leave my sister and allow her to get killed?” Wu Huan asked. Hearing what Wu Huan said, Zhi Hao sighed knowing that there was actually no way that he could stop Wu Huan. Later that evening, Zhi Hao sent a message

    “ Who am I?" Han Ling asked as she laughed walking across the room. Wu Huan and Zhi Hao who had been watching her stood suprised as they watched Han Ling move to the window. Just then, the doors opened and the guards came in leading Duke Fenghao. After leading him inside, they left leaving him alone with Wu Huan and Zhi Hao. Glancing at the room, Duke Fenghao already knew something was wrong. “Your Majesty, what is happening here? Do you mind telling me?” Duke Fenghao asked as he looked around the room. “Duke Fenghao, Wu Huan is saying that someone kidnapped Princess Zhao Yao. Did you do it? I believe that you might be the one since you have a grudge against his family for stealing your family's deed.” Han Ling said. “Your Majesty, that's impossible. I would never do such a thing. At all. Even though it is true that he did steal our family's deed, I have no reason to kidnap his sister.” Duke Fenghao said. “But it won't be the first time you have done that. As I have heard, the pr

    Han Ling walked from her royal chair where she was supposed to be and walked to the window gazing through it. “In this palace, there are a lot of things that cannot be said. I only hope on others till I can gain my own power. There are a lot of things happening but I can't do anyone about it. Please help me.” Wu Huan heard Han Ling say. After remembering what Han Ling said, Wu Huan left the palace gate about to enter his carriage when he saw Zhao Yao hiding by a corner. Glancing around confused, Wu Huan stepped away from his carriage walking to where Zhao Yao was. “ What are you doing here? Hiding like that.” Wu Huan asked Zhao Yao. Few seconds later, Wu Huan and Zhao Yao stood in an alley talking. Wu Huan had dragged her hand immediately he saw that she had been holding a bag. “Where are you going?” Wu Huan asked Zhao Yao even though he he already knew the answer. Zhao Yao was leaving so suddenly. It could only he because she had heard something about Song Huo. At this moment,

    Shao Wen's eyes widened as he heard what Zhao Yao had said. Hearing that it was about the gate of heaven, Shao Wen drew closer near to Zhao Yao and glanced around to make sure no one was around. “Gate of heaven? Did you just say the gate of heaven? How is that possible? You don't think that Brother Song has something to do with this, do you? I can sincerely vouch for him. He would never do such a thing.” Shao Wen said immediately trying to convince Zhao Yao. Shaking her head, Zhao Yao sipped her tea before glancing at her cup as she dropped it down. She already knew that Song Huo wasn't behind it. “I know that he isn't the one behind it. You don't need to convince me otherwise.” Zhao Yao said. “Are you really not going to return back to Chu with me?” Shao Wen asked. Zhao Yao looked at Shao Wen and sighed not knowing if she was doing the right thing. At this moment, she knew it was better to reason with her head rather than her heart yet, she couldn't find herself doing it at al

    Glancing up at the ceiling, Han Ying took a deep breath before putting her head down. Lately, she was losing a lot to Zhi Hao and she didn't like it at all. Not wanting to comprise, Han Ying opened her mouth to speak but looked at her personal maid and saw her signal her to not do it. This was more than them just accepting whatever Zhi Hao said, her pride was slowly diminishing. Deciding to heed to her personal maid's warning, Han Ying looked at Han Ling and nodded her head. “Thank you, mother." Han Ying heard Han Ling say as her daughter jumped into her arms hugging her. “Thank you, Queen Mother." Zhi Hao said bowing his head as he smiled. Leaving the palace, Zhi Hao smiled as a part of his plan had worked. He was one step away from revealing the truth. Few days later, Zhi Hao set the trap he wanted in the palace without anyone knowing. Meanwhile, Han Ying was getting anxious by the minute every single day. Zhi Hao had told them that he was going to set a trap but he had not told
