The Princess And The Lord

Zhao Li Xin only nods faintly as respond, Ming Yue Yin smile amicably "How can we not accept your kind invitation First young master Sanguan" Ming Yue Yin said ambiguously. Everyone knows that Zi Yu Tong's atrocious behavior toward Empress Ming and there also the situation where the Sanguan family honor guest is humiliated during the auction a few days ago so it's obvious their relationship is not good.

Sanguan Wu Ci is unfazed he already knows about Long Ming and his companion temperament and empress Ming also famous to have an impulsive temperament she also known for being a merciless monarch is no wonder someone like her would not easy to be coaxed.

"Empress Ming, I hope you can forgive for what happened that day, is not my intention to anger you, we assure that Zi Yu Tong has been punished accordingly" Sanguan Wu Ci calmly said, he also hated that useless and stupid Zi Yu Tong he wants to get rid of him for a long time but his mother loves her brother too much, thankfully because of this incident he can use this reason to send Zi Yu Tong away even though this is only for temporary but it will give him more time to find a way to get rid Zi Yu Tong once for all.

"You are very thoughtful master Sanguan" Ming Yue Ying faking her smile, what a joke if not because Zhao Li Xin and the other was there Zi Yu Tong would get away only with a few bruised and broken ribs.

From the outsider perspective, the two of them seem to exchange in nice conversation however for Lory and the others, they could see the invisible electric spark between Ming Mue Yin and Sanguan Wu Ci.

"Empress Ming, my name Yun Xue Liang I'm the fifth princess of Yunmo Kingdom, is an honor to meet you personally" Yun Xue Liang stride toward Ming Yue Yin then cupped her fist elegantly.

Ming Yue Yin shift her glance at the beautiful woman in front of her, the flickered in Yun Xue Liang yes told her that this princess is not simple, Ming Yue Yin smile "So you are princess Youya, you are more beautiful than the rumor said"

Yun Xue Liang bows her head shyly "Please don't joke on me, my appearance is nothing compare to her majesty exquisite beauty" secretly she sizes up Ming Yue Yin, and she not disappointed Empress Ming is like hat she's imagined, she is beautiful, smart, cunning and very strong, she will not surprised if Ming Yue Yin hide her real cultivation right now because she can only feel heavenly king level cultivation from her.

While everyone exchanged pleasantries, Zhao Li Xin swept his gaze all around him, he wonders if this place is his birthplace? The place is no bad but he can't stop thinking that this place is similar to the Jiang Wei Kingdom, the similarity is not about the sizes but mostly about the environment and the people.

Is a magnificent place to live in, The screen wall, the floor, the pillar and everything else are made from expensive material everything decorated meticulously and beautifully however the people that lived in this place have the same expression with the people who lived in the Jiang Wei kingdom palace.

Zhao Li Xin saw Madam Zhao is staring at Li Mo Zhen and the others viciously, then next to her Ruan Qiao Qin gaze filled with hatred and envy, the concubines have sly smiles hidden behind their thick makeup but not from Zhao Li Xin keen observation, it's funny how similar noble family household looks like no matter where they are.

if he grew up in this place Zhao Li Xin was certain that his personality would be not much different from now and his life might not be better than when he lived in Jiang Wei Kingdom palace, depending on how good his mother position in the family if his mother position is low then Zhao Li Xin may still end up as everyone targets of hatred. it seems he was destined to have this kinda personality.

"Li Xin, what's wrong?" Lory clasped their hand together.

"Nothing" the coldness around him lessen when he looking at Lory.

"If you don't want to be here, we can't leave," she notices the change in Zhao Li Xin's mood perhaps because this place is the place he was born so is understandable if Zhao Li Xin disturbed a little after all he is still a human.

Besides the people in this lace might be involved with the death of Zhao Li Xin's mother's death, Lory would not believe that a woman with a newborn baby would run across the continent if her life is not in danger. Something must have happened and the people inside this place may be responsible for what happened.

The warmth from her little hand and the genuine concern in her eyes make him feel like eating a jar of honey, his princess is always been the sweetest "You worry too much…" he gently said while caressing the back of her hand with his finger to assured her but his simple touched send electric feeling through all her body and suddenly her cheek feel hot.

'This dam* flirty man!' Lory cursed inwardly, but that doesn't mean she hated it.

Sanguan Wu Ci saw the intimated interaction between Lory and Zhao Li Xin, he realizes Lory didn't look at him even a second since she came and somehow he feel annoyed. Zhao Li Xin suddenly lifts his head then suddenly Sanguan Wu Ci and Zhao Li Xin's gaze interlocked, he might indifferent to human interaction but that doesn't mean he doesn't understand what Sanguan Wu Ci thinking.

Sanguan Wu Ci doesn't have time to avert his gaze so he throws a polite smile towards Zhao Li Xin but is too late to pretend in front of Zhao Li Xin, he already saw the shimmer in Sanguan Wu Ci eyes when he looking at Lory and he doesn't like it one bit.

Zhao Li Xin sends him a warning gaze but Sanguan Wu Ci smiles as he refused to back down, as a proud young master how could he yield with a simple threat. Zhao Li Xin stifles "Interesting…" he mutters. 

"What?" Lory hears something, she lifts her head abruptly and stares at him with a blank look "You say something?"

The trouble maker stare at him foolishly, she never believes him if he said she could get a bunch of admirer with her look, she always looking at him like he was crazy and know this is happening, Zhao Li Xin wants to know if Lory always dense like this? Well the answer is 'Yes'

In this world only Lory who keeps persisting against him all the time and never failed to gain victory, Zhao Li Xin flick Lory nose lightly "You lucky you are beautiful" he snorts.

Lory frowns while rubbed the tip of her nose confusedly, should she say sorry or thank you?

Not long after the atmosphere around them suddenly hyped up and few people seem got excited, then suddenly a middle-aged man with bright green robes and silver crown tied his knotted hair neatly. The man is in the early fifty, he got a charismatic and stern expression that could make people nervous but what shocked Lory the most is how similar that man is to Zhao Li Xin.

And not only Lory who think like that Bei Li Yan, Jin Hao, and the others also think the same, there no need to test their blood it's clear as daylight that they are related even the coldness in their eyes almost the same, only the old man filled with greed while Zhao Li Xin got nothing in his eyes.

Lory tightened her grip on his hand while maintained her expression, the old man stride towards Zhao Li Xin. Sanguan Wu Ci bows his head "Father" he greets politely.

"Old Master sanguan" Yun Xue Liang greet courteously

"Princess Youya is a nice surprise to have you here her highness" he gives respectful nods. Yun Xue Liang is one of the women he took an interest to marry his Son, she is beautiful, gentle and part of the royal family even the Emperor fond of her with this his Son would gain a lot of benefits. 

"Father this is Long Ming" sanguan Wu Ci said "And this one is empress Ming and –" while he continues to introduce Zhao Li Xin companion the old man eyes fixed on the Zhao Li Xin. He grew silent while their eyes meet each other, there something familiar about the young man in front of him.

"You are Long Ming," he asks.

"Yes, and you are?" his voice remains cold and indifferent.

"Sanguan Jin Sheng" he answers.

Zhao Li Xin raised his chin slightly "We finally met Master Sanguan"

Sanguan Jin sheng frowned, he feel there's something wrong about his words "Have we met before?" 

"Just by your reputation" Zhao Li Xin remain calm, there's no anger or sadness in his voice when facing someone who probably his birth father and involved in the death of his birth mother also the reason why he was poisoned from a baby, why he is stranded at Jiang Wei kingdom and the reason why he had suffered for years.

Should he mad, blamed him, hate him? No, he wouldn't because that kinda feeling only exist when you have expectation however Zhao Li Xin have nothing for his birth family other than curiosity about the person who had hurt him and why he got interested with his background now that is because Huwang Shen Zi said he is the last descendant of the first King Lei Yu. Are the people who harmed him know about this too, but why they want him to kill him?

All this question filled his mind because of one reason and that is Lory, he want to know if his background means anything for her and if it does, what's that supposed to mean, is that mean he could save her?

"Master Long Ming can we talk, there something important I need to ask from you" Sanguan Jin Sheng said abruptly.

Zhao Li Xin's eyebrows behind the mask raised slightly, he does get intrigued "Sure…" he casually replies.

"Let find somewhere more private" Sanguan Jin Shen sign him to follow him.
