Zi Yanwanted to reveal the truth behind He Di’s relations.h.i.+p with the pirates of DanLin, but after looking at the hopeful expressions on Duke Ming and the king’sfaces because of the newly acquired treaty, he decided to remain silent.
Thesituation between Xi Lei’s soldiers and the pirates was most understood by ZiYan. Even though he was shrewd and possessed manpower, Rong Tian, who did notpartic.i.p.ate in the previous encounter with the pirates, did not know the trueextent of Dan Lin’s rampant ferociousness.
Truthfully,it could be said that currently, even if Dong Fan, Xi Lei, and the Xiao Familywere to combine their strengths, they would still fail to withstand an attackby the invincible navy commanded by He Di.
Due to this,if their newly found hope was dashed by him letting out his grievances,bringing them back to their original hopeless situation, would there be anypoint?
Deep in his heart, hewas acknowledging the matter with He Di as his own responsibility.
Since he wasappointed as the special envoy, he had no choice but to use all his strength todeal with He Di. He had to make sure He Di would not prevent Duke Ming fromestablis.h.i.+ng a trading route for the sand.
“Zi Yan,” Feng Ming’svoice broke the silence, “don’t kneel anymore. Didn’t I already tell you thismatter was just a misunderstanding? The fight on the Aman River had nothing todo with you. Get up now and put your sword away. Have you eaten breakfast? Arethere still pastries leftover? Qiu Xing, go bring in some more pastries.”
“Yes, Duke Ming.” QiuXing replied agreeably with a smile on her face, but she still had yet to moveher feet.
Zi Yan stood up andput away his sword. Rong Hu had followed and stayed by Feng Ming’s side foryears, and since he has also married to Qiu Lan, of course he was too familiarwith his King desires to practice “Kung Fu” with Duke Ming. He cupped his handsand bowed to Rong Tian while saying, “Your Majesty, Zi Yan and I will go out toeat. After, we need to find Luo Yun to deal with Zi Yan’s position here,otherwise, the Xiao men will prevent him from going around. Besides, wesubordinates do not dare to further obstruct Your Majesty and Duke Ming’sdiscussion over military affairs.”
[TLN : seriously…the raw said ‘ 功夫- gōng fu’]
Military affairs?
When Feng Ming finally understood what he was implying, his whole faceturned red down to his neck.
RH: “Let’s go.”
For such an honest and frank guy, he unexpectedly said somethinghumorous. Even Rong Tian couldn’t help but smile while nodding his head inagreement.
Rong Hu patted Zi Yan’s shoulder and led him out of the room.
After they left, Qiu Xing closed the door behind them.
Feng Ming released a breath he was holding in and, unable to bear it anylonger, cheered in joy.
“The problem with Dan Lin is finally resolved, nowlet’s continue our breakfast!”
The two started to playfully feed each other again, proudly making thosewatching blush. Eventually, even Qiu Lan and the two girls couldn’t endure anylonger. Qiu Lan announced she was leaving to prepare lunch as she quicklyslipped away with the other two maids.
Finally, within the room remained only two people, Rong Tian and FengMing.
After a countless amount of heated kisses, the two parted from eachother, out of breath.
Snuggled up together, they intimately whispered sweet nothings to oneanother.
