Yee Len choked on his tea while the other bodyguard missed the log . His ax hit the ground instead . They were so shock, no one had ever brazenly go up to their Lord shouting nonsense .

Mua Kong gently sat the tea cup next to him, turned his head up to face Hli Ja with a gentle smile, "Mm . . I think I should teach you how to swim first . "

Hli Ja was dumbfounded, what he uttered came out of nowhere but it also make sense too . No one taught her how to swim . She had her fair share of bad luck with water but with that also followed by good fortunes . In the end, she could only mutter, "It"s good to see you again . "

Advertis.e.m.e.ntMua Kong gazed at Hli Ja with a gentle expression and tone, he replied, "Mm . . . It"s very good to see you again . . . too . "

Hli Ja frowned, "Did you knew earlier? Why didn"t you say anything?"

Mua Kong chuckled, "Then it wouldn"t be fun . "

She furrowed her brows for a brief moment and relaxed her face . After a moment of struggling what to do, she let out a big sigh and went to sit next to Mua Kong . She lazily turned her head over to look at Mua Kong . It was then that she noticed the man chopping woods who now was frozen giving them an idiotic smile . She looked at Yee Len who was behind Mua Kong . Yee Len had the same idiotic smile on too .

Hli Ja"s eye widened with a lost expression . Mua Kong looked at the direction she was staring at, "Ah . . They are my traveling companions . Sitting next to me is Yee Len and the one chopping woods over there is Chue Yi . " When they travel for investigation purposes, they usually introduced each other as traveling companions .

Hli Ja came back to her senses, she replied, "Hmm . . . . how long are you guys in town for?"

"For a couple weeks . " As soon as Mua Kong finished, Yee Len and Chue Yi"s jaw dropped . Didn"t their Lord said they were leaving this afternoon? It has only been a several hours and he already have a change of heart! Who is this woman before them? Their Lord has never talk this much to a woman before . When he came back from the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt six years ago, he was constantly working, on secret missions and was barely at home other than to report to the King . Mua Kong had refused to take marriages proposed by his father and refused to talk to all the potential future women . He always used the excuse of work and secret missions to get out of marriage talk . But with this woman, he"s a completely different man .

Grandma shouted through the window, "Why don"t boys take a bath while Hli Ja prepared dinner . Might be a little crowded with you three in the room . "

Hli Ja stood up, "Grandma, you . . . "

"I"ve prepared the extra room for them . Come prepared the food you brought home . I"m going to organize the herbal medicines for tomorrow . "

"Ok . "

The lights goes out, the narrator voice came on, "Four years gone by, Mua Kong traveled back and forth from the Kingdom Palace to the city Hli Ja lives in . Their love blooms over the course of the years . Finally, on the fourth year, Grandma became too old and pa.s.sed away . It was then Mua Kong brought Hli Ja to his place .

The King was furious, the son he wanted to rule the kingdom brought in a woman of unknown origins . The King had wanted him to marry the Prime Minister"s daughter, Pa Chee . They have position and power to help Mua Kong conquer the continent .

After years of investigations, they found out it was the Southern Kingdom that sent a.s.sa.s.sins to kill Mua Kong . The Southern Kingdom have a diviner who predicted that unless Mua Kong is killed off, their Southern Kingdom would fall . At this point, war is about to break out between these two kingdoms .

As far as the Northern Kingdom, their King and Queen was betrayed and killed by the King"s brother . It took 10 years for the former Prince to overthrow his uncle and rightfully take the throne back . The country is rebuilding itself back and is not much of a threat .
