<strong>25 Hua Xiu Yi in Trouble</strong>


    “Master, Yue empire’s delegates are already on their way to Feng empire!” An Yi reported to his master. This time, Yue empire wasing to Feng empire to denounce master for his crimes.


    “En, do we know what is Yue empire’s ns?” Feng Yi Xuan asked.


    “Yes, we have!” An Yi felt as his head was numb as bit the bullet as he answered. To find out this matter, they sent out several of Ghost Realm’s assassins to sneak into Yue empire’s entourage but what they found will certainly make master angry.


    “Because the emperor of Yue empire knows the princess was killed because of the Princess Consort, Yue empire’s Crown Prince hase with this entourage. He ns to marry our Princess Consort to torment!” An Yi announced with rage. What kind of person was their Prince Ming manor’s princess consort. How could such filthy people covet her? And from what the intelligence report said, if Feng empire doesn’t give out the princess consort, Yue empire will put the me on Princess consort, making Princess Consort into a femme fatale.


    “They dare!” Feng Yi Xuan knocked over the desk in the study, a storm raging in his eyes. Is his Nian Nian to be coveted by such scum? And to have such designs. Even if An Yi didn’t say it clearly, Feng Yi Xuan knew of Yue empire’s filthy designs.


    “Yue empire’s delegates encountered bandits through the mountains of Yue empire. Yue empire’s crown prince as well as the delegates died at the hands of the bandits!” Feng Yi Xuan’s profound violet eyes shed with potent killing intent. Looking into those eyes, one seemed to see a mountain of corpses and blood...


    “Yes!” An Yi immediately withdrew to make arrangements. Their brothers of the Ghost Realm already desired to kill this Yue empire that covets their Princess consort. They were only waiting for master’s word.


    Feng Yi Xuan’s arrangement was for the best. It vented his anger and got rid of the scum who coveted Nian Nian. At the junction of Yue empire there was indeed a group of brutal bandits. Even if those people died, it was in Yue empire’s boundaries and had nothing to do with Feng Empire. No one will suspect Feng empire.


    Lan You Nian was reviewing documents form Wu Qing Pavilion. Suddenly, from outside You Nian Pavilion came the sounds of fighting. From the sounds of it, Lan You Nian knew someone must have barged into You Nian Pavilion and was intercepted by Zhang Lin and the others.


    “Young miss, I will go take a look!” Lan Feng charged out with her sword in hand. Lan You Nian followed behind her. It’s been so long. Very few people were so blind as to look for trouble with You Nian Pavilion.


    When Lan You Nian and Lan Feng came out of You Nian Pavilion, they saw a man in ck stealth outfit heavily injured as he was surrounded by Zhang Lin and the other guards. It was telling that man’s martial arts were very good but because of the injuries on his body, his movements were slower.


    Lan You Nian felt this man was familiar. After taking a careful look, wasn’t this man Hua Xiu Yi’s shadow guard A’Mu? Why has hee to Feng empire? to Lan manor? Though Lan You Nian was heartless, Feng Yi Xuan already told her, she was able to be cured of her poison with Hua Xiu Yi’s help, giving her such precious and priceless herb as the Heavenly Celestial Grass without a care to the dangers. Lan You Nian remembered this kindness. Feng Yi Xuan will remember this this favor. For Lan You Nian, Hua Xiu Yi was an old friend.


    “Stop!” Lan You Nian eximed. But Zhang Lin’s sword was unable to be retracted as it charged towards A’Mu. Lan You Nian grabbed Lan Feng’s sword and flew over to A’Mu’s side, flicking away Zhang Lin’s sword. If Lan You Nian waste a step, A’Mu will certainly be gravely injured.


    “Young miss!” Zhang Lin jumped in fright. He naturally heard young miss’s voice but was unable to retract his hand. If he hurt some important people because of his errors, a thousand deaths cannot absolve him of his me.


    “It’s fine! I made a sound too suddenly. It’s not your fault. You may withdraw!” Lan You Nian returned the sword to Lan Feng and waved her hand to let Zhang Lin and the others leave. Lan You Nian could tell A’Mu had some matter to tell her that shouldn’t be overheard.


    When Zhang Lin and the others withdrew, A’Mu suddenly knelt on the ground, his gaze despairing as he said, “Please ask Lan junzhu to lend a saving hand to save the Crown Prince from danger!”


    “Something’s happened to Hua Xiu Yi?” Lan You Nian asked in surprise. In their intelligence, they still received news of Hua Xiu Yi’s matters. Lan you Nian only knew Hua Xiu Yi was currently fighting for power with his imperial father. She didn’t expect him to encounter trouble. From A’Mu’s expression, she can tell Hua Xiu Yi’s current situation wasn’t very good.


    “Yes, Crown Prince is currently fighting for imperial power with Hia Majesty. Orginally the power was equally divided between them but after Crown Prince was gravely injured after stealing the Heavenly Celestial Grass from the imperial pce, Crown Prince was surrounded and attacked by the imperial guards when attending a pce banquet, Crown Prince was caught by the Emperor. Now his life or death is unknown!” A’Mu med himself for the Crown Prince’s situation. As a shadow guard, he wasn’t able to protect his master, “This subordinate escaped from the imperial guards and raced to Feng empire while being pursued by the Emperor’s subordinates. The Crown Prince doesn’t have any friends, but this subordinate boldly begs Lan junzhu to lend a hand, considering the Crown Prince has saved Lan junzhu.”


    “Such a thing happened?” Lan You Nian didn’t expect that man to be in grave danger. As a friend or savior, Lan You Nian could not ignore and turn a blind eye. But this matter not only involved some act of kindness, it involved matters between empires. She can’t rashly charge over to Hua empire.


    “Lan Feng, take him and bandage him up!” Seeing A’Mu’s anxious expression, Lan You Nianforted him, “Rest assured, Hua Xiu Yi saved this junzhu, this junzhu is not ungrateful. But this matter requires some nning, so you must nurse your injuries first!”


    A’Mu knew his situation wasn’t optimistic. Hearing Lan junzhu’s promise, A’Mu’s heart rxed. He was uneasy all the way to Feng empire. He knew it was irrational to ask for help from Lan junzhu. There was no friendship between Hua empire and Feng empire. And Lan junzhu was Prince Ming’s fiance. But remembering Crown Prince’s unusual behavior towards Lan junzhu, A’Mu believed there was no other person to ask for help from and came to Feng empire to try his luck. He didn’t expect this Lan junzhu to agree without any hesitation. It was rare to have such a faithful woman. It was no wonder Crown Prince always thought about her.


    When Lan Feng took A’Mu to bandage his wounds, Lan You Nian went into the pavilion to put on a cloak and sat on Lan manor’s carriage to find Feng Yi Xuan. This wasn’t a small matter. Lan You Nian needed to discuss it with Feng Yi Xuan to make her decision.


    Lan You Nian Feng Yi Xuan was in the pce. Because Lan You Nian was the Empress’s best friend, as well as the little sister and sister-inw the Emperor himself had recognized, as well as Prince Ming’s fiance, she can directly enter the pce. Like Prince Ming, she can enter the pce in a carriage. This honor made many children of official families red-eyed with envy.


    After entering the pce, she learned Feng Yi Xuan was in the imperial studey with Feng Xia Qi discussing court matters. Though Lan You Nian knew she could enter the imperial study, but as a woman, as well as a princess consort, Lan You Nian told the eunuch outside the imperial study to let Prince Ming pick her up from the Empress’s pce when he came out. Lan You Nian then directly headed towards Yue Bai Lian’s ce.


    “Why have youe to my ce today?” Yue Bai Lian rose from her phoenix throne the moment she saw Lan You Nian. The two were like good sisters as they sat in the imperial gardens admiring flowers and chatting. Even if Yue Bai Lian was now the mistress of the imperial harem, she didn’t put on airs with Lan You Nian, even her motives from the beginning have not changed.


    “Haha, I came to find Xuan. They’re busy in the imperial study so I came to see you. What? Not weing?” Lan You Nian pretended to be angry as she pulled on Yue Bai Lian’s hand, her nose wrinkled, appearing very endearing.


    “How is that possible?” Yue Bai Lian thought it was for real as she hastily exined, “I hope you cane every day. If I wasn’t afraid Prince Ming will get jealous, I hope you can stay in the pce for some time!” Yue Bai Lian would often leave the pce with Feng Xia Qi to visit Lan manor. They can be considered the most different Emperor and Empress in history.


    “Hhaha!” Lan You Nian chuckled embarrassedly. Feng Yi Xuan really loved to eat vinegar but she liked this feeling of being in someone’s heart, so the both of them was one person willing to hit and the other willing to bear it.


    “What about you? Are you living well? How does Xia Qi treat you?” Lan You Nian asked with concer. As a friend and as a sister, Lan You Nian was greatly concerned for Yue Bai Lian. In Lan You Nian’s eyes, Yue Bai Lian was from her maiden family.


    Hearing Lan You Nian’s concern, Yue Bai Lian’s face carried a smile. Thinking there was only a single mistress in the pce and there wasn’t anyplicated inner conflicts, and Feng Xia Qi showed great care for her and never made things difficult for her, the two of them mutually respected and loved one another. How many women were able to have such a life?


    “I am well, I am happy!” Yue Bai Lian’s face carried a gentleness that has never appeared on her face. Lan You Nian knew Yue Bai Lian to be telling the truth. It looks like it was a good thing the two were together.


    “What? Is Nian’er standing on Bai Lian’s side?” Ffng Xia Qi and Feng Yi Xuan walked into the imperial gardens and overheard Lan You Nian’s question and couldn’t help tease her.


    Feng Yi Xuan sat down beside Lan You Nian. Feng Xia Qi sat beside Yue Bai Lian. The four people became the most beautiful scenery in the gardens, more lovely than the charming flowers.


    “Can’t you see? Though you are Xuan’s brother, I am Bai Lian’s maiden family. If I know you bullied Bai Lian, hmph!” Lan You Nian raised her small fists, making Feng Yi Xuanugh.


    Feng Xia Qi pulled Yue Bai Lian’s hand, dering his innocence, “When did I bully Bai Lian? It would be good if Bai Lian doesn’t bully me!”


    They burst intoughter. This feeling of having friends and family and lovers in their life was really blissful...


    “You came to the pce to see me. Has something happened?” Feng Yi Xuan asked. Usually Nian Nian wouldn’t search for him so urgently. Nian Nian showed her care for him but most of the time, she won’t interfere with his matters, though he hoped she would involve herself in all of his matters.


    All the people present were their own people so Lan You Nian didn’t conceal anything as she told them what A’Mu told her.


    “Xuan, I’m going to go save Hua Xiu Yi. Will you be angry?” Lan You Nian knew Feng Yi Xuan doesn’t have any good feelings for Hua Xiu Yi, but whether it was the herb or saving her from the trapst time, LAn You Nian owed it to Hua Xiu Yi. So even if Feng Yi Xuan will get angry, she will go to Hua empire but Lan You Nian didn’t want there to be any secrets or misunderstandings between the two of them.


    “What are you thinking?” Feng Yi Xuanughed humorously as he knocked on Lan You Nian’s forehead, “Why would I be angry at you? You are safe and sound by my side. It was all thanks to Hua Xiu Yi’s help. I once said if he was able to obtain the herb, I was willing to help him take Hua empire’s throne!”


    Feng Yi Xuan wasn’t a good person. From many matters, he was a bad person but with anything that concerned Nian Nian, Feng Yi Xuan had a sincere heart. He knew of Hua Xiu Yi’s feelings for Nian Nian. If Hua Xiu Yi was a covetous person, Feng Yi Xuan didn’t need others to make the move and would get rid of Hua Xiu Yi. But clearly Hua Xiu Yi was not. He was someone who understood how to bless others, the same as his imperial brother. Feng Yi Xuan, from a certain angle, admired Hua Xiu Yi, so whether it was because of that kindness or other reasons, he will lend a hand.


    “En, you are amazing!” Lan You Nian beamed as she kissed Feng Yi Xuan’s cheek.


    Though Feng Yi Xuan enjoyed Lan You Nian taking the initiative, his ears still turned red from the eyes on them. Lan You Nian would sometimes feel strange. Sometimes Feng Yi Xuan was like a hungry wolf like on the bed but other times he was shy.


    “You guys can go without worries. Hua empire’s crown prince has helped us greatly. Whether it is to return the favor or something else, you guys should lend your hand. As for matters of the empire, there’s us!” Feng Xia Qi consoled. He admired Hua empire’s crown prince. He can already faintly tell Hua empire’s crown prince’s feelings for Nianer.


    “Thanks imperial brother, imperial sister inw!” Feng Yi Xuan left the pce with Lan You Nian. Hua Xiu Yi’s situation was dangerous. If they wentte, they might only be retrieving Hua Xiu Yi’s corpse. Since Feng Yi Xuan decided to save Hua Xiu Yi, he will do his upmost.
