<h4>185 Close One</h4>


    Yan walked out from the Cold Pce with a serene expression. It was finally the time for the revenge n he had been nning. He hoped the emperor would be pleased with his present.


    "Shu, tell the eunuch that I want to visit my sister because I''m worried about her."


    Among the princes, only Yan was known to be close with Ming Hui. Having him visited Ming Hui should not be a problem. Besides, with him being known as the shame of imperial family, they would be really d to have him located far away from the pce than making countless troubles here.


    "Yes Master."


    With that, Shu disappeared. Yan looked towards the sky and walked to the pce, but then he met someone unexpected.


    "It is quite a surprise to see my dear brother walking here alone. And here I suspect you are making another trouble for Imperial Father."


    That voice caught Yan off guard. He rarely interacted with other princes. Among the four of them, thepetition was the most intense for Ming Kui and Ming Gong, but it didn''t mean Yan and Ming Xiao didn''t get involved. They would be dragged on some asion which made their rtionship soured.


    Yan turned around and what greeted him is the face of his dear brother, Ming Kui. The appearance of Ming Kui here was really unexpected since this road was rarely used except by Yan when he''sing from the Cold Pce. The meeting had truly surprised him.


    "If it''s not my esteemed Brother, is there anything you need, Prince Kui?"


    Ming Kui stared at Ming Yan coldly. He was not stupid like that Ming Gong who was terribly arrogant to the point he''s not worthy to be called the imperial family''s member. He has been working hard all these years and it was then he noticed something interesting. At first, he didn''t pay much attention, but Xuan Pei told him that this is not a small matter.


    This little brother of his who was famed as being useless and would spend days by chasing after girls and drinking could actually have such friends. From the spies, he knows that they are only fooling around in training hall and eating in such luxurious restaurant. But what makes his interest piqued is the fact that he had good subordinate.


    If Soujin had bodyguard that is really talented, he wouldn''t pay it any attention. Soujin came from military family which made it normal, especially with the poprity he had with the masses as a general. But, to think that this brother of his could have such guard, it made him want to know very much.


    "You seem to be hiding behind very much, my dear brother. If I hadn''t paid any attention, I would definitely be caught off guard."


    Ming Kui words made Yan breaks out in cold sweats. How could he suspect anything? But, going through his action this past few days, Yan remembers one action when he didn''t think of the consequences.


    It was the day of Jun Min death.


    That day, he called Shu toe out to finish the problem. He forgot, Shu was supposed to be an ordinary servant who took care of his business every day. That one simple action of him when he acted on impulse had gotten him into big trouble today.


    How many people noticed it? If the emperor were to ce his suspicion on him, it would be hard for Yan to get out from the capital and he will need to face the wrath of that emperor.


    "Isn''t it normal to have a capable bodyguard? In case of something misfortune happened to me?" Yan said with leisure tone. That process of thinking didn''t even take him a second to finish and he returned to his usualid-back attitude.


    "Oh, really? Even someone like you needs capable people?" Ming Kui said in low tone.


    "The number of talented people in the world is many, my dear brother. How do you expect to find them all?" Yan smirked.


    Hidden dragon, hidden capable people, how many of them in the world? Even Yan didn''t know and he only said that it was a coincidence that he got one of them thus he puts that person close to him.


    In another sense, he was talking about himself. Do you know how many talented people there is? Even if he were to appear before him, the other party would not necessarily know that since he acted as a fool.


    Ming Kui thinks of Yan words. As a member of imperial family, he didn''t think that Yan would be simple. Allowing himself to be known as a troublemaker in the whole capital, what would he expect? That way, he had simply destroyed his chance on getting the throne. Although he felt it weirder for their father to let the other party goes all these times.


    "You must have a good fortune then."


    Yan grinned. "If you were not so busy and strolled on the streets, perhaps you can stumble with extraordinary person."


    In truth, how much is the chance for meeting such a people? How can they simply walk on the streets and somehow encounter an expert who wanted to follow them? That was simply ridiculous.


    But, knowing Yan from a long time ago, even an idiot would knows that this is a prince that rarely works. He would dump his works on other people to y on the streets or simply wasting money on that restaurant. (No one know that he is the one who owns it)


    He was truly a weirdo from imperial family, but the emperor let him be since he would not make any major trouble except that flooding event. Besides, he would not kill his own son or daughter easily without reason which enables Yan to go anywhere freely.


    The other two also didn''t pay much attention to theidback prince and focused more on building their faction. It didn''t take long before Yan was not considered an opponent for them anymore.


    "You must be joking, how can you be that lucky?"


    "Oh, but I do stumble on that young general."


    Ming Kui felt like he''s wasting his time talking with this person whose brain didn''t seem to work well. That young general probably means Soujin and Jun Min. He did meet Soujin coincidentally on the pce and got into the fight with the other party. As for Jun Min, that was Soujin who introduce him, that shouldn''t have been a ''coincidence''.


    "The night is long. I will be going first."


    Yan looks towards the departing back of Ming Kui. He wiped off his sweats, somehow he felt that he had just escaped a truly deadly situation.


    "Ck, it seemed that I need to learn more self control. If something were to happen again…"


    Yan dispersed that thought. This time he''s lucky, but he''s not sure that Ming Kui would be easily fooled. That guy would surelye back and looks for him again, especially now that he had someone so sharp by his side. Yan felt that he needed to hurriedly go away from the capital.
