Sheng Li and Ying Lili came to the Emperor's manor. Han Wenji sat up on the bed and asked the Crown Princess about her health.
"I have recovered, Your Majesty. How is his majesty doing? Did his majesty take his medicine?" Ying Lili questioned.
"Yes. Hu Jingguo gave me the medicine earlier," replied Han Wenji and asked about their sudden visit. Sheng Li looked at Ying Lili and then at his father. "Father, I am leaving the Capital for a few days," Sheng Li informed Han Wenji who knitted his brows.
"Why? What happened?" Han Wenji asked.
Sheng Li explained everything to his father, who nodded. "Killing Tan Gengxin is necessary. You shall leave, Crown Prince. Take two more commanders with you. You cannot take any risk," Han Wenji stated.
"Yes, father. I am leaving in the early evening and I will try my best to return as early as possible. Father, since it is a secret mission, I urge you to tell whoever asks about me that I went to the neighboring territories to look into the borders," Sheng Li suggested. Han Wenji nodded and blessed the Crown Prince.
"The spy has returned and confirmed that he had raised an army, ammunition, and arms," Sheng Li stated. He did not want to tell his father much, not wanting him to get tense over this matter.
"Take Jian Guozhi with you," Suddenly Han Wenji suggested.
"I am afraid, but I do not want the First Brother to accompany me. Since the situation is difficult this time, I cannot let him get involved in all this. Moreover, his presence in the Capital is more important," Sheng Li pronounced. Han Wenji acknowledged the decision of his son.
"Do not worry about me. Like always, I will be victorious," Sheng Li confidently said, while keeping a smile on his lips. Han Wenji always praised Sheng Li for his optimism whenever battles happened. He knew his son would conquer the enemies, but as a father, he was also tense about his safety.
"Father shall rest. We are taking our leave," Sheng Li and Ying Lili stood up from the chaise.
Han Wenji walked to Sheng Li and hugged him tightly. "Do not let yourself get hurt. Return safely back to the home," Han Wenji patted his shoulders as they pulled away. Sheng Li bowed and then left the manor with Ying Lili.
As they descended the stairs, Ying Lili asked him about the Court.
"There is no Court session today," Sheng Li answered and grasped her hand, and intertwined their fingers.
"Leave. Many eyes are on us," Ying Lili whispered.
Sheng Li tilted his head and looked at the soldiers first, followed by the servants. "No one is watching. They are busy working and we only held hands," Sheng Li pronounced. "I will miss your touch for a few days so let me hold your hand," he then added.
They reached the bottom of the stairs. "The weather is changing. Look, the tiny clouds are appearing," Sheng Li asserted, looking up at the clear blue sky. Ying Lili saw the feathery clouds in the sky. "Rain will pour soon," she heard him and he peered at her.
Ying Lili pulled her hand and removed the pendant from her neck. Sheng Li confusedly watched her. "This will protect you," she rose on her toes and tugged off it around Sheng Li's neck, "You will not feel lonely whenever you will see this and also the butterfly in your wrist." She stepped back and passed him a smile.
Sheng Li caught her left wrist and drew her closer. Her hands rested on his shoulders. The two kept staring into each other's eyes, reading them. "I will keep sending you letters and will wait for your messages. Don't let yourself get hurt, else I will punish the people around you whether they will be at fault or not. Take your meals at a time and do not let a single tear fall from these pearly eyes." Ying Lili nodded her head. Sheng Li leaned to her and planted a soft kiss on top of her head.
"Brother is getting romantic openly in front of the Emperor's manor." Lei Wanxi voiced, who was fanning himself while smirking. Sheng Li tilted his head to glance at the Sixth Prince.
Hu Jingguo and Lei Wanxi were smiling seeing them.
"Are you good now? Last night Brother Nianzu scolded you!" Sheng Li stated. Lei Wanxi stopped fanning himself and put his hand down. "Brother Nianzu sent a beautiful gift for me in the morning. He even ate morning meals with me," Lei Wanxi answered.
"Good to know. Leave," Sheng Li coldly said.
"Why are you asking them to leave?"
"Sister Lili, Brother wants to be alone with you...getting lovey-dovey with Sister Lili that's why he is telling us to leave," Lei Wanxi stated. "This is wrong, Brother Sheng. You did not tell your younger brother that you are leaving the Capital. Everyone knows except me and Weng Yu. I went to your chamber but you were not there so, I came here. However, you are telling me to leave," Lei Wanxi complained.
"I am leaving in the evening. Why are you acting like a child?" Sheng Li was irritated with his whining.
"Jingguo," Ying Lili called him and walked to him. Halting in front of him, she turned to Sheng Li and said, "I have something important to discuss with Jingguo. Talk with Brother Wanxi." Before Sheng Li could speak, Lei Wanxi went towards him and tightly grabbed his right arm.
"Sister Lili, I will take care of Brother Sheng till you are done conversing with Hu Jingguo," stated Lei Wanxi. Sheng Li frowned and tried releasing his arm from him but Lei Wanxi was holding him firmly.
Ying Lili passed a smile to them and left with Hu Jingguo. As she vanished from his sight, Sheng Li told Lei Wanxi to leave his arm. "I wanted to spend some time with her but you intervened. From where have you received the training to interrupt the two lovers?" Sheng Li annoyingly said and walked ahead.
"Brother it was not intentional. Let the two friends converse. I have something important to tell you which I could not say in front of Sister Lili. That's why I came here," Lei Wanxi asserted.
Sheng Li halted at his place as his facial expressions turned menacing.
