Fei Jing wore the headband around his head when the servant informed him about the results. "Young Master Fei has qualified for the exam," he said delightedly. "The Master has called you. Also, there will be--"

Fei Jing cut his words and asked about Nianzu. "What about Nianzu? Did he qualify too?" Before the servant could answer, another one came inside and gave him the news.

"Young Master Fei, the Fourth Prince was living among us. The General and a group of soldiers have come to take the Fourth Prince and his wife back to Luoyang. The status which was revoked earlier is given back to the Fourth Prince," the servant informed Fei Jing, who chuckled.

"I knew that he was the Fourth Prince. How could this be possible? He is given back his status! But, why?" Fei Jing muttered. "Prepare the litter for me. I need to go to his house," Fei Jing ordered him.

"What about your father, Young Master?"

"Tell Father that I will see him later," Fei Jing replied and walked out of the chamber.

His mother was coming towards him. "Son, I was--"

"Mother, I will talk to you later. I am in a hurry," stated Fei Jing and left the residence. He stepped into the litter and told the carriers to quickly go to Nianzu's house.

Soon, he reached outside the house of Nianzu. As soon as the litter was put on the ground, he got out of the litter. He saw the police officials around the house. He walked ahead and saw Nianzu with the Royal Inspector.

"Will he even look at me? I have troubled him a little," He murmured when he felt two hands on his shoulders. He looked at his left-right. "Luo Zhen, Xie Tian!" He was startled to see them. They both dragged him away at the backside of the house so that no one could see them.

"He is the Fourth Prince. Did you know about this?" Luo Zhen asked.

"No," Fei Jing lied.

"We are dead. Yesterday, we beat him," Luo Zhen told Fei Jing, who acted as if he did not know.

"He will definitely hang us to death. I have heard that the Crown Prince is close to the Fourth Prince. What if the Fourth Prince tells the Crown Prince? We will surely get beheaded," Luo Zhen said worriedly.

"You were the one who beat him," Xie Tian blamed him. "Let's beg forgiveness from the Fourth Prince before he punishes us," he suggested to him.

"As if the Fourth Prince will forgive us. I even kicked him so many times. My heart is restless. The Crown Prince will surely kill us," stated Luo Zhen. He started to tremble in fear.

"Fei Jing, please help us. You are his friend," Luo Zhen pleaded with them. Fei Jing furrowed his brows and heaved a sigh.

"What are you three talking over there?" They heard the voice of Nianzu and immediately turned back. Xie Tian quickly got on his knees and apologized to him. Seeing him, Luo Zhen too got on his knees and bowed his head.

"Your Highness, please forgive us. We beg you," Luo Zhen pleaded with him.

Nianzu smiled a little. "I do not believe in punishments. Also, I do not bother with such trivial matters. I am a common person with limited desires. However, I would like you all to not consider any person lowly and also try not to comment on someone's wife or any woman. It is not appropriate when literate people like you forget their teachings," Nianzu explained to them.

"Forgive us, Your Highness," Fei Jing said finally. He lowered his eyes and head. "Forgive us for behaving like spoiled kids," he said.

Luo Zhen and Tie Xian repeated the same words.

"You called me a friend then you should act like one. You can call me Nianzu. I will not mind. Also, since I am leaving this village by this evening, I want some right people to look after the people. I expect you to work diligently and efficiently for these people," Nianzu expressed his desire.

Fei Jing lifted his eyes. "I wish I could call the Fourth Prince by his name. Now, the Fourth Prince has acquired the status of the Prince, so I cannot pronounce his name. I do not dare to. I knew that the Fourth Prince would top the exam. I am happy that he is returning to Luoyang and getting back to his rightful place," stated Fei Jing.

Nianzu walked towards him and embraced him in a hug. He patted his back and pulled away. "Hopefully, I will see you as a high-rank official in a few years," Nianzu affirmed.

Fei Jing nodded his head and passed him a smile. "I will try my best, Your Highness. His Highness taught me a few things and I will implement them in my life." Nianzu was delighted to hear the words of Fei Jing. He then told Luo Zhen and Xie Tian to stand up. They both quickly stood up.

"Yesterday you acted like kids who could not bear the fact that someone tried to correct them. If my identity as a Prince would not have been revealed today, then you three (referring to Liu Shing too) would have not thought of apologizing to me. Instead, the feeling of getting defeated by a commoner would have created agony in your mind. Do not let your anger overpower your mind. That's the best advice I can give you all. I only wish that you will work for people's betterment because they have faith in you all. You all are lucky to have good family backgrounds, unlike many others."

"We understand, Your Highness. Once again we apologize for our foolishness and we will walk on the path that His Highness has advised us," Luo Zhen assured Nianzu.

Nianzu patted their shoulders and asked them if they would like to have lunch with him and the others.

"Yes. We would love to!" Fei Jing instantly replied.

"I am glad to know that.. Follow me," Nianzu said and took the three to his house.
