The Underground Palace is a lot bigger than she thought, Zhao Li Xin palace is on the top separated with other palaces it got only one way in and one way out, only the ing palace and Mong's brother who can enter his palace and now Lory become one the selected few.

Just like before her room is side by side with Zhao Li Xin who make her baffled, even in this massive place they room still stuck to each other, of course it's all part of his plan, his clinginess just increase to another level after what happened in royal Kingdom, and his dotting behavior also increased makes Hei Shen member except Mong's brothers and few people who work at Ninjing manor were shocked, but no one dare question Zhao Li Xin.

Not like other sects who have complicated rules and restrictions, the rule is simple, do your jobs, never question your Lord and never betray your Lord, as simple as that. Hei Shen also didn't have an elder, Zhao Li Xin's position is above everyone else and it's absolute, but because of that inside Hei Shen sect is more peaceful and relaxed compared to normal sect out there.

Lory as a naturally curious type has eager to exploring the palace when Zhao Li Xin couldn't be with her, mong Yi becomes his replacement and acts as 'a professional tour guide' what amazed Lory was how chatty Mong Yi could it be. When they arrived someplace Mong Yi would explain everything in detail, definitely reminds her of the day on her 'School Trip' to the museum.

"Miss Luo, this treasure was found by Milord when he was only seventeen at the auction city Yang Zu, it was made by pure honey crystal who is very rare in this world, they say it can bla bla bla bla...…."

'DA*N, he really can talk!'

Lory doesn't know how to stop him talking, it felt rude to halt him when he's so passionate. Lory used her telepathic calling Girsha [Girsa, help me....I don't think he would stop any time soon…..]

Lory maintains her polite smiles at Mong Yi while nodding her head as if she's listening.

[Sorry girl, you own your own….] Girsha already left the room since an hour ago.

"Uhm…..Brother Mong….."

"It made by one hundred precious Gems and pure gold..." he still talks passionately.

"Brother Mong…..Sorry" Lory try to interfere but mong Yi didn't listen, Lory become impatient "MONG YI!!" she finally lost it.

"Huh?" Mong Yi back to reality with confusing look, he hasn't explained the best part yet.

Lory back to her kind smiles "Where is Zhao Li Xin?"

"Uh….Milord is out with Mong ki, he'll be back tonight"

"Oh, is that so, I remember Li Xin ask me something about...something, I need to go now" Lory pretend she's in hurry "Thank you for everything brother Mong, You're the best!!" she scurried out of the room as if the ghost chasing her, she's scared Mong Yi will talk again. Mong Yi feels puzzled watching her half running out of the room, he shrugs his shoulder, at least he already does a great job to entertain her.

The guards who watch the doors, give Mong Yi stink eyes 'Bro, you really can talk...'

Lory managed to get back to her room, she glared at girsha who nestle comfortably on a soft pillow while pecking the grapes [ You made out alive?] Girsha astonished watching her enter the room.

[No, thanks to you…] she makes sullen marks.

Girsha sigh helplessly [I never knew, I would meet someone who is more chatty than Jay….]

[Rights…] Lory agree with him, she sits on the table pour cold water on her cup. Not like people in this world who likes drink tea and wine all the times, Lory can make through the day without drink mineral water like normal people in her world, Lory was overjoyed when she knew there's a lot of water spring scattered all inside the cave, she already sick and tired drinking tea.

She feels better after she drinks mineral water, she grabs the apple on the table then she sits on the window frame while chewing her apple leisurely, she enjoyed the scenery in Underground palace, the cave ceiling is cover with stalactite on it surface of the stalactite is cover with glowing bugs, making it look like tiny stars on the sky. It is a scene to behold if only Zhao Li Xin was here…..lory sigh inwardly.

[Miss him?] Girsha perch beside her while teased her.

[I'm not…] she denied.

[You are..] he insists.

[I'm not…..]

[You are….]

[...…..I'm not!]

[...you are, STUPID!]

[Heyyyyy….]

While Lory and girsha on their 'Friendly' bathering at Jiang Wei capital city Imperial palace the Emperor throw his fit again, the eunuch is more relaxed now since it's become normal occurance for this last few months. The emperor got headache when a lot of goods like daily needs cannot enter Nan Jing capital city, because of that the price of daily necessity like rice, chili, cloves, and few vegetables become hard to find and even if they cand the cost are too high, many people barely afford it, after the vegetable become costly, meat becomes even more expensive.

It's only six months things already get out of hands, the merchant also didn't know why something that used to be easy to find now become rare, Zhao Yi Chen try to solves the problem by making a deal with merchant from other country, meaning he try to import from other country but import merchandise from other country are cost a lot and imperial palace didn't have enough fund to provide it in long terms.

The prince's reluctant to used their own personal funds to relief the country burden, why? Because they need money to fight for the throned, only the smart one like Zhao Yi Chen who makes 'Open Kitchen' to give free foods for the poor people, he also donated rice and a few basic necessity for people who needs it. his action gains a lot of praised from commoner and he got more support from his citizens.

Zhao Mu Fan and Zhao Qin Feng cannot stay still and let Zhao Yi Chen steal the limelight, they reluctantly copy Zhao Yi Chen action, Zhao Mu Fan even order hs concubines to personally give the donation to the commoner, something never happened in the Jiang Wei Kingdom.

Everyone try to take advantages from the situation but they know this kinda thing won't last for long, they need to find the real resolution to overcome this situation, Once again the eunuch hear something breaking inside the imperial study room, they already could have guessed their Emperor throwing tantrum again.

The Emperor sits on his big chair, he's alone in his study room. The Jiang Wei Kingdom is known as a rich country that has an enormous resource in his country, even in winter his country never had a problem with food, but now it's spring where foods should be abundance but why food become something so hard to find. Zhao Zi Gen never really involved in managing his country with his two prime minister and a bunch of officials why he needs to work so hard.

He like indulging himself with wealth and beauty in his arms, he though his treasury would never be empty but his wrong, the first time finance crisis should teach him a lesson but no, he back to his old habit he let everything escalated to this far and this what's he's got, he pinches his temple try to ease his headache.

"It's only six months, you already having it hard..."

Zhao Zi Gen lift his head abruptly, someone sits on the corner chair in a lazy manner, the man is wearing black robes with gold thread embroidery on his sleeve, he takes off his golden mask slowly. His perfect carved appearance stunned Zhao Zi Gen.

"Zhao Li Xin?"
