In a study room, Zhao Li Xin is in a deep conversation with The King of the red vermilion palace Bei Li Yan, Like Zhao Li Xin Bei Li Yan is also twenty-five years old, unmarried, he have androgynous beauty who can seduce man and woman, he always wear red robes with vermilion bird embroidery on his sleeve s as his King's identity, compare to indifferent and cold Zhao Li Xin, Bei Li Yan character is more outgoing, flirtatious and mischievous, he is a free spirit man that no one can control until he met Zhao Li Xin.

"The Huang sibling has looking Milord all over the place quite meticulously" Bei Li Yan smiles seductively.

Zhao Li Xin didn't answer, he sips his wine with boring expression, Bei Li Yan already used by Zhao Li Xin indifferent reaction he continue without worries "About the Liangzu Princess, unfortunately we do uncover important matters about her" he put down the wine cup on the table "Turns out the princess is the niece of The current Emperor, she is the daughter of previous Emperor who died at young age"

"The current Emperor didn't kill her?" Zhao Li Xin frowned, in a normal situation the emperor would kill any descendant from previous Emperor to avoid the root of rebellion, at least he would marry her to a small foreign country to keep her at bay, so why he kept her alive

"She was not just kept alive, the rumor said the Emperor even treats her better than his own Daughter, isn't that amazing?" Bei Li Yan feels skeptical about the whole situation "We still don't know the reason this special treatment, if there any reason they only shared in the innermost circle" he annoyed by the fact there something even he can't dugout.

Zhao Li Xin's face remains placid his hand fiddle the glass cup on his finger, he looks like in a deep though it's hard to judge since he makes the same expression all the time, Bei Li Yan also not dare interrupted him he continues drinking his wine quietly.

He stops fiddle the wine cup abruptly, he glances at Bei Li Yan "Watch Huang Zi Feng closely, I think he knows something important"

"Already did, Milord" Be Li Yan nodded his head respectfully with charming smiles on his face.

"And what about the new about my Jade placard?" he leans his back lazily.

"That old man is the one who carved that jade fifty years ago for noble family outside this continent, but he not tell us who is that person he seems really fear that man, we want to force him more but because he works for Miss Tang we not dare force him too much" Bei Li Yan eyes probe Zhao Li Xin reaction, Tang Mei Yi is the only woman who is associated with Zhao Li Xin for years, Zhao Li Xin not seems to favor her but his not resent her as much as other people, rumor even said she might become the future Madam of Hei Shen, but recently Mong Yi was spit on that rumor he said Bei Li Yan has not seen the 'real' future madam is.

Zhao Li Xin annoyed "Since when we need her permission to do anything" he doesn't understand why his people mind Tang Mei Yi so much, he just slightly nice to her because her master and his masters are friends and nothing more.

Bei Li Yan realize he anger the 'Demon Lord' he bowed deeply at Zhao Li Xin "Apology Milord, then we will proceed with our plan to gain the information"

Zhao Li Xin still upset he hate his people thought he had secret relationship with Tang Mei Yi, deep down he worried if this rumor reach to certain woman in his manor, he worried if she misunderstood him or worst keep her distance from him because she thought he already had someone, this wild imagination makes him anxious like he never felt before. Bei Li Yan confuses why his Lord's face keeps changing from upset to worry then anxious then is back to upset again.

This is the first time for Bei Li Yan seen Zhao Li Xin this expressive, Bei Li Yan dumbfounded by the scene in front of him when the two of them immersed in their own thought someone knocking on the door. Before Zhao Li Xin said 'enter' the door already open by Mong Ki, Bei Li Yan frowned he knew Zhao Li Xin hated someone disturbed him when he on the middle conversation.

"I'm sorry to disturb you Milord, but they told me to bring more wine…." Lory looks behind her but Mong Ki and mong Yi already left him, she cursed that two men for leaving her behind awkwardly like this.

Bei Li Yan recognizes Lory as the same woman beside Zhao li Xin at The Jiang Wei imperial palace but just when he wants to investigate more, Zhao Li Xin kicks him away before he can have a proper talk with the infamous lady.

Zhao Li Xin's gloomy face suddenly change in a second, he raises from his big chair then he walks over her "You should leave this menial job to the servants" Zhao Li Xin take the tray off from her hands.

'Am I not a maid anymore? it's so confusing'

"It's fine, I got nothing to do anyway, I'm sorry to bother your meeting, so please excuse me…." Lory bow respectfully at Zhao Li Xin and Bei Li Yan.

"You don't have to, we're done" Zhao Li Xin put the tray on the table "Have you had your dinner yet?" he glances at her gently, Bei Li Yan almost shriek thankfully he can hold himself. He never saw Zhao Li Xin gentle to anyone not even to his own Master Tian Meng Ji.

"No, I haven't" she replied.

"Let's have dinner then," he said softly.

"Okay, uhm master Bei would you like join us for dinner," Lory thought is impolite if she has dinner without asking the guest to have dinner with them, Zhao Li Xin thought is unnecessary but if she wants it he doesn't mind. Bei Li Yan who never invited to a dinner with Zhao Li Xin for as long as he can remember, he was bewildered but then he recovers quickly and grabs the opportunity wholeheartedly "Yes, of course..." he answered excitedly.

The three of them arrived at the dining hall, the servants already prepare grand dinner for them, the table for twelve people is cover with food she can barely see the surface anymore. like usual lory sit next to Zhao Li Xin while Bei Li Yan opposite them suddenly Bei li yan feel like a third wheel.

Zhao Li Xin knew Lory didn't like to eat rice too much and she prefers sweet taste the most so he makes the chef prepare red bean soup for her with black mochi on it, then he also put veggies and roast duck on her plate to keep the nutrition balance.

Lory already used to have him treat her like kindergarten kids, the servants also used with their Lord dotting miss Luo in front of their face so no one bothers anymore, Only Bei Li Yan who make a shocked expression like a dear who hit by the headlights.

He looks rights and left for confirmation he not dreaming, the servants look at back at him with understanding, they slightly nod at him 'You not dreaming' with their eyes.

"Master Bei, are you not eating?" Lory's voice awake Bei Li Yan from his daze, this is the first time Bei li yan flustered in front of woman, fortunately, Lory doesn't realize it "Is it because your cultivation is high, people say the higher your cultivation the less u need food to replenish your energy"

Bei Li Yan smiles awkwardly "I'm just thinking about something, Let's eat....." Bei Li Yan lifts his rice bowl swiftly.

Lory tilted her head, she thought Bei Li Yan is Zhao Li Xin subordinated so she got curious about something, she leans on Zhao Li Xin and whisper to his ear "Between you and him which one of you is stronger?"

Bei Li Yan has keen hearing because his high cultivation, he hears clearly what Lory said, he was so shocked he almost spit the food out of his mouth but instead he holds it and because of it he coughs loudly, Lory was stunned by his big reaction she immediately pour a cup of tea for Bei Li Yan could cultivator choke to death by food, how embarrassing it would be…..

"T…thank….you" Bei Li Yan accept the teacup from Lory's hands unceremoniously, on the other hand, he misses the death glare from Zhao Li Xin, he annoyed she worry too much with his subordinate.

'Hump, he won't be dead because of it!!'

This is the first time he found Bei Li Yan is annoying he really wants to kick him out of his manor if Bei Li Yan knew what Zhao Li Xin thinking he would refute Zhao Li Xin 'This is not his fault!'

It took a minuted until he calmed down, Lory feel bad for him "Master Bei, it's my fault, I'm sorry for being rude" she sincerely apologize, Bei Li Yan opinion about lory rise a few levels, a sensible and modest lady even when she backed up by the 'Demon Lord' himself.

"No, no Miss Luo, I'm just surprised, you don't need to feel bad" Bei Li Yan waves his hands carelessly, her charming smiles return to his beautiful androgynous face.

His Charming smiles makes lory excited a bit "You so nice Master Bei" Lory giggles softly, her clear and sweet sounds make Bei li yan grew wider until he notices a certain Lord glare viciously at him 'You really want to die, huh!!'

Cold sweat suddenly appear on his forehead, why he felt 'King Yama' will visit him sooner "But…but, if you compare me with Milord, Is like comparing turtle with the moon, my talent is nothing compare to milord, I'm just dirt while our Lord talent is pure...pure as gold" he waved his hands exaggeratedly.

The servant was awed, they never seen Master Bei vigorously bootlicking our Lord this much as if his life depends on it, well for Bei Li Yan he feels his life does depend on it.

She looks at Zhao Li Xin in dismay "Li Xin you never told me you are so talented" her eyes filled with admiration for the man in front of her "This not fair, you never told me anything" she pretends to be hurt. Zhao Li Xin sees the way she looking at him his anger dissipated immediately.

" I will tell you everything you want to hear" he smiles dazzlingly to the point it's hurt other people's eyes who saw it.

Meanwhile, Bei Li Yan secretly thank's whoever answers his pray 'Thank God, I'm saved…..'
