Empress
Episode 23 - General Chi

Xiao Shi finally decided to walk around the city along with the man he had accidentally hit earlier. Ever since this man just kept staring at him, it was a basic man, seeing beautiful things a little directly hunted. This actually caught Xiao Shi off guard, but for the sake of keeping Wang's hospitality, you should, he was willing to do it.

Yuan who walked behind Xiao Shi and the foreign man also felt uneasy, why would that man have to stare at his master like that? Looking at his wide smile, Yuan hoped that the man would hit a pole then fall down and roll around in the mud.

" echemm, all the way we never spoke, did you feel uncomfortable miss?" ask the stranger.

Xiao Shi turned to her "Of course not master, I just feel awkward"

" Ah it turned out so,," the man seemed to think for a moment.

" Of course you're gonna feel awkward, 'cause we haven't met each other, how stupid am I." Further.

Xiao Shi stopped his steps and looked at the man.

" See, I'm Chi Lou Yu" the man put his right hand on his left side while bowing his body.

" It's nice to meet you Mr. Chi, I'm Ling, and the woman next to me is Liu" Xiao Shi explained, introducing himself and Yuan.

" Mister" Yuan bowed his body in salute when Xiao Shi introduced his pseudonym.

" It's good to see you guys as well Miss Ling, miss Liu" Xiao Shi simply replied with a smile, then they continued their journey. At first everything went as it was, boring and annoying to Xiao Shi.but when the man named Chi started telling him his life, Xiao Shi began to feel interested.

As they walked, Chi's man said that he did not know where his parents were, as he had been raised by his adoptive father all along. According to what his father said he found him on the edge of the camp, lying with a thin cloth that enveloped him amidst the cold air. At that time his father had no children, his heart moved and took him home as a child. His father and adoptive mother had a fight because they thought he was the son of the husband's mistress, but his father managed to convince his mother, so he accepted her and raised her lovingly to this day.

" Your story is interesting sir, at first I felt sad but when I heard the end of the story I was happy." Xiao Shi.

" Thank you Miss Ling"

" Do you have a sister?"

" Right, 7 years after they adopted me, my mother conceived and gave birth to a daughter."

" Your sister must be a good person like you"

" You praise me too much, miss"

" That's the truth sir, then, is your sister married now?"

The man named Chi shook his head. " She's still in education, about to graduate, and maybe by then I'll start looking for her husband"

" You are an understanding brother"

" thank you. How're you? Looks like you're not a student in education, and you're also wandering around at night, isn't there a guy who's asking for you yet?" this question was difficult for Xiao Shi to answer, for some reason but he did not want to tell this man before him regarding it.

" Your guess is right sir, I would rather be alone without a man"

" Hmmm so, you've forgotten that question.What about your parents, what's their job?"

" my parents were farmers, but sometimes my father was also a woodworker."

The man nodded his head "In accordance with the news circulating, indeed this kingdom is a kingdom that is rich in nature so of course most people will become a farmer"

" Thank you for your praise, sir, I hope you don't feel disappointed because you're stranded in this kingdom"

" of course not, you know miss, it would be more pleasant to have a parent who always lived together like that" as if remembering something, Xiao Shi suddenly stopped his steps.

" I'm sorry, sir, didn't you just say that your father found you beside the camp. Is he a royal soldier?" tanyakanya.

" Right, my father is a soldier, he is a great commander" the answer this man gave increasingly made Xiao Shi surprised. Grand commander? Actually from which kingdom this man. It is true, judging from the way he dressed, spoke and walked was indeed very authoritative like the nobles. But who is he? Where did it come from?.

" Your father must have been great, your kingdom must have been great"

The man scratched his non-itchy nape. " I hesitate to tell you this, but I don't think you're dangerous, so I'll tell you"

Xiao Shi frowned, "What do you mean master?"

Zhao's? This guy is from there? How could? Is it possible that this was the hidden tactic of that emperor? She's trying to spy on her crap?

Hearing that Xiao Shi rewinded his steps. " Who are you then?"

" I was--"

" He is the General of the Zhao Empire. General Chi" was not the voice of the man in front of him, it was from someone behind him. Xiao Shi turned his head and saw a man with red hair standing up while eating sweets behind him.

Teng She's? What is this creature doing here?

" Hi" he said to Xiao Shi and Yuan.

" Sincerely, General Chi. Long time no see you" then the two men in front of him now hug each other.

Waitaminute! This Teng She and General Chi knew each other?

" How are you my best friend?" said the Chi man, wait, he is a general, so let's call him according to his title, General Chi.

" I'm good, what are you doing here?" answer Teng She. Every single one of his mannerisms and movements naturally got a plot from Xiao Shi.

" My horse is troubled and stranded here. And vou? Are you still wandering?"

" Yes, as you can see, where there's a party there's always me"

" party? What party is going to take place in this kingdom?"

" Have you heard it yet, friend?"

General Chi shook his head. He thought he didn't have to know about the party going on in the other kingdom.

" Your emperor, and the princess of this kingdom will marry" Teng She explained.

" What?!!!" the expression shown by General Chi showed that he had not been a surrogate from the emperor, there was no way the expression of his surprise was supernatural.

" It looks like your Emperor hasn't given any news to the camp yet"

" You're right, I need to get back right now. I wish we could meet another time my best friend Yu Feng" then the two of them hugged each other again.

" Miss Ling, miss liu, nice to meet you, I hope we can meet again. See you" then the general ran away from them.

Now, Teng She got a sharp glare from Xiao Shi as well as Yuan.

" You owe me an explanation! And what is 'MY FRIEND YU FENG' You are really looking for death" hearing Xiao Shi's words, made Teng She swallow her sweets with great difficulty. This aura, the aura emitted by his master was extremely suffocating. Oh god no. Don't let him die like this.

Then Xiao Shi walked away irritatedly, followed by Yuan laughing at him and scaring him because he made Xiao Shi angry. Oh god what kind of test is this.

Seeing that Teng She immediately chased after Xiao Shi and tried to explain everything in a hurry, as the closer she got to Xiao Shi, the more Xiao Shi accelerated his pace. Seeing that Yuan just walked casually behind while laughing at Teng She's behavior which he thought was very funny.

Suddenly someone pinched his cheek "Don't laugh at someone like that, no good"

The laughter that had been blaring now stopped, silent. She's surprised. The man who pinched his cheek was Feng Yue. Yuan's face now met, looking very red like a tomato. His heart was also racing, no, this could not be allowed, he had to leave.

" Miss, wait for me!!!" he exclaimed as he tried to run and caught up with Xiao Shi as well as Teng She. While Feng Yue? He just smiled while shaking his head.
