Feng Ru Ai's
Chapter 10

Prince Rong who got an impromptu visit from the MingQi royal government seemed to feel above the clouds. The 24-year-old smiled victoriously as he watched ministers and officials begin scrambling for attention and protection from him.

The condition of the Wei emperor has declined drastically. Ministers and government officials confidently and confidently thought that death would soon greet the Wei emperor, therefore, before the destruction came to pass, they are racing - the race attracts the attention of the prospective heir to the throne who still survives with his great ambition. Moreover, it seems that Prince Rong will easily climb the throne especially when he currently has no rivals.

The existence of crown prince Rui is still unclear, nor is the interest of prince Yan participate in the struggle for the throne makes the ministers and officials only prioritize prince Rong.

They tirelessly come to give flattery, sweet words and compliments that sometimes can make people nauseous because the sweetness of the words they say. They are willing to prostrate, lower their self-esteem to the lowest point even if only for a higher position and position. For them it does not matter, what they are trying and doing is worth what they will get in the future. Their thinking was clearly as narrow as the thought of Tong the right-handed prince Yan.

Prince Rong was not such a fool, he grew up in the inner palace. He already knows a lot of evil and decay that is hidden behind the luxurious and magnificent building that appears from the outside. The little bit of cunning he had acquired was a lesson he had learned in a very cruel inner palace. Prince Rong knew that the support they provided did not mean that they had no particular purpose. Of course, the government officials who come to him someday will repay the favor for his success later to occupy the imperial throne.

Life is hard and cruel, there is no help or in the world of politics and government that will be obtained for free. All must have certain reasons and intentions, as do the ministers and government officials today. They sought to establish a good relationship with him for the sake of their future career which began to shine brightly with the news of the declining health condition of the Wei emperor.

Prince Rong need not be surprised at that, government officials who started moving quickly like this were no longer something to be surprised by. All of this has long and often happened, even their movements began to be transparent to the public and began to become a consumption of the population of MingQi kingdom. Prince Rong did not care. He will accept all their support gladly, but never really intend to give anything in return for his achievement later.

Let's just say that Prince Rong was so cruel to use their support, but once again the 24-year-old prince stressed, the life behind the golden cage was very cruel and terrible. Those in power will forever prevail, no one is able to refute because that is the law of nature where the weak will always be defeated and oppressed by those who have power, property and throne.

On the other hand, Lie settles out of the palace after ordering some special soldiers of his friend to continue to watch and keep the safety of the Wei emperor who is now lying sick on his quarrel.

Right now, the Wei emperor's right-hand man is performing a special task in which he will visit the crown prince's hideout for the first time since he was reported three months ago.

Lie with above average ability was able to get out of the palace easily without leaving any suspicions.

Moreover, the right hand of the Wei emperor did not need to be afraid of the subordinates who worked brought the care of Prince Rong whose abilities were far away, because now the friends of Prince Rong carry out their duties as leisurely as their current lord who seems to have been on top of victory with a lot of support coming.

Lie stepped as fast as the wind blew, he passed through the crowd of residents who filled the capital MingQi with all their activities easily. The movement is very shrewd and light, even the people around him are completely unaware that Lie passed them.

Lie's pace slowly slowed down, he had entered the deep forest that was under the foot of the mountain. The forest is a forest that has been feared by the residents of MingQi because of a creepy rumor that circulated from the mouth of the MingQi residents.

According to reports of birds circulating like the plague, the dense forest under the western foothills has a creepy waiter. Rumor has it that there is a silhouette of a tiger or a large white wolf who is the guardian of the forest.

The existence of the forest guard is not too sure, but there are some residents who have accidentally seen it. That's where it all started. The forest that used to be a means to hunt and search for herbs began to turn into a creepy and forbidden place for the MingQi residents.

Lie kept his feet moving into the dense forest, the wind even blowing strong when he first stepped into the forest. Lie continued to tread boldly following the path. There was nothing scary about the place, the forest was even too beautiful to describe as a terrible place.

There were many beauties within the forest that were so natural and untouched by human hands, it clearly brought a sense of comfort and peace to Lie. Everything he went through seemed beautiful, there was not a single scary thing like baseless rumors circulating in the crowd.

Lie should be grateful, with those rumors, not a single person dared to enter the crown prince Rui's hideout for the past three months. But Lie's thinking seems wrong, not far in front of him now, he is seeing a young lady with a fully conscious state is playing with a tiger or maybe a white-haired wolf with a large body size.

"Who is that young lady, why is she here? If he was here, could he have known that crown prince Rui was hiding here? If it was her, the young lady would have to be eliminated!"
