The Great Princess of the Warlord
chapter 32

Ri Yue's troops had now passed through the eastern Xili region. Only through three villages will they reach the capital. Now they are resting in the middle of the forest close to the river that they can use as a source of water. Intentionally also choose to rest in the forest, because this place is a source of food and there is also a spring in it.

The Ri Yue troops had finished building a tent for all of them to rest. Now is the time for them to cook the results of the hunt that the other members had obtained earlier. There are also a few wild deer pigeons and rabbits that they can cook as their dinner tonight.

" You share to cook this ingredient, others stand guard. Our experience was once attacked while in the forest, so the security this time should be more strict." said Mingye.

" Good Katua." said Mingye's men.

Some of the men from each team in the Ri Yue army will be sent to make security around their camp area. So that the incident when they are attacked when leaving for a mission will not be repeated on their way home after the mission.

The 5th prince himself had already entered a special tent for him in order to rest himself. Traveling for more than three days without rest is quite draining his energy. However, the desire of the heart to get home immediately makes him forget his physical strength.

" My lord.." said Zigang, one of the group leaders in his army.

" What are you looking for me for?" asked Gong Sheng who was laying down his body.

" sorry to interrupt your break. But I have something to tell you" Zigang said.

" Say!!!" gong Sheng's.

" I got a message from the capital, which was about the movement of an unknown person in suppressing the crown prince. The identity of the person is still unknown to my master" Zigang reported.

" Examine again, whether this person is on our side or just the person who will later turn to attack us!!" gong Sheng's.

" Good, my lord." Zigang then resigned.

In his tent, Gong Sheng began to guess who might have been the one who had suppressed the crown prince's movements. Yet as long as he pondered no one name came to his mind. The crown prince has the support of the empress' family and also the support of the leftist prime minister. In other words his territory was vast, then who had harassed him, Gong Sheng was truly incapable of guessing.

preoccupied with the many presuppositions of someone who could have been the one who was able to suppress the movement of the crown prince, Gong Sheng to the point of not realizing that the time to gather for dinner had been missed. Until one of his troops called him in the tent. Gong Sheng really felt uneasy about having his squad members waiting for him for a long period of time.

" I'm sorry for my delay, let's start our dinner!!" exclaim Gong Sheng.

Still the same in the forest, but different from the forest where the 5th prince troops. Feng Ai and Shihan were training near the waterfall. Feng Ai wanted to immediately be able to control the water in order to immediately be able to use his ability to be able to heal people.

Shihan was watching closely how his master was practicing to be able to master this water-control technique. Shihan who had heard from Yi Ye about the current figure of Feng Ai, pun also began to feel that during this time Feng Ai's desire to master martial arts because his master wanted to be useful for the 5th prince.

Who does not know about the conflicts that exist around the 5th prince. People associated with the palace must know that during this time the name of the 5th prince is referred to as the prince who is able to defeat the crown prince, who is, in the sense that the 5th prince could replace his eldest brother to crown prince.

Because of this the life of the 5th prince is always on the tip of the horn.Especially the empress has targeted the 5th prince even before he was ahir. Because the prophecy of the Xili dynasty when Consort Xia conceived the 5th prince was, "THE CHILD IN THE WOMB OF THE BELOVED WOMAN WILL BE THE SUSTAINER OF THE XILI DYNASTY. IT WAS BECAUSE OF THIS CHILD THAT THE XILI DYNASTY WOULD LATER REACH ITS PEAK."

" Shihan.." call Feng Ai who is already in front of this personal bodyguard. Looks like Shihan's daydreaming.

" A. yes.iya... What's up, your majesty?" asked Shihan who was very surprised to see his master was already right in front of him.

" I called you since then but you seem to be daydreaming so don't hear me." Feng Ai replied smilingly. Didn't expect that this personal bodyguard could also daydream.

' I'm sorry, Your Honor, I'm thinking about the 5th prince's return. I'm a little worried that the 5th princely party will be attacked as it was when the party set out on a mission" Shihan told a little lie. He was indeed thinking about the 5th prince, but not about his return.

" Don't worry, if my calculations are not wrong the 5th prince's entourage will arrive in the capital in three days. And they will arrive safely." said Feng Ai.

" Thank God, then." Shihan was also happy to hear that, although he was quite curious about where his master knew.

Shihan then gave another example to Feng Ai at his master's request. Feng Ai was a little confused about how to use his energy to be able to master the water around him. So he wanted to once again see Shihan exemplify this technique of mastering water.

With high concentration Feng Ai noticed every hand movement from Shihan. Feng Ai also focused on paying attention as his lithe hands made the ground that was around them fuse with his hands. This was what Feng Ai wanted to know clearly how.

" Your focus is not on my noble hands. But on my inner energy it comes out of dear hands like a hand collecting the ground around this." Shihan said, not wanting his master to focus wrongly, as it would be fatal.

" How do you get that energy out to be a hand?" asked Feng Ai.

" By thinking that my hand is by itself gathering land to be able to be a protector and a weapon for me." replied Shihan.

" Okay, I'll try it again." Feng ai stood back inside the river that was close to the waterfall.

Moving the same hand as Shihan, then the same steps as Shihan, Feng Ai began to move his inner energy as what Shihan had said. Slowly, the water around Feng Ai was turbulent. Then the waters were within the power of Feng Ai's hand. He has succeeded.
