The Great Princess of the Warlord
chapter 34

Feng Ai kept pacing back and forth in front of the gate of this Man Yue residence. She was waiting for her husband's arrival, having met for a while in front of the palace gate to let go of the longing in the hearts of things for a moment. But since she returned to her husband's residence, until the day was felt to be getting late, the trunk of her husband's nose was still not seen entering the residence. Feng Ai felt anxious about it.

Yi Ye, Shihab and Hui Li were waiting together with the mistress of this residence. They find it funny to see their mistress's behavior that looks like a child. Like a child who lost his mother, that's how their mistress looks.

Before long the gate of the 5th prince's residence was wide open. Someone who had been waiting for Feng Ai since then, had finally arrived as well. Once agi Feng Ai hugged the body of the man who was her husband. Feng Ai wanted to let go of her miss after for more than three weeks they were not together.

" Why did you arrive so long ago?" feng Ai asked still in her husband's arms.

" I'm sorry I made you wait so long. I had to head to the barracks first before returning home." replied Gong Sheng. The hug on the tiny body of the wife the more she fret because she so misses the woman who has decorated her days since twenty years ago.

" Welcome sir, come on in for tea. Take off tired during the trip back to the capital." invited Yi Ye, allowing her master to enter the residence.

" Thank you Yi Ye." said Gong Sheng. His hand held Feng Ai's hand and invited his wife to enter their residence.

Yi Ye ordered the ladies and gentlemen to prepare tea and snacks for their masters and mistresses. Yi Ye smiled faintly as she watched her mistress continue to wrestle spoiled to her master. Before long some of the maids and maids brought what their butlers told them.

Gong Sheng so enjoyed the jasmine tea made by his servant. The tea that can always refresh his body. Gong Sheng invited Feng Ai to also drink the tea served by the servants. Feng Ai pung took his glass, then drank it. It was very fresh in his throat and body. It was as if his fatigue for the past day had disappeared.

" Thank you uncle. It's very refreshing." Feng Ai said.

" It's nice if you like her, madam." Yi Ye bowed her body.

" We take a break first, you guys please resume your work." said Gong Sheng to take his wife to their room.

Arriving at the room, Gong Sheng removed his robe and left only his home clothes. Then he invited Feng Ai to accompany him lying on their bed. There was nothing they were talking about, just lying down with hugging each other. Letting go of their longing that was separated for quite a while, then they both fell asleep at noon today.

In the evening, Gong Sheng wanted to take his wife to the city to see the people's party that was always held after Xili's troops gained victory in each mission. Usually there will be shows and fireworks that are the favorite of Feng Ai. Feng Ai happily accepted the invitation from her husband. Like a date she thought.

The streets in the capital are filled with people who sell various kinds of goods, both clothes or accessories are so beautiful. When he saw such a beautiful hairpin, Gong Sheng invited Feng Ai to stop by to see it.

" Look, isn't this very pretty." Gong Sheng said showing a hairpin in the shape of an orchid flower.

" Yes, this is so beautiful. But why are you showing me this?' asked Feng Ai.

" Alright, I will happily wear it later" Feng Ai said so happily.

" Sir, how much does this hairpin cost?" anya Gong Sheng at the accessories seller.

" His Majesty does not have to buy it, please just take the noble prince and princess like." replied the seller.For him, it can be close to the hero Xili more expensive than all the accessories he sold.

" If you give this to us, then the one who will give this to my wife is you. Let me pay for it, so that I can give this gift to my wife." gong Sheng said giving some coins to the accessories seller.

" Let this be your gift to your noble one." the seller gave you a ring of green jade. And it just so happened that the ring was a pair.

" We accept this thank you sir." said Gong Sheng so sincerely.

After the tavern that sold the various accessories earlier, Gong Sheng invited Feng Ai to head to the river in this capital. Usually the way it is tonight, surely many people who make a boat and make the boat sail on the river with a prayer on every part of the boat. The ancestor said that by doing so every prayer written on the boat would be granted by the god.

On the river bank, there was a boat seller and also a lantern. Everyone is free to choose the boat or lantern they are flying. Gong Sheng asks feng Ai to choose, and the choice falls on the lantern. According to feng Ai, the lights in the lanterns, will illuminate their request to arrive at the god's residence.

Feng Ai put his hands together in front of his chest to say his prayers to the gods. Same with Gong Sheng. As Feng Ai said her prayers inwardly, her tears without being asked directly drenched her face. Feng Ai recalled her nightmare back then. A dream that shows the death of her husband.

Gong Sheng was very surprised to see Feng Ai crying as he said his prayers. His back shook so his wife would calm down. Before long, Feng Ai regained her composure as she managed to control herself so as not to make her husband suspicious. Feng Ai reviewed her sweet smile in front of Gong Sheng so that her husband would not worry about her.

" Why are you crying? Like I'm leaving you and not coming back." Gong Sheng teased his wife. Feng Ai smiled wryly hearing the joke from her husband.

" If only you knew that you might leave me forever." Inner Feng Ai.

" I wouldn't have left you if I wasn't on a mission. So don't be sad." Gong Sheng comforted.

" A promise?" said Feng Ai.

" Promise.. Heaven and Earth bear witness to my promise. " Gong Sheng spoke firmly with a smile adorning his handsome face.

Feng Ai smiled, in her prayer she begged that her husband has a long life. So that the people of Xili as well as her descendants could have a wonderful time and time they could spend together with Gong Sheng. Feng Ai was so unwilling that someone as good as Gong Sheng had to end his life with slander attached to his body.
