Chapter 105 - 105. Sheng Ge is... I

Third person POV

Not long after the after party started, Long Quan and other member of royal family except Long Shangu went back to their own courtyard. Long Quan sat down on his seat and called Ah Jian's disguised name.

Long Quan: " Ah Jiang." ( Ah Jian's disguised name. I purposely only add –g behind it so it is easier to remember.)

Ah Jian immediately appeared and kneeled in front of Long Quan. Long Quan lightly nodded his head in satisfaction by A Jian's capability in doing every job he gave him.

Ah Jian: " What's your order, Your Majesty?" ( A/N: When Ah Jian beside Long Quan, he didn't use his accent for many reason.)

Long Quan: " What do you think about marrying Xu Feihong with that useless son of mine?"

Ah Jian had predicted that Long Quan would think about this plan so it wasn't that surprising to him.

Ah Jian: ' Young Master must already have a plan for this.' ( A/N: Young master= Xu Tingfeng.)

Ah Jian: " This slave think everything that Your Majesty planned will succeed."

Long Quan sighed tiredly, he just want Xu Tingfeng to be gone from this world, why did it have to be that difficult. While Long Quan was deep in thought, a guard gently knocked the door and called out Long Quan from outside.

Guard: " Your Majesty, His Highness prince Long Yang had come to see you."

Long Quan: " Oh? Great timing. Come in."

Ah Jian: " This slave excuse himself, Your Majesty."

Ah Jian disappeared the moment Long Quan nodded his head. The guard opened the door for Long Yang to enter and closes the door after he stepped in. Long Yang was very nervous and surprised because this was the first time that Long Quan agreed to meet him. Even when Long Yang's mother died, Long Quan never came to see him nor his death mother. And the worse thing was, Long Quan didn't recognize Long Yang when they met in the palace. He nervously walked towards Long Quan's desk and kneeled with his fist cupped.

Long Yang: " Greetings to Imperial Father."

Long Quan: " Mmm, what do you want?"

Long Yang finally got his hope high that Long Quan would acknowledge him just to be crushed by Long Quan's cold and indifferent treatment. Long Yang knuckles turned white as he gripped on his fist too tight.

Long Yang: " This son want to ask a lifetime request from Imperial Father."

Long Quan: " What is it?"

Long Yang: " Please let me marry Miss Xu."

Long Quan: " Miss Xu? Why?"

Long Yang: " This son had fallen for Miss Xu in the first sight, Imperial Father."

Long Quan: " Hhmm…"

Long Yang's head was lowered so he couldn't see Long Quan's sly smirk.

Long Quan: " Fine."

Long Yang immediately whipped up his head in surprise. His eyes were widened in disbelief and his mouth was agape from Long Quan's statement.

Long Yang: " Im-Imperial Father, you agree with my request?"

Long Yang asked in disbelief.

Long Quan: " Mm."

Even though it was a cold response, Long Yang was still happy that he had possibility to marry Hong er.

Long Yang: " This son thanked Imperial Father for your generosity."

Long Quan: " Mm, if there is nothing else, get out."

Long Yang: " Understood."

Long Yang bowed to Long Quan and walked out from Long Quan's studyroom. His heart was thumping really hard that he couldn't hold back his smile from creeping out from his lips. Just with the thought that Hong er would marry to him and smiled at him all the time could make him this ecstatic. What would happen to him if his dream became reality, Long Yang couldn't imagine how happy he would get.

Li Qianzi sat beside Long Quan and smiling happily that she finally achieve her goal but she didn't know why Long Shangu was distracted and frowning even though they were finally together like how they promised each other. She gently shook Long Shangu's arm to wake him up from his daydream and worriedly asked him.

Li Qianzi: " Your Highness, are you okay?"

Long Shangu finally snapped out of his mind, he turned his head towards Li Qianzi and pushed away her hand from his arm before he stood up from his seat.

Long Shangu: " I am going to talk to Imperial Father."

Without bothering to hear Li Qianzi's reply, he walked away with large stride. Li Qianzi could only dejectedly look at Long Shangu's back.

Long Shangu entered to Long Quan's studyroom after he got Long Quan's permission. He cupped his fist and bowed to Long Quan.

Long Quan: " What is it?"

Long Shangu: " Imperial Father, please allow me to make Miss Xu as my concubine."

The moment Long Shangu ended his sentence, Long Quan slammed down his brush and look at Long Shangu with threatening eyes. Long Shangu shivered under Long Quan's eyes.

Long Quan: " No."

Long Shangu: " But-"

Long Quan: " No means no! If you understand what I am saying then get out!"

Long Shangu bit his inner lip and gripped his hand. He bowed to Long Quan and walked out with a frown on his face. He knew what his father personality and temperament, Long Quan wouldn't get angry easily in any matter except something that related to Xu Tingfeng or Xu family. If Long Quan was this mad at his statement, it meant his statement would interfere Long Quan's plan.

Long Shangu: ' Father, you think I don't know that you didn't want to pass me your throne. Then don't blame me if I use force to take it. Everything I want, will be mine. And no one can change that.'

Hong er arrived at Xu residence (capital) and told Meiyun and Huayun to pack her things as quick as possible. Not long after, Ah Tong and Ah Xi appeared behind Hong er and reported everything they knew. Hong er listened carefully and furrowed her eyebrow. After they finished reporting, Meiyun and Huayun came out from Hong er's bedroom with three luggage. They tied up the luggage and ready to depart. Then suddenly a black clothed man appeared in front of Hong er.

The black clothed men kneeled and cupped their fist to Hong er. Hong er recognizes him, he was in elite forces and specialized in passing message. Hong er' bad feeling surged up again when she saw that he was panting tiredly. It meant the message was very urgent. Hong er cupped his fist back and worriedly asked him.

Hong er: " Wh-What happened?"

The black clothed man looked up to Hong er.

Black clothed man: " Young Miss, please stay calm after you listen to this."

Meiyun and Huayun looked at him with suspicious eyes, they knew something bad happened and it was related to Hong er. Hong er gripped her hand to calm down, she nodded her head towards the black clothed man then he continued his message.

Black clothed man: " General Sheng has died in the mission."
