Feng Yu Jiu Tian - Volume 5 - Chapter 12

CHAPTER 12

When Feng Ming woke up, he noticed that Rong Tian was gone. Feng Ming was lying on the bed staring at Lu-Dan's red scarf. After thinking for a long time, he became more and more headache. He called Chiu Yue and Chiu Xing to change clothes. He found that Chiu Lan was missing.

"Chiu Lan? Still angry?"

Chiu yue said: "How can Chiu Lan get mad at the Duke? This morning, the king praised the tofu he prepared last night. Now he's sweating and getting ready by working on a new recipe !!"

"Rong Hu also tried to help, however, and Chiu Lan expelled him from the kitchen. He probably sneaked somewhere inside the Crown Prince's residence."

Feng Ming thinks of Rong Hu and Chiu Lan, and feels happy in his heart. Look at Chiu Yue and Chiu Xing: "Do you already know that?"

"Even a blind person could see through him."

They both tell stories to Feng Ming about things that happened to Chiu Lan, Rong Hu and Feng Ming wished they had seen everything.

"Well, I missed a lot of fun"

Chiu Yue helped Feng Ming put on his boots: "Where will the Duke go?"

"Look at Lu-Dan."

He crossed the hall alone and went to see Lu-Dan and the courtyard where he was with the servant. Lu-Dan was sitting reading in the chair. He looked up and saw the figure of Feng Ming and stood up surprised: "Duke Ming has come"

"Everyone is calm! I am the most relaxed person in the palace." Feng Ming walked in the door and chose a chair to sit and ask: "What is the National advisor looking at?"

"Just take a copy of that."

Feng Ming looked him in the eye and looked at him. It turned out to be a book about the history of Xi Rei. He smiled and said, "If you have patience, I fall asleep every time I read it. Today is good weather. I should have accompanied you for a walk, but I can't leave Prince's Palace. The National advisor came from afar, are you interested in visiting the city of Xi Rei, to understand the customs? I know that several guards will accompany you to go shopping. "

Lu-Dan left his book and looked directly at Feng Ming. He asked softly: "Can Lu-Dan leave the palace freely?"

"Of course."

"This ... Duke Ming needs to ask the Great King for permission."

"Why?"

"Since I can't go out, it's better to read a book. Please excuse Lu-Dan for being rude, I don't feel like talking today. "

Feng Ming stood up · There must be some misunderstanding, let me ask. "

On the way back, Feng Ming controlled a guard and asked: "Has the Great King already finished his meeting?"

"Your Majesty has not done it; it seems they will take longer."

"Then tell Rong Hu to come here."

After a while, Rong Hu arrived and, when he entered the door, asked: "Duke Ming ordered the guard to call me here, did something happen?"

Feng Ming jumped up and asked, "What about Lu-Dan's situation? Can't you leave the palace? You are in charge of the guards inside the palace, what did the Great King say? "

"Lu-Dan? In addition to the residence of the crown prince, he does not have permission to leave. The Great King had specially commanded, telling us that the guards would follow each of his movements. "

Feng Ming frowned: Why?

Rong Hu obviously knew it for a long time and smiled: "Duke Ming doesn't know? Since Lu-Dan had entered this place, the Great King had already ordered the guards to follow him. He is an advisor to a country and has all the ability to strongly change Dong-Fan. He is also a special person of that king. To attract him here, the Great King had to waste a lot of effort. "

Feng Ming had long felt that Rong Tian was acting strangely on this matter, using sweet words to promise the food supply so Lu-Dan had to travel thousands of kilometers to come here. This secret plot was just under Feng Ming's nose.

Rong Hu has just finished speaking, when Feng Ming already came out the door: "I have to find Rong Tian to clarify this problem."

Walking quickly halfway, it was the same time that Rong Tian returned, smiled and said, "Why are you so attentive to come here and welcome me?" Since there were about 10 other judicial officials there greeting Feng Ming.

Feng Ming saw many people, but it was difficult to attack immediately. He looked at Rong Tian and lowered his voice: "I have something to tell him once we return."

Dragging Rong Tian into the room and interrogating behavior, Feng Ming asked, "So what do you plan on doing with Lu-Dan? Why did you attract him here and then use an excuse to imprison him?"

Rong Tian looked at him calmly: Is this Duke Ming who, in the name of Lu-Dan, is asking for justice or because he has a simple mind maybe you suspect that the king is watching Lu-Dan and you're jealous? "He grabbed the fist of Feng Ming and laughed: "I was planning to let Lu-Dan try a little more confinement for a few days, but he has thought of a way to move you." -Dan come here. "

After a moment, Lu-Dan appeared. After greeting Rong Tian, he looked at Feng Ming.

"National Counselor Please take a seat. In recent days, I was busy in judicial matters, so it is a bit late. Today, I ordered the head of agriculture to recalculate food reserves, although the number that the Advisor requested is a bit high, but when Xi Rei rechecks a little, we still have the ability to meet the amount that Dong- Fan needs to pass this. Difficult moment."

"Thank you very much, great king." Lu-Dan's expression brightened.

"However, I like to treat the matter for mutual benefit. That amount of food supply, I can't give Dong-Fan everything for anything. "

"As long as we can help everyone in Dong-Fan through this difficult winter, my King openly presents all the treasures inside the palace ... everything except the jewel of" Heaven and Earth. "

Rong Tian smiled in a way that would make anyone stand up.

Feng Ming looked him in the eye and asked Lu-Dan: "What is the jewel of" heaven and earth "?

Lu-Dan's attitude towards Feng Ming was very good. He smiled slightly: "That is the treasure of our nation; it contains a strong magical power of the earth, and was worshiped by many generations of Kings who acquired the deepest sense of power. "

Hearing this, Feng Ming recalled an old story he learned in sequence.

The protagonist of the story is Qin Huang, famous for his brutality, and Lan Xiangru, who is brave. It was a time of chaos between countries; strong countries harassed the weak and forced the country to hand over their nation's treasure.

Rong Tian wanted to move in this direction? Feng Ming's heart froze, he looked secretly at Rong Tian, and all the seriousness features clearly appeared on his beautiful face. If there is a day to conquer the world, with great power in your hands, will it become another Qin Shi Huang?

"Counselor, you don't need to misunderstand. The jewel of "Heaven and earth" is very mysterious, I just want to borrow it to look at it and I have no intention of keeping it. "

Worse, even the excuse is similar to the story, Feng Ming changed his face, turned to see how Lu-Dan was handled.

Lu-Dan's expression does not move, shaking his thick eyelashes, he said weakly: "The jewel of heaven and earth is not a common element, something that Lu-Dan has no method of acquiring. If you do not intend to provide food supplies, allow Lu-Dan to excuse himself from the palace and inform my King quickly. "

"Counselor, there is no need to run. I already sent someone to inform the King of Dong-Fan and tell him that the Advisor would like to stay here for a few more days. "

The atmosphere in the room became increasingly serious with the tension.

Lu-Dan raised his beautiful and silent eyes and whispered: "Lu-Dan is only a humble official, does the Great King believe that taking me hostage will allow him to win the jewel of Heaven and Earth?"

"About this, you let your King decide, as an advisor, you can be sure."

Two equally intense looks collided

"Rong Hu" Rong Tian called Rong Hu "accompany the Advisor to your room, order the people who take care of your safety, don't let anything happen."

Rong Hu received the order. Lu-Dan got up slowly, with no signs of worry or trouble, just greeted Feng Ming politely.

"Lu-Dan will leave. Duke Ming, please, don't forget what Lu-Dan has entrusted to you. "

Seeing that Lu-Dan is gone, Rong Tian also rose freely and smiled intimately at Feng Ming.

"Now you understand why I had to work hard to attract him here? With Lu-Dan in our hands, we will not be afraid that Dong-Fan does not agree, we will quickly receive news. Ha ha, quickly bring the good wine from here, tell Chiu Lan to bring good food. Why don't you and I have fun too? "

Feng Ming got up hurriedly and entered the room without expression.

"Feng Ming?" Rong Tian pursued him, but could not open the inner door was actually locked by Feng Ming.
