CHAPTER 3


Rong Tian asked the messenger to come in to inquire about the origin of the letter. The messenger stated that the secret letter was found in the borders of Yong Yin and Xi Lei. The person sending the letter was disguised with the intention of crossing Yong Yin, but was stopped by them. The letter was hidden on the person and when discovered, that person threw the letter into the water. They tried to quickly retrieve the letter and in doing so, the disguised person committed suicide before they could capture him for questioning. Part of the letter was wet so the ink was smeared, the readable portion of the letter related to Empress Dowager, so they didn’t want to delay and rushed to send the letter to Rong Tian.


After questioning meticulously about the disguised messenger and even what hand he used to stab himself with, Feng Ming anxiously wanted Rong Tian to aid Empress Dowager and bring her back to safety. Rong Tian looked long and hard at the letter as he felt something was odd about it – why did Tong Er address the letter to Miao Guang, someone who doesn’t seem to have much power and is from Li Kingdom, the biggest enemy of Xi Lei? After putting out this question, they finally realized that Tong Er must know that Ruo Yan had woken up. However, if this letter was sent to Li Kingdom then it should be addressed to Ruo Yan, so why would this letter be addressed to Miao Guang instead? They then speculated that this letter was purposely sent to let them discover it, hoping that they will not know that Ruo Yan is awake and will be lured into a trap set up for them. (“Ruo Yan is best at luring his enemies into a trap” according to Rong Tian.)


Lie Er suggested that perhaps they should create a trap within a trap since they finally discovered the hidden truth behind the letter. Chu Xing and Chu Yue were worried about Empress Dowager and scolded Lie Er for laughing at this critical moment. Lie Er told them that if Tong Er truly caught Empress Dowager then he wouldn’t conspire with Ruo Yan; instead, he would just threaten them.


FM: What are we going to do now? (asking Rong Tian)


RT: Ruo Yan wants to lure us out of our campsite and must have an ambush on the way back to Xi Lei. We will follow through with his plan to carry out our plan and destroy his ambush while he is unprepared and defeat him in Yong Yin. Since Yong Yin is not his territory, Xi Lei and Li Kingdom troops can’t charge hastily in; therefore, the overall strength of the ambush should not be massive.


FM: Then hurry up and give your order. RT: There is just a small problem.


FM: What is it?


RT: If we want to destroy his ambush, our number must be greater than the enemy. Also, our troops need to be composed of highly skilled soldiers. The troops I have are at most 1000 men and we need half of them to use as bait. This opportunity is very hard to come by. There’s a possibility that Ruo Yan will partcipate, if we can use this opportunity to kill Ruo Yan then it will help Xi Lei defeat its biggest adversary. I have to organize the best and brightest soldiers within this campsite.


Rong Tian tells Feng Ming that he will need Master Xiao’s elite men to help with this mission and requests for Feng Ming’s help.



Feng Ming felt his father wouldn’t want to talk to him at the moment and decided to go find Lady Yao Ye instead. He went to Rong Hu’s place and only saw Chiu Lan there caring for Rong Hu. Chiu Lan told Feng Ming she must have gone outside. Feng Ming found Lady Yao Ye in Cai Jiang’s room. He asked her what her third step was in dealing with the heartless swordsman who refused to give up his swordsmanship. Lady Yao Ye scolded Feng Ming for calling his father “heartless” and just explained to Feng Ming that her goal was to let Xiao Zong realize that he can follow his passion as well as being together with her. She tells Feng Ming that Cai Jiang’s hands are perfect for learning swordsmanship and if she brought him along on the battlefield, Xiao Zong would follow along to protect his successor. She decided to bring Cai Jiang to see Xiao Zong and told Feng Ming to wait for the good news.


Feng Ming went back to the meeting area and saw that there were more people present. A group of Rong Tian’s skilled commanders and Yong Yi, who was dragged in by Lie Er. Everyone was excited to learn that they could finally capture Ruo Yan.


YY: If Xi Lei King is successful, then Yong Yin will have one less threat to worry about. I only have 1000 elite soldiers and will give them to Xi Lei King to command.


Rong Tian saw Feng Ming and asked if he had met Lady Yao Ye. Apparently, Rong Tian had already guessed that Lady Yao Ye would use Master Xiao’s only grandson to reach her goal.


Lady Yao Ye came and brought Cai Jiang with her. She asked Rong Tian about his ambush plan and made a request for her to be the sole guardian of Cai Jiang. If she is, she will bring Cai Jiang onto the battlefield and Xiao Zong will follow along with his men to protect his heir.


Rong Tian didn’t agree to the offer since losing Cai Jiang — the only grandson of Master Xiao and a child who you can only find once in a hundred years — would be a huge loss for him and this ambush is just a small mission. In order to receive Cai Jiang, the offer should include 33 ships, everything on the ships, and the map of trading routes by sea.


Rong Tian explained that since Master Xiao has finally found a successor, he will put his heart and soul in teaching Cai Jiang. He will not have enough time to manage his shipping business and it will be best to hand over his business to his son, Feng Ming.


Lady Yao Ye agreed and told Rong Tian to quickly mobilize his troops while she persuade Xiao Zong to accept this negotiation.


After she left, Rong Tian turned to the slightly confused and shocked Feng Ming.


RT: Congratulations Duke Ming. From today onward, you might not be the most powerful person in the world, but you are the richest among everyone.


Feng Ming was upset that Rong Tian “sold off” Cai Jiang when he is his son. Rong Tian asked him if Cai Jiang is really his son and was happy when Feng Ming realized Cai Jiang wasn’t really his son.


Rong Tian pulled Feng Ming onto his lap and asked him if Master Xiao and Lady Yao Ye really are Cai Jiang’s grandparents. While asking, Rong Tian teased Feng Ming by blowing in his ear. That was when Feng Ming glared at him to make sure he kept his perverted hands to himself.


After answering that they were both grandparents of Cai Jiang, Rong Tian told Feng Ming that it was best for Cai Jiang to be with his real family.
