Chapter 18.1

This year, Tongan bid farewell to the spring earlier. It’s only May, but the weather condition was extremely hot like June, no, July heat. The high officials and nobles who were unable to endure the summer heat, together with the whole family, moved to the northern part of the nation, the secondary capital, Tongde. Formerly, they had to wait until half of June before they could hold the northern inspection, however, there was the internal affairs officer who request to shift it to an earlier date.

The Northern inspection was one of Datong annual grand occasion every summer. Though, ever since the Emperor Jing Zong reigned, the unrest in northern area had excessively decreased, yet, they still conducted the inspection as a rare chance to escape the summer heat as well as to leave the miscellaneous rules in the imperial palace. The Northern inspection was a once in a year revelry festival that the multitude of the palace courtiers been looking forward to.

Lu Cang who was used to live in the moist and humid southern area, Hangzhou, since his childhood, in reality, it was about an equal to cope with the heat of summer in Tongan.

So that, on a certain night, while he was boringly turning and tossing aside the petitions in his royal study room, Jing happened to unexpectedly discover the petition for special purpose from the internal affairs administer who requested to move up the Northern Inspection schedule. He picked it up and spread it flatly on the writing desk, the extremely bold petition that suggested Jing to grant his approval.

He cast aside the already read in all earnestly pile of petitions on his table. Mostly, there weren’t anything important nor pressing matter.
Jing made a wry smile as he recalled the audacious in the extreme and brazenly commit an intervention, Lu Cang. But thinking about the certain someone that sweating profusely, as if overcome by the summer heat, underneath his body last night,
He braced up his writing brush and scraped a very large character by the bottom of the petition. He put on an “Urgent” stamp on that official document.

Assuming that Jing, who had consistently taken care of the national affairs, decrees and regulations, which normally was stressing, wouldn’t alter the Northern Inspection schedule at will again, all the palace courtiers was overjoyed upon hearing this good news. Under the command of the internal affairs administer, they began to prepare all the required supplies and appliances for the Northern Inspection all night long. The next morning, after finishing the morning court, Jing found out that the back court palace’s attendants were excitedly prepare the outfits for going on a long journey all along with the vehicles and the luggage of the articles of daily use as if they were carrying the new year’s cheerful spirit.

“Report, Your Majesty. Your subject has carried out Your Majesty’s order and already conducted the preparation for the Northern inspection at top speed. By tomorrow, the procession can already smoothly set out.” With his immensely proud expression, the internal affairs administer who sent the petition to request for the earlier schedule of the Northern inspection, Yang Zhong reported to Jing.

With his stoic face, Jing rigidly stared at Yang Zhuo. Until he successfully completely wiped off the smile from that face, then he turned his body to sit on the imperial carriage that had been waiting behind him. Indifferently, he ordered : “To the Marquis’ mansion.”

The Marquis mansion was located at the outside of the imperial city’s inner part. It was at an hour distance by foot. When the imperial carriage entered the Marquis’s mansion’s gate, as expected, Jing could see the Marquis’ attendants were preparing for the supplies that needed for a long journey. A warm and gentle smile immediately bubbled up from his stretched taut mouth.    

Although Tongde wasn’t as flourishing as Tongan, Situated in the northern area and surrounded by 3 mountains, the temperature was as lukewarm as spring all year long. Tongde also abounded in hot springs. The secondary palace was built in the southern area of Tongde, the wealthiest suburbs with a great reputation for it hot springs…..

In his head, Lu Cang’s solid body supposed to be pressing close to him in the hot springs. And of course they would rub and grind at each other and had a sexual intercourse mood. The highly privileged His Majesty Emperor leaked out an unsightly impatient smile.

Leaving the Imperial guards to stay on guard, without losing his graceful, he hurriedly rushed to the back yard where Lu Cang’s chamber located. But he was disappointed to find only Lu Cang’s personal attendant, who constantly glued close to Lu Cang, Xiao Sang. He was in the middle of sorting out the clothing and supplies in the room.

“Where’s the Lord?” Although his tone held the elegance and sophistication reserved for the Emperor, in truth Jing was gnashing his teeth in forbearance, patiently held in the raging flame of lust within his body.


Jing’s murderous aura scared Xiao Sang so much that he jumped. Stupefied for a long while before he could muster up a greeting. “The Lord is in his study room receiving the messenger from Hangzhou.”

Jing frowned with displeasure. Under his meticulous arrangement, he dispatched Lu Cang’s formerly outlaw sworn brothers to hold the post as official in the southern area. Although regarding this matter, Lu Cang had wrangled fiercely against him, but in the end, with his still worried apprehension, Lu Cang had no choice but accepted his brothers’ wishes to settle in the southern area.

Within these four to five years, although Lu Cang kept up his correspondence with his brothers, the distance between Jiangnan and Tongan was very far. Meeting each other every 3 months slowly changed to every 6, and then to only once a year.  This year in March, Cao Xin already made use of his official report to the capital to visit Lu Cang. It hadn’t been that long and yet, another person had come again. It really made Jing unable to help but anxious if something complicated would come out of this.

Pondering the situation, Jing already found himself standing in front of the study room’s door. Not knocking at all, Jing directly pushed open the door and stepped inside.

Inside, two men who had their back facing him jumped. The two faces that turned to face him at the same time looked unfamiliar. They weren’t from the brothers that he had known well.

Perhaps it was because since long ago he already had accustomed to Jing’s undeclared intrusion, Lu Cang was only a little startled, but quickly calmed down. Lu Cang had been the Marquis for 5 years. The passing years didn’t leave any trace of hardship on his dashing face. Instead, the tip of his ripened eyebrows had matured his eyes and increasing his charm even more.

"Your Majesty." A calm voice but filled with respectful manner from Lu Cang. Once Jing heard this kind of tone, he came to understand that the visitors were really not Lu Cang’s former acquaintances.

On the court, whether it was a private or a public occasion, Lu Cang would use this kind of not too close but not too distant tone to address Jing. Even he was fully aware that his and Jing’s affairs since long ago had been the public secret, he still restrained himself to not overstep his authority in the presence of other people.

Facing with more matured and more sensible Lu Cang, Jing could not help but miss those years ago, that crying and running wild little mountain brigand Lu Cang. However, he understood that to continue to live in royal court, that kind of  lawless Lu Cang was incapable of coping from the people words, which was even more dreadful than any regulation.

The conscience stricken caused Jing to be more and more doted on Lu Cang. Also, after he had severely punished several of high officials who dared to offend Lu Cang, hence majority of the officials sensibly recognized that by poking into the Emperor’s personal matters could bring them closer to the doorstep and banished. Besides, with Lu Cang’s restraining conduct, everybody could pretend that they didn’t know about Lu Cang and Jing’s relationship as well as turned a blind eye. The both of them never engaged in a huge conflict anymore, and had been living peacefully until now.     

Jing nodded his head, then seated himself on an old fashioned wooden armchair by his side. The two visitors who had been gaping and dumbstruck finally came to their senses and hurriedly kneeled down and paid their respect. “Long Live Your Majesty.”

Lu Cang introduced them, : “These two are merchants from Hangzhou. Second brother entrusted them to bring me the letter from Hangzhou.” On the small table beside him, there was an unopened letter, looked like they were engaging in a chat so he had no time to open the letter.

Gloriously waved his hand signaling the two men to raise : whilst in his heart, he had been secretly wondering when will the time for them to leave so that he and Lu Cang could have their sexual intercourse.

Most likely, they could see His Majesty the Emperor’s displeased expression, the never met with the highest figure merchants were frightened to the point they could only hurriedly bid Lu Cang farewell. In the end, it was when they were by the door and about to leave that they saw Jing’s finally relaxed face.
