The days were calm and peace prevailed the entire nation. Only the few knew of the danger that was yet to be removed. After the declaration of Pei jins and Yushengs union all the three countries were in shock and regret.
They cursed Pei Jin to act to quickly and swiftly not giving them a chance to even compete. Now with this powerful union Nanling was truly soaring dragon above clouds.
While the two countries became polite and humble Huajin was totally different. As if competing huajin also established their crown prince a week later the dragon boat festival. The third prince born from empress managed to step above all his seven brothers and snatched the crown.
Yusheng and Pei Jin knew that this was a challenge from them. They knew they were cooking various plot to destroy the Nanling. Nor Yusheng or Pei Jin had a inch of worry from their jumping.
Yusheng and Pei Jin was in royal study of emperor with prime minister to discuss about sorting these clowns. Pei Jin has prepared a plan to give the first strike before the counties gatherings at the end of the year.
Leaning his back in relaxed posture and with his lazy deep voice "Fuhuang...waiting is like losing and wasting the opportunities.. let's host a royal hunt for all the four countries.. we will invite the crown princes and their chosen batch to participate..
We will declare it as a show of maintaining peace and friendship along with the talents each country possesses. Because of Yu'er they will definetly participate to gain some favor while also maintaining their act of being on friendly terms.
Now with all the four countries having selected their crown princes they would also take it as the time to bond for future. We will host this hunt on the Shenlin imperial hunting ground of Jing on the second week of September for a week" explains Pei Jin.
Emperor is confused so he asks "Jin'er the idea is not bad but how are we going to teach huajin a lesson? Being the host we will be responsible for their safety restricting us in various ways??"
Pei Jin smirks "we will be doing nothing.. but there will be others who definetly wants to do the same thing that we desire.. for Khan and Qing we need not worry as they know their weakness.. at this moment they even desperately wants to be our allies... their current crown princes are with good heads knowing when to push and pull back..
For huajin...some people are very unhappy with Shiyou being the crown prince.. though it looks calm on surface but his position is unstable..storm is brewing in their court.. we just need to give that party a place to vent his frustration and mix a little of our spice.." replies Pei Jin very calmly.
"Ah Jin will ready a pot and I will be adding the spice, emperor just relax..eat the hunt.. and enjoy scenery" says Yusheng with her mischievous smile.
Emperor smiles like a fox and pointing his finger at the young couple "little devils.. okay Zhen won't ask further..Zhen is already old and needs much relaxation" acts emperor making prime minister and Pei Jin twitch their lips.
Inside they were thinking "who's old.. your vigor when climbing a tree to pick fruit for empress.. singing and dancing to entertain empress.. eating and drinking like pig these days is not a bit oldish..
Just say it is perfect for you to be lazy and have your lovely time with wife"
Getting that dubious and mocking looks from his son and brother in law emperor coughs and turns his head. While Prime minister feeling helpless from this so called old brother in law turns to look at his nephew to discuss.
