Birthday

The Li Mother walked in front while her 2 sons and YuWang lingered close behind, many servants trailing behind them.

"How could you leave me to mother Heng, you know how evil can be" Li Feng said, putting his hand on his forehead and acting dramatically.

"What did you say Feng dear" Li mother said with a scary smile

"Nothing mother" Li Feng said, stepping further from his mother.

This caused Heng to giggle and Yu Wang to smile. They continued walking until they saw Li's father and many other guests. Many guests went up to greet Yu Wang and Li Feng, letting Li Heng have the time to run off to his father.

"Dad can you give me Li Feng's present please" Heng asked excitedly after finding his dad

"Sure thing Heng, just wait here a moment" Li father said walking away

After a minute or so Li's father came back with a red box and gave it to Li Heng.

"Thanks dad" Heng said with a big smile

Li's father nodded, patting his son on the head. After a while of greeting and chatting with the guests Yu Wang and Li Feng finally could have a breath. They quickly found Li Heng and went to his side.

"Brother here your present" Heng said handing the red box to Li Feng with a smile

Li Feng opened the box and inside was a book

"How did you know I was eyeing this book Heng" Li Feng asked as he smiled and patted his brothers head

"I heard you talking about it with Wang" Heng said smiling

"Thanks Heng for this present I will forgive you for earlier" Li Feng said hugging his brother

The party continued till late at night before everyone went home, Yu Wang being one of the last to leave.

"Here" Yu Wang said before walking away to his carriage

Li Feng opened the box to see a beautiful chessboard and chess pieces.

"What a beautiful board and pieces" Li father said examine the gift

"It late now you both should head to bed" Li mother said with a smile

The two siblings and their parents headed to their rooms and went to rest.

Six years has quickly passed and Heng was 12 while Li Feng and Yu Wang were 14. Over these years Heng hung out with You Wang alot most times with his brother also there and during these times he has continued to spread suspicion to Yu Wang on whether Li Feng really betrayed him or not. Yu Wang has put spies on Li Feng unlike in the original plot and have found nothing. This has made him question his past. Yu Wang has been made crown prince and rumors of his intelligence and strength have traveled far and wide.

Today was like many days, Li Feng and Yu Wang were busy doing their studies and many other activities. This left Heng alone with nothing to do.

"Lu want to go out?" Heng asked with a smile

Lu was the same age as Heng yet was much taller and had a more sturdy build then Heng looking like a handsome young man. Heng has also grown into a beautiful young man. He has lost most of his baby fat and has turned from cute to beautiful over the years.

"If that's what you wish master" Lu replied

Though Lu has warmed up to Heng over the years, his way of speaking is still quite cold and doesn't say more words than necessary.

"Your no fun" Heng said pouting

After Lu helped Heng get dressed, they set out on a carriage. Getting off at a crowded street corner, Lu helped Heng down.
