Chapter Twenty-seven 

In Tai Ping, once princes reach the age of fifteen, they would be given officially prince ranks and allow to go out of the palace to have their princes' residences. As for Tang Wudi, it was because of Tang Zhong guilt that at the age of thirteen, he was given the permission to build his prince residence. And Tang Wudi at the age of thirteen also was given the most prestigious rank for prince, first rank Zhen prince.

For the whole history of Tai Ping, prince that were given first rank Zhen prince have an eighty percent chance of being appointed crown prince. Of course, Tang Zhong only request to Tang Wudi is for him to move out of the palace at age fifteen despite his prince rank has already been given and his residence had already been built.

Tang Wudi walk into the room that he had design for Ying Zetian and gently placed him on the bed. Tang Wudi than reluctantly left the room as Ying one and Ying two appear to help the unconscious Ying Zetian for her bath. Tang Wudi was once scolded badly by Ying Zetian when he tries to help him for bathing after an especially tiring day. So up to now, Tang Wudi knew better than to try and cross Ying Zetian already set boundaries despite his inner reluctance to left Ying Zetian.

Tang Wudi had his bath already and was already at the entrance of Ying Zetian's room. Tang Wudi look at his dark guard and was given the go ahead to signal that Ying Zetian dark guards had already finished helping her with her bath. After five years of separation, Ying Zetian dark guards had once wanted to report to Ying Zetian of Tang Wudi's seemingly overly possessiveness of Ying Zetian after their reconcile.

But Ying Zetian dark guards were beaten into submission by Tang Wudi's dark guards. Tang Wudi had his dark guards to train along with him with the teachers that were found by Tang Zhong. Tang Wudi's dark guards had learn with a blood lesson of not disturbing him when he was with Ying Zetian. Tang Wudi dark guards were the first one to discover the strange behavior of their master.

Tang Wudi had saw the question mark look in his top dark guard eyes. It was at this moment that the normally mild temper Tang Wudi with just a wave of his hand send his most trusted top dark guard crashing into a tree at least ten meters away, while splintering the tree in the process. That dark guard took at least two months to recover from his injuries even with the most precious medical herbs. It was than Tang Wudi dark guards learn their lesson of not being near their master when he was with Ying Zetian.

That dark side of Tang Wudi was just too frightening to his dark guards as compared to the normal Tang Wudi. It was like two polar opposites. Especially when the normal Tang Wudi is even willing to be injured instead of his dark guard and like Ying Zetian will always be in the forefront of any fights. Ying Zetian dark guards look at Tang Wudi's predator like dark guards and mentally lit a candle and pray for their master. Ying Zetian's dark guards could only console themselves that Tang Wudi is the only one in the whole world that will not betray their master. Tang Wudi dark guards than crave a friendly arm over their compatriots and retreat a safe distance away.

When Tang Wudi had sense that the dark guards were a safe distance away, then was the dark angel that was deep in his soul released. Tang Wudi had a photographic memory, so he softly laid a kiss on each inch of Ying Zetian's skin that he remembers in the searing bad memory just now that was not cover by her clothing. Although in his memory, Tang Wudi knew that Nan Gong Jing did not touch Ying Zetian in any way, but he just hates. Tang Wudi just hate anyone being near Ying Zetian and that include even Mama Tang.

Tang Wudi just love the feeling that Ying Zetian did not retreat from him in her sleep. Tang Wudi sigh, when will be the day when Ying Zetian was the same with him when she was awake? Tang Wudi left the lovely deep red lips of Ying Zetian to the last. A shiver of pleasure run through the whole of Tang Wudi when he feels Ying Zetian reacting to his kiss when he plunders her lips like it was the most precious treasure which is to him.

Tang Wudi softly place a hand on Ying Zetian's face with the reverence that one would do with a piece of easily broken treasure and softly whisper.

"Elder brother, I am willing to let you have your freedom and giving you the greatest respect. But nobody and I mean nobody could block me from being with you. So, be an obedient child and do not let anyone into your heart expect for me, okay? If not, you will not be willing to face how I will treat you. Even if you wanted to die, I will not let anyone be with you. After all I build the prince residence like a self-sufficient city, and I do not mind force keeping you forever in this prince residence if you are not an obedient child. If you did not say anything, I will deem that you have agree to what I said."

Tang Wudi then smile gently while sliding into bed and pulling Ying Zetian into his embrace. The smile was like the softest summer breeze that will cool a person that was heated up by the hot summer weather. But it was a great contrast to the possessive madness that was reflected in Tang Wudi's eyes.
