No, that won’t work! She was a stubborn
one, she wouldn’t just go with him for no reason! Even if he took her by force,
with all the crazy drugs that she has, the entire military of Yian might not be
able to keep her contained. Not to mention that if she was truly upset, she
could easily hid in her dimension for 3-5 months, then what was he to do?

Ling Juechen moved away from the window.
The little girl was already yawning. With sleeping eyes, she stumbled back into
her own house. The way she had her eyes closed, even Ling Juechen was worried
that she’d trip over the doorstep and fall. While he was worried about her, the
little girl stumbled onto her bedstove and fell back asleep.
Ling Juechen continued to stand outside
the window and watched the little girl sleep through the crack of the window.
She slept the same unsightly way she used to – drooling all over the place. Yet
it was a though he could never have enough of her look! She was only 11, that
was too young. If he steal her and raise her at home, would people think he’s a
pedophilic?
Ling Juechen felt a sense of
helplessness. Whether it was the past life or this, he still didn’t know what
to do with her!
Yet, all the princes were fighting over
the throne right now, it would be a bad time to take her back nonetheless. It
would appear that he couldn’t standby as an outsider anymore! He’d need to
light a fire under these princes to escalate the fight! The more escalated it
was, the sooner it would be over, right?
But, before he left, he must make some
arrangements for his girl. Especially her healing and apothecary skills. He
must find a way to let them shine!
Ling Juechen stood outside the window the
entire night. He finally left the courtyard unwillingly when the sky was
starting to get bright and there were stirring inside the house.
“Ying Mei!” After he had returned to his
camp in the valley, Ling Juechen summoned Ying Mei. “I want you to head back to
Yian immediately and bring back the sage apothecary!”
Sage apothecary? The scam artist that
hung around the Hall of Hidden Souls? He was no good fella. He had all sorts of
crazy medicines with him, would he just come with him obediently? Ying Mei had
bad experience with that old man in the past, so he was very hesitant about
this new assignment.
Ling Juechen was quite familiar with how
the old man was like so he added, “Tell him that the hall master has a once in
a lifetime genius disciple for him; if he doesn’t come, I am going to tap sage
healer next!”
The sage apothecary and sage healer were
trained from the same school and also archnemesis of each other. Sage apothecary
looked down upon sage healer’s alchemical skills and sage healer, on the other
hand, also frowned on sage apothecary’s healing skills. Sage healer swore that
he would mentor disciple that would excel beyond sage apothecary; and sage apothecary
also sword up and down that he would mentor a disciple that would make sage
healer’s jaw dropped. The two have been at it for half of their lives and they
still acted like two cocks meeting in a fighting ring whenever they ran into
each other!
With the reminder, Ying Mei suddenly saw
the solution presented to him. He was now happy to head toward the city of Yian.
“General, the troop is ready and waiting
for your order!” Sun Yoou noticed the general coming from outside the valley
and was surprised by that, but he didn’t let that show.
“You, take the troop and split in three
groups! You can handle the details!” Ling Juechen had changed his mind. Screw
the xuepo! Screw the medicinal guide! More likely than not the emperor was
faking illness to test his princes. Has he never heard of the story “The Boy
Who Cries Wolves”?
Sure enough, shortly after the emperor
fallen ill, the second prince jumped out and ordered the general, who had
always only take direct orders from the emperor, to leave the city and look for
herbs for the emperor – a complete waste of his talent.
He had no idea what went through the
second prince’s mind. If he wanted to become the next in line for the throne,
he should be kissing up to the oh-so-popular general in the office, not to send
him on wild goose chase. Did he really think Ling Juechen would put up with
that? If that pig brain truly became the next emperor, Yian, one of the three
most powerful country, would probably start declining in no time!

Please don't fight for the throne! you can't have only one girl that way, it's better to have a good puppet like the second prince.. that way you can reign while pushing all the tedious work to your brother. :)
