Days passed and the feud between the Kingdom of Rockstone and the Kingdom of Zodasian about the border line and the death of Mo Jingchen had been stirred toward the direction that Xiao Jun wanted.
Currently, both Kingdoms were trying to establish cooperation under Xiao Jun's control.
Xiao Jun let the envoy that was sent by Zodasian Kingdom to pass through Cheng Chuan forest.
Cheng Chuan forest was a common route that was used to go to the Kingdom of Rockstone from the Kingdom of Zodasian and the otherwise.
That was why as long as Xiao Jun had enough manpower to block both side, it was quite easy enough for Xiao Jun to intercepting all the envoys and all of the letters that was brought from and for both Kingdoms when he stirred trouble for both of them.
And for that, he let Ju Long to handle all of those matters as he had many people under him to have done the job.
Today, the envoy from Zodasian would arrive under Mo Qin Yi and his cavalry protection. The Emperor Mo Qian Yuan didn't want something wrong happened again this time, so he was going all out to ensure the safety of the envoy.
Especially, when the envoy from Zodasian Kingdom was no other than General Meng, Meng Yi Ran's father. He was a prominent figure in Zodasian Kingdom's military.
It showed how serious the situation and how Zodasian's Emperor didn't take this issue lightly. Not only they were in disadvantage because they were being a scapegoat for Azura's dirty scheme against Rockstone, but they were also had lost their previous envoys when they were looking for explanation from the Kingdom's of Rockstone side.
Not to mention the second princess from Zodasian Kingdom, Princess Lin Yiren and General Meng's daughter, had suffered injustice in Rockstone's palace because of this misunderstanding.
At least this was what the situation that Xiao Jun wanted. He managed to create this kind of situation for his own advantage while he kept misguided both Emperors to the wrong direction, without Xiao Zi knew about the imminent danger that would come to his way.
For now, Princess Lin Yiren and Meng Yi Ran have been released from house arrest and could go out and in from their own courtyard as they please again, and the first person they went to was Zhao Tianqi for complained.
They couldn't bother the Emperor Mo Qian Yuan as they had learnt the situation has become very complicated, but they could still trouble The Crown princess for this.
Unfortunately, because of the slapping incident, where the crown prince Mo Qin Yi slapped his crown princess, Zhao Tianqi didn't wish to meet any of them, not to mention listening to their petty whining.
However the same thing didn't happen to Imperial concubine Lin, Lin Xingyan, the Emperor Mo Qian Yuan locked her up inside her courtyard for the reason that was still unclear.
The Emperor also didn't come to visit her, hence no one knew for what base the imperial concubine Lin was grounded.
When the night fell into a deep darkness and the moon shone brightly in the sky without sparkling stars and white clouds, a familiar figure shuffled between corridors after corridors inside the Emperor's harem.
His footsteps were so light like feathers until no sound could be heard as his presence couldn't be noticed by anyone around, he entered one of the chambers.
Once he was inside, his eyes fixed on the figure behind a thin white curtain, who was lying on the bed, her black long hair scattered around her pillow and face.
As if invincible hands had pushed him, the man started to walk steadily toward the woman, his eyes were in trance as the pulled getting stronger.
He had an urge to be near her and held her in his arms, but someone interrupted him and he almost unsheathed his sword and stabbed that person subconsciously.
However, the moment he saw the fear on the intruder's face, he retracted his sword out of reflex and pushed her to the ground.
As the young maidservant fell with shock, she cried in panic. "Prince Mo Xuan Fei!"
Mo Xuan Fei's eyes hardened as he heard the young maidservant loud voice, he pointed his sword again toward her. "Quiet." He said icily.
Yi Ze, the young maidservant who has been with Imperial Concubine Lin Xingyan ever since she was bestowed as one the Emperor's woman, was looking at the tip of the sword with ghastly face pale, her lips ajar as if she was trying to say something, but she couldn't say it out loud.
"Go outside and guard the door." Mo Xuan Fei glanced at the door as he signaled for her to go.
Nodding her head, Yi Ze stood up hastily and walked out of the room, leaving Mo Xuan Fei and the sleeping Lin Xinyang alone inside the room.
If someone should appear at this time and found out about this secret meeting, not only the prince Mo Xuan Fei and the imperial concubine Lin Xinyang who would be in great trouble. She, as a minor and insignificant person would be the first person who would be beheaded under the Emperor's wrath.
Yi Ze, as the most closest and trusted maid that Lin Xingyan had, it was natural for her to know the affair between both of them.
She had to remind her mistress about the consequence that she would face once the Emperor knew about this, but Lin Xingyan simply didn't hear her and Yi Ze couldn't say otherwise while helping them to keep their affair remained as a secret.
Yi Ze could only sigh and drag her body to follow the prince's order and kept watch at the door.
Once Yi Ze was out, Mo Xuan Fei approached Lin Xingyan.
The woman was sleeping soundly, unaware of the world around her as she curled herself like a ball.
It has been a while since Mo Xuan Fei last saw her sleep like this.
He touched the woman rosy cheeks as he put strands of her hair behind her ear, she looked vulnerable and pure in her sleep.
Parts of her that Mo Xuan Fei loved the most but unfortunately the Emperor felt the same way.
He had to grit his teeth and ball his hand into fist to keep his anger at bay the moment an image of another man had touched her played before his eyes while he could do nothing about it.
He was so helpless. Only at this time, how he wished he had enough power to keep her for himself.
Probably, it was because his presence or his touched, but the next second Lin Xingyan let out a small grunt and stirred awake.
Her small face scrunched because of discomfort as her lashes flutter opened. Her sleepy eyes fixed on Mo Xuan Fei's face.
"Xuan Fei?" She called out his name softly.
Mo Xuan Fei smiled, how he loved the way she called out his name. "It's me…"
However, the next second panic appeared in her eyes while she tried to sit. "Xuan Fei, you can't be here… the Emperor has been suspicious about our relationship." Fear was palpable in her voice.
