"This…" the empress was somewhat hesitating. If a prince were to stay with him, and if he was to meet with any unexpected misfortune, it would be difficult for her to escape from obligations, especially here where all people are in, not like the palace where she can close the people mouths Not waiting for her to think out of a better way, Xie Xuanwu continued speaking, "If either of the princes is not willing, then it is also alright if I could squeeze with others."

the third prince's gaze flashed but he did not speak. Even though the second prince did not know what his mother was planning, he could vaguely guess that this trip has some trick that targeted the first prince. being spoked, he coldly said, "I am used to living alone."

"As such…" Xie Xuanwu mumbled.

seeing this the empress was worried for some troubles so she said " do not worry your highness we will all live near to your room, then suit yourself and sleep to rest early"

they all went to their room and slept.

.....

"Replying to your highness, only high level royals guests can stay in this particular room. The empress had instructed to leave this room for the first prince." The young monk said as his head lowered."Help me to thank the empress for her care" xie xuanwu said lightly but his eyes were looking around. This room was located the innermost of the area, which meant that the surroundings were inaccessible. So if one were to scream, it would be useless.It was rare to see that they even seal off any survival route.

which made xie xuanwu more sure that something is wrong.

he entered the room and made the servants wait outside, and he started checking the room.

finding nothing didn't lowered his guard so he look around more and noticed the incense. he frowned and he walked toward it and took it out and smelled it carefully. after smelling it his brows tightened, he felt that there is something wrong with this incense.

being in the palace you will be taught many poisons and protect your self from them but rarely some follows, but to him, he was someone who experience all poisons and aphrodisiac so ofcourse he noticed that this is an aphrodisiac so he felt disgust.

he left the room secretly to meet assassins in the way on the roof top of the room, where a fight broke and they moved from a roof to another

he was able to kill some of them but soon he was surrounded so he broke the roof top and fall down to the inside of the room where assassins also jumped down and another fight started.

but suddenly the assassins were all dead in a second.

xie xuanwu shivered, feeling something he turned back to see a man, with a towel around his waist and water drops falling from his long raven hair to his muscular chest that scene made xie xuanwu feels that the temperature is raising up so he turned around.

this man was no other than the general cu qin who is also his future husband.

Cu Qin smirked and got near to the blushing xie xuanwu and put his arm around his waist half hugging him and raised his chin with his other hand then he kissed him.

xie xuanwu widen his eyes, bite his lips to weaken his grasp so he could push him, which he did and xie xuanwu left in hurry.

seeing him running like a cat with his reddish ear made him raised his eyebrows and he touched the bitten area on his lips with his fingers, seeing the small drop of blood made him smirked " what a cute teeth this kitten got, he made me want to eat him all"
