Chapter 40 - News

Every hunting feast, the country held a very large competition where anyone could enter, even the commoners, and they could even compete with one of the nobles, in which they could earn a title.

For this special event in the final tournament, the emperor might attend because he really liked this kind of event, but if there is an important war that he needs to win, he will not be seen in the event, but this time they are confident that their emperor will attend because of the recent victory of the Zhou Country.

When the emperor is not present, the one who has a much higher position is Jin Wangye, who is a very reliable man. They don't know the reason, but somehow this prince is the only one who didn't get involved in taking the crown from their father.

Now the previous emperor is gone and is currently traveling the world with the previous queen. They are both kind and warm people, so they think that they are the reason for this kind prince…

Or so they thought.

"I wonder when he will stop the war? Is he planning to unite this land into one?" Today is one of his busiest days. He's been planning on visiting Yanyu, but no matter what he does, he can't find the time to do so because of the papers that he needs to look at and approve.

"Hey, General Han, did my brother say something to you before he sent you here?" he asked the general who had just come back from the brigade.

"Your highness, the emperor is currently on his way, but it seems like he needs to do something on the way, so he traveled incognito," The Jin wangye thinks that maybe he went to give his regard to someone. He always did that every time he came victorious. He always got counsel from that person, but Jin Wangye doesn't know why his brother asks that person to live in the castle and make that person his adviser, since that is what he is doing to him.

"Hmm, so he'll come back, it seems like the people will be ecstatic to hear that their beloved emperor will finally come back." He smirked at the general, but he just gave him a nod.

"So does my brother look good?" Jin Wangye asked because of the boring reaction he got from the general.

"The emperor has been neglecting his meals, which made the soldiers worry when we left the camp; he looked like he was not feeling well. and also to add for the later statement, he didn't bring anyone with his journey." His statement made the wangye enraged.

"What did you say?! You already know that he doesn't look well, yet you let him go." The general just backed away a little before he answered.

"To answer wangye, we cannot handle the emperor because he is in his stubborn mood, and besides, I have someone follow him secretly to ensure his health." Because of what he said, the wangye just slacked back to his seat.

"Tss, that person, there's really no one who can stop him if he is acting that way, don't worry, I'll just send more soldiers to the Yun mountain and escort him back here." The general thanked the wangye and bid him goodbye, which made the wangye alone in the room.

"Tss, what a stubborn person he really never changes."
