The King went out of Beauty Feng's courtyard with a fierce face.

Xiao Bao was curious but not surprised. The same thing happened to Ping Junwang every time he crossed paths with Feng Yanyan. The young Xiao forgot that it was rare for Wangye to show this thunderous expression.

That day, all of the King's subordinates were wondering what kind of fool offended Wangye that her Highness hid inside her courtyard but sent out a message that could only be summarized as telling them to double their work.

Feng Yanyan was left in the room confused as hell what he did. He went from being mad to he didn't even know what this was.

His three maids were concerned after seeing Wangye storm off like that. But when they entered the room, the younger two immediately turned crimson.

Beauty Feng was short of looking ravaged. Well, that was an exaggeration.

His hair and lapels were messed up and there seemed to be a reddening mark on his neck.

Only JuZi was in her right mind. Her mentality was really strong.

The oldest palace maid approached Feng Yanyan and fixed his clothes.

"Young master... did Wangye for-"

Even before she could use the word force, Feng Yanyan shot up from his seat.

"Zizi, does it look like that?" His smile was the widest she had ever seen.

"I guess not."

Beauty Feng started laughing like a maniac and kept mumbling to himself.

"What in the world? I never knew I had that effect on her. AHAHAHAHAA! Oops I gotta stay quiet." But he was still giggling.

The maidens stifled their secondhand embarrassment as they watched him roll all over the couch like a worm.

In all of Suliang, there was only one Feng Yanyan who could laugh after angering Wan Li Wang like that.

"Young master..." Pu Tao had to douse his happiness with the harsh reality.

He stopped doing his worm-like dance moves and looked at the girl.

"What is it?"

"Just to let you know... her Highness came here without sleeping for days because she learned that you hid in your room and weren't eating."

Feng Yanyan lost the smile on his face.

"Ah, yes. Elder brother Li said that the doctor was surprised that Wangye wasn't running a fever and  still came here." Jiao added.

JuZi looked at the two younger maids. So while she was worrying about the young master, these two were gossiping with Eunuch Cheng. And they were now calling him Elder Brother?

"So young master should not act willfully all the time. Wangye is just too nice. Jiaojiao, go and heat the lunch earlier." She just ended it with this.

Young master Feng obediently ate the lunch served to him.

All the while, he was thinking 'Damn, was she delirious? That's why she did that?'

The next morning...

"Wangye, young master Feng is here." Someone called from the outside.

But the figure on the table kept her forehead propped up by her hand as though she wasn't hearing anything. The only thing in her eyes right now are the multitude of things to do.

In the dim room only lit by the single lamp on the desk, the King looked grim as ever as she read and wrote orders endlessly.

Outside, there was an evident worry on Cheng Li's face. His adoptive father, Chief Cheng Gong, left him in charge of Zhongqing at the orders of the King. The old eunuch would now focus on managing the whole wangfu and wouldn't have time to look after Zhongqing.
