Jun Wu's study, Central Palace

Elementals stood in a line in the Emperor's study when he arrived with the Crown prince behind him, " Your Majesty," They bowed their heads, " Your Highness," followed by another courtesy to the Crown prince,

" At Ease," Jun Wu waved his hand as he walked past them. They stood up straight, " I want you four to visit Lord Ping with GuānYû, I want to make sure we are still allies with him, not that he would dare to ever defy us, but with Ghosts here, I don't want any chances," Jun Wu ordered leaning against his seat,

" When do we leave Your Majesty?" Fire Master asked, bowing his head,

" This afternoon, you'll be staying at their place until I receive a report of surveillance, I'll send a horse rider and that's your cue to leave," Jun Wu explained picking a few rolled papers,

" How many days at the maximum? Your Majesty," Earth Master questioned appearing bothered,

" Five maximum, three minimum," Emperor answered as GuānYû took the papers from his father's hand,

" We have to investigate their place as well?" Earth Master inquired curiously,

" If possible do it, other then that he'll take you lot to a mountain forest, that's where you'll be needed, some disturbances have been occurring in those mountains," Jun Wu sat in his seat as GuānYû handed a bunch of papers to each elemental, " Lord Ping has requested me to send some officials to investigate, I want you to solve that issue, threaten Lord Ping politely," Emperor gave a firm glance at Water Master who looked away, "And remind him where his benefit lies, GuānYû is going as royal ambassador, for official purposes," he added offhandedly,

" Understood Your Majesty," Wind Master said with a smile,

" Fire Master, Wind Master," Jun Wu gave a hopeful look to the both of them, "Handle the talking part and Earth Master," Shù Zìrán sighed, "Don't start the conversation with interrogation and correcting them on their speech," she nodded her head, " Water Master," Jun Wu spoke sweetly ShuîYuê gulped, "You in any condition no matter what, do not go around memorising Lord Ping's place's entries and exists, definitely not the one through rivers, you can breathe underwater others can't," Water Master opened her mouth to defend herself, "And do not go around threatening his guards or flirting with the maids!" Emperor added with a glare,

" GuānYû," Jun Wu called Crown prince turned around and finished handing out the papers to the elementals, "Take care of everything else, you are responsible for all of them," Crown prince bowed his head, Jun Wu stood up from his seat,
" That's all, go pack your things and be at the Central Palace gates in two hours, you'll take a distance shortening array and then a carriage," he came to a halt beside Water Master and turned his head towards her, "Keep your friends from trouble, you are responsible if they get injured, and help GuānYû with the negotiations if needed, I am counting on you Water Master don't disappoint me," he added in a whisper before walking away,
