Meilin was sitting in his room contemplating was the heavens punishing him he can’t possibly no it’s not possible even do he most erase them possible but his lady is already suspicious of him should he come clean no he must get rid of it.
Meilin was sad he wouldn’t dare keep this child he was a slave and the general was of a noble clan how would it look if he took a slave as his wife and if his discovered to have eloped his lady would have to face the consequences of criticism and suspicion.
Meilin felt sad he was in a heartbreaking situation if his lady finds out he’ll strongly object which would be troublesome and make his heart waver.
Why did he elope with the general in the first place this will be so troublesome to his lady and to him but he couldn’t bring himself to regret their elopement.
One week later…….
“General you don’t look so well” the emperor said
“On contrary you looked at so very well” the general said bitterly
The emperor felt that his friend was cursing instead of complimenting.
“Aiya so how is your wooing going”
It was as if the emperor said something he shouldn’t have the general’s expression dropped 0° degree down it’s scary it felt like the general was strangling him with his eyes.
“Aiya Shen Weiyuan tell me did he turned you down”
The general turned the room now change to an heart breaking aura.
“He did?” The emperor said sympathetic
The general sighed not able to keep the truth from his friend who was worried about him.
“It would have been better if that was the case” the general said with eyes reflecting sadness
“Then what did he do?” The emperor asked
“Right now I’m tempted to go search for him but I’m patient I’ll wait for him he promised”
The emperor was puzzled.
‘What did that servant do?’
“Weiyuan please explain to me” he said politely
The general looked at him then clenched his fists and breathe.
“A month ago fairy deity and I eloped and he promised to marry but since then I have not seen him I’ve waited and waited but he has yet to come” Shen Weiyuan said shaking his head.
‘My good friend you have been scammed’
The emperor looked at his friend in pain could he watch him be like this no they were friends they fought years on the same battlefield together they’ve been through thick and thin it’s not his place to tell who the fairy deity is but he didn’t want his friend to suffer.
“Ah why don’t we visit Juan together” the emperor said
The general was visibly upset he was talking about a serious matter and he being away from his love and he is talking about visiting his love his friend was being insensitive.
“It’s not what you think the concubine is an good adviser maybe he can help trust me you must come I won’t do anything licie dovie” the emperor promises.
The general sighed reluctantly then agreed.
Juan was drinking tea enjoying music as he listens to his servant’s chatter.
“My concubine”
The servants immediately kowtow as they witness the emperor Meilin’s heart skip a beat when he witnessed the general why was he here did he find his identity.
“Your imperial majesty it seems you have guest”
“Yes it seems that we are in need of your expertise” the emperor smiled
Le Huan side glance Meilin who had a nervous expression with his eyes reflected panic Le Huan then looked at the looked at the general who looked very much miserable.
“You can sit I’ll listen”
Le Huan took a sip of his tea even though his outer appearance was calm and elegant his inner thoughts where.
‘What juicy gossip do you have for me now I’m all ears’
He placed down the tea then turned to Meilin.
“All can leave Meilin bring tea and snacks” Le Huan said
Meilin nods and gets up quickly the general was very observant on him but he said nothing and turned to Le Huan.
