Xing listened to what the commotion might be about and she could hear that some of their soldiers has caught a woman who tried to sneak in.

It should be his wife, Xing concluded. What did he call her again...? Yun ... Yunxi..? Right... Su Yunxi!

Xing stood up and Prince Kang who realised his wife is caught, tried to stand up, "Dumb bird!" he muttered.

He has specifically asked her to stay hidden where he asked her to, until he returned. Guess she cannot sit still as always!

Xing caught what he said and it gave a smile in her lips remembering how Chenglei called her dumb too.

Stupid men! His wife probably got worried that her husband is caught and tried to help and here he is... Calling her dumb for that! Ingrates!

" Don't move. I'll snap your neck! ", Xing advised him and got to the entrance of the tent when she could smell a mixture of poisons.

"Don't get near her!", the Emperor's voice was heard as he prompted the soldiers to get back and Xing saw a beautiful short girl with dark black hair with a vial in her hand in a defensive posture. She exuded beauty, poise and strength... A rare combination Xing has seen together in a woman as she stood fearless in front of the soldiers.

As Xing was watching, the soldiers fell on the ground one by one.

She did not Poison my soldiers! Xing got furious. She had heard that there were many Poison weapons in the fire Kingdom but she never have seen it up close.

What a dangerous woman! No wonder that guy brought her with him to the battlefield!

" Su Yunxi! Give them the antidote or your husband will die!", Xing shouted, not in the mood to get impressed by her skills and the sudden authoritative command startled Su Yunxi.

"There is no antidote", she spoke in a calm tone as a docile woman as she turned to look at Xing as if she was not the one who just moments ago attacked ten soldiers. She raised her eyebrows realising who Xing is and immediately bowed, "Your highness!".

"No antidote?", Xing gritted her teeth.

"She never kills! They are sleeping and need no antidote!", Prince Kang spoke in a hurried tone to support his wife, fearing Xing would hurt her. He really was exasperated with everything happening around but still held an imposing aura around him.

"Being her in, Kouki", Xing told the Emperor who tried to grab her by the arm but Su Yunxi moved aside, "I'll walk by myself....", she spoke with a little disdain shrugging her arms and looked at the man behind her.

"YOUR MAJESTY!", she screamed suddenly realising the man she spoke to in a condescending tone is the Emperor of the Wind Kingdom as apparent from the dragon robes and the big dragon coronet he was doning.

She bowed in reverence and gave an elegant smile to top it off. Even though she realised she had screwed up big time, she wasn't too subservient and she looked extremely calm under such a stressful situation.


Wow! What a day! Xing thought. And what an intriguing woman! Now who is she reminding me of?

As soon as she entered the tent, she ran to her husband and eyed him from top to bottom to see if he is fine and only when she saw him unhurt did she sigh in relief.

Prince Kang seemed to be just staring at her but Xing noticed him scanning her and she could see the relief in his eyes seeing her safe.

Geez! Aren't they married? What's with this act? Xing wondered. The Emperor who was standing by her side, was shocked to see a man in her tent.

Who is he?

"Let us leave, or else...", Su Yunxi's hands were slightly trembling as she held a vial in her hand she got from her sleeves and Xing could smell a poison in the air and she instinctively looked at the Emperor,

"I can handle this poison", he said calmly and took a seat.

Prince Kang held his wife's hands and shook his head signalling not to do anything and Xing could see her blushing just by this interaction. He then continued to apologise to the Emperor for his wife.

Eh! Aren't they married? She looks like she is about nineteen... So wouldn't they be married for at least three years? What's with her blushing like thirteen year old seeing her crush?

Xing as usual worried about the most important thing according to her forgetting the fact that she is trying to poison them and went on about preparing tea when the men introduced themselves. Xing wanted to have a good long talk with her 'supposed brother' who had come here to look for her.

"I will not let my kingdom lose a single piece of land", she said with her gaze sharp at Prince Kang.

"I know!", he replied curtly. He has no intention of capturing the wind kingdom.

"Why did you come here then?", Xing asked irritated by his curtness.

"Orders", he sipped the tea she served and he raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at her, "Good!", he said raising his cup and then immersed in drinking tea.

Xing's temper rose with his attitude and she forgot she should maintain the decorum of an Empress.

"What's with the ships you've sent to the Water Kingdom then?"

"Oh that? Distraction", he continued sipping the tea. His wife by his side didn't find his attitude odd as if it was natural.

"Distraction?", Xing was confused. She thought they wanted to attack the Water kingdom.

" For me to kill your Emperor!", he added calmly and he signalled his wife, who refilled his cup.

"You bastard! How dare you? ", Xing stood up pointing the divine sword at him and the Emperor felt the the temperature dropping in the tent.

"Cussing? How uncouth!", Prince Kang snorted all the while sipping the tea.

Xing knew he must be well trained in martial arts by his demeanour but his attitude made her red with anger.

"I'll f*cking cuss all I want, you scoundrel! So much coming from a man who peeks at ..."

"I did not!", he interjected immediately placing the teacup down. It seemed like he didn't want his wife to know.

"You did and you don't even have the basic courtesy of apologising! So much for me being uncouth, you blackguard!", Xing didn't back down.

"Apologise? For what? I did nothing wrong, you... You... little fool!", he stood up and shoved the sword aside.

Su Yunxi had her mouth opened wide to see her husband acting like a boy fighting in a playground and was surprised. As long as she had known him he was always the cold and calculative person who never showed his thoughts in his facial expression or spoke one extra word and here he is... acting like a little boy with another woman!

The Emperor for a moment thought it was Rijun here with Mingxia bantering like this... He casually sipped his tea.

Su Yunxi's thoughts were interrupted by Xing's shouts as she was pointing at her "Su Yunxi! Don't trust your husband! He is a pervert! He sneaked up to..."

" You liar! ", Prince Kang got up from his seat and got to Xing in a lightning speed and closed her mouth with his hand with his other hand holding the back of her head tightly sealing her mouth. He has lost all his rationality with his sole interest being to keep this irrational woman from telling his wife wrong things about him.

Xing wasn't someone who would back down with that and she held his hand with her hands and slightly pulled it away and bit his hand hard.

"Ah!", he screamed as it hurt a lot., "Were you a dog in your previous life? Why are you biting me this hard?", he shook his hand with his face contorted in pain and seeing Xing smirk, kindled his anger further and he raised his hands to hit her.

"Oh, bring it on!", Xing got ready to tackle him.

"Dear!", Su Yunxi shouted at the top of her voice. Is her husband actually trying to hit a woman? That too an Empress, while in their land? Her husband, who always has a stone face and never looked at a woman even his wife his whole life? And did the Empress of the Wind Kingdom just bit her husband? What is going on? She was dumbfounded.

"Mingxia!" the Emperor uttered with a sigh wondering why is he getting stuck with these kind of people. One is a Prince and another is a supposed Empress and why are they acting like five year olds?

"Huh!", Prince Kang snorted and wiped the saliva in his hands on Xing's clothes and she pushed him away, "Su Yunxi, I'll have to go and scrub my hands and my entire body with good soap and take good medicines... I've been bit by a rabid dog", he said with a pout and went to his wife's side and she calmed down immediately looking at her husband acting coy with her.

"Yeah stinker! Do that! Scrub your eyes and mouth with acid while at it... Let's see if that'll make you..."

"MINGXIA!", the Emperor shouted interrupting Xing, "WHAT?", she shouted back.

The Emperor wondered why he is the only sane and rational being in the entire universe.

"Go and check out the army rations", the Emperor pointed the exit at Xing and Xing wasn't pleased.

"No", she crossed her arms and looked at the Emperor with her nose pointing up, "I'm not leaving you alone with the one who said he's here to kill you!"

"I can take care of myself!", the Emperor tried to reason with her while glaring at Prince Kang who had a sneer in his face. He looked like the kid who escaped punishment from their parent while his sibling is getting punished.

"Mingxia..... Check up on Seiren", he repeated this time in a more gentle tone. He knows being headstrong with her will only bring negative results.

"Fine!", Xing complied with his request. She wanted to know how Seiren and Maya are doing.

Xing then whispered to the Emperor, "He is my supposed brother! He is also a Lu from the Royal family of the fire Kingdom.... You remember what the fate scroll said, right? Be careful with him. I'll leave Bai Li with you"

After saying this, she turned to leave but she was pissed to see Prince Kang calmly sipping the tea she made and her blood boiled with rage.

How dare he chase me away from my own tent!

" I'll be taking your wife for the night!", Xing said linking her arms with the unassuming Su Yunxi and pulled her with her.

Prince Kang had a fleeting darkness in his eyes as noted by Xing.

"Should I tell her...", Xing raised her eyebrows and gave a fake grin. The Emperor rubbed his temples with his fingers...

Seriously, this woman! Can't she talk like a normal human being if not like an Empress!

"Can't you phrase it better?", Prince Kang grumbled. Why is she saying as if she is stealing my wife?

"Okay!", Xing stood with her back straight, "Your wife will entertain me for the night!", she smirked.

How is that for better phrasing, you idiot?

She then pulled Su Yunxi along and got out of the tent with Su Yunxi looking back at her husband with a "Save--me" expression.

Prince Kang nodded at her and only then she took a deep breath and followed Xing.

The moment both women left the tent, the men took a deep breath and with both of them exuding regal elegance prepared to open dialogue about the actual reason they wanted to be alone.
