Jing's Adventure

Jing

Early morning. The dew was still lingering on the grass and on the leaves. The ray of sun hit the crystal droplets and made them glittering magnificently.

Mu Yue, while admiring the beauty of the nature which he could rarely see due to his job, was on his way to attend the morning court when suddenly a white shadow brushed pass him in a very swift movement.

Mu Yue was a trained martial artist, so, even in that kind of speed, he still could clearly see the white shadow's feature.

It was none other than His Majesty the Emperor, Emperor Jing Zong.

He didn't even have enough time to think why Jing was literally flying in a rush when Lu Cang suddenly called out to him.

"General Mu, did you see Jing? I mean, His Majesty?"

Huh?!

Why is Lu Cang the one who do the chasing? Isn't it Jing who usually do the chasing?

Lu Cang's face was showing no indication that they were playing a tag game. Worry and anxious were clearly shown on that prideful face.

Moreover, the urgent tone he used when he asked.

Wordlessly Mu Yue pointed at the direction Jing headed off to.

"Thank you General Mu." Without wasting any second on light chat, Lu Cang flew to the direction that Mu Yue pointed at like a flash of light.

After a few good seconds, Mu Yue came around from his stunned condition and gave chase to the Imperial couple. The court was not more important than the Emperor himself.

Ding Peng, as the Commander of the Imperial guards as well as the personal bodyguard of the Emperor, walked in his surely and steady steps to check on his subordinates when he faintly saw from the corner of his eyes a white shadow flew in a speed of light, then not long after, a gray shadow was following behind him.

For ordinary people who didn't learn about martial arts, they might be shocked and thought they had seen 'things'. However, Ding Peng had been a famous martial artist student since his early ages. It was a given for him to see that the white shadow was his master, the Emperor, while the gray shadow was his so called male lover, Lu Cang.

It is the time for His Majesty to attend to the morning court, what is he doing here with his lover? Are they up to some troublesome things again?

When he was about to ignore them --- he was so used to see His Majesty's bizarre behavior after all, he saw another shadow who chased after the couple.

'General Mu? Why is he involved too?'

Mu Yue would never want to be involved if there was nothing serious. Is that mean.....

Before Ding Peng could gather up his Qi to unfold his flying kungfu, Xiao GuiZi grabbed him from behind.

Xiao GuiZi was panting so hard and he was almost crying.

"Co... Commander Ding... Do.. Do you... Do you know where His Majesty has run off to again?"

"What do you mean?"

Xiao GuiZi tried hard to stabilize his breathing. "This morning, as usual, I went to His Majesty's chamber to help him with his morning routine, but he wasn't there, so I rushed to the Marquis residence. However, His Majesty and Lord Lu both had disappeared. Even Xiao Sang didn't have any idea when or where his master had gone to. He said last night Lord Lu and His Majesty made a loud 'Bang bang' noise." Almost sobbing, Xiao GuiZi's voice was thick with his worried tone.
