Shen Rui was determined to go back to the Meng Kingdom to seize the throne that was rightfully his. The Hong King took a few days to contemplate Shen Rui's request before he agreed and summoned Long Zhao Feng and Xiao Yue to the palace.
"I only want to emphasize one thing," he said while leaning forward on his throne. "Although this mission is done to aid Prince Shen Rui to take control over his kingdom, this by no means meant that the two of you have become people of the Meng Kingdom. I request detailed, daily reports of everything that happens from the day you set off from the border."
The King's eyes wandered over to Xiao Yue.
"I have learned to respect Miss Xiao Yue's abilities in three instances now, and I am wondering whether Miss Xiao Yue is a person of Hong Kingdom or is she a free agent?"
When the last words left the King's lips, he shot a glance at Long Zhao Feng.
