[Dear lord Xing Yi. We decided to publish another of your works as a continuation of the legend novel black and white star. If you have written the third series, you can send it right away, but if you haven't, we are willing to wait for your reply. We will wait for the good news. Thanks.]
[Greetings, head of the Li imperial Literature Bureau.
Mo Hua.]
Chunying was silent. I don't know how much time has passed. Chunyin seemed to be cultivating at the spirit level so that her soul seemed not to be in her body.
"Your Majesty ... "
"Your Majesty ... "
"Your Maj-"
"Impossible!"
Wenhua was taken aback as he tried to resuscitate Chunyin.
"Impossible ... impossible" Chunyin kept muttering with he face completely sculpted now. The skin on his face tightened and made an expression that was hard to explain. Surprised, gloomy, and happy at the same time. His current expression was quite sinister as the corners of his lips pulled into a smile that looked like a devil had just awakened. Not only that. He also highlighted sharply the intended name of the letter which consists of two characters with the meaning 'one' and 'star'.
"Your Majesty. Do you have a problem?" Wenhua looked confused and worried. For the first time. Wenhua, who was usually calm, looked like an idiot at the moment.
"I remember. I remember now!" Chunyin was still muttering. He didn't even care who he was or who was around him now.
Without answering Wenhua's question. Chunyin moved away from the leisurely activities of her Guqin game even though it didn't relax Chunyin at all because he still had to keep turning his head. One should be able to calm one's mind while playing the guqin, but Chunyin seemed the opposite. It's impossible for playing the guqin to cause someone to go crazy instantly right?.
Chunyin seemed to think hard and fast before finally getting up from her seat. He walked into his study and rummaged through a few shelves.
"Xing Yi"
"No wonder I've always felt familiar with the pen name I used when writing the novel True Love from the Heart"
"Turns out that's his name"
"Xing Yi is this bastard's pen name!"
Chunyin flashed his memories back to his old life when he was emperor Feng.
In particular. Every week, Emperor Feng always went to the center of the Imperial Literature Bureau. Of course he did not go as an emperor. He always disguised himself in order to mingle and was able to freely visit the Imperial National Library to view literary works that came from outside the empire. At that time he was very fortunate because the exchange of literary works was taking place so that there were many new works filling the collections of the imperial national library.
He walked through the shelves of the latest category of works. In the first place he saw a book with a black and white cover. The writing of the title character is coated in gold and silver.
"The legend of the black and white star," he muttered. He also read a fairly large writing beside it. It said 'Popular literature in the Eastern continent'.
"Hm. So this is the novel that scholars have been talking about recently?. Looks like I should read it too and … maybe Xiang-er will like it too."
At that time. After knowing his Xiang-er was fond of reading. Chunyin - used to give Xiang Lian lots of books. And because of that, the great demon emperor Feng became fond of trying to write literature even harder than usual. His activities from a reader turned into a writer. And Xiang Lian was the first to read his works.
"Your Majesty, this work of Xing Yi is really good!"
"Really?, do you like it?"
"Of course. It is an honor for me to be able to read such a fine work. Thank you, Your Majesty."
"I hope this novel will be another series" Xiang Lian muttered. Meanwhile the emperor just smiled. He was happy to see the figure of the woman he loved with such a happy face just because of a book.
"I'll find out about the next series if you like it that much"
"Really? Thank you very much, Your Majesty!"
Since then, I started to find out about the literary work and about the identity of the author. But who would have thought that the author would be Li Xi from the Li empire?!. Chunyin thought with emotion as he recalled it. He suddenly hated what he had done. He really didn't like it when Xiang Lian, his Xiang-er smiled because of the writings of that bastard Li Xi. But on the other hand, he also couldn't get rid of Li Xi's masterpiece. However. Her Xiang-er smile was something he couldn't just erase.
Chunyin smiled again. Emperor Feng's demonic side still seems to be running in his blood.
"In that case, this time I will write the continuation of the third series of black and white star legends for Xiang-er"
Therefore. The pen name Xing Yi became the identity of two people at once, namely Emperor Feng and Emperor Li Xi.
"But ... what's the story about?, I don't remember. Even though I used to repeat the novel many times before" Chunyin muttered reluctantly. He remembers his past. Although he doesn't want to admit it, in fact, in the past he did read the work more than any other literary work. He did not deny that he liked the work too. Of course because he did not know the identity of the original author at that time.
Chunyin looked pensive for a moment. He stared at the two black and white star legend novels that were kept as private files. "Should I reread all these books?" Chunyin muttered. Of course he still felt annoyed when he looked at the books. Especially when considering his Xiang-er. It felt like Li Xi had snatched away his Xiang-er smile.
Chunyin was still thinking about it and began to carelessly open the book. I don't know where he would start reading that story.
"If I'm not mistaken. The story is about a bridge and a clan guarding the bridge" Chunyin thought. Inevitably, he began to sink and reread the novel legend of the black and white star. Chunyin forgot for a moment her personal matters regarding Xiang-er or about the victims at the Jade Lake and Yue Lan Spring.

Meanwhile. Where An Jia Li is. She was declared to be seriously ill with a severe fever from walking deliriously about a book in the kitchen. Miss Liu pulled An Jia Li back to her room.
"Are you really sick?!"
"How can you scream in the kitchen about a book?!. So stupid ..." Miss Liu couldn't help but think. She started babbling again with a sharp barrage of words. However An Jia Li was used to getting slashed. So that kind of sharpness no longer affected him too much. She doesn't care about the number of scratches. She only cares about the brush strokes and ink in the book she is asking about.
"Miss Liu. You took care of the books-"
Miss Liu interrupted An Jia Li again, "I told you. I'll bring it to you later. Don't make me repeat myself. But I can't take it now. The snake concubine seems to be starving again. Can you hear?!" Obviously Miss Liu. She still remembered the dark traces on An Jia Li's wrists, so she also knew that the concubine who didn't like An Jia Li would still continue what she was doing. By looking at its nature. The snake will continue to feel hungry and want to hunt its prey, even if the prey is dead, it still wants to wrap around it and crush the bones of its prey to pieces.
"I don't know what the snake is planning. But after learning that the task of cleaning the library was an order from her. She must have been after Xiang Mei-mei" thought Miss Liu. Fortunately Miss Liu not only has a sharp tongue, but also with instinct. As a Head of Royal Servant, She must be able to see through even the darkest corners. She didn't want to see terrible things happen to the servants who were under her responsibility, let alone Xiang Lian, her sister who she had to protect as an older Sister.
"Miss Liu, I just wanted to ask a book-"
"All right. Stay here and close your mouth and eyes. I'll be back when I'm done with the kitchen!" In the end An Jia Li was never given a chance to utter all the words. Miss Liu always cut her off and had now even left An Jia Li in the room and forced her not to come out if her fever hadn't gone down.
But, An Jia Li was a stubborn figure. Shw will always do anything to achieve what her wants. No matter how difficult it is. She will try his best with full calculation of a mature plan. Even so, An Jia Li still often acts impulsively because she is driven by curiosity. And right now he didn't even think about what would happen if he sneaked back into the library to pick up Xing Yi's book. Right now, her head was only filled with searching for ways to get her out of she locked room by Miss Liu and how to bring the novel Legend of the Black & White Star into her room.
It was not only the name of the pen that made An Jia Li very curious, but also about the contents of the story in the novel which for some reason she felt he had read it, even though she did not remember at all if in the past she had often read the novel. She also always discusses the story with the person her loves.
An Jia Li still remembers the snippet of the story he read in the novel Legend of the Black and White Star in the second series entitled "The Star among the 3 Realms: crossing the broken bridge" muttered An Jia Li.
She began playing the role of a Narrator while reading a story "When the head of the Star clan falls. The bridge begins to crumble and crumble. The three realms experience a catastrophe. The balance becomes chaotic. That's when a book of Eternal Dew appears and elects a new Star Clan leader to prevent the Bridge from being destroyed. White," She continued.
"Good! The window is unlocked!" whispered An Jia Li cheerfully.
