“Oh. It seems this Prince was mistaken. I must blame the fact that I spend all year-round living on the island or at sea, causing me to be unaware of the current political situation. This had led me to believe I was signing the treaty with Xi Lei. He Di yawned languidly as he playfully embraced the beauty at his side. His indifferent tone made his next few words sound like an understatement. “Now that I have been updated on the situation, then it means half of the profit from the dual luminous sand is not for Xi Lei, but rather for the Xiao Family, right?”

Kong Liu understood his point and replied, “Yes, young Lord.”

Dan Lin’s royalty unexpectedly took the initiative to help Feng Ming block the obstacle he faced, surprising everyone.

The treaty was the crux of the issue Su Jin Chao had placed on Feng Ming, but it had been blocked by Dan Lin’s rogue prince. This sudden turn of events caused Su Jin Chao to freeze, not knowing how to continue.

Hao Yuan Jiang let out a relieved sigh, secretly thanking Xi Lei’s deity for sending the charming Prince of Dan Lin. He made use of the opportunity to quickly warn Su Jin Chao to shut up. His old face mustered up a slight smile as he said, “Assistant Su might as well sit down now, after all, this is Tong’s banquet. We have yet to even hear royal Uncle Qin Zhang and Crown Prince Qing Li’s speeches.”

“Stand still.” Feng Ming suddenly commanded.

Su Jin Chao froze and fastened his gaze on him. “Yes? Does Xiao Family’s young Lord have something to say?”

“Yes.” Feng Ming’s hair fell behind him, engraving his beautiful and elegant visage in everyone’s mind.

Everyone. Tong’s royal family, nobles, Dan Lin’s He Di, Xi Lei’s representatives, Princess Zhang Liu, and even the attendants and maids…

They all clearly heard the calm and unhurried voice that contained no anger or arrogance. His voice was not domineering, nor was it haughty. It only possessed the tender power of a man.

Feng Ming’s words were clear and graceful. “I rarely receive such a terrible answer as the one the assistant ambassador has given me. Just now, Assistant Su stated that because Rong Tian created the Grace Order, he had betrayed Xi Lei and therefore is not qualified to rule. However, in what way is Rong Tian’s Grace Order a representation of his betrayal?”

Within the Tong Kingdom’s magnificent palace, in front of its most influential figures, Feng Ming had finally began his aggressive counterattack against Xi Lei’s representative.

This was also the first time in his entire existence that Feng Ming’s life had been targeted, but yet had not forced him to feel helpless. It was definitely not because he was being forced to protect himself while clashing with an enemy directly.

Getting captured by Ruo Yan led to the battle on the Aman River. Getting captured by Lu Dan led to Dong Fan and its palace being bathed in blood. He Di’s late night sneak attack led him to have no choice but to lead his men in killing their enemy. All these repetitive actions had been forced upon him in order to survive.

For the first time, he could escape from that pattern and take initiative in attacking first.

For him to throw himself into the whirlpool of politics once again.

It was for Rong Tian and for himself.

“In the end, how has Rong Tian’s Grace Order betrayed Xi Lei? Such a concept, I wish for someone to enlighten this young Lord, a trivial businessman’s son. Seeing that there are so many royals and nobles in attendance, Assistant Su, I humbly request for your teachings.”

A smile that could move any person, like a drop of dew shining in the early morning sun, appeared on Feng Ming’s face.

His confident smile caused some of the attendants to feel admiration.

But, behind his blinding smile, an intense heat burned inside. He had the urge to hug his knees and cry.

He had no idea how to manage the intense feeling.

He felt this feeling coursing through his veins when he was in Yue Zhong, working his brain to answer all the questions about other countries he was quizzed on.

He felt this intense feeling while making a painstaking effort to temper himself.

He secretly went through those painstaking efforts in order to prevail over the dangers he would face on his journey across all the kingdoms.

At the moment he was challenged by Su Jin Chao, he finally felt a profound feeling for the first time, as if he was in the same state of mind as Rong Tian while in battle. There were really no words to describe such a feeling.

He finally understood what Rong Tian had said… he understood the meaning of “The Love of a King.”
