Chapter 888 : "Banquet in the Palace (7)"
The pain permeated to every part of his body and fear overtook him.
The effects of the medicine should still be in effect and why was this happening now! ?
Jun Wu Xie stared coldly at Lei Fan who was writhing and howling on the ground incessantly, her eyes reflecting the cold light from the moon.
Although Lei Fan was trying his hardest to hide his face, Jun Wu Xie could however see it all clearly. The bones on Lei Fan's face was already beginning to shift and his looks was changing bit by bit!
Suddenly, a tall slender figure stepping on the moonlight walked into the Imperial Garden. "What is happening to the Fourth Prince? Guards! Carry the Fourth Prince back to the palace for treatment immediately!"
When Jun Wu Xie heard the voice, she lifted her head slowly, suddenly seeing the silver haired man she had spotted earlier outside the doors to the banquet. He was now standing just steps away and what puzzled her was that she had not noticed him approach.
The silver haired man smiled and nodded at Jun Wu Xie, and the guards outside the Imperial Garden rushed in when they heard the man's shout. They stared blankly at Lei Fan who was still howling continuously on the ground covering his face and they were unable to decide what to do at that moment.
"Lord Grand Adviser! What is happening to His Highness?" One of the guards asked nervously.
The Grand Adviser said calmly: "It might be the winter chill, and he has fallen ill. Hurry and carry him back to the Empress' Palace and have her get the Imperial Physicians to treat him."
The guards did not dare hesitate another moment longer. They lifted Lei Fan up and left immediately. As Lei Fan was being helped up, the excruciating pain was wrecking at his body so badly he was almost falling apart. But he still kept his hands covered tightly over his own face, not letting anyone see his current countenance in the slightest.
As he was being carried away, the eyes that Lei Fan hid behind his hands stared viciously at Jun Xie.
[He has seen it!]
[He must have seen it!]
After Lei Fan was carried off, the Grand Adviser gave a sigh and turned to say to the calm and composed Jun Wu Xie standing on one side: "The frost is chilly so late at night. It is not advisable for Young Master Jun to go out."
Jun Wu Xie was measuring the silver haired man standing before her. From the way the guard had addressed him, she had known his identity. The Grand Adviser of the Yan Country, Wen Yu.
Also a highly attractive looking man who was known as the most beautiful man in the Yan Country.
Jun Wu Xie was used to seeing Jun Wu Yao's unparalleled flawless looks, but it must still be said that Wen Yu's countenance was not one that normal people can compare to, being just a notch slightly less good looking than Jun Wu Yao.
"Towards an invitation from the Emperor, how can a lowly one like me reject it?" Jun Wu Xie replied softly. At this moment, Wen Yu should already be at the banquet. So why had he suddenly appeared here? An at such an opportune time!
"That's true." Wen Yu said, laughing lightly. His gaze swept over at Jun Xie gently, but when he saw the ring on Jun Xie's finger, a sliver of shock showed on his face.
"The Grand Adviser seems to be highly interested in this ring of mine?" Jun Wu Xie did not miss the strange look that passed fleetingly over Wen Yu's face, and she was rather intrigued by the reaction. The Emperor had been highly concerned with the same ring and now that Wen Yu had seen the ring, he had reacted in a similar fashion.
Wen Yu suppressed the shock that was showing in his eyes and lifted his head to look at Jun Xie to say: "Since Young Master Jun is not interested in the banquet in the palace, you should go back early. The Spirit Battle Tournament has ended and it is time for the people from all the various academies to be leaving the Imperial Capital. I would think that Young Master Jun has been apart from your family for quite a long period and returning back earlier will allow you to reunite with your family as well."
Wen Yu's words were not entirely clear, but beneath those words, he was asking Jun Xie to hurry up and leave!
This was the first time that Jun Wu Xie had met Wen Yu and they had not interacted with each other before this. Why would Wen Yu suddenly say those words to her?

Chapter 889 : "Banquet in the Palace (8)"
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes slightly. Wen Yu's strange and peculiar actions seemed to have only begun after he saw the ring on her hand.
One was the emperor, the other the Grand Adviser, both seemingly highly concerned with the ring she was wearing.
But one thing Jun Wu Xie could be certain about was that Wen Yu harboured no enmity against her.
"Why would the Grand Adviser say this?" Jun Wu Xie could feel that Wen Yu seemed to be hinting at something but at that moment, she couldn't think of a reason why.
Wen Yu looked at Jun Wu Xie's delicate little face. He had not wanted to get involved in the matter but as the kid was rather close to Lei Chen, and he found that he liked that pair of highly intelligent eyes, albeit a little cold and distant, but didn't look like they belonged to one who would conceal malice against people.
"Why? Doesn't Young Master Jun want to reunite with his family sooner?"
Jun Wu Xie's eyes darkened at that moment.
[Reunite with family?]
[Why would she not wish for that? Everything that she was doing was towards being able to rid herself of remaining in that passive state, to return to the Qi Kingdom without worry, and back to the Lin Palace.]
Wen Yu detected the dimming in Jun Xie's eyes and he realised that he might have said something wrong where he immediately said: "I apologise, I have said something that I shouldn't have. But from what I heard, in the period that Young Master Jun had been here in the Imperial Capital for the Spirit Battle Tournament, you seemed to have attracted quite a bit of trouble onto yourself. It looks like the Imperial Capital is not a suitable place for Young Master Jun to remain in and to avoid having any more unpleasant things happening to you here, it might be better for you if Young Master Jun leaves here earlier."
"More unpleasant things? What kind of things would they be?" Jun Wu Xie asked, looking straight at Wen Yu, trying to find more clues from the expression on his face, but Wen Yu was however not exhibiting anything peculiar on his face.
Wen Yu laughed lightly. "I wish for Young Master Jun to set off on his return journey soon and as it is getting really late. If we do not make our way back now the banquet would be ending soon. Would Young Master Jun like to return back to the banquet with me?"
Jun Wu Xie nodded and the two of them walked off to go back to the banquet.
Everything was as it should be back at the banquet. The music was playing and the dancers put up a splendid performance with their graceful moves and lithe nimble bodies.
Jun Wu Xie walked into the palace main hall together with Wen Yu and the Emperor who was looking like he was thinking hard with a deep frown on his face lifted his head when he saw the two figures coming into the hall and his heart nearly jumped out of him!
"Your Majesty." Wen Yu greeted, bowing slightly.
The Emperor's face suddenly stiffened but he quickly recomposed himself and put on his usual benign smile and said: "I was thinking where the Grand Adviser had gone to and here he is coming back here with Jun Xie. But where is Little Fan? Little Fan had left here with Jun Xie for a stroll in the Imperial Garden so why had Jun Xie come back here alone?"
Wen Yu replied: "Your loyal subject saw that the moon was really nice tonight and suddenly had the urge to go take a walk in the Imperial Garden. But when I got to the Imperial Garden, I happened to see the Fourth Prince feeling unwell and was lying on the ground, so I instructed the guards to send him back while I escorted Jun Xie back here to the banquet. Your loyal subject was worried that the boy might not know his way back and hence I came here together with him."
Upon hearing that Lei Fan was not feeling well, the Emperor's face was immediately tinged with worry as he asked: "Little Fan is unwell? What happened?"
"Your loyal subject does not know, but your loyal subject has ordered the guards to send the Fourth Prince back to the Empress' Palace and as the Empress' Palace has the Imperial Physicians who have cared for the Fourth Prince since he was young there, I believe there won't be much of a problem with His Highness." Wen Wu replied.
Even with Wen Yu's assuring words, the Emperor who was highly concerned about Lei Fan's health was seen to be rather fidgety.
"The night is getting rather late, and all our esteemed guests can go back earlier to get some rest." The Emperor suddenly tensed up and he issued a gentle eviction order.
All the guests did not say anything and they all got up to leave.
Lei Chen escorted Jun Wu Xie and the others out of the Imperial Palace and as stood outside the palace gates, his eyes stared after the horse carriages of the Zephyr Academy.
