To the Palace

Pei Hua's mood was very bad earlier because he lost in the top-five round. He was a little closer to winning, and because of one wrong move, he had to give up. But, looking at Hong's face now, that very beautiful smile, made all his bad feelings fade away, even disappeared now. He slowly reached into the sweets in the bowl in Hong's hands.

"Thank you, Brother Hong. This is delicious"

"I told you so, Brother, emm do you want to go to the park with me? They have very cute bunnies there, lot of them, you will like them"

That noon.

Pei Hua sees the golden carriage that brought Hong to depart from Sang Guan's residence. Not long after that, he saw an ugly carriage following them, as if he recognized two people in peasant clothes sitting on the carriage. Without a second thought, Pei Hua followed them.
