31. Scheme

Among the nine ministers, only three were the only loyal to the Emperor, and that is the minister of education, Zhang Wei, minister of coachmen Wei Chun Fai, and the chief censor Chen Guang. Chen Guang was known for his manipulative mind, tricky as an old fox. He was also a good gossiper, but also a well-hidden spy. Because of his meek and harmless behavior, one could doubtlessly tell that the man was a kung fu master. Zhang Wei as what the people would've guessed, was an upright gentleman and was considered a sunny personality. But this gentleman was not the one you could afford to mess with.

Amidst the powerful families in the Qin era apart from the Emperor's family, the clan of Zhang was known as the third most powerful families after the Feng Clan.

Wei Chun Fai was neutral, he never took any sides. As long as where the powerful side upheld, then Chun Fai undoubtedly stood there. And now that his son Wei Haoxuan became the first male Empress in the state of Qin, it's normal that he would take sides with his son. Wei clan was the fourth most powerful family among the powerful families in the Qin era.

Although he was considered loyal, the Emperor still wary because of this. Just because he was his father in-law, he would trust him completely. Although Chen Guang was considered tricky, at least he took the side wholeheartedly, and considered loyal. However, Chun Fai never took any sides. The Emperor never know what is going on inside his head either. But, he knows that he valued his son a lot. He can't make him unhappy.

And besides, Chun Fai didn't really like Liu Ming.

And as what they've plan, Chen Guang played a role as Liu Ming's trusted acquaintance. Now, the corrupted officials gathered on Liu Ming's house to make their nasty plan.

In the round table of mahogany, seven ministers gathered around the table and arguing their opinions, their plans, as well as the Emperor's fall. Chen Guang was casually sipping his tea and listened to all of their blabbering.

"You all know that the treasures hidden in the basement comes from the palace, and it should be placed in the palace! Do you even realized that the Emperor might have suspected us?" The minister of herald, Rong Qi said.

"Of course! Everyone here knows that the General kept busying himself towards the border. If the Emperor didn't found out then he is not called an Emperor!" The Minister of finance, Hui Tang said.

"Good for you, you have a brain." Chen Guang said as he sneered at them. Liu Ming believed that Chen Guang would be a good use to him since he assumed that Chen Guang will rebel against the Emperor. Unfortunately for him, he was not a mind reader.

Everyone looked at Chen Guang who was minding his own business. They looked at him disdainfully and snorted coldly. What will a mere Chen would possibly do in this kind of situation? Well, they also looked down on him since Chen Guang was at the lowest powerful families in the Qin if he hadn't married the noble lady of Wei, Wei Haoxuan's cousin.

"Then, do you have something in mind?" The minister of ceremonies had said, looking at him as if he was a stain in someone's clothes.

"If you have a brain, you should have realized earlier that all your plans have been exposed by His Majesty. Who would plan such childish way to get all the riches that should be in the palace? If I were you I will only use the subjects to get on my side and strengthen my knife. Then the remaining problem should be easy, am I right?" Chen Guang explained, and the whole room quieted. The ministers processed what Chen Guang had said, their eyes glimmered at Chen Guang's idea.

Chen Guang inwardly snickered, looks like they were all airheads. Chen Guang looked at Liu Ming and smiled faintly.

"Minister Liu, what do you think?" Judging from Liu Ming's attitude, he will surely agree with the idea. Because, he was desperate when it comes to power and reputation. His house may seemed a bit dithery lately. After the gory scenario happened on his daughter's window, his beloved daughter looked like she developed some kind of mental sickness. She was hiding in her room all the time, refused to go outside.

Who told her to anger the cute little cat? And made all of her servants' heads turned into decorative ornaments on her window.

No matter how they figured out that nasty situation, they still couldn't afford to offend the General's family.

This made Liu Ming so furious that all of his hair fall out.

"This is a good idea. Then, let's try this." Liu Ming said, agreeing Chen Guang's predicament.

Once the head agrees, the bodies follow. But as long as you're dumb, you'll fall to the pit miserably. Just like the leader of ants, if the leader ant crashed, the following ants jittered.

But what if they're just puppets? If one is the leader, then the mother ant was powerful. One word of the mother ant, and the leader will follow. As the leader moves, so was the followers. One could tell that the mastermind still win.

He snickered, sipping his tea.

Chen Guang succeeded his plan.

On the Feng manor, after Delun soothed his wife's swarming emotions, he took a breath, relieved seeing Li Jie relaxed. Ir has been an hour since he stopped crying. Tired, he closed his eyes subconsciously and fell asleep in Delun's shoulder, hands circling around Delun's waist.

Delun nearly smashed the table knowing that someone had bullied his wife.

But, his wife just sniffled quietly and told him that he was okay. Delun was distressed.

He carefully laid down his wife on the bed and wiped his face with a clean cloth. His wife's forehead soaked with sweat. His beautiful face flushed deep shades of pink. His eyebrows furrowed and knitted. Delun lifted his index finger and massaged his wrinkled eyebrows. Li Jie no longer wrinkling his forehead and slept peacefully.

However, something deep down had been awakened as he stared at Li Jie's face.

The untamed little beast have awakened its desire. It was roaring silently, MUST! ENTER! THE! DUNGEON!

The little beast was beyond ready to engage in battle, but he couldn't enter the dungeon yet making Delun aggrieved. How could he enter if his wife didn't allow him yet? All he could do is endure until his wife openly declared his consent.

Sighs... Life was hard. As hard as counting hair on someone's bald head.

Delun took a deep breath and exhaled. One could tell that the almighty General suffered from the untamed little beast that have awakened its power.

Too strong... Too painful... Too... Hard...

Delun bit his lower lip as he gazed his wife's face deeply drowned in slumber. He closed his eyes and forced to swallow the hardness inside him. And yet, it really was too painful!

He shook his head helplessly. He pecked his wife's forehead and hurried himself to the bathroom. He really need a cold bath.

After he calmed himself, he went to the bed and laid beside his wife. He went inside the blanket and hugged Li Jie in the back. Li Jie might not know, but his night beside Delun was peaceful. A tranquil feeling seeped through the two as they slept and cuddling all night.

Li Jie woke up fresh and contented. He didn't have a nightmare showing up at night. He he squinted his eyes and smiled with ease as he felt the other person's hand on his waist.

Li Jie shifted his body to his side and watched Delun's sleeping face. He may not believe it, but he felt tranquil as he palpated Delun's presence. It was as if the man itself was like a brand of catnip, a calming scent of perfume, a lulling song whispered deep in his heart. Li Jie felt comfortable and nuzzled into Delun's embrace.

From here on out, Li Jie's heart raced 200 km/h. The kangaroos on his heart leaped hectically. His cheeks shone deep blush of red, as if it was painted by stains of strawberry.

Li Jie doesn't what he felt and was deeply entranced as he stared Delun's face.

'Why isn't he up yet? He doesn't have work today? He must be tired. He usually gets up earlier than me.'

The truth is, Delun woke up ahead of him. However, he pretended to sleep and see what his wife will do when he was unconscious.

Li Jie, who was perfectly tricked by the wolf, lifted his hand and caressed Delun's face. Delun stunned as he felt Li Jie's hand brushed through his cheeks. His heart quivered and shaking violently, as if it was quaking inside.

Li Jie was deeply confused. The uneasiness deep in his heart grew day by day as he saw his husband smiling at him. It was like he was his machine gun called Pancake, and his AK47 called Meat Bun. Whenever he sees him, he felt happy and satisfied inside.

But, thinking that he had someone by his side felt like he was about to throw nuclear bomb to that person.

And this thought made him surprised.

Delun slowly opened his closed eyelids and stared at his wife. Li Jie's palms still on Delun's cheeks which made his face reddened even more than before.

"You..." Delun giggled, seeing his wife's wrinkled face glaring at him. Li Jie quickly retracted his hand and was about to run when Delun pressed him to the bed.

"And where do you think you're going?" Delun's low and magnetic voice sounded Li Jie's ear, as if screaming to answer this man. The voice was sexy, and Li Jie didn't deny it.

"Get off me." Li Jie said, as if he was a kitten showing his claws at the enemy while the domineering lion licked his lips and was about to eat him.

"I will not." This time, Delun emphasized every word with hotness alluring.

"Do you want me to kick you early in the morning?" Li Jie raised his brow and glared at the wolf. However, Delun was bit afraid of the kitten beneath him and showed off his sly smile.

"Really? You will kick me?"

"Yeah, and you know what? I'll kick you now!" Li Jie exclaimed and raised his right foot violently. But, a certain wolf caught his foot and opened his legs wide.

"What are you... Let me go!" Delun smiled slyly looked at Li Jie's groin. He was so embarrassed that he wanted to kill the wolf that eats his tofu.

"But, you'll kick me if I let you go."

"So what!?"

"Remember, you smashed my egg a long time ago."

Recalling that scene again, Li Jie was embarrassed that he hid his face on the pillow. But, what is this? Why is it aching at his front?

"Li Jie look. You're little twin is standing up." When Li Jie heard this, he really wanted to die.

He looked at Delun and saw his lusty gaze. He traced his gaze down to his groin and yes, the groin held a tent from his pants.

Li Jie's misty eyes stared at Delun's lusty gaze. Seeing his wife's alluring gaze, Delun heard a loud thunder on his head, snapped his sanity.

Delun leaned down and nibbled Li Jie's earlobe earning whimpers on his wife's shaking mouth. Delun smiled, "I'm hard. What am I going to do?"

Delun's breath tickled Li Jie's ear, making the little beast inside of him swelled even more.

"H-help me..." Li Jie whined faintly, and he was stunned at his actions towards himself.

"You said it."

"W-wait I didn't mean to... hmph..." Delun sealed Li Jie's lips and savored every second as their tongues intertwined to each other. Li Jie wanted to push Delun but had long given up for he can't stop Delun's strength.

Delun snaked his hands on Li Jie's body making Li Jie jolted. Bewitched by the kiss, he didn't even noticed Delun's hand seized under his clothes, roaming his body and touched the two pink beans.

"Hngh..." Li Jie whimpered, the hand that was assaulting him didn't stop snaking him. Delun sucked Li Jie's neck as if it was his favorite dish. Delun became impatient and ripped his clothes, from his body to below, he was deeply exposed.

Li Jie's face tainted red from embarrassment. But he quickly let out a loud moan when Delun stroke his little member, overwhelming his sensitivity. Delun jerked both of their members together. The pleasure was too strong, making Li Jie shed tears from the feeling.

"Delun... No more... I can't... Ahh!!" As quick as that Li Jie spewed out the white liquid from his shaft.

Li Jie panted heavily however, Delun was unsatisfied.

"Honey... I'm not done yet." Delun's voice was sexy and magical, making Li Jie entirely submitted himself to the devil.

And, this time, he was deeply trapped by the charm of his husband.
