AST 1928 - Great Confucian Order, Guardian Immortal Confucian? (1/2)
“Young man, do you know that a doctor who saves lives can get himself killed too.”
Qing Shui smirked at the Little Prince’s words, the smile was natural. He stared at the Little Prince and said, “Little Prince, you are threatening me.”
The Little Prince looked upset after listening to Qing Shui’s reply. In his mind, he whispered, ‘Threaten you? Do you deserve to be threatened by me?’ However, he kept it in his heart and looked at Qing Shui, “I was making a statement, you are an outstanding young man, I don’t want to watch you walking to a point of no return.”
“In this life, especially for a warrior, life and death should not be taken too seriously. One must be prepared for the possible consequences to be in the world of warriors. I enjoy the freedom and dislike living at somebody’s mercy. As a doctor, it is an unalterable principle for me to save lives,” Qing Shui had no likings for this Little Prince anymore at the moment.
The Little Prince noticed it for sure, this young man was impermeable. Thus, he could only leave. Cheng Yuan looked dismayed while he sighed and shook his head at Qing Shui.
“If so, we shall not disturb you, I wish you all the best, Mr. Qing,” The Little Prince turned around as he finished the sentence.
Qing Shui’s face turned cold. It was a threat, another threat, an obvious threat. Watching the Little Prince’s silhouette, he said, “I wish you all the best too.”
The Little Prince’s figure trembled and turned around at Qing Shui. His profound eyes were now cold and vicious like a wolf. The murdering intention in his stare was prominent. For the sake of his identity, he left without a word.
Cheng Yuan looked at Qing Shui with a mixed feeling, still, he did not say anything.
After the Little Prince left, the women came into the living room but remained quiet and looked at Qing Shui. Everyone noticed the cold stare of the Little Prince and knew this trouble was hard to deal with. If nothing unexpected happened, they would surely plot against the Imperial Cuisine Hall.
“Everybody, don’t worry. If they dare to come, I will make all of them stay,” Qing Shui sounded unbothered, he was not a piece of cake with his current strength.

……
At night, a few men came to the palace which belonged to the Little Prince. The leading man was a middle-aged man who was dressed splendidly, charming and glowing in spirits. There was an unyielding sense in his charm. Though approaching the middle age, his arrogance was still intense.
“Eldest Brother is here!”
The Little Prince spurted, a slight smile crept onto his face. Anyone could tell that the smile was distant.
The approaching man was the Crown Prince and the authoritative inheritor of the Great Confucian Empire. He looked at Little Prince, “Alright, Nineteen Brother. Don’t need to beat around the bush, we know each other very well. Just be straightforward.”
The man was direct. As he said, they were too familiar with each other. They were rivals to some extent and the Crown Prince must be unhappy for it. The throne of the Great Confucian Empire belonged to him authoritatively, yet, his brother secretly strengthened his own force without considering the sibling love. Once the Little Prince grabbed the chance by hiding in ambush, he would definitely take the throne away from the Crown Prince.
“I came today to cooperate with you, otherwise, we would be finished and the throne would fall into others’ hands,” The Little Prince went straight to the point.
The Crown Prince frowned, looking at Little Prince, he said, “Say it, what is the matter?”
“Someone wants to save the Barbarian Emperor, and it is highly possible to cure him,” The Little Prince did not talk much. As his family, the Crown Prince should know about it well, so he only needed to say this.
Crown Prince looked at Little Prince, “You mean the Imperial Cuisine Hall can cure the Barbarian Emperor.”
Many people knew about the condition of the Barbarian Emperor, the Crown Prince was one of them and he was very careful. He knew that the Barbarian Emperor went for medical treatment in the Imperial Cuisine Hall. Yet, the Barbarian Emperor seek treatment countless times. He knew it was almost impossible to find someone who could cure the Barbarian Emperor. Over the years, nobody had ever done that. Hence, he was less focused on this matter now. Nevertheless, he could never loosen his guard to watch over the Barbarian Emperor.
