บท 316: A Lie is not a Lie

Sheng Li, after taking a bath, came back to Zhenzhu Inn. He had a broad smile on his lips. Xing-Fu was following the Crown Prince. He was delighted to see those expressions on the face of the Crown Prince. "Xing-Fu, did you bring those flowers that I told you to pick from the garden?" Sheng Li turned and looked at him. 

"I forgot, your highness," Xing-Fu was terrified, thinking if the Crown Prince would be angry at him, so to rectify his mistake, he immediately said, "Forgive me. I will bring them quickly, your highness." 

"I am going there. You go to Zhenzhu Inn. Prepare for our dinner," Sheng Li commanded him. Xing-Fu bowed, acknowledging the order of the Crown Prince, who walked past him. 

It was late evening, so it was a little difficult for him to check the flowers. He asked a servant to hand him a lantern. The servant did so and asked humbly from the Crown Prince if he should lead the way.
