บท 19: Chapter 19 : The Crown Prince Was A Player

Zhang Fengxi's mouth dropped open in bewilderment. Xie Jianyu, a player? But no. No, no, no.

He was an omega. Of course, like other omegas, he preferred to surround himself with omegas.

"The Crown Prince has just differentiated into an alpha. I am sure that he is just trying to explore his sexuality," Zhang Fengxi argued.

The two alphas stared at him.

"Prince Zhang Fengxi, no offense, but we all just differentiated into alphas. Our parents will cut our limbs off if we grant ourselves the same degree of freedom."

Right.

Zhang Fengxi cleared his throat awkwardly. He forgot that he was back in his eighteen-year-old body. Why must he speak like an old man?

"Aaaand look at that," the second alpha nodded in the direction of the Liu family and the crown prince. "He is already taking the next step."

Zhang Fengxi turned his head around so quickly that he might snap his neck, but he could not care less. Xie Jianyu, that Xie Jianyu took Liu Wenyuan's hand and led him out of the banquet hall!!!

No, no, no… this could not be happening.

Zhang Fengxi gave the lamest excuse he could conjure and followed the couple outside.

He had to abandon all dignity and squat behind a neatly trimmed bush to listen to the conversation between the crown prince and the love of his life.

"Crown Prince, you truly honor our palace with your presence today," Liu Wenyuan spoke in a sweet, melodious voice. He bit shyly into his lower lip while batting his perfect eyelashes at Xie Jianyu.

Xie Jianyu gave Liu Wenyuan a charming smile, but his eyes were devoid of infatuation. Zhang Fengxi could see that he was only there to extend the Wuyang Palace some courtesy on behalf of Fuxi Palace. He did not really plan to woo Liu Wenyuan. Zhang Fengxi exhaled out of relief.

Of course, he told himself. He was so dumb.

Had Xie Jianyu been serious about pursuing Liu Wenyuan, Liu Yichen would be more than happy to deliver his son to Fuxi Palace's entrance gate on the same day. Zhang Fengxi who did not even show up during Liu Wenyuan's Initiation Day was bound to have zero chance of pursuing the omega.

Just as Zhang Fengxi decided to pick up the remaining pieces of his self-respect and crawl back to the banquet hall, Xie Jianyu's sword launched into the air and landed right in front of Zhang Fengxi.

"Show yourself," his cold voice soon followed.

Zhang Fengxi was speechless. Was his cultivation so poor at this age that he was unable to hide his presence from Xie Jianyu? Or was Xie Jianyu's cultivation over the top?

Lacking better options, Zhang Fengxi pulled Winter Frost from the ground and rose to his feet. Xie Jianyu narrowed his eyes at him, and Liu Wenyuan pressed both hands against his mouth.

"Oh, my," he said. "This… Prince Fengxi, I…"

Both Zhang Fengxi and Xie Jianyu walked toward each other. They only stopped once they were just ten feet apart from each other.

"My sword," Xie Jianyu extended his hand at Zhang Fengxi. His sharp gaze demanded unconditional obeisance from Zhang Fengxi, but the latter was disinclined to show Xie Jianyu some respect.

He instead played with Winter Frost, flipping the sword around his fingers like some harmless toy.

"Today is Prince Liu Wenyuan's Initiation Day," he said. "Why must the Crown Prince come to Wuyang Palace with a sword? Are you preparing yourself for a fight?"

Xie Jianyu sneered at Zhang Fengxi.

"Do you presume to question me? Maybe I should pay a visit to Longjing Palace too. Longjing Palace Master would be delighted to hear that his son likes to eavesdrop on other people's conversations."

Zhang Fengxi chuckled.

"My esteemed father will understand if I explain the circumstances to him. Omegas and alphas do not spend time together without any chaperones. Considering that this is Prince Liu Wenyuan's Initiation Day, I am naturally concerned about his safety."

"Heh, so are you here to protect him from me?"

A remorseless smile played around the corners of Zhang Fengxi's lips. "Pretty much."

"Then let's see whether you are all talk or you do have the ability to oppose me!"

Xie Jianyu stepped off the ground and lunged at Zhang Fengxi. The latter tossed Winter Frost away and parried Xie Jianyu's attacks one by one. Apparently, Xie Jianyu's talent in swordsmanship did not prevent him from excelling in close-range fights at all.

Zhang Fengxi was able to block Xie Jianyu's attacks, but he was unable to slot in even a hit. Xie Jianyu's movements were as fast as lightning and as unrelenting as ocean waves. On top of that, Zhang Fengxi did not want to accidentally hurt Xie Jianyu. A fight between an omega and an alpha was unheard of…

Their fight carried over to the edge of the palace ground. The area was rocky and uneven. To make it worse, the rain from last night caused the ground to be soft and slippery. Due to one careless step, Xie Jianyu slipped and fell backward. Just before he hit the ground, Zhang Fengxi yanked at his arm hard.

In the next moment, they tumbled together to the ground with Zhang Fengxi shielding Xie Jianyu's fall and holding him in a tight embrace. With one protective hand behind Xie Jianyu's head, Zhang Fengxi involuntarily buried his nose against Xie Jianyu's neck and took a deep breath.

As expected, he could smell no alpha pheromones from Xie Jianyu's body. Instead, there was a faint, sweet smell that emanated from him. The kind of scent that omegas used to lure the alphas.

While Zhang Fengxi was trying to guess what kind of smell it was, he was forcefully pushed away by Xie Jianyu. The latter passed Zhang Fengxi a crisp slap on the cheek. The slap was so hard that he only saw stars for the next few seconds.

"Impudent!!!" Xie Jianyu cried out. His whole body shook from fury. Never before had he been humiliated to this extent!

บท 20: Chapter 20 : Zhang Fengxi Was Supposedly Into Alphas

Longjing Palace Master Zhang Zhiyuan and his wife, Lady Song, were speechless.

It was not as if Initiation Days usually went smoothly without an incident. It was an omega's big day, and someone as beautiful as Liu Wenyuan was bound to have suitors fighting for his hand.

But then, usually, the fighting suitors did not land on the ground in a tight embrace, making it look like they were involved in some macabre affair. To make matters even worse, Zhang Fengxi just had to roll around with the Crown Prince himself!

"Heavens, spare me," Zhang Zhiyuan slapped his own forehead in regret. "My Lady, do you still believe that Fengxi likes omegas? I have strong reasons to suspect that he has a thing for alphas. Granted, the Crown Prince is quite an existence to behold…"

Lady Song pursed her lips in displeasure. She smacked her fan against the table next to her in fury.

"My Lord, what are you saying??? Fengxi is a normal alpha with a normal inclination toward omegas! It was just a fight between two alphas that somehow ended in an eerie way. We must never doubt our son!!!"

While his parents were busy determining his sexual orientation, Zhang Fengxi locked himself in his bedroom and howled into his pillow out of frustration.

That prude Crown Prince, Xie Jianyu!!!

It was an accident. Accident!

Must he react as if Zhang Fengxi intended to dishonor him???

To make matters even worse, a summon arrived from the Golden Dragon Palace three days later. The prominent heirs of all palaces were invited to the main palace to learn from the Grand Tutor for the next six months. It was meant not only to educate but also to foster bonds among the princes and princesses. In the future, they would rise to be palace masters, court officials, and fill other important positions.

Three days later, Zhang Fengxi dragged his sullen self to the Golden Dragon Palace. Standing tall at the center of the Heavenly Empire, the palace almost looked like a gigantic and yet magnificent beast.

Zhang Fengxi's arrival had been expected. A smiling eunuch went out to greet him the moment he climbed off his spiritual mount.

"Welcome, Prince Zhang Fengxi. Allow me to take you to the Crystal Jade Pavilion."

The name "Crystal Jade Pavilion" struck a chord in Zhang Fengxi's heart. In his previous life, Liu Wenyuan lost his life at Crystal Jade Pond. The pavilion was built right next to it.

While Zhang Fengxi followed the eunuch, his eyes wandered left and right.

The palace was as busy as he remembered, back when the Emperor was still alive.

Important court officials went in and out of the gates. Young eunuchs and maids rushed from one building to attend to the royal family. Guards stood at their assigned spots with ramrod straight back and stern facial expressions.

In his previous life, Zhang Fengxi was used to hold the highest military power in the empire. It felt strange to walk into the palace again as his younger self, back when he was just one of the princes to inherit the palace master position. Back when he was no threat to anyone.

"We are here, Prince," the eunuch spoke again, pulling Zhang Fengxi out of his daydreams.

"Oh. Alright."

Zhang Fengxi did not immediately enter. Instead, he looked up at the familiar pavilion. When he was younger, his father told him that this pavilion used to have eighteen windows. All eighteen windows were taken off when the Empress complained about not being able to enjoy the pond's beauty without hindrances.

Never mind that the windows prevented rain and snow from soiling its interior. The architects must come up with a better design! And so they worked on the eaves, calculating and shaping every angle so that the pavilion did not have to rely on the windows.

Bamboo curtains were put in place on top of the windows, just in case a storm was too severe and threatened to lay waste to the pavilion.

The Empress was satisfied with the arrangement.

Afterward, on one occasion, it was decided that the Crystal Jade Pond and the pavilion served as a very good studying environment, particularly for young princes and princesses. It could accommodate up to thirty students.

Polished rosewood desks and seating pillows were thus delivered from the main palace and placed at the pavilion. The Grand Tutor held his lessons there almost every week.

When Zhang Fengxi entered, the pavilion was empty save for two figures who were huddled close to each other.

They raised their eyes at the same time to see who the newcomer was. The corners of Zhang Fengxi's lips tightened when he saw who the other two people were. Xie Jianyu and Jiang Muchen.
