Chapter Two of the Romantic Continent: Enticing with Secrets

The city gates of Esnia are bustling and busy every day, especially these days due to the grand wedding ceremony of the Second Prince of Fast and Princess Wu'anxiu. Besides envoys from various countries, numerous famous performing arts groups have been invited to perform in this largest and most prosperous city on the continent. Merchant caravans from all over also hope to make a fortune, so the main road leading to Esnia is constantly filled with all kinds of horse caravans and people speaking various languages.

This marriage alliance between the two countries was originally supposed to be the grandest event on the continent, but unfortunately, the Qingzhou rebellion that broke out a few days ago cast a shadow over it. Many interested people have turned their attention to Qingzhou, focusing on how the Fast Empire will handle this sudden rebellion and secretly assessing the current strength of the empire and the distribution of power within its borders.

The selection of the commander to lead the expedition to Qingzhou was quickly announced, and to everyone's surprise, it was neither a general from the Yunaa faction nor a minister from the Gilemans faction, but rather Earl Shah, who had always maintained a neutral stance. He would be going to Qingzhou to oversee the battle, guiding and coordinating the six armies of the Southern Legion and the four armies of the Eastern Legion in suppressing those who had raised the banner of rebellion.

"Why is it Lord Shah?"

Many who heard the news secretly wondered, and this was exactly the answer Liu Qin'er wanted to get from Yu Fengwu. "The reason shouldn't be too hard to guess!"

Before Yu Fengwu could answer, the man beside her had already said to the beautiful woman in front of him with a very confident tone, "Huh, when did you become so smart?"

Not only Liu Qin'er, but even Yu Zhu and Long Ling'er were surprised. Ye Tianlong had never seemed to show his talent in this area before, so why did he suddenly say such things today?

Seeing the disbelieving looks on the women's faces, Ye Tianlong felt greatly discouraged. He turned to look at the beautiful war goddess to his right. Yu Fengwu was looking at him with an approving expression, her beautiful eyes filled with deep meaning.

"Fengwu understands me best!" Encouraged, Ye Tianlong's spirits lifted, and he reached out to embrace Yu Fengwu's slender waist to express his gratitude and that she stood by him.

"Those two guys want to drive Xia He out of Esnia, and if possible, they might even use him as a tool to kill someone—."

Ye Tianlong had grasped the underlying reason when Yunaia and Gilemans strongly recommended Xia He. Clearly, Xia He was an obstacle in Yunaia and Gilemans's eyes, which was why they unanimously recommended him to quell the rebellion.

It should be noted that Xia He was one of the three great generals of Fast. The Fast Empire's military currently had three highest-ranking generals: General Yu Fengwu (Flying Phoenix), General Hai Yingyang (Eagle Soaring), and this Pillar of State General Xia He.

The first two generals were renowned commanders with significant military achievements, making their recommendation well-deserved. This Earl Shah was no ordinary man; he was a renowned veteran in the Fast military, far surpassing Yu Fengwu and Hai Yingyang in seniority. Before taking command of the military in Yunaya, he had served as the Grand Marshal, wielding considerable power within the military. He held significant influence in the court, representing a third-party force alongside Cliff's father, Sterling.

Furthermore, Shah was a key figure in facilitating the marriage alliance between Fast and Wu'an, demonstrating his favor towards the Second Prince. Such a figure remaining in the court would be a serious problem for both Yunaya and Gilmans. Therefore, seizing this opportunity to send him away was the most opportune choice.

Yu Fengwu nodded secretly. She knew that her husband was no less adept at understanding such tactics than those others. Frankly, this was how court struggles were; everyone employed ingenious schemes, and any means were acceptable as long as the opponent could be defeated.

Although she understood this principle, her beliefs prevented her from actually doing it. That's why she had been leading troops far away from this city full of intrigue and treachery before meeting Ye Tianlong.

"If that's the case, then why did His Majesty agree to such a proposal?" Seeing Ye Tianlong's smug expression, Long Ling'er, though already agreeing with his view, still wanted to find a problem to trouble him.

"Uh... well..." Ye Tianlong was momentarily speechless. He hadn't actually figured it out either. Andre III wasn't a muddle-headed old man; Ye Tianlong had already experienced his shrewdness. Therefore, it seemed somewhat rash for Andre III to agree to the proposal from Yunaia and Gilemans. Was there something he hadn't considered?

Ye Tianlong naturally couldn't fathom the emperor's thinking, and no one could fully guess what the emperor was up to. What exactly was Andre III up to? Ye Tianlong wasn't the only one racking his brains; many others were also racking their brains over it.

Standing beside Ye Tianlong, Yu Fengwu vaguely discerned the emperor's intentions, but as a wife, she didn't want to overshadow her husband. Even if she wanted to speak out, she'd prefer to wait for the right moment. Moreover, her primary concern was that Yunaia and Gilemans's decision to send away Xiahe, a man of considerable influence, at this time must have some ulterior motive. Andrei III's agreement to release Xiahe meant giving Yunaia and Gilemans an opportunity to act. Could it be that her father was impatient?

Since she couldn't figure anything out, she decided not to waste her energy. The man, who rarely made things difficult for himself, quickly put this problem aside and began to address another pressing issue.

"How can I subdue this dragon girl?" From the moment they met, Long Ling'er, who had appeared before Ye Tianlong as his denier, had been a real headache for him.

Because Long Ling'er was one of the few women who could frequently frustrate and humiliate him, and now that she had found a weakness in him, Ye Tianlong felt a chill run down his spine when he thought about the two requests he owed her. Who knew what kind of wicked ideas this quirky dragon beauty would come up with?

"Tianlong, how do you plan to arrange the security for the Second Prince's wedding ceremony?" Yu Fengwu promptly excused Ye Tianlong, shifting the topic to something that everyone was also concerned about. King Andrei III had already given Ye Tianlong full responsibility for ensuring the smooth completion of the marriage alliance between Fast and Wu'an, but Ye Tianlong's unjust imprisonment had caused unexpected setbacks in the process.

The most worrying thing was that Yusuf had actually escaped from prison. On the very night Ye Tianlong was imprisoned, with the help of a group of unidentified men in black, Yusuf broke out of the prison and disappeared into the vast night of Esnia.

Now, finding these people among Esnia's millions of people would be incredibly difficult. What this local tyrant, who hated Ye Tianlong to the bone, would do was unpredictable.

"I've already had Lu Tu and Fan Gang send out all the underground forces of Esnia that we've subdued. With these omnipresent eyes and ears, Esnia's every move will be well monitored."

A piercing light flashed in Ye Tianlong's eyes as he continued confidently, "The law enforcement teams trained by Qing Ji are also ready to be deployed at any time. With Shi Yixin overseeing things at the Eastern Governor's Office, we should be able to eliminate them before any trouble arises."

Yu Fengwu smiled slightly and glanced at Long Ling'er beside her, saying, "Tianlong, don't forget that we still have the most important force at our disposal!"

Ye Tianlong laughed and said, "How could I forget the infantry guard regiment that my little sister Long personally trained? She is my greatest weapon, my most important mobile force, and my most trustworthy support."

To please Long Ling'er, Ye Tianlong used every compliment he could think of, thoroughly flattering her.

Although Long Ling'er was very pleased, she still said in a light tone, "Don't flatter me, I'm not buying it! They're just light infantry, what great use can they be? Lord Qingji's lancers are the truly formidable!"

"You're wrong," Ye Tianlong said seriously, "In the current situation, if we're going to take action, it's definitely a matter of first come, first served!

Light infantry may be poorly equipped, but their mobility in the city far surpasses that of other military units, allowing them to reach their destination in the shortest amount of time."

"Most importantly, under your training and leadership, the Imperial Guard's combat strength is absolutely no less than that of the enforcement team composed of lancers! Plus, their freedom of deployment far exceeds that of the enforcement team under the Eastern Governor's Office. It's no exaggeration to say that the Imperial Guard is our greatest weapon!"

Ye Tianlong's confident and powerful aura as he spoke made everyone in front of him take notice. Sensing this unprecedented change in the man, Liu Qin'er couldn't help but ask, "Tianlong, when did you learn all this?"

Ye Tianlong smiled smugly, glancing at Yu Fengwu who was watching him intently, and replied, "Someone as smart as me, with such a good teacher, of course I'll become more and more powerful! Haha!"

Liu Qin'er gave him a sidelong glance, but seeing Yu Fengwu's approving look, she knew his analysis was indeed correct; he had completely grasped Yu Fengwu's intention in establishing the Infantry Imperial Guard.

Long Ling'er was even more surprised; this man actually possessed such a mind. It seemed there was a reason why Yu Fengwu liked him. Seeing Long Ling'er's thoughtful expression, Ye Tianlong's heart stirred, and a thought suddenly popped into his head. "The snow scene outside is really beautiful today, do you want to go see it?"

Rarely hearing Ye Tianlong make such a suggestion, Yu Fengwu and the others immediately agreed. Soon, everyone was chattering about this once-in-a-century snowfall, the scene quite lively.

Taking advantage of everyone's inattention, Ye Tianlong gently tugged at Long Ling'er from behind. Long Ling'er turned around in confusion and saw Ye Tianlong gesturing for her to be quiet before pulling her a few steps outside.

Just as Long Ling'er was about to become impatient, she suddenly heard Ye Tianlong whisper something in her ear that stirred her heart: "Do you want to know a secret?"

Long Ling'er couldn't help but feel curious; she had never seen Ye Tianlong act so mysteriously before, and she couldn't help but feel a great desire to know the secret he was talking about.

"What secret?" Without realizing it, Long Ling'er also imitated Ye Tianlong's mysterious manner, asking softly.

"Want to know why Fengwu likes being with me?"

Long Ling'er's crescent-shaped eyes lit up instantly; she desperately wanted to know the reason! It was precisely because she deeply loved Yu Fengwu that Long Ling'er was so infatuated with Ye Tianlong. What was so good about this man that Yu Fengwu liked him so much?

Now Ye Tianlong was actually going to tell her this secret, which was absolutely what she wanted most.

Long Ling'er looked Ye Tianlong up and down, making sure that this man had no other intentions, and then nodded vigorously.

Ye Tianlong was overjoyed. He already knew how to deal with Long Ling'er's ability to read minds. He had just tested it out, and it had worked. Therefore, he was more confident about his next move.

"Then wait for me at the small building in the back garden after lunch today!" Ye Tianlong said this and left.

"Okay! I guess I'll have to wait!" Long Ling'er had no choice but to agree. She didn't realize that she had already been led by the nose by this man.

After lunch, Yu Fengwu and the others agreed to go see the snow scenery, and Ye Tianlong made an excuse to say that he would come to find them later.

As soon as Feng Wu and the others' carriage left, Ye Tianlong hurriedly ran to the small building in the back garden. He pushed open the door to the room inside, and Long Ling'er was already there, idly watching the fish swimming in the lake from the window.

Hearing Ye Tianlong's footsteps, Long Ling'er immediately turned around, her crescent-shaped eyes sparkling.

"You're only coming now? Hurry up and tell me that secret!"

Ye Tianlong chuckled, carefully closed the door behind him, and said to Long Ling'er, "When you came, no one else knew, right?"

Long Ling'er said impatiently, "No! I even checked around here, there's no one else here."

Ye Tianlong nodded, walked confidently to a chair, sat down, coughed lightly, and said, "Alright, now I'll tell you why Feng Wu likes me!"

Long Ling'er stared wide-eyed at Ye Tianlong without blinking, making his heart pound with anxiety, afraid that she might accidentally reveal his thoughts, which would be disastrous.

Following his pre-arranged plan, he kept his thoughts focused on Yu Fengwu, imagining their intimacy and her virtues.

As expected, a faint blush gradually appeared on Long Ling'er's face; clearly, she was observing Ye Tianlong's thoughts and accepting all his imaginings. If the object of his affections were someone else, Long Ling'er might not have felt anything, but Yu Fengwu was her favorite person, naturally capturing her attention and making her want to explore further.

In Ye Tianlong's heart, Long Ling'er saw another Yu Fengwu, a Yu Fengwu who had never appeared in public before—her most private life. The feeling was like spying on her beloved, unconsciously giving Long Ling'er a feeling she had never experienced before.

It could be said that because Long Ling'er had placed her heart in Yu Fengwu's, and because of Yu Fengwu's deep affection for Ye Tianlong, she felt as if she were experiencing it herself—a very strange feeling that Long Ling'er had never experienced with Yu Fengwu before.

Ye Tianlong had been carefully observing the every move of the beautiful dragon girl before him. Seeing this, he knew things were proceeding as he had predicted; Long Ling'er's heart was completely captivated.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Ye Tianlong said calmly, "You know a lot now, right?"

"N-nothing…" Startled by Ye Tianlong's sudden question, Long Ling'er was clearly flustered, looking like a child caught red-handed doing something wrong. Her unprecedented shyness and unease amused Ye Tianlong greatly.

At the same time, Ye Tianlong was secretly amazed. He hadn't expected this beautiful dragon girl to actually have such feelings for Feng Wu. He had only heard of such things before; he never imagined it would happen right before his own eyes. It was truly fascinating.

From that moment on, Ye Tianlong knew he had the upper hand. Just as Long Ling'er's emotions were about to stabilize, he immediately added, "Because I bring Feng Wu the greatest happiness, that's why she loves me so much!"

Long Ling'er's crescent-shaped eyes widened, but seeing that Ye Tianlong had no intention of continuing, she urged, "Hurry up and tell me!"

She really wanted to know how to bring Feng Wu the greatest happiness. If she also possessed this ability, wouldn't her relationship with Feng Wu be even stronger?

Ye Tianlong smiled mysteriously and said leisurely, "This is a request you made!"

Long Ling'er's mind was already captivated by this, and without much thought, she nodded and said, "That's right, Brother Ye, please tell me! How exactly do you bring Sister Feng Wu the greatest happiness?"

Ye Tianlong smiled with satisfaction and beckoned, saying, "Come here, I'll tell you slowly!"

"Good!" Long Ling'er was overjoyed. Without any apparent effort, she flew towards Ye Tianlong, chair and all, landing steadily a foot away from him, demonstrating her extraordinary skill.

Ye Tianlong was secretly startled, thinking, "How did this little girl learn her kung fu?"

Despite his thoughts, he looked at Long Ling'er's fair and rosy face and said earnestly, "You saw a lot just now, didn't you?"

Long Ling'er's face flushed slightly, but seeing Ye Tianlong's serious expression, she could only nod gently, admitting that she had been spying on his mind, which was tantamount to formally acknowledging her own ability to see into others' thoughts.

"First of all, I love Feng Wu very much..."

"I love her very much too!" Long Ling'er replied earnestly.

"Of course there's more!" Ye Tianlong said in a very serious tone, "Didn't you just see how happy I was with Feng Wu?"

Long Ling'er nodded, her face flushed. No one had ever told her about matters of love and romance. Back on Jade Dragon Mountain, the dragon clan's territory, everyone there was much older than her, and given their serious and proper personalities, they hadn't discussed these things with her. After descending the mountain, she wandered around for a while, meeting many people and gaining some understanding of relationships. However, because many people were only after her stunning beauty, intending to take advantage of her, their malicious intent left a very bad impression on Long Ling'er.

When she was with Ye Tianlong and Feng Wu, she realized that this man seemed to be thinking about these things all the time, and coupled with her relationship with Feng Wu, Long Ling'er's feelings towards Ye Tianlong became extremely negative.

However, after spending some time together, Long Ling'er realized that things weren't as she had imagined. Using her ability to read minds, she discovered that Yu Fengwu, Liu Qin'er, and Yu Zhu all seemed to be thoroughly enjoying themselves, which puzzled her greatly. What was the secret behind this?

But she was too embarrassed to ask, and no one would tell her these things willingly, so the mystery remained in her mind.

Seeing Long Ling'er's expression, Ye Tianlong was overjoyed. Although he didn't possess the same mind-reading abilities as Long Ling'er and Yu Fengwu, he was quite knowledgeable about women's psychology. Long Ling'er's expression perfectly captured the shy, inquisitive nature of a young girl.

Seizing the opportunity, Ye Tianlong suddenly leaned close to Long Ling'er's ear and whispered, "That's a wonderful thing. I use this method to bring Yu Fengwu and the others the greatest joy!"

Before Long Ling'er could react, Ye Tianlong continued, "Would you like to see this skill? Would you like me to teach you?"

Long Ling'er's delicate body trembled slightly, her eyes wide with confusion and surprise as she stared blankly at Ye Tianlong's face, which was less than a fist's distance away from her pretty face.
