"Trespa.s.sers will meet with death!"  Ying Yan Long's fingers gripped her shoulders and he said harshly.

"The capital city is under the feet of the Emperor.  Who is so bold......."  Just as Hua Ming Zi's words halted, Ying Yang Long's big hand covered her mouth at the same time. 

She was shocked.  Suddenly she understood the bold person may be the only person who can do whatever he wants in the capital.

"Regardless of who ordered the Villa to be sealed, the journey to and fro would take at least three sichen and what if your wounds opened up again?  The Divine Doctor is not in the capital now, so are you determined to see Young Master Mei.......exchanging a life for a life?  Moreover, what if Luo Ji Cai received news and sent his people to block your way in the middle of the road?  I can send people to protect you but in a fierce battle, can you guarantee you will not get hurt?  Did you also damage your brains when you were seriously injured the last time?"

Ying Yan Long was only thinking of the dangers she would encounter once she rushed out.  His face changed and his reprimands became even more severe.

Hua Ming Zi had never been reprimanded like this before.  A burst of anger rushed to her head and she angrily slapped away his hand then she said bluntly.

"Yes!  I don't have brains!  But I have a heart.  I know that my friend is dying, so I will fight to see him!"

"In order to see him, you are implicating the Hua Family, the Ying Family and putting hundreds of lives at stake.  Does this not matter to you?"  He glared at her. 

Hua Ming Zi bit hard on her lip and recalled the b.l.o.o.d.y course of events when the present Heavenly Emperor fought for the throne.  She shuddered. 

So, the person who actually sealed the Villa is really the Emperor.......

Ying Yan Long looked at her face which had turned pale and his heart could not bear it.  He pulled her into his arms and caressed her face as he said softly.  "I am not heartless but my heart is only concerned for you.  What I worry the most is your safety."

She looked at his black eyes that made her fl.u.s.tered.  She frowned and pushed his shoulders.

"You can't always use this method to control me.  I am not a child."

"I can and I will continue to use this method."

"Then I am not getting married!"  She glared at him.

"You have to marry and moreover, you have to be married at an earlier date.  I have already instructed Steward Zhu to invite the Ying Family Clan and said that your Father and my Father, both said in our dreams that we are to be married today."  Ying Yan Long said with a solemn face.

"Are you crazy?  Why so sudden?"  She asked.

"If Mei Yi Wen had shouted out your name in front of that person or revealed any of his feelings, as my wife, you will still have a chance to save your life."  He said in a low voice.

She took a deep breath and her whole mind was in a chaotic mess.

"You think too much.  The situation may not be so serious......"

He lowered his head to kiss her on the lips and when she struggled, he held her two wrists with one hand, easily halting her struggles.

A drop of tear slipped out of her eyes and she turned her face aside so that he would not notice. 

Holding her chin, he turned her face back and asked.  "Why are you crying?"

"I cried because of you!  I hate being controlled by you!  I hate you for making all the decisions for me!  The Hua Ji Restaurants were established by me and even if in the future, my health is not good, I'm not like most normal women.  The way you treat me, keeping everything from me, forbidding me to ask......."

"If you were not different from others, how would I marry you?  It's just that at this time, your injuries are still not healed and this is a grave matter, so I have to make a decision first.  In future, if you are not happy with anything, as long as it does not endanger your health, I will make the decisions with you, so......."

"I can decide on my own physical condition."  She looked steadily at him.

Ying Yan Long's lips tightened and his thick eyebrows knotted up.  After all, he is not used to anyone disobeying him.

"If you can't even let me make my own decision on this matter then we have nothing to talk about.  I will return to Hua Mansion tomorrow."  She said with a gloomy face.

"When I first decided to remarry, it was because I wanted someone to take care of the internal affairs at home so that I don't have worries when I am outside.  Who knows I would fall in love with you."  He covered her mouth and prevented her from speaking.

"I know you are not in good health and I also know you are worried about the Hua Ji Restaurants.  Whichever, it will still give me worries.  But since I already love you, I will have to take care of a lot more otherwise I will not be able to be at peace.  Therefore, we have to be married and you have to learn to take care of your health first, then only you can do what you want to do.  Is that alright?"

When Hua Ming Zi saw the concern in his eyes and also noticed his haggard face, the anger in her that was stirred up by him had already dissolved by half.  She could even put herself in his shoes and come to the conclusion that she would have also done the same as him.......

Protect your loved ones first.

"I can refrain from interfering with the matters relating to your business, but regarding other matters that are related to me, you have to discuss with me.  On the other hand, I will also do the same, alright?"  He asked.

Out of habit, she wanted to open her mouth to refute, but then he sighed lightly and said.  "Don't make me worry."

A feeling of sourness rose in her nose and remembered that while he was busy he would still constantly monitor her food and was concerned for her every move.  He would also do everything possible to put her in a good mood. 

It must be her parents who are giving their blessings in heaven, so she can have such a husband.

"Why don't you speak?  If you have any opinion, you should bring it up for discussion."  He sighed and he was already prepared to reason with her.

"Not speaking is acquiescence."  Hua Ming Zi used her fingertips to stroke the wrinkles between his eyebrows and said in a faint voice.  "I agree with you."

Instantly, his eyebrows relaxed and he began to smile.

She also smiled and complying with his gesture, she leaned into his arms.

"About Brother Mei, you really can't go to see him.  If there is any news, I will let you know right away."

"Um.......I'll listen to you."

Seeing that it was rare for her to be so cooperative with him, he looked at her with a smiling expression on his face.

"Tonight, you will be my wife and you will share my bed with me."  He said.

"You.......why do you only think about those things........"  She glanced at him.

"If I don't think about those things with you, then you will have to worry about being alone and unable to sleep."  He smiled and leaned forward to kiss her lightly on the lips.

"I won't......"  Her voice disappeared at the touch of his lips and when their lips met, sparks were ignited.  The breath of the two people became heavy and their tongues intertwined.......

"Don't be unruly.  I'm still worried about Brother Mei........"  She gave him a push and remembered the feeling of restlessness she felt these few days.

"Dangjia!  Dangjia!  Are you here?"

Steward Zhu's shouts outside made Ying Yan Long sit up abruptly and his face sank.

Something must have happened!  Otherwise, Steward Zhu will not be so fl.u.s.tered.

After they exchanged a glance, he turned around and walked out.

"I am coming with you."  Hua Ming Zi pulled his sleeve.

Ying Yan Long hesitated for a moment, then he nodded.  Since they were to be husband and wife, then they will have to face problems together.  Supporting her with one hand, he called out before he reached the door.  "Come in to speak!"

Pus.h.i.+ng the door opened, Steward Zhu came in with a face full of anxiety and said.  "Deputy General Ji and the imperial guards are outside.  They said they are escorting you into the palace!"

Ying Yan Long's chest tightened and his thick eyebrows knotted. 

Usually, if the Emperor wants to see him, he would always send Xu Gonggong* and several guards but now the Emperor's imperial guards are sent instead.  Can this be anything good?!

(Gonggong is the t.i.tle given to a eunuch.)

Holding Ying Yan Long's hand, Hua Ming Zi looked at Steward Zhu and asked.  "Did they say why they are taking him into the palace?"

"No."  Although Steward Zhu's expression was steady, he could not hide his worry.

"I will follow them.  Don't worry."  Ying Yan Long gripped her hand in turn and said to Steward Zhu.  "Don't let the news of me being taken away be known outside.  The Mansion and the Medical Halls shall be managed according to your usual judgment.  If you encounter any major problem, seek out Hua Dangjia and Xue Wen for discussion.  Their opinion will represent my opinion."

When Hua Ming Zi heard his words, it felt like he was giving his last instructions and her face turned pale.  She shook her head and said.  "Don't let your imagination run.........." 

"Any matter that involves the palace, life and death are unpredictable.  Once I leave, I don't know what will happen next.  If there is any problem, let Steward Zhu help you.  If you can't handle it, it's alright.  Wealth is inessential, keeping alive is more important." 

He grabbed her arms and said in a low voice. "If there is really something wrong, then let Xue Wen take my Mother and you away from this place.  He has a way to do this."

"I will deal with matters at home.  Now you have to immediately tell Steward Zhu the names of the people in the imperial court and the palace who can speak for you and the names of the people who can tell us about the situation inside the palace.  We will think of ways to keep you safe."  She grabbed his hands and refused to let him go.

"I will listen to my Wife's instructions."  Ying Yan Long opened his arms and hugged her tightly in his arms.

Her eye rims turned red and ignored the people present.  She also hugged him tightly and really wanted to embed herself into his arms.

Steward Zhu turned away his eyes and sighed silently.  He only hoped that fate would not play with people.  It was with much difficulty, their Dangjia could finally find a woman he loves.

"This is enough.......there is no time to delay.  I had once saved the life of the Deputy General's mother, so he did not come in immediately to arrest me but also let Steward Zhu inform me in advance.  This is considered as repaying my grace." 

Ying Yan Long held her shoulders and pushed her away at an arm's length.  "You should go to Xue Wen and my Mother.  Tell them about the situation.  The important thing is......"

"First, gather all the valuables and then arrange for a retreat."  Hua Ming Zi continued for him.

When Ying Yan Long heard her say out the important point, he laughed.  "To have a wife like you, what more can a husband ask?"

"Husband and wife should always be as one."  Hua Ming knew from that moment onwards, there would never be any division on what is his and what is hers.  She will shoulder the responsibilities of his affairs.

"Good, hurry up and go."  Ying Yan Long pushed her further into the chamber and he took a step backward towards the door.

She nodded and after reluctantly exchanging a glance with him, she called out to Cui Xuan and Cui Yu. 

In the face of such a major problem, it is not the time for her to think of their love for each other and she still has to deal with a lot of matters.
