60. Planning
Simon was fast asleep once they reached home, while Zhan went to take a bath and the two siblings went to their respective rooms.
Today Zhan felt relieved once he sat in the bathtub a relaxing sigh escaped from his mouth.
After he was done with his bath he proceeded towards his bed and once he felt the softness of his bed the exhaustion washed over him and he fell asleep.
Meanwhile on the other hand Zion stood in his room in the imperial palace when the first prince Danielle came to visit him.
"Your majesty." He said and Zion smiled, "Welcome first prince what business do you have so late a night?"
Danielle clenched his fist and looked at Zion, Danielle had heard that this man was friendly towards Yibo the third prince does this mean that Zion plans to not support them?
And moreover if he tells the emperor about the rebellion they are planning then they will be executed for treason.
"Your majesty about our offer what did you decide?" Danielle asked, he was extremely nervous right now while Zion casually sat on the couch
"What about it?"
Danielle's blood ran cold, does this mean that Zion was going to say no to them, but suddenly Zion added, "I will help you."
Danielle suddenly looked at Zion, his heart was beating fast because of the excitement, "Thank you, your majesty."
Zion smiled, "Don't thank me your highness, I have a very old attachment to this kingdom and I also want someone back."
Danille was confused now," Want someone back? aren't you doing this to obtain the holy obeject?"
Zion smiled, "That is the part of the reason but I actually fell in love, and I want the person I love."
Danielle was shocked for a moment, "May I ask who is it? your majesty?"
Zion smiled, "It's somene your know Prince Danielle, now you can go and sleep and let me rest as well, since I am a little tired now."
Danielle nodded, "Then good night your majesty I will leave now."

The next morning Yibo was in his study going through the documents, but his mind was somewhere else.
"I like you too prince but what if I tell you that I don't like you as a friend?"
Soon jack came to the room and placed something to drnk in front of Yibo, but when he saw Yibo was in his own thoughts he gently called out to him, "Your highness."
"Uh yes?"
Jack smiled gently, "Um... your snacks."
Yibo nodded, and drank his drink before licking his lips and sighing, "Jack."
"Yes, your highness?"
"Say you have a friend and he suddenly tells you that he likes you but not as friend, what would that mean?"
Jack for a second was so shocked that he couldn't believes that Yibo was asking him for something, Yibo the smartest cunning prince was asking him a mere knight.
"Jack." Yibo called out to him and Jack finally realized that it was true so he coughed lightly,
"Your highness naybe he thinks of you as a family?" Yibo nodded and smiled,
"Yeah right maybe he does, I also think of him as a family."
Jack then added, "Maybe he thnks of you as his brother!" and that made Yibo suddenly looked at Jack with wide eyes.
"Hell no!" he sddenly said and that surprised Jack, "Friend is alright but I don't want to be his brother, he already has one."
With that Yibo crossed his hands in front of his chest and sat back on his seat, "Think of something else or else I will make you wear maid's outfit."
Jack's eyes widened and he gulped, how can a knight like him say something to please Yibo, so he remained quiet for sometime, and then he thought that someone as smart as Yibo might not want his answer what Yibo want to listen if Jack is thinking the same things as him.
Meaning Yibo already has an answer but he wants to confirm whether jacks thinks the same way or not, that way it would be a confirmation for Yibo that what he is thinking is right, so Jack cleared his throat and said,
"Well then your Highness, how about a soulmate then?"
And touche, because Yibo finally smiled, "now you are right, I was also thinking the exact same thing, good, good I will give you a raise."
Jack smiled at his childish master before nodding, "Thank you, your highness."
His young master has grown a lot and now that he has became the prince Jack fianlly feels that he can rest assured, only if consort Yuhai was here how happy she would be to see her son's success and even nancy would be in tears right now after seeing the child she raised achieving so much success.
But alas, fate had other plans but Jack is glad to be alive, and being able to see the once a little toddler third prince was now the crown prince of this nation.
Jack is happy and he is proud.

The day was over soon and the night came.
Zion, along with the empress Diane and the first prince Danielle along with the empress's knight Azrael, were secretly going somewhere in the darkness of the night.
"Where are we going? Your majesty?" The empress asked.
Zion smiled, "We are going to meet my people."
And soon they reached their desitnation which was in the outskirts of the capital, and Zion spoke, "Come out everyone."
Once he said that many people came out of hiding and stood in front of Zion in a disciplined manner, and the leader who was covering his face with a scarf came in front of Zion before kneeling down in front of him and the others did the same thing.
The leader then spoke, "All hail the emperor of Sumedian Empire."
"hail the emperor" the soldiers said.
Zion smiled, "Good job Eros, "Zion said to the leader who nodded and removed his mask only to reveal a man with a huge sacr on his face, then Zion turned to the soldires, "Get up everyone, I hope you all know why you are here."
"Yes, your majesty." the soldiers said in unison and Zion finally turned to the empress and her son, "So are you two ready."
The two nodded and smiled at the Zion, "Thank you, your majesty we are ready as well."
"My army will also arrive soon in about a week," Zion said and smiled, "And the first thing we are going to do is invade the Weixiao mansion."
