War Prisoner Chapter 9

Zi Nan and Zi Liu were anxious to the point that they pinched and urged her: “What’s going on, you should tell us something at least?” Zi Nong then retold them the scene in the death row prison, and finally made a given up gesture said: “What do you think, how we should approach this?”

The trio and Zi Yan, who is currently fighting in Qi with Yu Cang, are Wan Yan Xu’s most beloved servants. They were smart and masters in martial arts; hence, their ranks were much more than simple maidservants.  After hearing the situation, they have no idea what to do. Disorderly discussed for a while, but still nothing had changed. Zi Liu hastily exclaimed: “Why are we still discussing about this? If we are continuing, there would be nothing left of Su General’s bones.”
.

.
Zi Nong pouted and said: “Will there be any bones left even we were not discussing about it? No matter how we are going to a.n.a.lyse, we still are only our King’s servants. We’re not Su General. Though he was pitiful, our loyal is with His Majesty. Since when the King decided this course of action, we …… we do not have the position and the power to stop it. Moreover …… what’s the point of forestalling it? It’s quite useless given the King’s temperament; you should already know this.”

The trio looked at each other although they knew Zi Nong’s speech may sound foolish, but it was the reality and could not help feeling slumped down. Zi Nan said: “What does he look like? I heard he’s only frail, not like the usual rough and forthright type General. How could three thousand beauties in the palace not pleased His Majesty, but him? I must see the man for myself one day.”

There, the trio discussed the incredible possibility in account of their King’s preference. Wan Yan Xu, who saw injured Su Yi’s body, did not rush to force the other man. He was not a hot headed man, but took things slowly even with intimacy, in order to experience the most pleasure out of it. Otherwise, like a pig (Zhu Bajie in Monkey Magic) that gulped a fruit in general, with only momentary gratification, but was dull without flavour. This thought was very consistent with his disposition. At this point, the other man in his eyes has become very thin, and seems to be easily slaughtered as his mind started to contemplate several ways in order to have fun with him.

.
Su Yi has remained alone in the Royal Study Room. He found that the place was quiet and serene, not a torture room since there was not even a single rope insight, ‘how will he interrogate a prisoner. Does he still want to use that persuasion strategy,’ he looked at the other man’s expressionless face, without slightest smile but maybe there is a hint of it.
.

.
He was puzzled over Wan Yan Xu’s intention and was surprised to find that he has come over; the determined eyes were focused on his, suddenly, he deeply chuckled: “Su general, these last few days, you had been mistreated. I feared you had not even showered. Look at this body, blood stains are everywhere. This truly is not consistent with your n.o.ble character. Alas, it is my negligence, but does not matter. I can compensate this overlooked matter, do follow me.” Then with one punch, the force had broken the chain in half as he pulled Su Yi along at the back of Royal Study Room.

.
Su Yi felt even more clueless about what the other man’s intentions were, though they are adversarial stance, so he stood motionless and not moving an inch. In reality, he suffered a lot of tortures with little rest. Thus, his strength has long gone, but with the sheered will of unyielding has stopped him to find support. Wan Yan Xu was a little surprised but chuckled: “You actually still have some strength left; truly amazing, even better.”Wan Yan Xu finished as he tucked the hair away from his forehead. Suddenly, with one arm wrapped around his waist and picked him up, hastily walked to the backroom. While he walked, he said: “Su General, I have never carried anyone else before, even my favourite concubines. You should feel honoured.”
.

.
Su Yi was surprised, for this is no trivial matter. Although he was not knowledgeable in regards of s.e.xuality, but knew that this carrying was somewhat wrong. Moreover, Wan Yan Xu was parring him with his concubines. Subsequently, with this line of thought, the intention seems to be very obvious. Nevertheless, he does not understand even with his former appearance that was a hundred times more attractive than now, had unmoved Wan Yan Xu. ‘Why does he desire the present body that is covered in filth?’ Besides, he had never heard this young Emperor ever caring for a male partner before. ‘Am I being too suspicious? But …… but……’

.
Su Yi’s silent had killed Wan Yan Xu’s amus.e.m.e.nt. Of course, in case of his courtiers, some would not be panicking in such situation but to be nonchalant like Su Yi, then there is none. Even Yu Cang, who’s also a great warrior, though compared to Su Yi, would be a little off the mark in reaction. However, he did not know. In fact, Su Yi had no idea of what his intentions are. The other man did not want to overly interpret those words; seems to be vulgar by doing so.
.

.
When they entered the backroom, there really was a large pool, surrounded by heavy crimson curtains. At a distance, vapours curled upward due to transpiration of heat. Wan Yan Xu was not into pleasures in life, so this pool was not as grand as the one in Qi’s palace, magnificently built but with rather striking formal layout. Several handmaids have knelt down and were waiting for them. Wan Yan Xu gestured for them to leave, “If I am not calling for you, then do not come disturb me.”
.

.
Su Yi felt slightly shaken over the whole thing. Wan Yan Xu’s statement was very ambiguous, even those handmaids looked at him in amazement, ‘could it be…I have unfortunately guessed it right?’ He could not convince himself that is was a possibility because of what he knew about Wan Yan Xu’s personality, ‘the other man had never done that kind of thing.’
