TGCF react to future and past

~1~

Xie lian and hua cheng sat together with lovi on the left side of xie lian, hua cheng on right.

"let's begin" she said as black screen glowed showing the title.

'Poking the ghost king, crown prince seeks answers'

"WAIT WHATTT??" feng xin screamed looking at xie lian as if he's seen a ghost. Xie lian eyes widened when he remembered what he did in puqi shrine. He nervously smiled at feng xin before saying in hushed voice.
"can't we skip this part? It's kinda embarrassing haha"

"alright your highness, then we'll watch future events" lovi said changing the scene.

'In the palace of divine might'

After running around from Mount Yugin and banyue pass xie lian lays paralyzed in puqi shrine. If not for the kindness of some villagers who bought some buns and fruits as offerings xie lian would've stayed  on that straw mat for several more days. After spending few more days staying in shrine he received a message from ling wen: return to heavens at once.

By the sound of her voice it seemed something bad is about to go down.
"it is about banyue pass?"
"yes your highness, when you arrive come to the palace of divine might" palace of divine might means emperor is back.

After two days he hiked up to heavens. Making his way to the palace of divine might.

"Gege you should've rested more"
Xie lian just smiled at that.

Walking down the roads of heaven xie lian could see many other officials walking ten feets behind him if he stops they would stop too.
Ignoring him like disease. Well...he wasn't even surprised at that considering he dragged down newly assended general pei junior. Just as he was walking he heard someone "Your highness" someone actually called him? Just when he turned around a junior officials runs past him.

"your highness how can you forget main thing? How are you even gonna enter in palace of divine might?"

'ofcourse in all heavens i'm not the one anyone wants' there are other crown princes in the heavens so confusion on this matter isn't that awkward.

'that sounds tough' shi qingxuan thought glancing at xie lian.

When he glanced at the other crown prince he paused. This young man has strong brows, gentle face and bright smile. His smile different from other heavenly officials kind and sincere that added childlike innocence on his demeanor. As if feeling the stare that crown prince turned around looking at xie lian "greetings your highness" xie lian says bowing respectfully.

That young man probably didn't mind everyday details and flashed him a bright smile shouting "Greetings" that junior official saw xie lian and his face dropped immediately. He gave him subtle push "come your highness you're gonna be late"

Just as two left, murmurs and whispers could be heard in the air.
"well that sure was awkward"
"it was only inevitable; they're both officials in heaven its only a matter of time before they met"
"such a small world. Look at those two even tho they're both crown prince only tai hua is truly noble one, he would never do those things even if he fell from grace"
"general nan feng and general xuan zen bumping into each other is more exciting matter"

It's not a new thing for xie lian he just started walking again when another voice called from behind. "your highness"

Oh please not again he thought turning around. This time it was indeed someone addressing him.
