Sheng Li, Wang Hao, and Hu Jingguo had stopped for their breakfasts in a restaurant. They were in disguise. The table around which they were seated was isolated from the rest. Sheng Li took out the paper, brush, and a bamboo inkpot from his pocket.

"Are you writing a letter for her?" Hu Jingguo queried.

"Yes. Now, look away," Sheng Li ordered him. Wang Hao, on the other hand, went to take their meals. Hu Jingguo turned his back towards Sheng Li and told him to write quickly. Sheng Li dipped the brush in the ink and started writing on the paper.

"Write about me as well," Hu Jingguo stated.

"No. It's my personal letter to her. I cannot put your name in this. You can write a separate letter for her," Sheng Li asserted and continued writing.

"Really?" Hu Jingguo was happy that he got permission. "Are you not jealous of me anymore?" He asked, keeping a grin on his face.

"I told you many times that I was not jealous. I was irked," Sheng Li answered while writing as many words as he could in the letter for Ying Lili.

Chuckling, Hu Jingguo said, "I think you do not know the meaning of getting 'jealous'. You are such an intransigent person. When a person annoys you because he is close to your wife, then that's jealousy." Hu Jingguo's both elbows and back were resting against the table. He turned to look at Sheng Li, who hit his head with the brush in his hand.

"I told you not to look back!" Sheng Li scolded Hu Jingguo who had turned away and was caressing his head.

"You can shower your love on your wife once we will be there. What are you even writing on this tiny piece of paper?" Hu Jingguo was turning impatient.

"Will you shut your mouth or shall I throw you out?" Sheng Li questioned him. Hu Jingguo sighed and stopped talking. Wang Hao came with a tray in his hand and placed it on the table. Sheng Li had folded the letter and asked Wang Hao to deliver it to Luoyang.

"Her highness will receive the letter by tonight," Wang Hao informed Sheng Li, who nodded. Hu Jingguo turned to them and asked Sheng Li for a paper. He took out a paper from his pocket while Wang Hao took his seat beside Hu Jingguo.

"My hand is aching from holding the reins for too long. Could you please write a letter from my side to my friend?" Hu Jingguo asked and looked at his right hand. "Ahh," he faked a cry while pressing his fingers.

"I will write," Wang Hao offered help, but Hu Jingguo refused.

"I want him to write for me," Hu Jingguo stated while gazing at Sheng Li, who could see through his tricks but he did not say anything to him.

"Speak. What do you want me to write?" Sheng Li questioned him.

"Hmm." "My Dear Friend-" he paused because Sheng Li scowled at him. "What happened? Write quickly. Our breakfast is getting cold," Hu Jingguo stated while grinning.

Sheng Li looked at the paper and wrote, "Friend, we three are safe. Do not worry about us." Hu Jingguo tried to stop Sheng Li who started to write whatever came to his mind. "Don't write this. Write my words," Hu Jingguo requested Sheng Li, who did not listen to him. After finishing, Sheng Li let it dry before handing it to Wang Hao.

"No, I want to write a separate one. He wrote those things which I never say," Hu Jingguo stated and narrowly gazed at Sheng Li. "Your actions tell your jealousy level!" He remarked.

Sheng Li snickered. "Be happy that it is not jealousy else your tongue would have been in your hand, by now!" Sheng Li pronounced.

Wang Hao smiled as he found that the Crown Prince was indeed jealous of Hu Jingguo, but was afraid to accept. The Crown Prince who never used to listen had not only turned patient around the Crown Princess but also around them.

They had their breakfast and left the restaurant. Wang Hao went to the check post first and delivered the letter there. "Send it safely to the Crown Princess. No one shall find out from where it was sent," Wang Hao told the delivery agent who nodded before hopping on a horse. Wang Hao then came back to the place where Sheng Li and Hu Jingguo were waiting for him.

"Your highness, I delivered them to the agent," Wang Hao informed the Crown Prince.

"Hmm. By night, we will be at the Borders of Northern Province. From there, it will take a day to reach the remote village. Be aware of your surroundings. The army will be there soon. Hu Jingguo, you might have won against people but it's not some competition so, stay away from all this. Do not try to act courageous," Sheng Li warned him.

"Do you want me to stay and watch?" Hu Jingguo queried him.

"Yes. You are here because you are a Physician. That is why if I say run then run away don't look back. Wang Hao and I have been in this situation many times, so we know how to escape," Sheng Li pronounced.

"I love my life," Hu Jingguo affirmed, placing his hand on his chest. "I will run away if something bad happens. Do not scold me later for not helping and running away like a coward," Hu Jingguo stated and put his hand down.

"I will not scold you as long as you follow my orders," Sheng Li replied. "Let's go then. We will now take the rest near the borders," Sheng Li proclaimed. He pulled the reins on Kongqi, which started running. Wang Hao and Hu Jingguo followed him up.

"I do not know why I have a strange feeling. I never felt this way, but it seems something bad will happen. I feel I should not have brought Jingguo with me," Sheng Li thought while riding.
