REINCARNATION: TRAPPED IN THE WRONG BODY
CHAPTER 59. The Royal Peace Envoys of Xi Xia, Bei Ming, and Nan Yun.
***Dong Wang Royal Palace Hall***
The attention of Princess Xing Xing who had originally looked at Zhong Min was distracted by Zhong Li aka King who was walking slowly while being led by Hercules towards him, more precisely towards Princess Jing Mi.
Princess Xing Xing instantly paid no heed to Zhong Min. His eyes stared in awe at Zhong Li's body from head to toe. Princess Jing Mi's battle robe attached to Zhong Li's white attire made her look even more dashing and macho.
If Zhong Li was not blind, Princess Xing Xing could ensure that Zhong Li would become a great and powerful general like his father, General Zhong Guo.
Princess Xing Xing was astonished by Zhong Li's obvious physical changes. Though only about two weeks from the time of dinner at the palace. Very unreasonable, Zhong Li's physique could change that fast and instead the change was heading in a better direction.
How about after a few days or a week, Zhong Li became even more attractive?
"Zhong Li's! You've been blind your whole life!" Princess Xing Xing cussed at Zhong Li in her heart.
Princess Xing Xing was confident she would be shocked and depressed if Zhong Li's eyes were suddenly healed by someone else. Princess Xing Xing did not want Zhong Li to be the perfect man later on was Princess Jing Mi's husband so Princess Xing Xing Cussed on Zhong Li in her heart.
King sat next to Princess Jing Mi calmly and eyes blank. King was monitoring the seating arrangements at a glance now.
King realized his seat was on the right of Emperor Wang's throne. The ones sitting in line with her were royal relatives including Princess Jing Mi and Princess Xing Xing.
Meanwhile, the row of seats in front of him was still empty. There were some mandarin inscriptions on the table opposite him, which King certainly did not understand.
Ming Lan sat in the opposite row with an empty seat beside her. The King guessed that it was a seat prepared for General Zhong Guo, while the empty seat with mandarin inscriptions on the table, the King guessed it must have been a seat for the envoy of Xi Xia Kingdom, Bei Ming Kingdom, and Nan Yun Kingdom.
Every two people sit at the same table, be it spouses, lovers, and unpaired ones are placed in adjoining seats.
Zhong Min was already betrothed to Princess Xing Xing so they sat side by side, whereas King was definitely sitting side by side with Princess Jing Mi since Zhong Li was already betrothed to Princess Jing Mi.
Prince Xu Feng and Bai Hu sat side by side and were at a place not far from the King.
King glanced at Princess Jing Mi with his blank eyes and was astonished. Princess Jing Mi was still wearing an iron mask to cover the wound on her face.
King asked Xena when Princess Jing Mi's face healed. Xena gave an answer that the wound on Princess Jing Mi's face would disappear after using the snow lotus flower potion she had made for one week. So the wound on Princess Jing Mi's face should have healed by now.
King suspects Princess Jing Mi has her own reasons for still wearing her face mask so King doesn't mind her.

Princess Jing Mi looked towards King who was acting professionally with blank eyes so used telepathy to talk to King.
"I can feel your inner strength rising."
King heard clearly Princess Jing Mi's voice through telepathy sent by Princess Jing Mi.
"All because of Princess Jing Mi's teaching!" king answered by telepathy.
"General Zhong Guo must be proud of you," Princess Jing Mi said by telepathy.
"Thank you!"
The two of them chatted over telepathically without anyone noticing.
***
The loud voice of Aunt Wang echoed inside the palace hall so that everyone who was inside the palace hall, immediately stood up to pay their respects. Of course Hercules helped get King Sari to his seat.
Emperor Wang walked into the palace hall followed by Aunt Wang and immediately sat on the throne.
"Sit down!" emperor Wang's Order.
Everyone who stood upright in the palace hall, sat down to their respective seats. Hercules advanced and helped King to sit back.
The atmosphere of the palace hall became calm. They were waiting for news from the palace guards about the arrival of General Zhong Guo along with peace envoys from Xi Xia Kingdom, Bei Ming Kingdom, and Nan Yun Kingdom.
A few moments later came the sound of horse racing and the clattering of very loud feet from outside the palace hall. The King's strong sense of hearing suspected that there were hundreds of horses and thousands of soldiers who had already arrived outside the palace hall.
The loud and long sound of a 'suona' echoed from outside the palace hall. Emperor Wang smiled broadly at the sound of a 'suona'. Even Princess Jing Mi smiled faintly and spoke through telepathy to King.

"Your father has arrived!" princess Jing Mi said through telepathy.

"Greetings to General Zhong Guo and the peace envoys from Xi Xia Kingdom, Bei Ming Kingdom, and Nan Yun Kingdom." Once again Aunt Wang's voice echoed within the palace hall.
King held his thumbs up in his heart against Aunt Wang's large and distinctive voice. King was convinced that if Aunt Wang lived in King's original world, Aunt Wang could become a successful and famous opera singer.
A grown man walked firmly into the palace hall. The man was wearing a silver-colored armor with a long sword in his right hand. The man's eyes were very sharp and his skin color was a bit brownish as it often led troops to fight in the open.
The man was about forty years old with a tall and large body. The man was General Zhong Guo, the father of Zhong Li and Zhong Min.
"Dad!" said King's heart.
King felt the feeling of his heart being deeply touched by the appearance of General Zhong Guo before his eyes. Perhaps because the original Zhong Li missed his father so much that he was often outside to fight so that King had a sensitive feeling and even almost shed tears.
Zhong Li's fragments of memories of General Zhong Guo appeared in King's mind. Inside the memory piece, King could feel General Zhong Guo very fond of Zhong Li and held great hope for Zhong Li as his successor.
The figure of General Zhong Guo reminds King of Pak Jaka, the owner of Jaka Orphanage, the person who nurtured him since childhood. Mr. Jaka who died young due to severe illness before King could return the favor to him. King had considered Pak Jaka as his real father so now King was determined to realize the desire of General Zhong Guo and Zhong Li himself to become a strong war general.
Meanwhile behind General Zhong Guo lined up neatly envoys from Xi Xia Kingdom, Bei Ming Kingdom, and Nan Yun Kingdom. The three kingdoms sent two emissaries from their respective kingdoms, who wore the best clothes typical of their kingdoms.
