Yu going crazy with jealousy >u<!<br /><br />Uncle has too much pride to run away and relocate the capital! Which I can respect. Yu will definitely not back away from the war - he needs to win in order to get the throne.<br /><br />Yes, once the old geezer is back, the puzzle pieces will start falling into place...and the mysteries will unravel.<br /><br />Awww~ that would be so cute, wouldn't it! <3<br /><br />^^ I'll be waiting~Thank you for reading and commenting!ayszhanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13409384398450330359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246792668768018187.post-59961771875190997492015-02-16T02:13:08.980-05:002015-02-16T02:13:08.980-05:00Haha, I knew it!

I bet they're really important charas for the story theyy are GG after all.<br /><br />Once Yu kniows about this woman, all hell will break loose! He will be also shocked because Xin was back in his own country. how dramatic it qould be if tjese two met again.<br /><br />Uncle really wants to wage war,huh? hmm, Yu will not falter from it. the war between the two will now happen. I wonder what kind of scenes wiould take place...<br /><br /> <br />qnd yeah, Master Liao is one asy geezer. I know he's hiding something big! He's the key to our unanswered questions.<br /><br />I wish Xin will exchange jades with Yi ,as well. they can see it as their wedding bands.hahah<br /><br />-Mai. had a date with fab fam last V-Day. will be commentin to the new oneshot.

Yeah, it was quit...Long comment! *eyes go wide* 8D<br /><br />Yeah, it was quite swift, wasn't it! I can't believe they transported him in a coffin though :s I'm glad Han Xin isn't claustrophobic! (lol)<br /><br />Indeed, very interestin :3 Song Ruoming and Pei Yuan are going to play crucial, if not major, roles in the following arc.<br /><br />Hehe...we'll be seeing more of his 'Duchess' too ;) *cough*nextchapter*cough*<br /><br />You would be correct! Murong will be on Han Xin' mind the whole time though :')<br /><br />Yeah dune=sands, frore=cold. The literal translation of the title would be 'cold sands on the desert'. I had thought that desert=sand so I omitted the desert part, but after more exploration I found that 'beyond' fits well with the ending of the story. So you won't be encountering these frore dunes any time soon.<br />Anyways ^u^ I'm glad you like the story~ Thank you for thesupport!ayszhanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13409384398450330359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246792668768018187.post-86551123094073369872015-02-15T14:24:21.973-05:002015-02-15T14:24:21.973-05:00Thank you for the fine reading and congratulations...Thank you for the fine reading and congratulations with finishing The Water Goes Drip-Drop!<br /><br />Wow, that was swift. I thought that Han Xin would run&hide and then Master Liao would trace him and call to arms but the poor guy did not get even the slightest chance to breathe the air of freedom! They treated him as an asset / instrument; not very subtle and, in my opinion, quite insensitive.<br /><br />It was amusing to get a glimpse of Han Xin’s metropolitan life. How providential for and thoughtful of him to have friends in both scholar and martial worlds. I do hope they will support and follow him when the time comes.<br /><br />So, he has his own “Duchess” and he has “never touched her” either! Oh, those guys…<br /><br />Han Xin got his pendant back (just as I thought and (sorry but I have to mention, and wrote)!<br /><br />I would give at least ten chapters before the next meeting of Han Xin and Murong Yu.<br /><br />By the way, I voted for “Beyond the Frore Dunes (Cold Sands)” title (always glad to support something fancier ;)) ), although it does not seem that my voice will matter. “Cold Sands” has always sounded for me as something doomed, while “Beyond the Frore Dunes” speaks of overcoming something and leaving it behind for good. May I assume that originally you translated Dunes as Sands, does it mean then that Frore corresponds to Cold or are there other meanings? More importantly, when are we supposed to “encounter” these Frore Dunes?<br /><br />Thank you again.<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246792668768018187.post-76983204040252678252015-02-13T14:33:45.191-05:002015-02-13T14:33:45.191-05:00NOOO MOMYYY!!!!!! i'm tired of resting, i feel...NOOO MOMYYY!!!!!! i'm tired of resting, i feel like i'm sleeping but at the same time i'm awake aghh i'll go rest later.. not now totally not now.<br /><br />no worries you didn't let any spoiler out it is as obvious as the sun that his uncle is 'hiding' something, the thing i want to know is wHAT IS IT THAT HE IS HIDING ?????? i wanna knowwwwwwwww....<br /><br />>< cruel world.. and i thought we would be respected a little, whatever i'd rather be a man.. men do all the adventure anyway, like they can join military and fight real good .. they are tough and if you meet me i could be blown 2 rounds around the world with just one push !!!!!!!!!!! how weak is that!!!!! it's just that men always have all the fun stuff while i'm stuck here at home reading novels and manga.. like japanese peaple say an 'Otaku', and the problem isn't being an otaku it is actually being 'proud' of being and otaku !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />howmuch i envy you men, you lucky beings >< (all that was a compliment soo don't get mad)<br /><br />you know the thing i like the most about ancient is the clothing and the king and queen thing.. it's just soo cool..<br /><br />ohhh yeah, the tenser the bettee... i'll be waiting.. see you ^^Nii sanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07917176016372452713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8246792668768018187.post-23086702191238086212015-02-13T14:15:24.709-05:002015-02-13T14:15:24.709-05:00Oh noo!

Han X...Oh noo! Eat some meds and get lots of rest!<br /><br />Han Xin just doesn't communicate well with his uncle, in part because his uncle is indeed hiding something (oh no did I just let a spoiler slip?)<br /><br />>< I don't think you would wanna be a woman back then. Ever since around first century, the status of women has been below men. More on this in future chapters!<br /><br />Yeah! Everything is cool when it's ancient XDDD<br /><br />We've been missing the old geezer for a while now..I think 7 or 8 chapters? But he will be back ;) He has a special part in Han Xin's future.<br />And yay!
