The Next Of Phoenix
Chapter 62. We're Friends ... Don't you?

Fang Laowang got off his horse, he had just returned from the market to buy food and drinks. When he was about to open the door of his simple house, his movement stopped because he heard the sound of happy laughter full of joy belonging to his mother.

"Princess Mingyui, you are a very pleasant interlocutor!"

Fang Laowang was stunned. His mother and Xiao Mingyui spoke very intimately in such a short time? Fang Laowang's lips twitched thinly, he was happy to finally be able to hear his mother's happy laughter again even though it was because of Xiao Mingyui.

Fang Laowang opened the door of his house, the first sight he saw was Xiao Mingyui and his mother who were sitting close together while smiling happily together. And before long Xiao Mingyui turned his head with a faint smile. "You've come back?"

The deg!

Fang Laowang again thumped, then he regained his senses from his daydream and bowed briefly. "Yes, your honor." Then he placed his groceries on the table, the myriad of expensive foods and drinks that Fang Laowang had bought.

Which made Fang Laowang fixated earlier because of the warm atmosphere he saw, it was like .. a happy little family. He had just returned home from work and was warmly welcomed by his wife and mother.

Fang Laowang shook his head briefly silently, trying to resuscitate himself and recalled the painful incident last night.

The three of them ate together in the living room, even Bingbing was invited to join. The atmosphere was really warm, Han Silue and Fang Laowang looked very happy. If it was possible to tell the facts ..this kind of warm moment was what Fang Laowang had coveted, he wanted to have a warm and happy family. That's all, is it that hard?

They continued to talk until Han Silue finally had to rest. Xiao Mingyui and Fang Laowang together personally escorted Han Silue to her room. After Han Silue managed to rest, the two of them returned to the living room.

"Thank you very much, your majesty. I'll take you back to-"

"No need, young master Fang. I can return independently, thank you very much." Xiao Mingyui refused subtly.

Fang Laowang nodded, understanding. "Then let me take you to the carriage."

Xiao Mingyui nodded in agreement, as Xiao Mingyui was about to step closer to the carriage, Fang Laowang called out to him again, making Xiao Mingyui's footsteps stifled.

"Your majesty."

Xiao Mingyui turned. "Is there still something else, young Master Fang?"

Fang Laowang bowed deeply abruptly, leaving Xiao Mingyui puzzled. "I have one wish."

Xiao Mingyui nodded briefly. "Say."

"I know this is very presumptuous and will trouble your majesty, but .. This is for my mother's sake. Your Majesty, please come here more often. My mother looks happy when she is with you, and I .. I want to see her cheerful smile again." Fang Laowang said that solemnly, both of his hands clenched at the side. He swore saying this was purely for his mother, with absolutely no ego or his feelings interfering.

Xiao Mingyui was silent for a moment. They both ... Fang Laowang and Han Silue, they truly loved each other. The two of them begged Xiao Mingyui to be happy with each other.

Seeing that Xiao Mingyui was just silently staring at him, Fang Laowang continued speaking. "Your majesty, I swear when I say this is purely for my mother. I'm not at all mixing my plea of this one with the problem of last night."

Not yet Xiao Mingyui retorted, suddenly Bingbing approached and gave a white paper fold towards her.

"Your majesty."

Xiao Mingyui took the letter first, then read it. When he saw the contents, he learned that these were from the Palace sent using birds. The Emperor called him to the Palace using a letter like this? This call is no ordinary call.

Xiao Mingyui folded the letter again, then kept it and looked at Fang Laowang again.

Xiao Mingyui extended her right hand towards Fang Laowang who was still kneeling, making the man slightly surprised and raising his head.

"Uprise up, young Master Fang. To be honest, I am deeply moved by your love for each other. Young master Fang, I have forgotten about the incident last night, but that does not mean I take you for granted. I appreciate everything you said last night, thank you and sorry. In return, I will approve your request. Of course, I'll bully him, because we're friends ... right?" xiao Mingyui said, smiling.

Fang Laowang was stunned, then he returned Xiao Mingyui's helping hand and stood up straight again. Her lips smiled happily even though her heart was slightly hurt due to her love that clapped one hand, however .. This situation was better than her and Xiao Mingyui had to hate each other.

"of course. I swear to be loyal to you and Xiao Wangfu and this Empire." Fang Laowang shook Xiao Mingyui's hand tightly, the two of them smiling in satisfaction.

"If I fail to become your lover, let me be someone who stays with you at least to carve out the peace of this world, Xiao Mingyui." Inner Fang Laowang, his forehead slightly folded solemnly as he said this in his heart.

Meanwhile in the Palace, Xiao Jihuang's workroom, the atmosphere was being slightly stiffened.

Xiao Jiwang, Xiao Xiangqing, the two of them had already been there first. Until Xiao Mingyui finally came, the four of them started having discussions.

"There's something fishy in that Southeast Huan representative's daughter." Xiao Jihuang and Xiao Jiwang's faces looked bad, the father and son seemed to be going through the same problem.

"Is something going on?" xiao Mingyui asked.

Xiao Jihuang nodded. "It was only recently discovered the poison content in Wu Guifei's room-scenting incense. There was a servant who testified that she saw princess Xie Wanting in the middle of the night in the palace incense storage warehouse."

Xiao Mingyui who heard this quickly glanced at his sister. "Xiao Wangye, have you told the Emperor what we got last night?" Xiao Mingyui used a formal manner of speaking to his sister in the presence of Xiao Jihuang.

Xiao Xiangqing shook his head, then began to tell him what they had obtained last night. As soon as Xiao Xiangqing finished explaining, Xiao Jihuang picked up the brush on her desk and slammed it onto the floor.

"Laughs! They dare to touch zhen's wife!" Xiao Jihuang looked extremely angry, Xiao Mingyui who saw this quickly poured water into Xiao Jihuang's cup and served it to the man.

"Your Majesty, calm yourself. I, Xiao Wangye, and the Crown Prince will help you" Xiao Mingyui said.

When Xiao Jihuang started to calm down again, Xiao Mingyui spoke again, "Good news, we have a new 'friend."

"New friend?" xiao Xiangqing asked confusedly.

Xiao Mingyui nodded. "Today I had time to visit the old temple located in the North corner of the Capital City. I accidentally met Young Master Fang there, then he invited me to discuss and offer cooperation."

"No. What if it's a trap?" Xiao Jiwang being the first to oppose, he seemed to be very dislikeful of Fang Laowang, I don't know what the problem was. Only that man knows.

Xiao Mingyui shook her head, her eyes staring at Xiao Jiwang. "No, your honor. I have Young Master Fang's death card, that man won't dare to do anything." Then Xiao Mingyui silently looked at the three men before him waiting for a response.

"I don't agree." Xiao Jiwang remained stubborn, his countenance grim each time discussing Fang Laowang.

"I agree."

"Zhen agreed."

Xiao Mingyui smiled, then looked at Xiao Jiwang again. "How, your honor? Two agree and one does not, I will certainly take the most votes."

"You-you!!"

"Crown silk, where's the harm? Isn't that a very good thing? We can know the secrets of the enemy so that it is easy to fight back or make a defense." Xiao Jihuang looked at her son's astonishment, nor did she understand what made Xiao Jiwang refuse.

Xiao Jiwang clucked in annoyance, then said, "Yes, alright!" Then his eyes looked at Xiao Mingyui, his gaze seemingly holding something back to reveal.

"Young Master Fang has also verified the rebellion his family will be carrying out as well as the Southeast Huan Kingdom. Your Majesty, the decision to go to war is not in your hands" Xiao Mingyui said.

Xiao Xiangqing and the Crown Prince's countenance were much more serious, because if war broke out, they would both have to jump straight into the war. Especially Xiao Xiangqing, he was already definitely the great leader of the army. And Xiao Jiwang? The man was the successor to the throne, he would become the war leader if Xiao Jihuang was indeed willing to let his successor go to war. The possibility of the man fighting is still in question.

Xiao Jihuang looked at the three high-ranking successors of the Empire, then said, "We can't suddenly declare war, hence, it, move faster to find evidence of Princess Xie Wanting's actions and evidence of the rebellion the Fang family wanted to carry out. Zhen will split the task up to the three of you."

Xiao Mingyui, Xiao Xiangqing, and Xiao Jiwang nodded.

"Okay, your honor." The three of them bowed and said that in unison.
