The Next Of Phoenix
Chapter 66. Acting


"How does it feel?" xiao Mingyui asked after Han Silue swallowed her homemade fish soup.


Han Silue smiled, then replied, "Very good, which restaurant did you buy this at?"


"It wasn't bought, ma'am. Princess Mingyui made it personally and this son of yours caught the fish." Fang Laowang appeared and joined the sit while putting down a bowl of rice to eat Xiao Mingyui's fish soup.


Han Silue was stunned. "really? The princess herself made it? It's amazing ...." Han Silue smiled fully, she looked very happy.


Xiao Mingyui nodded. "Furen was too complimentary, I can only make simple dishes because my late mother loved to cook."


The atmosphere of the lunch was much warmer than the atmosphere of breakfast this morning because this time Xiao Mingyui had eaten with them, Bingbing was invited to join even though the woman had been eating her food since yesterday while standing up. Not cruel, but such were the rules of a servant and master in their Imperial times. Bingbing did not feel this was a problem, she was happy and felt appreciated because Xiao Mingyui invited her to eat together. Han Silue and Fang Laowang looked no problem either.


Lunch was over, Han Silue went back to rest. After finishing tidying up all the tableware, Xiao Mingyui and Fang Laowang walked out together.


Fang Laowang bowed towards Xiao Mingyui. "Thank you very much because your majesty is willing to fulfill my request."


Xiao Mingyui nodded. "Not a big deal."


Fang Laowang smiled, then asked, "Next what noble intends to visit the Palace or directly return to Xiao Wangfu?"


Xiao Mingyui shook her head. "I intend to go to the boutique shop of the Capital City, soon the Emperor's birthday celebration will be announced."


Fang Laowang nodded. "Ah .. I understand, because I also want to buy new clothes for my mother there today."


Xiao Mingyui smiled, then? They can't go together to the boutique, can they?


Avoiding the alarming offer from Fang Laowang, Xiao Mingyui rushed up onto the carriage as he said, "Then see you again, young Master Fang. My advice you should come sooner, because it could be that the stock will run out because almost all of the noble ladies first class and two capitals buy clothes there."


Fang Laowang was surprised by that fact, he quickly climbed onto his horse and went to the same destination as Xiao Mingyui. She really wanted to buy clothes for her mother, Fang Laowang would not let Fang Jichang bring another woman to a big event while her mother was left behind.


Xiao Mingyui got off his carriage as soon as he reached the famous boutique shop. Since the beginning of the descent, he had realized that a little ahead there was the Crown Prince's horse carriage. Xiao Mingyui chose not to think too much about it, until finally when she was walking up the stairs, suddenly an extremely sweet voice danced in her ears. The voice made all the attention point towards him.


"Princess Mingyui! Jesus ... We meet here!"


Xiao Mingyui quickly turned his head, then he saw Xie Wanting who was walking hand in hand with Xiao Jiwang. Looks like they went to this boutique using the same horse carriage.


Xiao Mingyui's expression remained calm, she did not answer any of Xie Wanting's calls and only watched the two of them. Xie Wanting still said, "Today I am going to buy a new hanfu with the Crown Prince on the orders of the Emperor. The Emperor said that Mo and I were invited to attend the anniversary celebration of his representing our country. Isn't that right, your highness?" Xie Wanting then turned his head and smiled sweetly towards Xiao Jiwang who was standing beside him. Then his right hand touched Xiao Jiwang's arm, like deliberately showing off their closeness.


Looking at Xie Wanting's movements, the entire person quickly whispered. They were curious what was going on, why did the Crown Prince come to this boutique in the company of another woman? Then what about his match with Xiao Mingyui?


Xiao Jiwang smiled, then returned the hand of Xie Wanting who touched his arm while looking at Xiao Mingyui. "Right, I came here to accompany Princess Xie shopping. Princess Mingyui, please don't misunderstand."


"Misunderstand me?" xiao Mingyui asked, his lips smiling coldly. Even though he knew Xiao Jiwang and himself were acting to trap Xie Wanting, the current annoyed feeling of Xiao Mingyui was real.


Xiao Mingyui smiled deeper and deeper as his eyes looked at the figure of Fang Laowang who had just arrived and descended from the horse. The man's countenance looked puzzled as he looked at Xiao Mingyui as if he was throwing a gesture at her, but when he realized that there was Xie Wanting there, the man immediately understood her condition.


Fang Laowang rushed towards Xiao Mingyui, then bowed towards Xiao Mingyui as well as Xiao Jiwang alternately. "Hail your majesty."


Xiao Mingyui looked at Fang Laowang, then said, "Where have you been, young Master Fang? I've been waiting for you."


Fang Laowang smiled. "I'm sorry, your honor. What ... can we go straight in now to shorten the time?"


Xiao Mingyui nodded, then before she and Fang Laowang walked hand in hand towards the inner building of the boutique, Xiao Mingyui took the time to look at Xie Wanting again and said, "Thank you for worrying about me, princess Xie. But, I didn't misunderstand at all, I understand." Then he shifted his gaze to Xiao Jiwang. "Your Majesty, can I give you input?"


Xiao Jiwang nodded. "certain."


Xiao Mingyui looked back at Xie Wanting, this time there was a look of contempt in it. "Please take a closer look at your guests. If she doesn't know yet how to greet or greet a higher person, I'm willing to lend a woman's tattoo book to your guests." Then he took Fang Laowang away, leaving behind Xie Wanting who was pecking in anger. He was deeply offended by Xiao Mingyui's words, moreover now that they were being watched by many eyes.


The whispers the surrounding people were doing were getting more and more crowded, they all heard the sentence said by Xiao Mingyui. Xie Wanting really looks ridiculous in front of the boutique customers now.


Arriving inside, a shop butler approached Xiao Mingyui.


"Greetings, your highness princess Mingyui. How are you doing? Do you want to buy new clothes?" the butler of the shop was friendly.


Xiao Mingyui nodded. "I need a man and a woman in pairs."


"Eh? A-what man will wear his clothes is-"


"Yes, Xiao Wangye." Xiao Mingyui immediately cut off the butler's sentence to prevent the man from misunderstanding when he saw that it was Fang Laowang who accompanied him here.


The butler immediately laughed elegantly. "Ah ... is absolutely right, and it is very fitting that I have just made the best clothing model."


Xiao Mingyui nodded briefly, as he was about to answer something, suddenly the butler walked forward past him. Xiao Mingyui turned his head, ah .. The butler moved to Xiao Jiwang.


Fang Laowang who saw this was not so happy, the man quickly said, "Head maid, where is your manners? Princess Mingyui is talking to you."


The butler looked clumsy, he was at a loss as to what to answer as both of them had prestigious titles and backgrounds. But after all Xiao Jiwang was the Crown Prince, the successor to the throne.


Xiao Mingyui smiled faintly, then touched Fang Laowang's arm just as Xie Wanting did outside earlier. The woman wrapped her arms around Fang Laowang.


"Young Master Fang, it's okay. There are still many waiters in this shop." Xiao Mingyui smiled faintly, until the butler's assistant came forward and replaced her role.


"Your Majesty, please pass by here to see our latest outfits ...." The butler's assistant was quick to respond, he hurriedly led Xiao Mingyui and Fang Laowang to avoid any disputes and his superior was not involved in any complicated matters.


Xiao Jiwang watched Xiao Mingyui holding Fang Laowang's hand, the man's mood became very bad, but he was required to keep smiling. He really wanted to end this act! Goddamnit! Xiao Jiwang wanted to go berserk seeing the scene earlier!
