The Princess Of 100 Talents
Chapter #66

Prince Rong looked at the queen, "No queen mother, innocent mother. Mom did the fixed thing. Because at that time, if you keep doing it, it might offend me who's not being nice."

"But when mom heard that you were interested in a woman, and that it was the daughter of Madam Xia, I felt very happy. Because the two of you who were once going to be betrothed, find your own way to be together."

Prince Rong stood up and walked over to the queen, then sat down beside her.

"Mother queen, since childhood I have been attracted to a beautiful and strong-hearted woman, named Liu Lin Yao. So of course the sky doesn't let him belong to anyone else." Prince Rong said as he grabbed the queen's tangna.

The queen nodded, "Yes, you're right. The heavens have really set you up since you were very small."

"True queen mother."

The queen looked at her son happily and haru, she did not expect that prince Rong would understand. Because from the beginning the queen always felt afraid, if one day Prince Rong would be angry after knowing their matchmaking that he had canceled first.

"Alright queen mother, I have to settle the matter of master Xiao's family with the other 3 noble families. Since I wanted to on my wedding day with Lin'er, there was no problem whatsoever." Pangerna Rong.

"Yes, you go."

Prince Rong nodded, and after saluting the queen as well as princess Xiu Ying, prince Rong walked out of the king's palace.

"He was ready to be a husband." Xiu Ying's daughter's.

"Yes, you're right. I hope Li and Lin'er will live happily and always prosper."

"Yes the queen's mother."

...----------------...

Elsewhere, mister Xiao was sitting together with the 3 heads of the noble families he had helped first (the Qin, Min, and Lu families).

Together with the Xiao family advisor, and a bodyguard. Mister Xiao sat quietly in front of the three questionable people.

"Master Xiao, why are you gathering us together here?" Said the head of the Qin family.

"Right, mister Xiao. What's going on?" Said the head of the Min family.

Mister Xiao smiled, then took out the 3 papers that had once obtained the seals of the 3 families and from the emperor as well as prince Rong.

"Master Xiao, why did you issue that letter of agreement in front of us?" Said Mr. Min in surprise.

"Master Qin, master Min, and Master Lu. It's good that you remember this letter, and I hope you don't forget the contents of this letter either." Said mister Xiao.

"Of course, Mr. Xiao, we will not forget. Because you helped us first." Said mister Lu.

Mister Xiao nodded, "That's right, therefore I made this letter and asked the emperor's majesty, and also his highness Prince Rong to put a stamp on this letter after you have given your stamp on this letter."

"So, what exactly is your goal, Mr Xiao?" Said mr. Qin.

"In the letter it says, if you will never harass or even harm the members of the Xiao family, or the people that the Xiao family regards as brothers."

"Right, we still remember it. Even we also know the punishment we will receive, if we break it."

"If you know that, then give half of the wealth you have to the Xiao family. Because your family has hurt, even tried to kill my son."

The three family heads who were in front of mister Xiao were shocked, as they had absolutely no idea what mister Xiao had told them.

"Master Xiao, what do you mean? We have done absolutely nothing to young master Xiao." Said Mr. Min.

"really that? So you mean, you all don't know if your three children poisoned my son, and almost made him die?"

Again. Master Lu, master Min, and master Qin were surprised by what master Xiao said.

"You can ask your children that question. If they're evasive, I have a witness who sold them the poison."

The heads of the families stared at each other, they were not really aware that their children had committed acts that would have left their families devastated.

"Okay Mr. Xiao, I will ask our children this question, and if they do, we will definitely give them a severe punishment, and will fulfill the sentence that was in the letter." Said mr. Qin.

"Well, then I'll go now."

"Good."

Mr. Xiao, with the two people from the Xiao family he brought up and left while carrying the letter that Mr. Xiao had placed on the table.

"If they do, I will make my son feel a punishment that will make him regret it!" Sir Min said after mister Xiao left.

"True, they are brave. Though we have said that we should not offend the Xiao family." Said mister Lu.

"Better now we go back, and ask them this." Said mr. Qin.

Master Lu and master Min nodded, and they walked out of the VIP room at one of the city's restaurants.

...----------------...

"Dad, what's wrong? Why did you call me?" Said Mr. Min's son.

"Sit down, I want to talk to you."

"Good."

Master Min's son sat in front of his father, then looked at his father in confusion.

Right, after master Min met with mister Xiao and returned to his residence. He immediately asked his son to come and meet him in his room.

"Dad, what's wrong?" Ask Mr. Min's son again.

"Tell father, have you as well as the son of the Qin family, and the Lu family done anything to young master Xiao?"

Master Min's son was shocked to hear the question from his father.

"Dad, what... What do you mean dad? L am... I don't understand."

Braaaak!

"Tell me the truth!"

Master Min's son gasped at Master Min's quite loud voice, and his eyes were so sharp.

"Dad.... I'm..."

"You really have the courage! Are you tired of living comfortably?"

Back Mr. Min's voice rose, seeing the reaction of his son who showed his fear. Because what he had done together with the other two noble children, had been known by his father.

"Father, within the city young master Xiao has long been in power. We're just....."

Plaaac!

"Please! I've told you and others how our family was helped by the Xiao family back then, they deserve that, because they have helped people a lot!" Robert Min cried after slapping his son's cheek hard.

Master Min's son could only remain silent, both of his hands clenched. Because of course he did not accept if he was angry even at being hit by his father, just for doing so to young master Xiao who had mastered the business in the market, he said, and especially since young master Xiao had already made one of the princesses of master Lu whom he liked, interested in him.
