The Princess Story's
Ep 221s. Mysterious knock
"Mrs Long need not worry, I will pretend not to see today's events. Since Mrs Long still has a lot of work to do, I say goodbye first." said King Wei.
In a split second, King Wei's shadow disappeared from that place. Gu Bei Yin let out a long sigh, since earlier he felt tense from facing the war god who was disinclined by everyone.
"Thankfully it all ended well. I must immediately obliterate all evidence of the crimes committed by Long Au Ping before anyone examines them." Inner Gu Bei Yin.
"The fire!!!"
"The fire!!!"
The cries of the servants were heard all over the place within the Long residence. The fire that the Eagle Army had ignited had arrived in front of the pavilion. All the servants were busy putting out the fire with well water.
While Gu Bei Yin only looked with a cold gaze and a mind filled with many questions.
"Has King Wei caused this fire?"
"What does the mastermind of this fire want to cover?"
"How do I cover the dungeon's whereabouts?"
"The more I think about it, the more I'm sure that this family should be wiped out from its root." Inner Gu Bei Yin.
*****
Yu and the Eagle Army had arrived at an empty residence. The house is usually used as a hiding place.
The newly released girls from prison joined the residence for a while until they were returned to their families.
"Zhu Zhu, find some healers who can keep their mouths shut, bring them here to take care of this woman!" yu's orders to one of the servants.
Zhu Zhu nodded then came out carrying out the order.
Yu was about to walk out, Cu Ye Lie immediately approached Yu and asked, "Can I stay here? I can be your servant. Please let me stay here."
"This matter I cannot decide, wait until the morning, the owner of this residence will be here at that time. Miss please rest while waiting!" answer Yu.

King Wei returned to the residence, he lay down next to Se Se who had fallen into a deep sleep then hugged her after slowly peeling her forehead.
"The task is done perfectly." whispered King Wei to Se Se's ear.
Before the day started to light up, the sound of knocking on the door in Se Se's room started to sound again. This time King Wei with Se Se heard the knocking sound of the door.
Se Se and King Wei woke up together when the door was knocked, King Wei then asked, "Who?"
"...."
"Who's out there?"
"...."
There is no outside answer.
"Tok Tok Tok!"
"Tok Tok Tok!"
"Tok Tok Tok!"
Se Se and King Wei stared at each other, a curious and upset look on King Wei's face that began to be disturbed by the sound of knocking on the door.
King Wei got off the bed, he walked towards the door then opened the door quickly.
"Who's there?" ask King Wei.
There was no one behind the door. King Wei walked out, glanced to the right and left looking for the whereabouts of someone who might have been the perpetrator of the early morning commotion today, but no one was found there.
King Wei closed the door of the room, he again lay next to Se Se with a sour face as his sleep was disturbed.
"Don't be angry on this beautiful morning!" pinta Se Se while hugging King Wei.
"Yes, it has been a few days for this room to have guests who are like the wind. He always knocks on the door but never shows the trunk of his nose." replied Se Se.
"I will send guards to stand guard at the door!" said King Wei.
"No need, I don't think he's anything dangerous. Maybe he just can't show himself at the moment. I also wonder who knocked on that door, if there were guards outside, maybe he wouldn't come anymore. At that time, I may never know who the mysterious person is" Se Se said.
"Alright, but you have to be careful!" said King Wei with his eyes closed.
"Tok Tok Tok!"
"This jerk!" as King Wei was annoyed as he ran towards the door.
King Wei reopened the door, but still found no one there.
Se Se smiled anxiously at King Wei's behavior. He got up from the bed then walked to the side of King Wei.
"If there is something you want to say, then meet me directly" Se Se said as he looked up at the sky.
King Wei looked at his wife, "Do you suspect someone?" ask King Wei.
"No, not a person but a bird" Se Se replied.
"Birds???" said King Wei with a confused face.
"Yes, a timid bird." Se Se replied with a big smile.
"Hey human! I'm a Phoenix not a bird!" a voice sounded from above the sky.
King Wei stared at the sound, a red bird surrounded by flames was seen flying down from the sky.
"Man! You really think I'm a bird, huh?" phoenix said with an annoyed face.
"It turns out it was just a bird that had been bothering me to rest!" se Se said with a smile laughing at Phoenix.
"I am a Phoenix! Phoenixes!! Not birds!" phoenix shouted while flapping its wings.
"Haha... Well, great Phoenix, what are your needs here?" se Se asked after laughing gauntly at the phoenix's behavior.
"Huhmmmhmm... It's good if you know I'm the great Phoenix!" said the arrogant Phoenix.
"So what do you want ugly birds?" asked King Wei annoyed.
"I am a Phoenix! Not a bad bird! You're the ugly one! All your exits are ugly!" shouted Phoenix.
Se Se just laughed at Phoenix's childish behavior despite being over hundreds of years old.
"Ehem ahem's... Man, I want to make a contract with you!" the Phoenix said after a moment of annoyance staring at King Wei.
"Contract? Whatchu mean?" ask Se Se.
"Contract humans with mystical beings!" said Phoenix.
"Sorry, but I'm not interested!" answer Se Se.
"Hey man! I am the great Phoenix offering you a contract! You're not grateful to reject me!" phoenix was upset.
"I'm not interested! I don't even know what a human contract with a bird is! Why should I contract with you?" answer Se Se.
"If you contract with me, I'll be a protector and share my life with you!" obviously Phoenix.
"If I do that contract, what do you get?" ask Se Se to investigate.
"It is impossible for this arrogant bird to offer a contract that does not benefit him!" thought Se Se.
"That's... Uhmm..." The Phoenix bird seemed to think hard before answering.
