The Phoenix Reborn Book II

Chapter 15 The Envoy of the Sixth Prince

“Young Master Liang?” Wu Meilan called Liang Fenghong when he realized the man had disappeared in his own world.

Liang Fenghong regained his senses and looked at the Princess. “All the things that happened need to be reported to the Huang family and also Father,” he replied, covering up the demons in his heart. “Knowing the Fifth Prince is involved makes the scope of my movements narrow. I cannot muddy the relations of the two kingdoms as long as you will be a daughter-in-law in this kingdom, Princess.”

Wu Meilan's gaze fell to the floor. It was bad to say this, but he was a little grateful to know the true nature of the Fifth Prince from this incident. Thus, Wu Meilan knew that the Fifth Prince was clearly not on the list of people worthy of receiving his royal favor. Instead, the man was someone who should be shunned and dealt with as quickly as possible.

‘Handle?’ Wu Meilan thought. ‘In addition to finding evidence and having the Emperor hand down punishment on him, there was no other way one could deal with a prince. After all, the Fifth Prince was his son, Emperor Weixin could not possibly impose a severe punishment The princess looked troubled. “Even if the Fifth Prince is proven to be in cahoots with Li Guifei, Emperor Weixin will not kill him. The worst thing is status revocation and exclusion,” he explained.

Liang Fenghong understood regarding Wu Meilan's worries, the princess must have been afraid that Wang Wuyu would be able to gather strength again even after exclusion and strike back in the future. He did not reply to Wu Meilan's words directly, but if indeed Emperor Weixin was to expel Wang Wuyu, then Liang Fenghong would make sure the man would never have a chance to return.

“A Feng ...”

That instant, Liang Fenghong's brain shouted a warning and his eyes immediately turned on Huang Miaoling's face. It was seen that the girl had opened her eyelids slightly and was staring at him. Liang Fenghong's entire focus was fixated on Huang Miaoling's figure.

“Ling’er,” reply Liang Fenghong while grasping Huang Miaoling's hand tightly. He then tried to grab a water pitcher on the table that was near the bed with one hand, but someone preceded him. “Mr Princess!”

Wu Meilan smiled at Liang Fenghong's surprised expression when he saw himself grabbing a teapot and pouring water into a glass. “I couldn't have just noticed, Young Master Liang.” He then extended a glass filled with water to Liang Fenghong.

Liang Fenghong received the glass. “Thank you,” said. The man then thrust one pill to the side of Huang Miaoling's lips and said, “Drink.”

Huang Miaoling did not refuse and directly opened his mouth. With the help of Liang Fenghong who slightly raised his upper body, Huang Miaoling leaned against the man's chest. He then sipped water from the glass that was also brought close to the side of his mouth.

After taking the medicine that Liang Fenghong had given, Huang Miaoling raised his gaze to look at the man. However, he instead found Wu Meilan's figure staring at him with a worried look. Immediately, Huang Miaoling realized that he was in the room of the Princess. He tried to move his body, but to no avail. It seemed, his muscles still refused to cooperate after being forced to stop a moment ago.

“Mr Princess, forgive me for being so presumptuous,” Huang Miaoling said limply, giving up and only remaining in the warm arms of the man by her side.

“Nona Huang, don't be so shy,” reply Wu Meilan. The princess glanced at Liang Fenghong who seemed to want to say something to Huang Miaoling, then she said, “Isn't it better if Miss Huang leaves the palace as soon as possible? This place is dangerous. I was worried that Li Guifei and the Fifth Prince were starting to realize something.”

Liang Fenghong understood that Wu Meilan's words made a lot of sense. However, the man shook his head. “No, Princess. It is said that an intruder tried to attack Emperor Weixin. Thus, until the intruder is caught or there is another unexpected incident, the guards will definitely block anyone who wants to go out or enter the palace,” he replied.

At this moment, Huang Miaoling glanced at Liang Fenghong. “You managed to kill him?”

Huang Miaoling's question made Liang Fenghong and Wu Meilan frown. “Who?” asked the man, but Huang Miaoling did not reply and simply dropped his gaze. It made Liang Fenghong's gaze tremble, beginning to understand what was really going on. “Ling’er, kau—”

“Stop! You can't just break through the Princess's residence like this!” someone shouted out loudly to burst in from outside, stopping whatever it was that Liang Fenghong had just wanted to say. The scream was a warning to those in the room.

Quickly, Wu Meilan and Liang Fenghong stared at each other. The man whispered briefly in a low voice before the two finally nodded their heads and took each other's actions.

Before long, a very foreign voice was heard by Wu Meilan, the voice of a man. “Mr Princess, sorry for the sassness of the servant.” The man's initial remark made the Princess sigh, grateful that the one present was a subordinate.

‘Wait, how could a subordinate so dare to break through my residence?’ inner Wu Meilan with a puzzled look. “What is your reason for committing this sinful act?” He was still trying not to look daunted. “Depending on the reason, I can give a lighter penalty.” After all he was a member of the royal family, a domineering attitude flowed within his body.

For a moment, the man was silent. But then, he said, “Hamba received the news that the Princess had not long returned from outside the palace. Is that true?”

Wu Meilan's eyebrows are linked. ‘Obviously said to have received the news, why make sure again with me?’ The princess felt that it was better for her to be honest than to lie in such a situation. “True.”

“Do the Princesses know that a while ago an intruder broke through the residence of His Majesty Emperor Weixin?” ask the man again.

At this moment, Wu Meilan opened his door wide. He discovered that the man he had been talking to was a young bodyguard with tanned black hair of the same eye color, the appearance typical of someone from the plains of Shi kingdom. The man's clothes were slightly different from those of the other guards behind him, indicating that he was most likely the head of the security guard at the palace.

The expression painted on Wu Meilan's face showed confusion. “There is such a thing?” ask her with a frown. “Then, has the intruder been caught?” There was a slight tremor in his view, as if he was really worrying about his own safety.

The young bodyguard looked at Wu Meilan for a while with a flat face, like he was reading every expression of the girl. Realizing that staring for too long was not polite, the bodyguard finally lowered his head. “Hamba regretted having to say that it has not been achieved,” replied in a firm tone. “Therefore, the arrival of the servant here is to do the inspection.”

At this moment, Wu Meilan's gaze turned displeased. “You ... are you accusing me?” tanyakanya.

The man immediately knelt on one leg followed by another bodyguard who was behind him. “Hope Lord Princess don't be angry. Servant only did the Sixth Prince's orders and followed the palace rules to ensure the safety of the palace residents,” said the guard, was so skilled to give a tongue. “Hamba just running errands, please Princess allow.”

“You want to check my room?” wu Meilan asked again, this time with a trembling tone in her voice that sounded as if she was holding back anger. ‘Sixth Prince?’ He realized something. Although quite surprised by the information, Wu Meilan still looked calm.

The young guard replied, “Ya.” He boldly raised his gaze to look at Wu Meilan. “Mr Princess .. don't mind, do you?”
