Chapter 560: A guy as insidious and treacherous as a poisonous snake!

Fenghuang and Sheng Xinhuai are family, sisters, besties, and close friends.

It is a relationship of similar interests, mutual respect, and one that can be trusted with life and death.

They care more about themselves than themselves.

Fenghuang grew up in the palace. She is smart and sensitive, and more precocious than her peers.

Therefore, it was difficult for her to become friends with those 'ladies of high socialite' whose acting skills were poor.

She has seen all kinds of movie stars, so who do you think you are?

Fortunately, she met Sheng Xinhuai.

Sheng Xinhuai was like a ray of light, shining into the slightly gloomy corner of her heart.

Yes, in the heart of the young Fenghuang, Sheng Xinhuai is cheerful and generous, wise and sharp, and honest. At least he is honest to himself.

She does not brag about herself, nor does she hide her kindness.

She lives very clearly and realistically.

In everyone's life journey, there is a role similar to a 'guide'.

Sheng Xinhuai is Fenghuang's life guide, and Fenghuang's character development is greatly influenced by Sheng Xinhuai.

Therefore, after returning from her hometown, Fenghuang did not dare to reveal her emotional entanglement with Tang Fei to her family, but she did not hide anything from Sheng Xinhuai and told him the whole process of how she met and got to know Tang Fei.

That's the person she trusts the most.

Now hearing that Sheng Xinhuai was intercepted and taken away by the Security Bureau, Fenghuang immediately turned pale and was filled with worry.

With Shen Wuxiang's current power, if he really wanted to take action against the Sheng family, the Sheng family would have no ability to resist at all.

"Don't worry for now." Tang Fei said comfortingly.

He understood the relationship between Phoenix and Teacher Sheng, and even he himself was anxious when he saw the information Ghost sent from Phoenix City.

He was also worried about Teacher Sheng, but he couldn't let Fenghuang know that he was very worried.

Even I couldn't show that I was more worried than Phoenix.
Well, how to deal with the relationship with your girlfriend and her best friends is a difficult problem that deserves in-depth discussion and study.

No one opened a training class.

"Although Mr. Sheng was stopped by the Security Bureau and prohibited from leaving the country freely, he was not sent to the Security Bureau prison. Instead, he was allowed to go home on his own."

"When I got the news, they had already returned to the Chancellor's residence at No. 18 Yanqing Street under the escort of the Ministry of Finance guards."

"If my prediction is correct, Shen Wuxiang is not ready to completely fall out with the Minister of Finance."

Fenghuang felt a little relieved when she heard that Sheng Xinhuai had returned to her home.

However, the worry in her beautiful eyes was still there, and she said aloud: "Yes, Shen Wuxiang is wary of the Minister of Finance, but also wants to give him another chance. Let's see what choice he will make."

"Shen Qingping's surrender to us will definitely irritate Shen Wuxiang's sensitive nerves. Compared with other people's surrender, Shen Qingping's identity is more sensitive."

"In the next period of time, Shen Wuxiang will certainly carry out a bloody purge within the empire. Every family and clan must make a clear statement. They are either friends or enemies."

"It's unrealistic to imagine the ambiguous attitude and taking sides as before."

"Why did Shen Wuxiang suddenly attack the Sheng family?" Tang Fei looked puzzled and said, "I heard that Shen Wuxiang visited No. 18 Yanqing Street some time ago and the two had a good chat. How long has it been since he changed his attitude? Did something happen in the meantime that we don't know about?"

Phoenix glared at Tang Fei and said, "You are taking advantage of me and still acting like a good kid.
"What do you mean?" Tang Fei looked confused.

Well, he was pretending.

How could he not know anything? That's really hypocritical.

Teacher Sheng took great care of him, and they even had a romance rumor.

He and Xiaopang often went to the Sheng family for dinner, and neither Sheng Jing nor Mei Yuyin treated him as an outsider.
He returned to Phoenix in a disguised identity this time, and Sheng Xinhuai destroyed her own reputation for him. Until now, there are still various obscene rumors circulating that she slept with a rock singer.

Well, it's not a rumor.
After all, Chen Zhuo was indeed lying on her big bed with his upper body naked at that time.

Although Guo Nu did not "identify" his true identity, once he is sure of something, it no longer matters whether there is evidence or not.

With Shen Wuxiang's wisdom, he could naturally see more things.

It is unrealistic to try to deceive him.

Shen Xinglan and Shen Boyu followed behind, and the three great masters gathered at the coast of the East China Sea.
When Shen Wuxiang saw Tang Fei with his dreadlocks and Lu Siyu with purple hair, how could he not know what role Sheng Xinhuai played in between them?
Therefore, when Sheng Xinhuai and Mei Yuyin wanted to go abroad for "travel" this time, they were directly intercepted by the security bureau sent by Shen Wuxiang.

I don't even want to act anymore.

Logically speaking, he needs stability within the empire now.

If he wanted the empire to be stable, the economy to be steadily improving, and the financial sector to be thriving, he would not easily replace the Minister of Finance at this time.

But, intercepting the wife of the Minister of Finance, isn't that the same as giving the Minister of Finance a hard slap in the face?

Tang Fei knew the sacrifices the Sheng family made for him. He could deceive others but he could not deceive himself.

In that case, your conscience will truly be eaten by dogs.

"Why Shen Wuxiang targeted the Sheng family? It's naturally related to you."

Fenghuang is a princess of the empire and has lived in the deep palace for a long time. Naturally, she has a better understanding of the changes in the mentality and means of struggle of these politicians.

"Shen Wuxiang needed all parties to express their views, but Uncle Sheng not only did not stand up to support him, but at the critical moment he wanted to send his wife and daughter abroad. How could Shen Wuxiang not be on guard?"

"Based on my understanding of Uncle Sheng, he would not do something that would alert the enemy. This time he acted out of character. Did something go wrong?"

"No, it's just because he has foreseen the result in advance."

"Ok?"

"If Shen Wuxiang comes to him and asks him to choose a side, will he stand or not? If he chooses to stand on Shen Wuxiang's side, he will have to do his best to help them deal with us."

"If he is unwilling to stand on Shen Wuxiang's side, how can Shen Wuxiang tolerate him? The position of the Minister of Finance is so important. Shen Wuxiang, who controls the rise and fall of a country's economy, will definitely replace it with his own people at all costs."

"So, if I'm not mistaken, Uncle Sheng is unwilling to stand on Shen Wuxiang's side."

Fenghuang looked at Tang Fei thoughtfully and said, "It seems that he really regards you as his future son-in-law."

Tang Fei is as thick-skinned as a city wall. How could he be ashamed by Fenghuang's teasing?

He waved his hand and said calmly, "That's all just gossip. Teacher Sheng and I are innocent. How can it be like what the legend says?"

"No? Uncle Sheng is a reserved and old-fashioned person. He rarely praises others, let alone invites anyone to his home for dinner."

"I also heard that he doesn't usually drink, and doesn't like Shengkuang and Xinhuai to drink. Only when you go, he will take the initiative to offer to drink a few drinks with you."

"That's because we are close friends regardless of age. It's all because of you that we can drink together. If you hadn't introduced Teacher Sheng to me, how would I have had the opportunity to have dinner at the Minister of Finance's house?"

Phoenix smiled and easily let the topic go.

She didn't really want to blame him. If she really cared, she wouldn't say it so casually.

For example, that incident.

She buried it deep in her heart and covered it with flowers and green grass, making it look colorful and extremely beautiful.

However, once the surface scar is uncovered, foul-smelling pus and blood will flow out.

It was too painful, and she was afraid she couldn't bear it. Fenghuang sighed deeply and said, "If Uncle Sheng doesn't take a long time to express his stance, Shen Wuxiang will lose his patience. The more intense the war is over there, the more urgent our pressure is, and the more dangerous the Sheng family will be."

But can they stop moving forward because of the Sheng family?
Can't stop.

This is war!

Tang Fei agreed with Fenghuang's analysis and said, "I believe Uncle Sheng must have some precautions. He has been the empire's finance minister for many years, so he is no ordinary person. He must have some means of self-protection."

"That being said," Phoenix frowned, looked towards the distant sky, and said in a low voice, "I am still worried."

Tang Fei reached out and held her in his arms, and comforted her softly, "It's okay, I'll have the people in Phoenix City keep an eye on them and find a way to rescue them if they find anything wrong."

"Yeah." Phoenix nodded.

She knew that the bandit Tang had many secret agents in Phoenix City, but she had never asked about it.

She helped him but didn't want to influence him.

She didn't want to plant any seeds of doubt.

This hug is not only to warm each other, but also to remember friends far away.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in." Tang Fei let go of Fenghuang and straightened his military uniform.

Ghost team member Lin Hai walked in and reported: "General, someone sent a message through a secret channel and wants to meet with you."

"Who is it?" asked Tang Fei.

"An envoy sent by Prince Philip of the Oss Empire."

Tang Fei and Fenghuang looked at each other and said, "Please invite them to the courtyard where I live."

"Yes, General." Lin Hai replied in a deep voice.

"You have to call me lord from now on." Phoenix reminded from the side.

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed. He bowed respectfully and shouted, "Greetings, my lord."

Lin Hai is not stupid, he understands what the change of title means.

Tang Fei waved his hand and said with a smile: "Alright, alright, we are all family."

Each member of the ghost team is carefully selected and trained and managed personally by Bai Wuxin.

They are extremely capable and loyal, and are the most die-hard among the Tang bandits and the most loyal among their loyal followers.

Therefore, Tang Fei also attaches great importance to them.

It was impossible for Tang Fei to shout everywhere, "From now on, you must all call me lord," so Fenghuang said it out loud.

Fenghuang told Lin Hai, and if Lin Hai was a smart man, he would inform all the staff around Tang Fei.

Well, it's very 'workplace'.

It is said that "flattering a horse" originated from the culture of the Yuan Dynasty. Mongolian people all have the experience of meeting each other while leading horses. Familiar friends will pat the other party's horse's buttocks, feel the horse's fat, and casually praise it as "good horse" to win the favor of the horse owner.

From this we can see that a horse cannot flatter itself, it leaves it to others to do that.

Well, most modern people don’t have horses, so they choose to take their kids for a walk.

The same reason.

After Lin Hai left, Fenghuang looked at Tang Fei and said, "Congratulations, my lord. The person you've been waiting for is finally here."

Tang Fei was also in a good mood and said, "We are very happy. It is a great pleasure to have friends from afar. Come with me to welcome our friends from afar."
-
The City Lord's Mansion. Tang Bandit's Courtyard.

Bandit Tang looked at the two middle-aged men in front of him who were obviously in disguise and asked, "Are you sent by Prince Philip? How do you prove it?"

"Yes, Mr. Tang Fei." The middle-aged man with long blond hair bowed slightly to Tang Fei, and folded his hands across his chest to show the noble etiquette of the Oss Empire: "Prince Philip asked us to send his regards to you."

As he spoke, he clicked on a video projection on his phone.

Soon, Prince Philip's handsome virtual face appeared in the middle of the living room.

He is tall and majestic, like a lion that always exudes masculine charm.

Her golden hair flutters freely, showing her carefree and aristocratic style.

"Hey, Tang, I didn't expect to meet you in this way. No, I should say I didn't expect we would have the chance to meet again."

"To be honest, I have been closely following everything you have done in the Phoenix Empire. I am shocked and admire you. I know that you have done some very difficult and great things."

"Tang, my friend, I have always felt that you are a formidable opponent. And now that you need help, I am willing to introduce my best partner to you."

He waved his hand, and two men came to his side. They were the two who appeared in front of Tang Fei at this moment.

"Don, this is Patton, this is Nicholas. They are the people I trust the most. They come with my friendship and sincerity. I hope you can have a good chat."

"I also firmly believe that we will meet again on a beautiful day. At that time, we must have a drink and chat happily."

"Good luck to you, Don. Good luck to us, too."

The picture stopped and then disappeared.

Patton deleted the video on his phone, leaving no trace of it.

Tang Fei watched his movements and asked, "What if you can't see me?"

"Then this video will never be seen by anyone. It has been protected by seven layers of keys. Anyone who does not know the password and wants to crack it by force will delete it by themselves."

"Really cautious." Tang Fei nodded, looked at Patton and said, "So, your presence here is Philip's personal decision, not the choice of the Oss Empire, right?"

Patton and Nicholas immediately realized that Tang Fei was a tricky guy. He was so smart that he could accurately guess the country's attitude towards him just from the appearance and destruction of this video.

"Yes. We are here on behalf of Prince Philip." Nicholas has short brown hair that is slightly curly. He looks like a mixed-race person, not a pure Ossian.

"Let me guess." Tang Fei looked at Nicholas with a smile and said, "Philip sent you here secretly and didn't want anyone to know. Even an introduction video had to be protected by seven layers of keys and deleted immediately. This proves that the Os Empire supports others. If I'm not mistaken, they chose Shen Wuxiang, right?"

Patton and Nicholas looked at each other. They both knew that this matter could not be concealed.

Before their secret visit to the Tang bandits, the negotiation team of the eldest prince Caesar should have arrived at Shen Wuxiang's Qishan camp.

"Yes, Mr. Tang Fei. Just as you guessed, Prince Caesar chose Shen Wuxiang. He believed that Shen Wuxiang was more powerful and had a better chance of winning the final victory and becoming the new master of this country."

"Was it Prince Caesar who chose Shen Wuxiang, or was it King Lionheart who chose Shen Wuxiang?" Tang Fei was not easily fooled by them and asked.

"Well." Barton hesitated for a moment, but still spoke out: "King Lionheart is indeed more inclined to Prince Caesar's side, but he has not given up on Mr. Tang. This is why he instructed Prince Philip to take the initiative to contact you."

"Of course, Mr. Tang Fei, I can assure you that Prince Philip has always been on your side. He once argued with the Lionheart King and praised you highly."

"Prince Philip believes that although you are still very weak, you have a great chance to become the master of this country."

"I understand, I can understand." Tang Fei smiled gently and said sincerely, "Prince Philip and I are very good friends. When he visited the Phoenix Empire, we established an extremely deep friendship and drank all night long."

"Otherwise, why would he send someone from thousands of miles away to say hello to me? I am deeply touched, and he will always be my best friend."

Patton and Nicholas looked at each other again. Is the relationship between this man and Prince Philip really so close?

How come Prince Philip didn't mention this?

Why did Prince Philip repeatedly warn people on the eve of leaving Oss, "This guy is as sinister and treacherous as a poisonous snake, you must be careful"?
