Back to the law office few hours ago...
Prince Li and Prince FengEr just finished investigating the dead thief in the prison.
The result of the investigation is that the thief was poisoned from eating the food that be delivered by unknown. One of the guard easily to be bribed by a mystery old man, who claimed to be the thief’s grandfather. The bribed guard has been punished but beside that, Prince Li didn’t get any more clues.
"The culprit is smart enough to cover their trace..." Prince Li shares his opinion to Prince FengEr in his office.
"The enemy this time is not easy...you need to be more carefully...WeiDi" Prince FengEr warns him.
"Yes, I know..." Without saying loudly, both of princes actually has the same opinion about the culprit, they don’t now sure who but obviously someone with a strong power, might comes from the palace background.
At that moment ManQi has return to the law office, he enters the Prince Li’s office with XiaoRue.
Both of the princes surprised to see XiaoRue,
"What happened?" Prince Li has suspecting about something must be happened to HuaMuTan again, same also with Prince FengEr.
XiaoRue explains how HuaMuTan took her out from the house and disguised as man and then how they involved to fight with the scumbags who had been put into the prison. Then ManQi continues explaining that from the scumbags’ information, HuaMuTan is at the house of gamble right now.
"The house of gamble???!!!" The place ManQi mentions giving a shocking look on Prince Li’s face while Prince FengEr also surprised but can’t hold his laugh on it. Prince Li then stared unpleasing to Prince FengEr’s laugh,
"Fuh...uhuk...I’m sorry, Wei Di... But thank goodness that MuTan Mei is safe from those scumbags...now you just need to pick her up from there...it is easy for you right?" Prince FengEr smiles and pats his shoulder softly, but somehow Prince Li can feel the mocking in his smile.
’That woman!! Why does she need to always find troubles!!! From all places she can go, she purposely choose to hide in that place!!!! Really...really a troublesome...’, he sighed a very long sigh,
"Maybe I should just leave her there..."
He speaks loudly and it surprised all,
"You don’t mean it right, Wei Di?" Prince FengEr widens his eyes.
Without any words, Prince Li walks out from his office, followed by others. At the door of the law office, Prince Li turns to Princr FengEr, "Do you want to come along, Prince FengEr? I can use your help there!" Prince Li smirks to him.
"No...I am sorry WeiDi but I must return to continue my job...you know, duty calls..." Prince FengEr smiles regretfully.
"I know you would say that!" Prince Li rides on the horse,
"ManQi! Remember, if I don’t return in a hour, don’t hesitate to bring all officers to attack that place!" Prince Li looks to him fiercely.
"Yes, Master! I will! Don’t worry..." ManQi tries to answer seriously although he also deadly hold back his smile.
Then the Prince Li leaves the law office. After he is gone, ManQi and Prince FengEr still looks to the front and both of them seems so sad and give a pity look,
"I am feel so worry for Wei Di...ManQi, you really have to help him later..."
"Oh...I will, Third Prince....don’t worry...I will..."
"What a poor WeiDi....I hope he will be okay...."
"Yeah..."
XiaoRue seems doesn’t understand the reactions. Is the house of gamble a very bad place? She speaks out her mind to ManQi,
"What happen? Is that place so bad? Will Prince Li and XiaoCie be okay???"
ManQi and Prince Li look to each other and can’t hold their laugh any longer,
"Yeah...its very bad for Prince Li...but don’t worry XiaoRue....your XiaoCie will be fine" Prince FengEr ensures XiaoRue and then he excuses himself, he borrows a horse from the law office to return to his place.
While XiaoRue still confused with Prince FengEr’s reaction, why does he laugh just now?
She asks ManQi fiercely,
"Tell me what is so funny with you and Prince FengEr?! Is XiaoCie really fine?"
ManQi smiles to her, pats her shoulders softly like comforting a little child.
"Well, you heard by yourself just now. Prince FengEr said she will be okay...don’t worry!"
XiaoRue still not sure for she confuses about one thing,
"But...why he also said that the place is bad for Prince Li?"
ManQi keeps his smile but giving a pity look,
"Well, let’s say...its bad for Prince Li because he is too handsome..."
ManQi then enters the office again, preparing the officers as what Prince Li has ordered him to do,
XiaoRue who still not satisfy chasing ManQi,
"Waiit...explain to me more...I don’t get it, Why Prince Li can be in trouble because of his handsome look???"
