Chapter 2417 Feng Xiao’s Biased Side (3)
The elders, who didn't know what was going on, gave their representatives a look, and the eloquent elder of the Phoenix Clan quickly reminded,""King, Feng Yun isn't here, so let's first discuss the matter between you and Lord lianwu! You can summon Feng Yun later!"
"No! I want to see Feng Yun now! I don't have anything to discuss with that lianwu!" The Phoenix King said willfully.
"My King ..." A certain elder looked at the Phoenix King with a slight headache.
At this moment, Feng Yun, who the Phoenix King wanted to see, was brought over by the guards.
The moment Feng Yun saw the Phoenix King, she immediately wailed and cried,""My King! The Wutong tree, the Wutong tree was taken away by Lord lianwu!"
"What did you just say?" Hearing this, the Phoenix King stood up immediately. The expressions of all the elders of the Phoenix Clan changed drastically as they looked at Feng Yun nervously.
In fact, Feng Yun had just woken up from his coma. Just as he was about to report this matter to the Phoenix King, he coincidentally received a Guard's notice that the Phoenix King wanted to see him. The moment he heard it, he couldn't wait any longer and came to the Phoenix King Palace.
"The sycamore tree is gone." Feng Yun repeated when he saw the shock and disbelief on the faces of the Phoenix King and the elders.
Following that, Feng Yun explained everything that happened in the parasol tree forest to the Phoenix King and the elders. After the Phoenix King and the elders heard it, they were all as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
The Furious Phoenix King could not help but vent all her anger on the elder who had been speaking up for Lian Wu. She said fiercely,"What else do you have to say now? Do you still want our Phoenix Clan to be on good terms with that damned lianwu?"
The Phoenix King was furious, and the consequences would be severe.
Originally, she just wanted to ask Feng Yun and Lian Wu about the situation in the parasol tree forest. She didn't expect to hear that all her parasol trees had disappeared. This time, the hatred in her heart for Lian Wu rose a few steps.
However, after the elder of the Phoenix tribe who had been scolded heard that the parasol tree had disappeared, he calmed down. He glanced at the Phoenix King and asked,""According to what this subordinate knows, it was king who personally agreed for Lord lianwu to go to the parasol tree forest. King even swore that if Lord lianwu could move the entire parasol tree forest away, King would not have any objections. Now that Lord lianwu really did that, why is King regretting it? If you want this subordinate to say a few words of Justice, Lord lianwu is not in the wrong. After all, Wang youyan was the one who started it!"
After listening to the elder's words, the Phoenix King was so angry that her whole body trembled. She pointed her white jade-like finger at the elder, unable to say a complete sentence. This time, she was really angry. This, this damn guy, he clearly wants to go Against Me!
To side with an outsider like this, could it be that he had already been bribed by that hateful Lian Wu?
As soon as the seed of doubt was planted in the Phoenix King's heart, she instantly lost her good face towards this elder who only knew how to go against her. She also felt that this elder was extremely unpleasant to the eye. Moreover, the more she looked at this elder, the more suspicious she became. In the end, she was even certain that this guy had definitely been bribed by Lian Wu.
However, before the Phoenix King could voice out her thoughts, an elder agreed and said,""Elder Xiao's words are very reasonable. This matter was indeed started by Wang youyan. It was the king who was too careless!"
Upon hearing this, the Phoenix King felt a mouthful of blood surging up her throat. Her mouth was instantly filled with the taste of blood. She suppressed her anger and swallowed the mouthful of blood. Her already unhealthy face turned white and black, black and white.
However, at this moment, no elder cared about the king's expression. Instead, he suggested in all seriousness,"If even Lady Wu really took away our parasol trees, we have to be on good terms with her. You must know that not everyone can take away those parasol trees, unless they are willing!"
"Yup! I didn't expect Lord lianwu to have such ability to make those parasol trees listen to her. If we get along well with her, Lord lianwu will be happy and might even return those parasol trees to us! After all, she's not from the Phoenix Clan. Those parasol trees are useless to her, aren't they?" The more the elder spoke, the more excited he became. The anxiety, shock, and disbelief on his face had all turned into joy.
When he said this, many elders also deeply agreed, feeling that it was exactly that logic!
Hearing the discussions of the elders, Feng Yun who originally came to complain was instantly dumbfounded.
How did this happen? This shouldn't be the case!
After knowing that the Wutong tree had been stolen, shouldn't these elders be so angry that they would gather their clansmen to snatch the Wutong tree back? Then ... What was the situation now?
Feng Yun was at a loss.
The Phoenix King was so angry that he was speechless.
At this moment, the eloquent elder Xiao smiled and said,""All the elders have a point. To us, befriending Lord lianwu is absolutely of utmost importance! However, the king doesn't seem to agree with this!"
As he spoke, elder Xiao changed the topic to the Furious Phoenix King.
"Your Majesty, don't be angry anymore. It was indeed your fault for not being careful with your words, which caused our Phoenix tribe to lose our parasol tree. Therefore, you must make up for your mistake. Otherwise, you will be a sinner of our Phoenix tribe!" As soon as elder Xiao's words fell, there were immediately elders who criticized the Phoenix King with righteous words. Naturally, these words were highly praised by the other elders.
The Phoenix King's brain was buzzing from all the noise. Although she endured it, in the end, she couldn't take it anymore and shouted angrily,""All of you shut up! I know what to do, I don't need you to teach me!"
The Phoenix King's anger could not be described with words. Especially when she saw elder Xiao looking at her with a smile and anticipation, the anger in her heart deepened.
Now, even if she insisted that Feng Xiao had been bribed by Lian Wu, the elders would not believe her. It was really too detestable!
Knowing the anger and dissatisfaction of the Phoenix King, Feng Xiao said without fear of death,""Then when will the Phoenix King meet Lord lianwu? This matter should not be delayed. Otherwise, if Lord lianwu leaves, I'm afraid that Your Highness can only go to the Imperial City to find her, and you may not be able to find her at that time. "
"Why can't I find her?" Hearing the last few words, the Phoenix King suppressed his anger and asked.
"Wang, have you forgotten? That Lord lianwu is the advisor of God Lord fogripple, and one of the more secretive ones at that. We rarely hear of her name, so it can be seen just how well God Lord fogripple has hidden her! Did the king think that he would be able to find out anything about an advisor who usually did not see the light of day? Or are you planning to personally ask God Lord fogripple? I don't believe that God Lord fogripple would be happy to tell you. " Feng Xiao's words were sincere and earnest as he explained patiently.
When the Phoenix King heard this, it seemed to make sense. However, she did not know why, but she was extremely unhappy!
At this moment, she glanced at Feng Yun who had a deathly pale expression and asked with uncertainty,""Have all the parasol trees in our parasol tree forest really disappeared?"
"Uh! This subordinate only heard many sycamore trees say that they would leave with Lord lianwu. Then, this subordinate fainted. This subordinate does not know what happened after that. By the time this subordinate woke up, he was already back at his own residence. " Feng Yun didn't dare to hide anything and spoke the truth.
"So you didn't see the parasol trees leave with Lord lianwu?" After hearing this, Feng Xiao quickly asked.
"No, I fainted." Feng Yun said with some embarrassment. At this moment, he felt a few dissatisfied gazes and immediately felt guilty.
"Your Majesty, since Fengyun is unable to confirm this matter, why don't you send someone you trust to the parasol tree forest to confirm it?" Feng Xiao suggested.
"Well, Feng Yuan, take some people with you to take a look." The Phoenix King nodded and then instructed an elder present.
After receiving the order, the elder immediately led the guards to the parasol tree forest. Not long after, they returned and reported truthfully,""Your Majesty, those parasol trees are still here!"
"Still here? Feng Yun, what do you say?" The Phoenix King narrowed his eyes. He was obviously a little unhappy.
"Your Majesty, it must be because Lord lianwu couldn't take away so many parasol trees at once, so he left them behind. I think she will definitely come back to take them away. I think we should think of a countermeasure as soon as possible. We can't let Lord lianwu take away all the parasol trees!" Feng Yun's forehead was covered in sweat as he thought about what to say.
"What do you all think of Feng Yun's idea?" After hearing Feng Yun's words, the Phoenix King turned to look at the other elders and asked.
"Your Majesty, this is inappropriate!" Feng Xiao said sternly. Then, he began to reason,""King, you've already made an oath. If Lord Lian Wu can take away those parasol trees, you can't stop him. Otherwise, the laws of the world will definitely punish you. Once this matter is spread out, our Phoenix Clan will probably become people who go back on their words. The reputation of our Phoenix Clan can not be ruined by breaking our promise!"
"Then what do you suggest we do?" When the Phoenix King heard Feng Xiao's words, he roared again in anger. She really wanted to scold him,"you ungrateful wretch, what benefits did Lian Wu give you to make you speak up for that ugly woman?"
In fact, there was a sentence in her heart that she had never had the chance to say. That was,"I can't stop you, but can't you?" But at this time, the Phoenix King believed that as long as she revealed this thought, she would be despised by the elders who valued the reputation of the Phoenix Clan, especially that Feng Xiao who sided with outsiders. Who knew what kind of great reason he would come up with! With this thought in mind, she could only give up on this idea!
