Chapter 398 War begins!
Phoenix Villa.

When Tang Fei received the call and rushed over, Fenghuang and Sheng Xinhuai had already set up a grill in the yard, and were leading a group of maids to skewer meat and various vegetables on the red willow stalks.

Seeing Tang Fei coming over, Fenghuang said happily: "Tang Fei, you came at the right time. The task of grilling meat is now handed over to you. The meat you grill is the most delicious."

"No problem." Tang Fei agreed readily and said, "My old man once said that if you want to win a woman's heart, you must first win her stomach."

"One step to the stomach?" Sheng Xinhuai blinked and asked, "Did you win Phoenix's heart first, or her stomach first?"

Tang Fei looked at Sheng Xinhuai. He suspected that the woman was driving, but he had no evidence.

Teacher Sheng has this ability. She can make every word she says make people think about something else.

However, when you think about it carefully, it is difficult to find any evidence against her.

As expected of a professor of the Faculty of Arts at the Empire's First Military Academy, his language proficiency is unparalleled.
Seeing Sheng Xinhuai's pair of pure eyes looking at him innocently, waiting for the answer to this question, Tang Fei gave up the idea of ​​questioning and explained, "The princess and I fell in love at first sight. She fainted with excitement when she saw me for the first time."

"I have never seen such a beautiful and fair woman. She looks like she bathes often. That's why I was willing to take the trouble to carry her back."

"Otherwise, I don't care whether she lives or dies. In a place like Hate Mountain, if we encounter a predator, it will be very time-consuming to carry a woman on our shoulders."

Fenghuang just chuckled and did not refute Tang Fei's words.

Anyway, she has fallen in love with Tang Fei now, so whatever he says is what she will do.

What's the point of arguing so clearly?
Who likes who first? Is it a shameful thing?

She didn't mind falling in love with Tang Fei first, and she also hoped that this would be the case.

Sheng Xinhuai rolled his eyes and said with disdain: "She fainted because of you, right? She used to see clean and handsome young men, and suddenly saw a wild man. She thought she had encountered a cannibal."

"Although I have never been to Old Earth, we have all heard about it. The people in Old Earth are extremely hungry. Even people eat her delicate skin and tender flesh. What if she is eaten by you?"

Tang Fei looked at Fenghuang with a smile and said, "I do want to eat her, but the way I want to eat her is not the same as the way you say to eat her, right?"

"Tang Fei, you rascal, I didn't expect you to have such dirty thoughts about Fenghuang."

"How is this disgusting? Isn't this a normal reaction? What normal man wouldn't want to try a Phoenix like this?"

"go to hell."

"."

Tang Fei shrugged.

This woman.
She can say anything when she's in the cockpit racing.

I had just started the car and she called me a hooligan.

Can’t afford it?

"Okay, stop arguing, both of you. You act like two little kids the moment you meet." Fenghuang pushed Tang Fei to the grill and said, "The charcoal fire is ready, get started. I've been busy for so long, I'm hungry."

"No problem." Tang Fei picked up a handful of skewers and started grilling them on the stove, saying, "I'm not trying to brag, but I'm the best barbecue chef in the entire Hate Mountain area. The skewers I grill are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. They sizzle and ooze oil when you bite into them. I wouldn't trade them for anything, even a god."

“Generally speaking, people who say ‘I don’t want to brag to you’ are about to start bragging,” Sheng Xinhuai said.

"Don't believe me, don't eat it later."

"Of course I'm going to eat it. I'm the one who skewered the meat."

"Don't you think it tastes bad?"

"Do you have any reading comprehension skills? I just said you're not the best grill chef in Hate Mountain. I didn't say your grilled meat tastes bad."

"How do you know I'm not?"

"What evidence do you have that you are?"

"Can I still go to Hate Mountain and have a barbecue competition?"

“Without comparison, there is no right to speak.”

"I think I am."

"I don't want you to think, I want me to think."

"."

Fenghuang looked at Sheng Xinhuai thoughtfully. She knew that her best friend was not someone who liked to argue with others, and she was unwilling and disdainful to do so.

She lives a very selfish life. She won't explain anything to others, and she doesn't care about other people's lives.

However, when she was with Tang Fei, they would start fighting as soon as they disagreed.

"This is very abnormal, Mr. Sheng."

When the surface of the skewers turned brown and oil sizzled out, Tang Fei began to sprinkle various seasonings on them.

Cumin and chili powder are the soul and are naturally indispensable.

Tang Fei handed the grilled skewers to Fenghuang and said gently, "Come and try to see if it tastes good."

Of course, the first skewer of barbecue should be given to Her Royal Highness the Princess.

Teacher Sheng, wait.
Phoenix's eyes smiled into crescents. She took the skewer, took a bite, and then showed a happy look.

She looked at Tang Fei with a smile on her face and said in a coquettish tone: "After eating the barbecue you made in the small courtyard in Henshan, I have been thinking about it all the time. It was the most delicious barbecue I have ever eaten. No, it was the most delicious food I have ever eaten."

"I've always told Teacher Sheng that when you have time, you must let her try it. After she tries it, she'll know that you're not only the best barbecue chef in Hate Mountain, but also the best barbecue chef in the Phoenix Empire. I can certify you that no one in this world can make better barbecue than you."

Sheng Xinhuai clicked his tongue and said, "If I continue to listen to you guys show off like this, I won't have to eat this barbecue with sore teeth anymore."

Fenghuang smiled, grabbed a handful of skewers from the grill and handed them to Sheng Xinhuai, saying, "Try it now. Once you try, you'll know I'm not lying."

Sheng Xinhuai took the skewer and took a bite, and found that it was indeed better than what he had eaten in other places.

The hotter the fire, the stronger the taste.

This is the style that Sheng Xinhuai likes.

So she ate all the skewers of meat in her hand.

"How is it? Not bad, right?" Fenghuang, who had been observing Sheng Xinhuai's expression from the side, asked with anticipation.

You should praise Tang Fei quickly. You should praise Tang Fei quickly.
Sheng Xinhuai praised Tang Fei, she was even happier than Tang Fei.

"Not bad." Sheng Xinhuai nodded and said, "It would be even better if there was a glass of Princess Champagne to go with it."

"I knew you wanted this. Don't worry, it has been frozen long ago." Phoenix said with a smile.

Fenghuang had a bucket of frozen champagne brought over, opened it and poured a glass for each person.

Tang Fei was drinking while grilling skewers for everyone.

Seeing beads of sweat on Tang Fei's forehead, Fenghuang took out a handkerchief and gently wiped them for him.

Tang Fei looked at Fenghuang who raised her head to wipe the sweat off his face. He could clearly smell the orchid and orange fragrance of the girl.

This reminded him of the cave in Hate Mountain. When he and Phoenix went to fetch water, they were hit by acid rain. When they couldn't dodge in time, they hid in that cave.
That was the first time that Tang Fei smelled the fragrance of Fenghuang, and it was also the first time he knew that a woman could emit such a pleasant fragrance.

Fenghuang felt Tang Fei's burning gaze, the two looked at each other, and then laughed at the same time.

It feels so good.

“I should be under the car.”

"I shouldn't be here" "I see how sweet you are"
-
Sheng Xinhuai turned his head and drank silently, pretending not to see it all.

She also noticed the sweat on Tang Fei's forehead, but she was not qualified to wipe it for him.

Tang Fei put the grilled skewers of meat and vegetables on a plate and prepared a portion for the maids as well.

They all praised it highly and said it was the best barbecue they had ever eaten.

There is no way, the man that Her Royal Highness likes.
Can they say it's not good?

After grilling the skewers and vegetables, Tang Fei and Fenghuang Sheng Xinhuai sat in the pavilion in the yard and drank.

Fenghuang looked at Tang Fei and asked with concern: "Did you go to the Lu family today?"

"Yes." Tang Fei nodded: "The military minister personally asked me to cooperate with the security bureau in handling the case. How dare I refuse? I can only go with them."

"They didn't give you any trouble?"

"Really not." Tang Fei smiled helplessly: "Because of this incident, the military minister suspected that I was in cahoots with the Lu family and interrogated me."

Sheng Xinhuai took a sip of champagne, raised his glass and looked at Tang Fei and asked, "People say that you have a good relationship with the young lady of the Lu family, and it was because she interceded for you that you were able to escape. Is that true? You are quite popular, young man."

Fenghuang also looked at Tang Fei with shining eyes. Obviously, she must have heard the rumors outside.

"This is what I explained to Shen Wuxiang, but Shen Wuxiang didn't believe it." Tang Fei said, preparing to use Shen Wuxiang as a shield.

At this time, other people's analysis is more powerful than your own explanation.

"Shen Wuxiang said that even though Lu Siyu and I were classmates and had a good relationship, that little bit of friendship was not enough when it came to family interests."

"What's more, I arrested Gongshu Wuyu and Lu Yunhang from the Lu family. Hundreds of officials and technicians who were attached to the Lu family were dismissed or imprisoned because of me."

"The Lu family must hate me to the core now. How could they let me go just because of the little friendship between me and Lu Siyu?"

"So, what does Shen Wuxiang think is the truth?" Phoenix asked.

"Shen Wuxiang thinks the Lu family is trying to sow discord." Tang Fei looked at Fenghuang and said seriously, "If the Supervisory Council and the Security Bureau come into conflict at this time, or if Shen Wuxiang and I become suspicious and hate each other, the Lu family will be the ultimate beneficiary."

Phoenix nodded and said, "This guess is in line with common sense."

Sheng Xinhuai looked at Tang Fei and asked, "Are you really going to attack the Lu family?"

"How can I decide on this kind of thing? I'm just a small director of the Supervisory Commission, and a deputy at that. I do whatever the boss above tells me to do. How can I have a say?"

"Oh, you have a pretty clear self-awareness." Sheng Xinhuai curled his lips and said, "If that's the case, why didn't you want to leave when we asked you to?"

Fenghuang also had a sad face, and looked at Tang Fei and said, "It's been very turbulent recently, and you've been caught in this storm. If you're not careful, you'll be crushed to pieces."

Tang Fei patted the back of Fenghuang's hand and comforted her, "Don't worry, I will protect myself. I am just a small figure in the Supervisory Council. I don't show up or cause trouble. They won't notice me."

"Besides, who would offend Her Royal Highness the Princess because of a small person like me? They know that if they kill or injure me, Her Royal Highness the Princess will never forgive them."

"It's not over yet."

"what is that?"

"Fight to the death." Phoenix said seriously, "I will fight them to the death."

"hiss"

Sheng Xinhuai took a deep breath and said, "My teeth are sore. My teeth are sore. Is this champagne expired? Why does it taste so sour?"

"You are jealous." Fenghuang held Tang Fei's hand tightly and did not mind showing her intimacy with Tang Fei in front of her good friend.

"Jealousy causes your mammary glands to become blocked." Tang Fei also fought back.

Sheng was furious and cursed: "You have blocked breast ducts, my breast ducts are healthy."

"Not always."

"If you don't believe me, try it?"

"." Tang Bandit.

"."Phoenix.

At this moment, Tang Fei's cell phone rang.

He glanced at the message he received and said to Fenghuang and Sheng Xinhuai, "The eldest prince asked me to come over."

"Well, he should know that you are here with me." Phoenix nodded and spoke out.

"I should ask you about what happened on Luban Mountain." Sheng Xinhuai reminded him, and then said impatiently: "Go ahead. It's better if you leave. Fenghuang and I have some inappropriate conversations for young men. I have to hold it in while you are here."

"What can't I hear?"

"There are many more." Sheng Xinhuai snorted coldly.

Tang Fei smiled, stood up and walked to the oven to start working.

Guangguang Pavilion.

After Tang Fei entered the room, he found Zhong Tianque sitting in the yard drinking tea.

He handed over the plate of barbecue in his hand and said with a smile: "Your Highness, have you had dinner? We will have barbecue tonight. I specially prepared a portion for you when you came."

These barbecues were not prepared for Zhong Tianque, but after receiving Zhong Tianque's message, he reheated the unfinished ones.
Zhong Tianque is very satisfied with Tang Fei's attitude. What does this mean?
This shows that when Tang Fei got something good, the first person he thought of was himself.

Zhong Tianque had just returned from a dinner party and had already eaten a lot, but he still picked up a skewer and started eating it out of courtesy.

The fragrant and spicy taste entered his throat, making him feel a little uncomfortable, and a layer of hot sweat appeared on his face in an instant.

However, there is also a very novel and refreshing feeling.

"Not bad." Zhong Tianque hissed and said, "It tastes better than those chefs in the palace."

There is a professional team of chefs in the Phoenix Palace, and they will naturally make some barbecue to meet the requirements of the royal family members. However, for their health considerations, they will use less oil and less spicy, and grill slowly over low heat.
The taste is naturally far inferior.

"Then Your Highness, please eat more. I will come over and make barbecue for you anytime if you wish." Tang Fei looked flattering.

Qian Taian sneered at the side. These young people had no moral principles. They flattered the boss and were willing to do jobs like cooking.
Do you have any character of a brave general or counselor?
"How can that be? You are someone I need very much, how can I let you come and cook barbecue for me? If this gets out, people will think that I, Zhong Tianque, don't know how to cherish talent, and they will poke me in the back."

"How could that be? Your Highness asked me to come over for a barbecue, which means he treats me as a friend, as one of his own. Isn't it natural for friends to have a barbecue and a drink?"

"I just came from Her Highness Xiuxue. Her Highness Xiuxue called me and asked me to come over for a barbecue. I don't feel looked down upon. On the contrary, I feel proud that Her Highness Xiuxue treats me as one of her own."

"Your Highness is the same as Your Highness Xiuxue. If you want to eat meat, just call us. If anyone dares to say those rumors, I will cut off his tongue."

While Tang Fei was speaking, he glanced at Qian Taian vaguely.

Qian Taian shrank his neck. Is this guy hinting at him?

"Hahaha, that's a good point. Gatherings between friends should be casual and natural. I've also learned a few home cooking dishes. Next time you come to barbecue, I'll make you cod soup."

"Okay, it's the greatest honor of my life to be able to eat the food cooked by Your Highness." Tang Fei said with a smile.

After finishing the idle talk, Zhong Tianque got to the point and looked at Tang Fei and asked, "Is Shen Wuxiang going to declare war on the Lu family?"
-
Luban Mountain.

Countless spots of light suddenly appeared in the inky black sky.

They swooped down like meteors, drawing graceful arcs in the sky, and then gathered towards the foot of Luban Mountain.
