Lory quickly peek from the window, below she can see Zhao Mu Fan with Lao Fei Yan behind them there's also crown Prince bodyguard and Lao Fei Yan personal maid. Zhao Mu Fan looks very angry he scowls at the male servant who was served them before, yes, the one that kowtows in front of Zhao Li Xin with a paled face but now the same man facing the crown face with a calmed face he doesn't look like the same man as before.

"How dare you cancel my reservation, this is outrageous!!" Zhao Mu Fan hit the table and the table break with loud sounds.

But the male servant face remains calmed he not even budged a little "I'm terribly sorry your highness, but the owner of this place said I must cancel all reservation for today, I just following order" he slightly bow but he doesn't look sorry at all.

"Humph, a manager restaurant dares to refute me, do you know who I am!!" Zhao Mu Fan said with arrogant looks, even though Phoenix Hall is famous but they just a restaurant, he won't believe they have the guts against Royal Family.

The male servant turns out to be the Manager restaurant, he smiles calmly "I course, your highness Crown Prince" he cupped his hands respectfully but with blatant mockery in his toned, Zhao Mu Fan faces turns red from shammed. Never in a million years he would imagine someday a lowly servant dare to mock him.

While people who watch the spectacle could only hide their smiles, there's no secret for everyone that Zhao Mu Fan is known for his pompous and lecherous behavior. He likes to use his title to intimidate his opponent and until now one dare to against him but then, this happened.

"This is Phoenix Hall, we bound to follow the owner of this Place we only listened our Master" he said solemnly without fear in his eyes, why should he? He is the member of Hei Shen Sect under the Black Purple Palace, what kinda power Hei Shen sect have everyone should know, he fears no one even if he must against The Emperor himself he's not scared it's better than against the 'Demon Lord' upstairs.

"But you all still Jiang Wei citizens, all of you still need to followed the kingdom rules if not you all be considered as a rebel and be treated as one, you want to against all Jiang Wei Kingdom!!!" Zhao Mu Fan sneered, he wants to see what this servant would he already decide even if that servant apologizes and kneeled in front of him he would still cut his body piece by piece.

People who heard Zhao Mu Fan Threat hold their breath they feel shiver all over their body, it's true no matter how strong Phoenix hall is how could they offended Jiang Wei Crown Prince it's like they challenged the whole Kingdom, many people just shake their heads they pitty the owner of the restaurant maybe tomorrow Phoenix Hall won't be here anymore.

"Sir you are the one who is wrong, how could you treat your kingdom crown prince like this" Lao Fei Yan suddenly move forward showing her prestige as the crown Prince fiancée.

"Why not called your owner and tell him to apologized in front of the crown Prince, our prince is a magnanimous person perhaps he would lighten your punishment" she smiled arrogantly.

The manager paled because the one they talking about it's upstairs and definitely listened to their stupid conversation that man temperament is so fickle who knew what would he do. he wants to cry he just got off the hook a moment ago and now this happening again, what day is this why he so unlucky today.

Lory also glance at Zhao Li Xin, she wonders what would he do but Zhao Li Xin leisurely sips his wine with an expressionless face as if he not heard anything he only beckoned Lory who was peeking like a thief to sit beside him, he tapped the leftover bowl sign her to continue her lunch. Lory pout she still wants to see the show, she missed the entertainment and there is no television or internet in this world and this 'life entertaiment' not come very often.

Zhao Li Xin raised his eyebrows then he squinted his eyes threatening her, for some reason Lory not dare to against him is not like he scared with him but he had similar bearing like her Father that makes her not dare against him at least not blatantly. She reluctantly continued her lunch with him but she still slightly opens the window so she still can hear them downstairs.

Zhao Li Xin can only sigh his savior behavior, she likes sneaking around and watching people fighting everywhere, she really is quite a mischievous girl but is not like he hated it but she needs to learn to take care herself more, she can go run around without eating she's not a cultivator what if she got stomachache. While Lory doesn't realize her worrywart 'Boss' she much her dish while keeping her ears opens.

downstairs Zhao Mu Fan gloat when he saw the manager anxious face he thought the manager must be scared with his threat, Zhao Mu Fan makes victorious smile and Lao Fei Yan also thought the same she also proud because she can talk represents the crown prince all women must be jealous with her right now.

On the other hands the manager waiting what his lord would do, is he gonna kick the door killed them all then punish him or just kick the door and kill them all sometime his Lord can be so lazy, thankfully his Lord doesn't do anything he doesn't feel his dreadful aura every time he feels offended, he was stunned but he glad. Sigh in relief he shifts his attention back to the stupid duo "This...your highness, are you familiar with Jiang Wei exclusive contract?" the manager gives Zhao Mu Fan a meaningful gaze.

Zhao Mu Fan feels like the lightning struck his head, suddenly his expression become stiff but Lao Fei Yan doesn't know what's that supposed to mean but that's not weird most people don't know about exclusive contract, but judging by Zhao Mu Fan reaction everyone could guess is not something trivial.

"Your highness, what is exclusive contract?" Lao Fei Yan asked with a quiet voice.

"That..." Zhao Mu Fan can't explain it since it was an embarrassing matter.

The truth is exclusive contract was made five years ago because the kingdom having finance crisis, it's all because combination of the governments corruption and the emperor hobby with party and increase his harem after a few decades it's begin to dry up the treasury funds, thing's only got worse when the border attack by barbarian tribes and that's why Zhao Yi Chen the third prince send to the border to counter the problem but more problem arises when robber and pirated makes the road unsafe with all of that combine the economy in Jiang Wei kingdom took a high dive.

Then who knew whose idea it is someone proposed the idea of exclusive contract where anyone who has the ability to paid tax double amounts would be given advantages to propose a certain kind of condition they wants, at that time Phoenix hall restaurant agrees to pay the tax double but they want anything and everything happened in phoenix hall stayed in Phoenix Hall, the rules outside cannot interfere the business inside the Phoenix Hall, once they get inside the Phoenix Hall all of them no matter who they are must bound to Phoenix Hall rules without exception.

The Emperor agrees as long Phoenix hall not threat the kingdom they allowed them to do anything inside the Phoenix Hall. At that time, not just a phoenix hall restaurant, more business owner asking the same thing's of course, all of them need to paid quite sums of money but it's all worth it, because that's mean they can protect their business from everyone including from high official and Royal Family.

But what they don't know is the owner of all the business who requests such condition is own by one person, that person is Zhao Li Xin who is using his King's palace to do the deed, the emperor doesn't know all of them is owned by one person and Hei Shen Sect no one does. Because of this the economy becomes stable again and more business arising but no one has the Exclusive contract anymore but doesn't matter Zhao Li Xin spread his business to every corner of Jiang Wei Kingdom, this day if he has not owned the business they would at least collaborate with him including the Prince's, no one knows he had monopoly the trading in Jiang Wei kingdom under the table.

This past years Zhao Li Xin had influence every business sector in Jiang Wei and one day when he want to ruin Jiang Wei kingdom all he need to do is pull out his business investment from the kingdom and see what would happened with Jiang wei economy. The kingdom might still have the chance to whistand the blow if only the politic inside the kingdom quite stable but with so many Prince's faction who fight for the throned the guarantee of chaos almost certain.

If the economy down the first thing the government would do will be raised the tax because of that the other commodity value also raised then inflation would happen, gradually people would lose the ability to fulfill their needs than poverty happening and then what happens next, of course, the rebellion would happen. Zhao Li Xin won't be surprised the one who acts would be Zhao Yi Chen, he already a hero who protecting the border it's only natural people would look up to him when everything gets harder.

Judging by the situation it's won't be impossible Zhao Mu Fan and Zhao Qin Feng the fifth Prince Zhao Li Xin older Brother would join together to fight Zhao Yi Chen, the result either Zhao Yi Chen kill both prince or the both Prince kill Zhao Yi Chen and then they killed each other for the throned since only one can be Emperor, whoever takes the throned doesn't matter The Jiang Wei Kingdom would be ruined because of the war between them.

Zhao Li Xin doesn't need to dirty his hands, he doesn't need to go to the Palace to killed them on his own like savages he didn't need to gather his army and march to the palace like a vengeful warrior, no he doesn't need to do all that, he let the princes do the damaged and chaos while he watching from the side while drinking his favorite wine like he always do.
