Chapter 544: Chapter 339: Punish Those Who Deserve It, Kill Those Who Deserve Death!

Light Pavilion.

Zhong Tianque looked at Tang Fei, who had taken the initiative to come and report his work, and asked with a smile, "Director Tang is so busy with official duties, how do you have time to come here and drink tea with me?"

Tang Fei had beaten Yu Huoshui to a pulp in Winding Water Garden and had publicly arrested him and brought him back to the Monitoring Bureau. The incident had spread throughout Phoenix City and was the talk of the town.

With Zhong Tianque’s intelligence network, he had naturally learned of this matter long ago.

This made him increasingly recognize Tang Fei’s ability and efficiency, feeling that Tang Fei was truly his confidant.

Just look, for the sake of avenging his own humiliation, he did not hesitate to offend the Yu Family and took pleasure in shaming Yu Huoshui thoroughly...

Besides Tang Fei, who else would have the courage to do such a thing?

Thinking of this, his gaze towards Tang Fei softened even more.

This young man could be well cultivated. Once he came into power, he could be used as his own "Mad Dog."

His father had raised a mad dog, capable of patrolling in all directions, tearing apart any officials he disliked.

He too could follow the example, with the Sword of Damocles hanging high, making everyone maintain respect and awe towards himself.

Yes, it shall be my gift to bestow.

The punishment, however, shall be delivered by Tang Fei.

"I came to the palace with the chief to report to the King, and thinking that the cases we’re reporting are somewhat related to Your Highness, I thought I’d come and see you..." Tang Fei sat upright, respectfully looking at Zhong Tianque as he spoke.

Zhong Tianque had always been imitating his father, Zhong Daolong, and his mannerisms carried a hint of Zhong Daolong’s spirit.

At this moment, his state of mind was extremely complex, with both the Crown Prince’s arrogant pride and the anxious unease about anything that might affect his ascent to the throne.

Thus, Tang Fei gave him as much respect as possible, displaying an unwavering impression that the position of future King was none but his.

This way, in his heart, he would grow increasingly approving of Tang Fei.

It was a subtle emotional value that perhaps even Zhong Tianque himself wasn’t aware of his own needs in this regard.

Indeed, Zhong Tianque noticed Tang Fei’s attitude and, with magnanimity, waved his hand and said, "Make yourself at home here, just as if you were at a friend’s place... Have some tea, try my Longjing tea."

"This tea comes from ancient trees that have been transplanted from Blue Star, made using traditional frying methods, and yields only about thirty to fifty kilos per year... See if it suits your taste."

Tang Fei took a sip of the tea and praised, "After drinking, it leaves a lingering fragrance on the lips and teeth, even a coarse person like me finds it delicious, which proves that this is indeed top-quality tea in the world."

"Hahaha, as long as you like it, take some with you when you return."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Tang Fei, overjoyed, expressed his gratitude.

After presenting the gift, Zhong Tianque finally led the conversation to the main topic and asked, "You mentioned that the case you are reporting to the King concerns me... May I ask what exactly is the case? And how does it relate to me?"

Tang Fei showed a troubled look, hesitating as if he had something to say but stopped himself.

"What? Is it inconvenient to disclose? If it’s not convenient to say, then forget it, I can’t put Director Tang in a difficult position."

"No, no..." Tang Fei hurriedly gestured with his hands, quickly saying, "I just don’t know how to start explaining it."

"Oh?"

After pondering for a moment, as if he had made a certain decision in his heart, Tang Fei looked at Zhong Tianque, and in a low voice said, "It’s because this case involves not only Your Highness but also Yu Huoshui... and the Second Prince..."

Zhong Tianque’s mind stirred, and he asked cheerfully, "Really? What kind of scandalous act has Yu Huoshui committed this time?"

"At the last Tian Dao exchange meeting, Your Highness visited White Crane Academy to inspect and encourage the students of the Phoenix Empire participating in the competition... Inspired by Your Highness’s speech, I was spurred on and managed to win the Mecha competition’s championship..."

Tang Fei attributed his success and the honors of winning the championship to Zhong Tianque, which pleased Zhong Tianque immensely.

Although he was caught up in the infamy of the "Diarrhea Prince" at that time, the results of the Tian Dao exchange meeting were still quite remarkable.

Tang Fei won the Mecha competition championship, and Shen Xinglan won the Martial Arts competition championship.

Hmm, Shen Xinglan lacked the awareness like Tang Fei and surely credited all the merit to himself...

"Your personal talent is inseparable from this achievement, winning the Mecha competition championship was well-deserved," Zhong Tianque also praised Tang Fei in return.

"But, due to being busy with work, Your Highness neglected to take care of your own health... Some unpleasant videos were circulated at that time..."

Zhong Tianque felt both ashamed and angry in his heart, yet he couldn’t show it on his face.

The more he cared, the more he acted nonchalant, saying, "Indeed, I was not feeling well, and unexpectedly, it provided an opportunity for some people with ulterior motives to take advantage, exploiting the situation to slander and defame me..."

He deliberately posed a contemplative expression, looking at Tang Fei and asking, "So? The case you’re talking about, is it related to this matter?"

"Yes," Tang Fei nodded and said, "When the Monitoring Bureau was investigating Yu Bainian’s Glory Interstellar Company, we found they had business dealings with a company called Dahe Commerce, and upon further investigation of Dahe Commerce, we discovered they had business transactions with some foreign media companies..."

"Dahe Commerce is registered in Guan Island, the legal representative is a woman over seventy years old... However, the actual controller of the company is called Li Zhi, who also happens to be Lei Xiangyang’s driver..."
