Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

"What the hell was that!?"

Fang Yunru was shouting in the carriage as the duo headed back to the Fang Clan.

"Fang Chen, what you have done, ah! Damn it, why the hell did I not stop you!?" 

He was rubbing his forehead, worried about the consequences of what transpired in the Gao Clan.

Ye Tian Yun was not responding to him, he had leaned back on the seat and his eyes were closed.

"Don't you ignore me, Fang Chen!" Fang Yunru was getting agitated by Ye Tian Yun's behavior, "What will you say to Uncle and Aunt? Can't you see the bigger picture here? They are doing all this for you and you went there, ruining everything!" 

"Come on, FangChen, don't ignore me!" 

Ye Tian Yun exhaled and opened his eyes.

Glancing at Fang Yunru, he first looked at the prompt above his head.

[Fang Yunru.. 5 Stars Favourability. Trusts you, but is not happy with the decisions you make. Is worired about you.](Fang Chen)

"Second Brother," Ye Tian Yun said, "It's you who's failing to see the bigger picture here. And first of all, I have no intentions of getting married. Not because I don't want to burden myself, but because I don't want to create another nuisance in my life."

"That's the same thing." Fang Yunru gave him a stare.

"Hm?"

"Leave that," Fang Yunru frowned, "At least tell me why you want the Thunder Valley? In fact, why would you want any land? Do you want to settle down there? Or… is there a secret treasure?"

Ye Tian Yun rolled his eyes, "There's nothing as such. I just want it, that's it."

"Then why don't you chose anything else?" Fang Yunru asked, "There must be some specific reason why you want that valley, right? It's alright if you don't wish to tell me, but don't act recklessly."

Ye Tian Yun nodded and remained silent.

The carriage remained quiet for a long time.

"Young Masters, we are about to reach the Fang Clan."

Ao Jia called out from outside.

Fang Yunru turned at Ye Tian Yun and asked, "Xiao Chen, are you conscious of your decision? Or are you just being playful? Give me an honest answer."

Ye Tian Yun stared at him for some time before letting out a sigh and then said, "Second Brother, we must get the Thunder Valley. If the marriage breaks, I will join Crown Prince's faction."

"What!?" Fang Yunru stood up, "Are you mad? Don't you dare say this in front of anyone else!"

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Then help me convince the Gao Clan. I don't want to join Crown PRince's faction, but I will if I see no other way."

Fang Yunru frowned, and after a few moments of silence, he said, "Alright, Xiao Chen, I will support you in this. But only if you promise me one thing."

"Hm? And that is?"

"You will inform me first if you ever decide to join the Crown Prince's faction."

"Hm, alright."

The carriage returned to its silence.

After a few minutes, the carriage began to slow down.

They had reached the Fang Clan.

"Um… Young Masters… you should come out…."

Ao Jia's nervous voice entered the carriage.

Fang Yunru frowned and poked his head out of the carriage.

*flap*

In the next instant, he moved away from the window.

Ye Tian Yun frowned at him but was confused upon seeing the paled expression on the former's face.

"What happened?" He asked.

Fang Yunru gulped, "Xiao Chen, I will keep my word and support you in whatever you say, but don't mess it up."

"What's going on?"

"Let's get out first," Fang Yunru took a deep breath and gestured at Ye Tian Yun to move, "You go first. I will support you, but I don't dare them to head-on."

"Them?" Ye Tian Yun had a hunch about what was going on, so he moved and stepped out of the carriage.

The scene informed him surprised him, even though he had half expected this to happen.

In front of him, all the higher-ups from the Fang Clan were standing, including the Fang couple and Fang Chen's birth mother, Fang Bai.

Many elders were standing, too, including his uncle Fang Ji - Fang Yunru's father.

Everyone was staring at Ye Tian Yun, who had just stepped out of the carriage.

Ye Tian Yun, having expected this scene, smiled at them, "Ah, what happened? Is someone important guest arriving today?"

Behind him, Fang Yunru also quietly stepped outside.

"Brat, where have you been!?" Prime Minister Fang growled.

He was extremely displeased with Fang Chen's actions.

'I am trying to improve his future, and this brat doesn't understand anything!'

He frowned at Ye Tian Yun, waiting for the latter's response.

However, Ye Tian Yun wasn't affected by this.

"I went to the Gao Clan."

"Hm," Fang Yuan pursed his lips, "And why did you go to the Gao Clan?"

"It was a simple chat," Ye Tian Yun revealed, "Not a big deal. I gifted something to Clan Head Gao, and then when he wanted to return the favor, I asked for something in return. However, Clan Head Gao went back on in words, and I returned home."

Prime Minister Fang Yuna narrowed his eyes, then glancing at Fang Yunru, he asked, "Is that all?"

Fang Yunru coughed, "Ahem, Uncle, this is the gist of it."

Fang Yuan narrowed his eyes and sent a spirit message.

<<Fang Yunru, scratch the back of your head if you Fang Chen has caused trouble.>>

Fang Yunru scratched the back of his head, making Prime Minister Fang Yuan's eyes twitch.

"Alright," He said, "Come in now, let's go to my study."

He then glanced at the elders, "Everyone, I guess we were worried over nothing. Fang Chen's health is still a bit unstable; let's forgive him for this time."

The Elders had a casual chat, and everyone dispersed.

However, not everything turned and left.

A few of them remained.

Fang Yuan didn't say anything to them, and glancing at the two youngsters in front of him, he said, "You two, follow me."

Turning around, he headed for the study room.

Along with Ye Tian Yun and Fang Yunru, three more people followed.

Madam Fang, Miss Fang Bai, and Second Master Fang Ji.

Staring at the disappearing backs, Ao Jia, who had already jumped down from the carriage, but had hidden behind the carriage, slowly poked his head and gulped.

'Shit shit shit, will I lose my job?'

'God damn, I should not have taken Fang Chen with me!'

He knew nothing would happen to Young Master Fang Chen or YoungMaster Fang Yunru, but this was not the case for himself.

Ao Jia was just a newly hired guard. He was dispensable, and whatever happened just now was a good excuse for the higher-ups who saw him as a nuisance to kick him out of the clan.

'Sigh, I can only leave this to fate….'

With their shoulders dropped down, Ao Jia and the carriage driver took the carriage back to the stables.

…

Fang Yuan took his seat in the study room and waited for everyone to enter.

When Second Master Fang Ji had entered, he said, "Brother, close the door and start the soundproof array."

Fang Ji nodded and prepared the array after locking the door.

Fang Yunru gulped and lowered his head.

"What's going on?" Madam Fang asked.

She was confused by the weird actions of her husband.

"I want to know too," Prime Minister Fang Yuan replied, and then glancing at Fang Chen, he asked, "Tell us what happened. In detail. And I want to know everything."

Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Well, as I said earlier, I gave Clan Head Gao a nice meeting gift."

"What was the gift?" Prime Minister Fang Yuan asked.

"Thousand Year Old Ginseng."

"What!?" The adults in the room were shocked.

Ye Tian YUn nodded.

"Where did you get such an expensive gift?" Madam Fang asked.

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "I don't remember. But I had it in my spatial ring."

"What happened next?"

"Clan Head Gao insisted on returning the favor because coincidentally, he was looking for a Ginseng for Madam Gao." Ye Tian YUn replied.

"Yes," Someone from behind said.

It was Second Master Fang Ji.

"Brother Gao had asked my help in this matter. I have arranged a Hundred Year Ginseng, though it cost me a lot of favors."

"Oh?" Fang Yuan frowned, "why wasn't I aware of this?"

Fang Ji smiled, "Big brother, you were busy with Royal Palace stuff, so I didn't trouble you with this and handled it myself."

"Hm, alright," Fang Yuan nodded, and then turning his attention at Ye Tian Yun, he asked, "What did you ask in return?"

"Thunder Valley."

Prime Minister Fang Yuan frowned, "What?"

"Thunder Valley."

"He rejected you, right?" Prime Minister Fang Yuan asked.

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "Yes. He said it's an old trade route, and the Gao Clan will not give it up, even though it's rarely used."

Prime Minster Fang smiled, "He said that?"

Ye Tian Yun nodded, "His exact words."

"Alright, let's assume this to be true then," Prime Minister asked, "What happened after that?"

Ye Tian Yun shrugged, "I simply said, it's either the Thunder Valley or nothing."

"Hm?" Fang Yuan nodded, "Gao Kang will never agree on handing over the Thunder Valley; I can understand this. I am sure he must have asked you to ask for something else."

"Yeah, he did," Ye Tian YUn nodded his head, "But as I said earlier, it's Thunder Valley or nothing."

"Oh?" Prime Minister Fang Yuan smiled, "Then I am sure you must have played a trump card. Tell me, Fang Chen, did you threaten them to break off the marriage?"
