484 Don’t let Zedong use you [Bonus chapter]

“I do not want to hear any lecture from you,” Lóng Wei coldly said to Su Yichen.

“It is not a lecture,” Su Yichen clarified. “It is telling the manners to the Prince,” he added.

“Sadly, I didn’t take the lessons of manners. So, I don’t know about them,” Lóng Wei replied.

“The Prince didn’t get a beating, that’s why he became like this,” Su Yichen affirmed.

“Good that you realized,” Lóng Wei scoffed at him and told him to leave.

“All I want to say is that Prince Lóng Wei should not leave his father’s side. The person who started this must be punished,” Su Yichen told Lóng Wei and bowed to him before leaving the room.

Lóng Wei chuckled and turned. “At least listen to my answer, Su Yichen.” He also turned to look at the prince.

“I won’t punish him,” Lóng Wei stated.

“Because your lord was so scared to start a battle against his own younger brother, then how can I do that? I will die but will not intervene in the matter of two brothers,” Lóng Wei announced. Su Yichen had nothing left to say to the prince. He merely bowed to Lóng Wei and walked out of the door.

.....

Su Yichen went to the kitchen and looked at Qiu Qizhen, who was instructing the chef. Two servants carried the tray and followed Qiu Qizhen, who saw Su Yichen.

Qiu Qizhen asked the servants to go ahead and he came with Su Yichen.

“The Prince lacks manners,” Su Yichen said.

“I know.”

“My lord, the Prince isn’t ready to help you. He is blaming my lord for no reason,” Su Yichen asserted.

“Lóng Wei has numerous reasons to blame me,” Qiu Qizhen replied. “Ignore the child’s mannerisms,” he urged.

“My Lord, a person is known by his behavior. Prince Lóng Wei doesn’t want to help his own father and he blindly trusts Zedong. I cannot understand why Prince Lóng Wei is doing that,” Su Yichen stated.

“He wants to have a peaceful life. I respect his decision. I never did anything for him in my entire life. Listening to his complaints is all I can do,” Qiu Qizhen said.

Su Yichen opened the umbrella and dropped Qiu Qizhen outside his room.

“Have your dinner and sleep,” Qiu Qizhen told Yichen before going inside.

“I wish my lord’s pain will end too,” Su Yichen whispered and walked away.

Qiu Qizhen watched Lóng Wei, who was looking at the food.

“You did not start eating,” Qizhen asked as he took his seat around the table. “Did you wait for me?” He asked.

“No.” Lóng Wei quickly ate a dumpling. “I was waiting for it to get cold,” he said and chewed it. Qizhen smiled a little and picked up the chopsticks.

“Grandmother is dead too. She called me before dying,” Lóng Wei said. He looked into his father’s eyes.

“She said mother had left a message for me. Grandmother even handed me the key, but when I checked the drawer it was empty. Do you know anything about this?” He curiously asked.

“Sadly, I do not know about this. However, if it was in the palace, then Zedong might have checked it. The key can be made again,” he asserted.

Lóng Wei frowned to hear it and resumed eating.

Once they finished eating, Lóng Wei told Qizhen that he would leave in the morning.

“So early?” Qizhen didn’t want Lóng Wei to leave.

“I got my answers, so I must return,” Lóng Wei answered. “You don’t need to come to the palace. I will handle the matter in my own way,” he advised Qizhen and picked up the glass of water.

“So, you don’t want me to come there? I thought I must do something good for my son,” Qizhen said with an upset look.

“It is better for you not to do anything,” Lóng Wei stated. “If I have to speak the truth, then I will say that I don’t want you to die. Live as much as you can. See my growth from afar. I have mentioned this already, but I’ll say once more. I do not want to disappoint my wife for not protecting you.”

The meeting with Qizhen made Lóng Wei realize that he didn’t deserve to die. He would not be able to watch his death.

“I understand,” Qizhen replied.

“Give me the last answer. Why did you confidently say that the King was behind the Xu family massacre?” Lóng Wei was desperate to know this.

“Zedong found out that Yuze made a prediction for Li Hua. She was chosen by heaven for you. The King didn’t want this to happen. As I said earlier too, Zedong wants you to control his way,” Qizhen revealed the truth to Lóng Wei.

“Are you telling the truth?” Lóng Wei didn’t want to believe it.

“Yes.”

“But Father also allowed me to marry Li Hua,” Lóng Wei said with confusion.

“I do not know why he allowed it,” Qizhen truthfully said.

“Why that day? Why not before that day? If Father had to do it, then he got many chances,” Lóng Wei opined and knitted his brows.

“That’s what confused me. Why did Zedong choose that day? You have to find it yourself,” Qizhen stated.

“Did Father find out that I was behind Li Hua?” Lóng Wei murmured.

“Behind Li Hua?” Qizhen was perplexed to hear him.

“I was locked in the cold palace that time. When I met Li Hua, I decided to pursue her since she saved my life and showed her concern for me. She was not scared of me,” Lóng Wei said with a smile.

Qizhen’s heart clenched at hearing his son’s words. He suffered so much because of his father’s incapabilities. When every child was playing and having fun, Lóng Wei was locked in the four walls of the cold palace. Zedong made Lóng Wei do sin and because of that people hated him.

“Lóng Wei, will you fulfill my one wish?” Qizhen asked with eyes full of hope.

“Say it,” Lóng Wei said.

“Don’t let Zedong use you anymore,” Qizhen said and extended his hand out. “Promise me, Lóng Wei. You will not let him use you. I will not do anything if you fulfill this wish of mine.”

Lóng Wei nodded his head and placed his hand above Qizhen’s palm. “I promise,” he said.
