Chapter 166



Cheng Shi glanced at Qiu Mu in amusement. “What does the Second Prince want me to do?”

“Go to Xinshui Town and kill Lóng Wei. You are one of the best swordsmen in the Kingdom. No one can escape your blade,” Qiu Mu told Cheng Shi while looking at his sword which was on the floor. “In Xinshui, Lóng Wei has gone to spend time with his wife. You must harm him only. Hei Huang Xi and Brother Mingquan are also present in Xinshui, so be careful of them,” Qiu Mu explained to Chang Shi the work he had to do.

Chang Shi picked up the teacup and sipped the tea from it. “I do not need money this time,” he stated and put the teacup on the table. He peered into the eyes of Qiu Mu, “I need something more from you.”

“I will give you. What do you want?” Qiu Mu questioned him.

“I want to be the Governor of Qinping,” Chang Shi stated. “Make me the Governor as soon as I kill Prince Lóng Wei,” he stated.

“It is not difficult for me. I will do it. You will become the Governor of Qinping if you kill Lóng Wei. He is in Xinshui for three more days. You need to kill him within these three days. Don’t harm anyone else,” Qiu Mu again instructed him.

“Your Highness, I understand,” Chang Shi said and again picked the teacup. Qiu Mu thanked him for agreeing to him.

“May I know why His Highness wants Prince Lóng Wei to die? He isn’t even a threat to his position,” Chang Shi asserted and looked into the teacup.

.....

“He can be a threat in the near future. I don’t want such trouble in my life,” Qiu Mu stated and clenched his fists. He looked down at the table. Raising the teacup, he finished the tea in a go.

“Is it because of the prophecy?” Chang Shi questioned him.

Qiu Mu chuckled and started to laugh. He didn’t believe in prophecy and then Lóng Wei’s acts proved the prophecy wrong. “The prophecy has nothing to do with this. Since the day he returned to the Cold Palace, he has gotten on my nerves,” Qiu Mu affirmed and plonked the teacup on the table.

Chang Shi hummed. “I shall leave, Your Highness,” he stood up. Qiu Mu also got up from his seat and again asked him to be careful. Chang Shi left the Second Prince’s manor soon after.

“Elder First Brother, do men really enjoy the dances?” Li Hua asked Xu Zifan after much hesitation. She never had such a conversation with her brother. It was a little awkward for her, but she was desperate to know what Lóng Wei liked.

“Yes. Are you tense thinking that your husband may get seduced to see them?” Xu Zifan asked her directly. Her cheeks and ears turned red like a ripened tomato. It was the first time she heard the word ‘seduce’ from her brother’s mouth. Probably the reason was that she never talked about such things with him.

“Li Hua, it is a source of entertainment, not getting seduced every time. Prince Lóng Wei loves you only. No one can capture his heart. So, you should not need to be insecure,” Xu Zifan assured his little sister. He was surprised to find that Li Hua grew up so much that he could have such a conversation with her. He remembered how Li Hua used to get shy before asking about Feng Lao. Lóng Wei changed her in many aspects.

“Elder First Brother, Mother always used to say that a woman’s most precious jewel is her husband. Since in the palace, the Princes are allowed to have many women for them, so I get insecure. The game of heart is unpredictable,” Li Hua told her brother, who agreed with her words.

“Prince Lóng Wei is different from other men, Li Hua. I won’t deny that there are many more beautiful women than you in the Kingdom, but it isn’t about beauty or charm. Prince Lóng Wei told me that he saw the concern for him in your eyes on your first encounter with him. He never saw that concern even in his mother’s eyes. So, his love for you only increases,” Xu Zifan made her understand.

“Elder First Brother, I want to find out about his past. You have told me to leave it, but I cannot. Lately, I found many things which troubled me. Until I find the answer, I will not be able to understand His Highness fully,” Li Hua stated. Xu Zifan didn’t stop her this time. He could see that Li Hua spoke this as Lóng Wei’s wife. It would be good if she found out everything about him.

“As my sister likes, she must do that,” Xu Zifan answered.

“Elder First Brother, in the palace, no one likes the presence of His Highness,” Li Hua said. The pain and sadness in her eyes were visible. “Everyone thinks bad about him. Though His Majesty gets emotional while seeing all this, as the King he cannot stop himself from announcing punishment to his youngest son. I want to gain his lost respect. I want everyone to respect His Highness. I promised him this, but I don’t know how to do it.” The confusion was clearly visible on her face.

“Li Hua, Prince Lóng Wei doesn’t care what people think of him. I believe that he developed this kind of personality to make his own authority among the five other princes. Also, Prince Lóng Wei is prophesied to be the dragon’s son. Do you know its true meaning?” Xu Zifan queried Li Hua, who shook her head.

“The ruler. Prince Lóng Wei was born with the stars of the King,” Xu Zifan answered. Li Hua’s eyes grew big to hear that.

“Now, if he were always kind, gentle, and graceful like the other princes, he would have died long ago. It could be one of the reasons that he showed himself as a person who only creates troubles. In the palace, Prince Lóng Wei can trust only a few, maybe two or three people. Rest are his enemies. It is one of the reasons that our father didn’t want you to marry him because your life would have come in danger. I thought about this the previous night,” Xu Zifan explained to her in detail.

“I decide to know the evil, to end the evil. That’s why I chose evil instead of good,” Li Hua said. Xu Zifan arched his brows in confusion. “His Highness told me this. “I am still unable to understand what kind of ‘evil’ he wanted to know,” Li Hua proclaimed.

“The Sixth Prince is mysterious,” Xu Zifan stated.

“Is the Elder First Brother not scared like my father that I can get harmed? If he knew about the old monk’s prophecy, he could have stopped His Highness to marry me. Since he discussed it with you already,” Li Hua said. “I think Shui Feng Lao is alive. My Elder First Brother also knows about it, but he will not tell me too,” Li Hua suddenly brought up the topic of Feng Lao.

“I thought that with Prince Lóng Wei, you would be happier. Also, even if Shui Feng Lao had been alive, I would not have let you marry him,” Xu Zifan pronounced. Li Hua was shocked to hear him.

“Why?”

“Because he doesn’t deserve you. Now, you won’t ever think of Feng Lao. You have already stepped forward in your married life. A dead man’s name has not taken,” Xu Zifan told her. Li Hua hummed and kept looking at her brother.
