Chapter 173



“Feng Lao saved Li Hua. What could be the reason behind this? His face looked stoic and unreadable,” Lóng Wei murmured. He was in a dilemma about whether to reveal the truth to Li Hua or not. But if he kept her in the dark for too long, the consequences might be dangerous.

“If she faces him, Feng Lao will tell the truth,” Lóng Wei concluded. His inner voice told him not to do so. He needed to find the truth on his own. Someone from Qinping was also involved in it. Lóng Wei had thought of every minister in his mind, but he was unable to understand who could be the person who had enmity with the third rank official.

“Is it because of the prophecy?” Suddenly, the thought of Yuze’s prophecy reflected in his mind. “Xu Guang Li didn’t tell Li Hua about the prophecy. Xu Zifan happened to hear about it and told Li Hua about it two days ago. Did someone murder the Xu family because of the prophecy?” Lóng Wei was perplexed and placed his right hand near his mouth.

“Aish! Everything seems like a spider web.” Lóng Wei sighed and laid down on the grass. His hands went under his head, and he looked at the pear tree providing him with shade.

As the sun set, Lóng Wei decided to return to the cold palace. He reached the cold palace in the evening and found Li Hua near the cold palace’s gates. Along with her, Xu Zifan, Mingquan, and Huang Xi were present too.

“Where did His Highness go? We were worried to death, especially Princess Consort,” Huang Xi anxiously said.

“I had some work,” Lóng Wei said, and grasped Li Hua’s hand. He took her with him while she silently followed him.

“Where could the Sixth Prince go?” Huang Xi mumbled.

.....

“I think it is because of Shui Feng Lao. Let’s wait for Brother Lóng Wei’s response later. At present, he should be with his wife. Now, it is not a fight between two families but something more,” Mingquan opined. When he saw Shui Feng Lao smiling, he knew Lóng Wei was upset.

Li Hua and Lóng Wei reached the chamber when Li Hua asked him where he was. Lóng Wei remained silent and removed the sash from his waist.

“Did His Highness enjoy the dance?” Li Hua asked. She sounded upset, which Lóng Wei noticed easily.

“Why do you want to know?” Lóng Wei inquired, loosening the knots in his upper garment.He settled on the chaise lounge when Eunuch Qian He handed him water.

Li Hua noticed Lóng Wei’s hand while he attempted to take the silver glass from Qian He. She immediately grasped his hand and looked at the cut on his palm. “It seems His Highness’ hand got cut by a sharp object. Did something happen, Your Highness?” She asked with a worried expression.

Before Lóng Wei could tell, Li Hua asked Qian He about the first-aid kit. Qian He quickly walked out of the chamber to fetch it.

“It is a petty cut. The blood is already clotted. Why panic over such a small wound?” Lóng Wei asked her and pulled her down. He rested his head on her shoulder.

“Did His Highness get into a fight again? Did he get angry at anyone? Did he beat the person?” Li Hua asked several questions of him at once.

“The teacup broke in my grip,” Lóng Wei answered.

“Then, did the hot tea spilled on his hand? Did the Governor not provide a physician to His Highness?” She asked and stood up as Qian He returned, holding the first-aid box in his hand. She thanked him and put it on the table.

“I don’t allow anyone else to touch me except you,” Lóng Wei asserted.

“What about when the Prince was a kid? If he got injured, then he might have allowed the Royal Physician to treat his wounds,” Li Hua remarked, picking up the cotton pad to wipe the blood on the clot formed. She used liquid medicine and applied it to the wound.

“Ahh, my childhood days were different,” Lóng Wei stated. “My adulthood days are different,” he proclaimed.

Li Hua wrapped the bandage around his hand. “The wound was deep, Your Highness. His Highness should be careful,” she said, and tied a small knot on the back of his palm. Lóng Wei gestured to Qian He to leave, who silently left the room.

Li Hua put his hand down and closed the first-aid box. “Where was His Highness? Everyone was anxious for him,” Li Hua again asked him.

“I was strolling around the market. I will tell you when the time comes,” Lóng Wei replied. Li Hua nodded and downcast her eyelids.

“Is His Highness searching for the culprit? Why doesn’t he involve me too? After all, it is my revenge,” Li Hua opined.

“I will when the right time comes,” Lóng Wei assured her. “Li Hua, I want to ask a question from you,” he said.

“Sure,” Li Hua said as she was ready to answer his question.

“How much do you trust me?” Lóng Wei inquired.

Li Hua blinked a few times. “If I answer that I trust His Highness more than my life, then will he believe me?” She queried.

Lóng Wei smiled at her. “Are you sure?” He asked.

“Yes.” Li Hua said in a firm tone. “His Highness can test me,” she stated.

“Your words are supreme to me,” Lóng Wei said, and looked at his hand. “Li Hua, this fight is going to be tough. I am still unable to understand who could be your father’s enemy. Only three days left and we need to return too, else my father will get angry. Our presence in the palace is important too.” He tilted his head to look into her eyes.
