Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince Chapter 271

271 Bunch of Idiots

Lóng Wei and Xiwan t in the pavilion of the manor. “You have been doing a good job these days,” Lóng Wei praised him and patted his shoulder.

“Your Highness, why do you want to spare them? It is a good chance to make them suffer. This is the golden chance to remove them from your lives,” Xiwan affird. He was confused as to why Lóng Wei decided to go easy on them.

“Xiwan, I will use Kang Xi. I need to beco the Governor. After what Lianying did in the court, only a few ministers would oppose . Also, the current Governor will not step down from the position easily. If I get the Pri Minister’s support, then no one would speak up.” Lóng Wei’s smile widened, and he turned to sit on the wooden handrail. His hands were crossed around his chest.

“His Highness is smart. He knows how to use a person according to his situation,” Xiwan praised Lóng Wei.

“I think Kang Xi will be useful to for a long ti,” Lóng Wei asserted. “You need to be careful about our als. Kang Huijuan may try to harm Li Hua and ,” he stated.

“Yes, Your Highness. I always remain extra cautious about yours and Princess Consort’s als,” Xiwan replied. Lóng Wei gave him a tiny smile and recalled how they had both t.

“Xiwan, don’t you want to kill those bastards who used to bully you?” Lóng Wei’s sudden question bewildered Xiwan. It had been three years since he had been in the palace, but Lóng Wei never asked him that question. “I killed the person who killed your father, but you told to spare those bunch of idiots, who may have beco nobles now,” Lóng Wei stated.

“I have moved on, Your Highness. My heart isn’t as strong as His Highness. Forgive ,” Xiwan said, and lowered his head.

“You should say your heart isn’t as evil as mine,” Lóng Wei corrected him. Xiwan looked at him. “If I had been at your place, I would have crushed them, first and then tortured them to the extent that they would have forgotten their own identities.” His words intimidated Xiwan. He knew Lóng Wei was good, but sotis, he would speak in a way that would make him tremble in fear.

.....

“I noticed that His Highness is refraining from using violence this ti,” Xiwan stated.

“Because I am married now. I cannot put my wife in danger. I don’t want to leave her alone for months if I get punished for serving the term in the cold palace,” Lóng Wei explained to him.

“That’s good to hear,” Xiwan said. “I must take my leave, Your Highness,” he stated, and bowed before Lóng Wei. He humd while Xiwan left the pavilion.

Lóng Wei looked up at the sky. “It is clear today. Shall I take out Li Hua in the evening?” He murmured.

Xiaoming put the last scroll on top of the stack of scrolls. Sun Fuguo stepped up when Xiaoming asked him to take those scrolls to the Bureau.

“Go in the carriage with a few soldiers. Give them to the Head Chief Xuan,” Xiaoming instructed Su Fuguo. He picked up those scrolls and bowed at Xiaoming before leaving.

Xiaoming leaned back in his chair and clasped his hands. “Brother Lóng Wei is indeed ten steps ahead of everyone. He caught two birds with one arrow,” Xiaoming mumbled and smiled.

Now, he was waiting for Liu Jin Yu to co and answer him. He looked at the ti and found it was his lunch ti. However, he wasn’t ready to eat als. He wanted the answer desperately. The curfew from the princes had been lifted, so he could go out. But what if she arrived at the palace?

“Just say yes, Jin Yu, then I will fight with everyone to marry you,” Xiaoming murmured.

A maidservant walked in and inford him about the visit of the Queen. Xiaoming imdiately stood up and soon, his mother entered.

“Greetings to the Royal Mother,” Xiaoming bowed while lifting his hands. Zhu Liling gestured to the maidservant to leave and asked Xiaoming if he could lower his hands. He did so and peered at his mother.

Zhu Liling walked up to him and hugged Xiaoming. It perplexed Xiaoming, and he hugged her back. “Forgive . Because of my servant, your life fell into danger,” she said in a low voice. She pulled away and looked into the eyes of Xiaoming.

“Royal Mother, no one knew that Eunuch Lianying would do such a thing,” Xiaoming answered.

“However, he was from my manor. I should have been extra careful,” Zhu Liling said. Xiaoming made her sit on a chair and asked her not to think about it anymore.

“Thanks to Brother Lóng Wei, the real culprit was caught,” Xiaoming said and smiled. He then settled down in his chair.

“Is the Crown Prince not scared?” Zhu Liling asked.

“What does the Royal Mother imply?” Xiaoming was unable to grasp her question.

“Lóng Wei wants to be the Governor of Qinping,” she inford Xiaoming. “It is not easy to get the position of Governor,” she stated.

“Brother Lóng Wei deserves to be Governor. His presence of mind, his tactics, will benefit us to grow the Kingdom in a better way,” Xiaoming stated.

“Prince Lóng Wei should not beco Governor. He will start troubling people around him and may even try to go after the throne,” Zhu Liling stated.

“Mother, it won’t happen. I would be glad if Brother Lóng Wei beca the Governor. I will be the first one to support him. He isn’t the person as I perceived him for years,” Xiaoming replied, keeping a tiny smile on his lips.

“What if it’s all an act?” Zhu Liling asked him.

Xiaoming skeptically gazed at his mother. “What does the Royal Mother an?” He arched his brow.

“Monk Yuze has always supported Lóng Wei. What if it was all a plan by both of them? Lianying worked for for years. He has a good eye on such matters. Prince Lóng Wei may be portraying himself well, but we all know how he is! If he can kill-” Zhu Liling could not complete her words as Xiaoming stopped her.

“I believe in Brother Lóng Wei rather than the traitor Eunuch, who was after my life, rely because I refused to marry Cha Ying. What if the Pri Minister is involved in this? Why does the Royal Mother always bla Lóng Wei? His life was not better than mine. However, he chanted it to be happy. On the other hand, I could not do it. I urge my Mother not to speak against Lóng Wei in front of . I will not tolerate it next ti.”

Xiaoming took a stand for Lóng Wei. Earlier, his mother had forced him to marry Cha Ying. She was now sowing the seeds of suspicion in Xiaoming’s mind for Lóng Wei.

“I have work to do. The Royal Mother must leave,” Xiaoming said as he averted his gaze from Zhu Liling. The Queen stood up and left in anger.

Xiaoming pressed the temple of his forehead. His mother ca into the words of Lianying and it was shocking for him.
