230 Covered in Blood
Lóng Wei tightened his grip around the sword and looked around. By now, the enemy in the palace must have found out that he had gone out with Feng Lao. He had asked Xiwan to spread in the palace that Lóng Wei went out to fetch Shui Xiaoqing.
They both heard the sound of the horses and turned to face them. The chauffeur on the carriage pulled the reins on the horses upon seeing that two men were in the middle of the road.
The royal inspector who had accompanied Shui Xiaoqing got off the horse and walked towards them. He recognized Feng Lao and greeted him.
Shui Xiaoqing, who was inside the carriage, opened the window and asked the chauffeur why the carriage was stopped. Feng Lao quickly went to open the carriage’s door, and his father was surprised to see him.
Feng Lao asked his father to come out of the carriage. Shui Xiaoqing was perplexed to see the reaction of his son, and he stepped out of the carriage. “What are you doing here, son? You told me that you had some work in-”
Feng Lao didn’t let him complete the words as he asked him, “Father, who was the person who told you to help him in the murder of the Xu family?”
Shui Xiaoqing gulped and confusedly glanced at his son. Why was Feng Lao suddenly asking such a question? His eyes fell on Lóng Wei, and he understood everything. He realized why the king had sent him the summons.
“Answer him,” Lóng Wei told Shui Xiaoqing. He furrowed his brows and decided to lie.
“I didn’t help anyone,” Shui Xiaoqing stated. Lóng Wei noticed the beads of sweat on the temple of Shui Xiaoqing’s forehead.
.....
“Father, Li Hua, and Xu Zifan are alive,” Feng Lao informed his father. The news shocked Shui Xiaoqing. “Please tell me who did all this. If you won’t, then the entire Shui family has to die,” Feng Lao begged his father to tell the name and pressured him.
A speeding arrow came in their direction. However, Lóng Wei’s reflex acted and he swiftly turned back. He pulled out the sword and its blade hit the arrow’s body. It fell to the ground.
“Tell the name, Shui Xiaoqing, if you don’t want to die!” Lóng Wei shouted when they all heard the running footsteps. Mingquan and Chang Shi were shocked to see more than twenty assassins.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
Feng Lao protected his father by standing in front of him. A fight broke out, and Lóng Wei stepped forward to fight. His doubts had turned clear like water. Someone from the palace was behind all this.
“Feng Lao, tell Shui Xiaoqing to tell the person’s name whom he aided!” Lóng Wei shouted again and dodged the attack of the first attacker. He pierced his abdomen with the sword, yanked it out, and kicked another one in his left before slashing his neck.
The soldiers who had accompanied Shui Xiaoqing also started to fight with the assassins. However, they were too powerful to kill those soldiers.
Mingquan and Chang Shi ran at their full speed in Lóng Wei’s direction to save him. For Mingquan, it was unbelievable that whatever Lóng Wei had thought turned out to be true.
Feng Lao took his father to the other side of the carriage and asked him to say the name.
“I cannot tell the name even if I die today,” Shui Xiaoqing asserted. “Prince Lóng Wei has no position to save us. Don’t trust him. Some secrets shall remain buried,” Shui Xiaoqing stated. He got terrified as the clanking of swords became intense.
“Let’s run away from here,” Shui Xiaoqing suggested to his son. Feng Lao was stunned to hear him and held his father’s arm.
“Father, how could you do this? I remained quiet all this time because I thought everyone was dead in the Xu family. At least think about Li Hua, whom you called your daughter once. Did you even have any idea of how Li Hua lived all this time? Xu Zifan lost his right arm that night. At least for them, please tell me the name,” Feng Lao made his father understand.
He saw an assassin who had come behind the carriage. Feng Lao unsheathed the sword that Lóng Wei had handed him earlier and killed him after fighting with him for a few minutes.
“Father, please tell me. His Majesty will give us the death penalty. He already knew about all this. That’s why you are summoned here,” Feng Lao told his father.
Shui Xiaoqing wiped the sweat that had formed on his forehead using his sleeves. He was in a dilemma about whether to give the name or not.
“The person is too dangerous. No one will survive if I say the name,” Shui Xiaoqing told his son. They heard a weird sound and looked above. Two assassins had jumped over the carriage’s roof. Feng Lao pulled his father away. The two jumped down and attacked Feng Lao.
But Lóng Wei came to his rescue and killed them from behind. Feng Lao looked at Lóng Wei and saw that his hands were covered in blood. He looked behind Lóng Wei and saw the dead bodies covered in blood.
Lóng Wei pushed Feng Lao away and pointed his sword at Shui Xiaoqing’s father. “Tell me the name, Shui Xiaoqing. If you don’t, then I will make sure to kill your son, your wife, and every single person in your family. Also, I will force you to kill them,” Lóng Wei threatened him.
“Your Highness, I am asking my father. Please stay out of it,” Feng Lao urged.
“You must stay out of it now,” Lóng Wei aggressively said. He gradually closed the distance between him and Shui Xiaoqing. He was trembling in fear with each step that Lóng Wei took toward him. The pointed tip of the blade had bored into the skin of his neck and his breath hitched.
“Shui Xiaoqing, if I want I can save your entire family even from the deadly punishment. At least, think about your son, who is still young.” Lóng Wei started to manipulate his thoughts.
Mingquan told Shui Xiaoqing not to hide the truth and to tell them who was behind all this.
Lóng Wei tilted his head as he heard another shooting arrow. It was seconds away from Shui Xiaoqing to hit him in the neck. His eyes widened as the arrow hit.
