301 Philosophy of give and take

Lóng Wei stepped out of the carriage outside the Kang residence. He walked in, and the gatekeepers were slightly frightened to see him. They lowered their heads as Lóng Wei walked past them.

He found how peaceful everything was in the Kang’s residence. He stopped when he heard a feminine voice.

“Who are you?” The chief servant, Dong Yao, in his late thirties, asked Lóng Wei.

He turned to look at him. “Call Kang Xi outside,” Lóng Wei instructed him.

“How dare you pronounce the name my Lord?” Dong Yao turned furious.

“Lower your voice. I am the newly appointed Governor of Qinping, Qiu Lóng Wei,” Lóng Wei said with a broad smile. Dong Yao was stunned to hear him and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. He trembled in fear and immediately apologized for his misbehavior.

“Your Highness, I will show you the guest room. Kindly follow me,” Dong Yao humbly said. Lóng Wei scoffed at the sudden change in Dong Yao’s tone.

“No. I am not interested in keeping my conversation with Kang Xi within the four walls of the room,” Lóng Wei stated. “You can bring a chair for me,” he said, and gave him a smile.

“Yes, Your Highness,” Dong Yao acknowledged Lóng Wei’s command. Dong Yao shouted for a servant and asked him to bring the chair for Lóng Wei.

.....

The most frightening thing was that Lóng Wei had brought a sword with him. Dong Yao gulped every time his eyes fell on it. He told Lóng Wei that he would call Kang Xi from his room after Lóng Wei sat on the chair.

“Call his bastard son too,” Lóng Wei said. Dong Yao nodded his head and quickly went inside to inform Kang Xi about Lóng Wei’s presence.

Chang Shi had carried the wooden box in his hands as he arrived at the Kang residence. Lóng Wei thanked him and asked him to put that down on the floor.

“I have informed the royal inspectors to come here,” Chang Shi informed Lóng Wei as he stood on his left.

“Great,” Lóng Wei replied, and looked at one of the servants. He asked him to bring one more chair.

“I am fine this way,” Chang Shi said, keeping a tiny smile on his lips.

“But I want you to sit,” Lóng Wei stated. The servant left on his instruction and, after a few minutes, returned with a wooden chair. Chang Shi took a seat on it and asked Lóng Wei if it would be alright to create a scene in the Kang’s residence.

“Of course. Kang Xi and his son always made me feel humiliated in the palace among my people. I believe in the philosophy of give and take,” Lóng Wei pronounced with a smirk. The servants had started to gather. Some stayed far from Lóng Wei’s sight.

Kang Xi was with his wife when Dong Yao heard about Lóng Wei’s presence in the residence. He wondered why he had come. He asked his wife to stay in and dashed out of the room to the front yard of the residence.

His foot slipped in the water that was on the floor and he fell. He whimpered in pain. Dong Yao helped him stand up, and Kang Xi shouted at him for not cleaning the place well.

He walked ahead and managed to reach the front yard with one limped leg. He wondered why Lóng Wei was seated on the chair and could not recognize Chang Shi. He greeted Lóng Wei when his eyes fell on the wooden box. It was from his residence, but why was it outside?

“Kang Xi, how are you?” Lóng Wei asked him. “You didn’t even give me your best wishes after session ended,” he stated.

“I was a little stressed at that time, Your Highness. I give my best wishes to Prince Lóng Wei’s bright future,” Kang Xi stated, and looked at the sword in Lóng Wei’s hand which was inside the sheath. He wondered why he had brought the sword with him.

“Did you ask Kang Huijuan to tell the truth?” Lóng Wei asked Kang Xi.

“Your Highness,” Kang Xi stepped forward, “my son is telling the truth. Xin Jue lied to you. I can even tell His Highness about the man who asked Xin Jue to lie to him.”

Lóng Wei could not stop laughing at Kang Xi. “Your believed the lies of your son,” he said, after stopping his laughter.

“Father, we will present him tomorrow before the King. Prince Lóng Wei has merely came to threaten us,” Kang Huijuan’s voice fell into their ears and he halted next to his father. He flinched his eyebrows to see the wooden box that he had asked Wu Jin to keep.

“You always talked about my ordinations, but I would like to ask you from where you got these wonderful teachings to lie,” Lóng Wei said with a menacing look.

“I suppose that it was your beloved mother, who gave you such wonderful teachings,” he didn’t hesitate to give that statement. Chang Shi smiled a little to hear Lóng Wei.

Lóng Wei hadn’t forgotten how Kang Huijuan always dragged his mother whenever he made a mistake. Now was the time when he would take revenge for every single wrong thing that Kang Huijuan did to him.

Kang Huijuan’s mother, Kang Ting Xi, who was at the other end of the front yard, heard Lóng Wei’s words. Kang Cha Ying had also come after the servant informed her that Lóng Wei had come to see her father and brother.

“Shut your mouth, Lóng Wei,” Kang Huijuan got angry because Lóng Wei pointed a finger at his mother.

Kang Xi apologized to Lóng Wei for the informal tone which his son used towards him.

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

Lóng Wei stood up from the chair and unsheathed the sword in his hand. He walked to them while his eyes were fixated on Kang Huijuan.

“How can you put the blame for your wrongdoing on another man?” Lóng Wei inquired and came to a halt in front of him. He glanced at Kang Xi when his eyes fell on Kang Ting Xi.

“Your dear son is putting the blame for his wrongdoings on someone else. Will you not scold him? You failed to do this when your son was young, but today you must do it,” Lóng Wei affirmed.

“Don’t drag her into this. Don’t show off your power either. You are not the King, who could threaten us in this way,” Kang Huijuan asserted.

Lóng Wei lifted his sword and put it on Kang Xi’s neck, shocking everyone present in the front yard.

“I have enough authority to decapitate your dear father’s head,” Lóng Wei said as he scowled at Kang Huijuan.
