“Prince Lóng Wei, in the palace there are still some loyalists alive, who only consider Qizhen as their KIng. One of those loyalists told me to reveal to the Prince about Qizhen when he will be in Qijiang,” Wen Yazhu said while keeping his voice low.

“Who told you this?” Lóng Wei asked and glared into the eyes of Wen Yazhu. “I want the name. No beating around the bush,” Lóng Wei clarified to him.

“Eunuch Gao Bing,” Wen Yazhu replied.

Lóng Wei was shocked to find out that Gao Bing was a loyalist of Qizhen. That could not be possible. He had always thought ill of Lóng Wei. Gao Bing was one of those people, who wanted him to be dead. How come he was loyal to Qizhen? He refused to believe that.

“I told you not to lie to me!” Lóng Wei got furious as he grabbed Wen Yazhu from his collars.

“Prince Lóng Wei, I will never lie to the son of the man, who gave me the hope to live. Gao Bing is the loyalist to Qizhen,” Wen Yazhu remained firm in his statement. He kept his voice as low as possible. “If you do not believe me, then I will show you the evidence of it. At the moment, I cannot, but if somehow we reach my residence, then I can definitely prove Prince Lóng Wei,” He tried his best to make Lóng Wei trust him.

“If the Prince still does not believe me, then he is free to kill me right away. However, if die today, then the military will search my residence. Prince Lóng Wei should wipe out those evidence before Bai Juchen has his hands on them,” Wen Yazhu stated.

“Earlier you said that you wanted me to save you. Now, you want me to kill you. You have conflicting thoughts, Wen Yazhu. I am unable to understand you,” Lóng Wei said while being dubious of him. He was not ready to believe that Gao Bing was his well-wisher.

.....

“That is because Prince Lóng Wei is not ready to believe me. My life had one motto, which I fulfilled already. I will again repeat that I have no intention to lie to the Prince. If I die here, then he must go to my residence before anyone could arrive there and check the left cupboard beside my study table. The key to the cupboard is with me, which I will give him. He can check the letters that I have received from Gao Bing all these years. Other than that, he will find a red-colored scroll. It belongs to Qizhen. The Prince must read that scroll to find the answer to find his father,” Wen Yazhu explained well to Lóng Wei.

“Why did Qizhen give you the scroll? He could have handed it to someone in the capital!” Lóng Wei opined.

“Because I rescued Qizhen from a river body. I had gone to die there but ended up seeing my King’s body. He gained consciousness after a day. I was merely ten years old at that time. He told me not to die when I again attempted to take my life. The other day, he left mysteriously. But the scroll remained with me. It has a message in it that I could never crack. However, I can say one thing with confidence that it described a place which I never have heard of,” Wen Yazhu asserted.

Lóng Wei’s grip on his collars loosened when Wen Yazhu took the key from his pocket. He handed it to Lóng Wei and told him to leave for his residence before anyone else.

“He may be dead,” Lóng Wei said as he was slightly hurt to find his father’s condition at that time.

“We all believe that he is alive. I had told Eunuch Gao Bing once about the scroll. He was also unable to find the answer,” Wen Yazhu affirmed.

“How did you meet Gao Bing? You had lost everything then how you managed to do all these things?” Lóng Wei was curious to find out.

“Qizhen left a letter before leaving. He told me to seek Gao Bing’s help and take that letter to him at his residence. I traveled to Qinping and lived there for twenty years. However, when Wu Zihao was posted in Qijiang as the General, I shifted here,” Wen Yazhu truthfully told Lóng Wei.

Lóng Wei did not utter a single word for a few minutes and, then he looked into Wen Yazhu’s eyes. “Do you have any evidence that showed that Wu Zihao was trying to deceive the King?” Lóng Wei questioned him. “Can you prove that the explosives were sent to the North because Wu Zihao wanted a rebellion? If yes, then I will try everything to save your life,” Lóng Wei put forward a condition to him.

“Yes. I can prove that. I know who were the men, who were with Wu Zihao,” Wen Yazhu stated.

Lóng Wei looked at the key in his hand and gave it back to Wen Yazhu. “Keep it with you. I want you to tell the Crown Prince what I will tell you now,” Lóng Wei said with a stern tone. “I do not want any mistakes. Also, if I find that you lied to me, then I will not hesitate to kill you,” he warned Wen Yazhu.

“I will not give any chance to the Prince to complain,” Wen Yazhu proclaimed.

Lóng Wei hummed and he stepped back. He went to the door and opened it. The Crown Prince was standing with his hands behind his back. “Wen Yazhu is innocent. He killed Wu Zihao for a reason, which was hidden from everyone,” Lóng Wei pronounced.

Xiaoming furrowed his brows together and he walked into the hut.
