“Why did His Highness lie to me? He did not either bring the tiffin box with him,” Li Hua said and looked at his hands. He immediately hid his hands behind.

“Prince Lóng Wei sent Commander Huang Xi with a well-formulated lie thinking his wife will never find out. Does he think I am a fool?” Li Hua asked.

“You are not a fool, Li Hua,” Lóng Wei said.

“You are not allowed to speak,” Li Hua pronounced with a stern tone. “If you went hunting, then shouldn’t you have told your wife once? You love to get hurt. Who told you to become the hero?” She scolded him.

“I did not become the hero,” Lóng Wei answered. “Forgive me. My plan changed in the morning and I decided to stay at Chang Shi’s place for a while,” he stated and walked up to her. He hugged her and told her to forgive him.

“I will not forgive Prince Lóng Wei this time,” Li Hua said.

Lóng Wei lifted his head from her shoulder and peered into her eyes. “But, why? What do I have to do for seeking your forgiveness?” Lóng Wei asked.

“Undress,” Li Hua said.

.....

“What?” Lóng Wei exclaimed and arched his eyebrow.

“Undress the upper robe. I would like to see something,” Li Hua said.

“I want to take a bath first,” Lóng Wei asserted. “I can undress later in front of you later,” he added.

“No. We are not sleeping together tonight. This is the punishment of Prince Lóng Wei for lying to his wife and fooling her,” she proclaimed.

“You cannot do that, Li Hua. I promise I will never do that,” Lóng Wei said with a pleading look in his eyes.

“The bathhouse is ready. His Highness can go and take a bath,” Li Hua said and gently pushed him away. “I will get angrier if His Highness stayed here. He should go and take a bath,” she asserted and turned her back to him.

Lóng Wei sighed and decided not to say anything to her. He left for the bathhouse. After changing into the bathing attire, he got into the hot pool of water. He glanced at his right arm on which he got the cut from the blade while fighting with the spy.

“Who told her about the incident with me?” Lóng Wei murmured and furrowed his brows together.

He heard the door open and tilted his head to look. Behind the door, he saw the silhouette of Li Hua, who had clean clothes in her hand and she soon walked in. Lóng Wei’s mood lightens up to see her.

He turned himself and rested his arms on the wooden floor above the water pool. “Li Hua, thank you for coming,” he said and she sat in front of her with her knees to one side. She touched his arm which was injured during the fight.

“Prince Lóng Wei could have come to me. I get more hurt when he hides such things from me. He knows that I do not get angry at him. That is why he lies to me as much as wants to,” she stated.

“I do not lie to you. Only sometimes. I do not want to make you worry,” Lóng Wei said. Li Hua grabbed his left hand which was out of the water and asked him if the wound was deep.

“Do not lie this time,” Li Hua said.

“It is deep,” Lóng Wei answered. “Who told you about all this?” Lóng Wei questioned.

“Zhai Liang has come to the palace to ask about you in the evening. I got worried to hear about it and then I went to General Hei. He told me how you fought with such a strong man all by yourself,” Li Hua said.

“He poisoned Yuze. As soon as I found out about it, I could not stop myself. He was stronger. You also know you get hurt while fighting. If you won’t get hurt, then how will you become strong? The pain is not much. Now, you have come here, so my remaining pain is gone,” Lóng Wei said.

“I will help you wash,” Li Hua said and asked him to sit straight. He acted on her command while resting his arms on the wooden platform above the pool.

After twenty minutes, when Lóng Wei bathed, Li Hua asked him to change into a clean outfit and come to her chamber. She left while Lóng Wei dressed up into the white robes for the night.

When he reached Li Hua’s bedchamber, he found a first-aid box on the circular table beside the bed. She had the bandage in her hand along with two porcelain bottles. She lifted her head and Lóng Wei walked up to her. He undress his upper robe and sat next to her.

Li Hua dressed the wound on his hand first and then asked her to show his right arm.

“Both the wounds are deep,” Li Hua said and beamed at him. Lóng Wei quickly kissed the tip of her nose and again asked her to forgive him. Li Hua asked him not to disturb him and focused on dressing the wound.

“The King has a scar on his hand,” Li Hua said after she wrapped the bandage around his arm and tied a knot on it. Lóng Wei was perplexed to hear her and asked her why she was suddenly talking about it.

“The King came to my house when I was very young. The scar on the King’s hand bothered me a lot after I saw it. I tried to recall it and finally, today, I remembered everything. He is the one who killed my family, Prince Lóng Wei,” Li Hua stated.
