Lóng Wei kept the stoic expression on his face.

Kang Xi was stunned to hear that decision. Lóng Wei was able to remove Li Zixuan from the ministerial position and it scared him. He decided not to speak anymore if he didn’t want to lose his status as the prime minister.

The other ministers were also turned quieter because they were scared if Lóng Wei held the evidence against them as well.

“That is a great decision, Your Majesty,” Lóng Wei said and bowed to him.

“Your Majesty, this year’s civil services exam was topped by a man in his early twenties. He will be the best choice for this position. His name is Tang Wuxin,” Xiaoming propounded the idea to the King.

“Are there any other ministers who tried to fool the King and are still doing it?” Qiu Zedong questioned as he gazed at Lóng Wei while ignoring Xiaoming.

“If I tell the names, then His Majesty may get shocked that there is not a single minister who didn’t misuse their power. They all want me to step down as the Governor, who didn’t benefit himself with that position,” Lóng Wei asserted.

Tianjie squinted his eyes in suspicion. He wondered what happened to Lóng Wei that he was talking so coldly with the King? Those expressions in his eyes were new to him.

“I do not need money suckers in my kingdom. I want only those who grow this kingdom. Prince Lóng Wei is right. The previous king and his officials weren’t working for the Kingdom. The ministers here know well how they all were executed,” Qiu Zedong proclaimed and glanced at Xiaoming.

“Summon Tang Wuxin to the palace. I would like to see him before appointing him as the minister in the court. Also, I need the report mentioning his work,” Qiu Zedong commanded the Crown Prince.

“I will do, Your Majesty,” Xiaoming said.

“The session is ended here. The other matters will be discussed tomorrow,” Qiu Zedong stated and asked them to empty the court. “Prince Lóng Wei stay behind. I want to talk to you,” he ordered.

Except Lóng Wei, everyone left the imperial court hall. The doorkeepers closed the doors.

“Come here,” Qiu Zedong said. Lóng Wei obeyed him and went to his father. Qiu Zedong asked Gao Bing to leave. Now, only the King and Lóng Wei were present in the court.

“Sit on the chair next to me,” Qiu Zedong told Lóng Wei and he settled on the chair.

“What do you see?” Qiu Zedong asked.

Lóng Wei described him how he could see the ministers lining up to hear the orders from the King.

“Those ministers know well how to plot against their King,” Qiu Zedong stated. Lóng Wei tilted his head and looked at him. “Do you think I do not know what is going on? Sometimes, it is necessary to let it go,” he said and glanced at Lóng Wei.

“When I was not interested in doing anything in my life, Father constantly asked Yuze to guide me. He wanted me to use the prophecy in a right way for the Kingdom. When I started to do it, Father is stopping me,” Lóng Wei remarked.

“I am not stopping you from anything. However, I want you to be cautious,” Qiu Zedong stated. “Li Hua, Xu Zifan, Feng Lao are close to you. They may get harmed in all this.”

The King wanted to intimidate Lóng Wei. He knew Lóng Wei’s weakness were those three. Qiu Zedong was still unable to get his hands on Feng Lao and find out where Lóng Wei went for four days.

“Father, I will kill the person who tries to do it,” Lóng Wei affirmed.

“Today’s incident has turned ministers against you. What will you do? How will you stop it? It is not easy to find the culprit if there is an entire army of it,” Qiu Zedong stated. “After you killed your mother, I protected you despite everyone’s disapproval on my judgment that time. You should not try to instigate the ministers,” he asserted.

“Father should protect me then from those ministers as he always did,” Lóng Wei stated.

“Monk Yuze’s death has affected you. Why don’t you take a break from the work?” Qiu Zedong suggested to Lóng Wei.

Lóng Wei chuckled to hear him. “And who will become the Governor then?” He queried.

“Xiaoming will hold it temporarily,” Qiu Zedong answered.

“I do not need break, Father. I have yet to accomplish the target that Father gave me,” Lóng Wei said with glistening eyes.

Qiu Zedong knitted his brows and gazed at the prince with inquisitiveness.

“I need to find Qizhen. He killed the great general of our kingdom. I think he is gathering forces and may soon rebel against the King. I have to prevent those things to happen in the future,” Lóng Wei stated.

That matter had almost skipped from Qiu Zedong’s head.

“Father, forgive me to lie to you,” Lóng Wei said and it confused Qiu Zedong.

“I never visited Dongqing with Li Hua. I was working on the mission that Father has given me. I wanted to keep it a secret because I found out something strange. Gao Bing is a loyal to Qizhen,” Lóng Wei asserted.

Qiu Zedong was shocked to find all those things. However, the last statement from Lóng Wei bewildered him more.

“Father, Gao Bing met me the day Yuze died and told me something strange. He asked me to stand for Qizhen and betray my Father. I wonder why he said that. When I refused, he said that Father may harm Feng Lao, Xu Zifan and Li Hua. Is it true?” Lóng Wei questioned and patiently waited for Qiu Zedong’s answer.

“Gao Bing said that?” Qiu Zedong frowned.

“Yes, Father. Why would an Eunuch want me to rebel against my own father? I could not tell the truth to Father for this reason. I thought to tell him later, but then the sudden demise of Yuze made me go in a mourning state for a few days,” Lóng Wei explained to the King.

“Forgive me, Father, for lying to you. If you want, you can punish me for lying to you. However, I request Father to give the order to execute Gao Bing,” Lóng Wei pronounced.
