Chapter 649 You've created a trouble
"Look at that tree. Can you see the flower buds on its branches?" Lóng Wei asked Li Hua. They both were on the same swing in the manor's garden.
"I can see," Li Hua said.
"Soon, we will see the pear blossom season," Lóng Wei said and rested his head on her shoulder. "With that, we will celebrate your birthday too," he stated with a smile.
He grasped her hand and played with her fingers.
"Prince Lóng Wei isn't going to work since the day he has come to Qinping. Will he keep doing this?" Li Hua asked him.
"I have nothing to do," Lóng Wei said.
"Don't lie," Li Hua muttered and he lifted his head to look at her.
"When did I lie?" Lóng Wei asked her.
"I heard Prince Mingquan is busy with lots of work. The same goes for Prince Tianjie and Prince Zhang Xi. However, Prince Lóng Wei didn't bother to help anyone of them," Li Hua stated.
"Hmm. I am not interested in taking any headache," Lóng Wei said and looked at her lips. He leaned in toward her and kissed her upper lip. "Don't you like it seeing your husband be with you most of the time?" He placed his calloused finger under her chin. "Hmm?"
"I do, but Prince Lóng Wei should work too. I suppose if he goes to work, then all the princes' workload will lessen. The officials will also work efficiently if Prince Lóng Wei keeps an eye," Li Hua stated.
"I am an advisor. When they will need me, I will help them. If they won't, I will keep resting," Lóng Wei asserted. "The wives get happy when their husbands give them maximum attention, but you are getting angry at me. I didn't expect it," he said.
"I am not angry at Prince Lóng Wei. I don't want him to become lazy. I like to be with him," Li Hua said and passed a smile to him.
"Pardon me for intriguing in." They both heard the maidservant's voice and tilted their heads. "Shui Feng Lao is here to see the Sixth Prince," she informed them.
Lóng Wei got confused to hear that and asked the maidservant if she told Feng Lao to wait in the guest room.
"Yes, Your Highness," the maidservant replied.
"You may leave," Lóng Wei said. They both rose to their feet and went to see Feng Lao.
Feng Lao stood up from the broad chair to see them and bowed his head.
"What happened?" Lóng Wei asked and gestured to Li Hua to take the seat. However, she remained standing beside him.
"Your Highness, I need your help," Feng Lao said.
Lóng Wei gazed at Li Hua. "You wanted me to work and already a work has come to me," he said.
"Did I disturb you two?" Feng Lao asked in an informal tone.
"Yes."
"Not at all."
Lóng Wei and Li Hua spoke at the same time. Feng Lao smiled to hear their response.
"We were enjoying our private moment. She was going to kiss me when the maidservant interrupted us," Lóng Wei said and looked at Feng Lao.
Li Hua widened her eyes and hit Lóng Wei's arm. "When did I do that? Feng Lao, the Prince is lying," she mumbled and told Lóng Wei that she was going to see Jin Yu.
"Don't be angry at me. I was only teasing you," Lóng Wei said and asked Feng Lao to turn away.
Feng Lao turned away immediately when Lóng Wei quickly kissed Li Hua. She blushed and walked out of the guest room.
"What help do you need?" Lóng Wei asked him. "Li Hua is gone," he said.
Feng Lao again turned to face him. "Your Highness, I want to go inside the Chen Family. However, it is difficult for me," he stated and saw Lóng Wei had taken the seat. He also sat on the chair and briefed the incident from the last night.
"You kept a married woman in your house?" Lóng Wei arched his eyebrows.
"I know I should not do this, but I have no other way," Feng Lao stated.
"Do you wish to die early?" Lóng Wei questioned him.
Feng Lao was dumbfounded by that question and he shook his head.
"Then, tell that woman to go to her family," Lóng Wei asserted.
"But Your Highness, her husband may again beat her. Miaoran is already weak," he said with a worried expression.
"Feng Lao, you know if her husband finds out she is with you, what will happen," Lóng Wei asked him to be pragmatic.
"I only helped a person from–"
"No. You've created a trouble, not for her, but for yourself. You should have sent her to her house in the morning. The rest of the action you could have taken later. I don't want rumors about you to circulate," Lóng Wei affirmed.
Feng Lao furrowed his brows together. "What should I do then? I don't want a lady to suffer from the abuse, Your Highness," he stated.
"I know this, but people do not know this. They will think you two have something together. Let's first send Miaoran to her house," Lóng Wei advised him.
"She isn't ready to go there. She wishes to go to the other city," Feng Lao said.
"I will meet her. Let's go to your house," Lóng Wei said and stood up. Feng Lao went behind him. At the imperial gates, Lóng Wei asked a soldier to bring the horse for him.
Soon, they left to see Miaoran on the horses. Jingfei was surprised and happy to see Lóng Wei. She welcomed him and asked him if he was doing well.
"I couldn't meet Brother Lóng Wei that day. He wasn't in the palace," She said.
"How have you been?" Lóng Wei asked her.
"I am good," Jingfei said and told Lóng Wei that Xu Zifan wasn't at home.
"I am here to meet Chen Miaoran," Lóng Wei told Jingfei. "Bring her to the guest room. I have something to ask her and tell her," he stated.
