1671 Long Yang, “Bring It To The Grave And Bury It Forever.”
Zhao Qian called out worriedly when he saw this, “Master?”
It took quite a while before Long Yang said to Lin Mo while clenching the letter in his hand, “Leave us first.”
“Yes, Your Majesty,” Lin Mo replied respectfully and left.
Zhao Qian looked at his master worriedly.
What exactly did Chu Qi write in the letter to make his master react in such a way?
He looked so dejected and troubled.
Long Yang stood up and went to the window, standing there for a long time, looking in a decadent state.
Zhao Qian was worried about him and secretly went to call Lu Liangwei over.
Lu Liangwei’s heart sank when she heard Zhao Qian reporting to her. She had a guess about what had happened.
Her heart felt like someone had tightened their fingers around it. She felt pained and helpless at the same time.
When she walked into the imperial study, Long Yang was still standing by the window.
Lu Liangwei went over to him after sending away the servants and hugged his waist from behind. Her heart ached for him as she said, “How long are you planning to be standing here? Are you going to skip your meal?”
Long Yang closed his eyes and held her hand. He gave a low sigh. “Weiwei, Ji’er found out about it. She knows everything…”
Lu Liangwei’s heart sank to the bottom of her stomach when she heard this. She held his hand tightly and said, “There’s no point feeling sorry about it now that the situation has escalated to this point. We’ll face this together.”
Long Yang stared quietly at her. After a while, he wrapped his arms around her.
“Weiwei, I plan to make a trip down to West Water Frontier. If Ji’er wants to hate me, I’ll let her. All I hope is that she won’t feel sad and bitter over this. It would be fine with me even if she decides to renounce me as her father.”
Lu Liangwei hugged him tightly around the waist when she heard this. She had always known that even though the incident had happened a long time ago and Ji’er was healthily grown up now, it was still his biggest source of pain that could not be touched. Once triggered, the pain would reduce him to a bloody mess.
He may act like it did not affect him, but he always felt he owed a lot to Ji’er.
Her heart ached for Ji’er as well.
Lu Liangwei had also hated and blamed the Emperor before for what happened.
However, when she thought hard about it, this had really happened because of her.
If she had not gone through a difficult labor and lost so much blood, none of these would have happened.
“Alright, let’s go and see her together.” Lu Liangwei gripped his hand tight. A thought crossed her mind and she asked, “By the way, did Lil Qi say anything about how Ji’er found out?”
Long Yang passed the letter to her.
Lu Liangwei took it from him and began reading.
When she found out it was Man Li’s younger sister who revealed this news from an unknown source to Ji’er on purpose to get revenge, Lu Liangwei’s eyes were filled with anger.
“She’s nothing but a troublemaker!”
Long Yang massaged the spot between his eyes and smiled bitterly as he said, “Weiwei, there is no such thing as a secret that can be kept forever, I thought that I would bring this secret to the grave and bury it forever. It never crossed my mind that Ji’er would still end up finding out about it.”
“Stop with this nonsense!” Lu Liangwei could not bear to hear him saying such things and she felt even more pain for him. “Don’t overthink this. Let’s just go to West Water Frontier together and beg for Ji’er’s forgiveness. We’ll use the rest of our lives making it up to her.” Despite these words, she knew that Ji’er would still harbor ill feelings in the end.
No one would be able to forgive a parent who would try to kill their child the moment it was born.
Lu Liangwei felt horrible inside, but she did not dare reveal it.
It was because Long Yang was already feeling quite terrible about it.
What should they do?
Her mind was a mess.
All she could do was perk up her spirits and say, “Lil Qi said in the letter that he suspects that woman has accomplices in the imperial capital. We should conduct an investigation and find out the mastermind behind this.”
The incident had been silenced for many years. How did a woman from Southern Xinjiang have gotten her hands on this news so easily? Even without Lil Qi’s warning in his letter, she felt that there was something unusual about this.
