Chapter 861: I’m Laughing at You for Getting Something Wrong
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Father has liked you since you were young. Father likes your mother, so chess, calligraphy, painting, and even riding and shooting martial arts were all personally taught by to you by father. Although I’m the master of the
Eastern Palace, I have never enjoyed such favoritism. I have always envied Third Brother, envied you for being able to obtain Imperial father’s favor. In fact, I’m also curious about why is you’re so favored? It wasn’t until I killed my father’s trusted aide that I learned from him that 1 was just a scapegoat.” Rong Jinghua laughed as he spoke. His faint voice seemed to come from a distance, and it was eerie.
Rong Lie looked at the scary man in front of him in fear and did not dare to say anything more. He looked at Rong Jinghua and continued.
Rong Jinghua did not care about Rong Lie’s reaction. He continued to smile and said, “You don’t know this, but Father really loves you. He’s worried that you’ll become a public target in the future, so he needs a son with a more valuable status than you to become the crown prince to help you resist these attacks. I’m the most powerful eldest son, but I can’t compare to father’s favoritism towards you. How can I tolerate such an eyesore like you living?”
When Rong Lie heard this, his body trembled even more. He said in a trembling voice, “I, I understand now. You want to kill me not because I’m a threat to your throne, but because you’re jealous!”
Rong Jinghua seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world. He stared at Rong lie and the sneer on his lips became even more obvious, “How can you threaten my throne? Compared to me and Seventh Brother, you are still far behind.’
Rong Lie felt humiliated, and his body trembled uncontrollably. “Shut up, you shut up! Rong Jinghua, you hypocrite. I’m warning you, if you kill me, you won’t get away with it. Do you think father will let you off so easily? You’re just a chess piece that’s being used. Once I die, father will only pa.s.s the throne to Seventh Brother!”
It was as if Rong Jinghua had just heard the funniest joke in the world. His body only trembled for a moment before he burst out laughing uncontrollably.
Rong Lie was infuriated by Rong Jinghua’s actions and he roared, “Rong Jinghua, what are you laughing at?
“Third Brother, I’m laughing at you for making a mistake. When did I say I wanted to kill you? It’s your own bad luck, after following me to escape, you were still caught by the wolf pack, and the result was that you were bitten to death by the evil wolves, dying from blood loss.” Rong Jinghua looked at Rong Lie with a smile and calmly arranged the cause of his death.
Rong Lie’s body trembled even more. “No, it’s impossible. You can’t hide the truth from the public. Father won’t believe you. You can’t fool everyone…” The more Rong Lie said, the less confident he was.
Everyone had seen the wolves’ malice toward him earlier. They had bitten him like crazy. It was Rong Jinghua, his brother, who had risked his life to save him. He had even lured the entire wolf pack away for the safety of the others.
After Rong Jinghua had done all this, he would be a good person who valued relationships and loyalty. In comparison, Rong Lie was more like a clown…
Rong Jinghua had indeed saved him, but they were being chased by a pack of wolves, so it was hard to tell if they were dead or alive..
