Chapter 652 She is not an object [Bonus chapter]
"Why is His Highness doing this? Why would we raise our hands on our daughter-in-law? I think Prince Lóng Wei is misunderstood." Chen Zhicun stopped speaking as the pointed edge of the blade cut his skin.
"I told you I would not entertain lies," Lóng Wei stated.
Chen Yiyi caught Lóng Wei's leg as she got on her knees. "Please don't do anything to my husband," she requested him.
"Tell your wife to get away. It makes me mad when people prevent their loved ones from their wrongdoings," Lóng Wei told Zhicun.
"Yiyi, get away," Zhicun told his wife, who complied with her husband's command.
Feng Lao smiled to see that and looked at Miaoran, who was astonished to see how Lóng Wei made everyone stand on their toes.
Lóng Wei withdrew the dagger and took it in his left hand. "What if I slap you the same way you slapped this lady?" He questioned him and gazed briefly at Miaoran.
"Would you like to slap him?" Lóng Wei asked.
Miaoran shook her head. "He is an elder," she said. Zhicun heaved a sigh and told his daughter-in-law to tell Lóng Wei he never slapped her.
Lóng Wei turned his head to look at him and chuckled. "Asking her to lie in front of me. You have gotten guts to do that," Lóng Wei said and fisted his palm. He pinched Zhicun and he fell to the floor.
Miaoran covered her mouth with her hands because this wasn't expected of her.
"My Lord!" Yiyi started crying and shouted for the guards. She told Lóng Wei he wasn't doing right by abusing them.
"I have not started that yet," Lóng Wei said and glared at the guards. They didn't dare to step up and stop Lóng Wei while Yiyi kept telling them to save them.
Zhicun somehow got up and went on his knees. "Your Highness, forgive me. I was wrong. I will never do that," he said with tears forming in his eyes. He was never slapped in his life. Lóng Wei's name was enough to terrify him and he asked his wife not to speak.
"Why, My Lord? We should complain to the Minister of Justice about it," Yiyi was ready to take the matter to the ministers.
Miaoran was worried to hear that.
"Ahh, this old lady!" Lóng Wei muttered and pinched the skin between his brows. He looked at the guard and gestured to him to come forward.
The guard stepped up. "Call the Minister of Justice here. Don't be late," Lóng Wei ordered him.
Zhicun scolded his wife and begged Lóng Wei not to do so.
"How can I not hear the request of the old lady? She is my elder after all," Lóng Wei said with an evil smirk and looked at the guard. "Why are you standing here? Leave!"
The guard quickly ran out of the house. Lóng Wei looked at his knuckles and then at Zhicun, "When parents don't teach their children, the lesson is taught the other way. You should not have let this matter fall into my ears, Chen Zhicun. I go crazy seeing the injustice with women."
Chen Zhicun gulped to see the menacing look on Lóng Wei's face.
"Chen Xiao is here!" Chen Yixuan said while catching his breath. Miaoran stood up to see her husband at the door, who glared at her.
"Did you create this mess?" Chen Xiao asked Miaoran as he looked in her direction. He shouted at her when his elder brother, Chen Yixuan told him to stay quiet.
Chen Xiao didn't pay heed to his elder brother and bellowed at Miaoran, "Where were you since the last night?"
Feng Lao rose to his feet and stood in front of Miaoran.
Lóng Wei snickered to see Chen Xiao's behavior toward Miaoran. Zhicun ran to his second son and asked him to calm down. He whispered, "Prince Lóng Wei is here. So, stay quiet."
"I don't care!" Chen Xiao said and looked at Lóng Wei. "Doesn't the Prince know laws? He has no right to intervene in my family matter. I can do anything I want with my wife. I own her not the Prince!" He proclaimed.
Lóng Wei started laughing and it bewildered all of them present in the guest room. Zhicun feared that Lóng Wei would kill all of them.
"She is not an object, Bastard!" Lóng Wei said and walked up to him. He grabbed Chen Xiao's robe, and continued, "I know laws better than you. I have the right to intervene in matters when a human is exploited."
"That's why you worked as a puppet for the former King and let him exploit your own mother. You should not show highly of yourself in front of us. You killed your mother and such humans have no place to live among us," Chen Xiao didn't refrain from giving out a remark which infuriated Lóng Wei.
Feng Lao told Chen Xiao to stop his nonsensical talks.
"You know a lot of things about me. I feel privileged," Lóng Wei said.
"Who doesn't know how the Sixth Prince take the life of his own mother?" Chen Xiao muttered when Lóng Wei threw a hard punch at him. He kicked Chen Xiao hard on the abdomen before he could balance himself.
Lóng Wei threw him out of the room and then pushed him down the stairs. Everyone rushed out to stop Lóng Wei, but he didn't listen to any of them.
"Brother Lóng Wei!" Mingquan arrived there and held Lóng Wei.
"Leave me!" Lóng Wei told Mingquan, who kept holding him back.
Chen Xiao had lost consciousness because of the beating. He pushed Mingquan away when Feng Lao stood in front of him. He held Lóng Wei's arms and asked him to calm down.
Mingquan again held Lóng Wei's arm and told him to calm down.
He jerked Mingquan's hand off his arm and glared at him. "Don't stop me. I want to wipe out his existence," he muttered.
"I will handle the matter. You aren't in your right mind. Brother Lóng Wei cannot beat him to death. He is already unconscious," Mingquan said with a stern tone.
