My mother wanted me to kill her

Lóng Wei looked at Qiu Zedong, who was on his knees at the center of the palace ground with shackles around his hands and feet. The biggest truth that was hidden from everyone, Qiu Zedong finally revealed it. Xiaoming lowered his eyes after he glanced at Lóng Wei. None of the princes could open their mouths after knowing the truth about Lóng Wei from their father. 

None of Qiu Zedong's women were present on the palace ground as they were locked in their respective manors. 

"Lóng Wei, I gave you the life which was supposed to end years ago. You should not forget the favors that I did for you," Qiu Zedong asserted. 

"You do not deserve to say that to me anymore," Lóng Wei said with scrunched brows. "When she asked you to let us leave, you should have. I was never interested in the throne. You knew this well." Tears bubbled in Lóng Wei's eyes. He did not want to fall weak at this moment. But the truth was heart-wrenching.
