Heya! Sorry for updating late. I was quite busy this past few weeks so I couldn't really focus on writing :(
Ch.53: Truth or Deception; Difficult to Discern 3
Xie Lian shouted, "Qi Rong, you shut your mouth!"
"Too late for that, your highness." Pei Ming said even if said prince wasn't present at the moment. "The cat's out of the bag."
Lang Qianqiu turned his head angrily, "Why does he have to shut up? Because what he said is the truth?? In that Gilded Banquet, you and An Le both struck; one killed my entire family, and the other finished the blow to my father. You're all lying to me?!"
"To be fair, your father wanted to kill his people so he's excused." Qing Xuan said.
Xie Lian responded hurriedly, "Don't listen to–" Qi Rong cut in, "OF COURSE IT'S ALL A LIE! You're so stupid, if not you, then who else do we deceive? If not for some rando spoiling our plans, Xianle would've already taken your fucking life at the age of twelve, instead of giving you the luxury to grow up and ascend!"
Many winced.
"Twelve? That young? How can anyone be so cruel to want to kill a kid?" Pei Su said with a frown.
'I wonder who.' He Xuan thought while casting a glance at Wu Du who remained unaware.
"Twelve?" Lang Qianqiu repeated. The biggest thing that happened when he was twelve was that kidnapping, saved by Xie Lian. He demanded, "That year, the muggers who intruded the palace to kidnap me was sent by the people of Xianle?"
"Congratulations, you finally grew a fucking brain." Qi Rong sneered.
"Look who's talking." Feng Xin murmured.
"Duh!" Qi Rong clicked his tongue, "Did you think any ordinary assassins can just kidnap the Crown Prince from hundreds of royal guards? Please. I was the one who helped An Le on that."
"I mean, that's true." Yushi Huang said. "Without any help from the inside, no one could come close to you."
"...I know." Qian Qiu mumbled, feeling stupid for trusting someone like An Le.
Lang Qianqiu nodded, "Helped? Good. I understand. So my friends are all fake. The people of Xianle never cared for our amity. Your Prince An Le never possessed good intentions, and instead came for our lives."
