Gifted Bride of the Sinned Prince

544 Useful to me [Bonus chapter]

Lóng Wei pulled the sword out of the scabbard. The spy thought to run before Lóng Wei would take his life.

Though, that would not be easy. The spy was trained in martial arts after he turned three years old. Also, the spy had killed more people than Lóng Wei couldn’t even imagine.

The spy’s sharp gaze looked around to find the escape point. He saw Lóng Wei approaching him. It surprised him that Lóng Wei could stand straight on that slanted roof. Yuze must have taught him. The only thing that came to the spy’s mind.

He turned and ran opposite to Lóng Wei before taking a jump to get on the other side of the roof. The one thing that the spy had to be careful about was not harming Lóng Wei and also not getting harmed.

Lóng Wei chased him when the spy jumped on the ground and landed safely there.

The spy stood up and found Lóng Wei watching him from the top of the roof. He decided to run away, but then Feng Lao stopped him.

The spy attacked Feng Lao, who defended himself by extending his arm which was holding the sword. He pushed away the spy and quickly unsheathed the sword.

Lóng Wei had also come down and only watched them fighting. Feng Lao was indeed a fierce fighter. He was called the best swordsman in the Kingdom for a reason. Lóng Wei realized that after seeing Feng Lao’s fight with the spy.

A sharp sound reverberated when the two blades struck each other. The sound was painful for the ears. The spy took the chance and kicked Feng Lao’s abdomen.

.....

Feng Lao stepped away while gasping for air and holding his abdomen.

Lóng Wei came to his rescue. The spy withdrew his sword from him.

“Who sent you?” Lóng Wei asked.

The spy didn’t answer and narrowly gazed at Feng Lao’s left. Lóng Wei rubbed the top of his left eyebrow and then attacked the spy.

The Sixth Prince had changed his plan and decided not to kill but keep the spy as a hostage.

Lóng Wei swiftly pulled out the dagger and threw it in the spy’s direction. It passed through the side of his arm which was holding the sword.

This was the chance for Lóng Wei to overpower the spy. He kicked at his wrist and the sword from the spy’s hand fell to the ground. Lóng Wei pointed the edge of the blade under the spy’s chin, and they glared into each other’s eyes.

“You shouldn’t have chased me,” Lóng Wei said. He called Feng Lao to come forward and asked him to take out the small bamboo vessel from inside the sash.

Feng Lao did what he was told.

“Open it and give me the needle,” Lóng Wei said.

Feng Lao furrowed his brows together before taking the needle out of the cylindrical bamboo vessel.

Lóng Wei took it from him and went close to the spy. He didn’t give the spy any chance to move and used the acupuncture needle to make the spy unconscious.

Feng Lao was astonished to see that and wondered if Li Hua taught Lóng Wei.

The spy’s eyes closed and he fell to the ground. “Bring the ropes. We need to tie him up,” Lóng Wei commanded Feng Lao, who rushed towards the storeroom to bring the ropes.

Lóng Wei got on his knees and removed the fabric from the spy’s face. It was the first time Lóng Wei had seen him. He checked his pockets and found two tiny porcelain bottles. He removed the cork and smelled it.

“Seems poison,” Lóng Wei murmured.

None of the people in the residence had found out that a fight broke out in the middle of the night. The reason was that they mixed sleeping pills in their food.

Xu Zifan came there and asked Lóng Wei if he was alright.

“I am fine,” Lóng Wei said and put the porcelain bottles in his inner pockets.

“Jingfei didn’t wake up, right?” Lóng Wei asked, who shook his head.

“Great!” Lóng Wei said when Feng Lao reached there.

They both tied the hands and legs of the spy first. Lóng Wei then tied a cloth across the spy’s mouth.

“Did Li Hua teach acupuncture to Prince Lóng Wei?” Feng Lao asked.

Lóng Wei raised his head and beamed at him.

“Forgive me for taking out the name,” Feng Lao said and lowered his gaze.

“She did. She told me it can be useful to me someday,” Lóng Wei asserted and stood up.

“Why did His Highness not kill him?” Xu Zifan asked.

“I don’t want to die tomorrow,” Lóng Wei replied. “Let’s keep him as a hostage. I was so confused about how I will bring down the King. Now, I have found out the way,” he said with a smirk.

Lóng Wei looked at Feng Lao and Xu Zifan. “We need to shift him away from here,” Lóng Wei said.

“Someone may see us,” Xu Zifan said.

Lóng Wei did some calculations in his mind and said, “After twenty minutes the duties of the soldiers will change. We will get ten minutes to escape with this spy. The forest is ten minutes away from here, so we need to run at that time without coming to anyone’s notice.”

“But the Prince needs to leave in the horse. Since the other soldiers might have seen him coming here. He needs to go elsewhere,” Feng Lao opined.

“I will do it, Your Highness,” Huang Xi said, who had come after the Prince earlier.

“I can do it, Your Highness. Where do I have to take him?” Huang Xi asked.

“Did you chase away the other spies? How many were behind me?” Lóng Wei asked.

“Father chased them away. Prince Lóng Wei doesn’t need to worry. There were five. I lost the way for the fifth one and realized the fifth spy could have gone behind Prince Lóng Wei,” Huang Xi affirmed.

Lóng Wei nodded his head and told them they should begin the work.
