Sheng Li and Ying Lili were sitting on a seat as they were informed that Sun Lǎohǔ had come to the Residence. In the hall, Governor Tzu and General Xiao were also present. General Wang brought Sun Lǎohǔ there.
As Sun Lǎohǔ entered there, his eyes met the gaze of the Crown Prince. Immediately, he lowered them and came on his knees. Sheng Li chuckled seeing that. "You call yourself a tiger but your acts seem otherwise to me," Sheng Li remarked.
"Your highness, forgive me," Sun Lǎohǔ said.
"Asking for forgiveness after declaring the Ruler of this Province does not suit you, Lǎohǔ," Sheng Li declared. "How is your back doing?" Sheng Li queried him.
Sun Lǎohǔ lifted his head and then immediately lowered it down. "You are thinking right. I was the one who hit you that night. Do you know how badly I wanted to kill you at that moment?" Sheng Li muttered and stood up from the throne. He went towards Sun Lǎohǔ and between his fingers, grasped his hair.
