"What about Crown Prince Xiaoming?" Yuze questioned him.
"That's tough to say. He seems confused to me. He has suddenly turned nicer to me. He even admitted the crime that he had committed. He apologized to me, but I still do not trust him fully," Lóng Wei said, and recalled the words that Xiaoming told him when he was eight years old.
"'You must stay out of the palace matters, if you want to live' — these were the words of the Crown Prince when I was young," Lóng Wei said and glanced at Yuze. "I know he loves his throne more than anything," he affirmed.
"Because if the Crown Prince fails to keep the throne to himself, then his life will only be a laughing stock to the people," Yuze stated. He wanted Lóng Wei to turn his relationship with Xiaoming into a healthier one.
