Chapter 651 No longer a family matter

Lóng Wei got out of the carriage and the guards at the entrance of the Chen Residence quickly got down the stairs. They bowed to him while one of them asked the reason for his visit.

"I am here to see Chen Xiao," Lóng Wei said. The guard looked at him and went inside to inform him about the Sixth Prince's first-time visit to them.

In the second carriage, Miaoran was present. Feng Lao opened its door and asked her to step out. She placed her foot on the footplate but because the distance between the ground and the footplate was huge, she was unable to step down.

"Here." Feng Lao lifted his forearm and gestured to her to keep her hand on it. She thanked him and finally stepped down. He found the scary expression on her face. 𝒷𝓮𝒹𝓃ℴ𝓿𝓮𝓁.𝓬𝓸𝓂

"Everything will be fine," Feng Lao said to make her feel a bit better.

Chen Zhicun, the head of the Chen Family, came running out of the residence followed by his eldest son, Chen Yixuan.

They both bowed to Lóng Wei and welcomed him to the Chen Residence. Their eyes fell on Miaoran and for a second, their eyes grew bigger.

"Let's go in," Lóng Wei said as he briefly glanced at Miaoran and Feng Lao.

Lóng Wei asked Miaoran to take the seat, who did. Feng Lao also sat after her while Chen Zhicun stepped up to sit in his place.

"Did I ask you to move?" Lóng Wei's voice intimidated him and he stopped midway.

"Forgive me, Your Highness," Chen Zhicun apologized and asked Lóng Wei if he would like to drink tea. Lóng Wei refused and asked him to summon the entire family.

"We were looking for Sister Miaoran since yesterday night. We didn't know she would be with–" Chen Yixuan could not speak further as Lóng Wei glared at him.

"I didn't give you permission to speak," Lóng Wei coldly said.

Feng Lao smiled to see their tongues got tied in front of Lóng Wei.

Chen Yiyi, the wife of Chen Zhicun, and her younger son, Chen Ling also came to the guest room.

"Your Highness, Chen Xiao isn't at home. He has gone out for work," Chen Zhicun lied after the servant whispered something in his ear.

"Bring Chen Xiao here," Lóng Wei stated.

"Miaoran, where did you go away? We were so worried for you. Chen Xiao has gone out to search for Miaoran since last night," Chen Yiyi said and quickly went toward Miaoran.

"What's wrong with your face? Did you fall somewhere? I will call the physician for you," Chen Yiyi showed her fake concern toward her.

Lóng Wei pressed the fingers on the temple of his forehead.

"Do I look like a fool to you?" Lóng Wei beamed at her. "Don't even touch her. I will break your hands," he said while scrunching his brows. "Get up and stand where you were," he ordered her.

Chen Yiyi felt humiliated and looked at her husband. "I am only concerned for my daughter-in-law," she said and again looked at Lóng Wei.

"There is no need to do that. It has been a while since I last punished someone. So, stand quietly at your place," Lóng Wei pronounced.

Chen Zhicun asked her wife to come to him and she complied with her husband.

"I know everything that happened with this young lady," Lóng Wei said, referring to Feng Lao. "She has been tortured here and her husband is doing adultery. Bring Chen Xiao to the residence in the next thirty minutes along with his mistress. Chen Zhicun, if you failed to do so, I will send your entire family to prison," Lóng Wei stated.

"Pardon me, Your Highness. But the Sixth Prince cannot order something on which he holds no authority," Chen Yiyi stated.

"This is the matter of the Chen Family and without any evidence and official, he cannot tell us anything he pleases." Chen Yiyi didn't want the reputation of her family to go down in the pit.

"Your wife loves to speak in front of me," Lóng Wei asserted while looking at Chen Zhicun, who apologized to him and asked her wife to stay quiet.

Miaoran was a bit terrified thinking Lóng Wei might come into danger.

"That's why you should keep yourself updated. I don't need anyone's order because I got direct authority from the King," Lóng Wei said and took out the gold plaque, which Xiaoming had given him.

"Is this enough?" Lóng Wei arched his eyebrow.

"It is no longer a family matter. A woman is abused by her husband and her in-laws. When she ran away, three men were sent to chase her. Do you think you can hide your crimes after they come to my notice? No matter how many ministers you know, I am above them all. Royalty is above all," Lóng Wei affirmed, thus giving an answer to Chen Yiyi's second question.

"You have twenty minutes left. If Chen Xiao doesn't show himself here, you all will be imprisoned," Lóng Wei stated.

Chen Yixuan and Chen Ling quickly rushed out of the residence.

"I want to hear the truth only, Chen Zhicun," Lóng Wei finally rose to his feet and walked up to him. He took out the dagger from his waistband which made Zhicun gulp in fear.

"Are you aware of your son's terrible and immoral acts?" Lóng Wei questioned him and slowly pulled out the dagger from the scabbard.

"Yes," Chen Zhicun replied.

"Then, why did you stay quiet?" Lóng Wei asked. "Did your wife," he looked at Chen Yiyi, "raise her hand at Miaoran? Did you raise your filthy hand at her?"

"Forgive me, Your Highness," Chen Zhicun said when Lóng Wei placed the pointed blade of the dagger under his chin.

"Did I ask you to apologize? Answer what I am asking you," Lóng Wei sternly said.

"It h-happens sometimes, Your Highness," Zhicun was unable to speak because of fear.

"I am not satisfied with your answer," Lóng Wei said and asked him how would he like to get punished. "Do you want an instant death or a torturous death?" He asked with a menacing look.
