The wind blew up the fallen leaves in the courtyard. The white tiger had already curled up in the shack that was built for it to rest. In the starless and moonless night, there was only a faint light from the lantern.
Su Ming Feng's gaze was uncertain as he asked hesitantly, "What is the meaning of this?"
"My real identity is the Great Liang's Prince Rui. Not the son of the residence of the Marquis of Lin An, Xie Ding. "Xie Jing Xing lightly said," It is not a stopgap measure. "
"Impossible!" Su Ming Feng blurted out, "You and I have known each other for more than ten years and were together since childhood. How can I not know that you are the Great Liang's Prince Rui?"
"The Heir of the Xie family died at birth and the real Heir of the residence of the Marquis of Lin An is already dead." Xie Jing Xing said, "It is not me."
Su Ming Feng looked at Xie Jing Xing in a daze. His words were somewhat chaotic, as if he himself was unable to differentiate some things, "Your meaning is that from the beginning you are not the son of the Marquis of Lin An. Someone swapped the Crown Prince with you and you have been living in the Ding capital till now, but you are actually not a Ming Qi person. You are a Great Liang person and you are the Great Liang's Emperor Yong Le's younger brother. You are a Prince of the Great Liang. How is this possible? This is simply impossible …"
His words suddenly paused when he saw Xie Jing Xing's expression. That familiar, handsome face only had a look of indifference. Su Ming Feng understood Xie Jing Xing. When Xie Jing Xing was talking about serious matters, he did not like to repeat it and when he was impatient, he would often have this expression.
What he said was true.
Su Ming Feng could not say what kind of feeling he had in his heart at this moment, as if it was blocked by a ball of cotton. The joy of seeing an old friend for the first time had completely disappeared. What was left was only emptiness and some inexplicable anger.
He asked, "When did you know your identity?"
"From memory." Xie Jing Xing answered.
Su Ming Feng took two steps back.
"From memory?" He asked, "You knew that you are a Great Liang person long ago?"
Xie Jing Xing was noncommittal.
Shen Miao sighed in her heart. Why did Xie Jing Xing need to be so honest? In fact, the more he said, the more Su Ming Feng felt that he was being cheated. Sometimes, it was easier for oneself and others to accept some lies.
But Shen Miao asked herself honestly, if it was her, she would also be as honest as Xie Jing Xing.
There was no need to lie to people who were very close to him.
Sure enough, it was just as Shen Miao expected, after Su Ming Feng heard Xie Jing Xing's answer, his expression became extremely complicated. After the surprise and suspicion, it was like the anger of being betrayed gradually surged up. He sneered and asked back, "Oh, then why did you come back now? Could it be that you see that Ming Qi is not as good as your Great Liang and still want to have an ambitious foot in here? "
His words were so harsh that even Shen Miao could not help but cast a sidelong glance. But one's heart was clear that when an outsider looked at a chess game, one would be able to see it clearly. Su Ming Feng suddenly knew so many secrets and would definitely not be able to accept it. Towards the people who were close to one's side, people would always hurt them easily.
"So what if I am?" But Xie Jing Xing was not one to be humble. Not only did he not stroke Su Ming Feng's hair, he even calmly admitted it.
Shen Miao wanted to speak but after thinking about it, she gave up. A true gentleman did not speak when watching a chess game. Today she would just treat it as watching a show.
Su Ming Feng was indeed angrier as he roared at Xie Jing Xing, "Today I finally know what is called a traitor and what is called a white-eyed wolf that cannot be tamed! Originally I thought that you were not close to the Marquis of Lin An since young because of Princess Yu Qing. But now it seems that it was you who wanted to draw a clear line with them! You are not the son of the Marquis of Lin An but you enjoy everything in the residence of the Marquis of Lin An with a clear conscience. Even the two Shu sons of the Xie residence are not as good as you. You keep saying that Princess Rong Xin is your relative but you deceived her and made her feel pain every day because of the news of your death. You treat me as a brother but concealed your identity for so many years. One fear that there is a reason for you to be on good terms with me. "
