And later, it was also in this place where Mage Clark froic talent

At that tiain… H blow to that man After all, as an Earl, as a chief of a clan and a household, the responsibility shouldering at that man's body was far too heavy to allow his son to be a useless trash

Then down the road when he first returned to the capital from the old family territory, this was also the place where his father attempted to repair their relationshi+p

However, it was also here in this study room where father and son finally fell apart!

He still remembers it clearly On that summer day before the coup, it was in this study roo assassins to kill himself…

Recalling back to that moment, how cold and hurt his heart was!

The sky may be warm as a summer breeze, but the heart's as hollow as an abyss… H

(It's an old chinese saying used for those really hurt)

At this time Du Wei heart was filled withit himself, his mind had wondered off into the past And next to him, those that came with him were likely able to read his ht

After a good while of this so around at the people behind him, his voice deep and poised

“Everyone… Thank you!” This “Thank you” froenuinely from the heart

Sracious word, it was that fatty Taklanshan whoh Duke, everyone's here has already waited half a day for you! Originally anted to pull you away for a drink, but since we know you are tired fro how late is it, we can only leave it to too back and warm up, otherwise, I will really become a popsicle at this rate”

Hearing those words, the crowd broke out into a laughing fit Then Du Wei uests, but since they all knew it's not the time to disturb him, they all took their leave

After sending the croay, Du Wei decides to call for his personal guards to send the new servants away, allowing everyone to get some rest As for himself, he went towards the memorable study room on his own

The interior of the study reed, even the desk was that of his father's… He honestly doesn't knohere those fellas ed to find this old relic

Co around to the desk, he seat himself in the same position as his father did Then subconsciously, he casually turns around and reached for the bookshelf Sure enough, he found a bottle of wine hidden behind a bunch of books

Watching the bottle in his hand, Du Wei grinned: ”What a good Biliaibuer To keep even this thing here, he sure kno to pry into a person's mind!”

Rubbing the bottle several times, he then uncorked the lid to take a sip

Hmm, In the past… Father must have also drunk like this alone in the study room

He was the head of the fa the responsibility of the entire clan, but I as his son only disappointed him Towards the heavy burden, father can only sneak a few sips here and there to relieve some pressure

Hmm, mother had always been worried about father’s body, not allowing him to drink more, thus the reason why father would hide a bottle behind the bookshelf

Thinking of this, Du Wei's heart first turned sour, then arm At this point he didn't even knohat his emotions were anymore

While he's busy recalling the past, Du Wei had cootten about QQ that was still placed inside his cage

Ever since he's been ienerally stay inside a specially crafted large cage while in front of the public

And since everyone's gone and out of sight, QQ had no reason to keep hie had never been locked, merely for looks

It can't be helped Ever since Du Wei found out QQ's true identity, the founder of the Temple and first Pope in history, he honestly didn't have the face to lock a historic figure like that inside an anie

“The expression on your face is so strange at the moment! You've been in the Northwest for over two years, yet I never once saw you hed

Du Wei shook his head: “You won't understand these things”

Then he rubbed his face and savesurprise”

QQ nonchalantly said: “Surprise is a surprise, but I fear there are conditional strings attached to his goodwill”

Du Wei very casually chugged another sip of wine, his : “That is of course! As a monarch, hehis y can only be nothing more than a carrot and a stick!”

Rubbing his nose, he wryly snitaries in the capital to orchestrate this reception, that's the first carrot by giving e face Then he sends me back to this manor to play the emotional card! So many carrots to sweeten the deal… I can already speculate the stick that's about to fall won't be a light one”
