Candles were already lit in the hall, and Zhou Shuren gazed at the candle that had burned a quarter down while Rongchuan came out from inside.
Rongchuan held a box in his arms, and everyone's eyes turned to him, but no one paid attention to Rongchuan's reddened eyes.
Zhou Shuren noticed that both Prince Qi and Prince Chu's breathing was somewhat erratic, indicating their increasing unrest.
Immersed in sorrow, Rongchuan sat back motionless on the chair, unconsciously stroking the box. It contained the wealth his father and mother had accumulated for him over the years, left to him by his father.
His father's guard had long been given to him, and today, in front of his elder brother, his father mentioned it again as a form of protection for him.
Rongchuan felt sad at heart, realizing he was luckier than his brothers. Although he had suffered when he was young, he returned to receive all of his father's love, and his mind was filled with his father's kindness toward him.
