The Princess Story's
The Past Part 2
Back then, King Wei had been exposed to the poison mixed into his food. One of his troops had been bribed to spy on King Wei's activities. He was asked to poison his master's food the day before they returned to the capital.
"If you don't sign, I'll kill Xuan!" threaten Han Ze Ti's.
Not wanting the two brothers to kill each other, Emperor Han Ze Shang signed a false will given by his son. He hoped that the relationship of the two brothers would remain, regardless of who would become Emperor in the future.
After he signed the fake will, Han Ze Shang asked his son. "Ze Ti, why are you so obsessed with becoming an Emperor?"
"Who doesn't want to be Emperor? Who does not want to have the highest power? Doesn't my question sound strange?" answer by asking a variety of questions.
Han Ze Ti then asked his father, "Why? Why did you choose Xuan, not me? What is my lack? What's my weakness that you didn't choose me as heir?"
"Ze Ti, you don't have any flaws. Precisely because of that, you are not fit to be an Emperor. Ze Xuan is different from you, he's just a naive guy who likes to budge. That's why I chose Ze Xuan. He likes to give as much as possible, it's a good thing to lead the people to a better and prosperous path.
As for you, you are very smart and insightful. But your intelligence is only for yourself. You don't think about the people, all you want just for the sake of the advancement of this palace without considering how the people's lives are out there.
If you become a commander, it's a perfect fit because you'll definitely win all the battles with your intelligent and ruthless brain. But as Emperor, it was too troublesome and depressing for the people.
I don't want to see the people of Han suffer just for the betterment of our country. It is we who must help them to make their lives more prosperous, not the other way around." explained Emperor Han Ze Shang.
"Haha...! It's all dad's reasons. All leaders would definitely think about the progress of the palace. No one cares about the lowly people out there. They are only used for the advancement of the empire." Han Ze Ti said in an increasingly high voice.
"Basic crazy!" maki King Wei who could not bear to hear the words of her brother.
"Crazy? What did you say? You're saying I'm crazy? Aye! I have gone mad! I'm crazy because you always choose me! I've been trying so hard since I was a kid, but why? Why is everything yours? People who never try and never do anything for the country! Why do you have to have it all?" han Ze Ti's snapping grew increasingly emotional.
"Sister, if you say so, I will give this throne willingly to you. I don't need this throne, I just want to live a happy and simple life" King Wei said.
"I don't want mercy from you! What I want, I'll get it myself with my effort and strength!" answer Han Ze Ti.
"Here you go, I'm lazy to argue with you! Since I gave you the throne, can you let go now?" pinta King Wei who was getting tired of this quarrel.
"Dad can't go anywhere. Father will continue to be here until I ascend the throne." replied Han Ze Ti rejecting King Wei's request.
"You're really crazy, aren't you? I'm sick now!" snapped King Wei with a reddened face.
"You think I'm stupid? I'm not gonna let you get out of here. You'll just get in the way of my plan!" hann Ze Ti's.
"Ze Xuan, stop! Get rid of this fight. You are brothers, you cannot hate each other. Ze Ti, promise me you'll treat Ze Xuan well. You can't interfere with his life later on. You have to promise!" the Pinta Han Ze Shang.
"Dad...!" King Wei was about to protest, but Emperor Han Ze Shang shook his head, hinting at him to put an end to all this.
King Wei could only obey the wishes of his father. He did not want to make his father's heart hurt and broken by the quarrel of his two children.
Han Ze Ti then approached King Wei, silently piercing a needle that had been drugged into his sister's neck. King Wei fell, but Han Ze Ti immediately restrained his body.
"You! What did you do to Ze Xuan?" han Ze Shang snapped with a worried face.
"I just put him to sleep. Father need not worry, since I promised, I won't hurt Xuan." replied Han Ze Ti.
The man brought King Wei out, he instilled poison to change King Wei's memory. Starting from his father who was locked up and then the will that will be his. All those memories are in the deep tomb.
"From now on, you'll remember if my father's will is written on the throne that will be passed down to Han Ze Ti. You will forget all the memories of today." whispered Han Ze Ti to his sister's still unconscious ear.
The next day, King Wei woke up feeling confused and curious. He recalled kneeling before his father's grave. "Why am I in my room? Who brought me here? Did I faint on my knees?" questions arose in the heart of King Wei.
End Flashback
"It turns out from the beginning the Emperor's throne did not belong to Han Ze Ti!" said Se Se.
King Wei nodded, "But I don't want the throne. So from now on, I'll bury the bad happenings in my heart. Xing will be the heir to the throne, I will resign from the post of King of Wei. We will live simply in the future without interfering with the government of the country." said King Wei, looking into his wife's eyes.
"really? Xuan is going to relinquish this title?" se Se asked with a surprised face. She did not expect that her husband would give up his title. The King of Wei he knew, was a figure of a man who would sacrifice his life for the country. She had a hard time believing what had just sounded in her small ears.
"Yes, I will relinquish my title and position as prince. I will live as a commoner. Does my wife mind living with a commoner like me?" asked King Wei with a smile.
Se Se shook his head, he was very happy to hear the reply from King Wei. "I like this decision! Thank you Xuan...!" se Se replied with a happy smile.
The couple hugged, they were happy to think about the times of being ordinary people who did not need to think about many things and competition.
"Let's live happily with the kids. We don't need to care anymore about anything else." said King Wei as he looked at Se Se's face.
Se Se nodded slowly, smiling and laughing. A kiss she gave to her beloved husband. The kiss was reciprocated with a warm and gentle kiss from King Wei.
"I love you so much, my wife!"
