But, the truth was that they only became so powerful because of their big brother.
Try to imagine this. If his big brother helped and supported him instead, would he be able to secure his position as the next king?
Di Jingchen, who still hated Di Jingxuan, suddenly got on his knees and begged Di Jingxuan.
“Big brother!” Di Jingchen screamed from the bottom of his heart.
“Grandfather was the one who killed your mother, and he was also the one who wanted to kill your wife. I have nothing to do with it!
“Di Jingan was the one who killed my uncle! I have already tortured him at the gates! I was the one who avenged you! How could you support the Wu family?
“Big brother, I am your biological brother! Since you’re so powerful, you should have supported me instead! Could you please ask them to stop the protest outside?”
Di Jingxuan turned toward Di Jingchen who was on his knees with an interesting look in his eyes.
He shook his head and said, “Nope.”
Di Jingxuan looked up and was in disbelief as he asked Di Jingxuan, “Why…..Why not?!”
“Can’t you see that I’m doing this for revenge?” Di Jingxuan asked.
“My mother died because of Di Zhong, and my father died because of your brother. Your family and I…..are enemies. How would I help the brother of the man who killed my father? Compared to you, the Wu family is also my family. They are my cousin brothers as well. Plus, they are not my enemies. Why should I help you instead of them?”
“But….I was the one who avenged you! Plus, I was the one who gathered money for the compensation of 246 lives!”
“Should you be the one doing it? Or perhaps you were waiting for me to do it? Huh?”
Di Jingxuan’s voice was monotonous. He didn’t seem arrogant and was nicely talking to Di Jingchen.
“You’re right! I should have been to one to collect them. Big brother, I have already done what you wanted. You should be supporting me!!! Please! I beg you! I need your support!”
“Huh? I never thought of being involved in your family matters, but Di Jingan and Di Zhong had to show their faces and disgust me. I have no other choices. For years, they have sent men to kill me, but I ignored them.
“But, they had no idea that I hate them more than the assassins. So, every time I see them, I get mad.
“I already made it clear that I am not his grandson, but he had to call himself my grandfather. Don’t you think that this old man is disgusting?”
After hearing what Di Jingxuan said, Di Jingchen stared at Di Zhong with eyes filled with fury.
At this point, he was Di Jingxuan’s brother and was standing on Di Jingxuan’s side.
Di Zhong stared at Di Jingchen who wanted to murder him. Then, he looked at Di Jingxuan who never took himself as part of this Di family. He couldn’t hold it in anymore and started laughing out loud.
Tears were rolling down his skinny cheeks as well. It rolled all the way to his mouth, and he could even taste the bitterness in his tears.
How did things turn out this way?
He remembered how Xunren came back with joy when he first brought the woman he loved to the palace. His son wanted his approval, but Di Zhong denied it.
This was because he thought of his son as the most brilliant child. He deserved better.
The daughter of the Li family was perfect. If she were to marry Di Xunren, they would be a powerful couple.
This was why he picked on Sang Mo.
But, Sang Mo was a brilliant woman as well.
