“All Yi.” Chu You pulled a long face and said to Chu Yi in the tone of an elder reprimanding a junior, “This is your fault.”
“As a prince, you represent the royal family and the imperial court. How can you pay respect to a rebel general!”
“Once this matter spreads, it will affect the prestige of the imperial court!”
Chu You said righteously, with the high air of a victor.
Beside him, Yuan Zhe’s eyes flashed, and the corners of his lips curled up behind the wine glass.
Ever since the Eldest Prince returned to the capital last year, his actions have been watertight. Today, when he heard that he had gone to Wuliang Temple to pay respects to Gu Ce, Yuan Zhe couldn’t believe it.
The few of them were originally drinking at the Dragon Restaurant. Yuan Zhe immediately discussed this with Chu You and decided to seize this rare opportunity. He temporarily brought Wang Nan and Baili Yin here to block the Eldest Prince, hoping to catch him off guard…
Chu Yi also stared into Chu You’s eyes and asked indifferently, “Imperial Uncle, did the previous Emperor say that Marquis Gu was a rebel back then?”
“…” Chu You’s lips stiffened, and his long and narrow eyes darkened.
He wasn’t the only one who knew. Everyone present knew that the previous Emperor had never said it. Yuan Zhe and Wang Nan actually didn’t understand why the previous Emperor would gently overlook such a huge sin.
“Did the late Emperor say anything?” Chu Yi asked again. His tone was clearly gentle, but there was a hint of pressure.
“…” Chu You was speechless and forcefully pulled a long face.
“Imperial Uncle’s memory isn’t very good.” Chu Yi smiled faintly.
He raised his glass and drank. His every move exuded a gentle and clear temperament. He was like a spring breeze turning to rain or a green bamboo. He was so clean that it was difficult to look at him angrily.
Listening to the uncle and nephew’s back and forth, the anger in Wang Nan’s heart rose steadily, but he suppressed it. Every time he glanced at the saber on the ground from the corner of his eye, his expression turned even uglier.
But he couldn’t bring himself to pick up the knife on the ground.
Wang Nan raised his head and finished the strong wine in his cup in one gulp. He roughly wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve.
Chu You’s gaze was fixed on Chu Yi the entire time. His eyes were sinister as he asked again, “Do you mean to say that you believe there was injustice in Gu Ce’s surrender to the enemy nine years ago, and you want to clear his name?”
His tone was extremely slow, and every word was powerful. It was obvious that he was talking to the others present, which was equivalent to pushing Chu Yi forward.
With Wang Nan here, Chu Yi dared to say that Gu Ce had been wronged. Tomorrow, Wang Nan will naturally make this matter known to the entire court.
Chu You’s eyes flashed with anticipation. Wang Nan’s dissatisfied gaze was like a knife as he glanced at Chu Yi.
Facing such a situation, Chu Yi’s expression was still calm. He said clearly, “Injustice.”
Chu You was stunned and a little disappointed. He sneered in his heart: This nephew of mine is only so-so. in the end, he doesn’t dare risk the world’s condemnation fora woman.
The next moment, Chu Yi’s clear and warm voice sounded again.
“It’s restoring his honor.”
“In the name of Gu Ce’s innocence.”
Even though it was noisy outside, his voice clearly resounded throughout the private room. Everyone could hear him clearly.
“Clap!”
Chu Yi’s last sentence completely angered Wang Nan. He suddenly exploded and slapped the table heavily, causing the wine glass beside him to tremble and the wine to splash out.
The wine splattered on the table and the back of his hand. One of the drops happened to land on Xia Houqing’s red sleeve.
A dark water stain appeared on his new, flawless sleeve.
It was dirty!
It was over!
When Gu Yanfei saw the tragedy happen, her expression instantly became very strange.
Xia Houqing’s aura changed in an instant as he slowly looked at Wang Nan.
Those bewitching phoenix eyes were filled with a sense of aggression. At this moment, his beautiful eyebrows lowered slightly, revealing a killing intent from the inside out.
These eyes didn’t look like human eyes. Instead, they were like the eyes of a poisonous snake. There was no emotion that belonged to a human at all. There was only a world-destroying emotion, as if he would kill everyone present with a thought.
Baili Yin, who was finally at ease, felt his heart skip a beat.
He panicked again and placed the wine glass on the table unsteadily, making an ear-piercing thump.
This gaze is too similar to Xia Houqings!
Baili Yin was flustered and didn’t even have the mood to drink. He kept glancing at the young man in red. The more he looked at him, the more familiar he felt.
Their gazes were alike, their postures were alike, and their high and mighty contempt was even more similar to the cruelty of treating human lives like grass!
