Chapter 87 Complaint
87 Complaint
“It’s fine.” Chu Yi coughed again and recovered. He smiled at the Emperor and lowered his head to drink his tea.
Father and son were affectionate and the son was filial. Prince Li, who was originally angered by Chu You, softened his expression.
Chu Yi slowly took two sips of tea and heard the curtain in front of him being carefully lifted. Then a middle-aged eunuch reported in a sharp voice, “Your Majesty, the British Duke is here. He’s kneeling outside.”
The Emperor raised his eyebrows. His voice was low but not aged. “What is the British Duke doing?” he asked flatly.
!!
His tone was neither light nor heavy, it was extremely clear and had the bearing of a king.
Chu You’s thin lips pressed into a straight line, and Prince Li frowned.
A dignified first-ranked duke kneeling outside was either asking for forgiveness or seeking justice. No matter what, it would definitely cause speculation among the civil and military officials.
Chu Yi held the teacup and lowered his head to smell the fragrance of the tea, then he took slow sips.
The middle-aged eunuch who came to report lowered his head again and replied slowly, “The British Duke said that Crown Prince Fang was injured by His Highness Kang w.a.n.g. He wants to ask the Emperor to uphold justice for the Crown Prince.”
Even without looking up, the middle-aged eunuch could feel Chu You’s knife-like gaze on him, and his back was covered in cold sweat.
“Sigh.” Chu Yi’s elegant and gentle voice sounded again. “The British Duke is an old minister who founded the country. They say that all birds are hidden by the bow, but Emperor Taizu is magnanimous and never killed the meritorious officials in vain. He left behind beautiful stories about the Emperor and minister, unlike the previous dynasty’s Emperor Qi…”
Prince Li was 64 years old this year. He had also followed Emperor Taizu and personally witnessed his peerless bearing.
He loved to hear about Emperor Taizu’s deeds the most. Every time he recalled the past, his blood would boil with pa.s.sion.
“Well said!” Prince Li slapped his thigh heavily. He suddenly looked several years younger and was in high spirits. “Your Majesty’s breadth of mind is extraordinary!”
In comparison, Kang w.a.n.g was not like his ancestors. He shouted to kill for some romantic reasons and even dared to attack the descendants of the founders!
When Prince Li looked at Chu You again, he shook his head and sighed. Then, he frowned and said in a low voice, “Ning Zhi, you injured the British Crown Prince today. Others will only say that a descendant of the imperial family injured the British heir. If this goes wrong, someone might think that the Emperor is using this as an excuse to kill the founder of the country.”
Just as Chu Yi had said, Emperor Qi of the previous dynasty discarded a worthy person when he has served his purpose. In less than ten years after the founding of the country, he had killed more than half of the founding officials. It was bone-chilling.
“…” The corners of Chu You’s eyes twitched.
The Emperor slowly stroked his beard and was about to ask the eunuch to call the British Duke in when Chu Yi said, “Father, I’ll go take a look.”
The Emperor had always doted on Chu Yi and agreed without hesitation. “Alright, go and comfort the British Duke.”
Chu Yi elegantly covered the tea lid and placed the teacup back on the coffee table. He turned to look at Chu You and asked with a smile, “Seventh Imperial Uncle, do you want to come with me?”
Chu You responded with practical actions and stood up with a dark expression.
They pa.s.sed through the double curtains and arrived at the entrance to the East Warm Pavilion.
Fang Huairui, who was wearing a first-grade embroidered scarlet robe, knelt on the cold ground with his head half lowered and his face dark.
When he saw a pair of white boots enter his field of vision, the corners of Fang Huairui’s mouth tightened. When he looked up, his round copper eyes were red with tears.
“Your Highness, my son was injured by Kang w.a.n.g and is still unconscious. His fate is unknown…”
“I have to seek justice for my son no matter what!”
Fang Huairui wailed at Chu Yi. Towards the end, his voice was hoa.r.s.e, but his cries were 60% fake and 40% real.
Fang Mingfeng was Fang Huairui’s eldest son and had once been his pride.
Seeing his son injured, Fang Huairui’s heart ached. At this moment, when he faced Chu You, his eyes were filled with resentment and dissatisfaction, as if he would rush up and punch Chu You in the next moment.
There was no need for him to act out this at all, and his emotions were quite on point.
“Fang Mingfeng reaped what he sowed,” Chu You said coldly.
“Your Highness, Kang w.a.n.g has really gone too far!” One moment, Fang Huairui pointed at Chu You, and the next moment, he wiped his tears with his sleeve. “My son is a little rash, but it’s understandable. His Highness Kang w.a.n.g used a sharp weapon to hurt someone without a word. He’s really gone too far…”
Thinking back to the entire matter, Fang Huairui felt a little complicated.
Chu Yi’s plan was not hidden from him. In fact, Fang Huairui had turned a blind eye to Fang Mingfeng’s ability to sneak out of the British Mansion this morning.
Mingfeng had had a smooth life since he was young and had never encountered setbacks. As a result, he had developed such an arrogant personality. Recently, he had become more and more outrageous, so it was time for him to suffer and learn.
It was better to suffer now than lose his life in the future.
A sharp glint flashed across Fang Huairui’s eyes.
Seeing that Fang Huairui did not know how to appreciate favors, Chu You’s expression darkened.
Chu Yi took another step forward and advised politely, “British Duke, go back first. Father already knows about this and will give you an explanation.”
His voice was as clear as the wind, filled with the power to comfort one’s heart.
However, to Fang Huairui, Chu Yi’s words were cold.
The corners of Fang Huairui’s eyes twitched violently. He pretended to wipe his tears again and sighed. He had really boarded a pirate s.h.i.+p!
The Eldest Prince looked gentle and harmless on the surface, but he was actually a black-hearted lotus. He was probably unable to get off this pirate s.h.i.+p.
He could have watched coldly as Chu Yi and Chu You fought. He did not have to get involved in this mess.
The more Fang Huairui thought about it, the sadder he became. At this moment, he really wanted to cry. He could not help but vent his anger on Kang w.a.n.g. He said, “Your Majesty, please seek justice. A life for a life…”
