My Lord, the princess doesn't want you anymore.

The King of Chu was shorter, like a duck being held by the neck, but he still had a smile on his face. "Your Highness, you are too impatient. In fact, you don't have to be like this. Whether Miss Mei is the daughter of Princess Anping of Nanyue or the daughter of Prime Minister Mei of Zhen Kingdom, it actually has nothing to do with me."

Cui Hongjing's face was terribly cold, and he gritted his teeth and said, "You, what else do you know?"

"Not much. In Changguo, this news is currently known only to me." The King of Chu gently pried his hands apart and straightened his collar. "However, Your Majesty may not know that my father hates Princess Anping. If he knew that the daughter of his enemy is lying in this inn recovering from her injuries, what do you think he would do?"

Cui Hongjing's chest rose and fell violently, and his scarlet eyes stared at the King of Chu, "Nanyue and Changguo have never had any contact. I don't know how Princess Anping offended your father."

King of Chu: "Your Highness should know that more than 20 years ago, there was a great war between Changguo and Zhenguo. At that time, my father was only a prince, and he led our Dachang Iron Cavalry and almost approached the capital of Zhenguo. At that time, Nanyue was still a vassal state of Zhenguo. If Zhenguo was gone, Nanyue would also perish. In a hurry, Princess Anping rushed north to help Zhenguo as the daughter of the Nanyue King. My father did not take a small country like Nanyue seriously at that time, and he underestimated the enemy and was defeated by Princess Anping. It was not that Princess Anping was very capable, but my father fell into the poison of the Nanyue royal family and was captured alive by Princess Anping. Princess Anping did not know that she had captured the prince of Changguo at that time, and thought it was just an ordinary general. "The leader wanted to kill him. At the critical moment, it was the secret guards and death warriors around my father who risked their lives to save my father. Most of the secret guards and death warriors who had been trained for many years around my father also died. My father was already deeply poisoned at the time and could not supervise the battle. In addition, the reinforcements from the Zhenguo arrived, so my father had to withdraw quickly. If not, Zhenguo would have been my Dachang territory now. After my father came back, he invited the best doctors and used the best medicines. He barely detoxified, but his health was greatly damaged. You know why my father's health has deteriorated over the years, and he even needs my mother to help manage the government. It's because the remaining poison could not be completely eliminated, leaving hidden dangers. And all this is thanks to Princess Anping."

Prince Cui Hongjing was horrified. Although he was not born more than 20 years ago, he knew about that battle, but he was not aware of the twists and turns involved.

If he had known this earlier, he would never have brought Mei Xueer to Changguo.

The King of Chu continued, "It was precisely because of his damaged body that Father almost lost his qualification to be the crown prince. So being captured that time was also the greatest shame of his life!"

Cui Hongjing sneered: "Since it is the greatest shame, Your Majesty, as a son, can tell me with a smile on his face? Your Majesty's behavior is really unexpected."

The King of Chu seemed not to hear the sarcasm in his words and laughed, "Your Majesty, you are overpraising me. In fact, I haven't done well enough and there is still a lot of room for improvement."

The King of Chu paused, and then said, "Your Highness, do you think that if the Emperor knew that Miss Mei was the daughter of Princess Anping, he would let her leave Changguo alive? Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you that I know the Emperor best, and he is not as kind as he looks. What word is more appropriate to describe him? Yes, sanctimonious, that's what I mean by people like him... I know that Prince Jing is a martial arts expert, and he is surrounded by many experts. But after all, you are seriously injured and have not recovered, and this is in Yecheng... I am really worried about Miss Mei's safety."

"Are you threatening me?" Veins on Cui Hongjing's forehead throbbed.

"Yes, I am using Miss Mei's life to threaten you."

"You are the only one in the world who can justify such shameless behavior in such a high-sounding way."

"Shameless?" The King of Chu laughed. "If we talk about shamelessness, I am not as good as your emperor. Princess Anping risked her life to help the Zhen Kingdom resist foreign invasion, but only a few years later, the Zhen Emperor had people destroy Nanyue and slaughter all the royal family members of Nanyue. Your Majesty, do you think your father is shameless?"

Cui Hongjing looked at the provocative look of the King of Chu and remained unmoved.

The King of Chu, who does not play by the rules, has no moral integrity. Since he dares to say these things in front of him, he must have a backup plan.

If something unexpected happens, what will Mei Xueer do...

The deal that the King of Chu mentioned must require him to do something extraordinary.

"Could it be that you want to use me to get rid of King Kang?"

The King of Chu chuckled, "Although I have a bad reputation, some even say that I am so bad that I have sores on my head and pus on my feet. But I will never do something like killing my brother. If I do this, my reputation will be even worse."

"Why choose me? With your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to find a few people in Changguo who are willing to die for you and work for you."

"No, no, no, Your Highness thinks too highly of me." The King of Chu laughed at himself, "I just said that I have always had a bad reputation in Changguo... Besides, after this is done, the biggest beneficiary is me, so no matter who we find to cooperate, my father will think it was me who ordered it. But you are different, you are an outsider, and you and I are enemies who had to fight to the death on the battlefield not long ago. Therefore, you are the most suitable person to do this... I am really smart, handsome and smart."

Cui Hongjing: I have seen shameless people, but I have never seen someone so shameless, treacherous, without moral integrity or bottom line, and extremely narcissistic.

When leaving the posthouse, the King of Chu was in a good mood.

He looked up at the sky.

The sky is gray, which is nice.

Tonight's palace banquet will surely be very lively.

"Your Highness, have you really thought it through?" Bai Feng came closer. "In this way, the status of King Kang will be superior to yours."

The King of Chu smiled and said, "This way, Father will not suspect me, right?"

He patted Bai Feng on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Li Mo is right. We should look further ahead and not just focus on the present, even if it is to vent my mother's anger. In addition, you know that for so many years, this prince has done nothing but focus on one thing, which is to figure out my father's mind. In his eyes, Prince Kang is not that kind of material at all..."
