Abandoned Prince: Summon the Sword God at the beginning

Chu Kuangke was startled by the sudden shouting. He clearly heard someone calling his name. He looked for the person who spoke in the mansion but had no clue.

Li Jiao's voice came again, full of energy and even louder than before, "Don't look around in the mansion, this prince is outside your mansion."

Chu Kuangke didn't care about the guests in the mansion and hurried to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the deposed Crown Prince Li Jiao. He had done something wrong, so he naturally felt guilty when he saw his host.

He plucked up his courage and asked, "I wonder what business your Highness has brought you to my humble residence?"

Li Jiao smiled and said, "Master Chu has become so powerful after only a few days in office. This prince admires you very much. When you first spoke in the Crown Prince's Mansion, you didn't have such momentum as you do now. 'When a scholar is away for three days, he should be treated with new eyes.' Master Chu really makes me look at him with favor!"

Chu Kuangke smiled and said, "Your Highness, you are too kind. I am just lucky. I didn't expect to be left out in the cold at the Crown Prince's Mansion, with no hope of entering the official career. I can only write a few poems to suit the occasion, wasting my time. I feel ashamed when I think about it."

Li Jiao sneered, "Master Chu, are you blaming me for not recommending you to my father?"

Chu Kuangke said: "I dare not do it anymore."

Li Jiao said, "Master Chu, this prince is visiting you today to confirm something."

Chu Kuangke's left eye twitched wildly. He was worried that disaster was about to happen, but he still said with a stiff upper lip: "Your Highness, please give your orders. I will do my best."

Li Jiao said, "Lord Chu, before the Prince's Mansion was sealed, a large number of antiques and paintings were missing. They were priceless. My maid saw Lord Chu helping to collect them. Now that I have returned to the capital, you can take them out!"

Chu Kuangke said angrily, "Although your highness is no longer the crown prince, he is still a prince. How can you slander his innocence out of thin air? When did I take the prince's things? That lowly maid must have made a mistake, or she stole the treasures and sent them back to her parents' home."

Yun Ni had never seen such a shameless person. It was clearly him who took away the treasures from the Prince's Mansion, but he put the blame on her. He was so evil.

Yun Ni was a little worried that the prince would believe her words and doubt herself. Li Jiao gave her a reassuring look, and she calmed down. She said to Chu Kuangke: "You are an official of the court after all. You stole the prince's things, so why are you accusing me?"

At this time, Chu Kuangke calmed down instead. Li Jiao was no longer the crown prince, and His Majesty did not confer him the title of prince. Although he had royal blood, he was ultimately just a commoner, not much nobler than himself.

Chu Kuangke said: "Prince, you are slandering court officials with nothing. Aren't you afraid of being impeached by the censors?"

Li Jiao said jokingly: "Chu Kuangke, this prince was blind to let a wolf into the house. However, you must give this prince an explanation today!"

Chu Kuangke laughed and said, "How shameless! What is your status now? You are not even as good as ordinary people. They at least have their own homes, but you are just a stray dog."

Li Jiao immediately seized the loophole in his words and said, "How dare you, Chu Kuangke, call me a dog? No matter how bad I am, I am still the emperor's son. If you say that, what does the emperor mean to you?"

Chu Kuangke was horrified when he heard this. He had just spoken without thinking and cursed Li Jiao. He had forgotten the relationship between the deposed prince and the current emperor. His curse was equivalent to indirectly cursing the emperor. At this moment, many guests were present. He could not deny it and was very anxious.
