The Concubine's Daughter Travels Through Time and Space and Takes the Road of Confrontation

Inside Sansi Hall.

Manager Liao took the black short blade from the second young master and placed it on the desk.

The King of Nanyue picked up the short blade and looked at it carefully with a sharp look in his eyes, "Wu Chen has been lost for nine years. Where did you find it?" He wanted to see which thief was so bold as to steal from him, Zhou Chong, and look at the blade he had made.

Zhou Zhongyi had already thought of a reason to respond and was about to speak.

Manager Liao bowed and said, "Your Highness, the Crown Prince wishes to see you."

The King of Nanyue raised his hand and sent his youngest son away, "You go back first."

Zhou Zhongyi, I hate him. When he passed by Zhou Boli, his eyes were not eyes, his nose was not nose, and he snorted coldly. Zhou Boli looked straight ahead and bowed to Manager Liao, "Thank you for your trouble, sir."

Zhou Zhongyi's eyes instantly turned red. "Zhou——"

Dazhi covered his master's mouth tightly and pleaded in a low voice, "Master, let's go back quickly. Didn't you say you were going out hunting this afternoon?"

Manager Liao was already accustomed to the way these two brothers got along. The second young master was indeed more like the late Concubine Liu.

Zhou Boli stood in the hall and said, "Son greets father."

The King of Nanyue was carefully wiping his lost and recovered treasure with a handkerchief, and without even looking up, he said, "Sit down."

Zhou Boli's eyes swept across the front, and he suddenly stopped after turning most of his body. The next moment, before Manager Liao could see clearly how the prince moved, he had already stood beside the prince.

Two voices sounded almost simultaneously

"Prince!" This is Manager Liao.

"Rebellious son!" This is the King of Nanyue.

In an instant, the three of them were on edge. Zhou Boli stood close to the King of Nanyue, holding the short blade that the King had treasured just now. Manager Liao, his hand on his waist, stood behind Zhou Boli.

The King of Nanyue opened his eyes wide and glared at his newly-identified unfilial son.

"Father, where did you get this knife?" Zhou Boli stared at it, his chest rising and falling slightly.

The King of Nanyue gave his old friend a look, and Manager Liao returned to his original position with his hands hanging down.

The King of Nanyue reached out and snatched the knife back from his hand, saying sarcastically, "Why? Did you steal this knife from me?"

"It was indeed my son who took it." Zhou Boli's eyes were complicated. "To be precise, I took it from my father's desk with my own hands when I was ten years old."

The King of Nanyue was furious. "So it's you, kid! What's your attitude? Taking things without asking is a crime. Why don't you kowtow to me and admit your fault!"

Zhou Boli took a step back.

The King of Nanyue narrowed his eyes slightly. "What are you going to do? This knife——"

The next moment, he saw his eldest son kneel down and kowtow to him four times. "Father, please tell me where did you get this knife?"

The King of Nanyue was even more angry. "What are you doing? I'm not dead yet. Damn it! Get out of here!"

Manager Liao came over and said, "Prince, please go back first."

Zhou Boli's eyes were filled with emotion. He stretched out his hands firmly and then hugged his old father's thighs tightly. "Father, please tell me about the dagger..."

The white-haired King of Nanyue could no longer contain himself and jumped up from his seat, trembling and slurring his words, not knowing whether he was angry or something else. "It's ruined, Lao Liao, bring me a wrench. No, a cane, pick up the biggest and thickest one!"

"Bang!" The study door was kicked open from the outside. Zhou Zhongyi excitedly held the rattan stick as thick as a child's arm and said, "Father——"

After seeing the situation in the room clearly, he stopped talking.

Her expression turned angry and aggrieved. "Zhou Boli, you are despicable and shameless. In order to compete for my favor, you even resorted to such despicable means."

Zhou Boli withdrew his hand, stood up straight, and scanned the few people with his eyes. Finally, his eyes fell on Zhou Zhongyi's face and he slowly said, "Zhou Zhongyi, the Wuchen sword you found is a fake, because the real one was given to me by my father a long time ago."

"You're talking bullshit. Father said it was true." Zhou Zhongyi rolled up his sleeves. "And this knife was clearly mine—"

King of Nanyue “——”

"Where?" Zhou Boli grabbed his collar fiercely, his voice cold.

Zhou Zhongyi felt as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake. Goose bumps began to appear all over his body. He stubbornly said, "I—I won't tell you! So what!"

"Pa!" With one slap, Zhou Zhongyi's cheek swelled up instantly.

"Say!"

"I--"

"Pa!" followed by another slap. "Speak!"

"I—poof" Zhou Zhongyi's cheeks were red and swollen, and a mouthful of blood sprayed from his mouth to the ground. He was half dead in someone's hand. "I—"

Seeing the situation was not good, Manager Liao stepped forward to stop the prince. "Prince, please take a break. Let's talk things over."

Zhou Zhongyi took the opportunity to dodge, holding his head and hiding behind his father, terrified and with tears in his eyes, he said, "I'm crying, I'm crying."

Looking at his little son who was like a quail, the King of Nanyue had only one thought in his mind. He wanted to go back to 20 years ago and beat to death the self who had coveted Liu's beauty.

Zhou Chong was a famous man throughout his life. He fought in many battles to conquer half of the Qin Dynasty. He recovered Sanchuan in just three years and became the first prince of a different surname in the Qin Dynasty. But in the end, he had such a stupid and cowardly son.

"It was a wild girl living in Mount Gongga. Her purse fell when she ran away, and inside it was this dagger." Zhou Zhongyi glanced at his father as he spoke. After returning, he thought about it carefully. If this wild girl was his father's illegitimate daughter who had been stranded outside, then everything would be explained.

Zhou Boli's eyes were cold. "Where's the purse? And why did she run away?"

Zhou Zhongyi swallowed his saliva. "Because I lied to her, she got angry and moved a big rock to hit me. Then - it killed the schizothorax I had been fishing for almost two months. I got angry and chased her, but she ran away."

"Purse."

Zhou Zhongyi took out his purse tremblingly and said, "It's not lost, it's here, here." He had originally thought that if she really was his father's illegitimate daughter, he would keep it and not lose it.

Manager Liao took over and handed the purse to the prince.

Zhou Boli stroked the little rabbit on his purse, his eyes gradually regaining clarity, and he forced a stiff smile. "Zhongyi, I owe you a favor today. Please lead the way with me."

Zhou Zhongyi was stunned when he heard this. He felt that the pain on his face was not so severe, and his eyes were wandering. In the end, the King of Nanyue dragged him out from behind and said, "Get out!"

Zhou Zhongyi staggered to his feet and cautiously asked, "Really? I promise I've said everything I can, so can you please let me go back to the barracks?"

"Okay!" Zhou Boli said without blinking.

Seeing his youngest son happily following his eldest son, the King of Nanyue suddenly felt like he was neither here nor there.

"Old Liao, was it Liu who first set her sights on you?"

The old steward's back bent even further. "Your Highness, you must be joking. I don't have such great fortune. The second young master is undoubtedly your child."

King of Nanyue “——”

When Princess Gao woke up and learned that the prince had taken his men to Mount Gongga, she leaned on the small square table and slowly stroked the white-bottomed blue-and-white tea bowl in her hand.

"Yao Li, go to Miss Lu in the front yard and tell her that it's inconvenient for her as a young lady to always live in the front. Starting tomorrow, she will move to Qiu Feng Zhai in the back yard. All her food, clothing, and other expenses will be borne by the future Crown Prince's consort."

Yao Li's expression froze slightly. "My Lady, what if the Prince doesn't agree?"

Princess Gao glanced at her and said, "I am his mother. I am just moving to another courtyard. Do I really need to convene a court to discuss the matter and have a three-person trial?"

Yao Li forced a smile and said, "My Lady, that's not what I meant."

Princess Gao said, "Allow her two more maids. Go to Qiufengzhai and serve there first. Come back when Old Zhou has chosen the right ones. The princess is now disfigured, and there are only a few people around her who can be used. If something happens to me in the future, you have served me for so many years and I know you so well. How could I treat you unfairly?"

Yaoli's cheeks blushed, she lowered her head and said nothing.
