Li Changshi's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't respond.
He knew that Yang Xiu was deliberately trying to sow discord and win him over. Unfortunately, he could neither refuse nor agree to such an offer, so he could only pretend not to understand.
If Yang Xiu was still the crown prince of Zhou, he might consider accepting the other party's invitation.
But now Yang Xiu has been demoted to a commoner and has been poisoned, so he may not be able to return to power in the future.
How could he possibly board Yang Xiu's shabby ship and entrust his future, life and property to such a useless person?
Li Changshi skipped the previous topic and analyzed with a serious expression: "If this Luo Zheng is the Luo Yunsheng that Your Highness mentioned, and his entire family was killed, it means that he has a blood feud with the prince!
In this case, this person must hate the prince to the core, and probably hate His Highness and the Princess as well.
Not long ago, he went to Gusu and delivered Liu Yu and Fang Shuo's confessions to His Majesty. I'm afraid this man had already secretly gathered intelligence while in Gusu, and after returning, he even spread a lot of slanderous words to Your Majesty!"
The more he spoke, the more solemn his expression became, and finally he said directly, "We must rush back to Gusu as soon as possible and report this matter to the prince!
Luo Zheng is a favorite of Concubine Jiang. If he hates the prince to the core, he will be a huge threat. We must find a way to get rid of him as soon as possible!"
At this point, he sighed regretfully, "It's a pity that we didn't know this man's identity before, and let him return to the capital alive. Otherwise, we could have eliminated him on the way and avoided the subsequent trouble."
Seeing that he had deliberately avoided the previous topic, Yang Xiu felt a little unhappy in his heart, but he did not dare to show it. He only said with a gloomy face: "Luo Yunsheng was just a small figure like an ant in the past. Father never took him seriously, so naturally he had no impression of him."
If he had not happened to be in that place that year and had not been attracted by Luo Yunsheng's appearance and paid more attention to him, he would not have remembered this person.
After not seeing each other for many years, the other person looks even better than before.
It's a pity that the other party has now become a favorite of Concubine Jiang, and he, the prince of Zhou, has to kneel before him and listen to him read out the imperial edict, demoting him to a commoner.
Whenever Yang Xiu recalled that humiliating scene, he would grit his teeth in hatred and feel a crazy impulse to be violent.
He wanted to kill, to smell blood.
But he can't do anything now.
The person sitting with him was Li Changshi, and this place was not Gusu either.
He could neither attack Li Changshi nor allow anyone to capture anyone on the street and kill them.
Because Lin Xiao captured a baby, Emperor Taihe demoted him to a commoner.
If he dared to kill someone on the road, Emperor Taihe would definitely use this as an excuse to make him pay for the life of that untouchable!
Yang Xiu doesn't want to die yet.
So he could only clutch the quilt tightly and suppress the bloodthirsty impulse in his heart.
Li Changshi noticed his abnormality and felt a sinking feeling in his heart. He secretly decided to speed up his return.
If Yang Xiu caused a death on the road, he, as the chief officer of the royal palace, would be held responsible!
Li Changshi quickly passed down the order, and the carriage ran even faster.
It only took five days for the team to rush back to the Zhouwang Palace in Gusu.
However, because they were in a hurry to get on the road, Yang Xiu and Yang Shu's expressions became even worse.
Yang Xiu was poisoned, and Yang Shu had four deep scars on her face from the wolf's claws.
After she was escorted back to the capital, Emperor Taihe asked the imperial physician to treat her wounds, but the wounds were too deep, so the imperial physician could only suture them and then apply medicine and bandage them.
When they set out from the capital, Yang Shu's wound had not fully healed. The bumpy journey caused the wound to tear constantly, making the situation even worse.
However, when Yang Xiu and Yang Shu got off the carriage and saw the towering gate and plaque of the Gusu Zhouwang Palace, they were still extremely excited.
