The Eldest Princess

Chapter 43

As soon as Xiao Tu saw Yun Cen coming down, he quickly found an excuse to pull him aside, and Yun Zhi also followed slowly.

Seeing that there were no people around, Xiao Tu asked anxiously in a low voice: "Yun Cen, do you understand the principles of being a subject?"

"Of course I understand. I didn't hit you too hard. Why are you in such a hurry to teach me a lesson?"

Yun Cen didn't care. He raised his chin slightly with pride and said with a hint of disdain in his eyes: "Win is win, lose is lose, what's the point of pretending? That's the crime of deceiving the king!"

Furthermore, he did not think that the brother raised by Asan would be such a narrow-minded monarch.

"You..." Xiao Tu frowned and was about to say something but was stopped by Yun Zhi.

"Yun Cen, Xiao Tu is so anxious because he cares about you. Brothers should not hurt each other's relationship just because of harsh words."

As soon as the clear and lazy voice came out, the conversation, which was about to escalate, returned to normal.

"Don't worry, Xiao Tu. In my opinion, Yun Cen should be fine this time."

Yun Zhi chuckled, with a meaningful look in his eyes that neither of the people present noticed.

Things really developed as Yun Zhi said. Near the end, the emperor praised Yun Cen again.

Then came a passage with profound meaning, "Fortunately, the court is full of people like Young Master Yun, otherwise I would have to take care of everything myself."

"Those who lost to me in the past..." He pointed out one by one every person who pretended to let him go, his gentle smile remained unchanged, but his tone became a little heavier.

"We should do as Young Master Yun said and be attentive. Otherwise, how can we be my elite soldiers and my right-hand men?"

"Yes, Your Majesty." The boys who were mentioned did not dare to hesitate and all knelt down to salute.

After thinking carefully, they found that His Majesty had not missed anyone, and they were all horrified that the Emperor had already seen through it.

Everyone present, especially the rest of the people in Zhixin Hall, were still frightened when they came to their senses.

Only the elders who were familiar with Xuan Ruichen knew that this was only reasonable.

The eldest princess has been both talented and virtuous since childhood, and her brilliance is truly dazzling. After coming to power, she has shown a different kind of ruthlessness than before, which has attracted a lot of attention.

To the extent that many people overlooked the fact that this boy, who was born to be trained to be the king of a country, was one in a million.

When no one was paying attention, Shi Er, dressed in eunuch's clothes, quietly entered Xuan Ruichen's sight. After the two made eye contact, Shi Er nodded twice gently.

Xuan Ruichen's heart sank, and he turned to Yun Cen and said with a smile: "Young Master Yun has won, so I should give him some favors."

"I have a sword made by Old Qin in my house, which is in the Purple Palace. If you have time today, you might as well come with me to the palace and visit the Imperial Grandmother, who asked about your recent situation a few days ago."

Yun Cen's eyes lit up when he heard this, but then quickly dimmed for a moment.

His eyes drifted away uncomfortably, and then he nodded with a bright smile on his face.
