When Chen Changli heard this, he suppressed his anger and said in a precise tone: "Xiaoguan and the prince do have a good relationship, but I will never be angry because of your words. After all, I am not a narrow-minded person."

Deliberately emphasizing the tone of the last few words, Chen Changli continued without waiting for King Duan to speak: "Your Majesty's loyalty to His Majesty cannot be tested by anyone. Your Highness, King Duan, why don't you think of ways to test me here?" Officer, it’s better to state your purpose directly.”

Prince Duan and the other princes all wanted to have military power in their hands, so they all tried their best to intervene in the southwest boundary matter this time.

The emperor also gave them the opportunity for his own purposes, so they should find a way to arrange their own people now, and then find a way to solve the problem in the southwest boundary, and then increase their strength.

But King Duan came to find him and used threats to win over him.

Chen Changli concluded that King Duan wanted him to advise his people, or to directly find a way to help him completely suppress the rebels in the southwest.

King Duan's thoughts are really funny. After all, he can't go to the southwest boundary. Even if he knows the situation in the southwest boundary, he has no way to command the soldiers to kill the rebels.

So when Chen Changli heard that Prince Duan was using the crown prince to mock him, he couldn't help but express his thoughts and asked him to be direct and clear-cut and stop beating around the bush with him.

"What a Chen Changli. I think it's your attitude that makes the prince care about you so much."

When King Duan heard Chen Changli's straightforward words, he always felt that he was mocking himself.

He didn't have time to collect his emotions, so he taunted him back in a weird way.

"It's a pity that the prince has troubled you from the beginning. If you don't listen to my advice and insist on going against me, then I can only try my best to make you and the prince doomed."

King Duan smiled coldly after saying this, and his eyes turned colder when he looked at Chen Changli.

If there wasn't anyone around him, he would have called someone in to give Chen Changli a serious blow, so that he would never dare to treat him with such an attitude in the future.

However, in order to win over Chen Changli today, he directly kicked him out.

Chen Changli was good at martial arts, but had a bad temper and was as hard as a stone in a latrine. King Duan couldn't help but worry that if he said something wrong, he would be cruel to him.

He cherished his life very much and would not let Chen Changli hurt him.

However, Chen Changli's attitude was really abominable. King Duan had never seen anyone like him before.

If Chen Changli hadn't been at odds with Anyang Houfu, he would have really wanted to use Anyang Hou to trap Chen Changli to death so that he would no longer be able to help the prince.

"I have never wanted to go against His Highness. It was His Highness who misunderstood me, which led to the conflict between you and me." Chen Changli said in a very calm tone.

He looked at King Duan with a very cold look, as if the threat in every word of King Duan was not heard by him at all.

King Duan was not a good-tempered person, and he had great opinions on Chen Changli because of the prince.

If Chen Changli hadn't been killed before, his reputation would have been tarnished.

King Duan really wanted to carry out another assassination in the capital and completely kill Chen Changli, a stubborn man.

It is a pity that Chen Changli helped the refugees and his reputation in the hearts of the people became even better.

If King Duan continued to act as recklessly as before, the people's spit would be enough to drown him.

He wanted to be the emperor, so he didn't want the people to scold him.

He also wanted to be praised by the people and then sit on the throne firmly.

However, such a brave general like Chen Changli was not his, but the prince's.

Prince Duan was really worried that the prince would rely on Chen Changli to completely reverse his decline.

With various thoughts surging in his heart, King Duan suppressed his anger and suppressed the murderous intention in his heart, and then softened his expression.

"I never thought that this king still has some status in your heart. It seems that you are only loyal to your father as you said."

After touching his chin and thinking for a while, King Duan smiled again.

His smile this time was a bit obscure and complicated, but his cold expression showed that he was in an unusual mood at the moment.

Just because he suddenly felt that his guess about Chen Changli was wrong, this made this wooing very unsatisfactory.

He actually didn't take Chen Changli seriously before. After all, although Chen Changli was related to Anyang Houfu, he had lived with his father who was kicked out of Anyanghoufu since he was a child.

He did not receive an orthodox aristocratic education at all, and because of this, King Duan believed in his heart that he was a wild man who would only be used by the prince.

Now that Chen Changli said such words, he also emphasized his loyalty to the emperor several times.

King Duan had to look at Chen Changli squarely.

He believes that today's Chen Changli is worthy of being valued by him.

He also sincerely wants to win over people and use them for his own use, rather than letting them become more and more enmity with himself.

"But your temper is really unpleasant. If you change, I will not treat you with this attitude today."

A hint of coldness flashed in King Duan's eyes, but his face did not change at all.

"I did something wrong today. I apologize to you and hope you can forgive me."

He apologized, but his attitude was still arrogant, and his condescending attitude had never been tempered.

Chen Changli knew that the reason why he apologized to him was because he had put himself in his eyes this time and no longer regarded himself as a person who could be destroyed at any time like before.

"Your Highness, Prince Duan, you're welcome." Chen Changli knew why Prince Duan was acting like this, and there was no trace of emotion on his face.

He wouldn't say a word to let King Duan get any loopholes from him.

Seeing that his expression was very calm and he was not shocked at all by his words, King Duan was not angry and directly asked someone to prepare some good things.

He gave these good things to Chen Changli as an apology and sent him away personally.

Chen Changli originally didn't want to accept the apology from King Duan, but he thought that if he didn't accept it, King Duan might directly turn against him.

He could only put his things away and leave Prince Duan's Mansion.

As soon as he left, King Duan called his staff over, told them what happened today, and then said with a wry smile: "I have always thought that Chen Changli was a fool. It was a complete luck that he became a general. Now it seems that He himself is also capable."

After saying this, the murderous intent in King Duan's eyes was very fierce, as if he could no longer control his murderous intent towards Chen Changli.

The staff knew what King Duan meant, but it was simply that Chen Changli had exceeded his expectations, making it impossible for him to use his identity to threaten Chen Changli.

Thinking that King Duan was eager to use the affairs of the southwest to gain military power in his own hands, the staff said: "Since there is no way to win over him, why not directly persuade His Majesty?"
