"Your Highness, you are pragmatic..." Du Ruhui, who was just full of emotion, was completely cooled down by His Highness the Prince of Chu's standard "anti-traitor-style speech".

At this moment, Du Ruhui had a complex expression on his face, and his eyes looking at His Royal Highness the King of Chu were full of meaning: "Your Highness... I know you don't treat me as an outsider... But... you can actually treat me as an outsider..."

"What are you talking about?! What are you talking about!? Uncle Du, what are you talking about?" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu curled his lips when he heard this: "We are so close that we can almost wear the same pants..."

"..." Du Ruhui didn't expect that the "pants boomerang" in the Taiji Hall would come so quickly: "Your Highness, did you say anything to Wei Zheng in private..."

“The king and Wei Zheng?” His Royal Highness the King of Chu pointed at himself and said in disbelief, “Privately? No… Uncle Du, please don’t get mad all of a sudden. I’m telling you, if Duke Wei meets the king in private… Hey… I’ll do this first… then this… and finally this!”

As he spoke, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu looked extremely excited. He gestured to Du Ruhui with his hands the "unparalleled martial arts" he had been conceiving for many years - "A Kuan Eighteen Styles", and continued to grit his teeth and said: "If I don't beat him to the point where he drools after being cured, I will be sorry for all the beatings I have suffered because of him, as my father chased me around the pillars of the Taiji Hall!

Uncle Du, how do you think I got the graceful and elegant 'Dragon Movement'?! That's a boy's skill, you know?! A boy's skill!"

"This... the matter of 'virgin skills'... I really don't know..." After listening to the tearful accusation of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Du Ruhui tried hard to blink his eyes, and secretly tried hard to recall the things in his life that made him sad...

After a long while, Du Ruhui finally calmed down. He pursed his lips and started to talk to His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu about business: "Your Highness the Prince of Chu, if you want Feng Ang to accept your arrangement, then should you have a heart-to-heart talk with him?"

"Uncle Du," Li Kuan laughed when he heard Du Ruhui's suggestion. "Ha... It's useless to talk nicely to a man like Feng Ang. This old rogue should either be made to 'sleep' or to obey. A good and virtuous king like me who is pure and innocent and doesn't do anything about sex, of course I will choose to 'sleep'... Pah! Of course I will choose to make him obey!"

"Your Highness, are you planning to intimidate us?" Although Du Ruhui had only a vague understanding of some of the terms in His Highness the Prince of Chu's words, this did not prevent him from connecting the other party's words in his mind and guessing the general content.

I have to say, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is more like a gangster...

"Uncle Du, did you think I was just joking when I dismantled your carriage last time to play the game of 'speed is the essence of war'?" Li Kuan's face turned stern when he heard that, and then his whole body suddenly exuded a terrifying aura of majesty without even being angry: "I want the whole world to know that I am not sending troops today because I am just too lazy to do so!

If anyone is so blind as to anger me, even if he flees to the ends of the earth, I will still kill him with my own hands and let him go to hell with regret and despair!"

"So similar..." Du Ruhui looked at the Prince of Chu who suddenly became serious. He suddenly realized that the tall figure of the young man seemed to be quietly overlapping with the young and tall figure in his memory: "Your Highness the Prince of Chu...you are so similar to His Majesty..."

"Uncle Du, although I know you are not my retainer." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu is a tough guy who sometimes can't tell the difference between sincere praise and ridicule: "But at least you should take care of my mood. When I am happy, please don't mention things that will make me upset!

Who wants to be like him! When he was a child, he was given the title of "Longyou Qilin"?! Humph, the two biggest troubles in Taiyuan City..."

Du Ruhui listened to the "big boss of Chang'an" slandering His Majesty Li Er in front of him, so he could only bite the bullet and say something fair: "Ahem... Your Majesty, at least in Taiyuan, His Majesty had the Duke of Zhao who was as famous as him, but now in Chang'an City..."

Your Highness, the King of Chu, you are recognized by everyone as the greatest, so...

"Awful fellow..." This time, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu understood Du Ruhui's sarcasm, so he immediately realized that he had really given his true heart to the wrong person. In Du Ruhui's heart, Mingyue was still His Majesty Li II, and he, the Prince of Chu... was obviously a ditch...

Alas... Lord Du, aren't you hurting me too much by doing this?

"Your Highness, since you have already made up your mind, I will not say any more." Du Ruhui found that the eyes of His Royal Highness the King of Chu were somewhat obscure at this moment. How to put it - hesitant but also eager to try, eager to try but also a little excited and afraid...

Du Ruhui was not Wei Zheng... Besides, he had just recovered from a serious illness, so Du Ruhui knew that it was time for him to leave: "By the way, is there anything else you want me to do? If not, I will take my leave now."

"Uncle Du..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu discovered that in the Tiance Mansion, apart from his uncle Dou, Master Yu and Master Xiao, the rest... there really wasn't a single good person, and each of them was slippery and hard to control: "Could you please not be so polite to me at this time? It's as if I'm going to take the opportunity to pick a fight with you..."

"Your Highness, did you say before that you wanted to remove the wheels of Wei Zheng's carriage?" Faced with a difficult question, Du Ruhui's response was simple - abandon his two sons in exchange for himself as an old father to escape unscathed: "If you have made up your mind, I can't persuade you anymore, but I think that your original intention of doing this was for me, so I am quite moved..."

"Uncle Du, stop, stop, stop... I... Bah! I don't want to hear your beating around the bush!" His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu found that this scholar was really bad. He was overwhelmed by his repetitive words: "Just tell me what you are going to do?!"

"Your Highness, when you unload the wheels, you can call my two sons." Du Ruhui stroked his beard habitually when he smiled, which made him look more like a cunning old fox. "Du Gou is strong and steady, Du He has good eyesight and runs fast. One of them will be responsible for guarding and the other will be responsible for helping you. What do you think?"

"Wow..." Upon hearing this, His Royal Highness the King of Chu immediately forgot that he was still angry with Du Ruhui, and began to point fingers at this wise minister of the Zhenguan period from a moral high ground: "Uncle Du... How can people's hearts be so twisted! They are your own flesh and blood! Aren't you afraid that the two brothers will be caught by the Duke of Wei——"

"You are here, Your Highness the Prince of Chu." Du Ruhui said, bowing to Li Kuan. "I believe that Your Highness the Prince of Chu, as a kind-hearted person who 'happened' to pass by and knew nothing about it, would definitely not want to see two young men who accidentally did something wrong get beaten up by the Duke of Wei. Aren't you always good at 'mediating fights'?"

Wow, Du Ruhui's simple words directly planned a simple and reasonable "fight" event in advance.

“Lord Du,” His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu felt that he still lacked respect for the pillars of the Tiance Mansion: “Please don’t mind the nonsense I just said. I was really just joking…”

"Did Your Highness say anything? I was only discussing with Your Highness how to appease the envoys of various countries..." How could Du Ruhui not see through His Highness the King's little thoughts - this little bastard was deliberately showing weakness to the enemy.

If he showed any arrogance, this master would turn around and ask his retainers for advice.

Even if he is Du Ruhui, now facing the ladder handed over by His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu, he must learn to stop while he is ahead.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have gained anything good.

As for the reason, it's obvious.

——Although there are countless brave generals among the retainers of His Majesty the King of Chu, the one who can really attract the attention and fear of the bigwigs in the court is the young man named Wang Xuance.
