Considering that His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu was already furious at this moment, Zhang Zhenxuan and the others, as retainers, would naturally not continue to sing against the head of the family at this time, so the three of them naturally nodded to show that they understood.

Of course, no one took this matter seriously. After all, the most important thing at the moment was a situation of "harmony between the monarch and his subjects."

Closer to home.

After ending this sudden storm, His Royal Highness the King of Chu brought his trusted retainers to his "King of Chu Camp" - the Honglu Temple, which was always loyal to him.

"What's wrong with you guys? Didn't you sleep well last night? Why are you all so listless?! How can this be so ridiculous?!" As soon as the King of Chu arrived at the Honglu Temple, he began to tidy up the guards at the gate: "Hurry up and cheer up for me! This is the Honglu Temple, the gathering hall of our Tang Dynasty! Those envoys outside who come to pay homage to the mountain... No, no, envoys from various countries who come to pay tribute, will see you so lazy, I'm afraid they will laugh at our Tang Dynasty behind your back?!"

"Your Highness...Your Highness...We know our crimes! We hope Your Highness will forgive us!" When the guards saw His Highness the King of Chu getting angry, they immediately knelt on the ground and admitted their mistakes.

“Stand up, stand up!” The King of Chu looked at the guards kneeling on the ground and shook his head helplessly: “It’s all because of that old man Tang Jian who is useless. Such a big Honglu Temple has become like this under his rule…”

"Your Highness, let's go in first." When Wang Xuance saw that His Highness the King of Chu started to nag Tang Jian again, he knew that the matter was over.

"Well," His Royal Highness the King of Chu responded to every word Wang Xuance said, "Speaking of which, I also want to meet Quan Gai Suwen, who is now without little Gugu. Is she as beautiful as a flower, with the breeze brushing her willow waist~~"

“Your Highness, you don’t like that, do you?” Yuan Tiangang waved at the guards, signaling them to stand up and return to their original positions. At the same time, he took the initiative to sound the alarm for the King of Chu: “Your Highness, you are the favorite of countless noble ladies in our Tang Dynasty. We can’t narrow the road…”

"..." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu suddenly discovered that Yuan Tiangang's speech... was sometimes not only abstract, but also very artistic!

"Ahem..." Zhang Zhenxuan, who was standing by, also understood Yuan Tiangang's double meaning. He immediately rubbed his neck and looked at Taoist Yuan with awe: "Fellow Taoist Yuan, I just realized today that talking and communicating with others is actually a very advanced practice... Elegant! It's really too elegant!"

"I really can't let you two be together..." His Royal Highness the King of Chu had endured too much torture from his retainers today: "I will send you two to the frontier, one to the north, and the other to the south..."

"Your Highness probably can't bear to do so." Yuan Tiangang laughed when he heard that and didn't take it to heart at all.

“Hehehe…” His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu just hummed a few times upon hearing this and ultimately didn’t say anything else.

A moment later, in the Honglu Temple, it was still the same small courtyard and the same stone table.

At this moment, His Royal Highness the King of Chu, who was the first to sit down after entering the courtyard, finally saw Quan Gaisu Wen, who was able to get out of bed and move around after a period of rest.

"Tell me, what do you think?" His Royal Highness the King of Chu sat in front of the stone table, looking at Quan Gai Su Wen standing in front of him, and said with a smile: "Brother Su Wen, you must hate me very much now, right?"

"I dare not." Facing the ridicule of His Royal Highness the King of Chu, Quan Gaisuwen's expression was calm: "I have brought this upon myself. It is a blessing from heaven that Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Your Royal Highness the King of Chu can spare my life. I naturally should not ask for anything else." After Quan Gaisuwen said this, he prepared to find a seat in front of His Royal Highness the King of Chu and sit down.

"Stand there." When His Royal Highness the King of Chu saw Quan Gaisuwen doing this, he immediately stopped his behavior with a calm expression.

Are you kidding? My retainers are all standing beside me, why do you think you can sit here?

"..." Quan Gaisuwen had never expected that the King of Chu, who had taken the initiative to talk with him here a few years ago and was a "hero", was now...

Not only did the other party ruin me, but he didn't even feel the slightest bit of guilt afterwards, and he wasn't even willing to give me the most basic respect.

"You lost face yourself," His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu didn't even need to guess, he could clearly know what Quan Gaisuwen was thinking at the moment: "For example, you. Of course, the so-called face is also earned by yourself, such as me." His Royal Highness the Prince of Chu said this, and suddenly smiled at Quan Gaisuwen: "No one was optimistic about me at the beginning, but I was the most competitive. In the Northwest War, Jinshan Sacrifice, when you, Quan Gaisuwen, were fishing in the north, I had already realized my original bold words and let the world see what a young hero is.

But what about you?

Quan Gaisu Wen, I have treated you very well!

Those dozen boxes of colored glaze, plus a set of prince's crown and robes, were the parting gifts I gave you at that time.

But what about you? You accepted my gift but didn't even give me a gift in return.

Of course, these are not important. I am not the kind of person who likes to quibble with others.

But Quan Gaisuwen, can you tell me why you went to the grassland alone after I destroyed the Eastern Turks and tried to unite the eighteen tribes of the grassland to launch a counterattack against the Tang Dynasty?"

His Royal Highness the King of Chu's words left Quan Gaisuwen silent for a long time.

But even if he remained silent, Quan Gaisuwen could still feel the murderous intent from the person opposite him.

This murderous intent... does not only come from the King of Chu.

"Your Highness the King of Chu, I..." Although Quan Gaisuwen had long known that today's meeting with the King of Chu was a matter of life and death, it was not until he really began to experience it all personally that he finally realized that the young man in front of him no longer needed to flatter him in order to achieve his goals as he had done in the past.

——The King of Chu in front of him was not the King of Chu of the past. Quan Gai Su Wen looked at him and couldn't help feeling sad.

"What are you talking about? Go on!" His Royal Highness the King of Chu waited for a long time and found that Quan Gaisuwen had no more words to say and even had the courage to look him in the face. He immediately became furious: "Quan Gaisuwen, my patience is limited!"

"Your Highness the King of Chu, what happened in the past... was Su Wen's fault, but now, Su Wen has realized how outrageous his mistake was, so Su Wen wants to make amends. Please, Your Highness the King of Chu, give me a chance!" After Quan Gai Su Wen said this, he immediately bowed to Li Kuan and performed a great salute.

At this moment, His Royal Highness the King of Chu, looking at Quan Gaisu Wen kneeling before him, suddenly thought of King Gou Jian of Yue and the famous eunuch in history who called a deer a horse.

Hmm...Quan Gaisuwen...Could it be that you also feel that you have been bullied too much in the Tang Dynasty, so you also plan to follow their example, first endure humiliation, and then after returning to Goguryeo, carefully plan and take every step carefully, step by step to the highest point? Then come and take revenge on me?

Hmm... You can actually combine these two allusions in this way...

In this case... I have to say, this matter... is really interesting!

(My dear friends, I have not had a day off for a month. Today is a day off, so I will update once more...)
