"Third Prince! Please be careful with your words!" Feng Yuxuan immediately interrupted Chu Zhixu nervously, his palms wet with sweat.

How dare he? How dare he!

Those rumors were just rumors, but if he spoke them directly in front of his father, had he ever thought about how he would deal with it? !

Just because of myself...

He is my own uncle!

Feng Yuxuan never dreamed that Chu Zhixu would dare to harm him like this in front of all the court officials and in front of his father, the Northern Phoenix Emperor! !

A hint of anger flashed across Feng Yuxuan's face, but when he looked at Chu Zhixu, his eyes were filled with panic and pleading...

Chu Zhixu leisurely put a grape into his mouth, then raised his eyes and glanced at Feng Yuxuan. The look was a little complicated, but thinking of what that person said, Chu Zhixu withdrew his gaze expressionlessly.

"Don't worry, my good nephew." Chu Zhixu smiled. "I am just telling Bei Fenghuang about the interesting things I heard from the people. I believe that Bei Fenghuang, as the ruler of a country, will also worry about the people and think about what the people think..."

"Your Majesty, do you agree or not?!" Chu Zhixu looked straight into Feng Qixin's cold eyes.

He knew that from the moment he mentioned his sister, there was no turning back!

Since Beifeng Country can no longer get involved... Fortunately, I have already made arrangements in Nanchu. As long as...

Suddenly, Grand Tutor Ji Changze sneered, "The Third Prince of Chu is really interesting. As soon as he arrived in Beifeng, he began to care about the national conditions of Beifeng on behalf of His Majesty..."

"We, the ministers, are not as good as a prince from another country... Tsk, thank you so much, Third Prince!"

Ji Changze was almost saying that Chu Zhixu was a person from another country, and it was already overstepping his authority to pay so much attention to the affairs of Beifeng Country.

Yu Xiangchun rolled his eyes in his heart. If the Fourth Prince hadn't said that he had already made arrangements, Yu Xiangchun would have almost been unable to hold back and cursed at Ji Changze, a spy from another country, for daring to infiltrate the court of Beifeng Kingdom.

Chu Zhixu exchanged a glance with the Fourth Prince Feng Chengyin without leaving a trace, and when he saw the other party nod slightly, he continued speaking slowly.

"Grandmaster Ji is too eager to put the blame on me. Although I am here as a guest of Beifeng Country, I am also speaking to the Emperor of Beifeng to raise the concerns of the people in order to maintain friendly relations between the two countries..."

"Tsk tsk, Grand Tutor Ji interrupted me so harshly, could it be that those rumors are true?!"

Looking at the ugly face of his old friend, Chu Zhixu didn't want to do anything so drastic.

But who are they plotting against?

One is his biological sister, and the other is his good friend who could once trust each other with life and death. Chu Zhixu feels no better than Ji Changze.

Ji Changze was panicking in his heart but didn't show it on his face. He narrowed his eyes slightly and shot his gaze straight at Chu Zhixu like a cold sword, "Third Prince, this is my Beifeng Kingdom, not your Nanchu Kingdom!"

"You are trying to sow discord between this Grand Master and His Majesty!"

Chu Zhixu smiled indifferently and said sarcastically: "Grand Master, do you know what it means to be so deceitful? Hahahahaha."

"You!" Ji Changze had a layer of cold sweat on his back. He tightly grasped the wine glass in his hand, but for a moment he couldn't find the words to refute.

He was indeed too eager!

What a miscalculation!

Ji Changze stared at Chu Zhixu with a gloomy face and a knife in his eyes. He felt that Chu Zhixu wanted to kill him!

Feng Qixin had been sitting at the top, taking in everyone's expressions without making a sound. The reason why he did not interrupt the verbal sparring between Grand Tutor Ji and the Third Prince of Chu was that he sensed an indescribable feeling between the two.

The old Marquis of Dingyuan Marquis's Mansion said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you are a guest here, so you probably won't believe those unfounded folk rumors..."

"However, I would like to know what the Third Prince has learned, and I need to tell His Majesty about it."

Marquis Wu'an, oh no, because Ji Furong had offended the emperor, the former Marquis Wu'an had been demoted to Earl Wu'an.

Wu'an Earl Ji Chou has always been at odds with the old marquis of Dingyuan Marquis Mansion. The two have been fighting for their entire lives, but they have always been evenly matched.

Unfortunately, the Wu'an Marquis' Mansion was downgraded to the Wu'an Earl's Mansion because of its incompetent younger generation. Ji Chou was very upset.

Now that his old rival had spoken, Ji Chou couldn't help but sneer, "Haha, Lord Li, are you speaking for the Third Prince of Chu?!"

The old man is very evil. If the emperor really takes his words to heart, he will be harming the entire Dingyuan Marquis Mansion!

Old Lord Li was so angry at Ji Chou, the petty-minded old man, that his beard stood up. His eldest son, Minister of War Li Bohan, was the first to speak up on his father's behalf.

Li Bohan said in a serious tone, "Master Ji, be careful with your words! Your Majesty has seen my father's loyalty. Although you have been competing with my father for a lifetime, you should never say such words that would disappoint my father!"

"Hmph! I was only telling the truth." Ji Chou knew that what he had said just now was a bit too much, but he couldn't bring himself to do it.

Li Bohan replied with cold eyes: "Oh, what a truthful statement! My Li family is full of loyal and brave people, but there has never been a person like the daughter of the Ji family who dares to scold His Majesty!"

Ji Chou's face turned red from choking, but he couldn't utter a word.

He glanced at his son Ji Liezhou who was standing beside him without saying a word, and got even angrier!

It was all because of this unfilial granddaughter born to this unfilial son. Ji Chou wished he could go back home and beat Ji Furong up again.

He turned a good Marquis's Mansion into a Earl's Mansion. What sin did he commit...

Yu Menghua was trying hard to hold back her laughter. She had to admit, Uncle Li really knew how to stab people in the heart, hahaha.

She never knew that the quarrels among these ministers could be so interesting.

Ji Chou really regretted his decision. Why did he say that much? As a result, he was almost choked to death by his old rival's son.

What’s even more infuriating is that my own son is like a mute. Other people’s sons stand up for their fathers, but my own son is just a dumb boy!

Chu Zhixu narrowed his eyes and suddenly found the court of Beifeng Kingdom very interesting...

However, some things still need to be done!

“Ahem!” Chu Zhixu coughed lightly and said quietly, “Of course, I am not making this statement without any purpose, nor am I acting on behalf of His Majesty the Northern Phoenix. It’s just that those rumors are related to my deceased sister, so I have to tell you…”

"Chu Zhixu!" The veins on Ji Changze's forehead were throbbing, and he shouted with gritted teeth.

Chu Zhixu raised the corner of his lips sarcastically, "Ji Changze! I still have a debt to settle with you, don't worry!"

Feng Qixin glanced at everyone coldly and suddenly laughed, "Third Prince, I want to see the 'gift' you brought for me."
