After listening, Canglong Hui revealed a look of disbelief on his face: "Did she really do that? Again?"
"Your Highness, this is what I witnessed with my own eyes. If you do not believe me, you can confront the guards who accompanied me."
Canglong Hui's personal guard, who was also the head of the guards in Radiant King Manor, noticed Canglong Hui's signal and spoke up: "Go call the other person over!"
"Yes! I will obey!"
Once the second person reiterated the facts and confirmed that the first guard was not lying, they finally believed the guard's words!
"This is unbelievable! How could it be like this? Has this Second Sister from Xia Manor been deceiving This King all along?"
The head guard also began to feel confused: "But Your Highness, even if this Second Sister deceived you, could she have deceived everyone in Xia Manor for so many years? When I inquired about Second Sister Xia Yuhan, I gathered information from various sources, and it cannot be false!"
"Then what exactly is going on? Can a woman really stir up such a big storm?"
"Your Highness, could it be that Xia Yuhan changed drastically after experiencing some shock?"
Canglong Hui seemed to find the head guard's statement reasonable and repeated it aloud: "Changed drastically? This King indeed feels that way. When This King saw her in person, I noticed that Xia Yuhan has become much more formidable than before!"
At this point, Canglong Hui seemed to think of something and suddenly kicked over the entire bookshelf in front of him, startling the three guards on the spot…
"Your Highness, Your Highness… have you thought of something unpleasant again?"
Canglong Hui's eyes were filled with rage: "Hmph! It's that detestable Jiang Tingyu! When This King needed him, he wouldn't come; now that there's nothing going on, he becomes a nuisance to This King. Does he have a grudge against This King? If it weren't for him stopping me, This King would have killed that Xia Yuhan who tarnished my reputation right then and there!"
The head guard was at a loss: "Your Highness, things may not be as you think. The Right Chancellor of Azure Dragon Kingdom—Jiang Tingyu—relies on his vast talents and is known for being elusive and not attending court regularly, yet he is favored by the Emperor. Perhaps he just happened to encounter you this time and coincidentally stepped in to resolve this matter."
"Hmph! Even if it was by chance, anyone who stops This King is against This King! I will never let them have a good ending!"
"Prince, you must remain calm. If you had insisted on killing Xia Yuhan back then, I'm afraid the consequences for you would be far worse than this..."
Then there was a loud bang as Canglong Hui's right fist slammed down on the wooden table: "Oh? So I should thank this Jiang Tingyu then?"
The Captain of the Guards took a deep breath: "Yes, Your Highness. It is imperative that you find the adulterer. At that time, Your Highness's reputation for 'governing the family well and being generous and benevolent' will double in the hearts of the people, and you will hold the initiative!"
"Alright, do as you say! You may leave!"
"Yes, it is my duty to obey. I hope Your Highness does not let anger harm your health. I will send someone to clean your study right away!"
...
Elsewhere. First update.
Cang Yile's temporary residence in a simple manor.
"Yo, Disciple, where have you been? Out picking flowers?"
Before Cang Yile could enter, he stumbled slightly upon hearing that distant "greeting."
Looking up, he saw his older master lounging in an armchair with a leisurely and mischievous smile, casually swinging his legs while wearing an eye-catching beggar's outfit he must have found somewhere...
Cang Yile never expected his master to follow him so quickly, so when he heard his master's "evil" voice, he was momentarily taken aback.
However, upon seeing the actual person in the room, he couldn't help but cover his face in exasperation and returned a mischievous smile: "Master, where did you come from? Did your rendezvous with Master's Wife fail and you got kicked out to sweep the streets?"
As soon as the old man heard "Master's Wife," he jumped up nervously from the armchair: "Don't call her that! And you, stinky Disciple, your mouth is getting more and more unruly!"
"Well... if I recall correctly, I don't think I've ever obediently listened to you, have I?"
The old man immediately jumped down from the lounge chair and quickly walked a couple of steps to Cang Yile: "You ungrateful Disciple! Without such a great master teaching you, how could you ever succeed?"
Cang Yile was not in the mood to engage with his master, so he casually replied, "Self-taught!" and attempted to leave!
Seeing that his disciple was ignoring him, the old man felt quite frustrated and chased after him: "Hey, hey! Don't go, Master misses you!"
If he had only heard the first half of that sentence, Cang Yile might have felt a bit moved. However, after hearing the second half, he decided he would pretend not to know this person in the future!
How infuriating!
Because his master—
"Disciple, Master misses you even more for picking flowers!"
That one word "more" had already driven Cang Yile to the brink of anger. Moreover, since he shouted so loudly, the newly assigned maids and eunuchs from the palace overheard and covered their mouths to stifle their laughter!
This was fine; it saved him from having to act charming to dispel Canglong Hui and the emperor's concerns about him!
But if this continued for too long, it would be absolutely unacceptable!
Sigh... How did he end up with such an "evil" master? He was simply ridiculous!
In this situation, Cang Yile turned around in anger and walked in the opposite direction of the old man, then without saying another word, left the residence granted to him by the emperor.
The old man chased after Cang Yile: "This rascal must be going somewhere! Otherwise, why would he be running away like that?"
The master and disciple were quite a sight—one walking away and the other chasing after him, creating a rather amusing scene...
Finally reaching a place where no one could follow him, Cang Yile stopped moving: "Why did you come here to cause trouble? Also, who told you we were here? I will definitely punish them severely later!"
The old man deliberately glared at Cang Yile, "Of course it's your Wife!"
Cang Yile sneered, "If Master makes this kind of joke again next time, I will tell Master's Wife! Master is out there picking flowers with Disciple!"
The old man quickly shut up, "No, no, I won't do it next time! But where exactly did you go to pick flowers?"
In this situation, guess how our charming Cang Yile would respond?
Without thinking, he bluntly threw two words at the old man: "Xia Manor!"
"Oh ho, your appetite is quite big! I could tell Disciple was agitated today, so I knew something must be up!"
The old man's casual remark struck a chord with Cang Yile. Was he agitated today?
He was clearly just going to Xia Manor to gather information; how could he be agitated?
It should be known that agitation had never been related to him! No wonder the old man insisted on chasing after him for a clear answer today...
