Chapter 491

"Report!"

"The Chu Kingdom envoy group has arrived outside the palace and is waiting for Your Majesty's summons!"

Once these words were spoken.

Although there was still silence in the Jin Luandian, the atmosphere seemed to have changed instantly.

A visible murderous aura swept through the entire hall.

Wang Zhong's gaze suddenly turned toward Gao Yang.

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes were cold.

She looked down at the officials from above and said coldly, "Summon them!"

Along the way, her eyes also looked in the direction of Gao Yang.

Although Gao Yang had told her in advance, she was still a bit worried in her heart.

Can that 'Tang Shisanbai' work?

To this, Gao Yang only returned a reassuring look.

Although he had full confidence in the 'Tang Shisanbai', he had always been cautious, and Wu Zhao had said that Zhou Zifu was not only famous in the Chu Kingdom but also hailed as a poetry saint across the seven kingdoms!

He naturally wouldn't be careless.

Plus, being designed by the Chu Kingdom envoy group made him very angry, so he went to find Chu Qingluan that night.

Chu Qingluan was originally very tough, but when he set out some torture instruments and added his big name, she became obedient instantly.

Sometimes, a bad reputation is far more useful than a good one.

When someone like Yan Zheng says he will use cruel torture, it really has no deterrent power, but just by standing there without saying a word, the prisoner couldn't help but tremble.

This is reputation!

Although she didn't confess everything, at least he gained some understanding.

For example, Master Zhou's masterpiece.

Soon.

The Great Chu Eldest Princess strode into the Jin Luandian.

"Chu Ningyu, by the order of the Chu Emperor, pays respects to the Qian Emperor to discuss the peace talks!"

A voice suddenly cut through the Jin Luandian.

Chu Ningyu's eyes were cold, and her whole body exuded a rich aura that made people dare not look directly at her.

Behind her were a group of old men and officials from the Chu Kingdom envoy group.

With Chu Ningyu's appearance, the eyes of all the officials in the Jin Luandian focused on her.

Their gazes were filled with amazement and scrutiny.

Wu Zhao said indifferently, "The Great Chu envoy group arrived faster than I imagined."

Chu Ningyu smiled and said, "Your Majesty's divine power is manifest. As a defeated general, I naturally had to hurry to Changancheng to admire Your Majesty's divine power."

"Seeing Your Majesty today, you are indeed extraordinary. Our Great Chu's defeat in this battle was not unjust."

When these words fell, the Great Qian officials felt refreshed, and some even showed looks of pride.

But Wu Zhao's eyes were cold, and her vigilance was raised to the maximum.

According to her intelligence, the whole of Great Chu was clearly filled with indignation, and this Chu Ningyu had come prepared.

This attitude was very wrong.

This could only mean one thing: Chu Ningyu was about to make trouble.

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes were cold, and she said indifferently, "Eldest Princess, you flatter me. Compared to such a great victory, I would rather this had never happened."

"However, since it has happened, there is no point in saying more. Eldest Princess, go and rest well; I will order people to start peace talks with Great Chu again."

At the same time, she looked at Song Li and said, "Treat the Eldest Princess well; do not lose etiquette."

But Chu Ningyu said directly, "Your Majesty, wait a moment."

"Actually, I have an uninvited request on this trip."

As Chu Ningyu spoke, her gaze looked around the hall and finally settled on Gao Yang, who was standing at the very front.

Although they had never met, Chu Ningyu's intuition told her that this person was the culprit who was resourceful and even threatened to humiliate her sister!

The Great Qian Living Yama!

Following these words, Wang Zhong, Song Li, Cui Xinghe, and others suddenly looked at Chu Ningyu; they knew clearly.

The Chu Kingdom envoy group's trouble-making had arrived!

Gao Yang's gaze was calm.

He looked at Chu Ningyu, their eyes met, and the fire in Chu Ningyu's heart surged.

This person was full of bad water just by looking at him!

But she forcibly suppressed it and turned her gaze to the high-and-mighty Wu Zhao.

She asked word by word, "I wonder if Your Majesty can agree?"

The Chu Kingdom envoy group's attitude was so humble; if she kept blocking them, it would be beneath her.

Thinking of this, Wu Zhao said coldly, "What is the Eldest Princess's request?"

Chu Ningyu looked at Zhou Zifu behind her, bowed slightly, and stepped aside.

"Master Zhou, the Great Qian Emperor has always been fair, and being located in the Central Plains, you have a thousand years of culture and have given birth to countless stunningly talented scholars!"

"Just say it; I believe the Qian Emperor will surely be fair and uphold justice for you in front of everyone."

Chu Ningyu raised her chin slightly, her voice cold.

Master Zhou stepped forward, his thin back straight.

With Master Zhou standing out, it instantly caused a storm in the Jin Luandian.

"Hiss!"

"Master Zhou, one of the top scholars of the seven kingdoms, hailed as the Chu Kingdom's poetry saint!"

"He encountered an injustice and wants our Great Qian Emperor to uphold justice?"

"What's going on?"

"I heard the rumors in Changancheng these past two days; could it be the Living Yama..."

Accompanied by noisy discussions, Master Zhou stood out.

He slowly looked at Gao Yang, his eyes aged and deep.

Sorry, young man!

Once I speak, you won't even have room to argue!

But before he could speak, Gao Yang bowed first and said, "Your Majesty, I have a matter, and I ask Your Majesty to uphold justice for me!"

Wu Zhao's eyes moved, and she said softly, "Minister Gao, what matter do you want me to uphold justice for?"

Gao Yang pointed at Master Zhou, full of grief and indignation.

"This Great Chu poetry saint appears righteous, but is actually a shameless villain and a petty person!"

"His masterpiece 'Climbing the River, Autumn Moon' is plagiarized from a work of mine from my early years!"

"Such behavior is simply shameless to the point of being outrageous. Today, I can no longer tolerate it and must expose this hypocrite's true face in public!"
