Unexpectedly, just two days after returning to the manor, he personally killed Xinru, watching helplessly as she bled to death before his very eyes.

All of this is thanks to them!

Today he will make them taste the excruciating pain of losing their loved ones!

Zhu Chen raised his sinister eyes, which met the gaze of "Zhu Yu" looking at him.

He quickly concealed the emotions in his eyes, raised his wine glass, and nodded slightly to Lu Xiaoyun.

Zhu Dan smiled faintly, picked up his wine glass and said, "Third Brother, I'd like to toast you."

Zhu Chen forced a smile, suppressing the murderous intent in his eyes: "I heard that Father has already instructed the Ministry of Rites to find a suitable wife for my fifth brother. A couple of days ago, Grandmother even specially selected noble ladies from various families. I suppose it won't be long before my third brother is drinking your wedding wine."

Zhu Dan glanced at Lu Xiaoyun and smiled, "No rush."

Zhu Chen saw Zhu Dan looking at the fourth prince and said, "That's right. There's no woman in the fourth prince's household. Why don't we have Father Emperor order the Ministry of Rites to select suitable wives for both of you? When the two princes get married together, it will be quite a spectacle in Shengjing City."

He picked up his wine glass and took a big gulp of wine.

By this time, it was getting dark, and guests began to leave one after another.

Zhu Chen calculated that it should be about time, and prepared to leave.

At this moment, the head guard beside Zhu Chen hurried over and whispered a few words in his ear. His face looked very bad and his steps were unsteady.

Zhu Chen was shocked upon hearing his words and looked at his chief guard in disbelief.

The head guard nodded slightly to him.

Zhu Chen's expression changed drastically, and he immediately left with his chief guard without saying goodbye.
