Upon hearing this, everyone in the Wang family exchanged glances instinctively.
It's not that I'm worried about Wang Guangchen being humiliated. Things are already like this, one more person won't make a difference. As long as we can escape this crisis and survive, it doesn't matter if a few people die.
I was worried that he wouldn't be able to control his emotions.
They didn't care anymore; whether they knelt or were scolded, they could just endure it and it would pass.
Wang Guangchen is no good. He came back from the battlefield and has a strange personality. If he angers Chu Jinjin and goes back on his word to the Emperor, his whole family will be doomed.
This was exactly the effect Chu Jinjin wanted. She said calmly, "Does he want to kill me?"
Everyone shuddered slightly.
Hearing about it is one thing, but it's always hard to connect Chu Jinjin with the rumors. Unlike Wang Guangchen, whose murderous aura and physique are frightening to look at.
Chu Jinjin has thin arms and legs, and looks frail and delicate; she doesn't resemble that at all.
But the tone of those words was somewhat like Wang Guangchen's, which sent chills down one's spine.
They then remembered.
Chu Jinjin defeated 30,000 northern troops.
He seems to be even more capable than Wang Guangchen.
"I'll go call him right now." Wang Heng gritted his teeth: "Guangchen just returned from the battlefield not long ago. He's not very good at speaking and has a short temper. Please forgive him if he does anything wrong."
Chu Jinjin glanced at him: "Why should I be lenient?"
Wang Heng: "..."
Chu Jinjin glanced discreetly in a certain direction and said calmly, "Wang Heng, to be honest, we have a deep-seated hatred between us. Given the current situation, I really don't trust your Wang family, especially Wang Guangchen."
Wang Heng quickly lowered his head: "Don't worry, the Wang family has no other intentions."
Chu Jinjin's gaze suddenly turned icy: "What if I wanted Wang Guangchen dead?"
The air was almost deathly still.
Wang Heng's forehead was covered in sweat: "This, how can you say that? If you are really worried, I will report to the Emperor tomorrow and have him banished from the family, so that he will be far away from the capital and never be able to return."
He felt that he had underestimated Chu Jinjin.
Not only is he highly skilled in martial arts, but he is also a master strategist.
Before the killing even happens, we must nip it in the bud.
"Guangchen greets Miss Chu."
Wang Guangchen strode out from next door and bowed to Chu Jinjin with neither arrogance nor servility.
Chu Jinjin narrowed her eyes, her muscles tensing subconsciously.
He's definitely a formidable person.
Wang Guangchen is only a little over 1.7 meters tall, with dark skin and a very muscular build. Especially when he clasps his fists together, you can clearly see the neat rows of fist peaks.
The force of a punch is like the calluses on the palm; it's the result of countless punches, honed one by one.
Wang Guangchen was also sizing up Chu Jinjin.
True masters can grasp the basics without even engaging in combat.
Wang Guangchen actually harbored murderous intent.
He was not valued from a young age, and even when he went to the frontier, he did not receive any special treatment because of his royal family background.
Anyone with eyes can see that he is a pawn of the Wang family, here to act like an emperor in front of the world. Unless a huge accident happens, he will never be able to go back in this lifetime.
Not being able to go back means there's no future.
From an ordinary soldier to a general, only Wang Guangchen knew how difficult the journey was, with every step accompanied by sweat, tears, and blood.
All these efforts and humiliations made him deeply understand that he needed to reach a higher position.
He had already made a decision about how to deal with Chu Jinjin.
On the one hand, he secretly sent his former assassins to help.
He wasn't worried about not being able to kill Chu Jinjin; the difficulty lay in not having a suitable opportunity.
He only has one chance to make a move.
On the other hand, he planned to have someone follow Chu Jinjin, and the moment she left the capital would be the time to make his move.
To everyone's surprise, Chu Jinjin dared to come to the Wang family alone. Wasn't she just courting death?
He could kill her, find a reason to report to the Emperor, and perhaps the Emperor would blame him. He knew the Emperor wouldn't do that unless he abandoned the empire.
But now he knows that Chu Jinjin has the ability to do so.
Chu Jinjin smiled: "Let's get started."
She could feel the murderous aura emanating from next door as soon as she entered.
Wang Guangchen looked at Chu Jinjin, his clenched fist slowly loosened, and he finally gave up the idea.
"What are you standing there for? Kneel down!" Wang Heng frantically gestured with his eyes, no longer caring about his father's feelings, and roared, "Don't you even listen to your father anymore?"
Wang Guangchen didn't even glance at him, still staring at Chu Jinjin, and said in a low voice, "You can't kill me."
Chu Jinjin readily nodded: "That's right, you can't kill me either."
She realized that Wang Guangchen was just like her; he would kill without hesitation. If they were to fight, neither of them could gain the upper hand in a short time, and she was indeed not confident that she could defeat him.
Wang Guangchen was more capable than anyone she had ever met, including Jie Du.
Chu Jinjin was glad she came tonight.
With such a person around, how could she dare to leave the capital?
Chu Jinjin slowly stood up, stretched her limbs, and said calmly, "I can't kill you, but the Emperor can."
I can't sleep soundly until this person is eliminated.
With her family's safety always her top priority, Chu Jinjin couldn't care less about anything else. Anyway, she had leverage over the Wang family, and Xiao Huai's so-called deep affection that made people very uncomfortable. With both of these combined, killing half of the Wang family wouldn't be a problem, even if she couldn't wipe them out completely.
As for what to do next, we'll talk about that later.
Everyone in the room turned pale with fright.
Wang Heng's voice changed: "Miss Chu, Master, please, please don't be angry. This wretched child is just like that. I will immediately go to the palace to see the Emperor and exile him far away. I guarantee he will never appear before you again in this lifetime."
Chu Jinjin shook her head.
What is exile? For people like them, they can survive even the harshest environments.
Wang Guangchen said in a low voice, "Chu Jinjin, what exactly do you want?"
He understood Chu Jinjin's thoughts better than anyone else.
Pleasant words are useless; it's better to speak frankly and openly.
Chu Jinjin sighed: "I said, I just want a peaceful life, and don't bother me with any trouble, do you believe me?"
Wang Guangchen was stunned for a moment before asking, "You don't want to be the empress?"
Everyone has something to gain, whether it's power or money.
Chu Jinjin didn't want to explain anymore; they were the same kind of people, yet not the same kind.
Just then, a loud crash came from outside, like the house had collapsed.
A servant rushed in, not caring about the situation inside, and shouted, "Master, Madam, something terrible has happened! Someone has come to the door!"
Even Chu Jinjin thought she had misheard.
Someone came to our door?
This is the home of the Imperial Concubine, and also the residence of a General of the Cavalry. Who would dare to come here and attack someone?
The servant gestured and said, "A woman, so tall and strong, flew into the sky before the guards could even get close. Oh, and there was another woman with her, but she didn't make a move. Master, you'd better go and take a look, we can't stop her."
Chu Jinjin: "......."
Such an extraordinary woman, besides Li Dahua, there is no other like her in the world.
