Xiao Jingyun didn't know that Xiao Cunyu had been assassinated, and he had no idea what King Yue had done behind the scenes, so when he talked about King Yue at this time, he felt a little regretful.
"Although the King of Yue is not favored, he is a prince after all. He is not someone you and I can offend easily. If you meet him in the future, you must not offend him." Xiao Jingyun couldn't help but worry when he thought of the entanglement between Xiao Cunyu and the King of Lu in the past.
His younger brother is a man who has no respect for seniority and does not distinguish between superiors and inferiors. He always acts at ease in front of the crown prince, let alone the other princes.
Fortunately, the Xiao family has a good reputation among officials and is valued by the emperor. It is not a big deal if the seventh brother makes a small mistake in his words. At most, he will be ordered to reflect on it, and he will not lose his life.
"Don't worry, big brother. I won't easily bring disaster to my family." Xiao Cunyu responded naturally.
But Xiao Jingyun always felt something was wrong when he heard this.
I looked at him scrutinizingly, and the more I thought about it, the stranger it seemed.
"Have you offended the King of Yue?" Xiao Jingyun asked tentatively.
Xiao Cunyu nodded without a second thought. "Yeah, it's because I'm your brother, so talented! Look at me, I radiate talent from head to toe. I'm obviously a talented person! The King of Yue knew he couldn't recruit me, so he turned his love into hatred and wanted to crush me in the cradle!"
With a "bang", Xiao Cunyu was hit on the head.
She covered her head with her hands and looked at her brother in disbelief: "I was just telling the truth, why did you hit me again?!"
"I'm going to hit you. You're talking nonsense all day long. You're a talented person." Xiao Jingyun sneered. "Tell me what happened. How did you offend the King of Yue? Did you steal the King of Yue's woman, or his things, or did you say something unpleasant that His Highness the King of Yue heard?"
Xiao Cunyu felt that he was being wronged.
He squatted on the ground: "Brother really hates me..."
“…” Xiao Jingyun got angry when he saw him pretending to be pitiful.
A real man, is there anything he can't say nicely? He just tapped him lightly. The fourth, fifth, and sixth brothers had been beaten by him countless times, but they had never been so pitiful!
Xiao Jingyun showed no mercy. He pressed his big hand on Xiao Cunyu's head, pushing the already small body down.
"Just speak. Why are you speaking so pretentiously? Are you an actor? If you confess honestly, can I beat you?" Xiao Jingyun felt that he was being very reasonable.
Is offending the King of Yue a small matter?!
Seventh brother, have you forgotten that the Xiao family is just a subject?
Xiao Cunyu lay on the ground, not feeling ashamed. After hearing his elder brother's words, he began to build up his emotions, and then said with red eyes: "You asked me how I offended the King of Yue. I don't think I did anything to offend the King of Yue, but since you asked, I have to come up with a reasonable explanation to answer you! Look, I told you but you didn't believe me and said I was talking nonsense!"
"I'm not the King of Yue, how can I know what he's thinking? I was digging for treasure yesterday, but he insisted on interfering and sent nearly twenty experts to assassinate Zhou Jingmao and me. Your brother's head was hanging on his belt! He almost died! And you're still so mean to me..."
After Xiao Cunyu finished speaking, he began to wipe away his tears.
"I might as well have died yesterday. Why did I come back? Big Brother not only refused to help me, but he even asked me if I had offended him! The last time I saw him was at the hunting grounds! Doesn't Big Brother know everything I said and did back then? Do you have the guts to ask the King of Yue what he thinks?! Do you think it's possible that he's not jealous of my prodigy?!"
