Everyone was startled and looked up at the man brandishing the sword. He said in a cold voice, "I won't attack the Chu family on the border, but I will attack you!"
Upon hearing this, the second elder of the Chu family trembled even more.
"My Lord..."
The second elder Chu turned his head in horror and looked at the head of the Chu family, as if he had received protection from the head of the Chu family.
The head of the Chu family did not focus his attention on the second elder Chu, but stared down at Rong Shuo from a high position, his old voice carrying a hint of solemnity, "Are you really Qiu Chi's son?"
The man was dressed in a black robe, holding the Emperor Sword in his hand, his brows and eyes were filled with a cold and murderous aura. Although he was standing in a lower position than the head of the Chu family, he had a powerful aura all over his body, as if he was born to be a superior.
He raised his eyes indifferently and met the gaze of the head of the Chu family.
Patriarch Chu was shocked and his expression changed slightly. Why did he feel that Rong Shuo's aura was even more powerful than some gods in the divine world? In his eyes, he seemed to be nothing.
"yes."
A deep voice came down like thunder, hitting everyone.
Rong Shuo said slowly, "Master Chu, there is no need to imprison them, because the person they are looking for is right here."
When Chu Qiuchi and Xiye Weirong heard this, they couldn't help but look at Rong Shuo.
The head of the Chu family looked a little gloomy. He had heard that the Five States Emperor Rong Shuo recognized Qiu Chi as his mother, but was unwilling to recognize him as his grandfather.
Come to think of it, he has no blood relationship with this 'grandson'.
At this point in his thoughts, his expression grew cold, and he said in a deep voice, "We can put this matter aside for now, but, Your Majesty, you disrupted the Chu family banquet today, severely injured our second elder, and threatened members of the Chu family in front of me. If you don't apologize to me face to face, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave Chu Family Island safely!"
Chu Qiuchi's expression changed slightly.
"Father! He's your grandson!"
When Patriarch Chu heard this, his face remained calm. He stared at Rong Shuo with deep and sharp eyes, silently waiting for his answer.
Xiye Weirong saluted the head of the Chu family with a firm expression, "My Lord, I am willing to apologize for Shuo'er!"
Chu Qiuchi glanced at Rong Shuo. Although she had just recognized her son, she could see that Shuo was cold and arrogant, and would definitely not apologize to his father easily.
Chu Qiuchi said, "Father, Shuo'er acted so presumptuously in front of you for our sake. I am willing to bear all the consequences for him!"
At this time, Chu Banxue, who was standing not far away, patted her clothes, then looked up at the head of the Chu family and said earnestly, "Father, isn't it good to have such a capable grandson? Why do you have to ruin our relationship? Second Elder Chu was seriously injured, and that's what he deserved!"
"Shut up!"
A stern shout came out from the mouth of Chu Zuohong, the eldest son of the Chu family. His face was pale at this moment, and his right hand was trembling slightly under his robe. He had no good feelings towards his two younger sisters, Chu Banxue and Chu Qiuchi.
One is the third sister who is unreasonable, angry at everything, pretentious and artificial, and often makes people embarrassed!
A fourth sister who lowered her status and made the Chu family a laughing stock!
Chu Zuohong scolded with a cold face: "When is it your turn to point fingers at my father when he does something?"
When Chu Banxue heard this, she pouted in grievance. She lifted the hem of her skirt and threw herself into Wanqi'er's arms in three or two steps.
"Husband, my elder brother is being mean to me again."
Wanqi'er's eyes were complicated. He raised his hands to embrace her and sighed softly.
Seeing this, Chu Zuohong calmed down a little. When he saw Yun Zheng, murderous intent emerged in his heart. He had just been caught by the wrist by this girl and his hand bones were almost crushed by her.
For a moment, it became quiet and the atmosphere became gloomy and depressing.
Many people present felt they could not breathe.
The head of the Chu family released his imposing aura of pressure, and his pair of cloudy old eyes stared at Rong Shuo as sharp as a blade.
When almost everyone thought that Rong Shuo was going to bow to the head of the Chu family, they heard him say the exact opposite.
"What crime have I committed?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in Shuiyun Palace instantly dropped to freezing point, and everyone felt that this would be the prelude to an impending storm.
"Okay! Then don't be so rude!"
The head of the Chu family laughed in anger. It had been a long time since he had been humiliated in public. Even the heads of the other two families had to show him some respect, but the emperor in front of him was too arrogant!
Upon hearing this, Chu Qiuchi's face turned panicked. Just as he was about to plead for Rong Shuo, he heard a cold and laughing female voice.
"Wait."
Patriarch Chu paused slightly and looked at the girl in red walking slowly in the hall, only to see her walk to Rong Shuo and stand still.
She bowed in the direction of the head of the Chu family, then smiled and said, "Master Chu, I, Yun Zheng, would like to have a discussion with you. I believe Rong Shuo is not guilty. Could it be that Master Chu feels that in order to protect his parents and injuring the enemy... he is guilty? However, to be honest, he is indeed a little disrespectful to you. But you should also put yourself in his shoes and think about how you treat his parents. If you allow others to bully his parents, will he still smile at you?"
When everyone heard these words, their expressions varied.
The head of the Chu family did listen to what he said, but he still couldn't calm down his anger. He sneered and said, "No matter what, I am his elder. His behavior is an offense to me!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Zheng secretly hooked the little finger of the man beside her and whispered to him, "Just tell him you're sorry. If you really want to fight with Patriarch Chu, regardless of whether you win or lose, Patriarch Chu will probably harbor a grudge against Aunt Chu. If Aunt Chu breaks up with Patriarch Chu because of this, I'm afraid she'll have a grudge against him in the future."
She found out some information about Aunt Chu from Chu Hong and Chu Lu.
Aunt Chu was the fourth child in the family and the youngest of the Chu family. She was doted on by many members of the Chu family from the moment she was born.
Because the head of the Chu family had a daughter in his old age, he doted on Aunt Chu especially. However, because Aunt Chu was determined to marry Nishino Weirong at all costs, she deeply hurt the head of the Chu family's heart, which led to a growing gap between the father and daughter.
The head of the Chu family believed that Xiye Weirong had low strength, average talent and foundation, and was born in the impoverished Five States. He would not achieve anything in the future and was not worthy of his precious daughter at all, so he disliked Xiye Weirong so much.
When Rong Shuo heard her voice transmission, he immediately looked up at the head of the Chu family, and without hesitation raised his hand and bowed as a junior.
"I was very rude just now."
Patriarch Chu was stunned: "???"
Everyone was stunned: "!!!"
You were so tense just now, why did you change so suddenly now?
So shocking!
When Patriarch Chu saw how polite he was, the anger in his heart could not burn at all. He frowned and looked at Rong Shuo below with a strange expression.
