Chu Qianchen was somewhat disappointed and quickened his pace towards the Yongding Marquis Mansion.

She did not notice that a black horse with its four hooves stepping on the snow was leisurely shaking its tail in the alley next to Jishidi Hall, and the owner of the black horse, Prince Chen Gu Jue, strode into Jishidi Hall with big strides.

He wore a moon-white Taoist robe with a white collar and a lake blue silk ribbon tied around his waist.

As he walked, his wide sleeves fluttered, and the simple Taoist robe made him look as elegant as the moonlight and the breeze.

The guy was about to stop him when he heard Mo Chen's voice behind him:

"Master!"

Mo Chen was about to return to the back hall to see Yun Zhan, but he didn't expect Gu Jue to come and immediately saluted him with a fist.

"How is Yunzhan?" Gu Jue asked as soon as he stepped into the front hall, his breathing a little disordered.

Gu Jue had just heard the news of Yun Zhan's injury, and he rushed here as soon as possible on horseback. On the way here, he passed by the Qingming Tea Shop. The large pool of blood outside the shop had dried up long ago, but it was still shocking.

Gu Jue already had the worst plan in mind.

He had fought on the battlefield for so many years that he naturally knew that if the neck was cut by a sharp blade and the blood vessels in the neck were damaged, there was a definite death risk.

"Master, Yunzhan is alive." Mo Chen said hurriedly.

Gu Jue opened his eyes slightly.

Mo Chen is not good at speaking, but he never speaks without purpose.

So, Yunzhan really survived? !

This unexpected surprise made Gu Jue feel relieved. His eyes passed through Mo Chen and fell on the loyal and brave Earl who came out from the back hall. He changed the subject and said, "Go and look after Yun Zhan first."

Mo Chen clasped his fists in response and turned to enter the back hall.

"Your Highness!" Earl Zhongyong stepped forward, bowed to Gu Jue, and said with a forced smile, "Yunzhan is a naughty boy. Thank you for your care, Your Highness."

Prince?! The man also heard the title of Earl Zhongyong, and his legs went weak. He looked at Gu Jue in disbelief.

Although the capital is full of powerful people, this young man who looks as elegant as a scholar is actually a prince? !

The guy took a step back silently.

He suddenly felt that Ice Face became a little cuter again. Fortunately, Ice Face called out to him quickly, so he did not offend the nobleman.

"Since Lord is here too, it will be easy." Gu Jue looked at Lord Zhongyong with a smile.

His smile was gentle, making people feel like they were in a spring breeze, but his eyes were so cold that there was not a trace of warmth in them.

When Lord Zhongyong heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He sensed ill intentions from Gu Jue's words.

"Your Highness, it was my son Yunhao who accidentally injured his younger brother, and he was very upset. Fortunately, Yunzhan was fine, otherwise he would have regretted it to death." The smile on Earl Zhongyong's face became even more stiff.

Although Earl Zhongyong had not made any achievements in the court, he was a nobleman after all. He had seen some of the world and could still maintain his noble airs in front of Gu Jue.

His words were also a tactful reminder to Gu Jue that Yun Hao and Yun Zhan were both his sons, they were brothers, and the fights between brothers were just the Yun family's family affairs.

Earl Zhongyong lowered his posture and said softly, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty. When I return, I will punish that brat severely and make him apologize to Yunzhan."

"Apologize?" Gu Jue's voice was as clear as the collision of jade.

The slightly rising tone of voice made Uncle Zhongyong shudder.

Earl Zhongyong said quickly, "Your Majesty, I want Yunhao to kneel down and kowtow to his brother."

Gu Jue casually raised his hand to brush off his sleeves and said calmly, "Since Yunzhan is fine, I will not pursue the matter."

Earl Zhongyong breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help wiping the cold sweat from his forehead with his sleeve.

"Just cut off one of the third young master Yun's hands." Gu Jue continued, his tone calm and light, neither light nor heavy, neither angry nor furious, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Uncle Zhongyong: “!!!”

Zhongyong Bo was shocked and blurted out: "How can this be possible! Your Majesty, Yunzhan is fine now."

"Yes," Gu Jue stood with his hands behind his back and said lightly, "So, there is no need for Third Young Master Yun to pay for his blood debt with blood."

“Your Majesty…”

Before Uncle Zhongyong could continue his argument, a shrill voice came from outside Jishidi Hall: "Dad! Dad!"

It’s Yun Hao.

Immediately afterwards, Yun Hao, with disheveled hair, was escorted into the front hall of the clinic by two young generals in black armor.

Zhongyong Bo shouted in horror: "What are you doing?!"

"Let him go!"

Bo Zhongyong rushed forward and wanted to pull Yun Hao away, but he had been idle for many years and could not lift anything with his shoulders or hands. How could he be a match for these elite soldiers who had fought down from the battlefield?

The two young warriors in black armor easily avoided his hand.

"Your Highness," Earl Zhongyong could only turn to Gu Jue and beg him kindly, "Please have mercy on me, Your Highness. Yun Hao is still young, and he already knows he is wrong."

"Yun Hao, why don't you apologize to the prince!" Earl Zhongyong said to Yun Hao in a stern voice.

"You don't have to apologize, Lord." Gu Jue still smiled and said softly, "I only need one of his hands."

"Master, do you want to do it yourself, or do you want me to have someone do it for you?"

He looked indifferent. He was clearly just a few feet away, yet he seemed so far away.

He has a noble bearing and elegant manners, and even in just a few words, he carries a murderous and daring aura.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Earl Zhongyong felt cold all over as he looked at Gu Jue.

Yun Hao was so frightened that his legs were shaking like a sieve.

Prince Chen wants to cut off one of his hands?

No, it's not possible!

It was clearly Yun Zhan that bastard's skills were inferior to others, why should he be cut off from his hands? !

"Dad, please save me." Yun Hao shouted with a trembling voice, "I didn't mean to do that. It's all Yun Zhan's fault for not dodging."

"Dad, I always listen to my uncle..."

"Shut up!" Uncle Zhongyong shouted loudly, interrupting Yun Hao's words.

He fiercely winked at Yun Hao, signaling him not to talk nonsense, and then said to Gu Jue: "Your Highness, Yun Zhan is my son. I will not let him down."

In the final analysis, this was just a quarrel between brothers. Even he, as a father, did not say anything. Why did the Prince of Chen have to be so aggressive? !

Thinking about this, the attitude of the Loyal and Brave Earl became tougher, and he continued: "Your Highness, this is the capital, under the feet of the emperor, not the north."

"You want to cut off a person's hand just for one word. This is really too much of an abuse of power."

The Loyal and Brave Earl was reminding Gu Jue that the North was far away and he could do whatever he wanted, but this was the capital and there was the Emperor! If the incident got out of hand, it would not be good for Gu Jue.

“It seems that Master is reluctant to do so, then…” Gu Jue just raised his eyelids, and the young generals in black armor who restrained Yun Hao immediately understood, and one of them slightly exerted force on the hand that was holding Yun Hao’s right arm.

Click!

"ah--"

Yun Hao’s face turned pale and he howled like a pig being slaughtered.

Gu Jue waved his hand casually, and the two young warriors in black armor let go of Yun Hao.

Without the support of these two people, Yun Hao fell to the ground in a mess. He covered his broken right hand and rolled on the ground in pain, sweating profusely.

“Brother Hao!” Uncle Zhongyong turned pale, and rushed over in grief, hugged his son tightly, and shouted, “Doctor!”

"Where is that girl from before? Someone, come! Quick! Call her back to let Hao Ge'er treat her."

"Brother Hao!"

“…”

Gu Jue stood where he was, looking down at Lord Zhongyong, his eyes were extremely clear and calm, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

"I am just taking advantage of my power to bully others." He said calmly.

After saying this, he no longer looked at Uncle Zhongyong and his son, walked past them, and went straight to the back hall.

Earl Zhongyong looked at Gu Jue's tall back and felt as if he was falling into an ice cellar. The look in Gu Jue's eyes just now seemed to be able to penetrate his heart, making him feel that he had nowhere to hide.

That look seemed to say that he knew everything.

His eyes changed from bright to dark, and the shadow of the medicine cabinet next to him fell on his face, adding a touch of darkness.
