All the court officials immediately looked around, and everyone looked at each other, only to realize that they didn't see the Regent at all.

"Your Majesty, we have not seen the Regent. Perhaps he is late." Shen Zhen, the Minister of Personnel, said respectfully.

The emperor was furious: "Today is the Cangyue Kingdom's sacrificial ceremony. For such an important occasion, the regent is late. Someone, go find ------- immediately."

Before the emperor finished speaking, a cold voice came: "No need to look for me, I am here!"

When everyone heard this, they were all frightened and stepped aside to make way for the Regent, who walked over in a swagger.

"Regent, today is a grand sacrificial ceremony, how can you be late? You don't respect the gods?" Shen Zhen, the Minister of Rites, accused.

He was recently promoted by the emperor and is very much favored by the emperor.

Shen Zhen knew that the Emperor did not like the Regent, so he deliberately criticized the Regent in front of everyone on such an occasion. In this way, His Majesty would definitely think that he was courageous and would respect him more.

What's more, today is a sacrificial ceremony, and the Regent would definitely not dare to do anything to him.

As a result, Shen Zhen was slapped in the face the next moment.

Cang Boyi's stern expression was like ten thousand years of ice, his dark eyes swept over coldly: "Who do you think you are? How dare you question this king!"

Cang Boyi roared angrily and kicked Shen Zhen hard.

"Ah!" With a scream, Shen Zhen was kicked out and fell heavily to the ground a few meters away. Shen Zhen grimaced in pain, and it seemed as if all his internal organs were shattered by the kick.

He wanted to say something, but suddenly a mouthful of blood spurted out.

The others were all terrified and took several steps back, fearing that they would be affected.

"Regent, how dare you beat a court official in public? Your Majesty, please help me!" Shen Zhen, the Minister of Rites, immediately complained.

The emperor's face was extremely gloomy. He naturally knew Cang Boyi's temper, and there was a hint of hostility in his eyes.

Although Shen Zhen is short-sighted, today is the priest ceremony after all, and the Regent actually beat the courtiers in front of him. As the saying goes, you have to look at the owner before you beat the dog. The Regent is provoking him.

Mo Wang Cang Tingchen, who was standing by, clearly sensed his father's anger and immediately spoke up, "Father, it is true that the emperor's uncle was late, but he actually beat up the Minister of Rites in public. This is a disregard for the law. If everyone follows the emperor's uncle's example, how can father govern Cang Yue Country in the future?"

As expected, as soon as these words came out, the emperor's expression became even uglier, veins bulged on his forehead, and the aura around him became dangerous.

Seeing the emperor furious, the prince quickly spoke up: "Father, I think Prince Mo is wrong. It was the Minister of Rites who was rude and deliberately said that the uncle was late, which made the uncle angry."

Prince Mo's face was dark: "Prince, are you lying with your eyes open? What benefit did the Regent King give you to make you speak for him?"

"The emperor's uncle did not do me any good. I was just discussing the matter. Everyone knows that the emperor's uncle is not in good health. He just walked a little slower. Why did the Minister of Rites say that the emperor's uncle was late ?

Today is the annual sacrificial ceremony of Cangyue Kingdom. If the gods knew that the person offering the sacrifice was late, would they still bestow blessings?

Anyone with a brain would not say such a thing intentionally, but the Minister of Rites said it anyway. I guess he doesn't want the sacrificial ceremony to go smoothly."

The prince recounted the incident word by word, and everyone who originally thought that the regent was going too far immediately pointed fingers at Shen Zhen.

After all, nothing is more important than sacrifice.

Cang Boyi raised his eyebrows slightly. He didn't expect the prince to speak for him.

Prince Mo's face turned black with anger, and he glared at the prince: "How come I don't know when the prince and the emperor's uncle have such a good relationship?"

The emperor hates factions the most, especially those involving his uncle. Let's see how the prince will defend himself this time.

"I have been eating soup and medicine for many years and have lived in the deep palace for a long time. I have only met the emperor's uncle a few times at palace banquets. How can I say that we have a good relationship?

If someone hadn't deliberately poisoned me, I would be extremely weak, unable to lift anything, and I would really like to have a fight with my uncle." The prince replied quietly.

One sentence can cause a thousand waves.

Everyone couldn't believe their ears. They only knew that the prince was weak, but they didn't know that he had been poisoned.

Prince Mo felt a little guilty, as he naturally knew that Concubine Xuan had poisoned the Crown Prince.

The emperor's brows were also furrowed. It was a grand sacrificial ceremony, so why was the prince saying these things?

"Your Majesty, has His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really been poisoned?" The King's uncle Nangong Qing asked immediately.

The emperor would naturally not admit it: "Over the years, the imperial physician has been helping the prince to regulate his body, but his condition has never improved, so the prince has been imagining things.

Today is the sacrificial ceremony. We can talk about this little thing later. It's your turn to be the regent. If you miss the time, you will be the sinner of Cang Yue Nation!"

The face of the king's uncle, Nangong Qing, became tense, and his hands in his sleeves clenched into fists. It seemed that he had to ask the queen for clarification.

The others were only concerned with the sacrificial ceremony, so naturally no one cared about the prince's life or death.

Cang Boyi glanced coldly at Shen Zhen who was not far away, walked straight over, and kicked him hard twice. These two kicks directly knocked Shen Zhen unconscious.

"No one in this world has dared to accuse me to my face. If it weren't for the sacrificial ceremony today where blood is not allowed, I would have killed him with my own hands. A dog dares to bite me? He overestimates his own abilities!" Cang Boyi spoke domineeringly.

He did it on purpose, deliberately cursing in front of the emperor and in front of everyone.

He is the villain regent, the living devil of Cangyue Kingdom. If he doesn't behave himself, these bored guys will think he is a sick cat and anyone can bully him.

Everyone was so frightened that they didn't even dare to breathe.

The emperor clenched his fists in his sleeves. He knew that the regent was deliberately provoking him. Damn it.

But during the sacrificial ceremony, the emperor naturally could not deal with the regent and could only suffer humiliation.

In the crowd, Ye Xingchen, who was in disguise, couldn't help but admire the domineering Regent.

It turns out that he is the man I like, so handsome.

Su Qianmian was responsible for the safety of this sacrifice, and he personally led his men in plain clothes to search the crowd.

When Su Qianmian passed by Ye Xingchen, he smelled a familiar herbal scent and subconsciously looked at Ye Xingchen.

Ye Xingchen froze. Why was Su Qianmian staring at him? Did he discover him?

"Master Su, why are you staring at my servant?" Luo Jinxiao suddenly asked.

Su Qianmian finally came back to his senses: "Nothing, I just felt that he looked familiar. There are many people at the sacrificial ceremony today, Mr. Luo, please be careful."

"I will, thank you, Lord Su." Luo Jinxiao replied indifferently.

Su Qianmian continued to walk forward, and when he turned around, he heard a voice coming from behind him.

"Oh my god, I was so scared. I thought Su Qianmian recognized me. But I was drawn like this. It's strange that he could recognize me."
