famous eldest daughter

Chapter 267 Relative
Concubine Shu never thought that she just wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble for Concubine Hui. Not only did Concubine Hui not be angry at all, but the emperor was not angry at Xiao Yu anymore. He looked at Xiao Yu with clearly loving eyes. There is no trace of previous annoyance.

Could it be that I said something wrong?

Concubine Shu bitterly twisted the handkerchief in her hand, while looking at Xiao Yu, she wondered what went wrong.

Upon hearing the emperor's question, Xiao Yu immediately turned to look at him and stood up. However, he did not answer immediately. He paused for a moment. When the eyes of almost everyone in the palace fell on him, he smiled and said: " My son was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat every time he saw Mu He looking at the Nanyue prince, and he was trying to persuade him."

His words immediately caused a commotion in the palace.

The legitimate son of the Chinanhou Mansion was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat when he saw the Prince of Nanyue. Was it because the legitimate son of the Chinanhou Mansion was timid and cowardly, or because the Prince of Nanyue had done something so frightening to others that he was so frightened like this? It left a shadow in the child's heart, or there was something else.

It would be fine if Mu He's identity was ordinary, but he was Gu Zhen's son, and everyone couldn't help but think carefully.

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, when he turned to look at Mu He, he happened to meet Gu Yuqing's gaze, and gave him a glance. Gu Yuqing understood it and stood up immediately. Yingying said: "Mu He is attending a palace banquet for the first time, so he is inevitably cautious. , Thank you for your concern, His Highness Fourth Highness, but this child grew up hunting in the mountains and forests, and is considered a courageous child, how could he be scared into a cold sweat?"

For the last few words, Gu Yuqing lowered her voice deliberately, as if she was mumbling to herself, but her voice was loud enough for the emperor to hear.

He grew up in a small mountain forest and hunted for a living. He had never seen any jackals, tigers or leopards, but he was so frightened by Chu Tiange that he broke into a cold sweat. Even if the emperor was not suspicious, he couldn't help but think too much at this time and glanced at Chu Tiange. , looked towards Mu He, "What scares you like this?"

Whether it was out of consideration for Gu Zhen's face or because Mu He was still young, the emperor's tone was gentle when he asked him.

But no matter how gentle the tone was, it couldn't solve the pain in Mu Hyuk's heart. Mu Hyuk was about to cry.

The content of Xiao Yu's conversation with him just now was clearly not what he said.

Xiao Yu only asked him if he was used to living in Chinanhou Mansion, whether the food in Chinanhou Mansion was good, whether he would have nightmares at night, whether he would be afraid of ghosts, and whether he had seen three He is actually a weirdo in his fifties. He goes to the hut several times a day. When hunting, he has never killed anyone other than hunting animals. How many people have he killed? How did he kill him?

Xiao Yu kept asking questions like this that were baffling and impossible to answer. It was no wonder that he was breaking out in a cold sweat.

Especially when Xiao Yu mentioned the phrase "a weirdo who looks like he is three years old but is actually in his fifties", he was even more shocked from head to toe. He made a fist with his right hand and almost crushed the armrest beside him, so he could hold back his emotions and not let them surface.

The secret of their boy scouts is known to only Chu Tiande in the world, and even the Emperor of South Vietnam may not know it.

At this moment, the foreign prince asked casually in such a joking tone, how could he not be shocked.

And the Gusu family in Qibei he mentioned made his whole body tremble.

But when the emperor asked, he never expected that Xiao Yu would answer like this. He was just lying and involved Chu Tiande.

Mu He couldn't tell for a moment whether Xiao Yu did it accidentally or deliberately, but he had to answer the emperor's question.

But he couldn't really repeat what Xiao Yu just said in front of everyone and tell everyone that Xiao Yu was lying.

No matter what he said, others wouldn't believe it.

With thousands of thoughts running through his mind, he couldn't answer the emperor's words, so he simply threw the hot potato directly to Gu Yuqing.

After standing up and saluting, Mu He turned to look at Gu Yuqing. His eyes looked very much like Gu Zhen's, filled with tears and biting his lower lip with extra force.

His look was like that of a child who was so frightened that he didn't even dare to say anything when faced with the Holy Power, which made people feel pity in their hearts.

Seeing this, Gu Yuqing felt her stomach churn and vomit. She suppressed the disgust in her heart and said, "Your Majesty asks you a question. Just answer it truthfully."

Instead of answering directly for him as Mu Hyuk thought, the fireball returned to Mu Hyuk's hands again.

With Gu Yuqing's words there, it was already impossible for him to throw the fireball to Gu Yuqing. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and look at Chu Tiange, hoping that he could give him a hint.

Mu He really wanted to punch Xiao Yu to death, but why was the lie told so cunningly that it was impossible to answer.

Seeing Mu He's questioning look, Chu Tiange's eyes suddenly filled with anger and murderous intent.

Unable to restrain Chu Tianzhi's gaze, Mu He's chest shrank immediately, his face turned pale again, and a dense layer of cold sweat trickled down his cheeks.

In this world, he is not afraid of jackals, tigers, or leopards, but he is afraid of Chu Tiande, to the core of his being.

He clearly understood the meaning of Chu Tiange's gaze just now. With fear and fear, Mu He's mind was spinning rapidly, thinking of a suitable answer.

However, before he could answer, Xiao Yu's voice sounded in his ears again.

"Father, you also saw it. Just now, this child glanced at Chu Tiange. Just one glance. Look at how frightened he was!" Xiao Yu said while sighing in distress. He also picked up his handkerchief and wiped his sweat.

The cold sweat on Mu He's forehead was real. Xiao Yu wiped it off with a handkerchief, and it was immediately soaked.

Xiao Yu shook the wet handkerchief, and a few drops of sweat were immediately thrown out, drawing an arc in the air and disappearing somewhere.

After this, everyone knew that he was indeed frightened into a cold sweat by Chu Tiange, and he could not explain himself.

Seeing this, the emperor immediately turned to look at Chu Tiange, his face was neither warm nor sullen, and he could not show any signs of calming down. Although he was smiling, his voice was dull and he said: "Look at how you frightened the son of our general. What happened!"

Facing the prince of a neighboring country, no matter how suspicious the emperor was, he could not criticize him in public.

It's just that it seems like a joke, but there is no trace of joke in it.

Chu Tiange's eyebrows were raised slightly, and he seemed not to be affected by what was happening in front of him at all. The smile that had been there from beginning to end and had never changed was still hanging on the corner of his mouth, and he said: "That can only mean that your country A great general, nothing more than that."

The emperor was trying to save face for him, but he spoke rudely. The emperor immediately felt a little uneasy, but regardless of the distinction between guest and host, he could not get angry immediately just because of his status as a king, which would make people think that he was magnanimous narrow.

I saved my face, but my heart felt uncomfortable.
