"Oh yeah?" Prime Minister Chu cared about what Gu Chaoyan said. He believed that she said that for a reason and she would like to hear her story.
Gu Chaoyan had a very complicated expression on her face. The reason why she said no was because she had drugged this man. When she first caught him, he tried to kill himself by biting off his own tongue, but Gu Chaoyan would never allow this to happen, so she injected a needle into him, so he became too paralyzed to do anything.
However, the drug was only going to last for a couple of hours and would fade soon. She had no such drug with her, and so she had to transport him back to the capital.
It depended on the King whether he was going to live or not, but Gu Chaoyan believed that the King was going to allow him to stay alive.
However, Gu Chaoyan was not going to tell Prime Minister Chu the real reason.
