She didn't know why Chu Yihan hadn't appeared earlier, but upon seeing blood on his sword, she surmised that he had been stopped by Chu Mingyuan.
Chu Mingyuan tightened his hands on his knees and spoke in a cold, forceful tone. "What's wrong? Ninth brother, are you trying to assassinate me in the palace for a woman?"
"Emperor, Your Highness doesn't mean that!" Su Yingxue hurriedly helped clarify.
"So what?" Chu Yihan's cold and bloodthirsty voice carried a murderous aura that could destroy the world.
Su Yingxue looked at his reddened eyes, seemingly unable to control his temper.
Leaning against him, she quickly advised, "Your Highness, don't engage in conflict with the emperor!"
Chu Yihan entering the palace with his sword was already disrespectful in front of everyone. Any further offense would surely give the emperor a reason to deal with him!
