Prince Bo was of the royal family and, though a highly skilled martial artist, he ultimately paled in comparison to a celebrated battlefield general like Rong Yao, ultimately suffering a fatal injury at Rong Yao's hands.
"I was reckless, my lord. My intention was to capture him alive, but the man proved too troublesome. I accidentally killed him, I ask for Your Highness' punishment."
These were the words Rong Yao spoke as he descended from the city tower and came to bow before Yuan Tang to confess his crime.
At this moment, Yuan Tang still stood by Gu Changqing's side, mounted on a tall and majestic horse, looking down condescendingly at his uncle, Rong Yao.
He laughed coldly in his heart.
Even his uncle must not believe such implausible tales, right?
Indeed, if Prince Bo had not been killed, what would they do if he returned to the Imperial Palace and spoke out against Rong Yao?
His uncle truly proved to be far-sighted and ruthless.
