He did not earn the title of the Southern Chieftain for nothing.
In the year since he arrived in Ye City, he had tried hard to keep a low profile, but his dominating personality would leak out from time to time. The entire imperial court of Yue Country knew he was from a downtrodden family, so people usually refrained from provoking him. Now, unjustifiably smeared, he couldn't bear it and immediately cursed out.
Yu Ping was cursed like a dog, and instantly shed tears: "Your Majesty, look at Marquis Huaiyuan's behavior. Even in your presence, he dares to threaten others verbally. I can't imagine what he would do if you were not here! Such behavior, along with conspiracy in his heart, is totally unacceptable!"
Su Tang rolled up her sleeves: "Nonsense! If I really wanted to rebel, do I need to wait until my whole family arrives in Ye City to do it, throwing our lives into Your Majesty's hand? When I am far from the Emperor in South Border, why don't I plot my rebellion there?"
