Yu Ze followed Marquis Chen into the study.
As soon as he entered the study, Marquis Chen's face immediately dropped, and he gave Yu Ze a cold stare before saying, "Do you think you are so remarkable just because you dealt with Prime Minister Kong and Consort Yuan in one fell swoop, and even managed to protect the Daqian Dynasty's rivers and mountains?"
"No."
Yu Guang let out a cold snort. "No? If not, then how could you commit such an act of arrogance and presumption? The imperial edict from His Majesty was clearly a test of loyalty. Knowing how important this is, you still dared to defy it. Do you really think your life is too long? If you were truly so arrogant, why did you give up the throne to the Crown Prince in the first place? Since you have willingly become a subject, you should behave like one. Look at what you've done! It's a wonder the emperor has been merciful and hasn't punished you for this; otherwise, ten heads wouldn't be enough for you to lose!"
