Chapter 300 - The Crown Prince Was Guilty



Chapter 300: The Crown Prince Was Guilty

“Crown Prince, I heard that Grand Tutor Xiahou also knows a little about cultivation?”

The State Minister looked at the Crown Prince and asked faintly.

Everyone looked at the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince’s heart paused, but he pretended to be puzzled. “Oh? Grand Tutor Xiahou actually has such capabilities?”

“I also heard about it by chance.”

The State Minister tapped the lid of the teacup twice.

Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan understood immediately.

The State Minister suspected that the person who wanted him dead was Grand Tutor Xiahou.

“I’ve studied under Grand Tutor Xiahou for many years, but have never heard of him knowing how to cultivate. Where did you hear that from?”

The Crown Prince put on a curious expression.

The Eldest Prince glanced at him and smiled faintly. “Speaking of Grand Tutor Xiahou’s capabilities, I had the honor of seeing them once.”

When he spoke, everyone’s gaze immediately shifted from the Crown Prince to him.

The Emperor said, “Son, tell me quickly. I want to hear what other skills Grand Tutor Xiahou has that I’m unaware of.”

“When I went to find Brother one time, I saw snakes and rats outside the Crown Prince’s Mansion. Afraid that something would happen to Brother, I panicked and climbed over the wall without knocking on the door. I happened to see Grand Tutor Xiahou playing the flute.”

The Crown Prince’s expression changed slightly.

He did not realize that the Eldest Prince had entered his courtyard.

“Beast taming skills?”

The Emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at the Crown Prince.

The Crown Prince swallowed his saliva and pretended to be shocked. “Grand Tutor Xiahou actually has such capabilities. This is also the first time I’ve heard of it.”

The Eldest Prince smiled. “I was shocked back then. After returning from Brother’s mansion, I had nightmares continuously and only recovered after a few days.”

He did not care if the Crown Prince admitted it or not. He only wanted to leak the news to the State Minister.

The scene he saw then was Xiahou Tang teaching the Crown Prince how to tame beasts. However, now was not the time for them to fall out with each other.

He had to give the Crown Prince some face.

When the State Minister heard that, he picked up his teacup and blew on it twice. His eyelids drooped slightly as if he was deep in thought.

Chu Sihan and Lu Sheng looked at each other and tacitly maintained their silence.

However, it was different for Ye Luo.

He could not care less and said directly, “That thousand-year-old Red Dog was controlled by someone yesterday. It tried to kill Senior Brother repeatedly. Could it be that Grand Tutor?”

When he said this, the Crown Prince panicked, but the other officials did not dare to vent their anger.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Ye Luo hurriedly laughed and said, “I was just joking. There’s no need to be so serious.”

When the Crown Prince heard that, to cover up his guilt, he said angrily, “Hero Ye, although you’re from the martial world, you have to know your limits when you speak. How can you say such slanderous words so easily?”

The State Minister put down his teacup and said lightly, “This Junior Brother of mine is used to being straightforward. His words have never gone through his mind. Crown Prince, please calm down.”

The Crown Prince could act self-righteously in front of Ye Luo but not the State Minister.

That was because he felt that the State Minister should already know something.

“Alright.”

The Emperor glanced at the Crown Prince indifferently and stood up. “I still have some matters to attend to in the palace, so I won’t stay any longer.”

The eunuchs standing at the side hurried forward to support him.

“Farewell, Your Majesty!”

Everyone knelt to send him off.

Once the Emperor left, the Eldest Prince and the Crown Prince naturally followed suit.

Prime Minister Fu and the State Minister stayed behind.

Prime Minister Fu looked at Lu Sheng. When he thought of what happened the night before, his expression became slightly awkward.

“We didn’t attend to Miss Lu well when you came to the mansion previously. I’m really sorry.”
