Chu Ruishi turned to look at Feng Yili and asked, looking very tired, “I want to know what happened back then. How did the forr King of Youshan and Cheng’an die?”

“Seven years ago, Yuzhou encountered a disaster. The King of Youshan’s Residence tried its best to settle commoners, but soone deliberately spread rumors to cause unrest among the people. With this, the situation grew worse. Li Cheng’an took the initiative to go to the disaster area to comfort the people, but he was assassinated on the way back,” Feng Yili said expressionlessly, “When I saved him, his heart was already damaged beyond help. Although I managed to keep him alive with expensive herbs, he only lasted half a month after he returned to the residence. The King of Youshan also fell ill because of this. However, the situation in Yu Zhou was still very bad. The commoners felt even more uneasy when they heard that Li Cheng’an was seriously injured.”

Then, Feng Yili continued to say in an extrely sarcastic tone, “Even under those circumstances, the imperial court did not do anything.”

Chu Zai’s expression was extrely gloomy. He wanted to stop Feng Yili from speaking, but when he sensed Chu Ruishi’s anger, he could only dismiss this idea.

“The forr King of Youshan knew that situation was bad. He knew that if he couldn’t calm the commoners down, they wouldn’t be able to survive. As such, he asked for my help. He wanted to pretend to be Li Cheng’an and help the people of Yuzhou through difficult tis,” Feng Yili said coldly.

“Seven years ago… I rember when ‘Li Cheng’an’ recovered, he made a bold move and changed many of the strategies the imperial court wanted to implent in Yuzhou. In just three months, Yuzhou successfully survived the crisis,” Chu Ruishi said as he looked at Feng Yili with a complicated expression. Although he was in seclusion back then, he had heard about this matter. At that ti, he had even joked with Li Xu that the forr King of Youshan had raised an outstanding grandson. Who knew that it was not Li Cheng’an, but Feng Yili? His mood was extrely low when he thought about this.

At this ti, Chu Yuemu gritted his teeth and said, “Hmph! Fine, let’s just say you lied to Imperial Father for the sake of the people of Yuzhou. However, after the disaster ended, why didn’t you co clean? Admit it! You have ulterior motives!”

Consort Mu chid in, refusing to let Feng Yili go, “That’s right. Who knows if you were the one who killed the King of Youshan and Li Cheng’an so you could infiltrate Xichu?”

The mother and son exchanged a look.

Then, Chu Yuemu said confidently, “You must be the one who tried to assassinate Imperial Father today and frad us!”

“Fra you? Then why am I injured?” Feng Yili asked coldly.

Feng Yili’s powerful aura was not sothing a wealthy and hedonistic prince like Chu Yuefu could withstand. His face paled, and he could not speak.

‘Trash!’

Chu Zai glared at Chu Yuemu, feeling even more disgusted with the latter. ‘If my princes were half as capable as Feng Yili, what would I have to fear?’

Despite his thoughts, Chu Zai said to Feng Yili, “Feng Yili, the Seventh Prince has a point. Why didn’t you co clean after the disaster? Instead, you continued to occupy the identity of Li Cheng’an and even inherited the title.”

“The King of Youshan’s Residence has 100,000 Yuzhou soldiers. If I co clean, where will the 100,000 soldiers go?” Feng Yili asked expressionlessly.

“The King of Youshan’s Residence has no successor. Naturally, the 100,000 soldiers will have to return to the hands of the country,” Chu Zai replied gloomily.

“Your Majesty, can you guarantee that the 100,000 soldiers will be returned to the country and not be buried in the wilderness?” Feng Yili asked again.

Chu Zai’s expression turned unsightly imdiately. “What do you an? Are you saying that I’d kill them?”

“It’s not just about the resettlent of the 100,000 soldiers. The person who killed Li Cheng’an has yet to be caught. I promised the forr King of Youshan that I’d definitely avenge his grandson.”

Upon hearing this, Chu Ruishi asked anxiously, “So did you take the initiative to reveal your identity today because you’ve found the culprit?”

“Back then, the people who chased after Li Cheng’an had this emblem on them. n, bring the box here.”

As soon as Feng Yili’s voice fell, Jiang Chuan carried a large box in. When he opened the box, a strange sll wafted out.

“At that ti, those people were already dead. As such, I asked people to cut off their flesh that had been tattooed with the emblem before preserving the flesh with a special thod.”

‘W-what? F-flesh?’

So people were curious and could not help but steal a glance.

Layers of skin were stacked up in the box. Although they were wrinkled, the emblems were very clear.

They looked very disgusting, and so people could not help but retch.

Feng Yili looked at Chu Zai and asked directly, “Your Majesty, these are the emblems of the Imperial Army, right? It’s said that every imperial guard has to be tattooed with this emblem with a special ink. Only the imperial family of Xichu has the special ink. What do you think happened?”

“How dare you? Are you saying that I sent people to kill Li Cheng’an?” Chu Zai was so angry that the veins on his forehead were showing.

Everyone’s hearts skipped a beat.

‘As expected of the Prince Regent of Tianxia. He’s so bold that he even dares to question the Emperor of Xichu!’

‘Even if the Emperor of Xichu is really the culprit, how dare he be so impudent in another person’s territory as a prince of another country masquerading as the King of Youshan?’

After a long silence, Feng Yili looked at Chu Ruishi and said, “Emperor Eritus, I’ve already said what needed to be said. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to verify the veracity of my words.”

Chu Ruishi looked as though he had aged overnight. He understood everything.

Feng Yili had done so much just to seek justice for the King of Youshan’s Residence today. In fact, evidence was not difficult to find at all. It was also not difficult to guess that Chu Zai was the culprit. Chu Zai could not tolerate the King of Youshan’s Residence back then so he attacked.

However, Feng Yili deliberately waited for so many years before he finally revealed the truth today. In fact, what he was doing was to wait for Chu Ruishi to make a choice. In the entire Xichu, only Chu Ruishi, the Emperor Eritus, could give justice to the King of Youshan’s Residence. ‘But the person who made a mistake is… my son…’

Chu Ruishi staggered slightly.

Upon seeing this, Yu Yunxi’s heart skipped a beat, and she called out worriedly, “Grandfather!”

Feng Yili held Yu Yunxi’s cold hand and said in a low voice, “Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to harm the Emperor Eritus.”

anwhile, Chu Ruishi took a deep breath as mories of the past resurfaced in his mind. After all, it was difficult for him to make a decision.

After a long silence, Feng Yili suddenly said, “Apart from the emblems, I also found this on the assassins.

With that, Feng Yili brought out a token with the word ‘Mu’ on it..
