My System Is Three Thousand Years Early Chapter 434 - 124: Is it Your Majesty? Zhao Jin!! (Please Su

"Your Majesty."

Emperor Zhou didn’t respond to Zhao Jin but instead focused all his attention on Wu Yuei.

"Yuei has co to see Us. What is the matter?"

As Emperor Zhou spoke, he didn’t glance at Cheng Zhihai.

And Cheng Zhihai had no intent to speak either, silently following behind Wu Yuei.

At this mont, he seed to have beco invisible.

Wu Yuei, graceful and dignified, donned a cyan long skirt with a blue base and a Flowing Bead Hairpin in her hair. A touch of rouge made her appear luxurious yet solemn.

However, the depths of Wu Yuei’s eyes hid intense fatigue and sorrow.

"Your Majesty, Guanger has had an accident."

Wu Yuei slowly started speaking.

Upon hearing this, Emperor Zhou was taken aback at first, then his authoritative countenance showed a hint of sadness, and he sighed softly.

"Yuei, you know of this as well."

"Did Zhihai tell you about it?"

Emperor Zhou said this while glancing at Cheng Zhihai who wasn’t far aside.

Wu Yuei didn’t wait for Cheng Zhihai to answer, shaking her head straight away, her eyes fixed intently on Emperor Zhou.

"Your Majesty, why didn’t you allow Cheng Zhihai to leave the Capital city to look for Guanger."

Although Wu Yuei heard from Cheng Zhihai that the incident involving Cheng Guang might involve Emperor Zhou’s shadow, she didn’t co forth and directly accuse Emperor Zhou of laying hands on Cheng Guang.

Asking in such a manner, whether or not this affair was Emperor Zhou’s doing, it would undoubtedly be akin to tearing off the face.

Wu Yuei still harbored a sliver of fantasy towards Emperor Zhou, thinking he wouldn’t be so heartlessly ruthless.

To even kill her own nephew.

Listening to Wu Yuei’s questioning, Emperor Zhou’s face froze slightly, his eyes fixed on Wu Yuei, "Yuei, these words, did Zhihai ask you to say them?"

His tone was not very severe.

Yet it exerted imnse pressure on both Wu Yuei and Cheng Zhihai.

The unique aura of the Heavenly Human Realm, even just a hint leaking out, weighed upon the two of them as if a great mountain was pressing down, making it difficult for them to breathe.

Cheng Zhihai was still alright.

But Wu Yuei’s face turned pale, yet she still propped herself up, her eyes stubbornly looking at Emperor Zhou, "It was my question!"

"Such a big incident has occurred to Guanger, and yet Your Majesty, you did not personally inquire about it and even prevented Cheng Zhihai from leaving the Capital city. Are you afraid Cheng Zhihai might discover sothing?"

"How audacious!"

Emperor Zhou watched Wu Yuei, his tone faltering slightly as his mood surged, his face growing darker.

Cheng Zhihai, without any hesitation, stepped forward to shield Wu Yuei behind him, and with bowed head, admitted fault, "Your Majesty, the words Yuei spoke were without thought, we beg for Your Majesty’s forgiveness."

As soon as Cheng Zhihai finished speaking.

Wu Yuei pushed Cheng Zhihai away from in front of her with one hand, confronting Emperor Zhou’s aura on her own.

Even faced with the looming presence exuded by Emperor Zhou, like a high mountain impossible to look up to, there was still no fear apparent on Wu Yuei’s face.

She spoke plainly:

"Your Majesty, just tell , did you do this or not?"

At that mont.

Silence reigned, and the surrounding palace maids and eunuchs held their breath, not daring to breathe heavily. They knew, Princess Yuei had crossed the line!

Emperor Zhou had long established his reign, his authority deep and unwavering, no one dared challenge his command!

Even though Emperor Zhou granted freedom of speech, allowing officials to speak freely, anyone who truly disobeyed his orders did not live past the second day.

If Emperor Zhou beca angry now, even Wu Yuei would likely suffer greatly.

In this peculiar silence.

Wu Yuei remained unafraid, her gaze steady and direct at Emperor Zhou.

And Emperor Zhou, under Wu Yuei’s gaze, whether out of soft-heartedness or guilt, first averted his eyes as the tumultuous aura around him began to subside.

He glanced briefly at Cheng Zhihai not far away, his expression turning colder in an instant.

"Zhihai, take Yuei back."

There was a warning in his tone.

Cheng Zhihai’s heart sank a bit more, and he quickly bowed his head, no longer daring to look at Emperor Zhou’s face.

"Yuei..."

Cheng Zhihai tugged at Wu Yuei, urging her to leave.

The current attitude of Emperor Zhou had already proved a lot.

To insist on Emperor Zhou’s personal admission to the affair was of little significance.

What if he admitted it?

And what if he didn’t?

Cheng Zhihai suddenly felt utterly powerless.

Yet Wu Yuei didn’t care about all that and waved Cheng Zhihai off, not letting him touch her.

Her gaze stayed on Emperor Zhou.

It seed she would not leave without an answer.

But Emperor Zhou didn’t bother with Wu Yuei anymore and slowly got up to leave.

At the very mont the doors of Emperor Zhou’s bed chamber closed tight.

Wu Yuei’s body weakened considerably.

The defiant look on her face could no longer be maintained.

Her beautiful eyes trembled, tears starting to flow.

Emperor Zhou neither confird nor denied the allegations.

But all the signs already indicated that he was involved in this affair.

Why would he do such a thing?

Wu Yuei truly did not understand.

"Wu Shang!"

After a mont of silence, Wu Yuei called out hoarsely.

"In the past, in order to secure your throne, you eliminated the crown prince and all other princes who posed a threat to your rule!"

"Wasn’t that enough?"

"Has Duke Zhen’s Mansion now beco a thorn in your side as well?"

"Do you truly wish to kill everyone in Duke Zhen’s Mansion except for Duke Zhen himself before you are satisfied!?"
