The people Meng Qianshan sent soon found Huo Wujiu. He was in the army at this time. Upon hearing that Jiang Suizhou was rushing to see him, he immediately put down the matter in hand and rushed back to the palace.

Jiang Suizhou handed the secret letter to Huo Wujiu to read.

There were only a few words in the letter. Huo Wujiu only took a glance and frowned.

He put the letter on the table, and his eyebrows sharpened.

“Is he courting death?” His voice rang cold.

Jiang Suizhou said: “Not necessarily. Since he dared to come, he must have thought he’s outstandingly disguised himself in front of you. Or perhaps he suspects that you are suspicious of him and is eager to test you.”

Huo Wujiu sneered.

“Does he think I’ll still give him the chance?” he said.

Jiang Suizhou asked, “What do you plan to do?”

Huo Wujiu replied nonchalantly, “Didn’t send himself to the door? The entire Southern Jing is my territory now. He only has to come, and I will take him down. Once the letters that you saved alone are made public, this alone is enough for me to kill him.”

Although Huo Wujiu indeed spoke the truth, Jiang Suizhou shook his head and said, “That’s impossible.”

“What?” Huo Wujiu did not understand.Rread latest chapters at n/ov(e)lbin(.)co/m

Jiang Suizhou said, “If you were the Crown Prince now, or if he was just your subordinate, then you could indeed just kill him. However, he is now both your brother and the Crown Prince of Northern Liang. If you execute him based on a few letters, even if these letters are genuine, the world will say that you are brutal. After all, these letters did not really kill you, and it’s all in the past. Settling accounts at this juncture isn’t advisable.”

Huo Wujiu was not at all impressed.

“Let them speak,” he said, “Do you think I’m afraid of whatever comes out of their stinky mouths?”

Jiang Suizhou knew he wasn’t afraid of such things, but he was reluctant.

He had come from a thousand years later and knew what kind of reputation Huo Wujiu had. If such a General with a long-standing reputation ruined his reputation for the sake of a villain and became a traitorous official who was condemned by the emperor and reviled for centuries, it would be the biggest dishonor.

There should be a clear line between right and wrong.

Immediately afterwards, he heard Huo Wujiu say indifferently.

“But it doesn’t have to be like this.” He said, “It’s not been a day or two that he attempted to kill me, so why not give him another chance to do it?”

Although he sounded light-hearted, Jiang Suizhou discerned something in his tone.

He knew that Huo Wujiu wasn’t unforgiving, but complacent.

It wasn’t that Huo Wujiu was unable to think of a way to crush Huo Wujiu in one fell swoop. Unlike Huo Yuyan, he never bothered to use this way of imposing guilt to drive the other party to death unjustly.

He has always been this open and honest.

Jiang Suizhou raised his eyes to Huo Wujiu, he couldn’t resist smiling.

That smile lit his eyes up, and made Huo Wujiu’s heart race. His arm around Jiang Suizhou suddenly tightened.

The next moment, he raised his hand and covered Jiang Suizhou’s eyes, hiding those eyes.

“Hmm?” Jiang Suizhou was confused.

Huo Wujiu replied.

“Li Changning said you still have to recuperate for ten days to half a month to get well.” He said, “He asked me to be careful these days, and not to torment you.”

“So what?” Jiang Suizhou was puzzled and raised his hand to pull Huo Wujiu’s hand down, but Huo Wujiu stopped him.

When Huo Wujiu spoke again, his voice was already hoarse.

“So, in broad daylight, don’t provoke me,” he said.

Jiang Suizhou: “...”

Did I provoke him, or is his control too poor?

He just stared and smiled at him. How did it turn into seduction in his eyes?

This man was really proficient at turning things upside down.
