This point, not only did Kaiser notice it, even Yan Yuan who was normally not paying much attention to the emotions of the bystanders, had clearly sensed that this eighth brother's words and actions were filled with a sense of impatience, as if he was in a hurry to go home and meet someone.
Moreover, his entire person's spirit wasn't as depressed as it was a few days ago. Had this kid suddenly thought it through?
"Your Majesty, do you have any other questions? If there are no more, I will return to my residence first. "
Kaiser looked at Yan Jue's high-spirited face in a daze. He had some doubts in his heart, but he did not ask anything.
"It's fine now, let Imperial Uncle take it easy."
Yan Jue cupped his hands together, and quickly left the imperial study. The swiftly leaving figure still made Yan Yuan and Yan Shuo feel extremely puzzled.
"Is the eighth uncle alright?"
Yan Yuan did not answer, he only looked at Yan Jue's back, and seemed to have thought about it for a while, before saying: "He should be fine."
According to the usual practice, after the questions were decided, the examiners would stay in the designated places until the spring, and there would be guards there to prevent the questions from being leaked out.
But this time, the main examiner was Yan Jue. Everyone knew that the current emperor trusted his two uncles in the capital with everything he had, so there was no possibility of the Eighth Prince changing the topic when he was the main examiner.
Yan Shuo knew that because of Liu Tianxin's death, his mood had been downcast. It was rare to see him in a better mood, so he naturally wouldn't lock him up in a prison compound for a month.
Therefore, even though Yan Jue was the main examiner of this spring, he did not stay at the designated place as usual. Instead, after bidding farewell to the Kaiser, he hurriedly returned to the Duke Palaces.
Today, when he returned to the Duke Palaces, he happened to be in front of the Evening meal and servants were preparing the Evening meal. When the butler saw him return, he immediately went up and told Yan Jue what had happened this morning.
Seeing Yan Jue's expression darken more and more, gradually turning black, then green, and then uncontrollable rage, an ice-cold light condensed in his eyes.
As expected …
"Bring two lowly maidservants over to this king."
Yan Jue rarely ever showed a frightful look in front of outsiders, so when the servants saw him, they were all shocked, this was the first time they saw their master being so fierce.
"Yes."
After the butler left, very quickly, the two servants who had been speaking ill of Liu Tian Xin that morning were brought up. When they were brought up in front of Yan Jue, their faces were already ashen as they collapsed onto the ground.
"Slave …" Your servant greets you, your highness. "
The two of them quickly bowed to Yan Jue, but saw that Yan Jue stood in front of them without saying a word, and did not say a word for a long time.
The more it was like this, the more fatal it was for them. They had no idea how this prince, who always seemed to be a very good-natured person, was going to punish them.
It was said that waiting for death was worse than death.
However, they still felt quite lucky in their hearts. After all, the prince that they knew was a very amiable person.
But even so, the moment they inadvertently looked at Yan Jue's face, just that one glance was like they were thrown into an ice tower, their entire bodies frozen.
"Someone, come."
Yan Jue finally spoke up, scaring the two of them so much that their entire bodies started trembling, "Let's sew up their mouths, so that they know what a disaster is, otherwise their mouths will cause them to lose their lives again."
When the two people heard that the Prince was going to deal with them like this, they were so scared that they started to kowtow and beg for forgiveness, hoping that Yan Yuan would be soft-hearted. They kowtowed very hard, but Yan Jue did not even bat an eyelid.
"My lord, have mercy, my lord, have mercy …" "Ugh …"
Very quickly, the two people were brought down for execution, they were said to be brought down, but they were only a few meters away from Yan Jue, the servants in the courtyard were all watching, the shocking scene caused everyone to suck in a breath of cold air, their bodies stiff and unable to move. The cold feeling in their hearts, extended all the way to their feet.
They thought that the prince would feel pity for them in a moment, but they saw that he stood there without a change in expression, and did not say a single word. It was obvious that he wanted to kill the chicken for the monkey to see.
This was also the first time they had seen their prince act so viciously. Just because of the disrespectful words of those two maidservants, he had been able to act so ruthlessly.
After the two maidservants' mouths were sewn shut, their mouths were covered in blood. Some of the timid ones didn't even dare to look straight at them.
"Your Highness, what should we do now?"
The two maidservants were already on the verge of death as they kneeled on the ground, trembling in pain.
"Send them to the Ten Thousand Flowers House, regardless of life or death!"
Ten Thousand Flowers House was a brothel that was famous in the capital. Was the Prince going to send them there?
The two servants were originally on the verge of death, but upon hearing that Yan Jue was going to send them to the brothel, they nearly fainted.
One of them had a rather fierce temper and would rather die than go to a brothel. He used his last breath and directly crashed into a flower pot in the courtyard.
Yan Jue stood on the spot with no use, he only called out in a low voice, "Tianshu."
As the voice fell, a black figure emerged from the shadows, and kicked the servant who was about to die to kick his back in front of Yan Jue.
"I'm going to die after I go to the Ten Thousand Flowers House."
The Mother Liu watched from the side and was still a little unwilling. She walked to Yan Jue's side and whispered: "My prince, these two people have signed a death contract. We cannot sell them to the brothels. There will be cases of forced prostitution. "
Yan Jue's gaze wavered slightly, but the coldness within didn't diminish in the slightest. "Who said that this king was going to sell them to a brothel?"
Hearing that, the two people's eyes suddenly flashed, their originally grey and defeated eyes suddenly lit up with a ray of hope, but in the next second, this hope was reverted back to its original appearance by Yan Jue's words.
"Tell the bawd of Ten Thousand Flowers House that this king gave these two to her, no money!"
The two of them had a mouthful of blood stuck in their hearts. They wanted to vomit, but were unable to. Just like that, they fainted.
After they were taken away, the servants finally recovered from their shock and absent-mindedness. The cold air instantly cooled down to the soles of their feet; today they had personally witnessed the ruthless side of the prince.
In the past two days, there had been someone spreading word that the mute sister's figure resembled the Princess Tian Xin whom the Duke had loved deeply. That was the reason why the Prince gave the mute sister special care.
Today, the two maidservants had obviously kicked the prince's iron plate. They could only blame themselves for blaming others for not being too merciful.
