,,,
Second day!
"Damn dog servant!"
Inside the palace, Yan Fuhai slammed his palm down in anger on the armrest of his chair, his eyes blazing with fury.
Yun Hu and Guan Bao stood respectfully to one side.
In such a moment, they dared not utter a word.
Afraid that Yan Fuhai might take his anger out on them.
Clearly.
Yan Fuhai had received the news of Wei Hongfang’s murder in the street. If it were someone else, Yan Fuhai wouldn’t have taken a second look and would have just ordered his men to take care of it.
As for dealing with it, of course, it would be direct elimination.
It’s just a life of an ant; what’s there to care about?
But Wei Hongfang was different.
Although he had stripped Wei Hongfang of his titles and reclaimed his rewards, he had served Yan Fuhai even before he ascended the throne; it was impossible for Yan Fuhai to have no special feelings for Wei Hongfang.
After all.
If he truly didn’t trust Wei Hongfang, he wouldn’t have entrusted the safety of the palace to him back then, nor told him about his own vulnerability.
Isn’t this trust?
At least in Yan Fuhai’s view, he trusted Wei Hongfang so deeply, so why couldn’t he blame him for mishandling matters?
Moreover.
Did I ever say you truly represent Great Qian?
It was merely in a fit of anger that I demoted you, intending you to calm down, Yan Fuhai planned to restore Wei Hongfang’s positions once his anger subsided.
As for Yun Hu and Guan Bao.
In Yan Fuhai’s heart, they pale in comparison to Wei Hongfang, even if Yun Hu had already made it to mid-Grandmaster level.
But it’s all good now.
Wei Hongfang has thrown a tantrum, daring to kill in the street, killing a court official.
Simply not even putting his master in his eyes.
"Good! For so many years, haven’t seen beside me, always raising a white-eyed wolf!"
Such trust in him, yet he shows no gratitude—isn’t this a white-eyed wolf?
Does he really expect Wei Hongfang to reflect on himself, to consider if he’s the one who made the mistake?
Have any monarchs ever truly reflected on themselves?
Even if there’s a mistake, it’s someone else’s mistake, especially for a domineering emperor like Yan Fuhai.
Could he make mistakes?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
It’s always someone else’s fault; he’s never wrong.
"Damn it!"
The more he thinks, the angrier he gets!
Yun Hu and Guan Bao stood by for a while, waiting for Yan Fuhai’s expression to begin calming down, then Yun Hu bravely spoke.
"Not to displease Your Majesty, but that old thief Wei Hongfang used to badmouth Your Majesty often while he was in his mansion. We were insignificant at the time, so we dared not speak up!"
Yun Hu hadn’t expected.
Coming early in the morning, he suddenly received such good news.
Indeed, though Yan Fuhai was furious.
This news was excellent for Yun Hu.
Though not knowing why Wei Hongfang acted so foolishly, daring to kill a court official in the street.
No matter, regardless of who died, if Yun Hu didn’t seize the chance to stomp on Wei Hongfang now, wouldn’t it be a waste?
Guan Bao beside him did know a little.
But he remained standing quietly, not daring to speak, probably worried that this matter might implicate him.
Tsk.
If I’d known, I wouldn’t have spoken to Wei Hongfang yesterday.
",,,"
Yan Fuhai didn’t speak, only gave Yun Hu a glance.
Many times, Yan Fuhai merely disdain to say, but it doesn’t mean he’s unaware.
Does Yan Fuhai not see through Yun Hu’s intentions with his words? Isn’t it just wanting to seize the position of Marshal which Wei Zhi held?
Yan Fuhai knew Yun Hu’s ambition early on, but he never said much about it.
Merely hinting simply, to encourage him to keep striving, that his day would come.
The position was still intended for Wei Hongfang.
But now, things were obviously different.
Wei Hongfang betrayed his trust.
In that case, there’s no reason to keep the Marshal position for Wei Hongfang.
"Enough!"
With a wave of his hand.
Directly interrupting Yun Hu, who wanted to say more about Wei Hongfang’s faults.
"Find this dog servant for me, I have things to ask him personally!"
Damn dog servant.
However, Yan Fuhai wasn’t intending to ask Wei Hongfang about morals.
He trusted Wei Hongfang previously, so had no concerns, but now things are different, Yan Fuhai truly worried whether Wei Hongfang may have disclosed his weakness.
Though he only mentioned some issues with his cultivation before, not the full truth.
Yet even so.
If someone knew his physical issue, they might take action against him, precautions were necessary.
Damn it!
The more he thinks, the greater Yan Fuhai’s wrath grows against Wei Hongfang.
A servant who shattered trust deserves not to live.
"Do this well, the Marshal position is yours!"
He said this.
Yan Fuhai slanted his eyes, giving Yun Hu a glance.
In the end, it’s just a position, Yan Fuhai doesn’t care, it’s all within a word, just as he stripped Wei Hongfang’s title, he could easily reclaim what he gave Yun Hu today.
