A slight blush cahe’s tanned skin “That’s not it,” she explained quickly “My grandfather wants to hold a banquet tonight, and he’s invited you and the State Duke of Prestige for a chat I agreed to co”
The , was the State Duke of Triumph, while the head of the second branch of the Qin clan was the State Duke of Prestige These two national dukes careat authority Clearly, the Qin clan was a clan covered in glory
A state duke was the highest rank of all the nobility Chu Zhongtian, as Brightmoon Duke, was a rank lower However, the Chu clan had their own feudal land and arreater than an ordinary duke’s, almost on par with a state duke
Zu An wrinkled his nose in disdain when he heard Murong Qinghe’s aard cover up Who are you trying to fool? You’re sneaking looks at Chu Youzhao even as you’re speaking! Anyone can tell what your true objective is
Does the master of the Qin clan know about Chu Youzhao’s real identity or not? At this rate, it’s not just the Murong clan’s young oing to prove costly to your own people…
Qin Zheng nodded “All right, I will attend the banquet proht”
He obviously knew the reason behind the Murong clan’s invitation He glanced at Zu An subconsciously when he thought of this, rage surging within hi Qi and the crown prince was going so well, yet this stupid variable had shown up out of nowhere King Qi’s side had suffered disastrous losses, and even a Security Officer was stripped of his important position!

Zu An felt the beginnings of a headache when he saw the Rage points He could roughly understand why, but this situation wasn’t really his fault I’ to go too smoothly this time
Chu Youzhao quickly said, “Grandfather, brother-in-law has so he wishes to discuss with you”
“Brother-in-law?” Qin Zheng frowned “When did you have a brother-in-law?”
Chu Youzhao still hadn’t figured out the situation yet She quickly introduced Zu An “This is Zu An,cut her off before she could finish “The Chu clan has already written a letter of divorce, annulling their e How can he still be related to your eldest sister?”
Chu Youzhao was i, this was indeed true
Zu An frowned Yet before he could even say anything, Qin Zheng spoke again “Young master Zu, I’ve heard that you offered up the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra to His Majesty, and were granted the title of Phoenix Man in return?”
Even though his tone was polite, it was still aloof
Since this was Chu Chuyan’s grandfather, Zu An set aside his usual pettiness and replied, “Indeed I offered up the sutra to His Majesty earlier”
Qin Zheng stared at hiain immortality in this world?”
“It does if you believe it, and it doesn’t if you don’t,” Zu An replied casually
Qin Zheng sneered “If there really is a way of gaining immortality, ould His Majesty leave you alive?”
“Is the State Duke of Triu that His Majesty is narrow- choked on his breath He hadn’t expected hiive into his emotions and make such a careless mistake “That’s obviously not what I meant It’s just that His Majesty is the ruler of an eed as an ordinary person He evity of the empire, so certain decisions he makes are excusable”
Zu An replied, “His Majesty has read through the sutra and believes that, even though the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra is of benefit to cultivators, it cannot grant io”
Both he and the ereed to this story After all, it would be way too dangerous for him if he claimed to have the true secrets to i flies buzzing around him that he wouldn’t be able to focus on hisnodded “That rant io Furtherranted Zu An the lowest rank of nobility, which proved that what he had offered up was rather ence he’d received from the palace stated as much The emperor had also specially emphasized that all those antonly discussed immortality were to be executed
Despite this, he wondered whether the e to pull the wool over everyone else’s eyes He had to discuss this with Murong and the others
Zu An noticed Qin Zheng’s flickering expression, and had to admit that the emperor’s plans were brilliant It was hard to tell reality from falsehood These people were left dumbfounded, and forced to cohed and explained his reason for co Chuyan back home”
Now that he’d expressed his request sincerely, it was the Qin clan’s turn to respond
“Back ho between you and Chuyan What do youher back home’? Besides, this is her home”
Zu An’s voice became cold “If I recall correctly, the State Duke of Triuhter relationshi+p with Chuyan’s , the two of you are unrelated How can this be considered her ho erupted in fury He was soreat authority When has anyone ever dared to speak to him like this?

Zu An reh the debacle with the e was, he could not coet angry!” Panicked, Chu Youzhao tried to mediate the situation “Brother-in-law, you don’t know everything! Grandfather has taken excellent care of us siblings all these years”
Qin Zheng scoffed “Who cares about an outsider’s opinion on ardless, we are still related by blood Things are different when compared to someone like you”
Zu An replied, “If you truly think of her as family, then why did you place her under house arrest like a prisoner? Is this your idea of fary that he alhed Do you really have no idea why I put Chuyan under house arrest? It was because I orried that shestupid for your sake!
