Once only the two of them were left in the hall, he slightly sobered up and whispered, "Brother Zhou, now that no one is here, speak freely if there is something you wish to discuss."
Zhou Qing did not speak directly but instead transmitted his voice, "Indeed, there is something I am unsure whether I should mention."
Xuanyuan Yichen's hand holding the pot paused slightly.
If Zhou Qing acted with such caution, it must not be a trivial matter.
He nodded calmly, "Between you and me, there's no need for formalities."
"If the Taiqing Sect had not precisely avoided the trap set by Princess Consort Ying and the Liu Family, the death of the fifth Brother would likely have been blamed on me, and I might still be under Father Emperor's scrutiny."
Zhou Qing pondered for a moment, then transmitted his voice again, "To be honest, I came to the Imperial City this time initially to seek our senior brother, but I heard of the Nangong Family's incident... Your Highness should know what I mean."
