Chapter 239: Gossip Expert (2)
Guan Zhiyao saw Xie Yanghui staring at him with inquiring eyes and said in his heart, ’It’s over.’
Although he desperately wanted to escape, Guan Zhiyao still walked toward Xie Yanghui bravely with a polite smile on his face.
After serving two generations of emperors, Guan Zhiyao and Xin Yuzheng still have a certain degree of prestige in the hearts of the common people and officials because of their loyalty and clean hands.
When Xin Yuzheng approached him, Xie Yanghui was surprised and immediately became alert. However, after hearing Xin Yuzheng’s string of questions, he was completely speechless.
"Xie Guogong, did you really drink the blood of the Xiong Nu soldiers in Feng Tian Hall today? There are even rumors that you collected their corpses and ate them after you returned to the Jin Yi Army military camp. I don’t believe this, but I am really curious. Are you doing this because you have practiced some immortal cultivation techniques or just your hobby after spending decades on the battlefield?"
Xie Yanghui looked at Xin Yuzheng’s curious face and fell into silence.
"....." Where did he hear these ridiculous rumors? Why does he look at me like I’m some kind of rare item?
Before Xie Yanghui had time to correct Xin Yuzheng, he heard Xin Yuzheng calling Guan Zhiyao. Knowing that these two old ministers were good friends and were known for their easy-going personalities and clean hands, Xie Yanghui couldn’t help but take a second look at them.
After Guan Zhiyao came in, he clasped his hands and politely greeted Xie Yanghui, "Good evening, Xie Guogong."
