Chapter 217 - 216 Coup
"You really have some nerve!"
He Ying glared at Feng Yicheng, anger and disappointment filling his eyes.
Feng Yicheng could see the Emperor’s dissatisfaction and felt a bitter taste in his heart—he had actually heard the news first-hand during his travels to Beiqi. He had just learned of it in Beiqi and was on his way back when he was discovered by Qi Wuya. He had no idea how Qi Wuya had found out that he had gone to Beiqi, but he had sent quite a few men to intercept him. It had taken considerable effort to safely return from Beiqi.
But this, he could not disclose.
His Emperor was so sensitive and suspicious; if he mentioned that he had been to Beiqi, who knows what misunderstandings it could lead to.
"Your Majesty, this humble one only just found out the news and thought that, after so much time had passed, Your Majesty would have known. To think... Your Majesty did not."
His voice grew weaker towards the end.
He felt he had misspoken, implying that he underestimated the Emperor.
As expected, the Emperor was displeased.
"So you say; it’s just that my sources are not as informed then."
