"Gu Tianqiong, the official positions that Chen Yuan held in the past were all fought for with my blade. Your constant accusations, do you think I would still hold onto bygone affections?"
Chen Yuan truly did not want to bother with this person. The previous scolding was akin to the barking of a dog, but that didn't mean he wouldn't harbor murderous intent. In fact, he had long prepared to eliminate this person.
At most, he would give him a quick end.
"What does this governor have to fear?"
"Lord Gu, stand down."
"Your Majesty."
Gu Tianqiong frowned and looked towards Jingtai.
Jingtai slowly shook his head and said:
"You are not his match. He is here for me. I, too, wish to settle the grievances between ruler and minister, so you should step back."
"Gu Tianqiong, without the necessary strength, don't rush to your death. Your grievances with my Heavenly Demon Hall and my personal grievances with Dongfang Sheng should also be settled."
