How high the Emperor's expectations of Prince Ning once were, at that instant, equaled the extent of his disappointment.
With all his strength, laden with infinite shame and fury, he struck Prince Ning, causing blood to flow from the corner of his mouth!
Gu Jiao felt that the Emperor had never exerted himself as much even when fleeing for his life.
Prince Ning had been in a panic ever since the Dragon Shadow Guard appeared, but after being slapped, he somehow calmed down.
He casually wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, sneered at Gu Jiao, then turned to the furiously enraged Emperor and said with scorn, "Father doesn't even ask what happened, and just assumes it's my fault. Is Father teaching his own son here, or is he maintaining his imperial dignity in front of outsiders?"
The Emperor was not so vain.
