Xi Yu watched Liu Bei and Guan Yu act like this in front of him, and his heart was filled with anger. The flame seemed to burn his mind to burn him to pieces.

However, years of cunning made him suppress the anger, and he still looked gentle on the surface.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and said calmly: "Let Guan Yu go back to the prison first. I am tired and need a good rest."

When Liu Bei heard this, he felt relieved and quickly signaled his men to take Guan Yu into prison.

Looking at Guan Yu's back as he was taken away, a trace of complex emotions flashed in Liu Bei's eyes.

Afterwards, he quickly arranged the guest room and prepared to entertain Xi Yu.

Xi Yu walked towards the guest room surrounded by his servants. Along the way, he seemed to be observing the surrounding environment casually, but he was thinking about the next plan in his mind.

He knew very well that Liu Bei and Guan Yu were not good people, and today's scene was just a small test of them. And he could never let them succeed.

In the guest room, Xi Yu sat quietly on the chair, tapping the tabletop with his fingers gently.

He was thinking about how to deal with the conspiracy between Liu Bei and Guan Yu.

The news that Xi Yu came to the palace was like a dandelion in the wind, quickly spreading in every corner.

The servants in the palace were talking privately, and their focus was on how Xi Yu would deal with Guan Yu.

Some servants whispered to each other and whispered.

"How do you think the Prime Minister will deal with General Guan?"

Under the corridor of this palace, in the courtyard, the discussions of the people behind them were heard one after another, like a group of restless sparrows.

Liu Bei knew very well that Xi Yu had secret guards around him, and his every word and action might be monitored. If he was not careful, he would have unpredictable consequences.

Every step he takes and every word he says, he has to be careful and repeatedly consider.

In this situation of walking on thin ice, Liu Bei felt extremely pressured, but he also understood that for his great cause, he must stabilize his position.

After Guan Yu returned to the cell, he sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and pondered. He was also thinking about what to do next.

The night gradually deepened, and the palace was shrouded in tranquility.

Xi Yu was preparing to rest in the guest room. The fatigue of the day made him long for a peaceful sleep.

However, at this moment, a slight knock on the door suddenly came.

Xi Yu frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "Come in."

The door slowly opened, and a little eunuch lowered his head, walked in carefully, and said respectfully: "Prime Minister, Lord Liu has prepared a few women for you to sleep with. I hope you can accept it with a smile."

The palace maids who were sent by Liu Bei to prepare to serve the bed were each in a moving manner.

One of them has skin as snow and eyes as deep as lake water.

Another palace maid has an exquisite face and her eyebrows are as beautiful as a distant daisy.

There is also a palace maid who is very pretty. Her face is small and delicate, with slightly red cheeks, like a ripe apple.

When Xi Yu heard this, he was immediately furious. A trace of disgust flashed in his eyes and thought to himself: How could Liu Bei have such a dirty mind?

He suppressed his anger and said coldly: "Let them all get out!"

The little eunuch was so scared that he shook his body and quickly responded: "Yes, I'll go and pass the message now."

After saying that, he hurriedly stepped out.

Xi Yu sat on the chair, and his anger could not calm down for a long time. He was already dissatisfied with Liu Bei and Guan Yu's acting behavior, and now Liu Bei's actions have made him deeply doubt Liu Bei's character.

He secretly made up his mind to deal with Liu Bei well so that he could know that he was not so easy to fool.

On the other side, Liu Bei couldn't help but feel nervous when he learned about Xi Yu's reaction.

He realized that his actions might be a bit inappropriate, but now that things have come to this, he can only find another way to save the situation.

On this dark night, everyone is planning for their own interests and future.

Several palace maids returned to their residence dejectedly, and their hearts were filled with dissatisfaction like a tide.

One of the willow leaves frowned slightly, with a tone of reluctance: "Hmph, I thought I could climb up to the prime minister's high branch and get rid of this dull and boring day from now on. Who would have thought that I would be rejected so mercilessly?"

Another beautiful palace maid sighed, her eyes full of loss: "We dressed up carefully and looked forward to it, but ended up like this. This prime minister is really elusive."

A smart palace maid next to her bit her lip and analyzed: "Maybe the Prime Minister doesn't like this arrangement, or maybe we are not outstanding enough. But how many opportunities can we have in this palace?"

A few people said and said, complaining about the injustice of fate. The longing in their hearts turned into bubbles at this moment, leaving only endless melancholy and confusion, which spread in this cold residence.

A trace of resentment flashed in the eyes of the palace maid who spoke first: "Then the lord Liu Bei is too. How could he send us here so hastyly, and he didn't consider the Prime Minister's preferences."

Another palace maid shook her head helplessly: "We are just duckweeds in this palace, and our destiny is controlled by others. I thought I could seize a little opportunity to change my destiny this time, but I didn't expect it to be a slight joy."

The few people fell into silence. They knew in their hearts that their future was full of uncertainty in this treacherous palace. But despite this, they still had a glimmer of hope in their hearts, hoping to one day get rid of this helpless fate and find their own world.

Xi Yu was lying on the bed. It was supposed to be a quiet night, but he was not sleepy at this moment.

He tossed and turned, and his mind was full of thoughts. When he thought of Liu Bei's various actions, he was so angry that he was so angry.

However, after a while, he suddenly smiled.

The smile seemed a little mysterious in the dark, as if a cunning fox had found its prey.

Xi Yu thought to himself: Humph, Liu Bei, do you think this will succeed easily? I have already come up with a wonderful idea.

He couldn't wait to see the morning court the next day, and saw Liu Bei's panicked expression.

He closed his eyes and tried to calm down his mood, trying to get himself asleep so that he could recover his energy to meet the challenge of the next day.

But various pictures kept appearing in his mind, making him unable to calm down.

The moonlight shines on the ground like a piece of silver frost.

Fangjun Royal Palace, this former Fang Kingdom Palace, still exudes an ancient and solemn atmosphere.

The majestic palace buildings and exquisite carved beams and painted buildings all tell the glory of the past.

The habit of morning court has always been preserved here.

Early in the morning, Xi Yu got up.

His face was cold, like an inviolable mountain.

He found a servant and ordered: "Go and notify Liu Bei that this Prime Minister will attend the morning court today."

The attendant took the order and left.

Liu Bei was sitting in the study, holding a book in his hand, but his mind was a little erratic.

At this time, a servant hurriedly reported that Prime Minister Xi Yu was going to participate in the morning court.

When Liu Bei heard this, he was stunned and the book in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Is Xi Yu going to deal with Guan Yu's affairs in the morning court?

But since the Prime Minister wants to participate in the morning court, he cannot refuse.

In the palace, the atmosphere is solemn.

The ministers lined up on both sides, quietly waiting for the beginning of the morning court.

Liu Bei has always sat in the front chair, but today he announced that the Prime Minister would attend. The ministers were surprised and whispered, whispering to the sudden change.

After a while, Xi Yu arrived and saw him walking in a dragon and tiger steps, with a majestic expression.

Everyone hurriedly saluted. Liu Bei smiled and stood up, stretched out his hand and signaled: "Prime Minister, please sit down quickly. Today, the prime minister should sit upright."

Xi Yu sat down with a serious expression and said slowly: "I came here only after receiving Liu Bei's letter. I didn't expect Guan Yu to do such a thing as worse than a beast."

His voice echoed in the court, with a little anger and disappointment.

After hearing this, the ministers looked at each other, but they didn't dare to say anything. Some people lowered their heads and their eyes flashed, as if they were thinking about how to deal with this awkward situation; some people pursed their lips, frowned, and looked worried; some people secretly raised their eyes to observe the expressions of Liu Bei and Xi Yu, and they didn't dare to show off.

The whole court fell into a dead silence, and only Xi Yu's words seemed to be echoing in the air, which made everyone breathless.

Liu Bei secretly speculated that Xi Yu would definitely seek everyone's opinions next.

Recently, I have become very powerful in Fangjun. Everyone will definitely support me and let Guan Yu stay in jail.

He thought secretly in his heart, but his face was silent. His eyes seemed calm, but in fact he had a hidden cleverness.

When Xi Yu saw that everyone was silent, he sneered in his heart.

He thought to himself: "These timid guys, no one dared to say anything." But his face still maintained a serious expression.

So he proposed: "Guan Yu was extremely guilty, so it would be better to be killed directly." His voice was cold and decisive, as if this was a foregone conclusion.

Next, everyone was shocked when they heard Xi Yu say that he would directly kill Guan Yu.

The ministers raised their heads, whose originally lowered heads, their eyes widened, their mouths slightly opened, and their faces were full of disbelief.

Liu Bei became panicked, his face turned pale in an instant, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

The originally clenched fist unconsciously released, his body trembled slightly, and his voice became trembling: "This...this is not possible!"

Then he began to kneel down and said in tears: "Prime Minister, although Guan Yu is guilty, he will not die!"

Liu Bei's knee hit the ground hard, his eyes full of begging.

Xi Yu shook his head and said with a firm look on his face: "If ordinary people make such a mistake, they will not die, but Guan Yu must not make it. I have a special love for Guan Yu, and he should set an example. Now that he has made such a big mistake, if he is not punished seriously, how can he correct the national law and how can he convince the public?"
