The eunuch was conflicted: "This..."
The Miao King said, "I'm just sparring with Your Majesty, it's not the first time we've done this, now step aside, don't spoil our fun!"
Emperor Liang threw a punch at Duke Jiang.
Duke Jiang leaped away, holding his head in escape: "Why hit me? It was just a bit of croton seeds, is it worth it?"
The Miao King encircled Emperor Liang's shoulders from behind.
Duke Jiang fell onto the desk, breaking out in cold sweat as he stared at the fist inches away.
The eunuch paused in confusion: "Your Majesty..."
The Miao King tried to cover up: "We agreed to spar! Are you looking down on me as your father-in-law?"
Duke Jiang, who had spent years matching wits with Emperor Liang, gradually noticed something unusual about him.
He leaned next to the Miao King and whispered, "Hey, what did you give him? Isn't it a bit too strong? It won't actually kill him, will it?"
"I told you, I didn't use any drugs!"
