His gaze fell on Prince Duan, and the corner of Wang Junze's mouth revealed a barely perceptible sneer.
From a very early time, Wang Junze did not have a great liking for this Prince Duan. It was only because he had formed a deadly enmity with Prince Yu that he had no choice but to cooperate with the other side.
Since entering the capital, every action Wang Junze took was of great benefit to Prince Duan. As long as Wang Junze was alive, Prince Duan would continue to reap endless benefits. Even for this alone, Prince Duan should have been trying to protect Wang Junze.
However, as soon as the Emperor merely hinted at the idea of killing Wang Junze, this Prince Duan abandoned Wang Junze without hesitation and even kicked him when he was down.
This was no longer a matter of being harsh and unkind; it was a matter of having no backbone.
