Young Master Gao? Call me Little Grand Secretary!

Liu Guojiu felt a wetness on his hand and realized that his neck was bleeding profusely, and at the same time, it seemed that his life was slowly slipping away.

He was terrified; his legs trembled uncontrollably, his pupils dilated, and his eyes were filled with horror.

Gao Zhao's nonchalant tone, in particular, sent chills down his spine and made his scalp tingle.

He didn't want to die. He still had the best years of his life ahead of him, and endless wealth and glory awaited him. How could he die now?

Looking into Gao Zhao's calm and unwavering eyes, he began to regret it, regretting that he had come to provoke this evil star!

Gao Zhao had clearly done him no favors...

"Cover it tighter!" Gao Zhao said with concern, "This will slow your bleeding, allowing you to live a little longer and perhaps reach the clinic in time to save your life!"

Liu Guojiu's eyes lit up, a glimmer of hope flashing across them, and he turned to leave.

However, Gao Zhao grabbed him, revealing a meaningful smile, and said, "But do you think I'll let you go?"

Liu Guojiu's face froze instantly, his voice dry and trembling: "Let me go, I don't want to die..."

Gao Zhao's smile grew even brighter. He had once seen an experiment where a person was blindfolded, a cut was made on their wrist, and a dripping sound was emitted, telling them that this was their blood flowing out. The result was that the person was scared to death.

The emperor's brother-in-law is clearly frightened, which suggests that the experiment is quite credible.

Gao Zhao chuckled and patted his shoulder, saying, "You weren't like this just now. I prefer your bossy self. Try to be more like yourself!"

"I know I was wrong..." Liu Guojiu's tone was almost pleading.

Gao Zhao shook his head and sighed, "You don't know you're wrong, you just know you're going to die!"

"Gao Zhao! What do you think you're doing!" Guo Weize, terrified, grew even angrier, shouting, "The Imperial Uncle is Consort Liu's own brother, born of the same mother! Do you know the consequences if you dare kill him?!"

"At worst, it'll just be death!" Gao Zhao turned his head, a playful smile on his face. "However, since my uncle brought him here to provoke me, I'm afraid he won't escape punishment either, right? Do you think Consort Liu will hold a grudge against you? Will she make you die with her? Haha..."

"You...you're insane!" Guo Weize's expression changed from anger to terror, and he retreated repeatedly. He couldn't understand how Gao Zhao dared to do that. In the past, when he humiliated him so much, hadn't Gao Zhao always humbled himself and endured it?

How dare you challenge him today, and even try to drag him down by killing Liu Guojiu!

If Liu Guojiu were to truly die today, according to the law, he would certainly not be buried alive with Gao Zhao as Gao Zhao suggested, but how could Consort Liu possibly let him go?

A person who can reach the position of Imperial Concubine naturally has supporters in the outer court. As long as she expresses her wishes, there are plenty of people who will help her!

Moreover, Gao Qiu will not let Gao Zhao off the hook now that he has gotten himself into such a mess!

No matter how incompetent Gao Zhao is, he is still Gao Qiu's adopted son. If he doesn't take revenge, how can Gao Qiu save face?

In this way, not only would he not be able to replace Gao Zhao with his son, but Gao Qiu would probably treat him as a mortal enemy, and fight him to the death!

In his plan, he would use his status as Gao Zhao's uncle to constantly suppress him, dampen his spirits, and weaken his will, making him increasingly unbearable, so that Gao Qiu would eventually abandon him and replace him!

Because of their kinship and the support of his sister, Gao Qiu could see through these petty tricks but had no choice but to accept them.

He had planned it perfectly and had been doing it exactly as planned. Just when Gao Zhao was becoming increasingly unbearable, the plan was about to succeed. But unexpectedly, he suddenly stopped playing and flipped the table over!

Such drastic measures not only completely disrupted his plans but also plunged him into an abyss!

How dare he!

Gao Zhao had no idea what he was thinking. His thought was simple: strike once to avoid a hundred blows!

Judging from Gao Yi's reaction, he knew that this was not the first time Guo Weize had humiliated him like this!

He felt that this was a test of obedience. If he did not fight back fiercely, the other party would only become more aggressive and take advantage of him!

This is similar to when facing bullying; you should never think of swallowing your anger and trying to settle things quietly, as that will only embolden the other party.

Only when you truly hurt him and make him pay an unbearable price will he be afraid and realize that you are not someone to be trifled with!

"Crazy? Hahaha..." Gao Zhao threw his head back and laughed heartily, pointing at Guo Weize and sneering, "Didn't you want to play with me? What's the point of small-scale games? If you want to play, put your life on the line and decide the winner in one go! How about it?"

"You...you..." Guo Weize was stunned by his almost manic aura. The rich young master had never seen such a scene before. His bloodthirstiness had long been worn away. He could play some tricks and schemes, but he would never dare to gamble with someone's life!

"I...I'm your uncle, I'm disciplining you...it's all for your own good..."

"Haha..." Gao Zhao shook his head and scoffed, "Be honest! The way you are only making me think you're despicable!"

"Help me!" Liu Guojiu was extremely anxious when he saw the two of them chatting. His life was in danger!

"Yes, release the Imperial Uncle immediately!" Guo Weize grasped at this like a lifeline; as long as the Imperial Uncle Liu lived, everything would be fine.

"Why should I?" Gao Zhao remained unperturbed, sneering, "I was just peacefully drinking, not bothering anyone, and you immediately launched into a tirade of insults. This makes me lose face!"

"These are minor matters..."

"A trivial matter? Ha! I am a member of the Gao family. My reputation is the reputation of the Gao family. How can this be a trivial matter? This could kill someone!"

"Don't be ridiculous! If something happens to the Emperor's brother-in-law, it will cause a huge problem! You need to think about the bigger picture!"

"That's your big picture, not mine!" Gao Zhao said calmly, "I've already gone all out. I've even fought the Imperial Uncle. We'll die together, and nobody will survive!"

"Let me go, and I won't pursue the matter!" Liu Guojiu pleaded.

Gao Zhao shook his head: "It's too late to say anything now!"

"What exactly do you want?" Guo Weize asked anxiously.

Gao Zhao sneered, "Simple! You embarrassed me today. As long as you restore my and the Gao family's reputation, I'll let him go!"

Guo Weize's expression changed, and suddenly he gritted his teeth and knelt down with a thud, saying resentfully, "Is this enough?"

"Oh dear, Uncle, how could you do this!" Gao Zhao feigned panic and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up.

Guo Weize shoved him away and said coldly, "Can I take the Imperial Brother-in-law away now?"

"Please!" Gao Zhao gestured.

"Bang!"

Guo Weize, supported by Liu Guojiu, kicked open the door in a fit of rage and embarrassment, and strode away!

"Haha..." Gao Zhao burst into laughter, "My uncle isn't very polite, please don't take offense!"

The room fell silent, everyone staring at him in shock.

Gao Zhao kicked a shard of porcelain on the ground, pointed to the woman nearby, and laughed, "Clean it up!"

"Okay!" The woman hurriedly got up to tidy up.

Gao Zhao returned to his seat, waved his hand, and laughed, "Keep the music playing, keep dancing!"

Meanwhile, Guo Wei hurriedly took Liu Guojiu to the clinic, and the doctor's expression immediately became serious upon seeing his wound.

The two were terrified. Guo Weize hurriedly asked, "Doctor, how is it? Can it be cured?"

The doctor stroked his beard and sighed deeply: "If you had come any later, the wound would have healed!"

The two: "..."
