Chapter 72: So That's How It Is

```

Scum!

Beast!

No, that's an insult to beasts. They're better than this!

Previously, Chu Yu's perceptions of Liu Ziyue had been based solely on records and rumors, but the scene before her now ignited her rage.

To be a son yet refuse to see your mother one last time as she lay gravely ill on her deathbed! How could such callousness and cruelty be described?

After leaving Rong Zhi to treat Empress Dowager Wang, Chu Yu hurriedly left Yongxun Palace. She quickly grabbed Tian Rujing as she exited, moving so fast that even Yue Jiefei struggled to keep up.

Watching his junior being dragged away by Chu Yu, Yue Jiefei hastened to follow, but Rong Zhi's voice calling from inside the room halted him: "Yue Jiefei, with Hua Cuo absent, come help me." In his moment of hesitation, Rong Zhi was already supporting his shoulder as he walked out.
