Everything was planned perfectly. He had already managed to get rid of all the servants in the Prince of Jin's mansion, leaving only the Princess of Jin and her maids in the mourning hall.

Let's chat for a while, and when the effects of the medicine take hold, I can go to my husband's tomb and vent all the anger I've felt from being bullied by Prince Jin over the years.

Who knew that, by sheer coincidence, the Embroidered Robe Envoy's men would suddenly arrive to investigate some case!

He was extremely anxious. He calculated that the effects of the medicine in Princess Jin's body would soon take hold. If these embroidered-robed envoys were here, how could he possibly succeed?

So he was very angry and wanted to get rid of these people.

Of course, in the eyes of the Princess of Jin, he was arguing his case and helping her drive away those fierce-looking embroidered messengers, so she was very grateful.

I thought to myself that Brother Daiwang is truly a great person.

At this moment, Dai Laoqi and Chen Laoba were also very anxious. If they didn't even examine the body and directly concluded that Prince Jin had died of fright, who in the court would believe them?

So the two said in deep voices, "Please forgive us, Your Highness, we will be able to finish the inspection soon."

"Get out!" The Prince of Dai was extremely annoyed at this moment. These guys were like flies, ruining his plans.

A hint of anger flashed across Dai Laoqi's and Chen Laoba's faces. When had the Embroidered-Robed Envoy ever been treated like this while handling a case?

They all placed their hands on their weapons, ready to attack.

Suddenly, the old man beside the king stepped forward, and a powerful aura rose in the room.

The group of embroidered-robed envoys suddenly felt as if a huge mountain was pressing down on them, their bones creaking and groaning, as if they might be forced to their knees at any moment.

Dai Laoqi and Chen Laoba were shocked and hurriedly ordered their men to form a battle formation, which barely allowed them to hold on.

"With Zhu Xie Chixin dead, these Embroidered-Robed Envoys are getting worse with each generation." The old man said with a look of contempt, completely disregarding these Embroidered-Robed Envoys.

Dai Laoqi, Chen Laoba, and the others were filled with humiliation, but what the other party said was true. Now that the emperor had passed away and Zhu Xiechixin was dead, even the intimidation power of their Embroidered Robe Envoys had been greatly reduced.

Moreover, the Prince of Dai was a prince, and the old man beside him was either a ninth-rank official or a grandmaster.

If a conflict were to break out, these people, even if they joined forces, would have the strength to fight, but they would certainly suffer heavy casualties.

If the matter goes to the imperial court, the other party is a prince, and at most they will be punished. As for us soldiers, if we die, we die. Do you expect the Prince of Dai to pay for our lives?

Left with no other option, the two said, "Since the Prince of Dai has business here today, we will come back to investigate another day."

The two thought that the Prince of Dai couldn't stay at the mourning hall every day, so they could investigate after he left.

Hearing that the other party was about to retreat, a hint of smugness flashed across the Prince of Dai's face. He had shown his heroic and powerful side in front of the beauty, and he was really enjoying himself to the extreme.

As expected, the Princess of Jin looked at him with admiration and gratitude.

Dai Laoqi, Chen Laoba, and their entourage of embroidered-robed envoys felt extremely aggrieved and could only walk out dejectedly.

Just then, a faint voice rang out: "When does an Embroidered-Robed Envoy need to yield to others when handling a case?"

Dai Laoqi, Chen Laoba, and the others looked up in surprise and delight. When they saw that familiar golden figure, they exclaimed, "Eleventh Lord, no, Commander-in-Chief!"

Upon hearing this, the Prince of Dai, the old man beside him, and even the Princess of Jin all looked in this direction.

Is the embroidered-robed messenger a very important person?

The old man's heart skipped a beat at first, but he secretly breathed a sigh of relief after realizing that the other party was not Zhu Xie Chixin. Apart from Zhu Xie Chixin, who was the only one he could not defeat, none of the other Embroidered-Robe Envoys were his match. Even the Gold-Rank Embroidered-Robe Envoys were not as powerful as him.

The Embroidered-Robe Envoys were only able to rely on the Emperor's past power so that no one dared to resist them, and they often bullied the weak with numbers. In the current situation, who would care about those with real ability? Besides, they had the Prince of Dai backing them up.

The Prince of Dai was about to burst with joy. Now that he could finally get rid of these irrelevant people, he could finally enjoy some time alone with the Princess of Jin.

Then another person arrived.

Why are these embroidered-robed messengers calling him Eleventh Lord and Grand Commander at the same time?

He had heard of the Eleventh Gold Medalist, the one with the shallowest foundation and weakest cultivation among the Gold Medalists. He didn't know why he had risen to the Gold Medalist position so quickly. There were rumors that it was because he had flattered the Emperor well.

Thinking of this, the Prince of Dai gradually felt relieved. Now that his father had passed away, how could such sycophants still be able to show off their power?

Dai Laoqi and Chen Laoba approached Zu An and bowed with shame, saying, "Commander, it is our incompetence that has led to this!"

The first task they were tasked with was botched. It wouldn't have been a big deal to come back and investigate another day, but the president witnessed it.

Well, it seems there's no hope of getting promoted to the Silver Medal Embroidered Robe.

Zu An didn't blame them. Instead, he comforted them, saying, "The person opposite you is a prince, and he has a master-level protector by his side. It's normal that you can't win against him. Don't blame yourselves. But I still want you to understand one thing: when the Embroidered-Robed Envoy is handling a case, even if the other party is the Heavenly King himself, they must give way. There is no reason for us to give way to them."

Upon hearing his words, the embroidered-robed messengers immediately straightened their chests, their previous dejection vanishing.

After Zhu Xie Chixin died, they were worried that the new commander would not be able to control the situation, making it difficult for them, his subordinates, to stand up for themselves. But now it seems that the new commander has an even bigger temper than the old commander.

"Such arrogance! Who do you think you are?" The old man sneered. Young people these days are getting more and more arrogant, not knowing their own limitations.

"Was it you who just released your aura to threaten the Embroidered-Robed Envoy?" Zu An asked in a deep voice.
