"You... how dare you kill me! My father is Yi Chun, the Prefect of Jingzhao... ah!"

Seeing him lying in a pool of blood, twitching and clearly dying, the crowd erupted in uproar. The constables and yamen runners who hadn't made a move earlier scattered and fled desperately.

Zuan didn't make things difficult for them. He wasn't a bloodthirsty person, and after listening to the two women's account, he realized that these people didn't deserve to die.

Actually, the constable who just grabbed the iron hand didn't deserve to die, but if they insisted on sending him up, there was nothing they could do.

“Brother Zu, this is really troublesome.” Looking at the lifeless Yi Zhibing, Sang Qian said with a worried expression, “Although Yi Zhibing was annoying, he was indeed the beloved son of the Prefect of the Capital. Now that he is dead, Yi Chun will definitely not let it go.”

In any dynasty, the top official in the capital was always a high-ranking official of the court.

"It's nothing," Zuan said casually, then looked at the two of them with concern, "Are you alright?"

"No...it's nothing." Sang Qian's face flushed slightly, and the other person's voice was so gentle.

However, she still couldn't hide her worry. This time, so many government officials were publicly killed. It would probably be difficult to get away with this. Why wasn't Brother Zu worried at all?

Little did she know that Zu'an had weathered many storms with the demon race, and he didn't take a mere Prefect of the Capital seriously.

"I'm fine, Xiaoqian. Have you had any miscarriage problems?" Zheng Dan asked with concern as she helped Fusang Qian. The two sisters-in-law had been relying on each other for a while and had developed feelings for each other.

Moreover, after learning about the Sang family's plan, and realizing that they, like him, were completely on Zu'an's side, he naturally became even more open with them.

"Pregnancy?" Zu An was taken aback, only then noticing Sang Qian's excessively loose dress and the occasional soreness in her lower back as she stood. "You're pregnant?"

Zheng Dan rolled her eyes: "You have the nerve to ask about the mess you made."

Zu An was stunned, then remembered the enchanting night before leaving the capital. He was both surprised and delighted: "This...is my child?"

Becoming a father for the first time, I was really at a loss.

Sang Qian lowered her head shyly, her voice barely audible: "Mmm~"

Zuan was so happy that he wanted to pick her up and spin her around, but he immediately realized that she was pregnant, which was not appropriate. So he squatted down in front of her and put his ear to her lower abdomen to listen to the baby's voice.

Sang Qian blushed slightly. How could a young lady from an official family allow a man to be so close to her?

But facing this "stranger" man, she felt no resistance whatsoever. Instead, she gently placed her slender hand on his hair and instantly felt incredibly close to him: "How can you hear me so easily?"

Seeing Zu'an's joy, Zheng Dan couldn't help but feel a little jealous. If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have forced out what he had left in her body because she didn't want to get pregnant so early.

Sang Qian was quick-witted and immediately sensed something. She hurriedly helped Zu An up: "Brother Zu, I heard that the court is discussing my father's disappearance. According to the information I have, it seems to be very unfavorable to my father and you. Now that Yi Zhibing and others have been killed... Why don't we leave the capital to avoid the storm?"

Zuan shook his head: "It's alright, you all stay at home, I'll go to the palace first."

Just as he was about to leave, Sang Qian grabbed his sleeve tightly, clearly worried that he might never be able to return once he got to the palace. After all, there were many experts there, and the emperor was also there to oversee things, which was far beyond what someone like Yi Zhibing could compare to.

At this moment, Zheng Dan, who was standing to the side, said with a smile: "Xiaoqian, don't worry. Since he said it's alright, then he must have a solution."

"Dandan really understands me." Zu An smiled at Zheng Dan, then comforted Sang Qian for a few words before disappearing outside the door.

Sang Qian was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt a little sour. It was obvious that her sister-in-law and Brother Zu had been together for a longer time and understood each other better.

Meanwhile, in the imperial court, a fierce argument had broken out.

"Sang Hong colluded with the demon race and should have his entire family executed!"
