Prince Yi, Zhao Huang, sneered, "Whether it is a rebellion or not, is that something you decide yourself? If you want to know whether Prince Wu has forged an imperial edict, come with me to the palace to meet the emperor, and we will find out."

He made up his mind that as long as Zuan agreed, he would take the opportunity to arrest them on the grounds that they were all suspects, and it would be much easier to deal with him later.

Jiang Boyang and Jiang Luofu exchanged a glance, both seeing the worry in each other.

They could certainly tell that the imperial edict was genuine. Although they didn't understand why the palace would issue such an edict, they figured it was probably because these people had already taken control of the emperor.

If they were to go to the palace to confront the emperor, the charge of treason against the Jiang family would likely be substantiated.

But if we don't confront them, wouldn't it make the Jiang family seem guilty?

Just then, Zuan's lazy voice rang out: "I don't think that's necessary."

"What do you mean?" Prince Yi frowned.

“It doesn’t mean anything. I said Lord Jiang didn’t rebel, so he didn’t,” Zu An said calmly.

Prince Yi was both surprised and delighted: "The Emperor clearly said he was plotting a rebellion. Do you think your words carry more weight than the Emperor's?"

Originally, it seemed that dealing with the Jiang family was the idea of ​​the King of Wu and the Bi family, but unexpectedly, Zu'an got carried away in order to protect them and said such treasonous things.

Then we can easily frame Zu'an for treason, which would be a pleasant surprise.

Whether it was Yun Yuqing or the Jiang family father and daughter, they immediately realized the danger involved and worried that Zu An might act impulsively, so they all tried to persuade him.

Zuan raised his hand, giving them a look that said, "Don't worry."

Then he looked at Prince Yi and the others: "I haven't had a chance to settle accounts with you all for your previous rebellion. Now that you've delivered yourselves to my doorstep, that's fine, it saves me the trouble of searching for each of you one by one."

Jiang Luofu: "???"

Yun Yuqing: "???"

Is this what you meant by "don't worry"?

They couldn't help but feel extremely worried. Although Zu'an was strong, he was only one person, while the other side had a strong and well-prepared army.

The Prince of Yi burst into laughter: "You surnamed Zu, you really can't hide your wolfish ambitions anymore, you want to rebel!"

Zhao Zhang and Zhao Quan were equally pleasantly surprised, never expecting such a fruitful trip.

Originally, because Zuan was too strong, they didn't know how to avenge their father's death. But now it seems that since the other party is determined to court death, they can use the power of the entire empire to deal with him.

The three were well-prepared. With a single gesture, their army assumed an attack stance, while various large-scale war formations flashed continuously, guarding against a surprise attack.

Now that their people are deployed throughout the capital, those families who have always been close to Zu'an have no time to come to his aid, so they can take this opportunity to kill Zu'an.

At this moment, some of Wu Wangfu's men also scattered around, subtly surrounding Zu An in the middle.

The four high-ranking officials of the Wu Prince's Mansion were stunned when they saw this. Having witnessed Zu An's methods just now, how dare they still be his enemy?

Wait a minute, these people look unfamiliar. They seem to be from the Wu Princess's side.

Yun Yuqing was both shocked and angry: "Elder Rong, what are you doing?"

The old man said calmly, "Miss, that's the question I should be asking you. What are you doing?"

Zu An glanced at the dozen or so people around him. The lowest level of cultivation was Grandmaster, and half of them were Great Grandmasters. They must have used some special secret method to conceal their aura and cultivation level before.

Rong is a very rare surname in this world. Thinking of Yun Yuqing's bloodline as a demon, he suddenly remembered that the demon princess Soren Shi had mentioned to him that there are four major families in the demon race: Yun, Soren, Rong, and Wu. These are people from the demon race.
