If Shen Yu loses this battle, she will only be accused of framing Yan Wang. If she loses, she will definitely be beheaded.

She leaned down slightly and pleaded in a low voice, "Sister Chenyu, Hongyu is gambling with her life. I beg you, Sister Chenyu, to give Hongyu a way out."

And so, Chenyu and Hongyu, accompanied by four men, arrived at Qingbai Street, followed by the Empress's four personal guards.

Hongyu walked ahead; she was going to find Brother Zhao, the beggar, at the entrance of Xu's restaurant.

Brother Zhao and Shenyu were old acquaintances. Shenyu would always spend money to ask Brother Zhao to help her find people, find things, and run errands. Hongyu knew about this, which was also the reason why she dared to lie to the Empress.

Just now, Hongyu took these four beggars to the Zuo family. The Empress wants to verify their identities, and I hope Brother Zhao can help identify them and see if they are members of the Beggars' Clan."

Brother Zhao looked at the four slender men with a puzzled expression, naturally not recognizing them.

He was about to deny it when he saw the royal guards behind Shen Yu. Fearing he might ruin Shen Yu's plans, he looked at Shen Yu for instructions, "Miss Shen Yu, this..."
