Didn't you say it was okay?

"I think it's not really possible for you given your current condition."

Little Red was wagging its tail happily just a moment ago, but it wilted the next second.

He lay flat and lifeless in Su Yan's hands.

Su Yan gently tapped Xiao Hong's head.

Thinking about Xiaohong's question earlier.

A face flashed through my mind.

She said earnestly

"I like fair-skinned girls with big eyes,"

Su Yan has a limited range of adjectives.

That's the only way to describe it.

After listening, Xiao Hong nodded vigorously.

Hiss hiss hiss hiss

I will try my best.

After saying that, it wagged its tail and swung off Su Yan's palm.

As they walked, Xiao Hong innocently asked Su Gu...

Hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss hiss

What kind of style do you like?

"Ugly."

Xiao Hong snorted.

I am a handsome snake.

It was still a majestic and powerful snake.

Just then, there was a loud crash.

Xiao Hong wasn't paying attention and bumped into a pillar.

"Idiot, are your eyes on something? Can't you see such a big pillar?"

Su Gu snapped out of her daze and immediately retorted.

Xiao Hong felt guilty.

I'm about to turn into human form.

I can be really good too.

Su Gu remained silent.

After a while.

"Go into seclusion and cultivate yourself properly."

Little Red swayed her body

certainly.

Xiao Hong said again

I'll be out soon.

You don't need to think about me.

Su Gu

"As long as we don't die inside, it's fine."

How can you stay in the space after you die inside?

The two, one a poisonous insect and the other a snake, talked amongst themselves as they staggered forward.

That afternoon, a number of items were found in the Ningguo Duke's mansion.

Forged ledgers, and a large amount of gold and silver jewelry.

There were also letters that had not been burned.

As a result, that night, everyone in the Ningguo Duke's family was taken into custody.

For three days in a row, there was no interrogation whatsoever.

Twenty strokes a day.

They beat him until his skin was torn and his flesh was ripped open.

I heard that Ning Guoxia from the Duke's mansion was knocked unconscious the first time he was beaten.

Su Yan attended court and received many memorials.

Most of them were speaking in favor of the Duke's mansion.

In the eyes of these officials.

The current Empress dares not actually execute Xia Guoning's entire family.

Even so, we still need to investigate before releasing it.

The Empress does not wield power.

Even the Empress's mother came from the Duke's mansion.

It is precisely the time to rely on the Duke's mansion for personnel.

How could things possibly go wrong at this time?

Su Yan looked at the names on the memorials one by one.

Let's organize it.

There were more than a dozen books, all of them pleading for mercy.

What crime could possibly warrant such a punishment? Please have mercy.

Ning Guoxia was always conscientious and dutiful, and would never commit treason.

Some memorials even lectured her.

'Her Majesty has just ascended the throne and is in need of capable people. To act rashly, to confiscate the property and imprison a high-ranking official based solely on one side of the story, is unacceptable.'

That's why they dare to be so blatant.

They were certain that Su Yan was just a woman who had never seen the world.

The idea that Su Yan could handle important affairs of the court is a joke.

Su Yan took out the memorials pleading for leniency.

It was handed to Qingwan, who was standing next to her.

"Take some men and search the homes of these people."

If anything goes wrong, they'll be locked up in jail.

Let his adjutant take his place.

Qingwan accepted the memorial with both hands and nodded.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After speaking, Qingwan hesitated for a moment, then continued...

"Your Majesty, once these investigations are completed, the court will likely be empty."

Su Yan looked up

Are you afraid of jeopardizing the foundation of the nation?

Qingwan nodded

"yes"
