Xie Guangling went home and handed the letter to Prime Minister Xie, who was furious after reading the letter.
"If I were to be framed and condemned to eternal infamy, I would be ashamed to face the ancestors of the Xie family. I will remember the Eighth Prince's kindness."

What's more, the person involved now is just a mere Minister of Works.
When this news from the previous dynasty reached the harem, Qu Zhaoyue was dumbfounded.
How could anyone commit treason in advance?

What unexpected incident happened?
