"Since that's the case, then I certainly won't let you down. As for the matter concerning the King of Chu, he must be desperate and resorting to baseless accusations."
"Guards, convey my decree: the Prince of Chu and the entire Liu family are to be executed in three days!"
Seeing that Xiao Ye had relinquished his military power, Emperor Wenjian naturally had nothing more to say.
After all, Xiao Ye, without military power, was like a toothless tiger, posing no threat to him.
Moreover, Xiao Ye is indeed a rare genius. As long as he is around, those countries in the Northern Desert will not dare to invade at will.
Now that he holds military power, if he were to suddenly face an attack from an enemy country in the future, he could hand over military power to Xiao Ye at any time. In times of peace and prosperity, he could keep it in his own hands and have fewer worries.
This result undoubtedly satisfied him.
Standing below, Prince Xiao could only purse his lips and suppress his resentment.
Originally, he wanted to take this opportunity to send Xiao Ye to prison and never let him get out of prison, but he never expected that Xiao Ye would suddenly do this.
Ultimately, it was my own lack of thorough consideration.
Fortunately, today wasn't entirely fruitless; at least Xiao Ye lost his military power.
King Xiao could only console himself with this thought.

"Husband, how are you? Are you alright?"
When Su Liluo saw Xiao Ye return to the Crown Prince's residence, she immediately rushed over anxiously and looked him up and down.
Fortunately, there were no injuries on his body, and he didn't look like he had been tortured.
"I'm fine, don't worry."
Xiao Ye said softly.
How did you handle things today?
Su Liluo asked curiously, and Xiao Ye told her everything that had happened that day.
"Have you handed over all military power to the Emperor? Won't that...?"
After listening, Su Liluo looked at Xiao Ye with a mixture of worry and surprise.
Without military power, wouldn't the Emperor easily crush Xiao Ye?
"Don't worry, the army in Youyun Prefecture wasn't trained by me. They weren't particularly convinced of my abilities when I brought them back this time."
As for my own army, I've trained them from scratch to where they are today. That military token is just for show; they recognize me as a person.
Seeing Su Liluo's worried expression, Xiao Ye earnestly explained the situation to her.
The army he trained himself, though outwardly handed over to the emperor, would still stand by his side in crucial moments.
Of course, this is something he won't tell anyone except Su Liluo.
"That's good."
Upon hearing this, Su Liluo breathed a sigh of relief.
"In three days, we must go together to watch Xiao Churen beheaded."
Su Liluo narrowed her eyes angrily.
Xiao Churen caused trouble again before he died, she should teach him a lesson.
*
What are you doing?
Three days later.
Xiao Churen roared at the guards who were about to drag him out of the cell.
"By imperial decree, at noon today, the Prince of Chu and all members of the Liu family shall be brought to the interrogation platform and executed!"
"The head guard said in a cold voice."
"What? Execution? No, you're lying! I want to see Prince Xiao! I want to see Prince Xiao! Bring Prince Xiao to me!"
King Xiao promised to save his life and give him money to go south, so why would he suddenly want to execute him?
Xiao Churen was incredulous and struggled desperately.
But the guards ignored his calls. One of them stepped forward with a cold face and silenced him by pressing his pressure point. Xiao Churen could only glare at them resentfully as they took him away.
Along the way, he and the Liu family sat in the prison cart, enduring the curses of the people on both sides.
Rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs and other filthy things were thrown at them.
Xiao Churen's eyes were bloodshot; he had never suffered such humiliation.
Meanwhile, Xiao Ye and Su Liluo stood on a high-rise building, smiling as they looked down at everything below.
Xiao Churen shifted in the prison cart, trying to avoid being hit by the rotten eggs. In that instant, he suddenly spotted the beautiful woman upstairs, who looked like a pair of jade pendants.
The man was tall and elegant, handsome as a god, and incomparably noble.
The woman was slender and graceful, radiant with youthful beauty, and uniquely independent.
The two chatted and laughed, clearly showing their happiness and harmony.
The moment Xiao Churen looked at them, he suddenly felt an extremely disgusting stench coming from the tip of his nose.
He froze, and when his eyes clearly saw the yellow color in front of him, he felt dizzy and almost fainted.
Just then, someone threw some rotten eggs at his head, and the slight pain made him unable to faint even if he wanted to.
At that moment, Su Liluo and the others upstairs met his gaze.
She was smiling.
The laughter was mocking.
"Hmm..."
Xiao Churen could only stare with bloodshot eyes, letting out muffled groans of pain.
He lost!
He suffered a crushing defeat in the most humiliating and shameful way!
Finally, he was sent to the guillotine like a lifeless puppet.
At noon, the knife fell, the man died, but the stench still lingered.
"I'm leaving, Luo'er. From now on, there will be no more Xiao Churen, no more Su Wanshi, and no more Su family second branch in this world."
Upstairs, Xiao Ye took Su Liluo's hand and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Yes, she cried, but not from sadness, but from joy.
In her previous life, almost everyone who wronged her received their due punishment.
From then on, all her past hatred vanished.

"Your Highness, a strange woman has brought you a letter outside the door, saying it's for you."
The Crown Prince's Residence.
Su Liluo was reading a book in the room when Ranmei walked in with a letter in her hand.
Who would write to her at this time?
Su Liluo was puzzled for a moment, then took the letter and opened it.
When she saw the contents of the letter, she raised an eyebrow slightly.
"She asked to meet me. In the end, she couldn't hold back any longer!"
Su Liluo clicked her tongue in disapproval.
That's right, the letter was written by Zi Xing. She took the initiative to ask Su Liluo to meet her.
Su Liluo naturally wouldn't refuse.
The next day at 9:00 AM, Su Liluo arrived at the restaurant as promised.
"Crown Princess, you've finally arrived."
Zi Xing sat inside the room. When she saw Su Liluo enter, she gave her a slight bow with a faint smile on her face.
"Speak, what brings you to me today?"
Su Liluo sat down without any hesitation, looking intently at Zixing.
"Putting aside our social status, in terms of relationship and seniority, the Crown Princess could actually call me Aunt Xing."
Zi Xing smiled kindly and looked at Su Liluo gently, as if looking at a junior.
Aunt Xing?
She doesn't even deserve it?
Su Liluo couldn't help but feel a sense of sneer in her heart.
However, seeing Zixing trying to curry favor with her, she didn't expose her or show her displeasure. Instead, she looked at her with curiosity.
"Why does the miracle doctor say that?"
