Chapter 69: Imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison

The cold wind suddenly blew, making people shiver.

Xie Anci circled around Eunuch Sun and finally stopped in front of him.

"Eunuch Sun can read the imperial edict now." Xie Anci's voice was particularly gentle, but Eunuch Sun gritted his teeth.

This was the first time in his life that he knelt to read an imperial edict.

He must avenge this grudge!

Eunuch Sun's eyes were full of viciousness. He angrily unfolded the imperial edict and read in a sharp voice: "Regent Prince Xie Anci, forming a clique for personal gain, intending to rebel, his crime is unforgivable. From today on, he will be demoted to a commoner and imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison, awaiting his fate!"

"What did you say!?" Xie Anci turned around and glared at him.

"This is all the emperor's intention, Regent Prince, oh, no, Xie Anci, do you still want to disobey the order?" Eunuch Sun narrowed his eyes and slowly stood up.

"Although this is a golden medal of immunity from death, it can only protect you from death, right?" Eunuch Sun smiled wickedly.

"Did he really write this...?" Xie Anci didn't believe it, but there was a voice in his heart telling him that it might really be Li Jinchen.

After all, he sent someone to assassinate him.

What else is impossible?

Xie Anci staggered back a step, and Xie You hurriedly supported him.

"Adoptive father..." Xie You regretted that he should have taken Xie Anci away earlier.

"Can this imperial edict be false?" Eunuch Sun threw the imperial edict to Xie Anci, and Xie Anci hurriedly took it.

He took a few breaths before unfolding it. What was written on it was exactly the same as what Eunuch Sun read out, and the handwriting was also Li Jinchen's.

The imperial edict in Xie Anci's hand fell to the ground. His eyes became empty and dull, and his lips trembled slightly but could not make the slightest sound. Only confusion and shock remained.

Tears welled up in his eyes, but they froze due to excessive grief and refused to fall.

It seemed as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and he could only lean on Xie You powerlessly.

"Adoptive father!" Xie You shouted in a low voice with a sad voice.

"Come here! Take Xie Anci down!" Eunuch Sun gave an order, and the soldiers nearby immediately surrounded him.

"Stop! Who dares to touch my adoptive father?" Xie You drew the sword from his waist. Even if he died here today, he would kill a way out for his adoptive father.

"Are you going to rebel too? Take him down for me too!" Eunuch Sun glared at Xie You.

"Stop, I'll go with you. Let him go. It has nothing to do with him." Xie Anci pushed Xie You away and walked out.

Xie You was unwilling to let him go and grabbed Xie Anci's arm.

"Adoptive father, don't go." Xie You's eyes were red and he shook his head silently.

Damn Li Jinchen, is it necessary to kill him like this?

His adoptive father was so good to him before!

What a ruthless person!

Xie You cursed Li Jinchen in his heart, but the reality made him helpless.

Tears finally fell from his eyes.

How about killing Li Jinchen tonight?

Xie You thought extremely.

Xie Anci pushed Xie You's hand away, "You'er, you should leave the capital and don't stay here anymore."

A sigh drifted away with the wind, and Xie Anci turned around and was resolutely held in the middle by the soldiers.

"It would have been better if it was done earlier, so we wouldn't have to waste our energy." Eunuch Sun rubbed his knees and said in a weird tone.

"Adoptive father!" Xie You shouted hysterically with red eyes.

He wanted to rush forward, but was stopped by the officers and soldiers.

Watching Xie Anci disappear from his sight, Xie You fell to the ground in anger.

"Adoptive father, adoptive father... don't go..." Tears blurred his vision, and the hot tears dripped onto the back of the boy's hand.

After a long time, the boy raised his head with a determined look.
