"Hmm? My friend, are you planning a rebellion?"
"Heh! You have no evidence whatsoever, don't even think about touching our princess."
Upon hearing this, the leader raised his arm again, holding the token high.
"By imperial decree, the murderers who harmed innocent people shall be apprehended. Anyone who obstructs the arrest shall be treated as a rebel and executed on the spot."
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers immediately turned their swords and spears towards Qinglong and his group.
Upon seeing this, Ye Qingcheng hurriedly called out, "Qinglong, Thirteen, you all step back."
"princess…"
"It's alright, you all go back to the manor first, I'll go with them."
"Qing'er, little girl."
Ye Qingcheng smiled at the Empress Dowager: "Grandmother, there is no need to worry. Since it is an imperial edict issued by Father, this matter must be of great importance, especially since it also accuses your granddaughter-in-law."
If my granddaughter-in-law doesn't go with them and cooperate with their investigation, then I'm afraid we won't be able to explain this to the people of the city, nor to the officials."
"But…"
"Don't worry, it seems someone is trying to harm my granddaughter-in-law. In any case, she must find out the truth."
After Ye Qingcheng finished speaking, she jumped off the carriage.
"Everyone, take Princess Han to custody."
"I can walk by myself," Ye Qingcheng said coldly.
Upon hearing this, the leader frowned slightly, his expression becoming somewhat troubled.
However, after a short while, he said nothing more and left the city gate with Ye Qingcheng and his men.
After they left.
Qinglong, Shisan, Qingluan, and the others looked at each other in bewilderment.
"what to do?"
"Quickly, return to the manor and inform the Prince."
"Qingluan, you escort the Empress Dowager and the Princess back to the palace. We will return to our residence first."
"good."
Qinglong, Shisan, Lengyi, and Lenger rode a carriage and entered the city first, heading towards the Han Prince's Mansion.
The Empress Dowager and the Eldest Princess also boarded the carriage.
Both mother and daughter had very solemn expressions.
"Qing'er, what do you think about this?"
The eldest princess shook her head: "I don't know either, but in my opinion, someone is probably trying to harm her."
After all, we've encountered several assassination attempts along the way, all aimed at killing her.
I don't know who she offended, but they're trying to kill her.
"Are you saying that everyone we've encountered along the way has come to kill Qing'er?"
"Yes, Mother."
"How dare you! Who is it that dares to harm my Qing'er?"
"Mother, please don't be angry. We need to go back to the palace as soon as possible and ask my brother what exactly happened. Then we can talk about it."
"Um!"
This way.
Ye Qingcheng was also taken to the Jingzhao Prefecture government office.
