The Fang family's imperial edict is a very strange existence.

The origin is unknown and the specifications are strange.

The Fang family was neither a civil official nor a military general, nor was they a royal relative with generations of merit. The imperial edict did not specify what to do, only the words "as if I were here in person", and this regulation was as clear as an iron scroll and red book.

That was a gift from the late emperor. If Fang Chengyu held the imperial edict at this time, not to mention that he could meet the emperor without kneeling, even if he asked the emperor to do something, the emperor could not refuse.

Such things naturally made the emperor uneasy, so uneasy that he opened his mouth to snatch them.

Of course, the emperor's seizure was very tactful. He attributed the previous emperor's edict to the calligraphy. In this way, he expressed his concern in the name of filial piety and gave the emperor another calligraphy. This was truly benevolent, righteous, and reasonable.

It all depends on how you choose, whether to be grateful or to be ignorant and unjust.

As soon as the emperor finished speaking, Fang Chengyu knelt down.

"It is a great blessing for me to have the late emperor and your majesty bestow calligraphy on me twice," he said, pulling out a scroll from his sleeve and holding it high. "This blessing is too great. Your majesty, please take back the late emperor's calligraphy."

The emperor was a little surprised, and Miss Jun was also a little surprised.

After Fang Chengyu arrived in Beijing, Miss Jun gave him the imperial edict. Fang Chengyu took it without any courtesy, as he never expected that he would bring it into the palace.

And it was presented so neatly.

Regardless of whether he is helpless or aware of the current situation, just take it back first.

The emperor looked somewhat uneasy.

"This, this is not good." He stood up hurriedly. After all, he was facing the imperial edict of the late emperor. "This is what the late emperor gave you. How can I take it back?"

Fang Chengyu looked at the emperor with a sincere face.

"Your Majesty, I am young and don't understand much. My grandmother always told us that we should not be too greedy." He said with some trepidation, "The late emperor gave us an imperial edict as a reward and a wish for us to live a good life. Now Your Majesty has also given us a reward and will also let us live a good life. I think one is enough."

These were really childish words. The emperor laughed, but children's words are the truth.

One really shouldn't be too greedy.

"In that case," the emperor said with a sigh, "I will take back the late emperor's calligraphy and treasure it."

Fang Chengyu leaned forward and kowtowed.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." He said gratefully, holding the scroll in his hand high.

Miss Jun leaned over and knelt as well, watching from the corner of her eye as the eunuch took the imperial edict from Fang Chengyu's hand.

This surprising and terrifying thing left the Fang family. No one knew whether its arrival was a blessing or a curse, and no one knew whether its departure was a blessing or a curse.

However, good fortune and misfortune come hand in hand, so just accept it as it comes, Miss Jun, please lower your head.

"Thank you, Your Majesty," she said, bowing her head.

…

"Why did you come with an imperial edict?"

After leaving the emperor's palace and walking out of the imperial city, the eunuch who had seen her off had already left, and Miss Jun asked in a low voice.

"Did you expect this?"

Fang Chengyu moved closer to her.

"No," he whispered. "I just wanted to be on the safe side."

Miss Jun almost laughed out loud.

It turns out that they were not grateful or respectful to the emperor, but were on guard against him.

This is extremely disrespectful.

Miss Jun looked at Fang Chengyu.

After leaving the emperor, the young man still looked curious and a little restrained.

But through his clear eyes, Miss Jun knew that he was not nervous at all. Coming to this place where the emperor is not nervous or uneasy, it means that he has no respect or fear.

Is it because he has been isolated from others since childhood and has no reverence for them, or is it because of something else?

Noticing her gaze, Fang Chengyu smiled at her.

"Nine Years Old, I have died once," he said. "Having died once, I know how terrible death is, but there is nothing to be afraid of anymore."

Yes, although he is still young, he has suffered more than many people who have lived longer, both physically and mentally.

Miss Jun reached out and patted his arm.

"It's okay if you don't take it out." She thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Are you so willing to give it up?"

Fang Chengyu seemed a little uneasy.

"I don't quite understand. This imperial edict is the emperor's order." He whispered, "The emperor gave it intentionally. If the emperor wanted to take it back, then it would lose its meaning."

He looked at Miss Jun.

"Keeping meaningless things is not a blessing, but a curse."

Miss Jun smiled.

"It's not that you don't understand," she said. "You know too much."

Fang Chengyu smiled because of her praise.

"The Fang family is blessed to have a son like you." Miss Jun sighed again.

Fang Chengyu shook his head.

"It should be the Fang family that has Jiuling. It's a blessing." He said seriously, "Without you, how can I exist?"

Miss Jun laughed.

"Others' help is only temporary. What kind of person you are is up to you." She said, patting Fang Chengyu on the head, "Stop sweet-talking. You are who you are because of you, not because of others."

Fang Chengyu laughed and nodded.

"Okay, Jiuling is right," he said.

Miss Jun smiled again, and suddenly she felt a gaze looking at her. Her smile froze, and at the same time a red figure appeared in her sight.

Outside the imperial city, the Jinyiwei guards stood there. Behind them, Lu Yunqi did not disappear, but was still particularly conspicuous.

The two looked at each other. Although Lu Yunqi still had no expression on his face, his eyes were particularly deep.

This is not a scrutiny, this is a gaze.

Whether it was scrutiny or staring, what was there for her to fear? Miss Jun looked at him without avoiding him.

But someone stood across from them, blocking their line of sight.

"What are you looking at!" Zhu Zan looked at Lu Yunqi and said in a deep voice.

Lu Yunqi looked at him.

"Now, can't you watch it?" he said.

Now? Miss Jun is no longer the wife of the Crown Prince of Chengguo.

Zhu Zan knew what he meant.

"No." He still answered.

"What's the reason?" Lu Yunqi asked.

"I won't let you see it." Zhu Zan looked at him and smiled. "Is this a good reason?"

Lu Yunqi nodded.

"Sure." He said woodenly, "Your Highness, please do as you wish."

Let others think whatever they want, what does it have to do with him, Lu Yunqi? There are many people who don't want him to have his property confiscated and his family destroyed, so what?

Zhu Zan looked at him, and the two of them were in a stalemate.

"Zhu Zan." Miss Jun called.

Zhu Zan then turned his head to look over.

"Let's go." Miss Jun said to him with a slight nod of her head.

"You guys go ahead." Zhu Zan stood still with his hands behind his back and said, "The people who are waiting for you are outside."

Miss Jun looked towards the end of the street. There was already a crowd of people there. Someone saw her and immediately started shouting.

"Miss Jun is out!"

Along with this shout, there was a commotion in the street, and even the sound of gongs and drums.

Miss Jun smiled and nodded at Zhu Zan without saying anything else, and went out with Fang Chengyu to meet the bustle. Shopkeeper Liu, Old Doctor Feng and others had already taken over with their men, unrolled the scroll in Fang Chengyu's hand, hung red silk on it, placed it on the sedan chair and carried it forward.

"Your Majesty is so gracious!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

…

The emperor in the palace could not hear or care about the noise outside.

He looked at the imperial edict placed in front of him and let out a long breath.

"Finally got it back." He said, stroking the yellowed paper roll with his hand, his expression was extremely relaxed and a little happy, "If you bring those back too, the Fang family will no longer exist."

He raised his head and looked into the hall.

"Yuan Bao."

Hearing the call, the eunuch Yuan Bao, who had been hiding in the darkness of the hall, came out immediately.

"Go ahead," said the emperor.

Yuan Bao bowed his head and replied yes.
