It must have been damaged by the Soul-Hooking Iron Chain during the fight with the Embroidered-Robed Envoy.
Zuan was filled with regret. If he had known this would happen, he should have put it back into the Glass Pearl after using it last time.
He tried to call out to Chu Chuyan, but the broken audio-visual mirror did not respond at all, clearly it was completely damaged.
Is this the end for me?
Meanwhile, on the other side, King Liang had already led his men to the Chu family without stopping.
Chu Zhongtian and Qin Wanru came out to greet them upon hearing the news: "Why has Your Highness returned?"
Not long ago, King Liang first came to the Chu family to read out the imperial edict and lift the blockade against the Chu family before he went to the Sang family.
After being exonerated, Chu Zhongtian and his wife worked with General Liu Yao to complete the formalities while also settling their frightened family members.
King Liang sneered, "You two are asking questions you already know the answer to. Just now, those Red Robe Army soldiers were trying to defy the imperial decree and fight us. If I'm not mistaken, they should have already returned to inform you."
Chu Zhongtian's expression changed, and he said in a deep voice, "We did receive some news just now, but we still find it hard to believe. Is there some misunderstanding? Zu'an and the Emperor have no connection, so how could he steal the Emperor's things?"
Prince Liang snorted coldly and pointed at the embroidered-robed messengers beside him, saying, "You, Lord Mingyue, surely recognize their identities. His Majesty has even sent out embroidered-robed messengers; how could they be fake? As for what exactly they stole, that is a royal secret, and I must refrain from revealing it to outsiders."
Chu Zhongtian's expression shifted between light and dark, clearly still trying to figure out what Zu'an had done to offend the Emperor.
However, Qin Wanru, who was standing to the side, was not having it: "This is simply outrageous! They've been using all sorts of dirty tricks against our Chu family lately, and now that they're about to fail, they've come up with this ridiculous excuse to target our Chu family's son-in-law? Do they really think our Chu family is easy to bully?"
King Liang's face darkened: "What, is Lady Chu planning a rebellion?"
"Don't try to scare me with this talk of rebellion. Didn't the late emperor seize the throne through a rebellion?" Qin Wan waved her hand, clearly exasperated. "Everything comes down to reason. Since you're disregarding the rules, don't blame us for overturning the table. Let's see how you explain yourselves to the world then! Where is the Red Robe Army?"
"Here!" Countless soldiers in red robes emerged from the shadows and surrounded King Liang and his entourage.
