Anger points from Zhao Yan: +299 +299 +299...
He suppressed his anger and said in a deep voice, "Fine, since you've vented your anger today, I'll take the Jiang family members with me."
He immediately ordered his men to take all the members of the Jiang family away, as for Jiang Luofu...
He glanced longingly at her beautiful legs in black stockings, but ultimately gave up on his plan to capture her.
It's not that I'm afraid of him, it's just that there's no need for it.
Seeing this, Jiang Luofu became anxious. Zu An gently patted her shoulder to signal her not to rush, and then said, "You can't take the Jiang family members with you."
King Wu was furious upon hearing this: "Regent, I have already given you enough face, don't go too far!"

"I don't need your face, and I don't need to give you face either," Zu An said coldly.
He seemed to be one of the masterminds behind the previous upheavals in the capital, so there was no need to give him a friendly look.
Now I'm just waiting to figure out the whole story before I settle accounts with these people.
"You!" King Wu's face instantly turned bright red. In front of so many people, this guy didn't give him any face at all!
You should know that during this period, he was very proud and arrogant in the capital. He could stomp his foot and the whole capital would tremble. Almost all the powerful families had to watch their faces and act accordingly, and they all came to curry favor with him. His temper was already quite high at this time.

Seeing this, his face darkened: "Do you know that defying an imperial edict is the same crime as treason?"
"Lord Jiang is universally acknowledged as upright and honest, and utterly loyal to the court. How could he possibly plot a rebellion? Either a treacherous person has offered slanderous words that have confused the emperor in the palace, or the emperor has simply lost his mind," Zu An said coldly.
At this moment, Jiang Boyang gradually woke up with the help of Zu An's elixir and vital energy. Upon seeing this scene, he became quite emotional. If Zu An had not arrived in time, the entire Jiang family would probably have been finished.
"How dare you utter such treasonous words!" The crowd erupted in uproar. King Wu was both surprised and delighted. This man had really become arrogant, daring to say that the emperor was confused.
Yun Yuqing was also somewhat worried. This man might have spoken carelessly in his anger, and tomorrow, countless officials in the court would likely impeach him because of this.
Zu An ignored him and helped Jiang Boyang up before saying, "Leave the Jiang family here. I will go to the palace to meet the Emperor later to find out everything."
The King of Wu's expression changed, and he finally laughed: "Since the Regent insists on defying the imperial edict to protect the Jiang family, then he can explain it to the Emperor himself later."
This man is so arrogant that he made such a mistake. When the time comes, the condemnation from all the officials will be enough to make him suffer.
As for himself, he would take this opportunity to go back and discuss with all parties, and gather more experts to deal with him.
Zuan's previous record of dominating the capital was truly astonishing. Although he brought a large number of men today, he was not confident of victory.
Besides, why should I risk my life fighting them while those other guys get the benefit?
Thinking about this, he calmed down a lot and ordered his men to release the Jiang family members.
Then he gestured to Yun Yuqing, "Your Highness, it's time to go."
He called out like that on purpose to remind her of her identity, since in everyone's eyes she was still the Princess Consort of Wu.
Although Yun Yuqing was unwilling, she couldn't refuse in front of everyone, so she gave Zu An an apologetic look.
Just as she was about to take her leave, she heard Zu An open his arms and say, "Yuqing, come here to me."
King of Wu: "???"
