The laws of the Great Conquest were strict and fixed in every aspect.
For example, Fang Xifu "harmed" the people of a city and the soldiers who were killed in battle. Regardless of whether he colluded with the people of Beidi, he could be punished for treason.
Another reason why Fang Qingyue spared her life was that Fang Qingyue did not enjoy much welfare because of Fang Xifu's actions.
Killing innocent people in the street, even if the death penalty can be avoided, is a crime that cannot be forgiven even if one is alive.
The people were timid and did not dare to report it, but Shen Yuhan had seen it with his own eyes, so naturally he would not allow Shen Qiu Nian to act so recklessly.
Shen Qiunian looked at Shen Yuhan deeply, but was ultimately afraid of the power behind Shen Yuhan, so he could only leave in disgrace.
Shen Yuhan turned around to look at Fang Qingyue, who had already gotten up from the ground.
Deep finger marks were left on her originally fair neck, which had almost turned purple and looked particularly terrifying.
Fang Qingyue seemed to be completely unconcerned and bowed indifferently to Shen Yuhan: "Thank you, Your Highness."
After saying that, she turned around and was about to leave.
Seeing her so cold, Shen Yuhan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
He suddenly grabbed Fang Qingyue's wrist and was about to say something.
Suddenly, someone rushed towards them from behind.
The sword carried a chilling aura, and Shen Yuhan subconsciously pulled Fang Qingyue to the side.
He didn't bring many people with him today because he had to protect Fang Qingyue, so naturally he couldn't confront the assassin directly.
But did the assassin ever think of letting them go?
He chased Fang Qingyue and Shen Yuhan all the way, and every stab of his sword was intended to kill them.
"Your Highness!" Fang Qingyue clearly understood. She hurriedly said, "You can't run fast with me. It's better for you to escape first."
As she spoke, her steps slowed down. An assassin stabbed Fang Qingyue with a sword, almost piercing her back.
Thanks to Shen Yuhan who took her around for half a circle, she was not stabbed.
However, Shen Yuhan's handwriting was scratched by the sword, and blood immediately flowed out.
He did not stop at all as he pulled Fang Qingyue forward, weaving through different alleys.
Fortunately, he had been investigating various matters in the Inspectorate and had memorized the map of the city clearly. Even in the darkest alleys, he could find a way out and bypass the assassins.
However, there were too many people chasing after him and Fang Qingyue.
Even though Shen Yuhan tried his best to escape, he still couldn't completely get rid of those people.
When Fang Qingyue saw Shen Yuhan like this, her heart couldn't help but move.
If Shen Yuhan left her behind, he could easily escape. People often say "when disaster strikes, everyone flees", let alone she and Shen Yuhan are not husband and wife.
Shen Yuhan took Fang Qingyue and passed by a yard.
Fang Qingyue pulled Shen Yuhan hard, and both of them turned into the yard.
"Don't disturb the people..." Before Shen Yuhan could finish his words, Fang Qingyue blocked his mouth and took him into the room.
This is the courtyard she bought.
When Fang Chiyue saw this, she immediately walked over to lock the courtyard gate, and then went back to her room and locked the door.
The assassins continued to chase Fang Qingyue and Shen Yuhan along the path they fled. Hearing the footsteps gradually fading away, Fang Qingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Shen Yuhan suddenly came to his senses and turned to look at Fang Qingyue: "You moved?"
He has not been to the Fang family's old house these days.
The emperor's attitude that day was very clear. If he were to go find Fang Qingyue again, it would probably bring disaster to Fang Qingyue.
Therefore, he never thought that Fang Qingyue would move to a new residence.
Fang Qingyue raised her head and met Shen Yuhan's gaze. "What does my moving here have to do with you, Your Highness?"
She turned around, suppressed her emotions, and said in a cold tone: "Your Highness, the old Fang family house was renovated by you. It belongs to your concubine's residence, not Fang Qingyue."
Now that she has moved to this courtyard and has found peace and quiet, she feels very good.
Shen Yuhan suddenly grabbed her wrist and looked at Fang Qingyue.
The whites of her eyes were even red from the suffocation she had just experienced. Shen Yuhan felt a faint pain in his heart, but he didn't want to get angry with her: "When did I say I wanted to break up with you?"
Fang Qingyue struggled hard for a few times and pulled her hand back.
"You sent Chi Feng here specifically to explain this to me, didn't you? Don't worry, I have my own integrity and will definitely not get entangled with you."
The worst that could happen is that she would find a way to investigate her father's treason on her own. Although it might be a little troublesome, it would be better than suffering here.
"Did you know that the Emperor has set his sights on you?!" Shen Yuhan didn't understand Fang Qingyue's girlish thoughts, and even though he didn't want to mention something, he still mentioned it. "A few days ago, Shen Qiu Nian and Li Junyi openly testified that there was something unclear between you and me. The Emperor hates this kind of thing the most and has warned me privately. If I come to you again, wouldn't I be pushing you into the fire?"
"What?" Fang Qingyue suddenly covered her lips.
She had indeed heard about Shen Yuhan being dismissed from his post in the past few days, but she didn't expect that she would be involved in this matter.
Shen Yuhan sighed slightly and held Fang Qingyue's wrist tightly, not letting her leave. "I didn't want to mention this to you because I was afraid you would think too much. I never thought you would still be unhappy about it."
Fang Qingyue lowered her head somewhat embarrassedly, but Shen Yuhan pinched her chin.
The two of them hadn't seen each other in the past few days, and Shen Yuhan hadn't seen each other for a long time, so for a while, he found it difficult to control himself.
It was not until Fang Qingyue felt something wet on her arm that she looked down and discovered that blood was still oozing out of Shen Yuhan's arm.
