After receiving the news, An Tingyu took Xiao Yunxi, Dang Yan, and Xing'er and left first. Due to health reasons, An Tingyu couldn't let Fu Zhonghan go with her, so she asked him to follow.
After they rushed for several days, they finally returned to Tianmen, the capital of Longyan Kingdom.
Outside the city gate, the guards immediately opened the gate when they saw An Tingyu and let her in without even asking, as if someone had already greeted them.
As they entered the city gate, a general guarding the city immediately approached them, but An Tingyu did not stop. The general had no choice but to follow her pace and said as he walked: "Miss An, the emperor has ordered that if he sees you return to the city, you must immediately enter the palace. Also, Prince Jing has left a message that today is the final interrogation. He will do his best to stop it, but please make sure to hurry to the palace."
"Got it!" An Tingyu replied without turning her head. The general did not follow them after hearing this, but stepped aside, clasped his hands respectfully, and watched them leave.
Until An Tingyu and the others were out of sight, the general said lightly, "What an amazing woman!"
An Tingyu pacified the four kingdoms on her own, and within three years she wrote a legend in Chen State, becoming the number one merchant in Chen State. Such a woman, let alone him, I am afraid that no one in the world would not admire her.
Chongyang Palace, a luxurious and noble palace, was filled with an atmosphere of impending madness.
Behind the palace, Concubine Feng pointed at Feng Beijian, her beautiful face glaring with anger. "If you dare to interfere in this matter, you will never be free again."
"Little sister, what are you doing? You said that Mr. An and An Chengxiang were clearly framed, so why can't you help?" Feng Beijian was confused. His little sister clearly agreed with him and said that Mr. An and An Chengxiang were clearly framed, so why did she keep him here? Didn't she know that today was the final day for Mr. An and An Chengxiang? Whether he could save his life depended on today.
"Because they are An Tingyu's family, and why were they framed? Do you know how deep the water is here? What if your feet get wet and you can't get out? Then, no matter whether it is Feng Mansion or me, how many people will be implicated? I tell you, no matter how much you like that woman, I will never allow you to interfere." Moreover, it was because An Tingyu had taken away all the people she cared about.
Concubine Feng kept the last sentence in her heart and did not say it out loud, but her eyes became even colder. Old Master An was the person An Tingyu cared about the most. She now wished that Old Master An would go to hell, because she wanted An Tingyu to taste the feeling of loss.
"Little sister..."
"Stop talking." Imperial Concubine Feng interrupted him coldly, turning back and ordering, "Without my permission, Master Feng is not allowed to leave Chongyang Palace. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!" The guards inside and outside the palace responded immediately.
Inside the majestic imperial palace, the air was filled with smoke. Long Xunyi sat high on the dragon throne, watching the two sides confronting each other without giving in.
"Lord Ning, what you said is ridiculous. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Mr. An and An Chengxiang were framed. Why is Lord Ning so convinced of that so-called evidence?" Jing Aotian retorted.
Lord Ning sneered, "Prince Jing, may I ask what evidence is? Evidence is evidence. Is it true that evidence cannot be used as evidence in front of the entire world? Then is there still room for reason in this world?"
"That's right! Prince Jing, although we all know that you have always been close to Miss An, you can't lie with your eyes open! Now that the evidence is in front of us, how can you be wronged?" Another official also agreed.
Jing Aotian glanced back at the official and said, "That's not necessarily true. If Old Master An and An Chengxiang really had made the dragon robe privately, how could they have kept such a dangerous item in their own mansion? And in such a conspicuous place, it's clear that someone must have framed them."
"Teacher, An Chengxiang, do you have anything to say?" At this time, Long Xunyi suddenly said. With his words, everyone immediately turned their attention to the two people in the center of the palace.
Grandpa An looked stern and dignified, and said indifferently: "The innocent are innocent, there is no need to argue."
"Your Majesty, I have been an official for decades and I considered myself to be honest, but I never expected to end up in such a situation today. If I am lucky enough to be alive, I hope Your Majesty will allow me to resign from my official position." As he said this, Anton Lin bowed to Long Xunyi, unable to hide the disappointment in his eyes.
"Hmph, you just want the emperor to give you a way out. What about resigning from your official position? You don't have any official position now, do you?" Lord Ning sarcastically said again.
"Lord Ning, as long as I am still alive, I am still the successor of a country. You keep targeting me. What on earth do you want to do?"
"Your Excellency, I have done nothing. I am only protecting the authority of my emperor. Your Majesty, please make the decision!" Finally, Lord Ning turned the topic to Long Xunyi.
"Your Majesty, please make the decision!" The officials standing on Lord Ning's side said in unison.
The people standing on the side of the An family father and son also said at the same time: "Your Majesty, please think twice!"
"Your Majesty, please issue an order to execute the traitors and restore peace to our dynasty!" Lord Ning said again.
"Your Majesty, please issue an order to execute the traitors and restore peace to our dynasty!"
"Peaceful? I think they are making trouble!" A crisp voice suddenly appeared outside the Golden Palace. Jing Aotian and Long Xunyi's eyes lit up at the same time, and they looked at the door with a smile on their lips.
"Tingyu, you're finally back!" Jing Aotian walked over quickly, his eyes filled with silent excitement. However, when he saw the small figure behind An Tingyu, he was stunned. "This child..."
