"lady."
Zhan Yi ran to her side.
"My dear, where is justice? Where is justice in Beili? The Beili that my parents and uncles fought so hard to protect is now in such a state... What high positions and wealth... What respect... It's all empty fame..."
"Madam, don't be anxious, take a breath, don't be anxious." Zhan Yi took out a pill and put it into her mouth, then raised his hand to help her breathe.
Madam Zhan's throat tasted fishy and sweet, and she was almost furious. Only after taking a pill did she suppress her burning anger.
Only now did she realize the consequences of being loyal to the imperial power. In the face of greater interests, the latter was nothing.
"Mom, don't worry. I will take care of the little girl's affairs. You can go to the backyard and rest first." Zhan Chi had never seen his mother look like that before, and he was frightened.
"I'm not going anywhere. I want to protect my granddaughter... the imperial power... oh, the imperial power is so disheartening, the imperial power..." Madam Zhan pushed Zhan Yi and Zhan Chi away and staggered towards the hall.
Zhan Yi sighed heavily, "To be with the emperor is like being with a tiger, life and death are just a matter of a moment."
"Your Highness, this matter is too secret to be spoken casually. If the Emperor were to learn of it, he would surely rebuke you." Eunuch Li looked at Dean Chen with a worried look on his face. "I ask you and everyone in the General's Mansion to keep this a secret. The matter of the Eighth Prince's eyes must not be spread. Otherwise, Your Highness will be in danger."
"I know. As for this imperial edict, you don't have to worry about it. I will go with you to the palace to meet the emperor." Dean Chen said.
Eunuch Li heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this: "That's very good."
"I will also go to the palace with my father-in-law to meet the emperor." Zhan Yi took a few steps forward.
"Me too." Qian Fu felt deeply resentful about the imperial edict.
"I'm going too."
Zhan Chi said angrily.
Qian Fanji and Gu Shuo didn't say anything, but both stepped forward.
"You don't have to go. Don't worry about the imperial edict. Qian Ning will definitely not be allowed to enter the imperial mausoleum." Dean Chen said.
"But……"
"Master."
A guard in tight clothes flew in from outside the wall.
Qian Fanji's expression changed slightly when he saw the person coming: "Dad, I'll leave the imperial edict to you."
"Fan Ji, Dad knows what to do. Remember not to act rashly." Qian Fan Ji guessed at a glance that something was wrong with his son.
Qian Fanji nodded.
Gu Shuo glanced around and made a rough guess.
"Your Highness, please come back to the palace with us and don't make the emperor anxious." Eunuch Li said.
"We have to go back, but not now." Sang Zhi said coldly.
"Your Highness..."
Before Eunuch Li could finish his words of persuasion, Sang Zhi turned and walked towards the hall.
"Eunuch, let's go into the palace first." Dean Chen urged.
Eunuch Li retracted his gaze and said, "Yes, Dean, please."
Dean Chen took the lead and headed towards the gate.
Qian Fu and Zhan Yi also walked away, and Zhan Chi hurriedly followed.
"Just stay at home." Zhan Yi turned around.
"Dad, just let me go." Zhan Chi knew that entering the palace this time would definitely anger the emperor.
"If you go, things will only get worse. If you want to stick with the Zhan family, you'd better be honest." Zhan Yi scolded.
His rude remarks on Sifang Mountain had already angered Shengyan, and if he did it again, no one would be able to save him.
What's more, the situation now is different from that in Sifang Mountain.
Zhan Chi watched his father and his group leave the house, raised his hand and slammed it hard on the big tree next to him. He was unwilling to accept it, really unwilling to accept it.
"Fists should land where they should, not be used to hurt yourself." Gu Shuo said coldly from behind.
"What did you say?" Zhan Chi turned around angrily.
"Yuan Yintang has left the palace."
