Chapter 166



"Pfft!!!" A mouthful of tea was spat out.

It sprayed right onto Doctor Sun's face, leaving him looking quite disheveled, with a few tea leaves still on his face.

"Cough cough cough!!!" Nangong Anren never dreamed that he would choke on a mouthful of tea.

"Your Highness, are you alright?"

"You idiots."

He gripped Saren's clothes tightly and asked, "What did you just say?"

"Since the monarch is missing, I suspect that the monarch may have stolen this letter!"

Nangong Anren sat on the steps, looking somewhat dejected.

"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Doctor Sun asked.

The tea leaves on the eyebrows look a bit out of place.

He suddenly laughed, and Saren asked with some concern, "Your Highness, are you alright?"

He said, "Hmph, it seems everything is coming to an end!"

Saren was the first to understand what he meant and asked in return, "The Crown Prince wants to raise an army?"

He stood up, dusted off his clothes, and ordered, "Go and see how Prime Minister Su is going to arrange things?"

"yes."

...

At the same time, papers fluttered down from the sky above Lingqi.

To clear her father's name, Su Wan'er threw herself into Ye Liming's arms and cried, "Your Majesty, my father would never do such a thing."

"Your Majesty, please, for the sake of our unborn child, clear my father's name."

"Your Majesty, you must not put the Emperor in a difficult position."

"Since someone is deliberately trying to ruin my reputation, I believe Heaven will be merciful and will surely restore my innocence."

Watching the father and daughter act, Ye Liming felt as if his eyes and ears had been severely injured.

A hint of impatience flashed across his face, but then he smiled and lifted her chin, saying, "My beloved, do not be sad. Prime Minister Su's loyalty is as clear as day. How could I let him be disheartened?"

Upon hearing this, Su Wan'er immediately smiled, a tear from her eyelashes sliding down her cheek and onto the ground, making her look pitiful.

At this moment, General Zhenyuan said, "Your Majesty, this is the will of Heaven! Heaven is hinting at something!"

Such passion was met with a counter-argument from Prime Minister Su: "Is General Zhenyuan saying that the Emperor is wrong?"

"Could it be that General Zhenyuan has ulterior motives?"

General Zhenyuan served as an official for decades and made many military achievements. Ye Lisheng also benefited from his teachings to achieve such success.

"Your Majesty, my loyalty is plain to see."

"General Zhenyuan, why don't you take some time to rest?"

General Zhenyuan initially thought he had misheard and asked, "Your Majesty?"

"General Zhenyuan, please hand over the military tally!" Ye Liming said coldly.

His heart sank to the bottom.

Despite their passion and resentment, they had no choice but to hand over the military tally.

"Your Majesty, I am not reconciled! I am not reconciled!!!"

Seeing his face streaked with tears, Ye Liming's face remained expressionless, but his hands clenched tightly together.

Looking at the military tally, a strange light flashed in Su Wan'er's eyes.

"Your Majesty, someone needs to take possession of this military tally!"

"Oh, then who does my beloved concubine think would be suitable to entrust this task to?"

She chuckled dryly and said, "Your Majesty is too kind. I'm sure Your Majesty knows better than I do who it is."

"but--"

She changed the subject and said, "The Emperor still needs to entrust the task to the people he trusts most!"

At dawn, Ye Liming's two pitch-black eyes darted back and forth, as unfathomable as a deep, icy pool.

"Prime Minister Su—"

He was startled when he was suddenly called out by name.

"Yes, what are your orders, Your Majesty?"

Ye Liming handed the military tally to Eunuch Song and said, "After much thought, I think it's most appropriate to give this military tally to Prime Minister Su."

Isn't the implication that you are the person I trust most?

Not only Su Xiang, but everyone was stunned.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will certainly live up to your trust."

The two Su family members, father and daughter, were the ones who were most pleased with this spiritual awakening.

Prince Yu, standing to the side, looked at the military tally in his hand, his eyes blazing with jealousy and anger.

The crowd in the main hall offered their congratulations to Su Lianxiang.

...

The Su residence.

"Father, congratulations!"

"That's all thanks to Wan'er for helping me out in front of the Emperor."

"Father, what are your plans for the next step?" she asked.

"Lan Yi sent someone to tell me that the eldest prince, Nangong Anren, is preparing to raise an army."

"And what about Father?"

"With the military tally in hand, we will be like a tiger with wings, and we will no longer be subject to others."

...

"Hehehe!!"

As I walked up to a water tank, I suddenly heard a burst of silly laughter.

Feeling very curious about who was laughing, I went over to take a look.

You wouldn't believe it until you look, and you'd be shocked to see Murong Kui squatting behind the water vat, her hair disheveled, playing in the water.

The scars on his face coiled like centipedes, making him look terrifying and grotesque!

I saw her smile at me, her eyes as innocent and adorable as a child's.

From this perspective, her scar doesn't seem so scary anymore.

"Here are some flowers for you." She handed me two small yellow flowers.

"Why are you here all alone?" I asked.

She seemed not to understand what I was saying, her eyes filled with a childlike wonder, and she said with a smile, "Go home, go home."

"Okay, I'll take you home."

Just as I was about to take her hand, I saw Lingxin looking at me with a hostile gaze.

"Princess." She placed her behind her.

"Princess, don't go, it's too dangerous."
