"Yanyan." An Ruhe shouted coldly: "What nonsense are you talking about? Get back."

An Jinshu refused to leave: "I believe Adi is innocent. Dad, Adi is innocent."

If others didn't know it, how could An Jinshu not know it? The matter was a foregone conclusion and she could only try her best to save it.

Li Fengcheng, however, ignored her and never even took his eyes away from the person in the distance.

He crossed An Jinshu and hurried towards him as if he was panicking and anxious.

The guards behind him also quickly followed.

But just when everyone except An Jinshu thought that Li Fengcheng was going to arrest him, they saw that the eunuch Li Fengcheng, who was famous in front of His Majesty and the chief chamberlain, who only kneeled down to Your Majesty and even had to show courtesy to the concubines in the harem, actually stood up straight. Kneel down towards the other party.

At this moment, apart from the sound of the wind in the hall, there was only one sentence that echoed in everyone's ears.

"I have seen His Highness the Crown Prince. I came late and made His Highness the Crown Prince suffer!"

Someone dropped something in someone's hand and fell to the ground with a loud noise. An Jinshu turned around and saw his mother standing behind them, with a look of horror on her face, and the color drained from her entire face.

And under her feet were several bottles and jars of things. At this moment, some of them rolled away on the ground, and some of them were broken into pieces.

Obviously she also heard what Li Fengcheng said. Even if she didn't hear it, she could still see Li Fengcheng kneeling to him.

An Ruhe, An Jinran, Mrs. An, Qu, and Sheng Huaian all had different expressions at this moment, some were surprised, some were stunned, some were confused, some were annoyed... They were all different, but they were all extremely exciting.

In the end, all the eyes of the An family fell on An Jinshu. It was a very strange look. It was only at this moment that An Ruhe remembered what An Jinshu had said to him.

"Dad, Gu Qingchen is not a barbarian, he is the prince, the prince your majesty is looking for so hard."

"Dad, give me two days... Nothing will happen to my brother. Dad, grandma, you believe me."

These words echoed in An Ruhe's mind at this moment, and he suddenly realized that he had wronged An Jinshu and the child.

But there is no medicine for regret in the world, and there is no room for taking back whatever you say or do.

It's ridiculous that he fights on the battlefield as calm as a crane and uses soldiers like a god, but he would miss such a strange thing.

In fact, he had to admit that he was indeed impulsive in punishing Gu Qingchen.

When he saw the letter of collaboration with the enemy, he was naturally angry, but he never lost his mind. He never made it clear to the outside world but investigated it privately because he did not believe that Gu Qingchen could be an enemy spy.

Until he saw the frivolous smoke, it was his sister. What he did was contrary to ethics and was shameful to the people of the world. At that moment, An Ruhe lost his mind in anger.

The suspicion and anger that had been suppressed completely broke out at this moment. He put the person in jail and asked him to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes. However, Gu Qingchen was tougher than he had ever seen, so he had no choice but to be whipped.

On the way, when his lieutenant came, there would only be someone looking for him. He handed over the punishment to his subordinates, but the person was careless and even mistook the poison for salt.

All of this was caused by his distrust. An Ruhe regretted it. Looking back now, all the events coincided with each other and there were loopholes everywhere, but he was too rash to convict him based on his own judgment.

Fortunately, Yanyan worked hard to save the child and prevent a catastrophe from happening, but when An Ruhe thought about how he refused to save Gu Qingchen, and even wanted to take his life with his own hands, he inserted the broken sword into it. In his chest, he was filled with regret, regret, and feeling ashamed of the child's father.

But it's too late.

Old Mrs. An fainted under such stimulation, and An Jinshu hurriedly went to help her.

Gu Qingchen also closed her eyes and fell down when Li Fengcheng stepped forward to help her.

The scene was noisy and Gu Qingchen was taken away.

An Jinshu was also taken away at the same time, just because of her remarks about which she was punished.

Li Fengcheng didn't read the second imperial edict, but he opened it when An Ruhe was the only one left after everyone left.

It contained words announcing Gu Qingchen's identity and commending the Protectorate. If it hadn't been for this, his Protectorate would have been prosperous for hundreds of years just by virtue of being the benefactor of the prince. But now everything has been messed up.

The reason why Li Fengcheng did not read out the imperial edict in the end was already obvious. His attitude was His Majesty's, and his family might be in catastrophe.

Sheng Huaian walked out of the Duhu Mansion in a state of despair. Xie was still not sure about the series of events. Just as she was about to ask, a servant stopped in front of Sheng Huaian on horseback.

After dismounting, he asked if he was a member of Shenghuai Ansheng.

Sheng Huaian nodded dumbly.

As a result, the next moment I heard the man read: "The Holy One has a decree. Kneel down to receive it."

This imperial edict was just like Gu Qingchen's status as the crown prince. It came unexpectedly and inexplicably. People had already gathered in front of the gate of the Protector's Mansion. However, when the imperial edict arrived, not to kneel would be to resist the edict. Sheng Huaian did not care about other people's eyes and knelt down in response: " I accept the order."

The rest of the people in the Duke's Mansion also knelt down to receive the order.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: the plague is rampant in Gusu, and the people are living in dire straits. All parties are guilty, and I am the one to blame. The matter of the plague is entrusted to Sheng Huaian of the Hanlin Academy to handle, and several doctors from the Imperial Medical Department are sent to go with him. The situation is It's urgent, choose a day to set off, don't delay, I appreciate this!"

"I accept the decree, long live my emperor."

Sheng Huaian took the imperial edict, and the father-in-law who read it handed him over but had no intention of leaving.

Sheng Huaian seemed to understand his intention, and turned to Mrs. Xie and said, "My mother and cousin are going back home first. I still have some things to deal with."

Mrs. Xie was worried and pulled him back: "But it's about An Jia?"

There were so many people here that Sheng Huaian couldn't go into details, and how could he tell the matter casually? So he made an excuse and said: "It's not about Anjia. There is nothing wrong with Anjia. Mother shouldn't mention it to others."

Mrs. Xie knew that Sheng Huaian was trying to comfort her, so she added uneasily: "If it's because of the An family, don't take the responsibility on yourself. The Duke's Palace is relying on you now. Do you understand what I mean to you as a mother?"

Although Ms. Xie didn't understand what happened to the An family, the palace took people away and dispersed the rest, which showed that it was not an ordinary matter.

However, the power of the Protectorate was so powerful that the emperor had to think twice before making any move. Now that he dared to mobilize troops to take people away, he probably had some leverage.

The only thing she was lucky about now was that the engagement banquet hadn't happened yet, otherwise the Protector's Mansion would be implicated in the crime of implicating the nine clans, and her country's Duke's Mansion would not be easy either.

Sheng Huaian knew Xie's worries and nodded to assure her: "Don't worry, mother. My son knows it well. He will definitely not do anything to implicate the Duke's palace. He is just going to the palace to arrange some matters in Gusu. Mother, please go back first."

After hearing his assurance, Xie felt relieved and said, "Then you should come back early."

Sheng Huaian nodded and left with the father-in-law.
