~6 min read 1,003 words

The Emperor certainly cannot protect him.

He might even discard him like a pawn!

Jia Hui would never do such a foolish thing.

Therefore, Jia Hui treated Xu Lingyi's words as nothing more than flatulence.

And after Liu Fang had the three men, including Xia Shouzhong, to back him up,

he immediately felt he was capable again!

He immediately shouted arrogantly: "Where is Jia Hui? Where is Jia Hui?"

"Three quarters of an hour have passed, have you found it yet?"

"If that's not enough, I'll give you another hour! But if you can't find it, hmph! I will definitely impeach you to the Retired Emperor and the Emperor for acting recklessly and harming loyal officials!"

Before long, they rushed to the backyard.

Seeing them.

Wu Siyue was still relatively calm.

Gao Hui, a young lady of a prominent family, had never seen such a scene before!

She was so scared she was about to cry!

She felt some regret!

Why didn't she listen to Jia Hui and follow him all the way here!

Now look at this!

"Oh no, oh no, they wouldn't take me and Jia Hui as accomplices and arrest us, would they?"

Gao Hui was anxious beyond words.

Yet, even at this moment, Gao Hui had no intention of slipping away alone.

Her pair of beautiful eyes watched Jia Hui, who walked out of a storeroom alone, calm and composed in the face of danger!

"But if I were to be imprisoned with him, then it seems it wouldn't matter."

She muttered to herself in a low voice.

No one else heard these words.

Wu Siyue, being close by, did hear them.

She looked at this niece of the Virtuous Consort, the eldest daughter of the Gao family.

Finally, she shook her head.

She said nothing.

"Swish!"

And seeing Feng Tang and the others appear with troops.

The ten Bingzhou Wolf Riders.

As well as Zang Ba, who had already returned, immediately drew their weapons with a portion of their loyal subordinates!

Xu Lingyi's confidant Lin Bo and the others saw this and subconsciously drew their weapons in tension!

Jia Hui smiled and said: "Put them all away. We are all imperial officials working for the court and the country; there is no need to cross swords!"

"Yes!"

Zang Ba and the others immediately sheathed their blades!

Orders were obeyed and prohibitions were enforced!

This scene made the eyes of Xu Lingyi, Wu Youjue, and others light up!

Even Xia Shouzhong and the others couldn't help but secretly praise them as elite!

Feng Tang couldn't help but look at this so-called Great Gan God of War with new eyes!

He had recently heard often of Jia Hui's ferocity.

He didn't expect him to be so skilled at leading troops!

His gaze held some appreciation.

But appreciation was appreciation; he was extremely dissatisfied with Jia Hui for opposing their founding lineage!

"Jia Hui, how much longer do you intend to make trouble?"

Feng Tang addressed him by his full name.

He was an elder, a veteran, and a high-ranking military general.

It was not inappropriate to address Jia Hui by his name.

Except for Xia Shouzhong and his son Feng Ziying.

Feng Tang and Gao Sheng recognized Jia Hui because they had both met him in the imperial court.

So it was not strange that they recognized him.

Jia Hui feigned confusion: "General Feng, what do you mean by this? What do you mean by how much longer I intend to make trouble? I am currently handling affairs for the Emperor and the court. Someone is plotting treason, and I am merely performing my duty faithfully..."

Gao Sheng: "That sounds nice, but now that you can't find the evidence of the crime, we will not let you off lightly!"

Liu Fang gave a ferocious smile: "Jia Hui! Now let's see how you die!"

Feng Tang's gaze was cold, as if he wanted to take action.

To arrest Jia Hui!

Jia Hui said indifferently: "Who said I couldn't find it?"

Liu Fang's face stiffened instantly!

The momentum of Gao Sheng, Feng Tang, and the others also faltered instantly!

Feng Tang and his son looked at Liu Fang with suspicion.

The order they received from the Retired Emperor was.

The premise for backing Liu Fang was.

To confirm that Liu Fang and the founding lineage were indeed not plotting treason.

Otherwise, if the evidence was conclusive.

Even the Retired Emperor could not keep them!

Because although he did not want the Emperor to seize power.

The Retired Emperor was even less likely to watch his subjects rebel!

No matter what, the Emperor was still his son.

"You're talking nonsense!"

"Jia Hui, you are simply spouting rubbish."

Soon, Liu Fang shouted angrily.

Jia Hui ignored him.

Instead, he looked at Feng Tang and the others: "If I find it, General Feng, do you intend to shield the Liu Fang family?"

Feng Tang's face was cold: "If you find evidence of his treason, I will be the first to capture him, and if he dares to resist, I will be the first to behead him!"

Gao Sheng, dressed in purple, wearing a high black hat, and sporting a long, thick black mustache, coughed and said: "As long as there is evidence, as the Minister of the Supreme Court, I will naturally uphold the law impartially and punish him severely!"

After speaking, he sneered and threatened Jia Hui: "But if you can't find it, I will punish you for a major crime!"

"In that case!"

"Then the two of you may proceed!"

"What?"

"Arrest this Liu Fang and his entire family for trial!"

Jia Hui said with a smile.

Liu Fang was furious, "Now that Eunuch Xia, General Shenwu, and Lord Gao are here in person, you, Jia Hui, still dare to talk nonsense. Several lords, stop wasting words with him and take him down quickly!"

"Slap!"

A crisp slap rang out!

"Ah!"

"Ouch, ouch, you dare to hit me, you dare to hit me!"
