Chapter 1479: Original Text: Chapter 1476: Pushed into the Dungeon Modified:
“I suspect that either it was a real coincidence, and soone among that group ca back early and encountered the Beirong people, or the evidence of those five people was provided by soone else.”
Everyone was shocked and instinctively looked towards Duke Zheng, already fearing the worst in their hearts.
So people’s eyes were obscure, but Liu Yanzhen, as astute as a fox, could see through it all.
He squinted his eyes, did not reproach anyone, but quickly directed people to respond to the situation. As for those officials who now had a tendency to shirk responsibility, he instead sent them out to participate in the task of stealing the evidence and silencing the witnesses.
When the officials left the study, many of them walked heavily, exchanging glances before hurrying away.
Inside the room, as soon as Liu Yanzhen and the others left, he imdiately sent a Commander’s Seal with the secret guards. He sat in the study, ready to allow the servants outside to let in the younger generation who had rushed over upon hearing the news.
Suddenly.
The housekeeper hurriedly ran in, his face ashen. Seeing Liu Yanzhen, he dropped to his knees with a thud: “Master, sothing terrible has happened…”
Liu Yanzhen’s heart skipped a beat, his face as stern as water.
He heard the housekeeper say in a panic: “The Minister of Punishnt has brought the soldiers over, carrying an Imperial Decree to arrest you…”
Liu Yanzhen’s suspicions were confird. He let out a sigh, looking up at the gloomy sky, akin to his clouded heart.
As expected, the Emperor is involved in this matter!
Liu Yanzhen was imprisoned, throwing the Liu family into chaos.
At the entrance of the Liu Family Mansion, a crowd of common folks pointed and whispered. So, bold and outraged by injustice, even threw rotten eggs and leaves into the mansion.
The gatekeeper and other servants were having a hard ti.
When the housekeeper inford Old Madam Liu of the news.
Old Madam Liu, in her rage, shattered a set of teaware and said furiously: “These scoundrels, send the servants out to drive them away imdiately!”
“The Prince of the State was imprisoned according to the law, which doesn’t an our grand Liu family is truly in trouble. We won’t let these scoundrels walk over us.”
“Mother, don’t be angry. These people might have been sent by soone. If we want revenge, we must find out who’s behind them and make them pay.” Madam Liu, who had been managing the household for years, was less furious than Old Madam Liu.
Advising her, she said, “Arrange for soone to send food, clothes, and drinks to the old man. Let others see that our Liu family is not to be trifled with!”
Madam Liu also understood the principle that one’s glory or sha affects everyone.
She imdiately instructed her son to personally bring food and clothes to his grandfather.
At the gate of the Ministry of Punishnts’ prison.
A team of guards stood, swords at their waists, majestic and carrying a chilling murderous aura.
With two servant boys behind him, Liu Haocong ca over and first greeted the guard leader with cupped hands, “Minister Zheng, could you make an exception? I’ll just bring so food and clothes to my grandfather and then leave.”
As he spoke, he shook the purse at his waist, hinting heavily.
Zheng Hechuan looked at Liu Haocong, a cold glint in his eyes, and rcilessly drew half his sword, saying sternly, “Young Master Liu, please leave. The Emperor has clearly ordered that no one is allowed to visit Official Liu.”
“What did you say?” Liu Haocong’s smile froze, looking at him in disbelief. His heart was greatly shocked and slightly fearful. How could the Emperor forbid even family mbers from visiting his grandfather? Could it be this ti…
Liu Haocong dared not think further, his face turning sowhat pale. He instinctively looked towards the prison.
