Outside Longteng Palace, Xin Lin and Chu Miaoyun had just arrived.
According to a thunderous roar.
"Drag him out and behead him!"
Chu Miaoyun staggered and nearly fell to the ground.
"Dad!"
She scrambled and ran toward the hall, but was stopped by the guards.
"Emperor, spare ! That Spiritual Food wasn’t made by ."
A man was then carried out by several guards.
That man was not Chu Tianyi, but Master Ji from Taoyao Pavilion.
Early this morning, Master Ji was suddenly summoned into the palace by the eunuchs.
He thought that this ti, he was really going to rise to prominence, but little did he know, Master Ji’s joy lasted only monts.
Emperor Longteng had him make so Spiritual Food, and Master Ji did his best, but Emperor Longteng beca furious, accusing him of deceiving the Emperor and imdiately ordered him to be dragged out and beheaded.
Master Ji died without understanding how he had deceived the Emperor.
That Four-star Spiritual Food wasn’t made by him.
But when the Emperor asked him who made it, he didn’t know either.
He only knew that it was crafted by an expert hired by the boss.
Whether that expert was thin or plump, male or female, Master Ji couldn’t say at all.
He even suspected that he might have been the ghost of Master Ji.
This claim should have been better left unsaid; once voiced, it further angered Emperor Longteng who first ordered a severe beating of Master Ji, then his execution.
"Help... Xin Lin... help ..."
Master Ji, being dragged out, still sought help from Xin Lin.
Xin Lin, however, didn’t even spare him a glance.
Behind, a scream followed, and Xin Lin’s eyes darkened slightly, contemplating.
"Master Ji, I have only just begun avenging you. If you have a spirit in Heaven, just keep your eyes wide open and watch."
Father and daughter, along with the pale-faced Chu Miaoyun, were led by the guards to the front of the hall.
They saw Chu Zhaonan kneeling on the steps in front of the hall.
"Big brother, you’ve finally arrived."
Chu Zhaonan also looked distressed; such a disgraceful incident could implicate all of Chu Mansion.
The only hope was to rely on Chu Beiqing.
Chu Beiqing, however, didn’t even look at Chu Zhaonan, just held onto his daughter.
"Darling... don’t go... we are going... to catch shrimp..."
"Dad, I’ll take you to catch shrimp in a bit, but first, let’s take care of business."
Xin Lin said with a smile.
"Big brother?"
Chu Zhaonan tried again, calling out to Chu Bei.
Silly Chu seed as if he hadn’t heard.
Seeing this, Chu Zhaonan knew the only option left was to plead with Xin Lin.
"Great-niece, you’ve arrived. Please let your father go in and beg the Emperor to spare your second uncle this ti."
Chu Zhaonan looked at Xin Lin, and for so reason, seeing Xin Lin’s smiling face made him feel a sudden chill running up his spine.
After not seeing her for months, why did he feel this niece of his seed more unfathomable than ever?
"Second uncle? Did I hear that wrong? I and the Chu Mansion have split. When we separated, it was made clear, from now on, we are like water not interfering with river water."
Xin Lin said nonchalantly.
After the split, the people from Chu Mansion hadn’t cared about their life or death at all.
Not to ntion, she had also learned that the poison in her father’s body was related to Chu Tianyi, and whether it’s connected to other mbers of the Chu Mansion still needs investigating.
One can’t eat to beco fat in one bite; those who hard her dad, she wouldn’t let any of them off.
