This matter sounds peculiar, but it is indeed true.
If Sikong Mo’s prediction is correct, the Ye Family is probably already in danger at this mont.
Thinking this, Sikong Mo suddenly stood up and said, "Quick, to the Ye Family."
He hoped there was still ti; if the Ye Family had not yet been captured, as long as he was there, no one would dare to act. However, if the Ye Family had already been taken, even for him, rescuing them would likely require paying a significant price.
After all, the old Emperor was eager to seize a handle against him.
When Sikong Mo arrived at the Ye Family’s place, Ye Jiu was already there, and the ground was filled with injured soldiers. Ye Hei and Ye Bai stood firmly behind Ye Jiu, coldly blocking everyone in the courtyard.
"Commandery Princess, this arrest is ordered from above, and I am only carrying out my duties. Please spare my humble life..." The Prefect of the capital city was also helpless. The Ye Family’s backing was Princess Changfu, the beloved daughter of the Crown Prince, deeply favored by the Emperor, and no one wanted to offend them, so the task was entrusted to him.
There’s no way around it; authority crushes those below it.
He didn’t want to undertake this task, but the orders from above left him no choice.
"Above? Who above? You might as well tell this Commandery Princess." Ye Jiu also wanted to know who exactly was attempting to lay a finger on her.
"Commandery Princess, I dare not speak recklessly, but you should understand."
In this capital city, there are hardly any who do not fear the Crown Prince, and even fewer who would dare confront or manipulate the Commandery Princess.
Since soone was inclined to kindly remind her, Ye Jiu was sensible enough to heed the advice.
Turning to look at Ye Hei and Ye Bai, Ye Jiu said, "Let them go."
After everyone had left, Ye Jiu turned and ran out.
"Jiujiu..."
For the first ti, Ye Jiu ran past Sikong Mo without expression, without the slightest hesitation, leaving his outstretched hand grasping only empty air.
A sense of loss spontaneously arose.
In the Imperial Palace, the old Emperor was reviewing morials.
Seeing Ye Jiu barging in regardless of anyone’s obstruction, instead of getting angry, he chuckled and said, "Jiujiu is here, quick, grant her a seat..."
"No need!" Ye Jiu interrupted the Emperor’s kindness, directly questioning, "I ca only to know, why did Imperial Grandpa order the arrest of the Ye Family?"
"They are rely a few commoners, is it worth you being so insolent before ?" The old Emperor clearly did not take it to heart and even spoke with a hint of disdain when ntioning the Ye Family.
In the old Emperor’s eyes, it was not worth ntioning capturing a few people; even if he desired soone’s life, they had to obediently comply.
This is the power of being a superior.
Just like the forr Liu Family, even before he received any information from the Crown Prince, still a prince at the ti, the Liu Family Head had already made the most appropriate judgnt, taking initiative in admitting fault and handing over all family wealth.
If not for the substantial wealth supporting the Liu Family, rely daring to obscure the royal bloodline, the Liu Family would have faced extermination, and the Liu clan could not have offset it rely by chanting scriptures and abstaining from at for a few years.
Perhaps to others, the Ye Family is rely a handful of insignificant commoners, but to Ye Jiu, they are her most precious kin.
Therefore, the old Emperor might never understand the anger in Ye Jiu’s heart at this mont.
"Perhaps it is not worth it to Imperial Grandpa, but for , they are above all else." Ye Jiu stated firmly.
