"Those who seek rebellion will be punished by the Nine Clans, including you. You still have to stay with me on the road to hell."

"Stop having sweet dreams. You removed my mother from the family tree and severed the relationship between father and daughter. Your nine clans are just your nine clans, not mine." Xiaoying said with a cold face.

Master Cheng said with a smile: "That's just to scare her. Since I want to rebel and fail, I will drag everyone to hell. How can I let that rebellious girl go?"

"If you want to deal with Xiaoying, you have to ask whether Jiang Guotong agrees, whether Wushuang Guotong agrees, and whether Dajing Guotong agrees?"

Li Jinran's words shattered Grand Master Cheng's last expectations bit by bit.

"Xiaoying's father is the second son of Mrs. Xiao of Jiang State. Da Jing's crown princess is the adopted daughter of Mrs. Xiao's eldest son. Xiaoying also has a cousin who is now the queen of Jiang State. There is also , he is also the young apprentice of the Grand Imperial Master of the Wushuang Kingdom, and the junior sister of the Princess of the Wushuang Kingdom. However, it is such a pity that if you had treated them well back then, you would not have ended up being executed by the Nine Tribes today."

Xiaoying added insult to injury: "You looked down on my father at first, thinking he was a mountain villager. You didn't even think about how a mountain villager could be both civilized and martial, and handsome in appearance."

"People's hearts are not enough. You are the teacher of the late emperor. If you are willing to assist the late emperor conscientiously, you will enjoy endless glory and enjoy your life. However, you are too ambitious and end up with a miserable end in your old age."

Li Jinran continued to ridicule Cheng Taishi unforgivingly, and actually dared to call her a shrew and a bitch. She had never been called such a name before.

"I just failed. If I succeed, the Cheng family will ascend to heaven and leave their name in history."

Master Cheng still looked unrepentant.

"Put it down..."

Hua Zhichu glanced at the leader of the Forbidden Army. The latter understood and immediately asked the two men behind him to step forward and escort Master Cheng.

All the ministers breathed a sigh of relief. Today was full of twists and turns, ranging from ice to fire.

"The matter of Taishi Cheng's rebellion will be handed over to Dali Temple, Jingzhao Mansion and the Ministry of Punishment to jointly review and identify the conspirators." Hua Zhichu said with a solemn expression.

"Yes." Dali Temple Qing, Jing Zhaoyin, and the Minister of Punishment replied in unison.

After a joint trial by the three divisions, Cheng Taishi was sentenced to execution and his entire family was executed. His residence was raided and several ministers who had conspired with him were confiscated and exiled.

For a time, the court was basically purged. King An was willing to give up the throne in order to plead for his princess. Hua Zhichu did not embarrass him and especially forgave Princess An.

"Xiaoying, are you sure you want to stay here?" Li Jinran asked seriously, hoping that she would change her mind. She could see that Hua Zhichu only treated Xiaoying as a daughter.

"Yeah," Xiaoying nodded, "I'm sure."

"It's hard for you to get into her heart. Besides, I think he is a very polite person. He treats you as his daughter. How could he have other feelings for you?"

Li Jinran was worried. She didn't want Xiaoying to be frustrated in her relationship.

"Maybe I'm very young now and he doesn't see me as a woman. When I grow up, maybe it will be different." Xiaoying said with a smile. She lived a new life and really wanted to fight for herself again.

"Promise me that you will send me a message if you have any difficulty." Li Jinran said with a solemn expression.

Xiaoying smiled and nodded, "I will."
