Shen Yan ordered the palace attendants, "Put her down!"

"Yes, princess."

The palace man put Cong Xue down, and Shen Yan stepped forward to check, but found that Cong Xue was no longer breathing.

They came a step late.

"Princess, what should we do now?" the palace man asked.

Shen Yan's eyes were cold, and she secretly thought that Congxue died just in time. She ordered the palace people, "You guys stay here and don't let anyone else get close. I will report to the emperor."

"Yes, princess."

Shen Yan returned to the side hall and reported to Emperor Xuande, "Your Majesty, Cong Xue committed suicide."

Emperor Xuande's face was full of coldness, "He is a loyal one! Throw him out and throw him into a mass grave!"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Shen Yan accepted the order.

"You Ning, continue the investigation. No one involved in this case, no matter who they are, will be let go!" Emperor Xuande's face was cold and his eyes were full of coldness.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Shen Yu collapsed on the ground. Cong Xue was dead, so she had to die too.

She was trembling, and Emperor Xuande's eyes fell on her.

"Someone is here to throw the Shen family into the cold palace and never leave the palace!"

Emperor Xuande ordered that he not not kill Shen Yu, but keep Shen Yu still useful.

Shen Yu thought she finally survived. She was relieved and breathed a long sigh of relief.

The palace servants took Shen Yu away, and Emperor Xuande came out of the side hall and sat back on the dragon chair again.

His eyes fell on Xie Chenglin, Xie Chengxuan, and Xie Chengzhi, and he said coldly, "Didn't you hear my order? If you don't take them down, they will be punished according to the crime!"

The guards were about to take Xie Chenglin and Xie Chengxuan away when Xie Chengxuan said, "Father, my son was harmed by Xie Chengzhi, and he is innocent."

"Innocent?" Emperor Xuande shouted, "Did the disaster silver fall from your hands?"

"Yes." Xie Chengxuan replied.

"In that case, how can you be innocent?" Emperor Xuande asked sternly.

Xie Chengxuan was speechless.

The guards escorted Xie Chenglin and Xie Chengxuan away.

Xie Chengzhi watched the palace attendants take Shen Yu away, and he raised the corner of his mouth slightly. The person he loved was alive, his son was still alive, and he died without regrets.

He didn't look back until Shen Yu's figure disappeared.

But when he saw Emperor Xuande, he was filled with regret.

If he didn't insist on going his own way, robbing disaster money, harming Shen Yan, and inciting public opinion, he would not die.

Moreover, according to what Shen Yan said before about Emperor Xuande's protection of him, he would be able to live and eat well for the rest of his life.

The blame lies with the Queen Mother, she was the one who broke up him and Shen Yu.

He admitted that he had a different purpose in approaching Shen Yu at first, because he was interested in the Queen Mother behind her.

But as the two got along, he gradually fell in love with Shen Yu and gave his sincerity.

Originally he should have a happy home, but now, he has nothing.

He knelt down with a thud and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Father!"

Emperor Xuande frowned, "I am not your father!"

"I was wrong!" Xie Chengzhi burst into tears, his eyes full of sorrow and regret, "Your Majesty, the common people have let down your love, and the common people know they are wrong!"

Emperor Xuande looked at Xie Chengzhi. At this moment, he felt that his protection of Xie Chengzhi all these years was worth it.

He always regarded Xie Chengzhi as his son, but until Xie Chengzhi died, he would not be able to treat the people of the world.

He is an emperor first, and then a father.

"Your Majesty, please take care!" Xie Chengzhi snatched the sword from the guard's hand, placed it across his neck, and cut it hard.

In an instant, blood flew out and splashed all over the floor.

Immediately afterwards, there was a clang sound, the sword fell to the ground, and the man fell backward to the ground.
