Rongwang's Mansion

"Auntie, you go back and rest first, I'll wait here." Nangong Li, Nangong Xi and the whole family were all sitting in the lobby, waiting anxiously.

"Li'er, my aunt is still not at ease in her heart, as soon as Yan Rong leaves this time, this heart is up and down, you say, why did this happen, what kind of person Yan Jing is, is it not clear to the emperor, why is this kind of interrogation, at first glance, someone slandered him, and he still doesn't let people come back." Nangong Xi said with a handkerchief.

"Aunt, I think the emperor's mind is no longer the emperor he once was, at that time, the emperor naturally needed a general to go to war, but if it is peaceful today, the emperor doesn't need it at all." Nangong Li sighed and said.

"Li'er, since you came back from the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet that day, you haven't called out to your father, do you still hate your father?" Nangong Xi asked.

"Auntie, what do you think, first imprisoned me in the capital for the rest of my life, and then sent me elsewhere after death, and now I am arresting Ah Rong for interrogation, this series makes me can't help but wonder, is it that the emperor looks at us unpleasantly and really wants to rectify us." Nangong Li said.

"Li'er, in case there is a misunderstanding, I don't believe that the Yan family will rebel, Yan Rong is a general, he is the emperor's right-hand man, and the emperor should not cut off his own hands and feet." Nangong Xi comforted.

"Aunt, I'm not worried about the emperor's attitude towards me now, I'm just worried that Ah Rong will be wronged." Nangong Li said worriedly.

"Yan Rong, this kid hasn't done anything wrong, it's okay, maybe it's just a question, and he will come back soon." Nangong Xi said.

"Will it?" Nangong Li looked at the moonlight in the sky uneasily and said.

"Lord, old lady." Chu Meng stepped forward and saluted.

"Chu Ming, how is your investigation?" Nangong Li asked.

"Lord Wang, no one in the capital has leaked news, the things in the palace are not easy to know, and my ability is limited, I can't spy on the things in the palace, I can't find anything, even the ministers who were summoned to the palace today have not returned, it has been most of the day, and there has been no movement." Chu Meng said.

"I'm going to the palace." Nangong Li clenched his fists and stood up and said.

"Li'er, don't be impulsive, what do you want to do when you enter the palace now, do you want to ask the emperor for a face, if you want it, he will give it?" Nangong Xi blocked the way.

"Auntie, you also heard it, there is no news, how worried I am, instead of sitting and waiting, it is better to go and see how it is." Nangong Li said.

"The prince can't, in case the emperor has no ill will towards the general, and he is about to get better, if you go, wouldn't it be a refutation of the emperor's son?" Chu Meng also persuaded.

"I don't believe that the emperor will let Ah Rong go easily, I am worried that even Xia Shangshu and the eldest brother may not be able to keep Ah Rong." Nangong Li said softly to Nangong Xi.

"No, Li'er, the emperor is not so ruthless, don't say that the Yan family did not do treason, even if he did, Yan Rong is also the emperor's daughter-in-law, she is already a member of the Nangong family, and it has nothing to do with Yan Rong, the emperor will not do this." Nangong Xi said.

"Auntie, do you still believe in this emperor, have you forgotten what he did to you in the first place?" Nangong Li looked at Nangong Xi and said.

"My aunt hasn't forgotten, so my aunt has been refusing to return to the capital, but, after so many years, people will change, his ruthlessness was my cold heart, but now he has become a good emperor who loves the people like a son, and he will not make ....... to his loyal ministers" Nangong Xi couldn't say it anymore, yes, he didn't believe what he said.

"Auntie, no matter how you persuade me, I have to go in and have a look, even from the sidelines." Nangong Li also knew that he was in pain when he talked about Nangong Xi, so he retracted his mood and said.

"If you can go and see, you can go, my aunt won't stop you, and my aunt won't be able to control you," Nangong Xi wiped away her tears and said.

"Arrange a carriage for this king and go to the palace." Nangong Li instructed Chu Meng to say.

"Yes, lord." Chu Meng immediately went to make arrangements.

As soon as he walked to the door, Nangong Li was stopped by someone.

"Lord Wang, the emperor has an order, you can't go out." Men dressed in the Imperial Forest Army blocked Nangong Li's way.

"The Imperial Forest Army is all up, what does the emperor want to do?" Nangong Li asked coldly.

"Lord, you can rest assured in the palace, we will send all the products to the palace, you don't have to worry about life." The Guards said.

"This is not the question that this king asked, are you stupid to be this king?" Nangong Li said.

"Lord, no one in the house is allowed to go out, this is an order just given by the emperor, and I hope the prince will understand." The Guards continued to say with a cold face.

"You just came, what's going on in the palace?" Nangong Li realized that something was wrong and asked.

"The prince doesn't have to pay attention to anything, just wait with peace of mind." It's still the same expressionless, colorless voice.

"This king asks again what happened to Yan Rong in the palace." Nangong Li was furious, and directly took out the soft sword in his arms, pointing at the Royal Forest Army and said.

"Back to the prince, the emperor has explained the matter of General Yan, don't be anxious, just rest assured in the palace."

"Is she dead or alive?" Nangong Li said angrily, and the sword was only an inch away from his throat.

"Prince, if you are like this, it is really difficult to explain, if the prince dares to kill the Imperial Forest Army, are you not afraid that the emperor will blame?" The Imperial Forest Army said fearlessly.

"Is this king still afraid of you, a little forester? I'm the prince, you're just a minion, aren't you really afraid that I'll kill you? Nangong Li asked.

"Lord Wang, it's your throat if you go in again." The Imperial Forest Army also felt the sword getting closer and closer, so he said.

"That's if you don't dare, if you dare, cut me directly with a knife, do you still need me to point my sword at you, if you tell the truth, I will naturally not hurt you, and I will not punish you, but if you don't say, I, the prince, will kill a royal forest army, and the emperor will not blame you much." Nangong Li said seductively.

"Lord Wang, why do you bother, why are you so persistent." The Imperial Forest Army also said helplessly.

"You say, it's just you and me here, let your people take a step back, and my people will also take a step back." Nangong Li said.

"Okay." The Forester nodded.

In the palace

"General, please." The Imperial Forest Army clasped his face and said.

"Your Majesty, the minister has one more thing to say." Yan Rong broke away from the Royal Forest Army and stood up and said.

"Speak." The emperor waved his hand and told the Imperial Guards to wait for a moment.

"Don't tell too much about the minister's affairs, the minister believes that he can come out innocently, and naturally he doesn't want his family to worry too much." Yan Rong said.

"I understand that I have sent the Imperial Forest Army to protect King Rong's Mansion, so you don't have to worry." The emperor nodded and said.

"Your Majesty, there's nothing wrong with them, they don't need to be imprisoned." Yan Rong said nervously.

"General Yan, this is not something you should worry about, you have already entered the prison, can you still manage the affairs outside?" The prime minister said so.

"Yes, you don't have to worry about it, it's important to get things clear. Let's go down. The emperor said.

"Don't touch me, I can walk on my own." Yan Rong shook off the Royal Forest Army who came forward and said.

"Well, let her go." The emperor said when he saw that the royal guards were at a loss and said with a cold face.

Yan Rong also turned around and left, and went to the palace prison alone. This is the cell where he used to detain Chen Guanzhi, but he did not stay in the place where Chen Guanzhi was, but in the deepest place, the deepest, darkest, and most dangerous place.

"You're not leaving?" Yan Rong directly entered his position, although there were all kinds of furnishings, but it was really cold, and it was dark, there was no scene of rats scurrying outside, but the boundless loneliness and darkness pressed towards people.

"General, we're only waiting outside the door." A royal forester at the door said.

"Tie me so tightly, the shackles on your hands and the shackles on your feet, you have all arranged them, are you still not at ease?" Yan Rong asked with a cold face.

"General, this is an order, and we can only obey it." This Imperial Forester was very polite to Yan Rong, and for some reason.

"Can you get out of the palace?" Yan Rong raised his eyes and asked.

"What does the general want to do?"

"I want you to help me see the situation in King Rong's Mansion." Yan Rong said.

"This, General, I don't know if you can't communicate with the outside world." The Guards said.

"What's your name?" Yan Rong asked.

The Imperial Forest Army was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Zhao Yuan." “

"Zhao Yuan, why didn't you take away the soft armor on my body just now?" Yan Rong walked to the door and asked through the gap.

"General, you got it." Zhao Yuan was taken aback and asked cautiously.

"Do you think I haven't arrested anyone, when I was arrested, you were still training." Yan Rong said with a wry smile.

"General, I just don't want you to suffer, I know you wear soft armor, but I'm afraid that there will be severe punishment in the future, you will be injured, besides, no one knows." Zhao Yuan said.

"Why are you doing that?" Yan Rong continued to ask.

"Because I believe that the general is innocent, you are the leader of the Yan family's army, you are the commander, and the Yan family has been a general for generations, if the Yan family rebels, it is impossible. I believe in the Yan family. Zhao Yuan said.

"You all believe in things, but the emperor doesn't believe it, I never thought that one day, this place would lock me up, it's really ridiculous, it's really a shame for the Yan family." Yan Rong said with a punch to the pillar.

"General, don't be angry, the emperor just can't figure it out for a while, after all, he is his most trusted courtier, and he should be the most unwilling to believe in his heart." Zhao Yuan said.

"You are very kind, but most of the Imperial Guards are not kind, and your character will suffer in it." Yan Rong said.

"The general is talking about me, I'm not afraid, I'm the lowest level in the Royal Forest Army, I'm not afraid, and it's really my luck that I can watch the general this time, I'm afraid that others will come to see the general and bully the general." Zhao Yuan said.

"You're not only kind, but you're also stupid, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you when you come in to deliver food, and then run away?" Yan Rong said deliberately.

"The general will not do this, because in Zhao Yuan's heart, the general is a hero, and the hero is from the world, not to kill the world, which is also the original intention of wanting to join the army." Zhao Yuan said with a yearning expression.

"Yes, no matter who it is, if they are forced to do so, they will kill it, but at that time, they will not be heroes, they will be murderers."
