After meticulously questioning the group of attendants nearby, Emperor Yongning finally understood the reason. It was because Jun Ning had heard about being considered an omen of disaster and feared for her life, believing that even her father, the Emperor, couldn't save her, so she ran away.
How little did she trust him!
Emperor Yongning felt wronged; he had never intended to sacrifice Jun Ning to those ministers to appease them.
It was all those ministers' fault. If they hadn't labeled her as a disaster star, how could she have been scared away?
The anger within Emperor Yongning's heart quickly spread, and in a fit of rage, he kicked over the desk in front of him.
The papers, ink, brushes, and inkstone on the desk, along with a pile of memorials awaiting approval, all fell messily to the ground, with some memorials getting stained by ink.
"Are the gatekeepers all useless? They can't even watch over a child?"
"Execute them, have them all executed."
