However, this critical case, a matter of life and death, was personally ordered by the Emperor to be escorted to the capital.
The Dali Temple provided ironclad evidence, and the Ministry of Justice had already endorsed and closed the case.
In such a situation, overturning the verdict would be extremely difficult.
But the Fan Family wasn't afraid.
After all, they had the Empress; an Empress had emerged from their family.
Therefore, on the twenty-sixth of August, the Empress received the news.
It was a message that the Fan Family had managed to send into the palace by hook or by crook.
It simply said, "Your second brother is to be executed after the autumn harvest. Plead with the Emperor for mercy immediately!"
The Empress, faced with the person who delivered the message, was completely dumbfounded.
"Executed after the autumn harvest?"
The person nodded.
When the Empress wanted to ask more, the person knelt down and paid respects.
