"Silence, do you realize she is now the Empress?" Zheng Congyuan's eyes were bloodshot as he immediately grabbed the sword and lunged at Ju Nanyi.
"I had intended to spare you. Don't force my hand," Zheng Congyuan spoke coldly, "With just one command from me..."
Zheng Congyuan drew his sword, his expression icy, his eyes filled with murderous intent. Ju Nanyi had to die, especially for that remark, he had to die.
Just then, suddenly, there was chaos outside Chenyuan Hall, footsteps swarmed towards them, and torches lit up the night.
Zheng Congyuan immediately looked towards the commotion outside.
"Well, well, Ju Nanyi, you came prepared," Zheng Congyuan said coldly as he sneered inwardly.
"Your Majesty—"
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened—Your Majesty—" Suddenly, Prime Minister Lin's voice arose from outside.
Zheng Congyuan's gaze paused, and he immediately looked down at Ju Nanyi who hadn't moved an inch.
