In order to give an explanation to the Empress, before all the Wei family members were gathered, Mr. Wei, despite being both the imperial teacher and Prime Minister, was temporarily "invited" into the Ministry of Justice's prison by Emperor Jing.
Of course, he was not alone; all his relatives in the Capital City accompanied him.
Among them was also his somewhat promising son—Wei Chengchao.
The somber atmosphere in the Capital City could not affect the cycle of day and night. Early the next morning, the fiery red sun rose as usual on the horizon.
On the streets, the cries of peddlers slicing through the morning mist and the white steam of freshly steamed soybean milk rising from the market indicated the bustling cycle of the Capital City's streets had begun again.
Today, the teaching nanny did not come. After having breakfast at the Honglu Temple guesthouse, Princess Yujia of the Turks let Alan accompany her for a stroll.
