What Murong Ci didn't know was that after returning to the Royal Palace a few hours ago, Murong Yu had ordered his subordinates to do the work in batches.
A total of hundreds of people from Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao's nine generations had been taken to the prison of the Ministry of Justice.
Those who were not in the Capital had already been sent over or detained in local prisons.
Their relatives would be implicated and executed in secret, and they would never be allowed to leave a trace of inheritance, which would become a threat in the future.
This thunderous action, like a bolt from the blue, caught people off guard.
The noise of footsteps and panic and screams in the middle of the night awakened the dreams of the people of the Imperial Capital.
Some people got up and put on their clothes and saw the soldiers like wolves and tigers forcibly taking them away.
They were so scared that they hurriedly hid and couldn't sleep anymore.
Early in the morning, the whole Capital was boiling.
Almost all the people flocked to the streets and gathered in front of the signs posted by the Royal Family to discuss eagerly.
Combined with the Officials behavior before the early morning hours, and by looking at this notice again, the people of the Capital quickly came to a conclusion:
Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao committed Capital Crimes, and will be showed the public for execution!
Their nine generations will also be punished!
When the sky was about to dawn, Master Wan Fang and Master Wang Tao's close and distant relatives had been swept away.
However, some people were asking:
What Capital Crimes did they commit?
It was also speculated that this thunderbolt action must have been the handwriting of the Emperor, because only he had such a courage.
Twenty years ago, the suppression operation that affected many people was also the Emperor's personal decree.
Several Royal Princes were in trouble because of it.
The grass and trees were all covered by soldiers, and the people of the Imperial Capital were frightened and in a panic for many days.
But at that time, there was no public execution.
This time, however, they had announced a public execution, which not only made the people excited, but also frightened.
The entire Imperial Capital was like a frying pan that was about to explode.
One the other hand, the Royal Palace was so quiet.
Murong Ci didn't know yet that so many things had happened while she was sleeping, and stood up and said,
"I'm full. Before noon, I'd like to have a look at the painting.
Where did you put the painting? The Study Room?"
Murong Yu nodded.
Although he only slept for an hour, he was still full of energy,
"In the Study Room."
Qin Ruo saw His Highness leave, and followed behind, some distance away.
Murong Shi saw that His Highness was coming over and wanted to fly to him, but when she saw the cold face of her Third Uncle, she didn't dare to step forward, and watched His Highness walk past her.
'What to do?'
Seeing them enter the Study Room, she wandered around, anxiously thinking about countermeasures.
Qin Ruo couldn't help saying:
"Princess, you should go back first, because his Highness is very busy."
Murong Shi stubbornly said:
"No matter how busy you are, you also have to rest, right?"
The servant brought tea to the Study Room, and suddenly Murong Shi had a glimpse of light in her eyes, and took the wooden case over, with her eyes flashing slyly,
"This Princess is going to deliver the tea."
Before Qin Ruo could even intervene to stop her, she had already entered the Study Room.
