Chapter 122: Refutation
Gan Yanling explained the whole story to the officials.
But I never expected that after talking to these officials...
The officials were divided into two groups, one of which agreed with Gan Luo's approach.
However, another group refuted Gan Luo's approach.
"Your Majesty, I believe the crime does not warrant death."
When Gan Luo heard this, it was as if he had heard a huge joke.
"He created the Assassination Pavilion himself. Do I need to say how many people he killed?"
They all suddenly heard Gan Luo say this.
For a moment, he didn't know how to answer Gan Luo.
“This Minister of Revenue sent someone to assassinate me. I am a member of the royal family assassinating another member of the royal family. According to the law, this is punishable by death.”
Gan Luo seemed to remember something and added something else.
"Have you all forgotten something? It's all written clearly in the law."
Finally, Gan Luo questioned these civil and military officials here.
"Does it mean that the ministers have a problem with me?"
They suddenly heard Gan Luo say this.
Naturally, no one dared to say another word.
If they dare to say they have a problem with Gan Luo, they might end up like the Minister of Revenue later on.
However, according to Gan Luo's statement, the Minister of Revenue did indeed go too far.
Moreover, how much blood is on the hands of the Minister of Revenue?
"Do you know any of the officials from before, Li? If I'm not mistaken, the Minister of Revenue was involved in Li's assassination attempt on me. Tell me all of this, one by one. Doesn't this man deserve to die?"
They were speechless.
Gan Yanling saw that none of the officials dared to say another word after Gan Luo had rebuked them.
In that instant, I actually felt a sense of admiration for my older sister.
Lin Fengmian, however, was able to understand Gan Luo's disappointment.
He felt a faint, lingering pain in his heart.
After all, no matter what, Gan Luo was ultimately just a woman.
As a woman, I am enduring so much these days.
Time passed second by second, and the officials below remained kneeling.
The officials have been sitting here pondering how much longer they have to kneel.
Gan Yanling glanced at them and then simply called them all up.
"You may proceed on your way."
For some reason, Gan Yanling suddenly felt sorry for Gan Luo.
Although Gan Yanling did indeed want to suppress Gan Luo...
But most of the time, people just hoped that Gan Luo would be safe and sound.
And these are the things that the Minister of Revenue is doing now.
It did indeed cross Gan Yanling's bottom line.
That's why Gan Yanling agreed to Gan Luo's approach.
Afterwards, Gan Luo returned to the princess's residence.
In that instant, I felt a little dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
He was helped up by Lin Fengmian by chance.
Lin Fengmian simply picked Gan Luo up and carried him around the waist.
Surprisingly, Gan Luo's weight was actually lighter.
It looks like she's lost weight these days.
Gan Luo never expected Lin Fengmian to pick her up directly.
"you……"
"Your Highness, please do not speak."
Lin Fengmian carried Gan Luo directly into the room, gently placed Gan Luo on the bed, and then knelt on the ground.
"Your subordinate knows his crime and begs Your Highness for punishment."
This guy was holding her tightly just now, but now he's kneeling here. What's he up to?
"Alright, I'm a little tired. I'll rest for a while."
Gan Luo then lay down on the bed.
In no time, Gan Luo had fallen asleep.
Then came the sound of even breathing.
Lin Fengmian already knew that Gan Luo had fallen asleep.
Looking at Gan Luo's sleeping face, Lin Fengmian couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
The princess looks absolutely stunning when she's asleep.
No wonder so many people covet the princess's beauty.
The Minister of Revenue remained in the prison cell, looking down at Yan Ruyu.
"Don't worry, your brother will definitely find a way to get you out of here."
"But Father, what about you?"
Her brother rescued her, so what should he do now?
"This is what your father deserves. Your father did something wrong and he must accept the punishment. If you miss your father in the future, just look up at the sky."
"Father, I will avenge you."
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Yan Ruyu's eyes.
Unexpectedly, the Minister of Revenue directly reprimanded Yan Ruyu right there.
"You cannot avenge your father. Your father did something wrong, and he will accept the punishment! But you must never do the same thing as your father."
Just then they heard the sound of footsteps.
Looking outside, I was surprised to see Yan Kun.
Yan Kun's armor had been completely removed.
Could it be that Yan Kun has also been banished here by the emperor?
If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that the Yan family is doomed to die out?
If he were to reach the Yellow Springs, how would he face his ancestors?
In that instant, he collapsed to the ground, utterly defeated.
"Father, don't worry, I came here to see you. I'm fine."
He knew that there was no way to save the Minister of Revenue now.
Although they wanted to rescue the Minister of Revenue.
However, the mistake his father made was one that no monarch could tolerate.
"Can you rescue your sister? Your sister is innocent."
"Father, I've already spoken to Her Highness about this matter. Her Highness is willing to release my little sister, but Father, you..."
"Father is getting old. I'm fine, but you two must take good care of yourselves, understand?"
Yan Kun took out a token, and the guards immediately opened the prison door upon seeing it.
Yan Ruyu was rescued by Yan Kun.
Yan Kun looked at Yan Ruyu, and the two siblings hugged each other tightly.
They were really reluctant to part with the Minister of Revenue.
"In this world, there are always separations of life and death, and now Father is just the first to leave."
It's time to visit.
Yan Kun left with Yan Ruyu, planting the seeds of hatred in Yan Ruyu's heart.
"I will definitely avenge my father."
"If you dare to avenge our father, then don't acknowledge me as your brother anymore."
Yan Ruyu did not understand Yan Kun's meaning.
"Why don't you avenge your father now?"
Yan Kun took a deep breath and remained silent.
Yan Kun had never achieved anything in his life, and he never imagined that his own father would do such a thing.
He used his lifetime of military achievements to save Yan Ruyu's life.
If Yan Ruyu doesn't know what's good for her...
What is the point of him using his military merits now?
"Your brother truly hopes you can live a good life."
However, it seems that the engagement between my younger sister and the son of the Minister of War will be canceled because of this matter.
After all, Yan Kun knew the Minister of War's temperament very well.
