Chapter 26: Anger to the Point of Death

At the city gate.

The Emperor, dressed in imperial robes, stood with his hands behind his back on the city tower.

His expression was extremely solemn.

He was thinking that last night's theft from the national treasury was definitely not the work of ordinary people.

Self-robbery by the guards... was also highly unlikely.

After all, with so much wealth, not a trace had disappeared overnight.

Since when did such formidable figures appear in the Great Yan Dynasty?

The Emperor thought bitterly, "Once we find them, they will be dismembered in five different ways."

This was an open challenge to the royal authority, a blatant disregard for imperial power.

It was truly despicable!

The Emperor watched as the carriage approached from a distance, and his mood finally improved slightly.

In any case, he had successfully eliminated the threat posed by Xiao Chengjin.

As for whether they would safely reach Jizhou on the way to exile, that depended on fate.

And as for the items from Prince An's residence, they would all go into his private treasury!

The Emperor thought triumphantly, "Initially, the late Emperor collected such rare items for him, but in the end, they all returned to my hands."

Outside the city gate, Ji Yunce and his two companions were getting anxious, constantly looking towards the city gate.

They were well aware that the Emperor's actions appeared to show "deep brotherly love" but were, in fact, extremely insincere.

On the journey of exile, if anything were to happen, what would they do?

The only consolation was that their lady had already learned some self-defense skills.

It was truly a stroke of luck!

More importantly, their lady unexpectedly had the foresight.

In the future, they would follow their lady's lead in everything.

The carriage reached the city gate.

Jiang Ru patted Xiao Chengjin's cheek and teased, "The Dog Emperor is about to put on a show. Don't miss this exciting moment!"

Xiao Chengjin: "..."

You're here watching the show when you should be finding a way to escape with your life?

The Emperor descended slowly from the city tower, wearing a face filled with resentment.

When he reached the carriage, he sighed helplessly and his expression showed a bit of heartache and reluctance...

Jiang Ru thought, "Heh, in terms of acting, I'm really inferior to you, old man. Let me show you my superb acting skills."

Jiang Ru stood up, gracefully leaped down from the carriage, and walked confidently to the Emperor's side. She slightly bent forward and said, "This common woman pays her respects to Your Majesty, long live our Emperor!"

If you think I'm going to kneel for you, that's impossible.

They may fear you, but I certainly don't.

Hehe! Besides zombies, there's nothing I'm afraid of!

The people around watched Jiang Ru's fearless demeanor and couldn't help but gasp in astonishment. Their gazes were drawn to her exquisite beauty.
