When Chen Qiyu returned home, it was already dark. His face was somewhat gloomy, his brows were furrowed, as if a heavy burden was weighing on his heart. The lights in the house seemed particularly soft, but they could not dispel the haze in his heart.

Chen Shuyin, the younger sister who was busy in the house, noticed that something was wrong with her brother. She put down her work and walked quickly to Chen Qiyu, her clear eyes full of concern: "Brother, what's wrong with you? You look so bad, did something happen?"

Chen Qiyu looked at his sister, and a warm feeling welled up in his heart. But he didn't know how to start, after all, this matter was related to their father, Chen Tanyan, who had betrayed the country. He sighed and finally decided to tell his sister everything: "Shuyin, our father, he...he is hiding in the warehouse of Mulanfang now."

Chen Shuyin's eyes flashed with surprise when she heard this, but she quickly regained her composure. She said calmly, "Brother, I already knew about this. In fact, it was me who asked mother to hide father there."

Chen Qiyu looked at her in shock, seemingly unable to understand her sister's intention: "Why...why did you do this?"

Chen Shuyin took a deep breath and slowly told her plan: "Brother, think about it, father is a traitor, what a shameful act. He not only betrayed our family, but also betrayed his country. I did this to make him suffer the consequences. I have contacted Su Yuchen, and she will take action against father soon."

Hearing this, Chen Qiyu suddenly realized, and a trace of approval flashed in his eyes. He didn't expect his sister to have such wisdom and courage. He reached out and gently rubbed Chen Shuyin's hair, smiling and said: "Shuyin, you have really grown up. I am proud of you."

Chen Shuyin responded with a brilliant smile, knowing that her plan had the support of her brother. The two smiled at each other, as if all the haze had disappeared at this moment.

However, they did not let down their guard. Chen Tanyan's presence was always a huge hidden danger. Chen Shuyin continued, "Brother, we must be careful. Although we have made arrangements, we cannot completely trust Su Yuchen. We must make sure that nothing goes wrong."

Chen Qiyu nodded in agreement: "You are right. We cannot take it lightly. I will strengthen the surveillance around Mulanfang to ensure that everything is under our control."

The brother and sister discussed the specific action plan for a while, making sure that every link was perfect. As time passed, the night deepened, but the lights in the Chen family were still bright. They knew that this night was destined to be sleepless, because they had to fight for their own future and the safety of the country.

In the next few days, Chen Qiyu and Chen Shuyin closely followed the movements of Mulanfang. They collected intelligence through various channels and analyzed Su Yuchen's action plan. At the same time, they did not forget to monitor Chen Tanyan to prevent him from escaping or contacting the outside world.

During this period, Chen Tanyan seemed to have noticed something, but he could no longer escape. He tried to get in touch with the outside world, but found that all communication channels had been cut off. He began to panic, but all this was expected by Chen Qiyu and Chen Shuyin.

The night was as dark as ink, the moonlight was blocked by thick dark clouds, and only sporadic starlight illuminated this lonely warehouse. Suddenly, a burst of rapid horse hoof sounds broke the tranquility of the night, and Su Yuchen led a large number of people and horses to gallop over and quickly surrounded the warehouse.

Su Yuchen was dressed in a black outfit, looking heroic and brave, with a firm and resolute look in her eyes. She glanced at the surrounded warehouse, took a deep breath, and shouted loudly into the warehouse: "Chen Tanyan, you can't escape, just surrender!"

In the warehouse, Chen Tanyan hid in a dark corner. Hearing this, his heart trembled. He didn't expect Su Yuchen to find this place, and he didn't expect her to be so decisive and resolute. He knew that he really couldn't escape this time.

However, Chen Tanyan did not want to give up. He tried to play the emotional card and said in a trembling voice: "Yuchen, have you forgotten that I took you home and treated you like my own daughter? How could you do this to me?"

Su Yuchen heard this, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes. She did feel the warmth from Chen Tanyan, but that warmth had long been erased by his betrayal and cruelty. She responded coldly: "You killed my mother, coveted power, and even rebelled. You don't deserve to live!"

Chen Tanyan was shocked when he heard this. He knew that his crime had been exposed and could no longer be concealed. However, his desire to survive became stronger. He looked around and suddenly found a dog hole in the corner of the warehouse, and a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his heart.

He went into the dog hole without hesitation, trying to escape the encirclement. However, he didn't expect that Chu Xuanhao had been waiting for a long time behind him.

Chu Xuanhao was wearing brocade clothes, holding a long sword, with a cold look. He looked at the embarrassed Chen Tanyan with a mocking smile on his face.

Seeing this, Chen Tanyan begged for mercy: "Chu Xuanhao, you are my son-in-law, we are a family. If you can spare my life, I will be very grateful!"

However, Chu Xuanhao was not moved at all. He said coldly: "I only obey Su Yuchen. Your life and death is decided by her."

Chen Tanyan's body softened instantly when he heard this. He knew that he had completely lost hope and could only surrender.

Su Yuchen watched Chen Tanyan being escorted out, with mixed feelings in her heart. The father she had imagined was now her prisoner. She couldn't help but sigh that the world is unpredictable and people's hearts are hard to predict.

However, she had no mercy or sympathy. She knew that Chen Tanyan had committed countless crimes and his fate was entirely his own fault.

With the arrest of Chen Tanyan, the storm has come to a temporary end. However, for Su Yuchen, this is just a small episode in her growth path. She understands that the struggle for power will never stop, and she must continue to grow and transform in this struggle.

Su Yuchen's eyes gradually became firm and resolute. She knew that the road ahead was still long, and she had to move forward courageously to gain a foothold in this vortex of power.

The next morning, the sun shone through the clouds and the market was already bustling with people. However, today the market was shrouded in a strange atmosphere. The crowd spontaneously formed a big circle, and inside the circle was an unusual drama that was about to be staged.

Su Yuchen was dressed in military uniform, standing in the center of the circle, supervising the beheading of Chen Tanyan. Her eyes were firm and cold, as if she was saying, "Today, I will enforce justice for this chaotic world."

The people around looked at this scene in amazement, and whispers rose and fell. After all, it was the first time they had seen someone execute their own father.
