Cut off my tendons in my hands and feet to make me marry? Prepare to die!

The news that the werewolf young master was hijacked from the execution ground spread quickly in the capital.

Yue Ran had just returned to the palace to hand over the bone-jointed wood carved board to Ning Xin when the palace issued an order for her to come to the palace.

The bird's nest that Yue Yuan had someone bring to Yue Ran had not yet cooled to a palatable temperature, and Yue Ran only had time to change his clothes before leaving the palace again.

"Why does the werewolf have one trouble after another? What does being kidnapped by someone have to do with Ranran?"

Yue Yuan stared in dissatisfaction:

"What bad luck!"

If time could go back, five years ago he would rather give the werewolf tribe a mountain of gold as a reward than let his daughter form a bond with that werewolf cub.

Yue Ran patted the back of his father's hand soothingly:

"It's all right, father. His Majesty is probably not doubting his daughter, but is looking for clues about the robbery at the execution ground."

Emperor Shengwen was able to control his subordinates with moderation. After he ascended the throne, life in the Great Chu became better and better. To be honest, he was indeed a wise monarch.

It was the first time that a death row prisoner was abducted from the execution ground at Caishikou in the capital since Emperor Shengwen ascended the throne.

Hall has been with Yue Ran all these years, so Emperor Shengwen will definitely ask her to come to the palace to question her.

In fact, Yue Ran was in a pretty good mood at the moment.

She just had a brief chat with Ning Xin.

Ning Xin held the bone-carving board in her arms as if it were a rare treasure, and she refused to let go.

Her usually dull expression changed, and her eyes turned slightly red:

"Princess, this big piece of smilax glabra is three hundred years old, which is enough! Ning Xin can not only use it to treat the prince's injuries, but the remaining part can also save many people with broken bones."

Seeing Ning Xin so excited, Yue Ran felt relieved.

My father’s illness can finally be cured.

This incident alone was enough to offset the unpleasantness caused by Hall being abducted from the execution ground.

After everything was explained, Yue Ran rode a fast horse to the palace.

When the eunuch led her into the imperial study, Yue Ran discovered that there was a tall and burly werewolf kneeling there. Upon closer inspection, he looked quite familiar. It was Hall's half-brother, the Wolf Lord's eldest son, Kerr.

Yue Ran calmly turned his gaze away from Kerr and saluted respectfully to Emperor Shengwen.

Emperor Shengwen looked calm and waved his hand casually:

"Princess Yue Ran, there is no need to be so polite. I am sure you already know why I summoned you to the palace."

Yue Ran stood up straight and spoke carefully:

"I dare to guess that since the eldest son of the Wolf Lord is here, I wonder if Your Majesty is concerned about the kidnapping of Hall from the execution ground?"

Emperor Shengwen narrowed his eyes and hummed softly.

Kerr knelt on the ground respectfully, his face showing no panic, but rather a bit of indignation.

He raised his head and looked at Emperor Shengwen:

"Your Majesty, I swear on my head that Hall's kidnapping from the execution ground was definitely not the work of my werewolf tribe!"

"The loyalty of the werewolf tribe to the Great Chu is evident to all. Even if Your Majesty does not punish a member of the tribe like Hall who has betrayed us many times, once he is brought back to the werewolf tribe, my father will personally execute him."

Kerr had a loud voice and spoke neither humbly nor arrogantly. His speech and actions did not show the inferiority of an orc. Instead, he sounded more like a brave and skilled warrior.

Emperor Shengwen raised his chin towards Yue Ran:

"Yue Ran, what do you think?"

Yue Ran looked back at Emperor Shengwen calmly:

"I just returned to the capital from Qingquan Villa today. I happened to see Hall's execution and witnessed his execution. I felt something was wrong and was about to report it to Your Majesty."

"When Hall was about to execute the executioner, a strange wind suddenly blew over the execution platform at Caishikou. For a moment, it was difficult for everyone to open their eyes, including me. When I heard the executioner's scream and opened my eyes again, Hall had disappeared."

Her expression became serious:

"Your Majesty, the area around Caishikou in the capital is full of houses and restaurants, and it is tightly blocked on all sides. Not to mention this kind of strange wind, even ordinary wind is rare."

"The man who kidnapped Hall was so fast that I have never seen such a speed before. Only a Sword Saint in the Great Chu could achieve such speed."

Emperor Shengwen's eyebrows darkened when he heard this:

"Juggernaut?"

Yue Ran said loudly:

"I am not doubting the Sword Saint, but the speed of the man who robbed the execution ground is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people."

She wasn't talking nonsense, nor was she pointing her sword at the Sword Master.

Although the Sword Saint had once taught Feng Xiaolou swordsmanship, in the memories of his previous life, there was no trace of the Sword Saint in the actions of Chu Hantian and others.

Yue Ran was analyzing completely realistically at this moment.

Emperor Shengwen's eyes became solemn.

He called Ke'er and Yue Ran, but he didn't really doubt them in his heart.

There was a dispute over the interests of the heirs between Kerr and Hall, and their relationship had always been unharmonious.

Yue Ran was framed by Hall many times, and she also discovered that Hall had lied and cheated when he saved the person. The friendship they once had was long gone.

However, if the person who took Hall away was neither a werewolf nor Yue Ran, then there must be such a mysterious master whose speed of robbing the execution ground was so fast that even a general like Yue Ran could not see clearly.

What if this person did not rob the execution ground, but entered the palace to assassinate?

Emperor Shengwen didn't care about the life or death of the werewolf, but he had to find out who took him away, otherwise he would have a hard time letting it go.

"Send an order to the Dali Temple to thoroughly investigate the robbery of Hall!"

Immediately a eunuch went down to convey the order.

There was nothing more to say about this matter for the time being. After Emperor Shengwen asked Kerr to leave, Yue Ran bowed again:

"Your Majesty, I have something else to report."

Emperor Shengwen raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile appeared in the corner of his eyes:

"It seems that even if I don't look for you today, you will come to see me anyway."

Yue Ran bent down and said loudly:

"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"

"What I want to report is related to the golden light in the sky above the capital today!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Shengwen waved his hand and dismissed all the people in the imperial study, leaving only a senior eunuch by his side. Then he signaled Yue Ran to continue.

Yue Ran took out a delicate little wooden box from his sleeve and presented it with both hands:

"Your Majesty, yesterday I went to the manor of the palace in Qingquan Mountain and accidentally found this item among my deceased mother's belongings."

"After I opened this item, golden light began to overflow, and then gradually enveloped the entire Great Chu capital."

"I think such an auspicious sign should be presented to Your Majesty!"

When the eunuch in the imperial study saw the look in Emperor Shengwen's eyes, he hurried forward to take the wooden box from Yue Ran's hand, and then carefully opened the wooden box in front of Emperor Shengwen from a few steps away.

A soft golden light suddenly filled the entire imperial study.

Emperor Shengwen stood up unconsciously and looked at the things in the wooden box with wide eyes.

The source of the golden light is a golden object the size of an egg, shaped like an egg, hollowed out and covered with wonderful patterns. The soft light shines on people, making them feel warm and comfortable.

Emperor Shengwen walked over step by step, and reached out his hand absentmindedly to touch the hollow golden egg. It felt like jade or gold, and he couldn't tell what material it was made of, but it was warm and smooth, and very comfortable to the touch.

He could clearly see that the golden light emitted by the hollow golden egg overflowed through the door and windows of the imperial study and gradually merged with the light golden barrier in the sky.

He turned around and looked at Yue Ran:

"Yue Ran, do you know what this miracle represents? Do you really want to offer it to me?"

Yue Ran bowed and spoke solemnly:

"Your Majesty is a rare wise monarch. God allowed me to discover this miracle when the snowstorm came. It must be because of your Majesty's great grace. This item should be presented to your Majesty!"

Feng Xiaolou, you can stand aside.

Don't even think about snatching merit from Emperor Shengwen.
