Exile: Empty half of the capital and blow up the enemy's palace

Yun Qingqing carried Xiaobai to the front hall. When she arrived there, she saw that people from the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion had already gathered there. A group of armored and aggressive royal guards stood in front of them. The atmosphere was solemn and tense.

The old eunuch in a dragon robe, the leader of the Imperial Guards, stood in the center of the courtyard with a stern expression on his face, reading the Emperor's decree aloud: "By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor decrees that the Duke of Protector's Mansion is suspected of colluding with foreign enemies, treason, and conspiracy. All family members shall be imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for three days and then exiled to the wilderness. This is my decree!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces were filled with shock and fear. The elder lady shouted angrily, "Our Protectorate Mansion is loyal to the Great Zhou Kingdom. How could we collude with foreign enemies and plot rebellion? This must be a frame-up. Eunuch Liu, please take me to see the Emperor. I want to ask the Emperor who has framed our Protectorate Mansion in this way!"

The elder lady was furious. Damn it, the men in the Duke of Protector's Mansion all fought on the battlefield, sacrificing their own families to protect the country and the safety of the Great Zhou Kingdom. Only then could the Great Zhou Kingdom have its current peace and prosperity, and could the smallest of the six kingdoms rank third in strength among the six kingdoms.

To be shameless, if it weren't for the Duke of Huguo's Mansion trying so hard to protect the Great Zhou Kingdom, the Great Zhou Kingdom would have perished long ago. Yet, there are people who repeatedly frame the Duke of Huguo's Mansion for treason.

And this old emperor is really confused and judges others by his own standards.

It was because of their loyalty to him and their dedication to protecting his kingdom that he was able to sit securely on the throne and live a comfortable and leisurely life.

If the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion could remain safe this time, she would ask the old man to retire and return home, and would never let the men of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

The old emperor is extremely suspicious. Since the Duke of Huguo's Mansion has made great military achievements, he will think that they are more powerful than the emperor and will attack them.

The old eunuch snorted coldly, his tone filled with disdain. "Madam Yuan, the evidence of treason against the Duke of the Protectorate has been handed to the emperor. It clearly records that General Weiyuan and others defected to the Northern Desert Kingdom, colluded with the Northern Desert Kingdom, and committed treason with the enemy, intending to rebel and harm our Great Zhou Kingdom. Don't quibble here! The emperor will not believe the words of a traitor's family member like you...ah——"

The big tree behind him suddenly fell down and pressed heavily on him. He let out a miserable scream. This sudden change stunned everyone, including the elder lady who was so angry that her body was shaking and she wanted to hit someone. How could the tree suddenly fall down?

The old eunuch was pinned down by a huge tree and couldn't move. He screamed like a pig being slaughtered. Seeing this, all the imperial guards rushed to rescue him.

Seeing this, Yun Qingqing's eyes flashed with coldness. "Hmph, if I can't crush you, you bastard, how can your grandmother be scolded by this bastard!" Taking advantage of the chaos, Yun Qingqing carried the little white wolf to her family. Seeing that their faces were all unhappy, she comforted them and said, "Don't be afraid. It doesn't matter if our property is confiscated and we are exiled. As long as our family is together, there is nothing we can't overcome."

The optimistic Wu said, "Yes, Abao is right. Let's stop looking so gloomy and stay calm. It's just a matter of confiscating our property and exiling us. It's no big deal. I'm tired of staying in the capital and I'm thinking of moving somewhere else."

After hearing this, Bai Qianqian's frown relaxed and she forced a smile, saying, "I'm tired of staying in the capital. I want to go somewhere else."

Jiang and others also expressed their positions, saying that no matter what happens, the family will face it together.

The elder lady listened to the words of her daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law, and her anger was calmed. As long as their family is united, there will be no difficulties that cannot be overcome. So the elder lady also said: "You are right. As long as our family is together, there will be no obstacles that we cannot overcome."

If the old emperor really listened to the slander this time and confiscated the property of the Duke of Huguo and exiled them, and later he knew that the Duke of Huguo had not colluded with the enemy and wanted them to continue to work hard for him to protect the Great Zhou Kingdom, she would firmly disagree!

Go to hell with protecting the Great Zhou Kingdom! They tried their best to protect the Great Zhou Kingdom, but in return, the old emperor didn't distinguish right from wrong and confiscated their property and exiled them. This is really disheartening!

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Just as her anger was rising, someone grabbed her hand and a clear voice rang out, "Grandma, don't worry. I'll take care of everything. I'll protect you."

The anger in the elder lady's heart subsided when she heard her granddaughter's voice. Looking at her clear and resolute eyes, the elder lady felt a little more at ease. She held her hand and sighed softly, "Our A-bao has really grown up."

At this moment, the royal guards finally rescued the old eunuch who was pinned by a big tree. The old eunuch's legs were covered in blood and he could no longer stand up. He could only sit on the ground. His face was ashen and his eyes were blazing as he stared at Yun Qingqing and others. He obviously blamed the people in the Duke of Protector's Mansion for this sudden accident.

"How daring the Protectorate Palace is to launch a surprise attack on our family!"

Upon hearing this, Yun Qingqing looked at him and said, "Eunuch, please don't lie with your eyes open. What happened just now was purely an accident. The tree fell down on its own because it didn't want to live anymore. How can you blame our Protectorate Mansion?"

After saying that, without waiting for him to speak, she continued, "Eunuch, although our Protectorate Mansion is in trouble now, this is only temporary. My father and brothers are absolutely impossible to treason. The Protectorate Mansion will definitely be cleared of the injustice in the future. You were so disrespectful to my grandmother when our Protectorate Mansion was in trouble. Aren't you afraid that the truth will be revealed in the future and you will be torn into pieces? Eunuch, I advise you to leave a way out for yourself so that we can meet again in the future. Don't be too extreme in everything, otherwise God will not be able to bear it and you will be struck by lightning."

The implication is: If you continue to be arrogant in front of the Duke of Protectorate, I will enforce justice on the behalf of Heaven and kill you with lightning.

The old eunuch's face turned even uglier when he heard this. He thought to himself that this girl was right. Just because the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion was in trouble now, it didn't mean it wouldn't be rehabilitated in the future. If he really criticized the people of the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion too harshly at this time, he would be in big trouble if the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion was rehabilitated in the future.

So, he could only suppress his anger, snorted coldly, and did not pursue the responsibility of the tree falling from the Protectorate Mansion and breaking her leg. He just ordered: "Come here, take all the family members of the Protectorate Mansion to the Sky Prison! Send away the servants in the mansion!"

Following the old eunuch's order, the imperial guards acted quickly and dismissed the servants from the mansion.

Ten servants were left behind and taken to the Sky Prison along with the family of the Duke of Protectorate.
