As her voice faded away, Han Yushi and others felt their hearts hanging in their throats.

They felt a little regretful that they shouldn't have been the first to take action before confirming the token.

Now that the emperor is angry with me, I don’t know what punishment he will give me!

Cheng Enbo was the first to argue: "Your Majesty, I was also deceived. This token was thrown in the yard. I will definitely present it to you!"

Emperor Sheng An interrupted sternly, "Shut up! I'll settle accounts with you later. Now, let's deal with Han Yushi and the others first!"

Han Yushi quickly said, "Your Majesty, we are wronged!"

Emperor Sheng An sneered, "You are not wronged at all. You are so irresponsible and slandering someone so recklessly. I will never forgive you lightly. Each of you should take out 10,000 taels of silver to compensate Marquis Zhan Yi, and also share the money Li Delu just spent on the gold hairpin!"

Several people cried: "Your Majesty, we have no money!"

Emperor Sheng An raised his eyebrows: "So, you forced me to order the confiscation of your property?"

Several people hurriedly shook their heads: "No, Your Majesty, we were wrong. We will send the compensation silver to the Marquis Zhan Yi's mansion as soon as possible!"

"Get out!" Emperor Sheng An shouted in disgust.

Han Yushi and his companions left in disgrace, fearing that if they left too slowly, the emperor would become furious and order a house search.

Looking at their embarrassed figures, Emperor Sheng An's eyes were gloomy.

He glanced at Cheng Enbo with disdain: "Now it's your turn. What benefits did the King of Zhongyong promise you to make you work for him and frame Zhan Yan?"

Cheng Enbo denied it in horror: "Your Majesty, I didn't do it!"

Emperor Sheng An kicked him to the ground, pointed his finger at his nose and cursed, "Sheng Kaiyuan, how stupid do you think I am that I think you are innocent? How come this broken box ended up in your house instead of someone else's?"

Cheng Enbo struggled to argue: "Your Majesty, it simply fell from the sky. I dare not lie!"

Emperor Sheng An nodded. "Very good, very good. Zhan Yan, you will personally lead the team to search the Cheng En Marquis's residence. Make sure you capture that bastard for me. I will tear him into pieces!"

"Yes!" Zhan Yan agreed and quickly took Lin Yiwan away.

Cheng Enbo's face suddenly became terrified. He gritted his teeth and prayed secretly that King Zhongyong had left the Sheng family long ago.

However, King Chungyong wanted to leave, but unfortunately, he couldn't move at all.

Somehow his mouth got stuck to Mrs. Cheng Enbo's waist. He tried to get it free, but couldn't.

In a panic, he asked in a hoarse voice: "What on earth did you put on?"

Mrs. Cheng Enbo replied cautiously: "I just put on the perfume. I wanted it to smell good, and I was afraid you would dislike it!"

King Zhongyong gritted his teeth. What kind of ointment would stick to his mouth?

Damn, his skin is about to be torn off.

Without hesitation, he quickly shouted, "Someone, come quickly!"

Mrs. Cheng Enbo's tears welled up all of a sudden. She hurriedly tried to stop him: "No, don't call others. Your Majesty, we can't let others see what we have done!"

At this moment, Sheng Baozhu called out from outside, "Mom, why did the bell doctor I invited suddenly disappear? Did you invite her to your yard?"

Mrs. Cheng Enbo answered loudly: "No, Baozhu, I am not feeling well. You are not allowed to come into the house. Please leave quickly!"

Just as Sheng Baozhu was about to leave, she heard her mother's aggrieved voice: "I beg you, don't call anyone, don't call anyone!"

Her expression suddenly changed. Oh my god, was her mother threatened?

She didn't dare to hesitate, she just grabbed the door-blocking stick and rushed into the house.

"Bang!" She kicked the door open, still shouting, "Mom, I'm here to save you!"

The tent was blown open by a gust of wind, and she saw the blushing wife of Cheng Enbo and the man leaning against her waist.

Lady Cheng Enbo reacted quickly and took the quilt to cover him.

King Zhongyong struggled to get his head out. He sternly ordered, "Close the door quickly! Hurry!"

"Mom, who is he? How could you fool around with another man while my dad is away?" Sheng Baozhu burst into tears.

Lady Cheng En wanted to gag her immediately. She whispered, "Baozhu, you want everyone to know what you're saying, right? He's the King of Loyalty and Bravery. You should listen to him and close the door!"

Sheng Baozhu bit her lips in grievance, turned around and closed the door.

Seeing the two people entangled together, she couldn't help but ask: "Why are you like this?"

King Zhongyong said angrily: "My mouth is stuck to her, please bring some warm water over here and pour it over her slowly!"

Sheng Baozhu did not dare to delay and hurriedly walked up to him with warm water.

King Zhongyong urged: "Hurry up and pour it out! Don't waste time!"

Sheng Baozhu made up her mind and poured a full basin of warm water on the connection between the two people.

Now, instead of separating, they stuck together even tighter, even affecting half of his face.

King Zhongyong was scared to death. What the hell was this thing? Why did it become more sticky the more it came into contact with water?

Sheng Baozhu was also at a loss. She had never seen such a situation before and had no idea what to do.

She asked tearfully, "Mother, are you going to stay like this forever? What if my father sees us?"

Mrs. Cheng Enbo wished she could find a hole in the ground to crawl into. She was also afraid.

If we delay any longer, I'm afraid Sheng Kaiyuan will come back.

She said quickly, "Prince, there's no other way. Pull harder, I can bear it. As long as we separate, even if it hurts, I'm willing!"

The loyal and brave prince interrupted without hesitation: "Do you think I didn't use enough force? If I had used more force, I would have ripped the skin off my face. No, we must quickly find a doctor. Don't you have a doctor in the Cheng'en Marquis's mansion?"

Sheng Baozhu subconsciously wanted to run out, but her mother stopped her with a sharp voice: "No!"

King Zhongyong roared, "How dare you! It's already this hour, and you're still worried about your reputation. I don't care, so what are you afraid of? If anything were to happen to me, the entire Sheng family would be dead!"

Just one sentence was enough to make Lady Cheng Enbo dare not say a word.

She closed her eyes tightly: "Baozhu, go get the palace doctor!"

Soon, the court doctor hurried over.

After seeing this, he tried every possible way to separate the two.

Just as the situation was at a stalemate, a frightened voice suddenly came from outside: "Madam, Miss, the palace has sent people to search our Cheng Enbo Mansion!"

Mrs. Cheng Enbo's expression suddenly changed. She asked in shock, "How could this be?"

King Zhongyong reacted quickly and realized that his plan to slander Zhan Yan must have failed. The emperor suspected Sheng Kaiyuan and sent people to arrest him!

Without further hesitation, he quickly reached out and whistled.

Several men in black suddenly jumped in through the window, scaring Sheng Baozhu and Mrs. Cheng Enbo so much that they screamed.

King Zhongyong ordered in a deep voice: "Hurry up and cover us with the quilt and carry us away. We must not be caught by the people sent by the emperor!"
