C287 Who is this little girl

Yan Heng had no choice but to beg the Kaiser for mercy, but in the end, all of them rejected him.

Yan Qi's punishment was too heavy, even if the Kaiser wanted to change the judgement, he could not.

"Your majesty, this humble subject only has one son. Please be merciful, your majesty!"

"Fourth royal uncle, the nation's law cannot tolerate this. Yan Qi has committed the crime of murder and arson, he has dozens of lives on his hands, can you count them? If he had shown mercy to those from the Chen Clan back then, he wouldn't have reached where he is today. "

Yan Shuo looked at Yan Heng's crying face and could not bear to do so.

However, he had spared Yan Qi today, so as to give the rest of the Yan Clan a chance to follow suit.

In the future, how would the people believe in him, the Kaiser?

"Your Majesty! "Your majesty!"

"I still have a lot of government work to handle, so it's better for royal uncle to leave."

Yan Shuo's gaze was cast outside the hall, "Men, invite Prince Jing out."

Yan Heng was clear that there was nothing he could do about it, he did not even have the chance to plead with Yan Yuan.

It looked like his son must die.

Yan Heng's eyes were full of hatred.

If Yan Yuan had not gone to investigate the case with his death, his son would not have died.

Yan Yuan, it's all your fault, what enmity does this duke have with you? Why do you want this duke to die without any descendants?

The resentment in Yan Heng's heart filled both of his eyes. The flames of fury that burned in his eyes seemed to be able to turn Yan Yuan into ashes.

In Yan Qi's case, under the dual pressure of Yan Yuan and Yan Shuo, the Ministry of Justice did not dare to change the verdict.

Jing Wang Yan Heng had no way to ask for help, so he could only return to Grand Dominance Manor.

It was currently the 12th month of the lunar calendar, and there were still ten months until the appointed time of the following autumn. During these ten months, he would definitely be able to think of another method.

East Garden —

"Princess, what's wrong?"

Ever since the last time, Xiao Yue had always been very careful in front of Liu Ruo Qing.

Last time, Liu Ruo Qing had helped her hide the fact that she was an assassin from Yan Yuan, as well as the fact that he never pursued her origins, she was extremely grateful in her heart.

Liu Ruo Qing knew Xiao Yue's true nature, so after what happened last time, she did not take it to heart.

"Nothing."

She shook her head, looked sideways at Xiao Yue, and said: "I just feel that your lives are extremely boring, and that there's nothing to do at home all day, don't you feel bored?"

In Xiao Yue's eyes, there was bitterness.

If she could choose, she hoped that she wouldn't have to do anything and be carefree.

"Princess, if you feel bored, you can go for a walk on the streets. It's almost New Year's Eve, and many people are going to the city to gather at the market. It's going to be very lively."

Although Xiao Yue's suggestion was not very creative, but for a person like Liu Ruo Qing who could not stay at home, she could only reluctantly accept it.

"Alright, come out with me for a walk."

"Alright."

Sure enough, it was as Xiao Yue had said. Jindu who were close to the New Year s assessment were even more lively than before.

The streets were bustling with the sound of people hawking their wares.

The restaurants along the streets were bustling with activity, and the streets were filled with guests.

At the window seat, the handsome man looked deeply at the charming figure on the street. He pointed at the wine cup in his hand and tapped it gently.

The corner of his mouth hooked into an ambiguous smile. No one knew what he was thinking about.

Beside him stood a grey-clothed youth in his teens. Looking at his master blankly, he could not help but ask, "Young Master, we've already left the King's Manor for several months. It's almost the end of the year, are we still not going back?"

Ever since his master picked up the lotus lamp by the river, he had been in a good mood. However, he still couldn't understand what his young master was so happy about.

This did not look like the young master usually did at all.

The young man's eyes were still glued to the window. After a while, he suddenly sighed with melancholy, "Yes, it's almost the end of the year. Does the little girl miss home?"

His gaze fell on the side of the street, where he was joking with others. His heart felt dull and painful.

"Little girl?"

A trace of blankness flashed past the youth's eyes, "Who is this little girl?"

Recently, the young master's words have always been weird. Don't tell him that the young master came all the way to Easternum for a woman.

The man didn't answer. His gaze remained calm and collected as he looked at the teenager beside him and said, "Give Master a letter saying that I won't be going back."

"Ah?" "Young master, this …"

"What's the use of writing a letter when I tell you to?"

"Yes, young master."

On the side of the street, in front of a small stall, Liu Ruo Qing and Xiao Yue were picking out a few delicately crafted items with great interest.

"Xiao Yue, look. This is a really good work of art.

"Yes, Young..." Miss, these things are really beautiful. "

In front of the stall, a middle-aged woman was still knitting a female figure. It was all made from reed and grass, and it was also painted with some material, making it look very lifelike.

"If the two ladies like it, I can sell it to you for a cheap price. It's almost the end of the year, we also want to sell it for a bit more so that we can buy some New Year's goods."

The woman's hands were very clever, and the things were beautifully woven, but life was not easy, as one could see from the calluses on her hands.

A sense of pity rose in Liu Ruo Qing's heart, and looking at the exquisite items, she said to Xiao Yue: "Xiao Yue, come, pick a few more, we will take them back to give them to others."

"Yes, miss."

Xiao Yue was in front of the vendor, looking at the puppet in his wife's hand. At this moment, she was already finished weaving and was applying some color.

"Eldest sister-in-law, I want this one as well. Give it to me after you finish drawing it."

"Yes, miss, please wait a moment."

The woman was very happy. It was good for her to be able to sell one.

"Miss, this puppet is a pair. This is already done, do you like it?"

The woman began to peddle enthusiastically.

Liu Ruo Qing took the doll in her hands and glanced at it. In her mind, she naturally recalled Yan Yuan's handsome face, and couldn't help but laugh out loud when she saw the scene on the puppet's face.

"Alright, I'll take both."

"Alright, I'll get it ready for you."

Perhaps because Liu Ruo Qing bought too many things, the woman was very happy, and did her best. Very quickly, the puppet in her hands was also completed.

"Miss, it's done."

The lady was just about to give it to Liu Ruo Qing, a pair of white, slender hands grabbed it in front of her.

"Eh, this thing is quite fresh. I've never seen it before."

That familiar voice caused Liu Ruo Qing to raise her head. When she saw the other party's face, Liu Ruo Qing's brows subconsciously furrowed.

How unlucky, he could bump into her if he went shopping.

The person who came was none other than Yan Chang who he had always disliked.
