Li Xiang Nan nodded his head and did not say anything else. However, when he passed by Eunuch Cao, he licked his lips. His steps clearly paused for a moment before he walked in.

"This humble subject pays his respects to Your Majesty. "Long live the Emperor." After Li Xiang Nan entered the imperial study, he gently kneeled on the ground with an expression that made it difficult to see his facial expression.

After hearing the voice, the emperor lifted his head out from the imperial report. He glanced at the person kneeling on the ground and said, "Daughter, please rise."

"Thank you, your majesty." Li Xiang Nan answered as he stood up. Although he was extremely anxious, he did not reveal any expression on his face.

"Is it a matter of utmost importance that my beloved one is in such a hurry to see me?" His words unknowingly carried a trace of majesty. It was hard for people to ignore him.

"This humble subject humbly requests that Your Majesty uphold justice for this humble subject." After saying that, Li Xiang Nan once again kneeled down, bowed his head, and said.

"Oh? Why do you say that, my beloved one? " The emperor was slightly surprised, but he didn't immediately agree. Instead, he asked about his own matters, unconsciously twirling the white jade thumb ring on his finger.

There was neither joy nor sorrow on his face, making others unable to guess what he was thinking. Although Li Xiangnan knew that doing so might be a bit risky, he couldn't help but agree and continue speaking when he thought of Li Die's smiling face.

"In reply to Your Majesty. It was the Grand General of the Hussars who ordered his men to directly capture this humble subject's direct daughter while she was out of the household. He even asked the Emperor to take charge of this humble subject's affairs. " Li Xiangnan kowtowed once more, feeling suspicious that the Emperor was being too quiet.

If the nearby emperor were to hear about this, not only would he be angered, but he would also have some expression. Yet, the Yan Emperor still maintained his posture and expression.

Li Xiangnan didn't even reveal an extra smile or a fraction of a smile. The suspicion in his heart was only suspicion, but now that the Emperor didn't say a word, he didn't dare to move an inch.

After a long while, the Yan Emperor let out a light sigh. "If you have nothing else, leave!"

The fact that the Emperor had never brought up this matter at all made Li Xiangnan somewhat puzzled. He didn't seem angry at all when the Emperor looked at him.

It gave him the feeling that what he had just said was just an illusion. However, the pain from his knee reminded her that everything that had just happened was not a dream, but a dream.

"Your majesty." Li Xiangnan called out again, seemingly unresigned. However, the emperor directly closed his eyes in exhaustion and said, "You may leave!" Even though his tone was calm, it revealed a domineering aura that caused one to be afraid of looking down on him.

"Yes." Li Xiang Nan knew that it was impossible for him to change his mind today. Thinking of this, he did not delay any further and directly bowed as he retreated.

When Liu Yi Chen heard the news about Li Die, he became even more anxious. He brought along a cold cloud as he headed towards the mansion of the Grand General.

Arriving at the mansion of the Grand General, Liu Yi Chen didn't go in, but he was shouting loudly in front of the gate. When people in front of the gate heard Liu Yi Chen's voice, many people immediately gathered here.

The Grand General had just opened the gate a crack, but when he saw the formation, he went back into hiding.

Liu Yi Chen stood in front of his door, talking to himself more and more happily. When some of the ordinary people gathered in front of his door heard his explanation, some of them took out baskets of vegetables and threw them at the closed door.

The news of Liu Yi Chen making a ruckus in the general's manor reached the ears of the Yan Emperor, but there was still no trace of anger on his face. Only a pair of dark, deep eyes like an ancient well flashed for a moment before he recovered.

"Your majesty?" Eunuch Cao could not tell what he meant and asked.

"Send the order to capture Li Die and Liu Yi Chen here. I would like to see just what kind of beauty she is to actually make people become so angry that it's only for the sake of a beautiful woman." Even though it was just a joke, the words from Yan Emperor caused his Eunuch Cao to shiver.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Cao nodded his head in agreement before leaving immediately, bringing along the imperial edict he had just prepared with him to the manor of the Grand Marshal. After he read through the imperial edict, he brought Li Die and Liu Yi Chen over to the imperial palace.

"Your Majesty, Liu Yi Chen and Li Die have arrived." Eunuch Cao's voice carried a bit of caution as he probed the situation, causing the emperor to frown. He hated to be disturbed by others the most, but now that he had been the one to give orders, he could not help but feel stifled.

With a hint of impatience, he said, "Bring them in."

"This commoner, this commoner, my daughter, greets the Emperor. Long live the Emperor." Li Die and Liu Yi Chen were kneeling on the ground, their heads bowed low so that others would feel the word 'noble' for no reason at all. It had nothing to do with their current situation or appearance.

"I've heard that there's someone who would be so angry that he would take revenge on behalf of his beauties." The two of them did not feel relieved. They only felt that the pressure on their heads made them feel as if they were suffocating.

Li Die was a weak girl to begin with. She didn't have Liu Yi Chen's martial arts skills, so she naturally had no way to deal with this kind of pressure. Her small face turned pale, and she tightly pursed her lips, revealing her stubbornness.

Liu Yi Chen's heart was in pain, but he didn't dare to do anything because they were in the main hall. He could only shake her hand, which was hanging by her side, as if he was comforting her.

Li Die knew what he was thinking and immediately gave him a faint smile. Seeing that she was fine, Liu Yi Chen relaxed a little and raised her head to look at the bright yellow light on the Dragon Throne, "Your Majesty, you are flattering me. This humble one only wants to take back the woman I love. "How did it become like this?"

"Stand up!" The Yan Emperor looked at Liu Yi Chen with an obvious smile. It was obvious that he liked him. However, the Emperor's prestige was not to be offended.

"Thank you, your majesty." Liu Yi Chen's indifferent voice rang out, supporting Li Die as she stood up.
