章 69: Chapter 69: Narrow-minded_1

The Imperial Guards stormed in with force, swarming every corner of Wen Yanpei's residence like a tidal wave.

Wen Yanpei's face was deathly pale. He disregarded his unconscious wife and panic-stricken daughter, and hurriedly ran to assess the situation.

He saw the Empress's brother, Xiao Weiliang, walking among his guards with a smile on his face and his hands behind his back. He was strolling leisurely, looking around the scenery of the Wen residence as if enjoying a garden tour.

"Commander Xiao, what is the meaning of this sudden intrusion into my home?" Wen Yanpei stepped forward to bow in greeting before questioning.

Xiao Weiliang looked at him with a contemptuous expression. "Imperial Physician Wen, you've got quite the nerve, daring to deceive His Majesty and take the life of the Prince as a joke."

He tidied his sleeves and chuckled softly, "His Majesty ordered us to take you to the Sky Prison and await trial by the Ministry of Justice."
