Zhao Ende, the family head of the Zhao family, was a second-rank official. Seeing his own daughter being carried into the Daming Palace in this manner, he gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, it is my failure in discipline. Please, quell your anger. Whatever the 'Daqi Law' stipulates, please judge accordingly!"
The reputation of Zhao Lan is now completely ruined, and it's useless for her to stay in the Zhao Residence.
Even so, it's better for her to be locked up in prison to prevent her from doing something foolish and bringing disaster to the Zhao family.
"Your wife was also involved in this matter," Emperor Yong'an reminded him, "According to the 'Daqi Law,' your wife should also be sent to Sky Prison for a period of time."
"At Your Majesty's disposal!" Zhao Ende said firmly.
Such a family head's mother is dispensable after all.
Bold and audacious, indeed, but so foolish as to be caught red-handed in such stupidity, unworthy of being the mother of the Zhao family!
