There was chaos during morning court when General Zhan proposed to impeach the Prince, citing misconduct and bad moral code as reasons why he was not worthy of the Eastern Palace.

The ministers were in an uproar, but General Zhan presented evidence following his proposal, which forced the ministers to open their eyes and see things clearly.

The Emperor was furious, and the Prince was removed from his post on the spot. Morning court was like a grand play, and the ministers were terrified when they returned home.

After all, the thing the Emperor considered most taboo was internal conflict. Once all the things he had done were revealed, the Crown Prince was immediately sent into house arrest and could not come out without the Emperor's permission.

General Zhan, who was at the center of the storm, was the calmest person in the play. He accepted everything quietly, regardless of whether it was the Emperor throwing things in anger, or the Prince's hateful gaze. However, when the Emperor asked him to follow him into the imperial study, he looked reluctant.

The Emperor already knew these things beforehand, and his anger had been vented long ago. Today, he had only been acting. He even made fun of Zhan Shaoxi when they entered the imperial study, "Showing such a disgruntled expression on your face when called into the imperial study, later on, will you not even attend morning court?"

Zhan Shaoxi quickly knelt down and said, "This minister would not dare!"

The Emperor was not really angry with him, and spoke with some amusement, "Before marrying my royal sister to you, I was worried that she would not be happy with a cold ice cube like you. Unexpectedly, she really had some means and was able to turn a piece of steel that has been tempered a hundred times into soft putty. You look like you would be happy to go back and accompany her all day if I remove you from your post."

Zhan Shaoxi was still kneeling. Only, he had a smile on his face. "That's not possible. The Princess would be unhappy with my low salary. If the Emperor dismisses me, the Princess will drive me out of the house."

The Emperor laughed loudly. He had known about the way the two were stuck together and in love from a long time ago. "Alright. Things are winding up here, and you can spare more time to accompany my royal sister."

"Yes."

The Emperor never liked to talk to Zhan Shaoxi about state affairs, and would always just order him to do things. Even though he showed great trust in him, he was actually still on guard, but Zhan Shaoxi did not care about this. Although he had the blood of the Zhan family flowing through his veins, he had always felt at odds with the idea of continuing the Zhan family bloodline, not to mention that he had no respect for the heavenly imperial family.

A few days later, Zhan Shaoxi received a message from an informant. The Mingyue Princess had made her move, escaping from the marriage procession and coincidentally finding an injured man by a stream.

Xue Ling, who had been using the system to monitor the heroine, really felt that plot inertia was really amazing. He had already changed the plot to this point, and yet the Sect Leader of the Demonic Sect still managed to show up so conveniently??

But, the meeting between the heroine and the Sect Leader was different from how it was supposed to be. In the original plot, when the Heroine met with the Sect Leader, he had been a beggar with no memory who had lost his martial arts. He had been very naive and ignorant, and easy to get close to. The heroine kindly brought him back, and took him along with her after discovering he was a beautiful man under all that grime.
