"What!?"
Upon hearing that Su Qinglan had been arrested, Shang Ruyi's face showed a look of surprise, and she immediately asked, "What crime did Doctor Su commit? Why was she arrested?"
"Collusion with assassins, attempting treason."
"Assassins?"
"Correct, the assassins that appeared in the Hot Spring Palace."
"Doctor Su colluded with the assassins in the Hot Spring Palace? How is that possible!?"
Shang Ruyi looked incredulous: "General Lou, Lord Yan, Doctor Su is cautious and loyal to the court. I hope you verify the facts thoroughly and don't wrong a good person."
Yan Shaoxuan lowered his head, not daring to speak.
However, Lou Yingxiong smiled and said, "Don't worry, Princess, we are acting under orders and will naturally uncover the truth."
"..."
"Although this 'truth' may be difficult for some to accept."
Shang Ruyi was taken aback: "What do you mean?"
Lou Yingxiong said, "Princess, do you know who Vice Minister Pei was secretly meeting in the Feishuang Palace?"
