with me would be worth it."She was not afraid of death. The Liu family was terrifying!The dishes on the family table, which originally looked delicious, suddenly seemed like ferocious beasts to Mrs. L...Mu Yunhe absolutely refused to move from her son for even a step. She pushed Fang Jinshi and Yulian hard, and at the moment the board fell, she suddenly burst forth with immense strength, pressing down on Zong Bai, holding him tightly against her body.

Fang Jinshi and Yu Lian needn't worry so much, their mother was already getting on in years, and her health had never been as good as others. Fang Jinshi spent countless thoughts every year taking care of Mu's health.

How could she possibly withstand such a heavy board.

"Mother, no!"

Zong Bai desperately tried to shake off his mother clinging to him. He would rather die here today than see his mother get hurt on his behalf.

"Please, Mother, leave your son's body."

The guards carrying out the execution showed no mercy despite their struggles. The palm-width board was about to strike Mu Shi's back when Fang Jinshu and Yulian, seeing this, rushed forward, wanting to use their own bodies to shield Mu Shi.

At this sight, everyone's hearts tightened. They didn't expect this family to be so deeply affectionate and loyal.

Just as the board came down, Fang Jinshi pulled with all her might, twisting her back to shield Yu Lian beneath her. She squeezed her eyes shut, ready to grit her teeth and endure the searing pain of the blow.

She thought that anyway she had Xiao Lu, even if she was injured and returned to the Lingquan space, she could recover quickly. But the Lingquan space couldn't let anyone other than her in. Once these people at home were seriously injured, they definitely wouldn't recover as fast as her.

But the expected pain didn't come. Fang Jinshi only heard a gasp from around her. She opened her eyes and turned her head, seeing Zong Yu's tall figure standing in front of her.

He didn't just take the beating passively, but instead grabbed it with one hand and flung it away with force.

"Get out!" Zong Yu shouted angrily.

Mingming only uttered a single word yet it instilled an inexplicable sense of fear in the executioner, causing him to unconsciously take two steps back.

"They chose to accept this, so what do you mean by stopping the execution now" Zong Pingchuan said angrily.

"Finally decided to stop being a nuisance"

Zong Yu gave him a cold glance, then turned around to pull up Fang Jinxiu and her younger sister. The two hurriedly helped Mu Shi back up.

"Don't worry, I've got this."

Zongyu's eyes seemed a little off.

Today, he appeared in the palace as a servant. In fact, Fang Jinshu also didn't understand why Ayu was hiding his identity. He should have military achievements after fighting in the border for so many years.

Fu Ming once said that he was the chief contributor to the Western Zhou War. Logically, his status should not be low. He should have been rewarded when he returned to the capital.

Because the two of them were currently having a falling out, Fang Jinshi didn't ask him a word.

Since he concealed his identity, there must be his reasons. But at this moment, Fang Jinshu through Zong Yu's eyes understood what he wanted to do.

Isn't he exposing himself by doing that

Fang Jinxiu frowned fiercely, but still reached out and grabbed Zong Yu's sleeve.

Zongyu turned his head back. Although the couple didn't say a word, they understood each other through their eyes.

Seeing his wife worry about him, Zongyu himself found it strange. He was actually very happy inside, happier than winning a battle.

He reached out and gently patted Fang Jinshu's hand, his voice softening unconsciously.

"Don't worry, it's just a little bit of trouble, no big deal."

After finishing his words, he turned back, his eyes instantly changing. He had been so gentle when looking at his daughter-in-law just moments ago, but now he looked at Zong Pingchuan with such coldness.

A complete 180 degrees change in expression.

"A commoner sues an official and demands he be whipped, but what if he wasn't a commoner"

Families of soldiers who have made first-class military achievements on the battlefield, according to the Da Xi dynasty's law, are exempt from punishment when they sue anyone.

“I'm right, aren't I, Prime Minister”

Zongyu was so bold, his gaze swept past Zong Pingchuan and landed directly on Yuan Buyu.

Everyone was shocked. They had always suspected Zong Yu, and besides knowing that he was the eldest son of Zong Pingchuan from the countryside, everyone felt something was off about his bearing.

How could someone who grew up in the countryside have such an understated yet sharp aura Now, as he stood up to speak, it was like a sword being drawn, intimidating everyone.

Yuan Buyu was no less shocked by Zong Yu's reputation than anyone else. It's just that he had long been accustomed to hiding his emotions, and if he were to be so easily seen through, he wouldn't have survived countless times before becoming prime minister.

"There is a precedent for this." He put down his glass of wine, turned his head, and fixed Zongyu with a serious gaze.

Even now, as the banquet progresses, this is still the first time the prime minister has looked at anyone else directly.

"The premise is that the person who achieves first-class military merit on the battlefield must come from your family.”

Zong Yu let out a sneer and glanced at Zhao Yun in the crowd.

Zhao Yun's scalp went numb. Yu Ge had gone all out, not even bothering with Master Gu's orders.

Does he know what it means to expose his identity in front of these officials and the Holy One No, Gege definitely knows, but he has no other choice.her angry.Moreover, Zong Yulian is now very anxious. She brought Su Yusheng, such a big trouble, back to her family, and she doesn't know how to solve it right now.None dared to disobey Zong Yu's word...
