The emperor's order was carried out vigorously and resolutely. Within an hour, the Dugu Mansion was raided, and the whole Dugu family was imprisoned. The news that the queen was imprisoned caused quite an uproar in Yongjing.

"Why worry so much? Good or bad is just a ranking." Mu Jieyan shrugged nonchalantly.
"If dad sees you like this, he may not be able to take care of you." Mu Jieyu couldn't help but shook his head when he saw that Mu Jieyan didn't care at all.
