?Chapter 616: Chapter 613: A Risky Military Move_1 Chapter 616: Chapter 613: A Risky Military Move_1 “So, the Empress used you from beginning to end! Yet, you are willing to disregard Madam Dong, who sacrificed her life to clean up your mess, for such a woman who plotted against your whole Fu family! Such filial piety truly makes me see you in a new light.”

Bai Qingyan spoke in this damp, cold, and old room, her tone remaining flat.

After speaking, Bai Qingyan asked again, “This is the last time I ask you. The lives of your entire Fu family rest on your words. Did the Empress mention in the letter sent to coerce you to return to the Anping Camp that His Majesty’s days were numbered? Will you tell the truth?”

“You suspect…that His Majesty’s fall from the horse was the Empress’s doing?” Fu Ruoxi’s voice was choked and hoarse.

Bai Qingyan sneered, stood up, and brushed the straw from her legs. “I thought you would ask whether I could save your entire Fu family, but I didn’t expect your heart was still with the Empress! Forget it… I originally came here out of pity for Madam Dong, but it seems I came for nothing.”

Saying this, Bai Qingyan turned to leave. Fu Ruoxi hurriedly crawled forward on her knees, almost tripping over the chains on her feet, using one arm to support herself. She cried loudly, “Yes! The Empress mentioned in her letter… that His Majesty’s days were numbered and ordered me to return to Dadu City with the Anping Camp to support King Xin’s ascension!”

In the adjacent cell, Lu Jin looked back at the recorder sitting by the lamp… the Registrar of the Court of Judicial Review diligently recording Fu Ruoxi’s words. Seeing him jot down every word on the bamboo slip, Lu Jin nodded and looked at Quan Yu.

Quan Yu clenched his fists tightly, already full of admiration for Bai Qingyan.
