The Imperial Censor noticed Xue Yan looking over.

“You must be Xue Yan.” The Minister of Justice and Imperial Censor hurried over and cupped their hands.

They have not gone through the evidence, so they could not address him as His Highness the Crown Prince until he was proven to be the Crown Prince.

After everything they went through, he was very likely His Highness the Crown Prince. In addition, they were all scholars and usually paid great attention to etiquette. They were impressed with how he carried himself. Even so, they still went to greet him.

Xue Yan bowed back.

The Minister of Justice and Imperial Censor were quite surprised by Xue Yan’s bearing. They were certain that even if they didn’t investigate this matter, this child in front of them was definitely Da Lings Crown Prince.

Empress Dowager Yunzi alighted from the carriage and was supported upstairs to rest in the inn.

The Imperial Censor was also unable to hold on any longer, and was helped to the room that had been prepared for him to rest.

The Minister of Justice did not need anyone to help him up, but he had suffered a lot of minor injuries and was very tired. Naturally, he went to rest in the inn.

Shao Zhongxi was in charge of Quanping Inn, so Jiang Yue and Xue Yan didn’t have to worry about the three elders’ safety.

Empress Dowager Yunzi had also said that they would only discuss the situation tomorrow morning, so they would probably receive the evidence tomorrow and have to wait until dawn.

Then, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan left Quanping Inn and returned to their shop.

As for Zou Shisi, he went to find his own place to live.

With Jiang Yue around, there was no need for anyone else to escort Xue Yan.

It was closing to a quarter to midnight when they left Quanping Inn. The shops on both sides of the street were dark. Everyone was asleep.

Xue Yan did not wait for Jiang Yue to ask and spoke in a suppressed voice, “The reason why those people wanted to assassinate my grandmother the moment they saw her must be because of the late Emperor. Before he died he called all the civil and military officials and left behind a decree, giving my grandmother the power to depose the Emperor and establish a new Emperor should she find one that is more befitting. It also gave my grandmother the power to govern on behalf of the Emperor and the power to mobilize troops without the Emperor’s final command.”

“l see.” Jiang Yue nodded. If she died, the current Emperor would technically die as well. As long as Empress Dowager Yunzi gave the word, the throne would not fall to Prince Ying.

“Also,” Xue Yan continued, “The three thousand Cloud Guards that the Defender General trained before his death are capable of fighting a hundred enemies each. They are in the Empress Dowager’s hands.”

Cloud Guards?

Jiang Yue began to understand why the Empress Dowager had been given the alias Yunzi.

“In my previous life, when they learned that the Empress Dowager had suddenly died, all three thousand Cloud Guards were willing to be buried with the Empress Dowager. A person without a master does not live in the world.”

The level of loyalty…

Jiang Yue was filled with veneration.

“Previously, we were certain that in your previous life, your father, grandmother, the West Garrison General, and the others were all killed because Emperor Qing exposed everything to Consort Yi. Then, the Ji family took advantage of this and captured them all. When your grandmother died, the sudden news must have taken the Cloud Guards off- guard and they must have felt lost. Therefore, the three thousand Cloud Guards became ownerless and all chose to be buried with her. In this life, we must ensure that something like this won’t happen. Your grandmother must find a new master for them so that they won’t end up willingly killing themselves.”

“Yes.” Xue Yan nodded. He thought so too.

The 3,000 Cloud Guards were given to his grandmother by the Defender General, so his grandmother could naturally give them to someone else when the time came..
