Chapter 217 - He Slipped

The large door was opened by the guards whose heads were bent at 45 degrees and Si Ning stepped into the courtroom which was already filled with the governmental Officials who gathered for the morning assembly. The throne was empty which means Xiu Zhicheng wasn't present and Si Ning was glad that Xiu Zhicheng was going to meet him in the courtroom so he had successfully crossed the paths that might block him from attending the court meeting. It was in the middle of the night he ran out of the Jasmine palace into the cold, he was confused about where to go so he walked around a bit and before he knew it, it was already getting bright which means it was time for the court meeting.
