"Where's Marquis Dingyuan? Where did he go? He caused this. Why didn't he appear and why were you asked to come over?" That person shouted.
"Marquis Dingyuan isn't a prisoner. We're from the Marquis Dingyuan's Residence. He's Marquis Dingyuan's son and I'm his granddaughter. It's the same for us to come," Ning Yue explained with a frown.
After explaining, Ning Yue suddenly understood that the person in front of her had been used as a tool.
"Lord, they're from the Marquis Dingyuan's Residence. They're clearly criminals. Why aren't they detained? Are you planning to protect them?" the man said.
The minister frowned. Regardless of whether Ning Yue and Jiang Ying were people of high status, he had no right to detain them because they had not been convicted.
Moreover, the emperor had just made it very clear that he wanted the Nine Gate Inspector to invite someone from the Marquis Dingyuan's residence. He did not say who he wanted to invite.
