Su Rong sat in Yan Huisheng's carriage, traveling with him to the Sky Prison of the Ministry of Justice.
The crime committed by Imperial Concubine Zhen was heinous. The emperor had decreed her death, with the Minister of Justice putting his own head on the line. Hence, no one could enter the Ministry without an imperial edict, not even a fly.
Crown Prince Yan Huisheng naturally has the imperial edict. Upon his arrival at the Sky Prison, the Minister of Justice personally received him.
The Minister of Justice has been practically living in his office, having dared not to even return home. His department had been held responsible for a death in the Sky Prison, causing even the Duke Residence and Rui'an King Residence to distrust him, along with the Dali Temple and the Capital Government Office. His official hat was hanging by a thread, and if he wished to keep his position, he had to go all out.
