Seeing this, Song Xingfeng couldn't possibly let him take his daughter. He immediately stepped forward. "Prince Ling..."
"There is no need to say more, General!"
Zhou Junlin was also extremely frustrated, his face devoid of its usual cool elegance. With a dark expression, he flicked his sleeve and turned to leave.
"Your Highness!"
A wave of panic hit Song Xilan. She rose, gathered her skirts, and hurried after him.
'I came to the Ministry of Justice to save my mother. Who knew things would turn out like this? Not only did I fail to rescue Mother, but now they've arrested Song Lianhe!'
'If this hadn't blown up, there might have been a chance to turn things around. But now that Zhou Junlin and Song Lianhe have clashed, the very nature of this affair has changed completely.'
At that moment, Cao Jin lowered his gaze and said to Jing Ye, "Let's go."
As he passed Zhen Yongming, he gave a slight bow. "Lord Zhen, I'll take my leave."
