She Holds the World After Being Reborn

In the residence of the Duke of Zhenguo, the legitimate young miss, known for her icy demeanor, had transformed overnight. She, who usually regarded no one, woke up to confront anyone she saw with a few harsh words, using her frail body to intimidate so much that no one dared to touch her. Afterwards, this legitimate young miss began taking on retainers, nurturing powerful officials, engaging in commerce, and recruiting troops… Every act so shocking and audacious, it defied the norms and provoked fear in all who spoke of her! Yan Wanqing was seen as an enchantress and a disaster by the people, a thorn in the flesh and a nail in the eye that the ministers wanted desperately removed, an entity everyone shunned as if she were a venomous snake. Only the Crown Prince Mingyue, descending from the divine altar, in the dark, godless alleys, grasped her neck and repeatedly asked her, "Will you marry me or not?"

Chapter 72: Sister, I Trust You

Yan Liushi had written about the eight murders on the Imperial Edict of Conviction, and when Yan Wanqing saw Aunt Song, a chill had settled over her entire being, thankfully Huai Yu was by her side to hold her down.

"If there's no problem, let her press her fingerprint," Yan An urged from the side.

Yan Wanqing knew all too well that this was but a façade of peace, yet she had no choice but to comply, her heart filling with immense sorrow.

With an expressionless face, she passed it over, and Yan An took it to press Yan Liushi's fingerprint. He secured the Imperial Edict of Conviction, planning to head to Dali Temple first thing the next morning.

Just then.

Outside, a series of steady and urgent footsteps were heard, as a small, blood-covered figure burst in.

Yan An stepped back in fright.

The figure appeared at the doorway like an apparition, and upon closer inspection, Yan Wanqing realized it was her fifth younger sister.
