Dugu Chanyi frowned, wanting to speak.
But at that moment, a voice from the platform reached them before she could speak.
"Release Chancellor Cheng first."
The voice carried a slightly youthful and pure tone.
Zhao Lingfei's daughters and Li Bai turned their gaze to the inconspicuous Li Wangque, who was caught between them and Zhang Huizhi.
The young boy in the dragon robe was staring intently at the four Imperial Guards below the stage.
The guards hesitated, glancing at Li Mingyi, who wore a blank expression.
Currently, Dugu Chanyi and Li Mingyi were holding the reins of governance under the guise of senior regency, and these guards were under the command of Prince Li Mingyi.
If it were in private, they could pretend not to hear the young emperor's orders, or refuse by saying 'His Majesty is underage and should follow the arrangements of his elders.' But now, in front of so many eyes, Li Wangque, after all, held the title of the Emperor of Great Li.
