Jiang Dahai made a thorough review of the battle situation in his estate and ordered it to be cleaned up. He led his men to personally enter the palace and report the incident. If it were to happen again... he feared that Mo Heng would not allow the Xiao family to occupy this throne any longer!
Upon hearing the news, Xiao Guangjing was also deeply shocked and greatly enraged, "How dare someone try to annihilate a family under the very nose of the Emperor, merely on the suspicion of the Marquis of Xining? The audacity of using the Imperial Guards' name is utterly preposterous!"
"It is my dereliction of duty. Please punish me, Emperor!" The security of Capital Jingcheng was under his jurisdiction, and it was his responsibility.
Xiao Guangjing was furious and gave Jiang Dahai ten days to uncover the mastermind behind the scenes.
Jiang Dahai accepted the imperial decree and went to conduct the investigation.
