Soul-searching Interrogation; Joyous Immortal Palace

Wei Zhi was a bit dazed by the imperial decree, his mind momentarily blank!

Until Gu Lan effortlessly cut through the crowd and approached him, handing the decree to him, "Brother Wei, I've come to interrogate the prisoner. Take me inside to have a look."

Only then did Wei Zhi react!

Staring at the decree in his hand, he hurriedly picked it up, swallowing hard and looking at Gu Lan with a shocked and unbelieving gaze.

"Brother Gu, are you... an imperial envoy?!"

"As good as real."

Gu Lan helplessly smiled. He didn't want to deal with this; after the interrogation, he still had to report back to the palace. There were a bunch of troublesome matters, delaying the time spent with his wife...

Unfortunately, he had been implicated by that female Emperor, who seemed determined to exploit him until he was thoroughly drained!
