A soft, cute, and the only silver-blue little mermaid in the galaxy meets the cold and invincible God of War, the Crown Prince of the Empire.
Qiao You, a former Royal Highness from ancient Ea...
Lyra.
With the cooperation of Link and Wu Si, numerous media outlets gathered in the lobby of the high-end sanatorium.
With the deliberate hype, in addition to various official media outlets, many ordinary citizens also came to join in the fun.
"Mr. Lin, we can begin." Wu Si had only just learned what Mr. Lin wanted to do.
This was a brilliant move; it brought out all the thieves who came to test the waters and interrogated them publicly, even using a live online broadcast.
In the interstellar era, interrogation methods are extremely sophisticated. With the aid of technology, it is virtually impossible for a criminal to escape unscathed once captured; they must confess the truth.
But normally, people don't bother to talk about these things openly, so who would have thought Link would use this trick?
After all, saving face is more important than the truth.
Link deliberately made his white shirt look messy, his dark circles were very obvious, and his face was pale, which showed that he had not rested well during this period of time, further confirming that Helian Jue's condition was serious.
"Let's go." Link stood up and walked outside with Wu Si.
Wu Si was eager to witness this unprecedented interrogation.
Link walked steadily up to the platform, facing the crowd.
The murmurs from the audience gradually subsided and quiet returned.
"Ladies and gentlemen, hello!" Link walked steadily onto the stage and said loudly.
This voice, with its varied intonation, attracted everyone's attention.
"I am Link, the Crown Prince's bodyguard."
"His Highness the Crown Prince is seriously injured and has come here for treatment and recuperation. In the four or five days since he arrived, countless people have tried to sneak into his ward to assassinate him." Link said, his voice trembling with emotion, as if he were wiping away tears.
The media and journalists in the audience were quite surprised. It was common knowledge that the struggle for the throne was fierce and brutal, but this was the first time that these matters had been brought up in the open.
"Bring them up." Link paused for a moment, waiting for everyone to process what had just happened, and then signaled the security guards to bring up the people they had arrested a couple of days ago.
The largest media groups on Lyra, sitting in the front row, were all discussing it.
"What are they trying to do? It looks like they're serious."
"A public trial? Are they going to go that far?"
"Aren't all those dirty secrets about the royal succession tacitly known? Why are they just laid bare like this?"
"What can't be made public? If you ask me, the percentage of public vote in royal succession should be increased."
"His Highness the Crown Prince's guards were probably driven to desperation to do this."
"Over the years, His Highness the Crown Prince has been leading troops to the front lines to fight, creating an absolutely safe external environment for the empire. In the end, he was ambushed by the Second Prince, who even colluded with space pirates."
"Given that His Highness the Crown Prince is seriously injured and his life hangs in the balance, and with so many people sent by various forces to assassinate him, even a clay figure would have some temper."
...
As usual, Link gave everyone time to discuss the matter before announcing the start of the trial.
An hour later, all the parties involved had been identified.
"The Leiden family? They even sent two groups of people. The Second Prince has been demoted to a commoner. They still haven't given up?"
"Be demoted to a commoner? As long as His Highness the Crown Prince dies and cannot inherit the throne, leaving only the Second Prince, his succession will be a matter of course."
"If that's the case, then the Leiden family must have been involved when the Second Prince bribed space pirates to kill the Prince."
"Of course, otherwise where do you think that money came from? The Second Prince spent 10 billion interstellar coins to hire an assassin, where did that money come from? The royal family doesn't have that much money."
"Indeed! The Leiden family is an old family that has existed for hundreds of years and has accumulated great wealth."
Many people also sighed, "If Empress Qingyue were still alive, perhaps..."
His words were full of regret and longing.
Besides the Leiden family, there were also the Alliance and Prince Weiss.
"Prince Weiss, who is this man?"
"You don't know this person? He was the one Prince Weiss tried to forcibly take His Highness's little spirit pet from the Spirit Pet Pavilion."
"They probably took advantage of the chaos to kick the Crown Prince while he was down."
"The alliance is still harboring malicious intentions! They intend to send someone to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince!"
"If you ask me, we should lead our troops all the way to White Star and teach them a lesson!"
"The Empire... Alas, apart from His Highness and General Shenyang, the Empire has no other capable generals..."
Link's outburst quickly became known throughout the entire empire.
The search results on StarNet exploded, especially the hashtag "The Leiden family plotted to murder His Highness the Crown Prince," which immediately rose to the top spot and remained there for a long time.
It remained at the top of the StarNet trending search list for a full five days.
The Leiden family's businesses were also significantly affected, and indignant citizens began to boycott them.
Of course, Eleanor and others also played a role in this; the bigger the commotion, the more it would force Leidenhon to take action.
And what they were waiting for was for Leidenhong to make a move.
"Sister Nuonuo, Brother Lin said that Helian Tu has seen the public opinion and wants to cooperate with Laidenhong again. He wants us to set the tone."
"It leads to the matter of Leidenhong wanting to become emperor himself."
Eleanor was driving the Leidens crazy. That old geezer, with his arrogance and haughtiness, was always acting all high and mighty.
She had only met him once, and her disgust for him had already reached its peak.
As it turns out, this old geezer actually wanted to harm His Highness?
————
Capital Star, Helian Tu's residence.
"Your Highness, are you really going to do this?" Arad asked in disbelief. "Back then, Leidenhon was..."
Helian Tu, sitting in a high position, was well aware that everything he had now was a gift from the Byreden family.
However, if Helian Jue really dies, then he will be the only candidate to succeed him.
