When everyone saw the two people, they immediately burst into exclamations and discussions.
Aiyou widened his eyes: "Lantlanqiao!?"
Lan Qiao was trembling all over at this moment. She walked behind Lant with her head down.
Why?
She had dinner with her parents last night.
Last night, my mother went to deliver food to my brother who was in solitary confinement...
This morning, her father's soldiers burst into her room, shackled her, and took her away forcefully.
She looked at Ayman and the Third Prince, and her legs suddenly weakened. Father... knew...
Lan Qiao's legs went weak and she almost fell down.
With one hand holding her body steadily, Lan Qiao looked up with tears in her eyes and met her brother's calm gaze.
"Lan Qiao, don't be afraid."
Lant moved his lips, silently telling his sister not to be afraid.
Lan Qiao suddenly shook off Lant's hand, fear mixed with anger.
It was wrong, everything was wrong. From the day she saw her brother attempted murder and chose to cover it up for him, everything was wrong.
Lan Qiao fell to her knees with a thud. She raised her head and looked up at her father who had always doted on her.
What made her despair was that the look her father gave her was no longer filled with the affection he had before, but only with scrutiny and sizing.
Lant looked at the hand that Lan Qiao had shaken away, and said nothing. He just knelt down with Lan Qiao.
"Dwarf Man."
The Dwarf King raised his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, then looked at Dwarf Man.
Ayman stood up and walked onto the stage. She knelt straight down, her eyes filled with tears and determination. "Eight years ago, my brother Chidan didn't have an accident while forging!"
"Chidan was pushed into the furnace by the eldest prince Lant himself!"
Wow…
The crowd was shocked.
Lant's face twisted for a moment, his eyes rolled around, and his originally uneasy expression calmed down again.
That thing can't be there. It's been dealt with by Eric.
Without that thing, there is no evidence.
Lant calmed down and knelt silently.
"Where's the evidence?"
The dwarf king asked again.
Ayman opened the small cloth bag in his hand and took out a palm-sized copper object from it.
The moment Lant saw that thing, his mind went blank.
He started to panic at this moment. Could it be that... Eric took this thing out?
No...it's impossible. If that's the case, there's no way to explain it. Who else made a deal with Eric besides him?
The statue was in his forge room, and Ayman was outside the palace and had no way of touching it.
Rand was so frightened that his hands and feet went limp.
"Rant, I'll give you a second and final chance."
The Dwarf King leaned forward and said calmly, "Tell me, are you related to Chidan's affairs?"
Lant met the Dwarf King's emotionless eyes, and the suppressed uneasiness in his heart gradually rose.
Could it be that my father did this?
impossible!
To get something from Eric, you have to trade with him.
Rand knew his father very well, and there was no way he would make a deal with Eric.
The Dwarf King Joel is the most upright and greatest king in the history of the Dwarf King!
He would not and would not bother to make a deal with Eric!
Lant calmed down and said, "Father, I didn't do it."
The dwarf king lowered his eyes: "Okay."
Aiman sneered and held up the delicate brass object in her hand: "This is a gift from Chidan. It can record some images!"
"On the day Chidan got into trouble, I happened to go to his forging room that morning. When I left, I forgot to take it with me..."
"That's why it recorded... the entire process of Chidan's accident!"
The crowd was shocked.
When Chidan was very young, his talent surpassed his three brothers. It can be said that if Chidan was still in good health now, Lant would not be able to win in the assessment.
Lant's fingers squeezed tighter and tighter.
"Lant was jealous that Chidan had better talent than him! That's why he wanted to kill Chidan!"
Dwarf Man took a few steps forward, twisted the little thing, and placed it on the table.
Soon, blurry images were projected onto a special metal plate.
The moment these images appeared, Lant's straight back bent.
Chi Sui looked at this little gadget that looked like a projector but had very, very poor projection effects, with a complicated expression.
Lant did push the child named Chidan into the furnace.
When Chidan was struggling, his body had not yet been completely submerged in the iron slurry. Lant then used an iron fork to poke Chidan's neck and pressed him into the iron slurry.
But at this moment, a scream was heard outside the window.
Looking at the blurred lines, it should be Lan Qiao when she was a child.
It was because of Lan Qiao's appearance that Lant had to let go of the iron fork and chase Lan Qiao outside the window.
The screen ends here.
All the court officials gasped.
Lan Qiao could no longer hold on and lay on the ground crying. She admitted that she saw what her brother did and also admitted that she had concealed the matter.
The Dwarf King looked at his two most beloved children solemnly, his expression remained unchanged.
The result was already clear. When the Dwarf King was about to announce the punishment, Lant suddenly stood up.
He looked at the Dwarf King and said word by word: "I did it."
"It's me."
The Dwarf King looked at the child, whose face showed no remorse, and his lips moved: "Why?"
"Why?"
Lant sneered: "I am the queen's child. According to the rules, I should be the crown prince."
"But because my bloodline is impure, I can't get anything."
