No one expected that at this critical juncture, Fang Qingyue would dare to bring up her father's old case.
Today, if she dared to bring up this matter again in front of the emperor, wouldn't she be asking for trouble?
Upon hearing this, the emperor's expression instantly turned cold, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
He looked down at Fang Qingyue from above, his tone tinged with anger: "Fang Qingyue, your father's crimes have long been proven beyond doubt."
"Now, you actually dare to bring up this matter in front of me. Do you want to overturn the verdict?"
Fang Qingyue's heart tightened, knowing that the emperor was indeed suspicious and furious.
But she had no choice. If she didn't argue, she might lose the opportunity forever.
She quickly regained her composure, still lying on the ground, her voice low but firm: "Your Majesty, my father was indeed wronged."

If I stop now, I will never have the chance to vindicate my father.
A glint of determination flashed in her eyes. She looked up at the emperor, her voice filled with a tenacity that refused to admit defeat. "Your Majesty is absolutely right. Qingyue also knows in her heart that it is not right to mention family matters at this time."
"But Qingyue cannot let go of the injustice done to her father."
"Your Majesty, my father has been loyal to the court and has served with integrity and honesty for many years. How could he have the intention of treason?
