“That’s right.” Masako Izumi nodded, a hint of determination in her eyes.
Now she has no way back and can only go down a dark path.
As for Su Ruojin, Izumi Masako believed that as the Princess Consort of the Great Chu, she would never be affected by her scheme.
She will also apologize to Su Ruojin through her actions.
Deyi Kangren looked at Su Ruojin, "Princess Consort of Great Chu, is there anything else to say?"
Su Ruojin scoffed, "What, you Yamato people can draw conclusions based on just one person's testimony? You Yamato officials must have it so easy, making judgments however you want."
"You!" Deyi Kangren's anger surged.
Tokuyoshi Shingo gave Tokuyoshi Yasuhito a reassuring look, then looked at the kneeling Izumi Masako and asked:
"Your Excellency, do you have any evidence to prove that you gave the Princess Consort of Great Chu two Snake-Snout Hooks? And was the Spirit Charm Orchid refined for you by the Princess Consort of Great Chu?"
Izumi Masako lowered her head and said, “Elder, there are records of the medicinal herbs I delivered to the Princess. These records are in my previous courtyard. I hope the General and Elder will allow Chika to retrieve them so that she can see them at a glance.”
They were brought directly to the side courtyard, and the records were still kept in the Imperial Palace (where the Imperial Palace was located).
"Hojo, you go with the Shangla Gotoshi to get it." Tokuyoshi Yasuhito waved his hand.
Chinatsu Ueno glanced at Masako Izumi, who nodded slightly to her. Chinatsu Ueno bowed and turned to leave.
The two returned shortly after, and Hojo Rin presented a booklet with both hands.
Deyi Kangren opened it and glanced at it, then gestured for Hojo Rin to show it to Su Ruojin.
Huanzhi took the booklet from Su Ruojin and turned to that page for Su Ruojin to see.
This page does indeed record that there are two snake-beak hooks, and at the very end of the booklet there is a signature from Yanluo indicating receipt.
At this time, the Yamato script did not yet use the terms "one" and "two" to express the characters; it still used the Yamato script. The difference between "one" and "two" was significant, so there was no possibility that "one" was later changed to "two".
"Your Highness, is there anything else to say?" Deyi Kangren stared at Su Ruojin.
The snake-kiss hook changed from two to one, and there is no other explanation other than that Su Ruojin turned it into Lingmeizhi.
Su Ruojin glanced at it and then looked away. "Huanzhi, tell them what happened."
These little tricks aren't enough for her.
"Yes, Your Highness."
Huanzhi walked to the center and gestured to a maid to take a candle. Then she turned to the page with the snake-kiss hook written on it and heated it over the flame.
Upon seeing Huanzhi's actions, Izumi Masako's face turned deathly pale.
Before long, new characters appeared on the number of snake-mouth hooks, overlapping with the "two". However, upon closer inspection, it could still be seen that it was "one".
Upon seeing this, Tokuyoshi Yasuhito's expression changed, and he looked at Izumi Masako through gritted teeth, saying, "Lord Odai, how do you explain this?!"
Seeing this, Masako Izumi knew there was nothing more to say in her defense.
She suddenly burst into laughter, looking at Deyi Kangren with no trace of fear in her eyes.
“Deyi Kangren, you cruelly killed my child, and now I have killed your son. It’s fair that a life is worth a life, isn’t it?”
"You!" Deji Yasuhito was furious. He stood up, drew the curved sword from the servant beside him, and slashed directly at the Imperial Palace.
"Ding~"
His knife was opened with a tea lid.
He turned his head sharply, "Who is it!"
He never expected that anyone in Yamato would dare to stop him.
Then you can see that the tea lid on Xiao Yanchu's table is gone, which means he did it.
"Your Highness, what is the meaning of this?"
