Shang Xiche's face was ashen, his eyes flashing with a cold, vulture-like light. He said sternly, "This is the imperial court, not a marketplace where shrewish women are ranting! What kind of decorum is this! Princess Chonghe, you said the Crown Prince attempted to assault you, is that true?"
Hearing Shang Xiche's rather impolite question, Ji Fengyao stopped pretending to be stupid and angrily said, "If it becomes a fact, I will kill him directly. Why would I spare his dog's life!"
"Since there are no facts and no witnesses, then this matter is entirely your own words and cannot be believed!" Shang Xiche's attitude was also cold and firm, and he said forcefully, "But you harmed the Crown Prince, which is an established fact, and your crime is also an established fact!"
On his way back from the Di Kingdom, Shang Xiye spent his time mentally preparing himself.
But he didn't expect that the moment of falling out would come so quickly!
Shang Xiche's cold-heartedness, ruthlessness, ridiculous words and actions are outrageous!
Shang Xiye clenched his fists, which were hidden in his sleeves, and asked in a deep, cold voice: "If it is not true and no witnesses can be found, then one can be innocent; I can hardly imagine that the Emperor would say such a thing in front of the entire court."
What Your Majesty intends to do, Your Majesty knows, and I know;
Everyone in the court and even the common people knew it!
"You want the military power I hold? I'll give it to you. But using a woman as a pretext for blackmail will bring shame upon our ancestors and make the world look down on our Great Zhao!"
That's all.
Shang Xiye took the two beast talismans out of his sleeve (storage ring) and threw them hard in front of the hall, where they clattered loudly.
The court officials all seemed to hear the resounding slap that the Ninth Prince had unwittingly delivered to the Emperor's face, and their faces burned with embarrassment for Shang Xiche.
Indeed, everyone knows the emperor's intentions.
But they never expected that the emperor would be so shameless, openly saying such unfair and undignified things, and openly using the bandit as a hostage.
"To plot against the Crown Prince is a crime punishable by death," Shang Xiye said firmly. He then took out an item from his sleeve (storage ring) and said, "This is the imperial pardon granted to me by the late Emperor. It can pardon me from three death sentences. I'm sure the Emperor will not forget it!"
Today, I, the King, will grant my Queen a special privilege!
Shang Xiche's cold eyes widened again, clearly not expecting that Shang Xiye would not only hand over military power so readily, but also possess such an incredible weapon!
How much favor did the late Emperor of the Great Zhao Dynasty have for him!
"What if the Crown Prince is injured? The Crown Prince is the heir apparent of our Great Zhao!" Shang Xiche still did not let up and pressed on step by step.
Upon hearing this, all the civil and military officials broke out in a cold sweat!
I said, Your Majesty!
Let's stop while we're ahead and not force the Ninth Prince to rebel in anger. You'd better be fine with it!
We have elderly parents to care for and young children to raise, so we won't be able to help you with family matters!
Ji Fengyao sneered: "Now that you know the Crown Prince is the heir apparent, you're trying to force your imperial aunt. That's what the heir apparent does."
Since the Emperor has already punished me, this matter has nothing to do with me anymore.
The Crown Prince should also bear the consequences of his own injury!
"But you were the one who poisoned the Crown Prince!" Shang Xiche was furious. Being confronted like this by the Ninth Prince and this bandit in court made him feel like he had no imperial experience at all.
Ji Fengyao glanced contemptuously at Shang Xiche and the Crown Prince, and used her spiritual power to raise her voice loudly: "It's like the Crown Prince trying to stab me with a knife, but because I was lucky, he didn't succeed; while the Crown Prince was particularly unlucky and cut his own hand, and then you forced me to pay for the Crown Prince's medicine."
Your Majesty, you and the Prince are both descendants of the late Emperor;
Everyone, please show some respect to the late emperor!
Don't make things too difficult for the late emperor in front of our ancestors!
