Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Luo Xiuran said furiously, “Jian Si, I’ve never met anyone more vicious and shameless than you! You’re the one who colluded with Prince Rui to murder the members of the Jian family! You..

Jian Si remained calm and asked, “Young Marquis Luo, do you have any evidence? Don’t slander others without evidence…

“Oh, so the evidence that Prince Rui mentioned is you, right? You’re going to serve as a witness?” Luo Xiuran asked. Then, he said to Feng Yijin anxiously, “Your Majesty, the Second Miss of Jian family was also present yesterday. She can also serve as a witness!”

Jian Si sneered. “Young Marquis Luo, who doesn’t know that you had entanglements with my sister when we were engaged? Because of that matter, my father’s health was greatly affected. Not only that, Second Sister is now the County Princess’ maidservant. Neither her words nor your words can be trusted.”

“Enough!” Feng Yijin interjected, slamming his hand on his desk angrily. He did not give Luo Xiuran a chance to speak as he glared at Feng Wei’an and said, “That place is under your control, but so many bandits were there, resulting in Marquis Jian Zhong’s death. Not only that, Princess Consort Rui and the child in her womb are also lost! How are you going to explain yourself?”

Feng Yijin directly vented his anger on Feng Wei’an.

Feng Wei’an frowned. He quickly walked to the center of the hall, kneeled down, and apologized. “Imperial Father, I was incompetent, and I’m guilty. I hope Imperial Father will punish me.”

At the same time, Feng Weizhou stood at the side and watched everyone coldly.

He could naturally see through the matter between his First Brother and his Third Brother. He was not curious about how his father would deal with them. Instead, he was more curious about whether his Ninth Imperial Uncle and Yu Yunxi really died.

Meanwhile, Feng Weichen, who was standing next to Feng Weizhou, clenched his hands under his sleeves, feeling uneasy. All along, he had relied on his Ninth Imperial Uncle’s support to fight against his First Imperial Brother and the Crown Prince. If something happened to his Ninth Imperial Uncle, it would be tantamount to cutting off his path to the throne.

Feng Yijin continued to berate angrily, “You’ll definitely be punished, but tell me how you’re going to rectify this matter. If Marquis Jian Zhong’s matter were to spread, how would the commoners feel at ease? How could I stabilize the people’s hearts?”

Feng Wei’an glanced at Feng Weirui from the corners of his eyes and discovered that the latter did not even bother to hide the gloating and proud expression on his face. He clenched his hands into fists. Although he was angry, he could only endure it.

In order to appease his father, Feng Wei’an could only grit his teeth and continued to lower his head. He said, “In order to make up for my mistake, I’m willing to hand over the tea…”

Upon hearing these words, Feng Weirui’s eyes flashed with joy for a brief moment.

However, before Feng Wei’an could finish speaking, a cold voice rang from the entrance.

“This matter is not Prince An’s fault. Why is Prince An apologizing?”

‘This voice…’

Feng Weirui and Jian Sit s expressions changed at the same time when they heard this voice. A hint of panic could be seen in their eyes at this moment.

Meanwhile, Luo Xiuran almost cried when he saw that Feng Yili had returned. He was so exhausted from arguing with this group of people.

Feng Yijin, who was sitting on the dragon throne, narrowed his eyes as he looked at the two people who walked into the hall.

Feng Yili and Yu Yunxi were still dressed in yesterday’s clothes. Their clothes were a little tattered and stained with blood. Their hair was also a little messy.

Nonetheless, Feng Yili did not look like he was in a sorry state. His aura was still as imposing as ever. “Greetings, Imperial Brother.” “Yunxi greets Your Majesty.”

Feng Yili and Yu Yunxi bowed.

Feng Weirui, who was standing nearby, looked at the two people who were still alive, and he felt his legs grow soft. His earlier calmness had vanished completely at this moment.

Feng Yijin said in an ambiguous tone, “I heard that you fell off a cliff, Ninth Imperial Brother. I even sent the imperial guards to look for you. I didn’t expect you to return safely.”

Needless to say, Feng Yijin also hoped that Feng Yili died. Unexpectedly, Feng Yili’s life was so tough.

Feng Yili looked up and said hoarsely, “Imperial Brother, I was indeed in great danger. However, I persevered thinking about how I have to return to expose some people’s evil deeds! I hope Imperial Brother won’t blame my appearance for being inappropriate.”

“I’m already very happy that you returned safely. Why would I care whether your appearance is appropriate or not?” Feng Yijin said with a fake smile. The hypocritical words came out of his mouth easily.

At this time, Feng Weizhou asked casually, “Ninth Imperial Uncle, what evil deeds do you want to expose? Who is the culprit?”

Feng Weizhou and the other princes naturally knew the truth of the matter long ago. Feng Weizhou only pretended to be confused, wanting to use Feng Yili to deal Feng Weirui a fatal blow. Feng Wei’an’s mother did not come from a powerful family so Feng Wei’an could not cause any trouble. However, Feng Weirui was different. If Feng Weirui was eliminated, things would be much easier for him.

Feng Yili glanced at Feng Weizhou coldly. He naturally knew what Feng Weizhou was thinking. However, he was indeed going to deal with Feng Weirui now so he did not care about Feng Weizhou for now.

Feng Weirui Danicked when he saw Feng Yili’s gaze sweeDing Dast him. He quickly stepped forward and said, “Imperial Father, don’t believe Ninth

Imperial Uncle’s words! He’s also colluding with Yu Yunxi to frame me!”

Jian Si quickly followed in Feng Weirui’s footsteps and complained first. She kowtowed as she said, “That’s right, Your Majesty! The Prince Regent is determined to help Young Marquis Luo and Yu Yunxi. I’m afraid he’s going to frame Prince Rui!”

Feng Yili and Yu Yunxi only watched as the duo took the initiative to complain.

After a long time, Feng Yili said, “Have Prince Rui and Miss Jian finish acting? If so, I’m going to speak.”

Feng Yili brought two books before he said, “This first book is from the Ministry of War. It shows that Prince Rui had transferred people away from the ministry several times. The second book records the people leaving the city. The soldiers guarding the entrance usually record the names of those who enter and leave the city by carriages. Coincidentally, it recorded the names of Prince Rui’s people. The carriages would often leave at night filled with people but return empty.”

Feng Weirui wanted to explain, but Feng Yili did not give him a chance.

“I found many weapons from the imperial court in the bandit’s nest, and they matched the weapons that the Ministry of War lost. Among the bandits who died yesterday, many of them were soldiers dressed as bandits. Those people’s names match those recorded in the book.”

“Lin De, why aren’t you bringing me the books?” Feng Yijin said angrily, slamming his hand on the desk.

Lin De quickly ran down and took the books before carefully handing them to Feng Yijin.

Soft rustling noises rang in the hall as Feng Yijin flipped through one of the books.

Feng Weirui was frozen at this moment. He knew the books were ironclad evidence..
