The things written on this were actually identical to the memorial Xue Beng had brought this morning to accuse the Crown Prince.
He hurriedly asked, "Where did you get this from?"
The memorial Xue Beng brought had long since been burned in front of him.
Where did this copy come from?
Could it be that Xue Beng had specifically kept a copy?
Or was it that the Crown Prince had written it down from memory?
That's impossible.
Though the two had their conflicts, they were brothers at the end of the day.
If an outsider like the Xing Family found out about this, it would be of no benefit to the Imperial Family.
Golden Crown saw the Old Emperor beginning to think.
So he said, "This thing was naturally obtained from the residence of your good brother, Prince Xue Xing."
"Xue Xing?"
"Impossible! You're lying!"
Xue Ye simply didn't believe it.
Where would Xue Xing have gotten such a thing?
Moreover, the relationship between the two brothers was very good.
He had shown nothing but favor and affection to this only brother of his.
How could the other party betray him?
But remembering how Xue Xing had arrived so coincidentally this morning when he was about to punish Xue Beng...
That was a bit too much of a coincidence.
Furthermore, Xue Beng had been raised by Xue Xing since childhood.
The two had a deep relationship.
It was possible that Xue Beng had given a copy of this thing to Xue Xing.
At this thought, Xue Ye began to suspect Xue Xing.
"I don't have the spare time to lie." Golden Crown saw through Xue Ye's suspicion and explained the source of the evidence: "This thing was given to Xue Xing by Xue Beng."
"What? Don't tell me you don't even recognize your own son's handwriting?"
Xue Ye looked closely.
It really was Xue Beng's handwriting.
Instantly, anger surged in his heart.
He cursed inwardly.
This bastard actually kept such dangerous evidence.
If he had known...
He shouldn't have been soft-hearted this morning.
Instead, he should have given this worthless younger son a good lesson.
And Xue Xing.
With such important evidence, couldn't you have hidden it properly?
To let it fall into someone else's hands so easily.
Golden Crown smiled kindly. "Well, I won't waste any more time. How does Your Majesty think this matter should be handled?"
"Oh, right, I forgot to tell you."
"My grandfather came today too."
As soon as he finished speaking...
Jin E's figure flashed into the room.
"It's been a long time, War God Crown Prince." Xue Ye hurriedly greeted him.
But in his heart, snowflakes began to drift.
Good heavens.
Why did this great deity come?
It's over!
If he didn't provide a reasonable handling method today...
His life would probably be forfeit.
Jin E followed the pre-written script.
He said directly, "I wonder for what reason Your Majesty hijacked my Xing Family's Munitions? Hijacking them is one thing, but why kill people to silence them?"
"The Emperor should give an explanation."
"Otherwise, don't blame my Xing Family for turning our backs and not recognizing friends!"
Thump!
Under the invisible pressure emanating from Jin E...
Xue Ye was so scared that he knelt on the ground.
If the great noble families and high-ranking court officials were to see this scene...
Their worldview would probably collapse.
After all, in their hearts, imperial power was supreme.
How could it be so easily scared into kneeling?
To this...
Golden Crown only wanted to say one thing.
Before absolute strength, even authoritative imperial power...
Was just a fart.
It was of no use at all.
Xue Ye repeatedly admitted his mistake. "It was all because I momentarily trusted slanderous words. I have already killed the official who made the suggestion."
"In addition, I am very sorry about this matter."
"How about this, as long as it can appease the Xing Family's anger..."
"The Tiandou Empire is willing to compensate you at ten times the usual price of the Munitions."
"And the Munitions will be returned in full."
"As for the deceased transport personnel, the future living expenses of their family members will also be entirely borne by the Empire."
"How does that sound?"
"..."
