2592 I’m Not Suing Anymore!
“He sent people to a.s.sa.s.sinate the crown prince while in the Shuntian Prefecture. He has traitorously committed a crime of gross irreverence against the crown prince and the crown prince consort. Each and every crime here deserves death!” The young crown prince consort shouted angrily, “I request for the immediate execution of the Va.s.sal Prince of Jianping as a warning to others!”
“Imperial Father! This son also requests for the immediate execution of the Va.s.sal Prince of Jianping!” Mo Lian also chimed in. “All the evidence points to the Va.s.sal Prince of Jianping. He cannot deny it!”
The Va.s.sal King of Jianping: !
The emperor: …
Why was hearing this couple echo each other so aggravating?
!!
“Va.s.sal King of Jianping, what do you say?” The emperor pressed the area between his brows with a headache.
This incident had taken a baffling turn in the middle, creating this new development.
It had clearly been the Va.s.sal King of Jianping remonstrating against the crown prince consort at the beginning, yet the result had turned into the crown prince consort showing convincing proof of the Va.s.sal Prince of Jianping’s irreverence…
This statement of confession was clearly written. The Va.s.sal Prince of Jianping had also confessed to the crime of a.s.sa.s.sinating the crown prince.
The emperor directly threw the statement of confession at the Va.s.sal King of Jianping’s face. “Jianping, Mo Kun’s actions have truly disappointed Us. What else do you have to say?”
The Va.s.sal King of Jianping was confounded. His reflexes finally came around, he hastily dropped to his knees. He wailed while weeping, “Your Majesty, Your Majesty! My Kun’er would absolutely never do such an irreverent thing.”
“This must be, must be! He got coerced! He got coerced to write such a statement of confession! It must be like that!”
The Va.s.sal King of Jianping screeched, “Imperial Brother, you must exercise judgment for Kun’er! Imperial Brother, this younger brother is willing to vouch for Kun’er with my life. This child would not do that! He, he does not have the guts to do that!”
Mo Lian sn.i.g.g.e.red. “Imperial Uncle is being funny. There is already the statement of confession here. If Imperial Uncle wants witnesses, his crown prince did keep one or two people from the a.s.sa.s.sination attempt as witnesses. Should I call them over and let Imperial Uncle ask them questions?”
The old Va.s.sal King of Jianping’s fat face was instantly filled with wrath. He scrunched his mouth and wanted to refute, but the emperor stopped him with a glare.
“Jianping, Mo Kun’s statement of confession does indeed exist. You do not need to argue anymore.”
“No!” The old Va.s.sal King of Jianping dared not admit to this crime. Was a.s.sa.s.sinating the current crown prince a joke? That was a crime of treason punishable by death!”
Mo Kun would be finished if he admitted to this crime!
“Your Majesty, please listen to this younger brother say something.” The old Va.s.sal King of Jianping hastily protested, “This must be a joke. Right, Kun’er must have written it for fun! This absolutely is not true.”
“Crown Prince Consort.” The old Va.s.sal King of Jianping hastily turned around to look for Qiao Mu. He asked while his head was covered with sweat, “Right? Mo Kun that darn br*t randomly wrote it, right?”
Qiao Mu looked at him coldly. “How do I know whether he wrote it randomly? Weren’t you remonstrating against me? Weren’t you complaining to the emperor? You are the Va.s.sal King of Jianping. Do you lack even this bit of judgment?”
All the imperial censors felt unable to respond.
The crown prince consort’s tone of voice in saying this was truly incredible!
This was just like two kids had just fought. One complained to the other kid’s parent, but he got beaten up by that parent instead. Thus, the subject of the complaint swaggered in front of him…
The Va.s.sal King of Jianping’s head was drenched in cold sweat. He hastily took away the remonstration memorial he handed to the emperor. He forcefully ripped it into pieces and stuffed the bits into his mouth. “I-I’m not suing anymore! Not suing anymore!!”
