At this point, most of the civil and military officials showed astonished expressions, and then the eyes they looked at Baili Wushang were a bit strange.
"Shang'er, what do you have to say now?" Luo Huang looked at Baili Wushang with a cold expression.
"Returning to my father, I cannot admit anything that Duke Wei said." Baili Wushang replied calmly.
"Okay, very good!" Luo Huang showed a sneer on his face, and then said, "Where is the Minister of Punishment?"
"I'm here." Cao Yan, the Minister of Punishment, responded with an uneasy look on his face.
"The merits and demerits of this matter will be left to your trial. Moreover, I and everyone here will go to your Criminal Department Yamen to observe." Luo Huang said coldly.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Although Cao Yan was so nervous that sweat broke out on his forehead, he replied calmly.
"You'er, take the suspects who were given to you by the Weiguo Bus, as well as the suspects you caught yesterday who participated in my house arrest, and bring them to the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment. Li Qing sent someone to Princess Xuankang and asked her to go to the Yamen of the Ministry of Punishment to await interrogation.
"Immediately afterwards, Emperor Luo gave another order.
Baili Wuyou and Li Qing obeyed the order and left.
An hour later, all the monarchs and ministers of the Jinluan Hall moved to the lobby of the Yamen of the Ministry of Justice.
To the left of Cao Yan's official chair, there was a huge mahogany elevated chair with golden soft cushions on it. It was obvious that this was a place specially designed for Emperor Luo who was watching.
On both sides of the lobby, there are large mahogany chairs that extend into the courtyard outside the lobby. Naturally, these are chairs prepared for officials.
After Emperor Luo sat down, Cao Yan asked all the officials to take their seats. He bowed to Emperor Luo before taking his seat.
There are two chairs below that are temporarily empty, one on the left and right of Baili Wushang, reserved for Baili Wuyou and Yun Jingchu.
Cao Yan had never felt that this chair was so difficult to sit on as he did today.
Soon, I heard the announcement from the government servant outside the door: "His Royal Highness Prince Yue has arrived!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Baili Wuyou strode in, then bowed to Emperor Luo and said, "Father, my son has brought the witnesses. He is waiting outside the door."
"Yes." Luo Huang nodded lightly, "You can take a seat."
After Baili Wuyou thanked him, he sat down on Baili Wushang.
Not long after, I heard the government servant outside shout again: "Princess Kang has arrived——"
This time, everyone's eyes couldn't help but become a little complicated, and they all looked at the door in unison.
Yun Jingchu, wearing a court dress that symbolized the status of a princess, walked in slowly. Her stunning face looked even more noble and inviolable against the backdrop of the court dress. In an instant, the entire lobby became brighter with her arrival.
Yun Jingchu saluted Emperor Luo unhurriedly amidst the surprised and strange looks of everyone: "My son, I see you, Emperor Father."
"No courtesy, go and take a seat over there." Luo Huang pointed to the chair and said coldly.
"Thank you, Father." Yun Jingchu straightened up and walked towards the only empty chair next to Baili Wushang. Over there, Baili Wushang had already stood up and stretched out his hand to her, as if he trusted her and supported her.
appearance.
All the civil and military officials present couldn't help but sigh, beauty is such a disaster. It must be Princess Kang who was eager to let King Kang ascend the throne, so she asked people to forge the oracle and encouraged King Kang to put the emperor under house arrest. Otherwise, King Kang was not keen on power before.
, he will not suddenly become a person who will do anything for the throne.
"Let's get started." Luo Huang said calmly.
"Shengtang——" Cao Yan slapped the wooden door and said in a deep voice.
