Chapter 82.2: So It’s the Imperial Uncle
“Imperial Uncle, could there be some kind of misunderstanding here? Why would the Second Prince possibly want to assassinate your future bride!”
“The evidence gathered is irrefutable. Is Your Majesty trying to shield the Second Prince here?”
Long Moshen shot Ximen Sheng a scathing glance, his voice deep and low, his eyes seemingly carrying a look of warning.
The expression on Ximen Sheng’s face congealed, and his colour looked a little unnatural. This Imperial Uncle of his that did not share the same surname always seemed to think nothing of him, even here in the middle of morning court, not giving him the slightest bit of face before all the court officials.
The eunuch picked up the papers Long Moshen threw on the floor and stacked them together before presenting it to the Emperor.
Ximen Sheng took them to have a look, and the shade of his face turned an even uglier shade.
That fool!
How could he leave such a clear trace of evidence dealing with such a grave and severe matter! ?
He’s really going to be driven to his death by that incompetent fool! As a prince of the Imperial Family, he had actually left such damning evidence to be used against him while he was out buying people to silence a target!
Just look at this here! Bank notes with the Second Prince’s seal that were used, signed confessions from the assassins, signed statements from the Second Prince’s palace guards and a statement from the Scarlet Cloud Hall’s Manager!
Paying assassins to commit murder, and the evidence is irrefutable!
When the Second Prince saw the colour on his Imperial Brother’s face, the Second Prince’s heart sank down into the lowest pits. Right in the beginning, he had not left behind any evidence of his involvement at all. It was only after the second half of the night that he personally went to the Scarlet Cloud Hall to ask Manager Li for assassins he could employ.
He had thought that once Mu Wushuang and her young brother were dead, everything would be fine. And as the second elder brother of the Emperor, there would be endless ways of absolving him of any crime. He had never thought that the siblings would still live, and that Long Moshen would be able to dig up all the evidence that was being revealed before all the court officials present in court!
The thing that made him even more frantic was the fact that Long Moshen was able to produce all the evidence meant that he must be the person helping Mu Wushuang and her younger brother last night!
Long Moshen really meant it when he said that he was taking Mu Wushuang as his future bride!
The Second Prince’s heart was thumping away like mad. He had come to step on the toes of that great Demon Lord!
He really regrets it. From the moment Long Moshen threw all the evidence onto his face, he had felt nothing but pure and utter regret!
The look in the Emperor, Ximen Sheng’s eyes was highly conflicted. His mind had been churning for a countermeasure from the moment his hands held the damning evidence, but no matter how hard he wracked his mind, he was unable to think of a way to save his second elder brother from this.
He could not possibly pit himself against Long Moshen right at this moment as Long Moshen was still holding two Tiger Talismans in his hands and had command over six hundred thousand troops under him. Before those Tiger Talismans were turned over to him, there was no way he would dare to get into any conflict with Long Moshen.
Maybe deep inside his bones, he was still fearful of Long Moshen. Hence no matter how much he wanted that man dead, without absolute confidence and certainty, he would not dare to make any rash moves.
