"Empress Dowager!"
"According to news from outside, during the recent battle in Guangnan, Crown Prince Yan was discovered to have been secretly communicating with the Southern Ocean Kingdom. The Emperor found irrefutable evidence and caught him red-handed!"
"Now, Min Tu, the second prince of the Southern Ocean, and our Crown Prince Yan are both locked up in the Imperial Prison!"
"The case has been handed over to the Three Judicial Offices. Once convicted, they will be executed!"
Sister Qing was inwardly panicking, but her words were clear.
The Empress Dowager, however, was a different story.
After hearing the news, she was completely dumbfounded.
Trembling all over, her face pale, she was utterly irrational.
"Junqi committing treason and colluding with the enemy? Impossible! Junqi would never do such a thing!"
"It must be the Emperor! Yes, it must be his sinister schemes!"
"Emperor, oh Emperor, can't you bear to see him well?!"
