Prince Li Zheng then addressed the crowd once more, his voice stern: "As everyone knows, I am not someone who enjoys nitpicking."
"To know one's mistakes and correct them is a great virtue! If you know you have made a mistake and refuse to admit it, how is that any different from being a thief?"
"I hope that the person responsible will voluntarily stand up and confess their mistake to the Emperor in front of everyone!"
The assembly fell silent, everyone looked at each other, clueless about who had damaged the White Jade Guanyin.
Seeing this, Prince Li Zheng continued, "At the site of the damage to the White Jade Guanyin, a house servant found an earring."
"I believe a simple comparison will reveal who caused the damage."
"I give this person one last chance to save face, please stand up and admit your mistake."
The guests checked each other to see whose earring was missing.
Bai Zhi'er heard Song Qingrui gasp beside her.
