n Xuetang thought... She had endured until this point, that was enough.When she saw the look that woman was giving her son, Jing, with such disgust, she just wanted to do this.But she, An Xue Tang, en...In An Xuetang's letter, besides the first two sentences which were not very serious, the rest were all about things in Beijang and things about Mo Junyi.
After reading the letter, Mo Yunjing's eyes deepened. He was both surprised and unsurprised by everything she had done. After all, An Xuetang always liked to give him surprises.
Everything she did touched him, both moved and pained him. If he were here, he would never let her be so busy.
At this time, the people in the capital began to buzz with talk. News of the Northern Border's conquest of the Great Yue Kingdom had somehow reached their ears.
The people of the capital began to discuss Crown Prince Mo Junyi over their tea and meals after dinner that day.
Because the message they received was that Crown Prince Mo Junyi, the eldest son of the emperor, was exceptionally talented, especially since he had managed to destroy the Great Yue Kingdom overnight with only 50,000 Northern Border troops.
This is unprecedented, and what people are saying about it now is truly eerie.
Especially those who told stories, they described Mo Junyi's bravery as unmatched, especially his appearance on the battlefield killing enemies, as if they had witnessed it with their own eyes.
Within an hour, almost every citizen in the city knew that the prince of Tianba Kingdom had produced a warrior prodigy. He was as solid as jade and lush as green pine, his appearance uniquely captivating, with no equal to be found in the world.
At the tender age of ten, he was able to take the battlefield and slay enemies. With only 50,000 soldiers, he could annihilate a nation. He was even more formidable than Mo Yunjing, who had achieved victory in battle at the age of fourteen.
"Let me tell you, my wife used to be a servant in the Prince's mansion. According to her, when this young Master was born, there were celestial omens, but the Prince ordered them to keep it secret and deliberately pushed back the day of his birth by one day."
"Is that true"
"If this is true, then this young master isn't an ordinary person."
"Shhh, be quiet."
One person, fearing that discussing this topic would lead to beheading, looked around nervously. He then lowered his voice and said, "Let's not spread rumors like this. Our emperor can't stand to hear such things."
"If you don't want to hear, then don't. I just have to say, I think something was off about the prince's case back then. Our prince wouldn't be someone who would betray the country! There must have been someone framing the prince that year."
Hush! You're still called the prince, be careful you don't get your head chopped off.
“I'm not afraid. Back then, when both my parents died, it was the prince who gave me a mouthful of food to eat, and it was his Prince's Mansion that taught me how to survive.”
"Alas, my leg has been lame since birth. Staying at the Prince's Mansion would only invite gossip. When I reached adulthood and was capable of surviving on my own, the Prince gave me a large sum of silver as compensation for my years there."
But I know in my heart, I couldn't help the Prince’s Mansion much those years, and they raised me. Where did I get the wages
"It's all because the Crown Prince is kindhearted and worried that I wouldn't be able to manage on my own, so he had these prepared for me. The Crown Prince is such a kind person; he would never betray his country."
Besides, the Crown Prince is already the Crown Prince of Tianba Kingdom. The Dragon Throne will eventually be his. Why would he do something like this Anyone with common sense can tell that there's something fishy going on here.
Those surrounding him started nodding in agreement after hearing his words.
"Indeed, back then the crown prince was a brilliant and capable person in Tianba Kingdom. He had the people's support, there was no reason for him to betray his country."
"That's right, that's right. I always felt there was something fishy about the Crown Prince's situation. Look at the current heir of the Crown Prince's mansion. He has inherited the Crown Prince's talent and the skills of the war god of the Northern Border. Now he is even leading Tianba Kingdom to victory! Neither he nor his father have done anything wrong to Tianba Kingdom."
"Yes, and now that young prince is so capable. If the matter of the Crown Prince isn't resolved, I'm afraid the prince will be disappointed in the emperor."
"The Crown Prince and the King of Beijang are the hope of our Tianba Nation to unite the world. We can't disappoint them, so why don't we jointly write a petition to the Emperor to clear the Crown Prince's name"
"But what if the Emperor gets angry This could be a capital offense."
At this moment, the lame man from before suddenly spoke up, "We should all petition the emperor. I don't believe he would really behead every single person in the capital."
"That's right, if he really dared to do that, it would be a shame for the whole world."
"Alright, since everyone's on board, let's get things organized."
Seeing the common people reach an agreement and rush to find intellectuals to write for them, Eleventh, who had been lurking in the shadows all along, smirked and then left.
What happened just now was all instigated by the Northern Border Princess. He doesn't know if it worked or not, but he completely believes her nonetheless.
Now An Xuetang is the omnipotent goddess in their hearts.
Whatever she said, they were willing to believe it and thought it would surely come true.
Soon, the emperor received word of the petitions from the people. Of course, these letters did not go directly to the emperor's hands, as officials read them first.
After reading the report, the officials discussed it for a while before deciding to inform the emperor.
Upon hearing the officials' description, the emperor was so enraged that he wanted to order their execution, killing all those who had petitioned. However, this time almost every citizen in the capital had submitted petitions, and he could not directly harm them.
He can't kill that many people even if he wanted to!
And he couldn't deny the fact that they won against Bei Jiang, but letting go of Mo Yunchen was absolutely impossible!
After a long silence, the emperor had figured it out. He couldn't let Mo Yunchen go, but he still needed to appease the people. After all, the Great Yue King involved in this matter was already dead.
No matter what evidence he presented, it could be justified in the name of the emperor of Dàyuè.
The emperor, having figured things out, immediately ordered a thorough re-investigation of the past events. Once the truth came to light, if Mo Yunchen was innocent, he would naturally let him go!
His command also soothed the people.
After calming down, he went to the cold palace to find Mo Yunjing.
Now, Mo Yunjing doesn't bow to the emperor even when he's alone. The emperor has long since gotten used to this, so he didn't say anything about it now.
He glared coldly at Mo Yunjing, “Were you the one who spread the rumors in the city”
Mò Yúnjǐng looked at him expressionlessly, his gaze cold and aloof. He then lowered his head without answering his question, instead asking, "When can I go out"
"!"
The emperor's eyes instantly turned bloodshot with rage, "You...how dare you, Mo Yun Jing! Who gave you the audacity to speak to me like this"
Mo Yunjing's expression was calm. "Who told you to imprison me here"
"..." Let me know if you have more text you'd like me to translate!
The emperor was stared at, his eyes flustered for a moment. He always felt that Mo Yunjing's eyes could see through his heart.
Mo Yunjing narrowed his eyes and suddenly stepped closer, his voice low. "As the Emperor of Tianba, you colluded with the enemy, intending to frame your own son and plunge the people of Beijang into war. Life and death are in your hands, so tell me, who gave you this idea"o told her that his mother's appearance was exactly the same as in the painting.So, the woman lying in bed at this time is not Mo Yunjing's motherBecause of her appearance, she doesn't look anything l...
