Sān Bǎo's words plunged the previously boisterous and lively scene into a brief silence, before erupting into countless incredulous gasps.
Everyone's eyes widened, and while there was fear mixed in, excitement prevailed.
Anyone, from any era, has the fire of gossip within them.
The higher up the social circle, the more they crave to know the truth about that circle.
And the royal family, absolutely take the lead in this.
Otherwise, why are historical anecdotes and secrets from imperial dynasties, no matter how exaggerated or outlandish, so popular
A group of commoners chatted idly, their words revolving around secret stories about a certain emperor from a specific dynasty. This kind of gossip was undoubtedly more exciting than hearing about Wang Yuanwai from the neighboring village falling down today. After all, it pleased them and satisfied others.
And throughout any dynasty, the struggle between princes is an eternal topic.
But on the surface, there were almost no incidents of princes killing each other that came to light.
Even royalty has a reputation to maintain.
Even though the emperor himself ascended to the throne after a struggle against his siblings, he would absolutely not want to see his son follow the same path. That goes for every emperor.
Because his own son is capable of killing his brother, he could potentially kill his own father.
And no one would accept a murderer who killed his own brothers and sisters as emperor.
So when the Three Treasures spoke these words, all the people were astonished.
And Li Yinhǔ, on the other hand, widened his eyes, his chest heaving rapidly, clearly extremely agitated at this moment.
Instinctively, the image of him personally killing the Ninth Prince that day flashed through his mind. It felt as if the Ninth Prince's eyes, filled with despair and disbelief at the moment of his death, were watching him from some corner right now.
Frightened, angered, and terrified, Li Yinhu roared: "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"You're farting!"
"Poppycock!"
"Sanbao, are you looking for death!"
Faced with Li Yinhu's passionate and nearly hysterical rebuttal, Sanbao said calmly, "The prince will certainly not admit it, but the matter is as clear as day, and there is no room for the prince to refute it."
As he spoke, Sabao's eyes never left the scene unfolding before him.
As soon as he saw a group of people begin to move, he immediately gestured.
Then, the Jinyiwei who had been laying in wait arrived at those people's sides, staring them down and preventing them from making any moves.
These people were all sent by Zhao Xuanji, just in case.
But what if it still happens anyway
...and in a way that even Zhao Xuanji couldn't have anticipated, he struck at Li Yinhu's fatal point.
Obviously not intending to give Li Yinhu any space to think, Sabao waved his hand, and He Shouyi was brought up.
"Does the prince know him"
In full view of the thousands of people gathered, the Three Treasures were about to publicly put Li Yinhu on trial.
The reason this could happen is because Li Chen wanted Li Yinhu to not only fail but also suffer a complete loss of reputation. Not only would he gain no fame, but he'd be utterly disgraced. And for that, the truth had to be exposed right in front of everyone.
However, that's not feasible because Li Yinhou's identity means only Li Chen can interrogate him personally. But Li Chen cannot appear here; otherwise, it would be obvious this is a conspiracy.
Some things need to be veiled by a layer of window paper. Even if everyone understands what's going on, as long as that layer of window paper remains, the matter appears respectable and above board.
When Li Ynhu saw He Shouyi, his whole body instantly felt a chill from head to toe.
