Chapter 826: Dead men tell no tales0

Chu Yan returned to the palace first and reported the matter back. There was nothing to conceal, and even the drawn paper was presented.

“Father, there is a disagreement between this son and the fourth brother known to everyone. This son doesn’t know what the other people have said, but this son has never done anything wrong with the fourth brother, let alone framed him with something for no reason. What I said today is true, and none of the confession is false. It’s a pity that the prisoners have been poisoned and the poisoner has committed suicide.”

The emperor was so angry that such a major incident happened only a few hundred miles away from the capital. The Prince of Jin Country was injured and had disappeared, the princess was poisoned and unconscious, and all the envoys were killed. If this matter reached the ear of the Jin Country, there will be a bloody storm immediately.

He looked at the confession in his hand, which clearly stated that he was instructed by Prince Xiao.

He knows Chu Yan very well, Chu Yan wouldn’t do this kind of framing, but he couldn’t believe that Chu Feng could do such a rebellious thing. If he really did it, he could make a hole in the sky!

How will he explain to the Emperor of Jin Country now?

To show their sincerity in discussing peace agreement, the Jin Country sent their prince, princess, and eighteen envoys. But in the end, something like this happened. How would he explain it now?

“So, now no one can testify?” He still has a calm face but felt quite relieved from the bottom of his heart. After all, Chu Feng was his son. If there was hard evidence, he can’t perform favoritism in this matter. After all, it was a matter of both countries.

But if there was no evidence, Chu Feng can avoid a death sentence.

Chu Yan said: “It’s not that there is no evidence. The body has been sent to the Ministry of Punishment, this son has asked them to file a case. Now, they should be doing the autopsy. Maybe they can find any clue.”

The emperor hastily said: “This is not an urgent matter. You better look for the Prince and cure the princess first. As long as the prince and the princess are alive, everything is easy to solve. If something bad happens to any of them, this matter won’t pass easily.”

Chu Yan frowned and stared at the emperor with scorching eyes. As expected by his master, the emperor really intended to perform favoritism.

No wonder that he has been missing for 3 years. It was impossible for his father to not know the reason for his disappearance, but Chu Feng was still safe and sound. Not only that, he even took over his military power.

Seeing the disappointment and mockery in Chu Yan’s eyes, the emperor opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but he didn’t know where to start. He admitted that among all his sons, his favorite was Chu Yan, but it doesn’t mean that he doesn’t value his other sons. They were all his sons. They were all his flesh and blood. If he needs to choose one of them to be the crown prince, he will naturally choose Chu Yan, but he will also treat his other sons well.

Chu Yan didn’t say any more, he cupped his hands and said: “This son will now retire.”

Seeing Chu Yang’s departure back, the emperor almost crumpled the paper on his hand. He wanted to stop him but was afraid that after stopping him, he couldn’t face his disappointed eyes.

After Chu Yan left the palace, he directly sent someone to the Ministry of Punishment to evacuate all his men and left the matter to the Ministry of Punishment.

It can be estimated that the Ministry of Punishment will suddenly encounter problems tonight, and those corpses will be burned beyond recognition. Just like the old ways, only god and the ghosts know this matter.

“His Royal Highness, we will just forget about this matter?” Zhou Gang looked upset.

Chu Yan shrugged his shoulder: “If not, then what? Imperial Father doesn’t want us to further check this matter. So even if we found hard evidence he will find another way to save him. So why bother?”
