The Emperor looked down at everyone from the tall city tower. At first glance, he instinctively looked in the direction of the drum. With one look, he saw Gu Yanfei standing beside it.
Chu Yi was standing beside the Emperor, his frosty white cloak billowing in the wind and flapping loudly.
He was also looking at Gu Yanfei.
Gu Yanfei didn’t expect Chu Yi to come back at this time. She looked up and smiled at him. In an instant, she was as beautiful as a flower bud on a branch, smiling and spitting out its stamen.
The Emperor slowly looked at everyone below and said, “All of you may rise.” His voice carried an inconspicuous trace of fatigue in the cold winter wind.
Eunuch Zhao Rang repeated the emperor’s words at the top of his lungs. His sharp voice resounded throughout the silent square.
The commoners were a little surprised that the Emperor was so approachable and stood up one after another.
…..
The Emperor’s second sentence was: ‘Who beat the drum?’
Zhao Rang repeated this sentence.
Scholar Zhang straightened his robes and walked stiffly towards the center, arriving in front of Chengtian Gate.
The girl timidly pinched a corner of her father’s robe and followed him like a shadow.
Scholar Zhang barely maintained his composure. He bowed to the Emperor on the city wall and replied loudly, “Your Majesty, it’s me.”
The square in front of Chengtian Gate was empty. There were two rows of bronze-armored imperial guards on both sides. The imperial guards didn’t clear the area and only blocked the other commoners on both sides.
The onlookers stood far away and couldn’t see the Emperor’s face clearly. They only felt that the Emperor had a thin appearance and a noble bearing. When he didn’t smile, he had the natural might of an Emperor.
The commoners couldn’t help but feel uneasy and wait and see.
The Emperor on the city gate tower asked right on the heels of that, “Who was the one who stopped us from knocking on the drum?’
The group of government officials, led by the head of the class, trembled. None of them dared to agree. However, if they didn’t say anything, President Li would say on their behalf, “Your Majesty, it’s the government officials of the imperial capital.”
President Li’s heart sank slightly. He knew that he wouldn’t be able to escape the crime of inaction if he watched a bailiff attack ordinary people today. He hated the magistrate in his heart.
The cold wind blew, messing up the beard on the Emperor’s chin.
The Emperor stroked his beard and said coldly, ‘Xuanjing Zhao Magistrate.”
When the bailiffs heard this, their legs went weak, and they instantly knelt down again. They lowered their heads to the ground in fear and didn’t dare to move.
The Emperor then asked Scholar Zhang, “Who is the one who voiced the injustice? Why did you beat the drum?”
Up until now, Scholar Zhang’s heart was still in a mess. Panic and nervousness were all present.
Now that the arrow was on the bowstring, he had no choice but to shoot.
He gritted his teeth and no longer cared about being afraid. He continued, “This commoner, Zhang Min, is suing the eldest princess for ordering people to kidnap innocent children to obtain their heart blood to refine pills and treat her illness…”
The more Zhang Min spoke, the more indignant and agitated he became. His eyes were red, and his chest heaved violently.
Zhang Min only reported on the eldest princess and didn’t mention the Emperor at all. In fact, he and the others present suspected that the Emperor probably knew about it and even indulged his beloved daughter, but he didn’t dare talk nonsense about the Emperor.
” ” The Emperor in the gate tower closed his eyes. His heart was surging with abnormally complicated and strong emotions.
Even though the emperor had already heard Gu Yuan’s report, now that he was there and heard the person in question say it again, he felt his heart turn cold.
If there was really a way to save his daughter, the Emperor could pay any price, but it was definitely not to exchange someone else’s life for his daughter’s.
And now, his daughter’s life was in danger. She only had two days to live, but some people were stirring up trouble outside in her name.
Just thinking about it made the Emperor’s heart ache. He was so angry that his hands and feet turned cold, and his thin body trembled slightly.
Chu Yi walked down unhurriedly from the city tower. As he walked, he asked
Zhang Min,
‘What proof do you have? ‘
Chu Yi’s clear and bright voice was like a gentle spring breeze in March, blowing across the entire square.
Although Zhang Min didn ‘t know who this young man in white was, seeing that he could speak on behalf of the Emperor, it was obvious that he was a noble.
He calmed himself down and replied obediently, “My daughter is the witness. My daughter was lucky enough to escape from the palace. She said that in order to save the eldest princess, she wanted to take their heart blood and let Shangqing Spiritual Master refine the Heart Pill… ”
The surroundings fell silent again.
“Shangqing?” Chu Yi repeated softly, his calm tone devoid of any emotion.
However, in Zhang Min’s ears, it sounded like the other party was questioning this matter.
“It’s really Shangqing Spiritual Master,” Zhang Min hurriedly said. “My daughter will definitely not lie.. ‘
