The Eldest Prince and Second Princess echoed each other. On the surface, they seemed to be speaking up for Ling Yan, but they were hinting to the Eternal Emperor to listen to Lord Hu.
The Eternal Emperor's face darkened. He finally spoke in front of all the civil and military officials of the court.
"If you dare to slander the Crown Prince today, I will make you suffer the pain of being torn apart by five horses."
The Eternal Emperor's gaze was sharp, and his tone was clearly very protective of Ling Yan.
"Yes, Your Majesty …" Lord Hu responded and then said, "I want to impeach the Crown Prince for two major crimes. First, the Crown Prince allowed his subordinates to commit crimes in the imperial city, harm the citizens, and harm the loyal."
As he spoke, Lord Hu presented the memorial that he had prepared long ago to the Eternal Emperor.
The Eternal Emperor scanned it, and his expression suddenly darkened.
"The Crown Prince's henchmen, Mo You, Wu Liang, Chang Kai … and the others abused their power to bully the people in the imperial city and killed our citizens …" Lord Hu listed the crimes in the memorial in detail in front of all the officials in the imperial city.
Everyone knew that every one of the people that Lord Hu mentioned was Ling Yan's trusted subordinates. The crimes that those people had committed were also very clear. Moreover, many of the crimes had happened after Ling Yan became the Crown Prince, and many officials in the imperial city had heard about them in the past few days.
The officials could not help but discuss it.
Ling Yan had a good reputation in the imperial court, and many officials thought highly of him. Before this, Ling Yan had done everything flawlessly and had not done anything to displease the officials.
However …
After Ling Yan became the Crown Prince, many of his trusted subordinates had caused trouble, and most of them involved human lives.
The Eternal Emperor's expression darkened. Along with the memorial were some records from the Ministry of Justice. Those records clearly recorded the causes and consequences of the crimes committed by Ling Yan's trusted subordinates.
"Where is the Minister of Justice?" The Eternal Emperor asked coldly.
The Minister of Justice immediately stepped forward.
"I am here."
The Eternal Emperor said coldly, "Where are Wu Liang and the others?"
The Minister of Justice paled and knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Your Majesty … Wu Liang and the others … have already … left the Ministry of Justice."
"You've got guts! Who told you to let them go? "The Eternal Emperor shouted and threw the records at the Minister of Justice's face.
"I deserve to die, I deserve to die … I wanted to imprison them, but … but General Mo's daughter, Mo Yunxian, said that they were the Crown Prince's men and asked me to … release them …" The Minister of Justice said with a pale face.
In reality, Wu Liang and the others were Ling Yan's personal guards and had always been on good terms with Mo You. Naturally, they were familiar with Mo Yunxian because of their love for Mo Yunxian. Moreover, Mo Yunxian was already Ling Yan's fiancée. Wu Liang and the others naturally regarded her as the future Crown Princess and were very respectful toward Mo Yunxian.
