The Eldest Prince was about to speak and echo the Second Princess when Ling Yan suddenly said, "Second Royal Sister is right.
"Second Royal Sister is right. Embezzling the disaster relief funds is an unforgivable crime. Not only will we let Father down, but we will also let the people down."
The Second Princess had already prepared a reprimand, but it was stuck in her throat when she heard Ling Yan scolding himself. She could no longer maintain her cold expression.
What was going on?
Did Ling Yan want to die today?
Ling Yan had said everything the Eldest Prince and Second Princess wanted to say. For a moment, the Eldest Prince and Second Princess did not know where to start.
They could only look at the Eternal Emperor, who was frowning.
This …
Ling Yan had admitted his guilt. Royal Father should at least depose him as the Crown Prince.
The Eternal Emperor finished flipping through all the files and suddenly took a deep breath.
"I never thought that there would be such an ambitious person by my side …" The Eternal Emperor's face was so dark that it seemed like it was about to drip water. His gaze swept across everyone in the court.
The Eldest Prince and Second Princess were delighted to hear the Eternal Emperor's words.
"Where is Jiang Shuo!" The Eternal Emperor shouted.
As the commander of the imperial guards, Jiang Shuo immediately stepped forward.
"Present!"
"Go …" The Eternal Emperor took a deep breath. "Capture Meng Yi and General Mo's Deputies!"
Everyone was stunned by the Eternal Emperor's words.
What was going on?
Wasn't he interrogating Ling Yan?
Why did the Eternal Emperor suddenly say that he wanted to capture General Mo's Deputies?
Everyone was puzzled, but no one dared to ask in front of the Eternal Emperor. They could only suppress their puzzlement.
Before long, Jiang Shuo brought Meng Yi and the other Deputy Generals to the main hall. Before everyone in the main hall could react, the Eternal Emperor flipped his hand and smashed the dossiers that Ling Yan had handed over onto Meng Yi and the others.
"How dare you all! I ordered you to accompany the Crown Prince to provide disaster relief, but you dared to embezzle the disaster relief funds! "The Eternal Emperor shouted coldly when he saw everyone.
Meng Yi and the others were shocked when they saw the files in front of them.
"Your Majesty, spare us! Please spare my life, Your Majesty! "
At this moment, the Eldest Prince and the others finally saw the contents of the scrolls clearly.
However, this glance caused the hearts of the Eldest Prince and the others to turn cold.
The dossiers clearly recorded all the details of the embezzlement of the disaster relief funds, and every stroke was recorded in detail. However, the final destination of the dossiers was not Ling Yan, but the people who were captured and brought to the hall.
Everyone's hearts were filled with astonishment. They had no idea what was going on in front of them.
Seeing that they were caught, Ling Yan immediately said, "Back then, Royal Father sent me to the borders to provide disaster relief and ordered Meng Yi and the rest to accompany me. I fell ill on the way and could not go immediately. I could only order Meng Yi and the rest to bring the money first, but I did not expect that Meng Yi and the rest had ill intentions and actually swallowed more than half of the money."
"By the time I found out, they had already swallowed all the money. The refugees at the border were pitiful. Since I carried the name of Imperial Father, I did not dare to delay for even a moment. I could only sell my family's property to fill the gap."
As he spoke, Ling Yan nodded at an old official in the court.
