"Who is it? Who asked you to poison His Majesty with the slow poison? Give me that person's name. Now!" Zheng Liang bellowed. The court was enveloped in a tense hush, all eyes fixed on Bai Jiang, waiting with bated breath for him to reveal the culprit's identity. The ministers exchanged wary looks, secretly speculating whether the perpetrator was connected to Yang Lingxin or if there was a grave misunderstanding that led to her being summoned to the court as a suspect. For what motive could she have…-

Zheng Liang smirked to see Yang Lingxin shamelessly advocating her crimes and pleading innocence. Does she still think that Yang Luoyang could save her from this situation or does she believe she holds so much power to prove her innocence despite being the sinner? If that's what she thinks, then it is time to put her in her position. Unlike the last time, he will not let anyone ruin his plan and return to his chamber in disappointment. The last time, when he revealed the dark side of Yang Luoyang in…

Yang Lingxin's eyes widened in shock when she caught the sight of the two men who were now being dragged by Gu Lan to the royal court at Zheng Liang's order. 'It cannot be happening…' Out of two men, she recognised the man in white robe and could feel her soul leaving out of her body. The man who was wearing white robe was none other than the assistant physician of Master Jiang Tai who was working on her orders and adding the poisoned natural oil in steaming hot water of His Majesty during his…

The ministers were bewildered by Zheng Liang's statement and looked at the Empress with a complicated gaze. They were not sure who was in the wrong. However, seeing the way Zheng Liang was publicly confronting the Empress, it must not be a small matter. What crime did she commit to be humiliated like this in front of everyone? Considering how Zheng Liang asked the female guards to drag her to the royal court and arranged this emergency royal court session, it must be serious. Otherwise, as the Crown…

"Your Majesty!" The ministers gasped in horror when Yang Lingxin fell to her knees and was in a miserable state on the ground. Who would have thought that they would get to witness a day when the Empress will be dragged to the royal court in a humiliating way? "Your Highness, what is going on? What is the meaning of this?" One of the ministers was mortified at what happened and stepped forward and asked worriedly to see the condition of the Empress. She is the Empress of the Empire, how can the royal…

After Zheng Liang announced that the traces of the poison was not found in His Majesty's blood, but instead in his chamber and they found the person, who is behind all of this, the royal court erupted in chaos. 1 From the explanations of the Crown Prince and the Princess, it looks like the diagnosis report submitted by Master Jiang isn't falsified and His Majesty has been poisoned for real. This caused all the ministers to panic and they couldn't help but whisper to each other to find out if they…

After Yang Ning questioned the loyalty of the ministers, one of the ministers stepped forward and tried to explain their side. "Princess Consort, you are misunderstanding our intentions. We did not say that we do not trust Master Jiang or His Highness. However, it was the situation that was making us think twice before making any decision regarding this matter." 1 "We are the people who serve His Majesty and always wish the best for the Empire. That is why we work day and night, ignoring our family…

Yang Luoyang's question gave rise to the curiosity of the ministers in the royal court and sowed a seed of suspicion in their hearts against Zheng Liang's revelation. 1 It was indeed suspicious that Master Jiang unexpectedly changed his report after Zheng Liang banned everyone from meeting His Majesty and didn't allow anyone to meet him. How would they know if this report is authentic or has been fabricated on Zheng Liang's orders? What if Zheng Liang was the one who gave poison to Zheng Huang? It…

179 Emergency Court Session II “Minister Yang, are you not aware that emergency royal sessions could only be held in the situation of war or treason? However, you seem to be talking as if we have gathered here to discuss a simple case as we do on other days.” “I wonder why you are so relaxed about this situation.” Zheng Liang leaned forward and commented sarcastically. “Yes? Treason?” Yang Luoyang’s face paled at Zheng Liang’s hostile words. ‘What is going on? Treason?…
