Ye Yiheng's sinister and ruthless reputation was well-known among the high-ranking officials.
However, rumors of this nature seemed to have become scarce in the past year.
Oh, no!
Indeed, there was one such rumor last year, about the time when Princess Beilan was pushed into the water, and the culprits met a gruesome end.
But it was said that Prince Liang played a major role in dealing with those villains.
In any case, the Crown Prince's resumption of such methods indicated that his nature hadn't changed.
Yet, why would the steady and composed Heir Lai Yu Yue collude with the sinister Crown Prince?
Many officials couldn't understand.
Since they couldn't figure it out, and given the sudden shift in momentum today, the ministers simply gave up trying, carefully tucking their tails and concealing the unease in their hearts and eyes.
At that moment, the Emperor declared loudly, "Ye Gaoyun was guilty of treason, and he deserved to die."
