Ye Yiheng understood the Emperor's expression, he probably wouldn't sentence Ye Zhenyu and Ye Zhengmo severely, so he cupped his hands and said, "Li Lu is the daughter of Leng Zongfa, Ye Zhengmo knew well of Leng Zongfa's crimes, yet kept Li Lu in the mansion without permission, what was his intention?"
"Lai Manting's face was altered to resemble Yanyan, what was their intention then?"
"Today, both Ye Zhenyu and Ye Zhengmo launched fierce attacks at Your Majesty and Yanyan, this is witnessed by all the other brothers, there is no doubt in this matter. Father Emperor, are you planning to settle this matter with just their statements?"
The Crown Prince's three successive questions left the Emperor speechless.
After a long pause, the Emperor said to himself, "It's all due to Lai Manting and Li Lu's instigation, disrupting the harmony amongst the Tian Family Princes. Lai Manting and Li Lu are to be executed by Lingchi on another day."
