As even the Crown Prince's uncle, the Grand Secretary himself, had begun to kneel, Commandant of Guards Maxton and Chief Attendant Paston both followed suit.
Imperial Secretariat Director Ingim, as well as the five generals who controlled the Golden Crow Guards, were a bit hesitant at first. However, when they saw the grandmaster Elder Wu giving them a pointed look, they also kneeled one after another.
The Golden Crow Crown Prince was overjoyed. He quickly walked forward to help them to their feet, calling out, "Everyone, please rise!"
"Thank you, your majesty!"
After they rose again one after another, Chief Attendant Paston said, "Second Prince harbors unfilial thoughts. Previously, even when the late Fiend Emperor was still here, he dared to assassinate the Crown Prince."
