Suddenly, the attendants cheered in unison, "Welco, Your Majesty!"
Both sides were taken aback and turned to look ahead, only to see Empress Jialouluo elegantly approaching amidst the crowd.
Jia Lin’s eyes lit up as if he’d found a lifeline, and he rushed forward to kneel at Jialouluo’s feet, crying out bitterly, "Mother Empress, you must stand up for ! This foreign female can’t even produce evidence and falsely accuses and my father of wrongdoing! I say she’s a spy sent to sow discord, and her heart deserves to be punished! Mother Empress, quickly have her seized!"
Shen Tang chuckled coldly in her heart, thinking that this acting was almost worthy of an Oscar.
Jialouluo frowned and looked at the crowd, "What has happened?"
"Empress, yesterday this father and son sent assassins trying to murder and Prince Jia Lan."
Shen Tang ignored the murderous looks from the father and son, smiling faintly, "You keep demanding evidence? Well then, let present the evidence to the entire world! You better take a good look!"
After she finished speaking, Shen Tang retrieved the Jade Box from her space.
The father and son were instantly petrified upon seeing the Jade Box, their expressions turning extrely grim!
Shen Tang took out the doll from the box and handed it to the Empress, asking her to personally inspect the evil item.
"Your Majesty, Jia Lan and I found this in the back palace. Everyone present can testify, and I also recorded a video as proof. If Your Majesty doesn’t believe , please watch the video!"
Shen Tang played the video on the spot.
The evidence lay before their eyes, leaving the father and son powerless to argue.
Sivall suddenly crumbled to the ground, pale-faced, unable to believe it. This? How could this be possible?!
"Mother Empress, both my father and I realize our mistake; we were blinded by foolishness! Please, Mother Empress, spare us considering we have served you faithfully for years!" Jia Lin clung to Jialouluo’s leg, crying and begging.
Jialouluo looked at the evil doll in her hand, her expression shifting while hearing the sobbing plea beside her, her heart boiling with rage. She kicked Jia Lin to the ground, "You dare beg for forgiveness from ?"
Jialouluo’s face was angry, her cold gaze falling on the kneeling father and son, her thin lips parting with an icy voice,
"Co, strip Sivall and Jia Lin of their royal family status, break their tails, dispatch them to the Hero Cave!"
As soon as she said this, the entire room fell silent, everyone stunned by the enormous wave of shock.
The Hero Cave! A place darker than any prison, a fate worse than death!
It’s the hell for Beastn, where countless tragic events unfold each year.
Beastn sent to the Hero Cave beco re toys for abuse and can never see daylight again, lasting only until they’re brutally killed!
In that place, not many years pass before a Beastman’s body collapses, rotting away like spoiled mud, with tales told of so dragged in at dusk to erge horizontally that very night, their corpse tossed in the grave fed to the Sea Beast, what misery...
Sivall’s blood ran cold, his limbs stiff and chilly, staring blankly at this monarch he’d been with day and night, his bed partner, feeling wholly abandoned, trembling as he spoke, "Why!"
He suddenly rose and charged forward, with guards instantly restraining him.
Sivall glared at Jialouluo, like a raging beast, collapsing into anger and shouting, "I admit, I did it for that prince! You want to send to a place like that!"
Jialouluo, towering above, coldly scrutinized him with imperial authority, "Now that you find a prince displeasing, you dare use such evil techniques! Would you do the sa secretly against if I ever angered you?"
Her final words sharpened in tone, and Sivall suddenly fell limp, quavering as he protested, "No, Your Majesty, I never thought..."
No matter his argunts, he was powerless.
Jialouluo regarded him like a trivial toy, beneath notice, one she detested.
Sivall had plenty more he wanted to say, but confronted with the Empress’s gaze, not a word escaped him.
His chest shook, bringing out laughter, seemingly mocking himself.
Having served by Her Majesty’s side for so many years, Sivall understood her personality too well.
Did Jialouluo truly care for the prince so fiercely? No, it was more for herself, not permitting such evil magic in her palace, purely making an example of him and his son!
The world called him her most cherished consort, otherwise he wouldn’t be titled as a secondary consort, but only Sivall knew he never held Jialouluo’s genuine affection.
Years of companionship proven fragile as paper, Your Majesty remained as ever, cold and heartless...
Jia Lin, hearing of being sent to the Hero Cave, almost wet himself, falling apart as he again clutched Jialouluo’s leg, pleading with tears, "Mother Empress! I beg you to forgive this ti, I promise to nd my ways and never again do sothing foolish! I’ll treat the prince well... Please, please don’t send to such a place! It will ruin my life!"
Jialouluo was unmoved, her gaze growing more disgusted.
She had too many consorts and children, even she couldn’t rember them all, losing one or two made no difference to her.
"Co, take them away and handle it, don’t let be bothered."
"...Yes!"
The attendants dragged them away.
Jia Lin’s wailing faded into the distance, until it vanished completely.
Shen Tang hadn’t expected Jialouluo to act so rcilessly, she recovered from her shock and spoke sincerely, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Jialouluo looked at her and said in a low voice, "No need for thanks; they violated the prohibition first, and deserved punishnt. They caused alarm to guests and Lan’er, I should apologize to you."
"Your Majesty overestimates it; now that the people are dealt with, it’s done... Oh, Your Majesty, may I have this doll?"
Jialouluo was surprised, why would she want such an evil item?
Jialouluo intended to destroy it imdiately, but Shen Tang requested it, so she didn’t bother to question more, handing it over effortlessly.
Shen Tang stored the doll in space, finding it too mysterious, too odd; destroying it imdiately seed wasteful. She wanted to study it, perhaps discovering more clues.
"By the way, what really happened yesterday?"
Shen Tang explained the attempted assassination to the Empress.
Regarding the curse within Jia Lan, Shen Tang hesitated but opted not to speak of it.
It’s the secret of the Priest Clan.
If Jialouluo was unaware, Lunus evidently hadn’t told her, so telling wasn’t Shen Tang’s place.
Jialouluo assud it was the doll’s mischief and worriedly looked at Jia Lan, relieved to find him unhard, "But later, how did you save him?"
"I entered Jia Lan’s Spiritual Illusion Realm... later, a senior found ."
Jialouluo, "Oh? Who was it?"
Jia Lan also looked at Shen Tang in amazent; within the Spiritual Illusion Realm he had few mories, unaware of the subsequent events.
Shen Tang faced both mother and son, finally speaking, "I saw Jia Lan’s father, the Sea Country High Priest."
Jialouluo was shocked, full of disbelief.
Jia Lan was even more dumbfounded on the spot.
His father is alive? The Sea Country High Priest?
