The Emperor Wants To Marry The Doctor

Other than the handwriting, everything else was legitimate! One just had to think to know that it was done by His Majesty’s confidants!

After much thinking, as the Grand Preceptor of the three lords, Xiahou Rong usually accompanied His Majesty and interacted with him the most.
Hence, it was the easiest and most convenient for him to do such a thing!

This time, even the observing officials looked at Xiahou Rong with different expressions. It’s a death penalty to fabricate the imperial edict! If things are serious, his family and relatives might even be implicated! Xiahou Rong must be crazy to do such a thing!

“Officer Xiahou, do you not plan to explain it?” The gentle smile on Yuwen Wei’s face had already disappeared and was replaced by a cold and sharp gaze.

The Yuwen family had never intervened in the power struggle in the imperial court.
But if it concerned His Majesty, this incident was much more serious, and they had to get to the bottom of this!

Xiahou Rong made up his mind and was determined to deny it no matter what.
“Chu Liuyue, you said that this was found in my Xiahou Residence, but do you have any evidence? Who knows if someone else did it, and you framed me for it? I, Xiahou Rong, am very loyal to His Majesty and have never done anything to betray him!”

Chu Liuyue squinted her eyes.
“Officer Xiahou, do you dare to swear on it since you’re so insistent? If you really betrayed His Majesty, your entire Xiahou family will be completely eliminated!”

Something was stuck in Xiahou Rong’s throat for a moment, but he still braved himself and said, “M-my conscience is clear.
Why won’t I dare to do it?! I-if I really have betrayed His Majesty, I’ll die without a proper burial ground!”

Chu Liuyue crossed her arms and touched her chin.
“You haven’t finished talking.
Isn’t there the part about your entire family?”

Xiahou Rong’s eyelids twitched harshly.
“Chu Liuyue, don’t go overboard!”

“Overboard? I’m helping you clean your reputation!” Chu Liuyue widened her eyes slightly.
“Didn’t you yourself say that your loyalty toward His Majesty could be attested by the heavens? What, do you not dare to continue?”

Xiahou Rong was stuck in a difficult position. If I don’t say it, Chu Liuyue and the rest won’t let this lie, and it would make me seem guilty.
But if I say it…

“The gods are three feet away from you when you raise your head! Officer Xiahou, if you’re open and just, what’s there you can’t say?”

Chu Liuyue said this clearly, but every single word was like an extremely sharp blade that pressed Xiahou Rong to the corner.

The surrounding people didn’t say a word, but every gaze landed on him substantially, forming an invisible suppression that suffocated him.

Jiang Yucheng coldly said, “Officer Xiahou, if your conscience is clear, why can’t you swear on it?”

If Xiahou Rong makes a mistake, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Xiahou Rong clenched his teeth.
“I, Xiahou Rong, swear! If I really did something to betray His Majesty, everyone in my Xiahou Residence will not have a peaceful death!”

Pak!

Pak!

Pak!

Not far away, sudden applause came amidst the dead silence.
One after another, the claps were rhythmic.

At the same time, a middle-aged man’s low voice sounded.
“Officer Xiahou, you have wise words!”

When Xiahou Rong heard this voice, his expression changed drastically.

Even Jiang Yucheng, Shangguan Wan, and the rest suddenly widened their eyes and turned around.

They saw a person in Lang Kun Hall, decked in a yellow dragon robe, walking out slowly.

Perhaps because he had stayed in bed for a long time, but he had become much thinner.
However, his bone structure was burly and large, and his back was straight as he still exuded an imperious, elegant aura just by standing there!

This was the Tianling Dynasty’s Emperor—Shangguan You!
