"Heaven above!"

Li Yinhu bowed, looking up at the sky.

"Li Yinhu, as a son, prays for the well-being of his father!"

"Li Yinhu, as a subject of the Emperor, prays for his imperial father's good health!"

Li Yinhu recited loudly. After these two opening remarks, a specially designated person presented the pre-written sacrificial text. When Li Yinhu finished reciting it, it was then burned to convey it to heaven. This is the entire process of the ritual of sacrifice and prayer for blessings.

When Li Yinhu thought that everything would develop as he expected, step by step, a voice suddenly interrupted him.

"King Zhao, wait."

Under such a grand spectacle, the voices of ordinary people couldn't make a ripple.

But this effeminate and sharp voice, carried a strange magic, clearly transmitting to the ears of thousands present.

Li Yinhu's expression changed upon hearing the sound.

He was all too familiar with that voice.

The eunuch of the Dongchang, Sanbao eunuch.

A path was cleared through the crowd, and the Three Treasures walked out from it.

The three carefree and playful beauties stood under the altar, smiling kindly at Li Yinhou as they bowed. They said, "Your Highness, we are here by order to escort you back and face punishment."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was astonished.

Detention, and interrogation.

Such wording, if it were to fall on an ordinary person, it would be fine. But this subject is a prince.

Even though Li Yinhu might have been the most insignificant and powerless prince, he was still officially recognized as a royal by the imperial court. He had a place in the ancestral hall, was honored with a memorial service for past emperors, and held an official title with golden seals and badges of office.

How can a prince be detained and put on trial

But who could possibly imprison and interrogate a prince!

The crowd's uproar made Li Yinhou's face even uglier.

He stared fixedly at Sanbao, his expression cold as he said, "Sanbao, do you know what you're saying!"

Sānbǎo bowed slightly and said, “As I have clearly stated, I am here by order to escort the prince back to face questioning.”

After the initial shock and anger, Li Yinhu quickly calmed down. He said in a cold voice, "This king knows that you, a dog servant, and your master behind you will not let this king have an easy time. But today, under the eyes of all the people in the world, whatever tricks you have, just wait."

"Even if you wish to kill or dismember me, please wait until this prince has finished praying for the emperor and fulfilled this wish. Then, you may proceed."

Li Yinhu's two sentences perfectly placed him in the position of victim and weakling.

The impression he gives is that he knows someone is going to murder him, but he doesn't ask for mercy. He just wants to finish the process of praying for the emperor.

This instantly won over a lot of sympathy.

Feeling the agitated crowd and the excited whispers of the common people behind him, Siba smiled coquettishly and said in a soft voice: “Your Highness is indeed skilled. With just two sentences, you have placed your servant in an unjust position.”

Li Yinhu said coldly, "This king doesn't understand what you're saying."

"It's alright if the prince doesn't understand."

The Three Treasures seemed well-prepared. He remained calm and composed, saying: "My master had anticipated the prince's words before I went out to run errands. There is no difference between what was said before and now."

"My master said that if it were any other matter, today the prince's prayers for the emperor would move heaven and earth, so everything else could be pushed back and dealt with later."

"But the prince's crimes are grave indeed: he has murdered his own kin and endangered the royal heir. Such a heinous act against Heaven and our ancestors cannot be forgiven. Failure to punish him would be an insult to all past kings and a transgression against the divine." BiWu."Li Chen chuckled upon hearing this, saying: "Only a general knows me."It is now autumn, and the world is a tapestry of golden hues. A chill permeates the air as animals sense winter's approach,...
