Chapter 984: Chapter 984: Those Who Bla
“Mother…”
Sui Zilin was completely stunned and looked up at his mother.
“You…”
“Lin’er, in the presence of your royal father, won’t you tell the truth quickly? Do you really want to go to Young Master Suri’s funeral?” the Empress Dowager pressed him once more, her last words spoken in a low voice intended for Sui Zilin alone.
The Emperor had many sons; he could afford to lose one, even if Sui Zilin was his favorite. Even if he wasn’t sent to his death, the Emperor would punish him severely, ensuring he would never have a chance to turn things around.
As for the National Teacher, he would never allow her son a chance to turn things around either. It was very likely he would strike from the shadows, and her son wouldn’t even know how he died.
She had seen for herself the National Teacher’s thods!
“Your son…”
Sui Zilin swallowed hard. That last sentence from his mother had sunk in.
Although he looked down upon a re subject, he had to admit that Suyang was indeed not soone he could afford to provoke at the mont.
“Mother… Father, your son realizes his mistake. It wasn’t my intention to do this, it was… it was Sui Zimo, he deliberately seduced your son into doing this, it was his two guards, constantly whispering in my ear about Suri’s faults, that’s why… that’s why I moved against Suri.”
He imdiately shifted the bla, pointing the finger at Ya Molian.
“Tsk!”
Ya Molian snorted with laughter.
“Commander Mo, His Highness Prince Lin claims it was your guards who deliberately guided him to kill Young Master Suri.”
He looked toward Commander Mo, who was still kneeling on the ground, and spoke indifferently.
The mont Commander Mo heard Sui Zilin’s words, he felt that things were going terribly wrong, and by the ti Ya Molian brought him up, he had already cursed Sui Zilin countless tis in his heart.
“Your Majesty, those guards of mine are Your Majesty’s confidants. You especially assigned them to
for rescuing His Highness Prince Lin at White Blind Mountain,” claid Commander Mo.
Fortunately, Commander Mo was no pushover, and with a swift turn, he directed the bla right back at the Emperor.
Indeed, the two guards who had been attending to Sui Zilin in his carriage were the Emperor’s confidants assigned to him. Even if he wanted to bribe them, he wouldn’t be foolish enough to try bribing those in the Emperor’s inner circle, would he?
The Emperor: “…”
He gritted his teeth and glared at Commander Mo, then took another look at Ya Molian before turning his gaze toward Sui Zilin.
“Lin’er, are you accusing my n of deliberately instructing you to kill the National Teacher’s son?” he asked coldly.
“No, not at all…”
Sui Zilin was utterly confused, his eyes darting back and forth between Ya Molian and the Emperor.
“Those two guards, they were clearly Sui Zimo’s n, it was clearly him… Father, he frad your son,” he insisted, still looking at Ya Molian.
He clearly rembered those guards claiming they served Ya Molian and complaining about how they were always scorned by him. They seed intent on winning his favor so that they might one day join his side.
How could they… how could they be the Emperor’s confidants?
“Silence!”
The Emperor gave a sideways glance to an unruffled Ya Molian, then returned his attention to the frantic Sui Zilin.
One was calm and collected, knowing that this matter had nothing to do with him, and therefore remained uninvolved and unresponsive, while the other was like a madman, still trying to twist the truth and push the bla onto others even at this point.
He took a deep breath and looked toward the National Teacher Suyang.
