Long Yi Sheng looks around and continue
"And there will be a price for making the empress sad, there is no way that this emperor will let it slide like that"
He smiled coldly before turning to Ling Wei
"The Emperor investigated this issue thanks to our honorable guests, we found important evidence"
Ling Wei said then look at Madam Cong condensing
"and this did not happen just once! It totally provoked me! Testing me over and over again! That these people think that this empress is dead!"
Long Yi Sheng holds her hands realizing she is getting agitated again so he continues
"Let the evidence come!"
Madam Cong has already sitting on pins and needles since Long Yi Sheng this topic, but she is confident that there will be no evidence.
Then her head buzzed when she saw the people she sent.
"let them talk"
Long Yi Sheng said so the guards command them.
"Y-your majesty have mercy! W-we beg of you! S-someone just pays us to do so!"
"Who asked you?"
"W-we don't know! the person is fully covered"
Then Long Yi Sheng signals his people and a person fully covered enters
Madam Cong felt chills all over her body when she saw the person.
The guards remove the cover.
Almost all the madams gasped in shock when they saw the criminal's face
"Isn't this Madam Cong's personal maid!"
They all looked at Madam Cong strangely.
"Your majesty do have a misunderstanding here?"
But Long Yi Sheng handed the evidence to a eunuch to read it.
Ling Wei looked at Madam Cong and loudly said
"You should know the punishment of your sins, right? You tried so hard to make a way for your daughter, then let this empress cut it! Whoever dares to marry her will suffer as well!"
"W-what do you mean?"
"if a noble married her, his title will be revoked, if she marries a merchant, my family will make their life a living hell! Your beloved daughter can only marry a commoner! Isn't exciting?"
Madam Cong slumps into the ground
"N-no! P-please I am begging you"
"When you did these despicable things you never think about the consequences right? How dare you try trampling my pride over and over again! How dare you question his majesty's affection towards me!"
Long Yi Sheng gently patted her back to calm her down.
The nobles start to look down at Madam Cong, so what if her daughter is the most beautiful? So what if she is talented? Her boundless future is now gone thanks to her mother!
Master Cong looks lividly at his wife and badly wants to hit her but, it will be disrespectful.
"Y-your majesty I am begging you! My daughter is beautiful, talented, kind, and gentle! I raise her to be the person perfect for you! I-i am begging"
The crowd was dumbfounded.
"YOU!"
Ling Wei loudly said, then she felt the ground shake, her sight blurred and she passed out.
