I became a big shot in the quick transmigration world.

Chapter 910 His White Moonlight 43
Upon hearing their names, the officials involved trembled with fear and knelt down on the ground.

Besides Zhang Chengdong's letter, Yu Muhuai and others also collected other evidence from various sources, all of which proved that the supplies transported this time were severely underweight and that the Third Prince was involved.

In addition to the assassins captured by Yu Muhuai, and the testimonies of the subsequent assassins after being tortured and interrogated, the target can be definitively identified as the Third Prince.

Lou Yunsheng listed the Third Prince's crimes one by one, and presented all the evidence, clearly indicating that he was prepared to bring the Third Prince down.

Upon seeing this, the third prince knelt down with a thud and kowtowed repeatedly to the emperor.

His strength and the loudness of his voice made Lou Yunsheng frown.

"Father! I'm innocent! I'm innocent!"
"How could I possibly do such a thing to my younger brother? Someone must be trying to frame me, Father! Please see the truth!"

In front of everyone, in the imperial court, the Third Prince appeared to be that good-for-nothing playboy, trembling with fear.

He wailed and cried, tears and snot streaming down his face, and collapsed to his knees, completely lacking any semblance of dignity and backbone.

He doesn't seem like an ambitious person who wants to seize the throne at all.

Lou Yunsheng looked indifferently at his third brother kneeling on the ground, a cold smile playing on his lips.

He had been deceived by the other party's appearance all along.

She hid it even better than him!

The Emperor sat high on his throne, quietly watching the Third Prince's performance.

He had no expression, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking.

After a long while, when the Third Prince's voice had become hoarse from wailing, the Emperor finally spoke.

"Take the Third Prince away first. As for the Imperial Clan Court, this matter will be handled by Song Yan."

After saying this, he announced the end of the court session, his voice still carrying a hint of weariness.

Song Yan was the official who went to Gushui City to summon Lou Yunsheng back.

Since the previous dynasty, Song Yan has served as an official in the court. For decades, he has worked diligently and discreetly, never taking the initiative to get involved in any factional struggles.

He only works for the Emperor.

He was one of the emperor's most trusted ministers.

The Emperor entrusted this matter to him to prevent the officials involved from showing favoritism.

However, Lou Yunsheng understood that his father had not yet pronounced a verdict or carefully examined the case, indicating that he wanted to spare the Third Prince's life.

The crown prince is gone, and the emperor only has three sons left.

Even though he was in the royal family, where bloodshed was everywhere, as a father, he absolutely did not want to see any more scenes of family members killing each other.

Lou Yunsheng, seeing that things were going well, did not press the matter further. Instead, he bowed and respectfully saw the emperor off as he left the court.

After the emperor withdrew, someone stepped forward to escort the third prince to the Imperial Clan Court.

The Imperial Clan Court was a department specifically responsible for managing the affairs of the imperial family and its relatives.

The third prince had been kneeling for too long, and when he stood up, he was swaying and almost couldn't stand. He needed someone to help him up before he could recover.

He turned around and immediately looked at Lou Yunsheng, who was not far away.

Although both are princes, their current situations are worlds apart.

The Third Prince slowly walked up to Lou Yunsheng, gritted his teeth, and stared at him with a vicious look that seemed to want to pierce Lou Yunsheng's body.

"Sixth brother, you really are cunning!"

Lou Yunsheng glanced at the Third Prince and scoffed, "Third Brother, shouldn't I be saying this to you? I never expected you to have hidden it so well all this time."

On the surface, he seems carefree and indulges in sensual pleasures, but in reality, he has already made all the necessary preparations and is just waiting for the right moment to strike.

Who would have thought that my third brother would possess such abilities? It's truly astonishing.

Surrounded by people, the Third Prince naturally wouldn't admit to anything.

He glared fiercely at Lou Yunsheng and said unwillingly, "Father will make a fair judgment. A person with a clear conscience has nothing to fear!" After saying that, he turned around and was escorted away from the court.

After seeing the Emperor's attitude, Lou Yunxian concluded that the Emperor would definitely spare his life.

As long as he sticks to his guns and shifts all the blame onto others, he might actually be able to clear his name and only need to join the crew for a while.

No matter what, as long as you're alive, there's always a chance to start over!

If he were to end up like the former crown prince, that would be the most tragic outcome.

Having made up his mind, the Third Prince walked with much more steady steps.

Lou Yunsheng watched the other person's departing figure, narrowed his eyes, and seemed to be thinking about something.

Since His Highness Prince Duan returned to the capital, the first major event was naturally the Third Prince's alleged involvement in embezzlement, bribery, and plotting against his younger brother.

However, the case is still under investigation and there are no results yet.

Not long after, a second major event occurred.

Princess Duan requested a divorce.

The news shocked the entire imperial city.

Moreover, Princess Duan did not discuss the matter privately with Prince Duan; instead, she directly submitted a memorial to the Emperor, requesting his permission for them to divorce.

That very day, the matter escalated to the point of being brought to the imperial court.

Ever since Lou Yunsheng and his group returned from Gushui City, he had sensed that something was wrong with Yuwen Xue.

When they were in Gushui City, she had also brought up divorce, but at that time the two were arguing, so Lou Yunsheng didn't take it to heart, thinking it was just a young girl throwing a tantrum and that he could coax her into it.

Unexpectedly, Yuwen Xue's attitude remained unchanged after she returned.

No, she's becoming increasingly determined to get a divorce.

Lou Yunsheng felt utterly helpless.

He rubbed his temples, feeling a terrible headache.

He then took two steps forward, trying to grasp Yuwen Xue's hand, but unexpectedly, she broke free.

Lou Yunsheng's tone also turned somewhat unpleasant. He frowned and coaxed, "Xiaoxue, stop making a fuss."

Yuwen Xue's body stiffened.

She looked at Lou Yunsheng, her eyes filled with a sense of desolation.

"Your Highness, do you think all my actions are just being unreasonable?"

Lou Yunsheng sighed and patiently explained, "Xiaoxue, I don't think you're being unreasonable. It's just that divorce is no child's play. How can you bring it up again and again?"

Yuwen Xue chuckled softly, then lowered her head.

She suddenly felt a bitter taste in her mouth.

The bitterness didn't stem from whether Lou Yunsheng loved her or how much he loved her, but from within herself.

Thinking back to my past self, I was someone who loved someone wholeheartedly but received no response, someone who abandoned everything and came to a foreign land alone for the sake of loving that person.

She was naive back then, but very brave.

She thought her innocent self was quite cute, but she prefers herself now.

They are opinionated, have an independent personality, enjoy doing things, and have future goals.

She looked up at Lou Yunsheng across from her and smiled with relief.
