"Your Excellency Prime Minister, may I ask where this talented person from another world is from? Why do you respect him so much?" The official next to him saw that Mr. Bai was having a good chat with the group of people who had just arrived, and couldn't help but gossiping.

Father Bai glanced at his colleague and then told him mysteriously, "This is a noble man. I'm afraid His Majesty will have to be respectful when he sees him. I'm just being polite."

When his colleagues heard his tone and looked at his expression, they all seemed serious, so it seemed to be true.

"I wonder if the Prime Minister could introduce one or two to me, so that I can have an impression of them in the future, so as not to offend you."

Although Pei Shu was naughty when she was young, she rarely caused trouble to the royal family. After becoming the peak master, she restrained herself, so many up-and-coming people had only heard of her rumors but had never seen her in person.

"The Emperor has arrived! The Queen has arrived!"

Father Bai hesitated for a few moments and still didn't say anything. He happened to hear the announcement that the emperor had arrived, so he immediately lowered his voice and stood up to pay his respects like everyone else.

Pei Shu and his family did not perform the same formal ceremony as them, but simply stood up and bowed slightly.

He is just an emperor, not worthy of such great courtesy. Such great courtesy can only be shown when one is becoming a disciple.

Murong An looked around, satisfied to see that all the civil and military officials in the court respected him. He felt satisfied and happy and wanted to call them to get up, but he noticed several figures standing nearby.

"You are..." Murong An hesitated for a moment, looking at the group of people who seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember for a moment.

"I am Pei Shu, the master of Xuan Yi Sect's Wentian Peak. Your Majesty, you are a little busy with important matters." Pei Shu answered him with a smile, but the smile was not in his eyes.

Murong An felt a chill down his spine when he heard her veiled words, and hurriedly laughed, "Haha, I've been so busy with government affairs that I've forgotten what the Peak Master looks like. I'm really sorry. My dear ministers, please take a seat. I'll drink a glass of wine as a punishment to apologize to Peak Master Pei."

Pei Shu responded with a fake smile and sat down first.

Murong An was embarrassed for a moment, then smiled, took the wine cup beside him, drank it all in one gulp before sitting down.

When the ministers below saw His Majesty take his seat, they sat down with peace of mind, and their tense bodies relaxed a little.

Murong An glanced at Pei Shu with gritted teeth. If the sect was not too powerful, how could it be able to suppress the royal family? He was the emperor, but he could not have as much say as the leader of a sect.

In the future, when those masters rule the entire continent, he, Murong An, swears to become an existence second to none and above ten thousand people, instead of bowing down to this group of broken sects.

"I didn't know that Master Pei Feng had come all the way here. It was I, Murong An, who failed to welcome you. I hope Master Pei Feng won't blame me too much."

This passage is interesting. It not only shows that Pei Shu came uninvited, but also implicitly accuses her of being petty. It is really a well-spoken statement.

"No, the purpose of my coming here today is nothing else but to ask about what my disciple encountered in your hunting ground. Your Majesty the Emperor does not need to blame yourself too much." Pei Shu took a sip of the sake in the glass and said calmly.

Hearing this, not only Murong An's body stiffened, but most of the officials below also broke out in a sweat.

Isn't it obvious that they are here to settle scores? It was bad enough that those good-for-nothing kids didn't shine in the hunting competition, but they had to be rescued by a little girl. Ultimately, this incident was all caused by the Third Princess and the Seventh Prince.

They wanted to report the Third Princess and the Seventh Prince, but the World-Viewing Mirror had not been opened for several days, and they had no evidence, so they could only swallow their anger.

"I wonder what Master Pei Feng wants to ask? There were some problems with the Sun-Viewing Mirrors, and they were unable to capture the events in the hunting grounds."

Murong An pretended to be calm. As soon as there was a sign of the truth being exposed, he sent someone to snatch the Peeping Mirror. Now it was out. There was no witness or evidence. He didn't believe that Pei Shu could find anything based on empty words.

Pei Shu tapped the table with his fingers and spoke carefully: "I know there is something wrong with the Peeping Mirror, but if we didn't have evidence, why would we come here rashly?"

After she said this, the emperor and his ministers became even more worried.

"Oh? I wonder where Master Pei Feng got his evidence from, and what the accusation is?" Murong An's hands unconsciously grasped the armrests of the chair. Could it be that this woman really has evidence?

Pei Shu said no more, he spread out his palm, and a round plate suddenly appeared in his hand.

After being stimulated by spiritual power, the disc flew to the center of the hall, and the scenes of those days slowly emerged.

"When my sect's disciples go on missions, they usually bring afterimage disks to record the missions and battles so that they can observe and correct mistakes later. Coincidentally, my disciple also brought this disk with him during the hunting competition. I am sharing it with you now. I think that in a few days, everyone in this ancient continent should know what happened."

Pei Shu spoke in a calm tone, as if it was an ordinary matter.

The events recorded on the Afterimage Disk were playing slowly, starting from Murong Xue and Murong Lin setting up a trap to absorb the blood of officials' children, and ending with Gu Qinghan and Bai Ziyue being severely injured by the four sacred beasts. The speed of the Afterimage Disk was very fast, but every scene was recorded clearly.

Murong An's face almost turned pale after watching this image, and his murderous intent became even stronger. He even wanted to make Pei Shu and her disciples disappear from this world immediately.

"How about it, Your Majesty? Would you like to explain to us why your heirs are killing their own kind and what their purpose is? And, Your Majesty, do you know about these things?"

Murong An wanted to destroy the afterimage disk, but Pei Shu was faster and the afterimage disk fell back into her hands.

Seeing that he couldn't snatch it away, Murong An's face turned pale and green.

At this time, the court officials below could no longer hold back. If there was no evidence, it would be fine, but now that the evidence is conclusive, they naturally wanted justice.

"Your Majesty, please give us an explanation. It is not easy for a minister to have a child. Now that I am old, I am looking forward to my children and grandchildren becoming successful. Is the behavior of the prince and princess because the court cannot tolerate us?"

The court officials spoke with such conviction that the originally quiet side hall became noisy with questions coming one after another.

Murong Xue and Murong Lin, who were originally sitting quietly in their seats, also panicked. Although they were the ones who did it, their father's help was indispensable behind the scenes. But now the court officials are in chaos and Murong An can't control the situation. What will be their end?

For the first time, the two felt the feeling of being pushed down by the crowd, and their faces were embarrassed and angry.

They are obviously the heirs of the throne, how can those lowly people compare to them?

Until now, they still believed that Murong An could protect them, and they also believed that Murong An could handle these things well, because he was the emperor.
