The eldest son is fierce

On the second floor, in a spacious room.

All the civil and military officials in the court, as well as the patriarchs of the aristocratic families in Kyoto, were standing in the room.

After they were secretly transferred out of Kyoto, they secretly went up to the second floor of the manor through the back door and waited in the room with Emperor Yanwen for more than an hour.

There was no tea, no one to serve, and no one even dared to speak or ask questions. No one dared to breathe.

No one knows what Emperor Yanwen really wants to do!

It was not until the heavy door opened and the Crown Prince, Fan Mingzhong and Yuwen Feng walked in from outside that they finally realized that this was a trap set by Emperor Yanwen against Fan Mingzhong, the Crown Prince and others.

Especially the Fan Party and the Prince Party, their hearts sank at this moment, and they felt that the blood in their bodies had frozen.

The Crown Prince and Fan Mingzhong must be reminded that this is a trap, a trap set by the Emperor and Tang Yi in order to catch the thief and the stolen goods!

However, while they were still trying to figure out how to transmit the message, Fan Mingzhong had already ordered his men to pull away the cloth covering the goods!

Beneath the curtains were rows of tightly packed iron cages, each filled with children and women. As the curtains were lifted, sunlight once again shone through, and the women and children inside burst into heartbreaking tears...

In fact, many children had their hands and feet chopped off, were casually bandaged, and then thrown into iron cages, leaving them covered in blood and looking horrible!

In an instant, the whole room was silent and you could hear a pin drop.

Originally, the space was limited, and hundreds of people were crowded together, sweating profusely. But now, everyone felt like they were in the coldest weather, and their whole bodies were terribly cold!

It turns out that the rumors are true.

The Crown Prince and Fan Mingzhong actually teamed up with the third prince of Beidi, Yuwen Feng, to traffic women and children from Dayan.

The emperor asked them to come here today to serve as witnesses.

"Damn it, you idiots, you idiots, with your brains, you dare to play with Tang Yi?!!" Qi Wendao clenched his fists, his eyes red with anger.

The ministers of the Fan Party behind him were so scared that their legs went weak. Most of them were Fan Mingzhong's accomplices. If Fan Mingzhong gave them away, the consequences would be serious!

"Mr. Qi, we have to remind Fan Mingzhong, otherwise everything will be over." Someone reminded Qi Wendao, but his voice was trembling.

Qi Wendao stared coldly at the minister who was speaking. "Don't I know this? Do I need you to tell me?"

Taking a look at the group of ministers behind him who were already sweating profusely from fear, Qi Wendao knew that they were no longer reliable and that he could only rely on himself.

His mind raced, and he feigned shock, furiously demanding, "How is this possible? How could His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Fan Mingzhong do such a treasonous act?"

"Your Majesty, there must be a misunderstanding here."

Many people immediately understood his intention. I didn't mean to speak out. I was just so shocked that I couldn't help it.

In an instant, many people followed suit.

"That's right, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the heir to the throne, it's impossible for him to do such a thing."

"Your Majesty, someone must be trying to frame His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Fan Mingzhong."

"Your Majesty, this matter must be handled with caution, lest it trigger a war between Yan and Di!"

"..."

Emperor Yanwen raised his head and swept his cold eyes across the entire room. The room that had just been noisy fell into silence again.

"What? Have you forgotten the decree I issued in the palace and are planning to defy it?"

Emperor Yanwen stood with his hands behind his back and said in a stern voice, "I know you want to report the news, but, listening to the voices outside, can you report it?"

The ministers were stunned, and then many of them fell into despair.

The noises they made just now were definitely loud, but compared to the cries of hundreds of children and women in the hall, it was like a drop of water falling into the sea, unable to create even a single ripple!

"I'll say it again, watch carefully. Anyone who dares to make strange noises again will be killed along with his entire clan."

Emperor Yanwen looked at Ningchuan and said, "Ningchuan, you will be registered and executed immediately afterwards."

When the ministers saw Ning Chuan really took out paper and pen, they immediately shut up and dared not say another word.

The eldest princess stood behind Emperor Yanwen, looking at the hall with a smile from beginning to end, without even looking at the ministers.

How could the righteousness of these cowards be as interesting as Tang Yi fighting the demons alone in the hall? Moreover, this drama was the one she personally set up for Tang Yi.

Du Huaifang stared at the scene in the hall, his expression extremely grim. Two men of noble status, the crown prince and the prime minister's son, were personally involved in trafficking civilians. If this got out, how could the Great Yan court still maintain its dignity?!

As the prince's grand tutor, Wang Anxiu collapsed to the ground and began to question his life when he saw the arrogant prince.

Some time ago, he joined hands with the Fan Party to put various pressures on Emperor Yanwen in order to help the prince vent his anger. The prince was his disciple, and he had been tutoring him since he was young, spending countless efforts on him. He did not believe that the prince would do such a conscienceless thing.

It must be Tang Yi who is framing me!

But now, the prince used reality to slap him hard in the face.

Wang Anxiu covered his chest and said, "Oh my God, what kind of person have I taught?"

……

In the main hall.

Tang Yi's face turned cold as he listened to the heart-wrenching cry.

He didn't even glance at the children and women around him. Instead, he stared coldly at Fan Mingzhong, Yuwen Feng and the other two, and slowly drew out the giant sword behind him.

"This is a great gift. I like it very much. Thank you."

He pointed the giant sword in his hand at Fan Mingzhong and the Crown Prince, and said word by word: "Crown Prince Xiao Cong of Great Yan, and Fan Mingzhong, son of Prime Minister Fan Yong, you have joined forces with the Northern Di thief Yuwen Feng to sell out our people of Great Yan."

"Do you guys know your crime?!"

Hearing this, Xiao Cong and Fan Mingzhong looked at each other and laughed.

The laughter was crazy and ferocious.

"I know my crime, I know my crime, Master, I know my crime."

Fan Mingzhong raised his hand to his chest, his face filled with fear. "Master Tang, I deserve death. The Crown Prince and I have collaborated to sell tens of thousands of children and women. We are fully aware of the enormity of our crimes."

"Please, come and kill us, come and put an end to our sins!"

"Come, come, Lord Tang, use your magic to kill us!"

"We, please kill us!"

The prince also stared at Tang Yi with disdain on his face.

He pointed at Tang Yi and sneered, "Tang Yi, why are you so arrogant? You are just a dog under the Emperor's command."

"When you're needed, you just bark a few times. Do you really think you're a big shot?"

"I am the Crown Prince. The saying that a king who breaks the law is subject to the same punishment as a commoner... Haha, that's ridiculous."

"The crime I have committed is enough to punish my entire clan. What? Do you want the emperor to kill himself?"

"Hahaha, so what if you knew the truth? So what if you knew that I was involved in human trafficking?"

"Believe it or not, if you die today, I will still be the emperor in the future and can still pin the crime of human trafficking on your head?"

Hearing this, Tang Yi couldn't help but let out the murderous intent in his body.

Damn it, you’re about to die, yet you still dare to be so arrogant!

But the crazier you are, the happier I am!

He pointed his sword at Fan Mingzhong and said, "Damn it, you two are not capable of handling such a big plate."

"Who in the court is involved?!"
