The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1247

Satisfied with the changes in King Yinglan's expression, Xu Tian directly presented some of the evidence.

King Yinglan took a serious look and found that almost all of them were true. He simply couldn't continue to help the civil official.

"Useless! They couldn't even hide all this stuff." King Yinglan couldn't help but curse inwardly, wishing he could just go and find that civil official and ask him directly.

"Since Your Highness has already reviewed all the evidence, what would Your Highness like to say now?" Xu Tian wanted to hear Prince Yinglan's opinion.

He could actually guess what the King of England was thinking.

But he didn't care at all; he just wanted to settle some things.

"Your Excellency is always exceptionally capable, and I truly admire you." Although he was smiling, Prince Yinglan's words were tinged with resentment.

Having placed the evidence on the table, King Yinglan no longer particularly wanted to look at it. Given the current situation, he could only stand on Xu Tian's side.

Otherwise, many things will be exposed directly.

"It was my fault just now, I said so many wrong things. Now I think that civil official really went too far," King Yinglan quickly said.

Having just finished speaking, King Yinglan quickly continued, "We should punish him properly now. If we don't punish him, how will he face other civil officials in the future? I will absolutely not allow such a thing to happen."

Xu Tian nodded slightly, his mood improving considerably.

After clapping his hands, Xu Tian quickly had his men bring in the civil official.

Before King Yinglan could speak, Xu Tian had already told the civil official everything that had just happened, and the civil official's body began to tremble with fear.

The civil official wanted to beg King Yinglan for mercy, but King Yinglan gave him an angry look.

Instantly, the civil official lowered his head in fear, not daring to utter a single word. He could understand the emotions hidden in King Yinglan's eyes.

Xu Tian pretended that he knew nothing and just kept looking at the civil official.

Just as he was about to speak, King Yinglan suggested that a few more civil officials be called over to handle the matter.

Nodding, Xu Tian readily agreed to King Yinglan's idea. Since King Yinglan couldn't do anything about it anyway, Xu Tian's expression remained calm.

King Yinglan quickly sent for several civil officials. When they arrived, they simply stood by, looking somewhat bewildered.

"What do you think we should do next?" Xu Tian quickly threw all the questions at Xu Tian, ​​wanting to hear his thoughts.

He always had a feeling that something bad might actually happen.

In that case, Xu Tian nodded slightly, “Since Your Highness has said so, then I should now state your crimes and punishments.”

The civil official hoped that King Yinglan would plead for him, but King Yinglan said nothing, knowing that he was truly out of options.

"Although I want you to live, what you've done is too much, and the only option is to execute you in the autumn." Xu Tian said this almost without hesitation.

Upon hearing the punishment, the civil official was completely dumbfounded.

Finally realizing what had happened, the civil official was so frightened he almost burst into tears: "I didn't mean it, please forgive me, Lord Marquis, don't punish me so severely."

He doesn't want to die.
