Chapter 1908: It was the end of the world

The Emperor had truly loved this eldest grandson of the Emperor.

It was because he had truly loved his eldest grandson that his betrayal and heresy made him especially angry and heartbroken.

Before this, he had always wanted to give Yuwen Xuhong a chance to admit his mistake.

As long as he sincerely repented, he could spare his life.

However, what disappointed him was that his grandson had not realized his mistake and had pushed everything onto others.

The Emperor saw Yuwen Xuhong’s shocked expression and continued,” You have nothing to say! Then tell me, why did you do such a treasonous thing?”

Yuwen Xuhong looked at the irrefutable evidence in his hands, and his face immediately turned as pale as a piece of white paper.

He was very puzzled. Why would they betray him?

However, he had to ask for his grandfather’s forgiveness. Otherwise, his life would be in danger.

Yuwen Xuhong knelt on the ground and immediately kowtowed heavily,” Royal Grandfather, I know my mistake. I know my mistake. I beg Royal Grandfather to forgive me this once!”

“Too late!” The Emperor ignored his pleas and said very majestically,” Only now did you realize your mistake and come to beg for mercy from me. Yuwen Xuhong, what are you trying to do? Do you think that your begging for mercy will really make me spare your life?”

Yuwen Xuhong’s expression froze, and then panic, fear, and uneasiness surged into his heart.

He kept shaking his head with tears streaming down his face.” Imperial Grandfather, it’s not like this. It’s not like this!”

After saying that, he looked at the Crown Prince and pleaded,” Uncle Crown Prince, can you help me plead with Imperial Grandfather? I was really wrong, Uncle Crown Prince!”

When the Crown Prince heard Yuwen Xuhong’s words, he looked at him with a complicated expression.

In the past, he had also doted on this royal nephew, who was not much older than him.

However, when he learned that he was secretly plotting to pull him, the Imperial Uncle, down from the position of Crown Prince, he was very heartbroken and angry.

At this moment, when he saw his nephew crying, his heart ached.

Now, he was only watching and listening to the royal study, but he was still extremely surprised by some of the results.

“In order to protect you, Prince Ping did not hesitate to sacrifice his life!” The Emperor said coldly,” But you are good. In front of conclusive evidence, you still want to push all the blame onto Prince Ping. What a waste of Prince Ping’s love!”

When Yuwen Xuhong heard this, his eyes could not help but widen, and his heart trembled fiercely.

Even so, he still didn’t understand what went wrong.

These pieces of evidence were clearly signed by Prince Ping and the other two, so why wasn’t Prince Ping the one who betrayed them?

“You don’t understand, do you?” The Emperor glared at him sternly.” Then I’ll tell you what’s going on!”

The Emperor pointed at Lin Yuelan and said,” This is because they ate the truth pills that the girl developed!”

“What?” Yuwen Xuhong was shocked.

He had never thought that the truth of his betrayal would be like this.

Then, he remembered.

At the court, Lin Yuelan kept saying that she had a truth pill that could make people tell the truth.

Although he was suspicious, he had to be cautious just in case.

Therefore, when the man who tried to assassinate Second Brother Hu was captured and was about to be taken into the palace, he was anxious. For this reason, he did not hesitate to send a large number of death warriors to silence him.

But in the end, the leader of the group of death warriors was captured, which made them even more anxious, causing things to get out of hand.

However, he did not expect that, in the end, it was a small pill in Lin Yuelan’s hand that caused him to fail.

Yuwen Xuhong looked at Lin Yuelan angrily at the thought of this. His eyes were filled with viciousness and resentment.

He roared,” Lin Yuelan, why are you ruining my plans?”

Lin Yuelan wasn’t angry at being questioned. Instead, she laughed and said,” Imperial grandson, your question is really funny! Ruin your plans? What did this princess do to you? Why don’t you tell me first!”

Yuwen Xuhong was speechless.
