The patrol team leader hinted that the assassin might have entered the Dragon Tent, causing all the officials present to tense up, their gaze falling on Xiao Yeyang.
The Crown Prince looked at Xiao Yeyang with a serious expression, "Xiao Yeyang, is it true as the third brother said, are you really hiding something from us?"
The third prince spoke up, "Elder brother, we actually don’t need to say much to him. When father went hunting, he was by his side to protect him, yet he failed to safeguard our father, allowing him to be injured. How does this guilty man have any right to stand here and obstruct us, the princes?"
Hearing the third prince’s words, Xiao Yeyang’s face turned completely cold, "I am guilty?"
The third prince glanced at a few of the Crown Prince’s brothers.
The Crown Prince thought for a moment and looked directly at Xiao Yeyang, "You failed to protect the carriage, how can you be innocent?"
The third prince immediately took over the conversation, asking the Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Justice, "Lord Zhou, you are most familiar with Daxia’s laws. How should Xiao Yeyang be dealt with for his failure to protect the carriage?"
The Chief of Staff of the Ministry of Justice frowned, glanced at the still and silent Dragon Tent, then looked at the imposing princes, hesitated for a moment before saying, "He should be taken into custody for monitoring."
Xiao Yeyang looked towards the brothers of the Crown Prince, "Crown Prince, second prince, fifth prince, do you, like the third prince, think I am guilty and should be arrested?"
The three brothers of the Crown Prince remained silent.
At this moment, Prince Ping rushed over in a hurry, coming over and smacked the heads of the Crown Prince’s brothers ’pa, pa, pa.’
"You guys, have you lost your minds? Yeyang is your cousin, and yet you want to arrest him? You’re driving me mad."
Saying this, Prince Ping tried to slap towards the brothers of the Crown Prince again.
Duke Cheng’en stepped forward, "Prince Ping, Xiao Yeyang’s failure to protect the carriage is seen by all, no one is falsely accusing him. Could it be that just because he is your son, he is innocent?"
Saying this, he glanced at the third prince.
The third prince immediately shouted loudly, "Someone, arrest Xiao Yeyang."
Watching the soldiers who quickly surrounded the area, Prince Ping and the officials present all tensed up.
The soldiers arrived so promptly, it was clear that they had been prepared all along.
The brothers of the Crown Prince looked at the third prince, all deep in thought.
Xiao Yeyang scornfully swept a glance at those soldiers and indifferently looked at Duke Cheng’en and the third prince, "Even if I failed to protect the carriage, it should be my imperial uncle who punishes me, not your turn to judge me."
Duke Cheng’en huffed, "The Emperor is seriously injured, and to this day, we don’t even know if he has regained consciousness."
Just then, a voice emerged from the crowd. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
"Just now, I saw the Little Prince take two people into the Dragon Tent."
With this statement, everyone once again directed their gaze at Xiao Yeyang.
The Crown Prince asked with a furrowed brow, "Xiao Yeyang, who were those two people?"
The third prince interjected languidly, "Just now, an assassin entered the camp."
Upon hearing this, the faces of the brothers of the Crown Prince changed dramatically, "Xiao Yeyang, what exactly are you doing? Has the Emperor really not woken up? You’re stopping us from seeing our father, what are your intentions?"
At this moment, Daohua walked out of the tent, "The two people you mentioned, one is me, the other is my master. My master is a doctor, he came here to treat the Emperor, he is not the assassin you’re talking about."
Duke Cheng’en let out a cold laugh, "Countess of Shengping, you say he’s not the assassin and he’s not? Did you report your master’s entrance into the camp area to the officers responsible for security?"
The questioned officer shook his head, "No."
Duke Cheng’en smiled, "That means he entered privately. For entering the camp privately, regardless of the reason, one is to be treated as an assassin."
"First, Xiao Yeyang failed to protect the carriage, and now he arbitrarily allowed outsiders into the camp. Guards, arrest him."
The soldiers who had approached Xiao Yeyang earlier got closer again. This time, they all drew their swords.
Looking at the cold glint of the blade, Daohua tightly held Xiao Yeyang’s hand.
