Chapter 1367: Revealing the Edge
Translator: Lonelytree
Although it was a simple sentence, it was sharp and imposing.
Everyone understood what he meant.
He was the one who saw the high priest put the rock into the water.
Immediately, many people stared at the High Priest suspiciously.
Although the High Priest was being pressured by Lin Yuelan, the crowd’s comments gave him some time to calm down.
Therefore, even if Jiang Zhennan came out to prove himself and caused everyone to have doubts because of Jiang Zhennan’s words, he could quickly refute them.
The High Priest sneered and said,” Hehe, the Great General is the Princess’ fiancé. Of course, you have to protect your own woman!”
He was questioning Jiang Zhennan for making false testimony!
They thought that Jiang Zhennan would defend himself, but everyone only saw that Jiang Zhennan only gave the High Priest a cold look and did not bother to explain at all.
“I saw it too!” At this moment, the second prince of the Black Clouds Kingdom, who had been drinking silently, suddenly said this. In an instant, many people present were surprised.
Princess Linglong had been forced into such a humiliating situation by Princess Gu, but this prince had not said a word. Moreover, when he did, he only coldly asked Princess Linglong to apologize to Princess Gu. This made people think that this second prince had a grudge against Princess Linglong.
Now that he had suddenly spoken, everyone confirmed that the Second Prince had a grudge against Princess Linglong.
This was because Princess Linglong was clearly targeting Princess Gu, but now he was helping Princess Linglongs enemy, Princess Gu.
The crowd was not surprised for long before the Third Prince of the Black
Dragon Kingdom, Xiao Hetian, said,” I saw it too.” Then, he pointed at the High Priest and said,” He took out a rock from his sleeve and quickly put it into the clear water!”
The Third Prince of the Black Dragon Kingdom had made himself clear.
The three big shots had already proved that the high priest had indeed cheated by making the water burn. Soon after, there were people who proved that the high priest had indeed put the rock into the water.
As more and more people came forward to prove themselves, Liang Renhui’s expression slowly turned from arrogance to panic. His face also turned from an ashen green when he was angry to a pale white and finally to a gray color of defeat.
If it was only Jiang Zhennan or someone from the Longyan Kingdom who stood up to prove it, he could certainly refute it with confidence.
Saying that they were just protecting Lin Yuelan.
But now, apart from the people from the Longyan Dynasty, the leaders of the diplomatic missions from the Black Clouds Kingdom, Dark Dragon Kingdom, and the Shui Zhou Kingdom had also come forward to testify. Therefore, he could not refute them at all.
At this moment, the First Prince of Aduo Chai Kingdom stood up and retorted,” I don’t believe that the High Priest is a cheater. You must be biased towards the Princess and made a false testimony!’
When Liang Renhui heard this, he had an expression that he had never seen before. He was very grateful for the First Prince’s stupidity.
At this moment, he would still trust him.
Then, the defeated look on his face gradually turned back to normal. Just as he was about to explain that he did not use the stone, he heard the first prince’s words, and his expression changed instantly.
The First Prince said heroically,” Hmph, all of you said that my High Priest used the rock to make the water start a fire. The rock that you saw in his hand could also be the rock that the Guguo Princess had placed in the High Priest’s hand. There’s no way it could not be! Therefore, unless you can produce other evidence, it is impossible for me to believe that our High Priest is a swindler!”
Once the First Prince finished speaking, Lin Yuelan turned to the First Prince of Aduo Chai Kingdom and said,” First Prince, what if I can use some means to prove it? However, I hope that this proof will not affect the diplomatic relations between the two countries!”
The First Prince shook his head and said,” Absolutely not! “Then, he said,” But I don’t want the High Priest to be hurt!”
“Please rest assured, First Prince!”
Lin Yuelan nodded at Jiang Zhennan after she finished speaking.
Everyone present saw the interaction between the two.
However, at the same time, they were also extremely puzzled.
How could this Guguo princess prove that Aduo Chai r s high priest did not use a spell but had indeed cheated?
