The Emperor's heart is won, she sits on the Phoenix Throne! The Divine Physician's Eldest

Chapter 178 Searching for Evidence

The eunuch pointed at Grand Tutor Su, "It's him! It's Grand Tutor Su!"

The other two men, who appeared to be guards, also answered, "Grand Tutor Su instructed us to forge an imperial edict, and afterwards he even tried to kill us to silence us. It was Princess Ning'an who saved us."

"Your Majesty, spare our lives! We were forced into it. It was all Grand Tutor Su who ordered us to do it. We are innocent."

The three knelt before Emperor Changlong, weeping and begging for mercy.

Emperor Changlong was unaware beforehand of Su Taifu's false transmission of the imperial edict.

However, if Grand Tutor Su was capable of colluding with the enemy and betraying the country, it was not surprising that he could forge imperial edicts.

Emperor Changlong looked at Grand Tutor Su, "Grand Tutor, how do you intend to deny this?"

Su Taifu's tears had stopped. He vaguely felt that although Song Siyao's triumphant return today seemed like he wanted Song Siyao dead, in reality, it was Song Siyao who wanted his life.

He needed to calm down and focus all his efforts on dealing with Song Siyao.

“Your Majesty, Princess Ning’an is trying to frame me. She will stop at nothing to find a few people to falsely accuse me. It is easy for her. I have no way to defend myself. If Your Majesty does not believe me, I am willing to die to prove my innocence.”

Unable to explain, Grand Tutor Su began to resort to dishonest means.

He believed that as long as he didn't admit it, no one could do anything to him.

"Since the Grand Tutor insists, I will grant your wish." Emperor Changlong's voice was icy, indifferent, and ruthless.

A fleeting look of surprise crossed Su Taifu's face.

Emperor Changlong is also acting out of line. Shouldn't he be trying to dissuade him at this point? Why is he agreeing to let him die?

This put Grand Tutor Su in a difficult position, and he didn't know what to do.

In the instant that Su Taifu remained silent, Song Siyao's voice continued to ring out.

"At this hour, the Imperial Guards have already searched the Grand Tutor's residence from top to bottom. Grand Tutor Su, do you think you can still keep this a secret?"

Grand Tutor Su looked on incredulously, "You're talking nonsense! How could that be?"

He was ordered to bring Song Siyao into the palace, but while he was busy, Song Siyao instead ordered people to surround the Grand Tutor's residence.

Without Emperor Changlong's permission, Song Siyao would never dare to do such a thing.

Therefore, Emperor Changlong sent him away while instructing Song Siyao to deal with him.

Emperor Changlong had long since abandoned him!

What's even more frightening is that he knew nothing about it.

If the Imperial Guards really searched the Grand Tutor's residence from top to bottom, then the Grand Tutor's residence would truly be doomed.

"Grand Tutor, please wait a little longer. The results will be available soon." Song Siyao's voice was icy. "The Imperial Guards will expose all your shady dealings to the world, letting everyone see just how many dirty deeds the upright Grand Tutor Su of the Great Zhou has done behind the scenes!"

Su Taifu felt a chill run down his spine, and a strange panic gripped his heart. He had a feeling that he was about to be finished.

He forced himself to remain calm, making a final stand, "Song Siyao, don't frame me so easily. I have lived an upright life, and your few words cannot negate my contributions to the Great Zhou!"

"Grand Tutor, struggling is useless. Facts speak louder than words. Once all the evidence is laid out before you, your attempts to argue will be futile."

As Song Siyao finished speaking, a guard entered and reported, "Your Majesty, the search of the Grand Tutor's residence has been completed, and the items found are already outside the palace."

"Bring them in!" As Emperor Changlong's voice fell, more than a dozen guards carried the items in one by one.

When everyone's eyes fell on those things, they were immediately horrified.

That evidence was enough to destroy the Grand Tutor's mansion a hundred times over!
