After the Emperor heard this, he snorted coldly and said, “It looks like the Su family is holding back information toward my fourth son. Arrest him.”

“Yes.” Xiao Heng responded and turned to leave.

At night, Seventh Su was arrested by Xiao Heng and the others on his way home from King Kang’s Residence. He was secretly brought into the imperial prison for interrogation.

Faced with the evidence, especially the matter of assassinating and replacing the court officials, Seventh Su did not know how to answer.

There was no doubt that he wanted to live, but once he admitted to these things, he, a commoner without any official position, would definitely die.

However, he could only push it to King Kang if he wanted to refute these claims. If that happened, King Kang would completely lose the possibility of ascending the throne.

The Su family, King Kang, and Consort Shu might fall out then. At that time, both sides would definitely suffer.

Especially when he and his father had helped the mother and son commit so many crimes. Once they were exposed, there would only be one way out.

Therefore, he had no other choice.

“Yes means yes, and no means no. Your expressions are making me wonder if you have an accomplice or…” When Xiao Heng was halfway through his sentence, Seventh Su raised his head and replied, “Don’t try to exaggerate these claims. I did it, but I learned it from King Hui.

“He’s living a good life in the Imperial Residence now. Why did you only capture me?

“Could it be that the Emperor lets him go just because he’s his son?”

“I have no right to answer on this; the Emperor has his own concerns.

“However, you, a commoner, murdered four officials of the Imperial Court and replaced them. This is a great crime worthy of beheading. Even if you continue to cling to King Hui, you will still be unable to escape death.”

“This isn’t fair.”

“Didn’t Mother God say that the heaven’s net has long arms? I think it’s very fair.” Xiao Heng retorted.

When Seventh Su heard the word ‘Mother God’, he could not help but remember the lightning strike that had skinned him and shattered his bones. He shivered in fright.

Xiao Heng was surprised to see him shivering. After understanding what he was afraid of, he immediately thought of King Hui, who was struck even more seriously than him. He smiled and asked, “Fair enough, right?

“However, the punishment for the mastermind and the accomplice is different.”

Seventh Su looked up at him and asked, “Why does it sound like Captain Xiao wants to find a scapegoat for me?”

“I’m not that bored.”

“Then there’s nothing more to say. Your investigation was very detailed and comprehensive.

“I did it. I just have too much money to spend.”

“Then sign it.” Xiao Heng heard that and placed a confession in front of him.

Seventh Su took it and read it carefully. After ensuring Xiao Heng didn’t make up a false accusation, he quickly signed it with his fingerprint.

“Escort him into the palace to await his punishment.” Xiao Heng ordered and directly took the confession to the Emperor.

The Emperor then realized Seventh Su had taken over most of the Gu family’s businesses, with more abundant assets than the national treasury.

He told Xiao Heng, “I’ll need you to do one last spurt. Take all of Seventh Su’s assets in the capital to the national treasury personally.”

“Yes.” Xiao Heng responded and turned to leave.

After he left, the Emperor leaned back on the dragon throne with a tired face.

At the same time, he deeply understood the meaning of being alone.

He really had no one to talk to.

Everyone might even be scheming for his life.

On the other end, Zhou Ying finally received news from the East Continent through her interspace.

Unfortunately, that official was unable to convince their king in the end. But, he was willing to give it a try himself..
