CHAPTER 2234: CHAPTER 2234: PINNED ON HIS HEAD!

Only by capturing Sui Zimo and Lin Caisang can they force them to hand over the antidote!

He, who had always been accustomed to being a powerhouse, suddenly found his spiritual power vanished without a trace, and he really wasn’t used to this at all.

"This..."

The minister twitched the corner of his mouth upon hearing his question.

"What’s the matter, speak up!"

Seeing the minister hesitate, Yin Lvqing asked urgently.

"Eighth Prince, perhaps, you should continue to stay here for a few more days?" After thinking it over, the minister spoke to Yin Lvqing in a relatively relaxed tone.

"What?!"

Yin Lvqing simply could not believe what he had just heard.

Was this some kind of ludicrous fairy tale?

He was already in such a wretched state, without any spiritual power and completely unable to cultivate, and yet they still wanted him to stay in this godforsaken place?

"Is this the Emperor’s will?" he asked.

Of course, he knew very well that this was Emperor Ziyan’s will.

If not for his will, how could this minor official, who only oversaw the prison, possibly continue to detain him here?

But why?

Wasn’t his plight already dire enough? What was Emperor Ziyan’s heart made of, to treat him like this!

"Yes, yes, my lord, please forgive me, this is indeed the Emperor’s will."

The minister, fearing being implicated, hastily responded.

He muttered to himself: Did he dare to have any opinions regarding the Eighth Prince? If not for Emperor Ziyan’s will, he would have been more than happy to send Yin Lvqing away; keeping such a prominent figure in the prison, half his life would be at risk.

Moreover, Yin Lvqing was stripped of his spiritual power and beaten to spitting blood right under his watch.

He wondered if the Eighth Prince would attribute all this misery to him once he was released.

Just thinking about it terrified him immensely!

"Hiss, huff!"

Yin Lvqing took in a sharp breath, then exhaled heavily.

This outcome was completely different from what he had expected; even if Emperor Ziyan was ruthless, he was still Emperor Ziyan’s son.

Upon hearing the news of his spiritual power being stripped, not only did the Emperor not rage and seek out the perpetrator, but he was also actually letting him continue to stay in this prison, suffering hardships?

Why did it feel like there was something terribly wrong?

"During my time in prison, has anything happened outside?"

After some thought, he still felt something was amiss, so he asked the minister.

"Well... there hasn’t really been anything major." After thinking, the minister answered.

However, he had heard the news that Emperor Ziyan left the Feather Forest Guards in the imperial mausoleum, which he felt was a significant event.

"I have heard that today the Emperor went to the imperial mausoleum with all the Feather Forest Guards, and when he returned, he did not bring a single guard back with him. Does that count as a major event, my lord?"

He tentatively asked.

Upon hearing this, Yin Lvqing’s heart skipped a beat.

He silently cursed, realizing that something must have gone wrong in the imperial mausoleum.

And it definitely happened around the same time as his spiritual power being stripped.

So, did Emperor Ziyan think that he deliberately stripped himself of his spiritual power, seeking to distance himself from the destruction of the imperial mausoleum?

Thus, did Emperor Ziyan connect these two incidents, believing that he made a fool of him, playing games, which is why he allowed him to continue being held in the prison?

Or perhaps, Emperor Ziyan was not too angry originally.

But now, after this incident, did Emperor Ziyan completely blame the destruction of the imperial mausoleum on him!
