Because of their silence, when Yuwen Xuhong pointed at Lin Yuelan and Jiang Zhennan and said that they were plotting rebellion, no one reacted too strongly.
However, as the eldest Grandprince only spoke and guessed without any real evidence, many people felt that there was something else hidden there.
Therefore, no one dared to chime in.
Yuwen Xuhong dared to say that it was because he was the emperor's eldest grandson and had offended Lin Yuelan. He had the protection of the emperor behind him, but they didn't have the protection of the emperor.
On the contrary, the person the Emperor was protecting was Lin Yuelan.
Therefore, no one dared to make a sound before the matter was clear.
As for Lord Wang, he stood in a corner, trembling with fear.
