When Prince of Wutong saw the two beauties, he had a sudden realization that he had been manipulated.
All the stories about the raid on the grain ship and the bandits were lies concocted by the Princess Consort.
She tricked him into coming here to Lingshan Temple to arrest the conniving monk.
The place was filled with imperial soldiers and servitude, under the watchful eyes of everyone, making it impossible to back off.
The Prince of Wutong wanted to shield Master Jieming, but it was already impossible now.
At this point, he could only play along with the plot, save the two beauties, arrest Master Jieming and the other monks in the heat of the blistering criticism from the Imperial Censor-in-chief, Huang Ren, and then send them all to the Emperor, awaiting their fate.
Huang Ren was excited.
He finally saw his opportunity to go down in history.
As for the Prince of Wutong, he felt that misfortune had befallen him.
