บท 1614: Never Afraid of Death

"Really?" Shi Yuan was delighted.

Empress Tuoba nodded.

Shi Yuan then ordered the Prime Minister's wife to be summoned to the royal study.

When the Prime Minister's wife came to the royal study, she was carrying a tray with some books and documents on it. Behind her were two eunuchs carrying a medium-sized wooden box.

As soon as she entered, the Prime Minister's wife knelt on the ground and cried, "Your Majesty, I plead for my husband, Dou Chen. Although Dou Chen made an unforgivable mistake, his crime does not warrant death. I hope Your Majesty will look into this matter. There is evidence in this case."

"Bring it over." Shi Yuan hurriedly said.

"Yes." The head eunuch agreed and took the tray over. He placed it on the table so that Shi Yuan could read it.
