Chapter: 799

Looking at Admiral Lim, Zhu Taikhan asked.

“Ha! Admiral Lim. I wonder what kind of tip made you create such a fuss in the palace?”

He wanted to know what this Tip was, he wanted to know why he was being considered as a criminal just because of some unverified tip.

Hearing his question, Admiral Lim laughed before speaking.

“Hohoho, don’t drag this out, Your Highness.”

“H-How dare you?”

“It seems that these rebels are from the Demonic Cult. They secretly entered the empire, hid themselves during the procession and infiltrated the Imperial palace. The East Spear warriors who discovered it last night tried to stop them, but sadly failed.”

One of the Guards who was standing behind Zhu Taikhan, flinched at the words of Admiral Lim.

Fortunately, Admiral Lim’s eyes were directly looking at Zhu Taikhan.

With displeasure, Zhu Taikhan asked angrily.

“Did they tell you that I brought them here? Are you trying to say that I, a prince, brought them here? Don’t you think you are letting your tongue wag a little too much? Can you take responsibility for your claims? Ha? ”

Expecting such a reaction, Admiral Lim’s lips formed into a mischievous smile.

“That is something I don’t know. The Emperor has asked for the truth behind this incident to be revealed and for the criminals to be arrested. If we continue our investigation, the truth will soon be unveiled. Ho ho ho.”

“Investigate? Ha! You want me, the prince...”

“Huh!”

Zhu Taikhan was about to express his displeasure, when the crown prince Zhu Taiyoon interrupted him by releasing his threatening energy.

“You bastard! You dare to mess with the Imperial Palace, but then act all confident in front of us! If you were involved with that group of rebels, your reputation should be the least of your worries!”

The last drop of mutual respect between the two princes had faded.

‘I am the future emperor!’

Zhu Taiyoon had never considered his step brother to be his equal.

He expected to one day see Zhu Taikhan kneeling with his head touching the ground before him.

It was shameful for Zhu Taiyoon to compete for the Emperor’s title with a later wife’s kid.

‘I will definitely not miss this opportunity!’

Everything had been prepared for this very moment.

Using this incident, Zhu Taiyoon had planned to drive out the Imperial Guards as they had never supported him.

It would be difficult to implicate the prince, Zhu Taikhan, but completely destroying the Emperor’s trust and hopes in him would be more than enough.

“Don’t act up anymore. Whether you are guilty or not will be revealed soon.”

Zhu Taikhan, who had remained quiet whilst his brother spoke, opened his mouth and spoke with cold eyes.

“To do this without any evidence...”

“Hahahaha, you think we weren’t given proper evidence?”
