Ling Yan’s reputation in the court instantly grew .
The Eldest Prince’s, Second Princess’s, and the Eldest Princess’s expressions were utterly ugly .
The border officials and disaster victims they had brought aroused the ministers’ suspicions instead, and they were taken away for questioning .
After all, the receipts that Ling Yan had signed were present, causing their version of events to be viewed suspiciously .
When they saw this, the Eldest Prince’s and Second Princess’s hearts thumped wildly . Fortunately, they had neither made a personal appearance nor revealed their identity when contacting these people . Even if these people revealed who had instructed them, it could not be traced back to the Eldest Prince and Second Princess .
After the court dismissed, the Eldest Prince and the others returned to his residence . The three siblings had ugly expressions, completely unlike their expressions when they had left the residence earlier .
“We were defeated by Ling Yan today!” The Second Princess sat down, her face filled with frustration .
“I did not expect what we did today would help Ling Yan instead . He not only resolved all the accusations, but he even seized the opportunity to gain everyone’s approval . We have really made a huge loss today . ” The Eldest Prince’s face was ashen . He had been confident of victory, but to their surprise, they had lost the entire round .
Ling Yan’s move had been so excellent that they were unable to guard against it .
“Ling Yan even accused the Mo Family as well . That was really unexpected . Doesn’t he know that the Mo Family is his greatest source of support?” The Eldest Princess’s brows were deeply furrowed . She was perplexed by Ling Yan’s accusation of the Mo Family .
One must know that the Mo Family had always supported Ling Yan . Although the Mo Family could not compare to the Sacred Ground of Reflection or the Temple of Shadows, it held the military power in the Eternal Dynasty .
It wielded great influence in the imperial court, and that was one of the reasons they had not been able to get at Ling Yan so far .
But today, Ling Yan had actually accused the Mo Family without batting an eye .
After today, the Mo Family would soon fall from power .
This could not be good news for Ling Yan .
“Our move was lacking…” The Eldest Prince sighed, then lifted his eyes, and glanced at Ye Qingtang .
“Elder Ye, we were not properly prepared today and wasted your scheme . ”
They thought that Ye Qingtang’s plan was sure to work, but they had miscalculated Ling Yan’s movements and wasted the opportunity .
“It doesn’t matter . ” Ye Qingtang spoke casually, but she could not help but inwardly roll her eyes .
Not properly prepared?
What she saw today gave her an inkling of how this would play out .
With the Eldest Prince and the others’ little talent, the outcome would probably be the same even if they prepared for decades .
They were no match for Ling Yan .
When Lady Ghost, who was standing nearby, heard what had happened, amusement lurked around the corners of her mouth . Her gaze seemed to accidentally fall on Ye Qingtang .
“After today, Ling Yan’s foundation will be even more stable . It won’t be easy for us to touch him . ” The Eldest Prince’s face was gloomy .
But the Eldest Princess said, “In that case… can we drag Ling Yan into the Mo Family’s trouble?”
The Eldest Prince had a thought and involuntarily glanced at Ye Qingtang, as he thought of asking her for help .
Why was he looking at her?
Ye Qingtang was speechless, but with Lady Ghost at her side, she had no choice but to say,
“No . ”
“Why?” The Eldest Princess could not understand .
Ye Qingtang really wanted to tell the Eldest Princess it was because they were too stupid, but could only say, “Ling Yan personally and publicly accused the Mo Family . ”
