Under the "protection" of the Qingxia God, Zhou Heng's disguise was flawless.
Chen Xingjiang and the others did not spot any flaws at all and thus respectfully welcomed him as the true sixteenth prince into the County City yamen.
Afterwards, all the officials, including Lin He, withdrew, leaving only Zhou Heng and the maid transformed by the Qingxia God in the main hall, along with Chen Xingjiang kneeling on the ground with his head lowered, not daring to speak.
Zhou Heng did not speak, merely sitting there with an indifferent expression, while the Qingxia God was also cold and silent, not uttering a word.
It was as if the air itself had quieted down.
Chen Xingjiang knelt on the ground, cold sweat beginning to break out on his forehead.
The situation he feared most had nonetheless occurred.
If the sixteenth prince directly pointed out his faults, clarifying how he would be punished, even if the consequences were extremely severe, at least there would be a clear outcome.
