Wei Jin eventually got out of the Imperial Study Room unscathed.
Liu Tong also exited unharmed for the time being, but he would face his judgment from the court officials soon.
The Emperor Yue didn't express anger today; he left the judgment to Bai Yanxi and also wanted to see the undercurrents in the court.
After leaving the Imperial Study Room, Liu Tong seemed as if his legs had been cut off, walking with a stoop and without any vitality.
When he reached the palace gate, he asked Wei Jin in a low voice, "Your Highness King Rui, since His Majesty did not rebuke us today, does it mean he believes our words?"
The sky had already darkened, Wei Jin's face was as gloomy as the sky without any light, his voice was the same, "I don't know, we'll find out in the court tomorrow."
Wei Jin waited all night, but did not receive a summons from Wei Jiuzhong.
