A single word "slow" made Prince Cheng's heart sink.
Although he was not afraid of Emperor Hongxiao in his heart, he could not refute Emperor Hongxiao's opinion in the face of all the civil and military officials. And clearly, Emperor Hongxiao now seemed to favor Jiang Li. Although he knew that Emperor Hongxiao wanted to implicate Princess Yongning with the case involving the Xue Family, at the moment, Jiang Li's statements were indeed convincing.
Mixing reason with sentiment, to exonerate Xue Huaiyuan, where "reason" was insufficient, "sentiment" supplimented, Jiang Li employed such an irresistible tactic, step by step washing away the injustice from Xue Huaiyuan.
The ministers who had understood what was happening looked at Jiang Li with unusual eyes, such a court debate was truly breathtaking to witness.
