Minister Lin is old, has a lot of experience, and is highly regarded by His Majesty. Once he stood up, the two people who had been arguing fiercely before had to give him some face.

Zhou Chen took a step back, raised his hand to straighten his clothes, and said to the man across Minister Lin: "You are old and your eyes are blurry, so you can't recognize the handwriting of His Majesty. It's understandable, but I am young and have good eyesight. There is no way I can mistake the handwriting of His Majesty."

The man had originally calmed down, but when he heard this, he immediately exploded with anger, pointing at Zhou Chen and cursing, "Zhou, who are you saying has blurred vision?"

Zhou Chen: "I will criticize anyone who doesn't recognize His Majesty's notes."

"You, you brat!" The man was so angry that he said something he didn't want to say. "You are so arrogant and domineering because of the trust of His Majesty. One day you will fall."

Zhou Chen said slowly: "Then wait until I fall down before you talk to me."

The man opened his mouth but couldn't find a word to say to Zhou Chen. He was so angry that his face turned pale and blue.

Minister Lin glanced at him and said leisurely, "You are already old, why bother with a junior? Besides, I have read the letter, and it is indeed written by His Majesty. If you don't believe him, do you not believe me either?"

The old man was already furious, and he was about to explode. After hearing what Minister Lin said, he became even more furious, and immediately launched an indiscriminate attack: "Mr. Lin, don't think I don't know that you are in cahoots with that Zhou Chen!"

"Your Majesty's safety is of great importance. You are an old minister, don't you understand? If something happens, you should find a way to solve it instead of hiding it from everyone. If you really miss the opportunity and something happens to His Majesty, how can you feel at ease? Don't forget that your precious daughter is the virtuous concubine in the harem. If something happens to His Majesty, your precious daughter will probably suffer as well."

As soon as these words came out, Minister Lin's expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

Everyone knew that he doted on his little daughter extremely. Now that this old man was bringing up his own daughter, it was simply like stabbing his heart with a needle.

Minister Lin was about to refute when he heard Mo Chengning, who had been sitting above him, suddenly shout, "How dare you!"

Although he was young, he had assisted Mo Xiao in governing the country for many days and had already accumulated a lot of prestige. In addition, he was now the crown prince. As soon as he opened his mouth, the faces of all the ministers under him changed. Even Minister Lin and Zhou Chen were startled. Everyone didn't have time to think about what happened. They instinctively knelt on the ground and shouted in unison: "Your Highness, calm down!"

Mo Chengning looked at the man who had just spoken with a cold face and said sternly: "Are you cursing my father with what you just said?"

The man's face turned pale instantly, and he fell to the ground with a thud: "Your Highness, I have no intention of cursing Your Majesty. Please understand clearly."

"I heard it all, and you still want to deny it?" Mo Chengning raised his finger and pointed at him, saying coldly, "My father fought for the country and the people at the border to fight the enemy. You are disloyal to the emperor and curse him instead. You are really going too far!"

The man's voice trembled: "Your Highness, I have no such intention. I..."

"Someone come here!" Mo Chengning shouted, "Take this disobedient person out!"

Before the man could explain, he was held down by the Royal Guards who rushed in, and was quickly dragged out with his mouth covered.

The entire Yinghua Palace was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
