"What?" Madam Feng was shocked. "Who is it? Your Majesty, my daughter has always been well-behaved and would never do such a shameful thing! Someone must be framing her."

She turned to Jiang Xue with an angry look, "My daughter once told me that Princess Changle was not friendly to her when she was in Prince Gong's Mansion. Maybe this is also her conspiracy. Please don't blame my innocent daughter and let the real criminal go."

Jiang Xue sneered when she heard this: "Follow the rules? It's really ironic to use these four words here."

If Concubine Feng can be called a rule-abiding person, then there may be no more rules in the world.

"Madam Feng, please stop talking nonsense. Concubine Feng has personally admitted that she had an affair with the Crown Prince of Xiyong, and we are all witnesses."

Jiang Xue retorted, "Besides, you said that you raised her yourself, so it seems that your education level is also worrying. The daughter you raised is full of calculations, but not much real talent. I guess there are constant internal struggles in the Feng family, and Madam is experienced, right?"

Mrs. Feng was speechless for a moment. She had known that the princess was eloquent, but she had not expected her to be so powerful, which caught her off guard.

"By the way, Madam Feng, your daughter is the mastermind behind the murder of my master. For the royal family, this is a very serious crime. As someone who comes from a wealthy family, you should know this very well." Jiang Xue added.

Madam Feng was shocked. She turned her gaze from Jiang Xue to Xiao Zhan, and then to the faces of the other nobles. She saw that they all looked embarrassed, and it was obvious that what he said was true.

Looking at Concubine Feng in disbelief, Mrs. Feng loosened her hand and staggered back a few steps.

Rebellion against the royal family is a serious crime that will implicate the entire family!

"Mother..." Upon seeing this, Concubine Feng felt a chill in her heart.

"It's getting late. Since the truth is out, the trial process at the Dali Temple can be avoided. Concubine Feng not only had an affair with a foreign man, but also attempted to murder the royal family. Both crimes should be punished together.

From today on, she will be stripped of her position as a concubine and demoted to a criminal; the Feng family will be punished for not disciplining their children properly, and their titles will be stripped, reducing them to commoners. As for the Sun family..."

Xiao Zhan looked at Madam Feng coldly, which frightened her.

"The Sun family was also stripped of their titles, and all of their officials were demoted to the third rank."

Hearing this, Mrs. Feng collapsed to the ground, looking ahead with empty eyes, as if she had lost all hope.

The title of nobility symbolizes prestige and glory. Once the title is lost, the so-called nobility becomes meaningless, becoming a mere appearance with an empty heart, and no one will look at them in the eye.

Mrs. Feng couldn't imagine how difficult the future would be for the Sun family. She had been bathed in the glory of her family since she was a child, and now that she had lost this glory, she didn't know if she could survive.

"Have the scars on Emperor Beiling's face healed? He took off the mask so quickly. His recovery speed is really amazing." Chu Feimo said half-jokingly as he looked at Xiao Zhan's face.

Chu Feimo didn't seem to worry about causing dissatisfaction among other nobles after he belittled two nobles in one breath. He witnessed the whole process and was deeply impressed by Xiao Zhan, who was so strong that he made people feel intimidated.

"Prince Xiyong, shouldn't you give me an explanation?" As he spoke, Xiao Zhan took a step forward, cleverly blocking the other party's gaze from Jiang Xue.

"What do you mean by 'explain'? I can't seem to remember clearly. Perhaps it's because I've been lying in bed for too long recently, so my memory is a little fuzzy."

"Bed-ridden?" All the nobles present exchanged glances, full of confusion. What exactly did the Prince of Xiyong want to say? Hasn't the emperor been in high spirits recently?

"Prince Xiyong, you are a smart man and you understand what I mean. Out of respect for your status and consideration for the friendship between our two countries, I did not point it out directly.

You came to Beiling only to seek support to help you regain the throne. It is not a wise move to anger me now."

Although Xiao Zhan's words were implicit, his intention was very clear - he didn't want anyone to mention the matter of Xiao Yun handling state affairs on his behalf.

"If the Emperor Beiling wants me to act according to your wishes, then you have to give me some benefits. No one is willing to do business at a loss." Chu Feimo's eyes inadvertently fell on the beautiful figure behind Xiao Zhan.

"Oh, benefits? Didn't Concubine Feng give you the benefits that Prince Xiyong enjoyed in my Beiling?" Xiao Zhan sneered in response, "It just so happens that Concubine Feng is no longer a member of the royal family. Since His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has obtained her body, he should take responsibility.

Since she is yours, you can take her back to Xiyong. Whether to keep her as a slave is entirely up to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"You want me to bring a criminal girl back to the country?" Chu Feimo's handsome face turned ugly in an instant.

Is this the extent of Emperor Beiling's sincerity?

"Sincerity?" Jiang Xue chuckled. "Your Highness, you had an affair with a concubine in the harem, and the emperor was magnanimous in not punishing you. Now you dare to mention sincerity? Xiyong country has done something unjust first, how can you have the face to talk about sincerity?"

Chu Feimo responded innocently: "I have no impression of this woman. I have never seen her, and I don't understand why she insisted that she had a relationship with me."

Anyway, no one knew about what happened between him and Concubine Feng, so Chu Feimo decided to deny it to the end. As long as he insisted on not admitting it, Xiao Zhan and the others would be helpless.

When Concubine Feng heard this, her heart was broken and she could hardly control the pain.

A wave of anger spread in her heart, and when she looked at Chu Feimo again, only twisted hatred remained in her eyes. Love to the extreme turns into hatred, that's it.

"You are such a heartless person." Concubine Feng screamed and stood up from the ground, rushing towards Chu Feimo like a madman, with her hair flying, looking even crazier. The guards easily stopped her, and Chu Feimo's disgust for her deepened.

"I treat you with all my heart, but you treat me like this." Concubine Feng screamed and struggled to break free from the restraints, but her strength was not enough to fight the guards.

"We have spent many wonderful nights together, but now you deny it." At this moment, Concubine Feng was desperate, and her heart was filled with resentment after being abandoned.

Today, she wants everyone to know that she is Chu Feimo's woman, and her words are not lies.

"Alas, there are always women trying to get close to me, claiming that they have had physical intimacy with me. Do I have to admit every one of them?" Chu Feimo was obviously a little annoyed and regretted getting into such trouble.

At this time, Jiang Xue interrupted and said, "Madam Feng, do you have any evidence to prove that you did have close contact with the Crown Prince of Xiyong?"

Just as Jiang Xue expected, Concubine Feng became excited upon hearing this: "Of course! He has a mole under his chest and a scar on the inside of his thigh."

The whole audience was shocked. The mole under the chest might be seen inadvertently when changing clothes, but the scar on the inner thigh is very hidden. How did Concubine Feng know about it?

The answer was obvious, something had indeed happened between the two of them. In this way, Chu Feimo's previous denial became a laughing stock.

At this time, Chu Feimo's face turned pale and the air around him seemed to have turned cold.
