No wonder the emperor specially asked Bart to come when he summoned him. No wonder Bart looked at him with such disdain. It turned out...it turned out that he had already shown his feet.

Wilke panicked in his heart, but forced himself to calm down. He gritted his teeth secretly, "Father, what does this mean?"

"You still have the face to ask me, don't you know what you did?"

The emperor snorted coldly. In the past, he thought that Wilke was a little introverted because of the early death of his parents, but he was still pure and kind. Poison.

Wilke looked terrified, and knelt down on the hard, cold ground without hesitation with a 'plop', with a sad expression, "Father, I have never done such a thing, the cake is indeed given to my third brother Yes, but Erchen really doesn't know anything!"

The emperor looked at him with a cold face, silently, without speaking.

Wilke gritted his teeth, knelt on the ground and moved a few steps forward, stopping at the emperor's feet, his expression hurt, as if he had been greatly wronged, "This cake didn't just pass through the hands of one person, other people touched it. The person who made this cake is also suspected, father, how can you doubt your son just because of a report?"

Seeing his attitude, Benia on the side knew that he was shifting the responsibility to Chef Allen, who made the cake. Benia had an undisguised disgust on her face, and only heard her sneer.

He said bitterly: "Don't quibble, Chef Allen is an old man in the palace, and he has lived peacefully for so many years, how could he do such a thing, not to mention that he didn't have to do it at all!"

Before Wilke could refute, Benia continued to sneer: "The ingredients in the palace have been specially reviewed, and every chef has to go through a full-body inspection when entering the kitchen, and it is impossible to bring them in privately. This kind of thing, who else could it be if not you?"

It's not that Wilker didn't think of the consequences of exposure, but he was too conceited and didn't think he might be exposed. He thought that he had control over Shelley to the point of being infallible, and Shelley would never go against him.

Until now, Wilke has not figured out which link went wrong. He doesn't think that Shelley didn't eat the cake he sent, even though he waited for several days without hearing the news of Shelley's death. , but he only thought it was the reason why the toxicity had not yet occurred.

"Father, I don't know, how could I do such a crazy thing? If you still don't believe it, you can ask the third brother, the relationship between the son and the third brother is the best, the third emperor Brother, please explain to Father Huang quickly!"

Welk burst into tears, and after speaking, he still did not forget to look at Shelley who was hiding behind Cecien. In the eyes of outsiders, Wilke looked humble, with begging eyes, and looked innocent and hurt, which made some people present feel uncomfortable. Knowing whether to believe his words or not, they all wondered if there was something hidden in it.

But Jiang Chuanxue clearly saw the faint warning in Wilke's eyes. If it was the real Shelley, she would have been trembling with fright at this moment.

Wilke's words successfully attracted everyone's attention to Jiang Chuanxue, but unfortunately Jiang Chuanxue is not Shelley, so he will not make Wilke happy.

"Ugh..."

Everyone's gazes were like sharp knives on the young man's neck, as if they would threaten his life at any moment, which made him feel terrified. The young man's eye sockets were filled with mist at the moment, and his slender eye feathers blinked mistyly with tears. Trembling and stunned, he couldn't say a word.

Sensing the boy's uneasiness, Saixien put his arms around the boy's shoulders, and comforted him softly: "Don't be afraid, with my brother here, no one will dare to bully you anymore."

Everyone knew about Shelley's condition. Since he smashed his head two years ago, he had become this cowardly and ignorant appearance. When he was frightened, he would be as helpless as he is now.

This made everyone wonder whether Wilk had done something to make the boy so scared.

The boy's hesitation and cowardice made Wilke's anxious heart even more impatient, and he said eagerly, "Third brother, have you forgotten that second brother often goes to your room to play with you? Two Brother still prepares surprises for you from time to time, so you can explain to the second brother and father, and the second brother promises to prepare better gifts for you."

If people who don't know the truth listen to Wilke's eloquent words, they may think that he is really a good second brother as he said.

The surprise is actually the torture and torture that was used on Shelley, and those gifts are like tranquilizers used to soothe Shelley's injured heart and prevent him from showing his flaws in front of outsiders.

Jiang Chuanxue even suspected that Shelley suffered from Stockholm Syndrome after facing Wilker's long-term torture, so it took so long for outsiders to notice his fear of Wilker.

Since there is no mention in the system information that Shelley suffers from Stockholm Syndrome, Jiang Chuanxue doesn't have to play the role of a Stockholm Syndrome patient so seriously. He can properly reveal some flaws and let outsiders perceive his fear of Wilker.

After hearing Wilker's words, everyone began to waver again, wondering whether they should believe Wilker or not.

It's just that after hearing Wilk's words, instead of being appeased and explaining, the boy became even more panicked, curled up in Saixien's arms, and began to cry softly.

Saixien's face was gloomy, and he, who was always gentle, couldn't help showing a bit of tyranny, which made everyone present terrified.

Although the young man never said a word, his frightened appearance at the moment already explained everything. Wilke must have done something to hurt him to make him so frightened.

The emperor also seemed to realize that it wasn't as simple as Wilke sending a poisoned cake. He looked cold and asked the boy in a solemn tone.

"Whether Wilke did something to you, say it, and the emperor will decide for you."

The young man remained silent after hearing these words, and did not receive any comfort. The tears he shed had already stained Saixien's skirt, and he looked at the emperor without the slightest trust.

Seeing the distrustful eyes of his beloved youngest son looking at him, the old emperor's heart ached, and he didn't dare to say anything to provoke him.

"Come on, lock him up for me, and don't release him until the truth is found out." The old emperor's tone was a little tired.

After all, Wilk was still the prince. Although the emperor did not specify where he was to be locked up, the person who detained Wilk still locked him in his own bedroom first.

Although he was very unwilling, it was better to be imprisoned temporarily than to be executed immediately. What Wilker was puzzled at the moment was why Shelley didn't act according to his wishes this time?

What Wilke never imagined was that Shelley's body had already been replaced by a soul.
