"Okay, just tell me everything that you know and how you find it out." Mark was so tensed at the moment that he was even considering killing her to protect his secrets.


    At the same time, he was also impressed by her analytical skills. For a moment, he even thought she could help him devise a n to dethrone Shang Fu more effectively. Should he marry her?


    But, he doesn''t want to act on impulse when there is nothing for him to gain from either of the options.


    Hence, he decided to treat this matter carefully without messing up because of some impulse.


    As Mark asked the princess to continue with her analysis, she spoke, "well, let''s start with the identification of your aides.


    Song Yun was arrested after his assassination n failed and then he was charged with a series of crimes one after another, which sentenced him to 213 years of imprisonment.


    Now, let''s look at the charges. First, embezzlement. He was sentenced to 35 years of imprisonment and he deserved that for sure but where did the Emperor suddenly acquire the evidence, the ledger book?


    Obviously, the Song n handed it to him. Emperor Shang didn''t have any grudges against Song Yun and neither is he a scheming type. Hence, he wouldn''t have investigated behind Song Yun.


    Secondly, domestic violence. It is actually a joke that Song Yun was charged with that crime when all he did was lock up his wife and restrict his daughter''s freedom for a while.


    Then, Why did it happen?


    It''s because domestic violence ismon not only in the noble houses but also in the houses of themoners. On a daily basis, hundreds of husbands beat their poor wives, and hundreds of wives would abuse their elderly inws who live with them.


    But, does anyone cares about that? Neither the society cares nor the officials.


    If we arrest everyone who participated in domestic violence, the jails won''t be sufficient.


    Thirdly, attempted murders of kin and stranger. No argument about that but Song Yun was indeed given the maximum sentence.


    Fourthly, the act of terrorism. In this situation, Song Yun is indeed a criminal for colluding with the top members of the organization, which is banned from the Phoenix Empire.


    However, based on Emperor''s rtionship with Song Yun, if thetter apologizes earnestly, Emperor Shang should have actually forgiven him. After all, Song Yun''s reasoning was just to get his daughter back and kill his enemy, not harm the innocent citizens.


    And finally, lying to the emperor. Indeed, deceiving the ruler of thend is the biggest sin that a citizen canmit but one should also look at the consequences resulting from that lie. It''s just mostly a white lie if you ask my opinion. For that, 98 years of imprisonment is too much.


    My point is that Song Yun was not only betrayed by his nsmen but also by the Emperor, who is supposedly a friend.


    That leaves me with the question. Why did Emperor Shang go so hard on his friend? What do you think, Lu Zhen?"


    Mark never tried to think about Song Yun''s punishment. At first, he thought that Song Yun got what he deserved. Later, when Song Yun became the ck Knight, Mark no longer cared.


    Now that Shen Ling reminded him of all of this, he couldn''t help but wonder. This happened before the expo and the emperor has no idea aboutbat aircraft or howitzers.


    He said unsurely, "Maybe, Emperor Shang''s rtionship might be turning sour with Song Yun, or maybe, he thinks that I''m a valuable asset?"


    "Could be," nodded the princess before she crossed her arms to the chest and said, "However, I think that it will make more sense if he already knows that you are his son."


    "No, that''s impossible." Mark refuted her statement right away. He furrowed his brows as he exined, "From our past meetings until now, I''m sure that he only saw me as a weapon seller. I believe that it might be because of my actions against 8-circle realm experts and also because of the legendary realm beast king that I had formed a spirit contract with."


    Shen Ling wasn''t surprised and calmly nodded as if she knew that he will react like this. She said, "Well, let''s just say that is true. I won''t argue with that. Now, let''s get back to the topic, Song Yun.


    Why did he escape or rather how did he even escape in the first ce when his ether energy, as well as his strength, is sealed? Not to mention, knocking out all the guards that are on the way.


    Adding on top of that, this happened right in the middle of the night, six hours after you met with him.


    You saved my father, who is in a worse state. I''m sure that you can remove whatever seal is ced on Song Yun.


    And ten dayster, a peak-six-circle realm expert visits your store and bes Song Yue''s bodyguard. Your store literally can suppress the strength of any Spirit Warrior; you have a legendary realm beast king and two powerful servants on your side. Why would Song Yue even need such protection?


    What''s more… He doesn''t even talk. He uses ether writing method. Combine all the events and it will make sense that Song Yun is the one behind the armor.


    As for Wu Weibao, I heard that he visited the campsite along with you but in the real battle, some of the soldiers imed that they took a glimpse at a scarlet leopard with five tails.


    I know for a fact that it is Zheng. So, the beast emperor is on the battlefield but the supposedly Supreme realm expert, Wu Weibao, wasn''t seen anywhere else? Why?


    Obviously, he is in his original form. But why did the Zheng beast even bother to leave his mountain to help you? Obviously, it is because you are the grandson of Lan Gengxin and awakened the bloodline of Blizzard Pegasus.


    You are the perfect candidate to revive the sect."


    Mark doesn''t know what to say now. Since all of these are found out by the princess, why leave out the remaining ones? He asked her to continue exining his revenge.
