Chapter 4028: Night Light Died (2)
"His Majesty, Night Light is dead..." Lord Jing cried and sounded angry.
The king was anxious and angry. He shot a look at the eunuch beside him. The chief eunuch hurriedly bowed and said, "I'll go and investigate now!"
In less than five mintues, the eunuch returned. His face was pale, and he stumbled along the way, panting heavily!
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"
The eunuch knelt down in front of the Dongsang King and said mournfully, "Prince Night Light is dead. Prince Night Light... is dead..." "What did you say?!
The Dongsang King stared at his most trusted eunuch.
The chief eunuch nodded solemnly.
The king was shocked.
"What happened? Tell me the truth!"
The chief eunuch said the same thing as Lord Jing. The murderer he was talking about was Princess Yan Ling as well.
Princess Yan Ling was really arrogant.
She didn't hesitate to kill the prince and destroy the mansion. Moreover, she didn't hide after the killing. She stood in front of the burning mansion and watched. After that, she left.
What did that mean?
She was clearly extremely arrogant!
After hearing the eunuch's words, the Dongsang King clenched his fists, and the blue veins on his forehead throbbed.
There was dead silence all around.
Lord Jing knew that although the king was angry, he was still hesitating and weighing the pros and cons. In the end, he would probably make peace.
"But there's no witness..." said the Dongsang King.
Lord Jing stood up and said seriously, "When I got there, Princess Yan Ling had already left, but I still picked up a man from the well. He's the steward of Prince Night Light. He can testify for this matter."
The Dongsang King stared at Lord Jing coldly.
Lord Jing pretended not to understand. He lowered his head and looked very loyal.
The Dongsang King looked much older. He waved his hand and said, "Bring the witness up."
Night Light's chief steward was immediately brought up.
The Dongsang King narrowed his eyes dangerously and stared at him warningly. "Tell me what exactly happened!"
The chief steward prostrated and told the Dongsang King about Princess Yan Ling's attack on the mansion. In the end, he cried and said, "Princess Yan Ling and Prince Night Light were alone in the room. When we barged in, the prince was already on the ground, and Princess Yan Ling was standing with her hands behind her back. She admitted that she was the one who killed him. "It's not enough that she killed the prince. She even ordered Senior Ma to kill everyone in the residence.
"His Majesty, that was Prince Night Light!
"Why would she dare? Why would she..."
The chief steward cried uncontrollably. He felt like his head was going to
explode.
In his eyes, the royal family was an honorable and dignified existence. But now, Princess Yan Ling had humiliated the entire royal family, telling them that the Dongsang Kingdom was like an ant in her eyes. She could beat and kill anyone she wanted!
How humiliating was this...
The Dongsang King clenched his fists in anger, his knuckles turning white!
However, the old steward cried and added, "Your Majesty, is this still your Dongsang Kingdom? Is this still our Dongsang Kingdom? Are we really not the inferior slaves of the Dayan Empire? If they dare to treat our prince like this, then Your Majesty..."
"Shut up!" Before the Dongsang King could speak, the eunuch beside him kicked the old steward and sent him flying.
"Please calm down, Your Majesty..." The chief eunuch knelt down and asked for forgiveness..
