Disaster is Imminent

"As for all of you, I will investigate them one by one."

Thorian looked past An Rhys and looked at the ministers, sneering: "You must first make sure that you are clean and not be caught by me. If there is any tainted crime, I will punish you severely according to the law and will never let you off easily!"

When these words came out, everyone panicked instantly.

You looked at me, I looked at you, and for a moment we were at a loss, our hearts pounding like thunder.

After realizing that Thorian was angry, they all shut up wisely. It was An Rhys who was yelling crazily all the time, but they didn't expect that they would end up in trouble now.

Officials in this position are more or less bound to have some scandals. Most of the time, the prince turns a blind eye and does not bother with them.

Now, Thorian is obviously not playing by the rules.

Once the other party finds out their background, most of the people present will be ruined.

"Lord An Rhys! What should we do now? The young prince seems to be serious."

"Yes, Lord An Rhys! If they really investigate this, we will all be in trouble!"

"Lord An Rhys, we all followed you here, you can't let us get involved!"

"..."

Everyone gathered around An Rhys and talked a lot, feeling anxious.

The reason they came here this time was to respond to An Rhys' call. If they could help General Long Wei get rid of his crime, that would be the best thing to do.

This not only increases their visibility, but also helps them gain favors.

If they cannot escape punishment, they are unwilling to take risks and offend Thorian.

This is undoubtedly shooting oneself in the foot.

Obviously, the current situation is beyond their control.

If not handled properly, they will not have any consequences.

"Everyone is in their forties, why are you all so flustered?!"

The noisy sound in his ears made An Rhys very irritated.

My mood was already bad, and he was criticized for various things, which naturally made him even angrier.

"Lord An Rhys, you are in a high position with great power, so you are not panicking. But it's different for us. We are of low rank and if we make a mistake, we will lose everything. And you just heard that the young prince will punish us after investigating you. What should we do?"

Several ministers who had been agreeing with An Rhys before also began to complain.

If An Rhys hadn't considered himself noble and insisted on confronting the young prince head-on, how could the current situation have occurred?

To put it simply, they are the victims who were implicated.

"As a minister of remonstration, how can we be afraid of death?"

An Rhys had a righteous look on his face: "Our duty is to oppose all injustices! Oppose all hegemony! If we lose your composure and become timid because of being frightened by others, we might as well go home and farm!"

Hearing this, the faces of the ministers of remonstration turned very ugly.

What about opposing injustice and opposing hegemony? These are nothing but high-sounding words.

Everyone knows that An Rhys' visit this time was to use his power for personal gain.

On the surface, he pretends to be a loyal and righteous minister, but in fact he has a secret interest collusion with General Longwei.

If General Longwei falls, the other side will surely suffer heavy losses.

It was precisely because of their own interests that the other party gathered a group of people to put pressure on Thorian.

At the beginning, they just came here to support the situation with the mentality of doing a favor.

Who would have thought that An Rhys would totally disregard their lives and fight to the end with the young prince.

In the end, everyone will be strictly investigated.

In a sense, it was An Rhys who forced them into a desperate situation.

But the other party still doesn't repent and has no intention of saving the situation at all.

If they continue like this, they will all be doomed.

Thinking of this, the ministers began to think about how to survive.

It is definitely not possible to rely on An Rhys, so now they can only rely on themselves and see what method they can use to calm the little prince's anger?

Time is passing by little by little.

In the reception room, Thorian looked relaxed, sipping tea and eating snacks by himself.

The ministers of remonstration were placed under house arrest in the reception room and were extremely anxious.

As for An Rhys, although he looked very calm on the surface, he was actually very anxious.

If Thorian really found out something, how would he refute his own evidence?

"Your Highness! General Wang is back!"

At dusk, a guard suddenly came in to report.

When these words were spoken, all the ministers, including An Rhys, were nervous.

After all, whether or not Wang Mang could find evidence of his crime would determine their future fate.

"Let Wang Mang in."

Thorian put down the grapes in his hand and continued to sit as steady as a rock.

He was naturally well aware of the capabilities of the law enforcement team. Not to mention digging up An Rhys's past, they could at least find out a lot about him, which would be enough for him to cause trouble.

Two minutes later.

Wang Mang, along with several members of the law enforcement team, hurriedly walked into the reception room.

"How is it? Is it concluded?" Thorian asked calmly.

"My Lord, all the evidence has been collected, enough to bring someone to justice!"

After saying this, Wang Mang sneered at An Rhys.

An Rhys was so frightened that his eyelids twitched and his heart was beating fast. He felt like a disaster was about to happen. - Vivek
