The Southern Ridge Clan has rebelled, Chu Lingyang had just heard the news when he arrived.
He took a step forward and bowed deeply: "Regarding this matter, your servant cannot shirk the responsibility..."
"This matter, indeed, falls to Loyal Brother; however..."
The Emperor cast his eyes down, his long fingers again traced the rim of his cup: "Recently, there has been some unrest within the Imperial Palace, and tonight, there was even a thief who dared to poison me."
Poison!
It seems that the incident is indeed true!
Everyone's hearts trembled at once.
"Who is the audacious culprit who dared such a thing?" Chu Lingyang urgently asked, "Have they been caught?"
Thankfully, the Emperor looked unharmed at the moment, meaning that although the attempt to poison him did occur, the culprit did not succeed.
People had varying thoughts.
