The Divine Dao Alchemy Emperor

Chapter 1071

The war ended, and after everyone returned to the Imperial Capital, Zhao Lun immediately handed the charges to the War Ministry, reporting on Ling Han's defection actions during the war.

Zhao Lun was the Deputy Commander of the troops, so the indictment he gave was naturally taken seriously by the War Ministry, let alone when Zhao Lun was also the only son of Great General Zhao. His status was extremely noble, so no one dared to treat this as a small matter.

Therefore, a large-scale investigation was immediately launched.

The situation is quite suspicious.

Ling Han may be very genius — this is a publicly acknowledged fact. However, no matter how much of your genius is, your actual cultivation level is there to be seen. You are only at the peak stage of the intermediate extreme, and even if you could exceed five stars in actual combat, it would only be a decent battle prowess at the initial stage of the perfect level.

There were so many students in the middle stage, late stage, and peak stage of the perfect level, and they had all been captured. How could only he have managed to escape?

After the end of the war, the captured students were naturally released. Some of them swore that they had seen with their own eyes that Ling Han had been summoned for interrogation by the enemy soldiers, after which he was no longer imprisoned along with them.

There are witnesses too.

"False charges, these are false accusations!" After Shui Yanyu heard it, he was naturally very angry.

He knew some of Ling Han's secrets. With the Black Tower, how could Ling Han be captured? Furthermore, Ling Han had discovered the Eternity Sky Majestic Empire's conspiracy, allowing the empress to move personally.

It showed just how important the information Ling Han brought was!

Ling Han was a subject who had performed an outstanding service for the empire, yet Zhao Lun was currently using his public office to exact personal revenge. He had also collaborated with others to frame Ling Han. This is truly a vile, shameless to extreme character style!

Ling Han chuckled, and said, “I've snatched his favorite, so he used a cheating way to get back at me. The more shameless and despicable it meant, the more it showed how much he was injured! ”

Shui Yanyu rolled his eyes at her, and asked, "You're actually not the least bit worried?"

Zhao Lun now increased support for her campaign, building public opinion that Ling Han was a traitor to the empire. Once everyone believed Ling Han was a traitor, then whatever the truth was, it no longer mattered. At that time, was the Shui Clan still willing to marry off their daughter to Ling Han?

Ling Han smiled, and said, “If worrying is useful, then I will worry. Who asked me to be isolated and without help? "

"You can ask the Ninth King for help!" Shui Yanyu called immediately.

Ling Han shook his head. Empress Luan Xing had already expressed displeasure over the relationship between her and Hu Feiyun. If he went to ask the Ninth King for help at this moment, he was afraid that the empress would really do something to him.

"Don't" he said. “Zhao Lun is just a clown doing his antics. As long as one person spoke, then no matter how many of these people jumped all over the place, it would be useless. ”

"His Majesty the Emperor, empress?" Shui Yanyu reacted.

"My wife is really smart!"

If Empress Luan Xing was willing to speak up, then with her absolute authority, she was naturally able to resolve the matter. But the problem here was that he only involved a small ninth rank military general; how could such a trivial and small matter possibly reach the ears of His Majesty the Emperor?

The empress was naturally very busy, and still had to concentrate fully on cultivation. He is the backbone of the empire. Without an empress to support the heavens, the Chaotic Stars Majestic Empire would have long been annexed by the other two Majestic Empires.

So, how could the empress possibly be bothered with a small matter like this?

Ling Han smiled faintly. Shui Yanyu had no official rank, and never used the power of the state. How could he know that as long as Empress Luan Xing wanted, he would be able to figure out every step in the entire empire?

He had revealed the great conspiracy of the Eternity Celestial Emperor, yet Empress Luan Xing did not give him any rewards. This was clearly done intentionally. He most likely wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to set up discipline in his kingdom and warn some people not to go too far.

Empress Luan Xing had never stated her position on the matter, yet Ling Han already understood it. It was because they were both smart people, and because Ling Han himself was the leader of his own kingdom, even though his Great Ling Empire was much smaller in comparison.

The problem is still growing. The news of Ling Han defecting and committing treason, and that he would soon be punished spread throughout the entire Imperial Capital, causing quite a number of people who did not know the truth to feel extremely sorry for him. He obviously had such great future prospects, so why would he choose to defect?

No force will accept betrayal; this is the point.

Under the immense pressure, many people made a clear line between them and Ling Han. Even Li Weiwei was no exception. He visited Ling Han's place personally, and told him that the Left Minister had put enormous pressure on him, telling him not to meet Ling Han again.

Although Li Weiwei might rebel, if it was the Left Minister's strict order, she would not dare to oppose it. Hence, he could only offer an apology to Ling Han.

Ling Han was still quite touched. After all, she was the daughter of the Left Minister, a noble status. It was already so incredible that he would purposely come and tell her about this. He really treated her like a friend.

It is impossible for the investigation to go on without end. After two more days, the War Ministry decided to hold a general trial for Ling Han, and the time was set at noon the next day.

Those who have the official rank of the kingdom cannot be punished by anyone after simply stating they must be punished .. Of course, the emperor is the exception — he has the highest authority. Thus, the War Ministry had to first conduct a public trial to assess whether Ling Han had committed treason or otherwise.

Once confirmed, they would be able to apply to the empress to revoke the official rank of Ling Han officer from a rank nine military officer. After that, they would be able to punish him as they wished.

From this, it could also be seen how important the official ranking was.

The investigation is divided into normal investigations and general courts. Under normal investigations, the War Ministry would imprison Ling Han and carry out interrogations, but the process would not be made public. Only the final results will be announced.

The public trial was just the opposite. During the investigation, outsiders were allowed to stand and watch.

Since the crime Ling Han might commit was treason, the effects were too broad. Therefore, the War Ministry decided to conduct a public trial. Of course, it was unknown whether Zhao Lun had any role in pushing their decision. Maybe he wanted to see Ling Han punished in public.

And when an important issue has occurred, the casino will not be willing to keep quiet. They set a bet on whether Ling Han will eventually be punished or otherwise — for example, whether he will be released, or will his official ranking be revoked. There is even a bet on whether he will be executed in public.

At this moment, the most frequently discussed topic in the entire Imperial Capital was the matter of 'treason' Ling Han.

The Grand Residence General Sha.

Sha Yuan laughed loudly, and asked, "The public court will be tomorrow, right? Hehe, this guy will be out of luck. With so many witness testimonies, he would definitely be nailed to the stake of shame! Haha, this is a good opportunity, and if I don't join, it won't be enough to vent my revenge.

"Yuan Long, go and make arrangements. I'm sure there shouldn't be so few people watching Ling Han's 'betrayal', ”command him quietly.

"Yes, Young Master!" A young man immediately replied from behind him.

"Ling Han, Ling Han, you are truly the type that will only bow to pressure after rejecting a polite offer; you must force me to make a move on you! '' Sha Yuan grinned coldly. “After you no longer have an official rank, coupled with the crime of your betrayal, your only fate is death!

"After you're imprisoned, I'll find all the secrets you have!"
