The atmosphere within the Imperial Court was suffocatingly heavy.
Silence pressed down upon everyone like a mountain.
Rows upon rows of officials stood quietly beneath the towering golden pillars.
Not a single person dared speak carelessly.
Because today, something enormous has happened.
CLANK! CLANK! CLANK!
The sound of chains echoed throughout the hall.
Instantly, countless gazes turned toward the entrance.
The Second Prince was being escorted into the court under heavy restraint.
Several imperial guards surrounded him tightly from all directions.
His hands were bound behind his back with Qi-sealing chains.
However, despite his current appearance, the Second Prince's eyes still burned with furious hatred.
Especially when his gaze landed upon the figure standing calmly near the center of the court, the First Prince.
At this moment, the First Prince wore dark imperial robes as he sat calmly upon his seat with his hands resting lightly on the armrests.
