"What?" The old priest's eyes bulged out in shock and panic as he fell to his knees, "May the Emperor discern the truth! I surely handed him a silver! I don't know how that silver turned into a hidden weapon! I swear to Heaven!"
Marquis Xuanping clenched his teeth.
Act!
You continue your performance for me!
Noble Concubine Zhuang said with a smirk, "Priest Huo is making such a sincere oath. Could it be that he really didn't do it? After him, the only one who seems to have privately touched the box is Marquis Xuanping."
"Noble Concubine Zhuang!" Empress Xiao sharply interrupted her.
Noble Concubine Zhuang laughed, "I have no intention of defaming Marquis Xuanping. I'm just analyzing the facts."
Marquis Xuanping said, "After receiving the box yesterday, I didn't open it privately and kept it on me the whole time. I placed it in my room when I returned to my residence. The only people who can enter my room are myself and my guard, Chang Jing. Chang Jing hasn't touched the box."
