Sneak attack 2

The next day, the imperial palace

The voices shouting for the Crown Prince to be dethroned got louder as a minister reported some inconsistencies in the reports submitted by the Crown Prince's office. The officials from the sixth Prince's faction began pushing for the investigation of the Crown Prince. Fresh petitions were submitted by the schoolers every day demanding for Emperor Zhong to treat the Crown Prince fairly.

There were new accusations submitted on the Crown Prince's Office. Although the Crown Prince was not directly involved in these crimes, he couldn't skirt any punishments given since he was the head of the office under fire. The louder the accusations got the more worried Emperor Zhong got. He didn't want the citizens to get wind of the accusations, Emperor Zhong quickly ordered an investigation into the Crown Prince's office.
