As soon as Pei Chengye's words fell, he could feel a murderous aura attacking him, and his heart chilled instantly as he watched his surroundings alertly.
Where did this murderous aura come from?
All he saw was Pei Huaian's hand gripping tightly, his gaze icy as it landed on Pei Chengye.
He would not allow anyone to slander Shao He, much less insult her. Pei Chengye was truly reckless, and it seemed he still needed to be taught a lesson.
The Emperor, lying weakly in bed, listened to their quarreling voices and felt a splitting headache, eventually opening his eyes with an authoritative glare.
"I will ask you once more, how long do I have to live? If you do not tell the truth, I will have you executed by beating today!"
"Your Majesty's health..."
"You had better think clearly before you speak, if something happens to me, I will have your whole family buried with me." Judge Zhang instantly trembled in fear.
