However, just by rendering the decision for execution three days later, does it mean there’s no intention to pursue the mastermind behind the scenes? People speculated in their hearts, growing more certain that the mastermind was among those princes. Thinking thus, they couldn’t help but sympathize with Mo Qingze.

"This student deeply thanks The Emperor!" The pitied Mo Qingze, filled with gratitude, kowtowed deeply to Emperor Huian.

Whether or not to pursue the guilt of King Heng and the Lin Family was no longer within his influence; since it was a matter for the Imperial Family to resolve, he would let them handle it. After all, this time, neither King Heng nor the Lin Family would escape punishment easily, otherwise they couldn’t avoid the world’s censure.

Emperor Huian was extremely pleased with Mo Qingze’s tact, and as soon as he spoke, he awarded him a set of the Four Treasures of the Study, all antiques passed down for hundreds of years, priceless.

This gesture was not only an indication of the value placed on Mo Qingze but also a form of veiled consolation.

Mo Qingze was so grateful that he wept and kowtowed once more to express his thanks.

Leaving the palace gates with joy, the father and daughter of Mo Family arrived at the gambling house. In Mo Qingze’s stunned gaze, Mo Yan happily counted the thirty thousand taels of silver notes, and, upon confirming the amount, casually stuffed them into her sleeve and tossed them into Space.

Not until they returned to Liu Yang Village did Mo Qingze dare to believe that his obedient daughter would gamble in a gambling house, and even win thirty thousand taels of silver in one go. This huge shock kept his normally clear mind in a state of confusion.
