"You mean it was a trick played by Kevin to prevent you from going to the north domain?" the emperor asked.

"Your Majesty, you are right. I didn't write the letters that were found from my place. Since I was staying in the military camp for the most of the time, it was easy for others to enter my place and put something in my room. Especially a few days ago, when my grandma passed away, there were many people in the Chu Clan mansion." Though Howard had a vague idea about the person who had put the letters in his room, he didn't have any evidence. If he had revealed the truth, that wouldn't be going well with the Bu Clan.

"This isn't enough to prove your innocence," the emperor said coldly. All these were Howard's conjectures, and there wasn't any substantial evidence at all.

"Your Majesty, I know the whereabouts of the families of

worries, instead of being an idler who sits around all this time."

"Well, do you want to be like Felix?" the emperor asked plainly.

"I dare not." Walden knelt on the floor in terror. "I only hope to share the worries of you and Felix within my ability. I know that I am a person with a mediocre talent. All I want is to contribute positively to the Bright Dynasty."

"Well, you looked terrified. I just want to know whether you would like to contribute to the state affairs. Only then is it possible for me to make arrangements for you. But you got scared and knelt down!" The emperor finally had a smile on his face. "Since you volunteered yourself, I am assigning you to be in charge for the trial. I hope you deal with this case impartially. No matter what the final result is, you won't change the result with your own power and will."
