After the Minister of the Ministry of Justice and the chief of Dali Temple left the Sixth Prince's Mansion, Shangguan Xuanyi went to the palace. The emperor asked him why the death of Li Mingfang had involved him.

Shangguan Xuanyi explained the ins and outs of the matter. The emperor, knowing that it was not related to Shangguan Xuanyi, ordered a trial by the three judicial departments.

The three leaders of the judicial departments left the imperial study room, leaving only the chief of Dali Temple looking glum. He wanted to pull the two people beside him for a discussion, but they left quickly.

Although the three departments would jointly try the case, the Minister of Justice had decided not to voice his opinion.

The matter involved Shangguan Xuanyi, but who would dare to treat him as a criminal?
