Lin Ye and the other three listened with excitement. Who knew something this entertaining could happen?
"Was corruption in the Star Luo Empire really that bad?"
"Every level padded the figures? That's incredible!"
Something that should have cost two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins had ballooned into five million.
Twenty-five times as much!
No wonder the Star Luo Emperor was furious.
No ruler could ignore something like that.
And because of Dai Mubai, the Star Luo Royal Family had become a laughingstock.
The affair had caused such an uproar that even the Heaven Dou Empire had taken notice.
The reason was simple: Star Luo spies!
The two empires were enemies, yet a prince from one was studying in the other.
And there were large numbers of spies from a hostile power.
Was anyone supposed to believe those spies were there to protect Dai Mubai?
Obviously not.
There had to be more to it!
The Star Luo spies had likely come to gather intelligence on the Heaven Dou Empire.
The Heaven Dou Empire certainly wouldn't let the matter rest.
The Star Luo Royal Family's current internal discussions were directly tied to it, too.
Zhao Wuji sighed. "I can't be bothered with the Star Luo Empire's internal affairs, but Mubai is in serious trouble now."
"He should be released today, but he may lose his position as prince!"
Zhao Wuji didn't know much about royal power struggles, but even he knew the consequences of losing that position could be disastrous.
Dai Mubai would become an outcast of the Star Luo Royal Family.
Every privilege that came with being a prince would vanish.
Good. If he loses his position, the Zhu Family can break off his engagement to Zhu Zhuqing.
*Too bad the uproar still isn't big enough. The Star Luo Royal Family
