Chapter 658: The Libra of Imbalance

Seeing Velissa present, Xia Feng was not too optimistic.

To be honest, both the Ombudsman and the Royal Court were unfamiliar games to him, and he didn't understand the rules of the game at all.

In my impression, Willisa is a kind and polite good boy, but this so-called impression is only a few sides.

Xia Feng didn't know if Vilisha would answer truthfully.

If Vilisa answers honestly, then he will get a strong alibi, not to mention 10 witnesses for the royal family, 10,000 witnesses are enough.

But if Vilisha doesn't answer truthfully, then he will be completely cool, and at the same time, Vilisha will completely lose her good friend Turtle.

The water at the top of the empire was too deep for Xia Feng to be sure, and if there were any external factors that would force Vilisa to lie if she was willing to lose her good friend, Turtle.

....

In the courtroom, Vilisa's face was a little pale, even as a member of the royal family, she rarely experienced this kind of fate-determining scene.

Turning her head, Vilisha glanced at Xia Feng, her eyes were complicated.

Seeing this look, to be honest, Xia Feng's heart was already half cold when he was still secretly happy just now, and the meaning of this look was obviously embarrassing.

It seems that the methods of the Inspectorate have infiltrated Vilisa, who is a member of the royal family.

Of course, Willissa is not a direct lineage, and her identity cannot be compared to an orthodox royal family like Princess Villen.

....

Xia Feng clenched his fists, and before Vilisha could answer, he whispered to Vilisa.

"Vilisa.... Turtle Turtle said she misses you very much. ”

There's no way, there's really no way at all, otherwise he wouldn't be able to bring out the face of the turtle with a dead face.

However, he didn't force the emotional scene, nor did he lie, and before he left from the barbecue restaurant, Turtle did say that she missed Vilisa very much.

...

Hearing the turtle's name, Vilisa's eyes flickered visibly.

She pursed her lips as if she was struggling internally.

According to rumors, Xia Feng knew that Wei Lantai was very fond of his little daughter, and now seeing Wei Lisa being questioned in front of everyone, Wei Lantai's eyes showed a trace of distress.

"Vilisa, don't be afraid, just tell the truth."

"Yes."

Virissa put her hands on her chest and took a deep breath, then lowered her hands, her eyes changing from hesitation to determination.

"That night, I attended a party invited by my classmates, and the whole party lasted from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m., during which Xia Feng was present throughout the whole process and never left the room for half a moment.

Hearing Vilisha's answer, the expressions of the people on the scene were quite exciting.

...

Xia Feng and Kevin secretly glanced at each other, and the stone in their hearts had been half lowered.

At this time, an official of the Supervision Office stood up sharply from his seat and said in a loud voice.

"Your Excellency, Her Highness Viresa is not yet a minor, and her testimony is ...... Debatable. ”

Before Judge Wei Lantai could answer, a representative of the Yuan Council on the left slapped the table angrily.

"Talking about it, is your Ombudsman questioning the remarks of the royals?"

The representative of the Yuan Council who spoke was at least 70 years old and was probably the head of a large family in the north.

Officials from the Ombudsman Office did not back down despite the pressure.

"I don't dare to question the royals, I just feel that this matter cannot be based on the testimony of just one person, after all, the person who died is not a commoner, but the heir of the Usas Ilo family."

"Her Highness Vilisa's words alone are enough, how many more personal proofs do you want?"

"But... It's inconclusive...."

Wei Lantai on the judge's bench had a complicated expression, and in the face of the argument between the two sides, he did not say anything to stop it.

As a father, he absolutely believed his daughter's words, but as a judge, he needed to convince everyone of his judgment, at least, for the other two collegial judges.

Xia Feng below didn't say anything, he didn't expect the Yuan Council to speak for him, of course, this may not be considered to speak for him, the Yuan Council is just maintaining the authority of the royal family.

....

Wellante was still thinking.

Just when the views of the Ombudsman and the Yuan Assembly were deadlocked, the door of the courtroom was suddenly pushed open.

"Bang!"

As the door opened, dozens of golden sword guards stood in two rows in front of the door, and then, an ethereal and silent voice came in.

"It's not the turn of the Inspector's Office to question my Victorian royal family's remarks, or does the Inspector General think my sister Vilisa is lying?"

Xia Feng looked at the source of the voice, and the person who walked in from the gate of the court at this time turned out to be Princess Verin!

...

After Princess Verin walked in, all the people on the jury table at the door automatically stood up, led by Marenleg, and everyone bowed their heads to Princess Verin.

Imperial Inspector General Capevami was frightened and hurriedly said respectfully.

"Princess Verin, the lower officials don't dare to question it."

....

Of the jury seats, there was only one person who never moved, and that was Vina.

Vina sat in her seat expressionlessly, not even looking at Verin, as if she had taken this imperial princess, who was very similar to herself, for air.

Then, accompanied by the Golden Sword guards, Verin stepped in a white dress.

When she passed by Vina, who was sitting in the first row, she only glanced at it lightly and didn't ask any questions.

As everyone in the courtroom stood up and watched, Verin stepped onto the bench and sat down half a step behind Wellante.

Wei Lantai was a little puzzled.

"Verin, why are you here?"

Verin bowed slightly.

"Uncle, Xia Feng is the champion of the swordsmanship competition I witnessed before, in order to show my attention, I am here for the jury today, it should be okay."

"Well... Of course. “

Wei Lantai is Verin's uncle, although he is nominally an elder, but in the hearts of all the officials and nobles in the court at this moment, Verin's status is obviously supreme.

....

With Verin's arrival, the Ombudsman did not dare to question it in the slightest.

The alibi provided by Willissa to Xia Feng overturned all suspicions, and even the follow-up investigation was saved, and Xia Feng had nothing to do with Rich's murder.

...

On the surface, Xia Feng has the personal support of Princess Verin, which seems to be a pie-in-the-sky thing.

But on his face, there was no sign of joy.

From the moment he saw Princess Verin walk through the gate, cold sweat oozed from Xia Feng's forehead, and his intuition told him that Verin's position might directly affect his fate.

Or, Verin could even bypass Wellante and dominate the outcome of the subsequent trial, and she had the ability.

....

Verin survived the forgery of citizenship cards, the assault on Karn, and the murder of Ricky before she intervened herself.

But Xia Feng knew that the real big trouble was not these things.

The murder of Ricky was enough to put him to death, but it wasn't enough to really move him, because he was the only one after all.

What really made him nervous was that until this moment, what Tylin had threatened in the ring had not been revealed in court.

...

That is, the smuggling of 3,000 finished source stones to the Sargon government.

In order to deal with this matter, Vina should have prepared the weights, but with Princess Verin's intervention, I am afraid that the scales of victory will tilt again.
