Grand Tutor Deng knelt down and picked up the document from the ground.
Recognizing the familiar handwriting, a surge of hatred welled up inside him: Chu Heng again!
Seeing the accusations against him of corruption and abuse of power, he was both scared and angry, frantically kowtowing until his forehead swelled.
He appeared extremely disheveled.
"Your Majesty, I deserve to die. I can explain; the evidence here is false. That shop was agreed upon with the Luo Family from the start. The Luo Family voluntarily lowered the price, and I was unaware that Lord Chu had sent someone to buy the shop, let alone threaten him." Grand Tutor Deng did not forget to drag Chu Heng into the mud.
He truly hadn't expected that such a trivial matter would keep Chu Heng constantly watching him!
Yet, this wasn't all; he was unexpectedly summoned to the palace by Emperor Xuanming for a reprimand.
If this happens frequently, the Emperor will eventually grow tired of him!
