"Return to the palace? How do you prove it?" Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but frown. Was he being too naive?
The Imperial family values strength and background. You have no soldiers, no provisions, and you're returning alone; who would care about your innocence?
Moreover, you cannot speak, so how do you prove it?
The Prince continued to write: "There is a Heart-testing Stone in the palace, a supreme treasure that can test the truth. I'm willing to try it."
"Heart-testing Stone?"
Isn't that just an ancient lie detector? But the Prince probably hasn't seen it before, so who knows if it's real or fake?
If something goes wrong at that time, his life might be at risk.
"Think carefully. Even if you prove your innocence, you have no background, no power. How will you protect yourself when the time comes?" Bai Ruozhu sighed, "To be brutally honest, even if you don't fight for power, others won't let you live."
