Let him know the consequences of belittling and bullying women!
After making her complaint, Jiang Ning’s anger subsided a little, but seeing the Emperor’s face, she realized it was getting worse.
The Emperor was furious.
He ordered someone to summon the Crown Prince, then told Jiang Ning, “I will look into this matter and give you an explanation. As for you, after you go back… don’t tell your parents, so they won’t worry. After all, the matter has not been thoroughly investigated yet.”
“Your Majesty’s meaning is for me to lie?” Yun Dai choked on her words.
“…That’s not what I meant.” The Emperor coughed lightly, “Ningning, your mother’s health is not good, you can’t make her worry, right? Rest assured, I won’t let the Crown Prince off the hook easily. You should take Wenzan and Lingzi back to the Prince of Yu’s Mansion for now.”
Jiang Ning knew when to stop.
This matter concerned the royal family’s reputation and would not be good for anyone if it escalated.
Since the complaint had been made, Jiang Ning was unwilling to stay and face that son of a bitch Li Jixian any longer. She followed the Emperor’s orders and took the two children back to the Prince of Yu’s Mansion first.
As soon as the three of them left, the Emperor started slamming the table, “Where is the Crown Prince? Why hasn’t he come yet? Do I have to go invite him personally?”
The Eunuch carefully said, “The Crown Prince is injured, and they are carrying him over right now.”
“Is his leg broken?”
“Not exactly…”
“If it’s not broken, then roll over here!”
A moment later, the Crown Prince was carried over on a stretcher by four eunuchs.
His face was covered in medicine, lying on the stretcher, looking miserable.
The Emperor frowned, “What kind of behavior is this? As the Crown Prince, you… are downright disgraceful!”
The Crown Prince struggled to stand up with the help of the eunuchs, and knelt down, “This son deserves death.”
“All of you, get out.” The Emperor ordered.
The eunuchs bowed their heads and left.
“You do deserve to die!” The Emperor grabbed an inkstone beside him and threw it over, roaring, “Tell me, did you really bully the Princess Consort of Yu?”
The Crown Prince cried out, “Emperor Father, I am wronged. The Princess Consort and I just thought that since the Prince of Yu was not in Chang’an City, she was having a hard time taking care of the children all by herself. We wanted to get closer to her and help her with anything she needed. Who would have thought that she would hold a grudge against me and take advantage of my unpreparedness to strike me? She even started a fire and almost burned me to death!”
The Emperor sneered, “You two care about the Princess Consort of Yu? So much so that you take her to your room? She is your brother’s wife! Shameless and disgusting bastard, I’ll beat you to death!”
The Crown Prince cried, “Even if I had a hundred guts, I wouldn’t dare to molest the Princess Consort of Yu. I am truly wronged.”
“Don’t give me that nonsense. Tomorrow, you’ll personally go to the Prince of Yu’s Mansion and apologize to the Princess Consort.”
“I am wronged!”
“You dare to be stubborn!” The Emperor grabbed a handful of brushes and threw them at him, “I never dreamed you could be so lustful! With your shamelessness, how can you be entrusted with great responsibility? I am truly disappointed in you! If you continue to be so unimpressive, you might as well abdicate and let the Prince of Yu come back as the Crown Prince.”
Li Jixian was shocked and did not dare to argue any further. He hurriedly said, “This son knows his mistake. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I had a few too many drinks, and in my confusion, I made such a mistake. I ask for Emperor Father’s punishment!”
“Tomorrow, go and apologize to the Princess Consort of Yu.” The Emperor said coldly, “You dare to mess with her, and you’re not afraid that Prime Minister Jiang will deal with you.”
Li Jixian bowed his head, “This son has learned his lesson and will never do it again.”
“Useless.” The Emperor waved his hand impatiently, “Get lost and settle this matter. If it gets out of hand, damaging the prestige of the royal family, you can imagine the consequences..”
