Chapter 1184 Golden Cage (17)

"You bitch! You're talking nonsense!" Concubine Li said sternly, "Who told you to say that? Your Majesty, you must not believe this bitch. She was clearly instigated by others, and the purpose was to make the sixth prince Ruier Convict yourself of this crime."

"I don't quite understand what my sister said." Concubine Rong said lightly, her tone a little cold.

Li Fei's arrogance was a little low, and she didn't have the confidence to say, "Sister, I didn't name her by name. Don't take the seat yourself."

"Your Majesty, where are the maids beside the fifth prince?" Concubine Shu raised her head and asked, "If the fourth prince and Feng'er asked the guards to take him away, why didn't the maids beside him come out and correct them."

The emperor glanced at her and shouted, "Come here, bring up the fifth prince's maid!"

As soon as the palace maid arrived, she knelt down with a thud.

"Tell me, did the fifth prince ask the fourth prince and the sixth prince to take him away?" the emperor asked.

The palace maid kowtowed and said, "Go back to the emperor! I went to the toilet at that time. I really don't know the truth!"

"How can such a coincidence happen in the world?" Li Fei said coldly, "Your Majesty, I believe that justice is in the heart of the people. I don't ask you to make the decision for Rui'er, but I hope you won't favor others."

"Father, Luo'er is a little tired." Shen Mubai pursed his lips and said, "Luo'er wants to see fifth brother."

When the emperor saw that the little princess was pale, she was already in poor health, and she looked even worse after she fell into the water. He felt relieved and said, "Your fifth brother is fine."

"Ninth Princess, do you still favor the fifth prince now? Rui'er and the sixth prince are also your brothers." Seeing the emperor's soft expression, Concubine Li changed her explanation, "The situation must have been too chaotic at that time. That will make you mistakenly think that it was Rui'er and the Sixth Prince who pushed you down."

"Sister, what are you saying? Why did the fifth prince and Luo'er fall into the lake together? If what the palace maid said is true, then there is some grudge between the fifth prince and the fourth prince. Let people investigate again to find out the truth. You will understand." Concubine Rong looked ugly, especially the little princess's complexion became increasingly ugly, and her attitude immediately became a little harsh.

The fourth and sixth princes panicked when they heard this. It was nothing to expose the bullying of a fifth prince. What was important was their rebellious words. If their father knew about it, they would definitely be skinned.

The fourth prince thought for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "Father, I admit my mistake."

The emperor looked worried, "What mistake do you admit?"

The fourth prince kowtowed and said, "Ninth sister was indeed pushed into the lake by mistake due to an argument between us and the fifth brother. Please forgive me, Father. We know we were wrong."

"Fourth brother." The sixth prince's eyes widened in disbelief.

The fourth prince pressed his head and said, "Please forgive me, father."

The emperor was already physically and mentally tired and didn't want to delve any further. He could figure out what the two princes had done with his toes. Let’s not talk about the fifth prince’s affairs for now, but the ninth princess made him angry.

In the end, the fourth and sixth princes were severely punished, and even the mothers, Concubine Li and Concubine Shu, were implicated.

Concubine Rong knew in her heart that the emperor could not really do anything to his two princes, but she was sincere at least. Although she was still a little unhappy, she gave up when she saw that Concubine Li and Concubine Shu were no better.

"Is Luo'er still angry?" The emperor held the little princess in his arms and touched her nose. "Don't be angry. Father has already punished your two brothers."
