Chapter 2 The Ruthless Eldest Princess 2

The next day.

The Imperial Palace.

Pilgrimage Hall.

"Luo Xi, you're becoming more and more lawless."

Emperor Luo looked at Luo Xi, who stood below with a stern face, seemingly oblivious to any wrongdoing on her part.

Luo Xi frowned, somewhat displeased, and said, "Father, who has come to complain to you again?"

Lodi:

"Does anyone need to tell us this? Everyone knows you had the top scholar and General Song's eldest daughter beaten to death."

As for that courtesan, her status was so lowly that she was insignificant.

Looking at Luo Xi, whose personality was exactly the same as his when he was young, Luo Di softened his tone and said as gently as possible, "Why kill them? There must be a reason."

Luo Xi: "Your subject disliked them and found them extremely annoying, so I had them beaten to death."

Upon hearing this, Luo Di's eyes widened. "Just because of that?"

Luo Xi nodded: "Yes, that's why."

What else could he have thought? What else could it be?

Emperor Luo closed his eyes, pursed his lips, and said in a deep voice, "Song Yaoyao is General Song's daughter. General Song is still guarding the border. You don't like her, so... can't you punish her a little less severely?"

Luo Xi:

“Father, don’t forget, you are the emperor, and I am your legitimate princess, of noble status.”

“Song Yaoyao broke into my princess’s residence without permission. She deserved to die.”

"If General Song is going to rebel because of this, it can only mean that he has long harbored rebellious intentions."

"Furthermore, as the eldest princess, am I not allowed to punish someone who has trespassed into my residence?"

"If I don't kill her, then will others be able to follow her example and break into my Princess's residence at will?"

“If we only punish them lightly every time, wouldn’t that be letting them trample on the dignity of the royal family?”

Lodi: !!!

He fell silent.

What she said makes a lot of sense.

Yes, he was the emperor.

General Song is a subject; his daughter has made a mistake and should be punished.

So be it, Song Yaoyao is dead.

Emperor Luo: "Alright, I understand. This matter is indeed not your fault."

Luo Xi:

It wasn't her fault in the first place.

How could she be wrong? The only ones at fault are others.

Luo Xi looked at Emperor Luo, who was sitting at the head of the table: "Father, do you have anything else to say? If not, I will take my leave now."

Luo Di glanced at her: "Is something urgent?"

She's only been here a short time, and she's already in a hurry to leave.

Luo Xi: "Your subject still needs to go to the Empress Dowager's palace."

Lodi: ..........

Yes, the Empress must know about this too.

He waved his hand somewhat unhappily, "Go ahead, go ahead."

Luo Xi: "Your subject takes his leave."

After she finished speaking, she turned and left the pilgrimage temple.

On her way to Fengluan Palace, Luo Xi encountered a staged accident; Consort Shu was trying to frame her.

Consort Shu collapsed to the ground, clutching her stomach with both hands. "Ah! My stomach hurts so much!"

Consort Shu glanced at Luo Xi out of the corner of her eye, and she knew that the Emperor would definitely not be willing to punish the Eldest Princess.

But what about Yao Yao? Did she just disappear like that?

Luo Xi saw how Consort Shu desperately protected her belly when she collapsed.

Is she pregnant? No wonder Consort Shu wanted to frame her; it turns out she has a little backer.

(Consort Shu is Song Yaoyao's aunt and General Song's youngest sister.)

Hmph! She doesn't want to be wrongly accused.

Luo Xi looked at the high steps behind Consort Shu, took two steps toward her, curled her lips, quickly raised her foot, and forcefully kicked Consort Shu down the steps.

"ah!"

"Ah, Your Majesty!"

The maids were terrified.

They watched as Consort Shu fell down the steps, blood flowing from beneath her...
