With a long sigh, the Fourth Prince said, "Chunxi is dead, so be it. There's nothing to fear from Mother's side. After what happened today, she won't dare to do anything else, because Father Emperor warned her."

"Then what are you worried about, Fourth Brother?"

The Fourth Prince fell silent again, and after a long while, he slowly spoke: "Thirteenth Brother, do you still think that Li Tiao shouldn't be kept?"

Without thinking, the Thirteenth Prince replied to the Fourth Prince's words: "Fourth Brother, you know me. From the very beginning, I felt that Li Tiao should not have been allowed to live. When she was pretending to be a fortune teller, she should have been killed immediately."

If I had killed her back then, none of this would have happened.

Whether Eighth Brother and Ninth Brother know about Li Tiao's fortune-telling ability, and how much they believe, let's not talk about Second Brother. Some time ago, the Crown Prince publicly punished you. Fourth Brother, your explanation to Father Emperor was that it was a trivial matter, but you know the truth.

It's because your second brother also found out about Li Tiao's fortune-telling for you back then.

Knowing full well that you, Fourth Brother, have been unable to tolerate heat since childhood, he still made you stand in the sun for so long. Luckily, you're alright, Fourth Brother, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.

So, Fourth Brother, I still hold the same view as before regarding Li Tiao... Fourth Brother, you need to act decisively and cleanly.

The Fourth Prince lifted his eyelids and glanced at his most trusted younger brother, saying, "It's impossible to touch Li Tiao now."

"Why?"

The Fourth Prince said, "You all think Li Tiao deserves to die, doesn't Father know that? But today Father didn't punish Li Tiao at all! Thirteenth Brother, why do you think that is?"
