The third prince never expected that he would be pushed out to take the blame.
"No…it wasn't me! I didn't!"
The third prince subconsciously shook his head and waved his hands to explain himself.
The eldest prince angrily slammed the table and questioned, "They all said that it was you and your mother who ordered it!"
Since the imperial sister has said so, as her royal brothers, we must of course give our all to help.
"Third brother, you are so cruel! How dare you replace the Empress Dowager!" The second prince also questioned the third prince angrily.
The Third Prince was once again flustered and waved his hands to explain, "No! I didn't do it! I don't have the guts!"
The fifth prince snorted coldly, "Humph! They said that it's not just you, but also your mother, Concubine Shu! Concubine Shu was able to frame Concubine Liang back then, and she is not incapable of replacing the Empress Dowager!"
"No! It wasn't my mother who did it!" The third prince jumped up and shouted, "My mother and I only knew from the beginning that the Royal Grandmother was a fake! We didn't replace her at all!"
"It's you and your mother!" The fake queen mother glared at the third prince angrily and retorted righteously, "Shu Fei was banished to the cold palace, so you came to my Ningshou Palace in place of your mother, so that I could cooperate with you and help you seize the throne!"
...
...
The Third Prince shook his head like a rattle, "No, no, no, it's not true!" Then he pointed at the fake Queen Mother and roared madly, "Old witch, don't talk nonsense! It's obviously because I know you are fake that I threatened you and asked you to help me get the throne!"
"oh……"
Everyone shouted when they heard the third prince confess.
Those who heard the inner voice immediately understood and looked at the third prince with sarcasm.
Although he is quite old, he has big ambitions!
According to what the Third Prince knew, he should have known from the little princess's thoughts that the Queen Mother was fake, but he didn't know. Did everyone already know the news?
Alas, I really don't know whether this third prince is stupid or not?
Is this the emperor’s biological son?
Are you sure it's not like Concubine De, who cheated on the Emperor and gave birth to a bastard?
The eldest prince sneered, his face full of ridicule and contempt, "Third brother, you are really great!"
"A rubbish idiot like you wants to covet that position?"
The Third Prince then remembered that he had said something he shouldn't have said. His face became paler and paler. He shook his head again and knelt on the ground. He kowtowed to Emperor Donglin. "Father, I didn't! I was wrong! I didn't covet your position. It's just that after my mother was locked up in the cold palace, many people bullied me. I just knew the Queen Mother's fake identity and wanted to make my life better now!"
But no one believed these words. Everyone looked at the Third Prince with disdain and shook their heads.
Emperor Donglin also looked at the Third Prince with the same mockery, he really thought that this beast was a fool, he was too lazy to talk to this idiot anymore, it would lower his IQ.
Then he turned his head and looked at the fake empress dowager and Concubine Hui as if they were fools.
Emperor Donglin sneered, "Do you think that since I know your identities are fake, I don't know who is behind you?"
The fake empress dowager and Concubine Hui were choked.
"Someone, bring Concubine Shu up!"
The fake empress dowager and Concubine Hui looked at each other, and a look of horror appeared on their faces.
Concubine Shu disappeared in the cold palace. It was Emperor Donglin who did it!
Before, Concubine Shu suddenly disappeared in the cold palace without any reason, and the Third Prince even came to them with evidence to make a fuss, so all of this was a deliberate frame-up by Emperor Donglin!
Everyone was waiting for Concubine Shu's arrival curiously.
Not long after, Concubine Shu, with disheveled hair and a disheveled appearance, was brought up by the imperial guards.
Sure enough, when they saw Concubine Shu for the first time, the pupils of the fake empress dowager and Concubine Hui suddenly shrank, and their expressions kept changing like chameleons.
Compared to the fake empress dowager and Concubine Hui who were still able to use their brains, the Third Prince shouted excitedly when he saw Concubine Shu being dragged up.
"Mother!"
"Emperor!"
When Concubine Shu saw her son whom she had not seen for a long time, her eyes turned red and filled with tears.
The Third Prince rushed to Concubine Shu and burst into tears. "Mother, how are you? I miss you so much! Where have you been?"
Concubine Shu looked at the thinner Third Prince with heartache, her heart filled with despair. She then turned around and kowtowed to Emperor Donglin, begging for mercy.
Even though she didn't know that the fake Queen Mother and others were putting all the blame on her, Concubine Shu knew that the situation for herself and her son was very bad.
Especially since Emperor Donglin knew about the fake empress dowager, he could only exchange his own life for his son.
"Your Majesty, I am willing to exchange my life for another. Please spare my son's life!"
Emperor Donglin looked down at Concubine Shu who was kowtowing and begging for mercy on the ground, and said coldly, "Just now Concubine Hui said that it was you who replaced the Queen Mother and had someone impersonate the Queen Mother. What do you have to say?"
Concubine Shu paused in her kowtow and quickly explained herself, "No, that's not it, Your Majesty, I dare not do that! I don't have such a big trick! It was Concubine Hui who wronged me! They just hated the emperor for using him to know the truth and threatened them to seek benefits for themselves, so they offended them!"
"Oh, really?" Emperor Donglin sneered and looked at the fake Queen Mother and Concubine Hui with sarcasm, "Now it's your turn! Are you going to continue to deceive me? Or are you going to tell the truth?"
The fake empress dowager and Concubine Hui sat on the ground in despair, with looks of despair and despair on their faces.
They have been fooled for so long, if they still don’t figure it out, they would be really stupid!
Sure enough, the emperor knew everything!
So if they continue to deny it, they will only look like clowns and embarrass themselves.
"It's over!"
Prince Huaiyang and Xiao Shengsheng suddenly became panicked.
As expected, this dog emperor knows everything. He is now deliberately making fun of the fake empress dowager and others. He wants to tease them until they are humiliated and then expose them.
No, they will definitely not be able to bear it and will give them away!
They couldn't wait for the scene to become chaotic and had to leave immediately.
The father and daughter seemed to be able to foresee the tragic future. They immediately and secretly arched their bodies and prepared to quietly leave the banquet hall.
What they didn't know was that their actions had already been seen by many people.
Before the father and daughter could leave their seats, several guards blocked their way.
"My Lord, Princess, where are you going?"
Prince Huaiyang and Xiao Shengsheng looked at the imperial guards in surprise, the horror on their faces no longer concealed.
"Degong!"
“Get some fresh air!”
The imperial guards looked at Prince Huaiyang and Xiao Shengsheng with a mocking look on their faces as they tried to come up with lame excuses.
Prince Huaiyang and Xiao Shengsheng huddled close to each other, smiling at the imperial guards and gradually moving closer to them, not daring to move.
