Princess Chang'an watched as Consort Shu and the Empress Dowager entered.
His facial expression was noticeably calmer and more composed than before.
She knew it perfectly well.
The person who walked in was different from Emperor Yuanwu; she genuinely wanted her dead.
"Is there anything else Your Majesty wants to say to her? Now that all the evidence is conclusive, let's handle it according to palace regulations."
The Empress Dowager calmly walked a few steps forward and sat down in a chair.
Emperor Yuanwu took Mu Qianqian from Bin'er's arms and said, "Why did you bring Qianqian here? Don't bring her here in the future, she's too young and might frighten her."
Consort Shu: ...
Mu Qianqian: ? ? ?
father!
Do you want to hear what you're saying?
Is she afraid?
Ha ha ha ha.
Are you kidding me?
Mu Qianqian drooped her head and buried it in Emperor Yuanwu's neck.
"Daddy, I'm so scared."
That almost scared them to death.
Emperor Yuanwu:...
Consort Shu: ...
No one said a word!
"Now that the matter has been investigated and clarified, Your Majesty may issue the decree."
The Empress Dowager picked up her teacup and said calmly.
Two guards entered the Imperial Study and immediately restrained Princess Chang'an.
Issuing an imperial decree?
Are we going to execute her right now?
"emperor!"
Princess Chang'an cried out for mercy.
Emperor Yuanwu showed no reaction whatsoever.
"Brother, you can't just kill me like this!"
Emperor Yuanwu remained still, only patting Mu Qianqian's back gently twice in a reassuring manner.
"Princess Chang'an colluded with the Ning Kingdom to plot against the Empress Dowager and was beaten to death."
“The birth mother of Princess Chang’an was given a white silk ribbon.”
What!?
Princess Chang'an's breath hitched: "Emperor Yuanwu, why did you do this? It was a mistake I made, and I will bear the consequences alone. Why drag my mother into it?"
"Your mother failed to discipline you properly, leading you to commit the capital crime of treason and betrayal of the country. You deserve to be executed!" The Empress Dowager's eyes flickered.
"Heh, heh heh!" Princess Chang'an sneered, trying to break free from the guards' restraints.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Your Majesty, you've waited so many years for this day, but don't forget, Father Emperor left a will that you cannot execute my mother, hahahaha!"
"The late emperor's edict did not say that if you committed a heinous crime, you would not be allowed to carry the beaded curtain." The Empress Dowager curled her lips contemptuously.
Princess Chang'an staggered and collapsed to the ground.
The Empress Dowager had always wanted her mother dead, but had been unable to do anything about it.
She never imagined that it would all be because of her own stupidity.
This gave the Empress Dowager a handle to execute her mother.
Could it be that all of this is truly fate?
"Suppress it." Emperor Yuanwu was afraid that she might really go crazy and frighten Mu Qianqian.
Wu Jixiang hurriedly gave the guard a wink.
The outcome is decided.
Why don't you hurry up and pull her away? What are you waiting for her to stall for time here?
"Wait a moment."
Princess Chang'an had already been dragged more than ten meters away by the guards.
"Your Majesty, do you really think you've won?"
"Hahaha, then you're wrong, you're all wrong."
"Emperor Yuanwu, do you think that the Empress is the only one in the entire harem who wants you dead?"
"Wrong, all wrong."
"Since my fate is sealed, I'll tell you a secret now."
"It's this woman beside you, the mother of the princess you're holding in your arms. She's been in cahoots with the people of Ning Kingdom for a long time. You didn't expect that, did you? Hahaha..."
