And another.
This way.
Qin Mohan and Ye Qingcheng saw that all the guards and bodyguards had retreated and dared not rush towards them anymore.
The two took this opportunity to come together.
"Your Highness, are you alright?" Qin Mohan asked Ye Qingcheng with concern.
Ye Qingcheng shook her head: "I'm fine, how about you? How are you?"
"I'm fine too, don't worry," Qin Mohan replied, shaking his head.
Ye Qingcheng nodded after hearing this.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two glanced at the guards and then simultaneously turned their gazes toward the Emperor.
At this moment, the emperor also looked at them coldly.
that's all.
The entire scene fell silent.
I don't know how long it had been quiet.
until.
The Emperor looked at Qin Mohan and said calmly, "Han'er, I will give you one more chance. As long as you give up this woman now, I will forgive and forget. You will still be my most beloved prince."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mohan shook his head: "I'm sorry, Father, I can't do it."
"you…"
Upon hearing this, the Emperor's anger flared up again.
"Do you really intend to disappoint me?"
“Father, I have always listened to you and have never disobeyed you in any way since I grew up.”
Your son knows that everything you've done is for my sake, but I only beg you, Father, to release Qing'er.
"You... Hmph! You're so stubborn! I've wasted all these years of my love for you." The Emperor snorted angrily.
Then.
Then I saw him close his eyes briefly, and then open them.
"Fine, since you're so stubborn, then I'll just pretend I don't have a son."
"Eunuch Yin."
"Your servant is here."
"Take my token..."
"Your Majesty...Brother..."
Before the Emperor could finish speaking, the voices of the Empress Dowager and the Eldest Princess came from behind.
Upon hearing this...
The emperor frowned slightly and turned to look.
Ye Qingcheng and Qin Mohan also looked towards the source of the sound.
at this time.
The Empress Dowager, supported by the Princess and Granny Sun, walked over quickly, looking anxious.
And it wasn't just the three of them.
Behind them were several concubines, including the Empress and Consort Xuan.
But they haven't arrived yet.
The crown prince and other princes also came in from the other side gate.
The emperor frowned deeply as he saw so many people approaching.
And very soon.
The Empress Dowager and others then arrived at the courtyard.
However, after she arrived, she did not go to the Emperor first, but instead took a few steps to Qin Mohan and Ye Qingcheng.
After the eldest princess helped her to the destination, she let go of her and then took Ye Qingcheng's hand.
"Qing'er..."
"Royal Aunt."
The Empress Dowager was heartbroken to see the two of them covered in wounds and soaked in blood.
"Han'er, Qing'er, how are you?"
"Grandmother, Grandmother, we're alright," the couple replied in unison.
"With so many wounds, how could he be alright?"
"Royal Grandmother..."
"emperor…"
Before Ye Qingcheng and Qin Mohan could finish speaking, the Empress Dowager stomped her cane on the ground in anger and turned to look at the Emperor.
"What did these two kids do wrong? Why are you treating them like this?"
Seeing the Empress Dowager's angry expression, the Emperor pursed his lips.
"Mother, you are unaware of the truth. These two are extremely rebellious and dare to provoke me."
"Provocation? Your Majesty, Han'er has been with you since he was a child. Others may not know his temperament, but do you not know it?"
If you say he's just being childish, I'll believe you, but if you say he'll provoke you, I'd rather die than believe it.
He's always listened to you since he was little, and he's always respected you and been filial to you. How could he possibly provoke you?
"Mother, you don't know..."
"And then there's Qing'er, who is kind-hearted. I wonder what she's been through all these years? But I see that she is filial and loyal to you, calling you 'Father Emperor' in front of you. No matter what your purpose is, you shouldn't treat her like this! Are you trying to anger me to death?"
"Your Majesty, your son..."
"Your Majesty, I know that as the ruler of a country, you should prioritize the well-being of the nation, but you shouldn't be pressuring these two children like this. They have given you a grandson!"
The Empress Dowager grew angrier as she spoke, stomping her cane on the ground repeatedly.
Seeing the Empress Dowager's annoyed expression, the Emperor pursed his lips, frowned slightly, and fell silent.
After a short while...
The emperor then closed his eyes briefly.
"Very well, now that you have come, Your Majesty, I will let them leave today."
However, this seventh prince has committed treason and disobeyed me. Today, I will strip him of his title of prince, remove him from his status as a crown prince, and demote him to a commoner.
"What? Demoted to commoners?"
“That’s right, Seventh Prince, you are unfilial and disloyal, and unfit for important responsibilities. Your son can hardly tolerate you.”
"Unfilial and disloyal? Your Majesty..."
"Mother, you don't need to say anything more, your mind is made up."
"emperor…"
"Mother."
The Empress Dowager was about to say something more, but at that moment the Eldest Princess stopped her and shook her head slightly.
"Mother, please stop talking. My brother is the ruler of the country and he will make his own choice."
"Qing'er, you..."
The Empress Dowager frowned slightly as she looked at the Eldest Princess.
The eldest princess nodded at her, seemingly speaking in riddles.
However, the Empress Dowager seemed to understand something.
She sighed deeply, "Well, since it's His Majesty's decision, I have nothing to say."
