"Then why did you send someone to tell the truth to the princess?" Bai Zhou was puzzled.
"Humph, isn't it because you guys are useless that we can't reach a conclusion? Why not take this opportunity to sow discord between Jiang Li and the prince? Then let the prince deal with the princess himself. Wouldn't that be even more satisfying? Hahahahaha——"
"Second brother!" Qin Chuan gritted his teeth, pondered for a moment, and said, "You are confused!"
Then he lifted his robe and knelt on the ground, "Your Highness! It was my fault for not disciplining him properly. I never expected him to do such a thing. I truly feel guilty towards you, Your Highness and Princess! I simply deserve death!"
"Big Brother!" Qin Er took one last look at the Qin residence and breathed a sigh of relief. "You don't have to do this! Since the founding of the previous emperor's dynasty, there has been a law that does not include crimes committed by family members. Everyone is responsible for their own actions. Since it was my mistake, I will bear it!"
After saying that, he snatched the sword from the Qin Mansion guard's hand behind him, slashed it across his neck, and before anyone could react, he closed his eyes completely.

"The Empress and Noble Concubine Yue don't get along, and Qin Chuan has always disliked the Crown Prince. Furthermore, the Third Prince's maternal family isn't very powerful. If Qin Chuan, with the Third Prince's assistance, truly overthrows the dynasty, his position will be unmatched."
"However, the Crown Prince is the legitimate heir. As long as I am here, I will definitely not allow the Crown Prince to change his position. So you don't have to think too much. I and he have always been at odds with each other. Moreover, Qin Chuan has been doing evil for a long time. This time, you, Princess, have made an indelible contribution to their downfall."
"It's okay. Even if we become mortal enemies, I'm not afraid because the prince is protecting me." After the woman said this, she looked back at the man who was standing there in a daze, and laughed while covering her mouth.
