Chapter 61 Princess, I was wrong. Can you help me speak up?
"Haha." Emperor Zhaoning sneered, "Princess Wen, it seems you won't cry until you see the coffin!"
"Fuan?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Fu'an understood what Emperor Zhaoning meant. He immediately took the maid to search Princess Wen's body and found the seal on her body.
After the seal is applied to the ink pad and placed on the paper, it looks exactly like the seal on the letter.
Moreover, Fu'an took out the manuscript that Princess Wen had studied in the palace before her marriage and compared it with the handwriting on the letter.
The handwriting is exactly the same.
"Princess Wen, the seal is yours, and the handwriting on the letter is also yours." Emperor Zhaoning was angry, "Are you still going to deny it?"
"I……"
It's all irrefutable evidence!
Princess Wen could no longer deny it, so she lowered her head in resignation.
Emperor Zhaoning said, "Princess Wen, you first fabricated false evidence to slander my thirteenth prince, and now you slander my most beloved daughter and dog. You deserve death. Considering her merits in marriage over the years, I will pardon her death sentence, but she will not be allowed to enter the palace without being summoned, and the princess's mansion in the capital will also be taken back."
"Go away!"
"I don't want to see you again."
Princess Wen did things that were more excessive than the last, and Emperor Zhaoning really wanted to kill Princess Wen.
But Princess Wen had married off after all and was the queen of the Mengdan tribe. She could not be killed, so this was the only way to deal with her.
"No, no..." Princess Wen was terrified after hearing this. She ignored the wound on her hand and knelt on the ground, kowtowed. After a while, her head was broken. "Your Majesty, if I can't enter the palace, I can't find the imperial physician. What should I do with my mother's poison? And you can't take back the princess's mansion!"
That was the princess's palace that she was most proud of!
If it were taken back.
In the future, she will probably be laughed at to death in the Mondan tribe, and the chief will no longer favor her.
Emperor Zhaoning was unmoved, but ordered his men to release the Thirteenth Prince and, by the way, to arrest Concubine Qing, who was the one who actually poisoned people.
Princess Wen was in a panic and begged Jiujiu: "Princess, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I shouldn't have slandered you, can you help me speak up?"
The emperor is so determined, I think only the princess can persuade him.
But Jiujiu ignored her!
【If it's wrong, it's wrong.】
【As an adult, you should pay the price for your mistakes. 】
【It is no use admitting your mistakes verbally.】
·
When Concubine Li heard the news that the Thirteenth Prince was going to be released, she cried with joy. After crying, she asked for an imperial decree and went out of the palace with Jiujiu to pick up the Thirteenth Prince from the imperial prison.
After arriving at the imperial prison, the guards who were traveling with her were waiting outside, so she and Jiujiu went into the prison together to pick someone up.
Because she was too excited, Concubine Li was still crying. She held Jiujiu's hand with one hand and wiped her tears with the other.
Jiujiu tried to persuade him, but it was no use.
Emperor Zhaoning was also going to come to pick her up, but the matter with Concubine Qing was not over yet, so he went to interrogate her.
After the Tenth Prince and the Eleventh Prince learned the news, they were originally helping the Crown Prince prepare for the wedding ceremony, but they took leave and hurried to pick up the Thirteenth Prince.
The Thirteenth Prince has been imprisoned for many years, and he is already twelve years old this year.
He has grown up.
The child looked different from when he was imprisoned in the imperial prison.
He had grown a lot taller, but because he had been imprisoned for many years and had not seen the sun, his skin was particularly white, but not sickly white. He was born when Concubine Li had just entered the palace, and he was the first child, so his body was naturally in good condition, just white.
When he walked out of the imperial prison, he probably felt the sunlight was too dazzling, so he blocked the sunlight with his hands, then slowly moved his hands away, adapting to the light little by little.
After he had fully adapted, he looked at Concubine Li, Jiujiu, and his two good friends, the Tenth Prince and the Eleventh Prince, who were waiting outside the imperial prison.
The joy of seeing the light of day again was wiped out at this moment.
Why are they here?
Aren't you not allowed to see outsiders after being imprisoned in the imperial prison?
Why was he released suddenly?
Mother and the others are here too?
The Thirteenth Prince did not think that he was released without guilt, because throughout the dynasties, no matter if he was guilty or not, once someone was put in the imperial prison, he would never come out.
He didn't dare ask the jailer why.
His hands were shaking with anxiety.
He couldn't help but wonder, could it be that his father was going to execute him? That's why he asked his mother and the tenth and eleventh brothers to see him for the last time?
It must be like this.
Otherwise, why were my mother and the others crying? Their eyes were red and swollen from crying, like peaches.
“No, no!”
"My life has just begun. I don't want to die. I don't want to die..."
The Thirteenth Prince ran like mad towards a place where there were no jailers guarding it. He ran very fast and went in the opposite direction of where Concubine Li and the others were standing.
Concubine Li was stunned.
What's going on?
"Thirteen, don't run."
Concubine Li and Jiujiu chased after him.
The tenth prince and the eleventh prince also hurried forward to chase after him.
"Thirteen, let's talk it over, why are you running away?"
"We are all family, they won't eat you. Why are you so excited?"
At this time, the guard next to him said something shocking: "Could it be that the Thirteenth Prince has gone crazy? That's why he is like this."
This guard has been guarding the imperial prison for many years and has seen many people. Basically, everyone who has entered the imperial prison has been driven crazy by the dark life that they can see the end of at a glance.
Seeing the Thirteenth Prince like this, he naturally thought he was crazy too.
"No!"
After hearing what the jailer said, Princess Li shook her head stubbornly and refused to believe it, but her tears kept falling like beads from a broken string.
The Thirteenth Prince ran forward desperately.
Or head towards the outside of the imperial prison.
He wanted to run away so that he would be free and would not die.
He must live.
Because the order to release the Thirteenth Prince had already been conveyed to the imperial prison, no one stopped him on his way out.
The Thirteenth Prince ran to the gate of the imperial prison unhindered.
Once he walked out of this door, he was free.
but--
He is a little strange.
He was about to escape, why didn't these jailers stop him?
Before he ran out the door, he asked the jailer at the door: "Why didn't you stop me?"
The guard asked back, "Why should I stop you?"
This person has been acquitted. He can go wherever he wants. No need to stop him.
Are you crazy? You would ask such a question.
It’s a pity that the Thirteenth Prince didn’t know that he had been acquitted.
When he saw that the guards did not try to stop him, he felt even more that he was about to be executed, and that these people pitied him, so they did not bother to stop him.
"Mother, I can no longer be with you to show my filial piety."
"But my son will find a way to write to you."
"Don't worry."
After muttering a few words in his heart, the Thirteenth Prince turned around and took a last look at Concubine Li and others who were chasing him desperately. Although he was reluctant, he still gritted his teeth and ran out of the imperial prison.
"It's over, it's over. Thirteenth Prince is really crazy, that's why he ran away like this." said the Tenth Prince who heard the conversation between the Thirteenth Prince and the jailer.
"What should I do?"
Princess Li was unwilling to believe such a thing, but the facts made her feel uneasy.
