Baili Chengyou was about to follow, but was stopped by the King's wife with a look.

She first bowed to the king behind the table, and when she stood up, her whole body swayed slightly, but she still stood still.

She raised her eyes to look at the eldest prince and said coldly:

"Your Highness, you are so hypocritical. I'm sure you have been preparing for this attack for a long time, right?"

The wife of the king had been lying in bed for more than two months, and her complexion was not good at the moment, and could even be said to be pale.

She stood in the hall with her thin body, in front of everyone, her face calm.

Qiao Jiaojiao was surprised to find that the current wife of the king was completely different from the gentle one she was during the day.

She seemed to be wearing a layer of armor, swallowing all the weakness and bitterness.

She displayed the dignity of a queen's wife and firmly defended her innocence, protecting Baili Chengyou behind her, and perhaps... the second prince as well.

"This palace and the Second Prince are indeed old acquaintances."

The eldest prince's eyes widened when he heard this. He looked at the king excitedly and said loudly: "Father, the lady has admitted it! You see, what I said is true!"

Before the king could speak, his wife raised her voice and took over the conversation.

"Your Highness, why are you so anxious? If you jump to conclusions based on a limited view of the whole situation, won't you force me to death?"

"The reason why I met His Majesty the Second Prince can be traced back to when my aunt was still alive..."

The King's wife once again talked about the incident, but her tone was calm and she seemed to have let it go.

"That's what happened before. After my aunt passed away, I severed all ties with the Second Prince."

"Even when we first met, we both strictly followed etiquette and never overstepped the boundaries!"

The eldest prince never thought that the wife of the king would dare to speak of this love affair openly. He stammered for a moment, and then let out a sneer.

"This is just Madam's one-sided statement. I have Aunt Qiu as a witness! You had secret meetings at the ancient temple and visited it many times. Can you still call this abiding by propriety, righteousness, and integrity?"

The Queen's wife remained calm and replied forcefully, "My aunt brought them together back then, and as a junior, I couldn't bear to see my aunt suffer from serious illness and still have regrets, so I went to meet the Second Prince."

"Every time we met, the maids, eunuchs and servants were all there, everything was clean and innocent!"

"Besides, your Majesty knows best whether I was intact when I entered the palace!"

The wife of the king is the eldest daughter of a prominent family. The last sentence, spoken in front of everyone, has already crossed her bottom line.

As soon as she finished speaking, a surge of energy and blood surged in her chest, and she felt weak in her hands and feet, and the world was spinning.

Baili Chengyou saw the drastic change of expression and hurried forward to support him.

"Mother!"

The Second Prince's shoulders moved, and the Second Princess beside him seemed to have known that he could not control himself, and immediately raised her hand and pulled his sleeve without making a sound.

The second prince felt a pulling force on his sleeve and his feet froze in place instantly.

Everyone's attention was on the crumbling wife of the king, but Jiaojiao looked specifically at the second prince.

The actions of the Second Prince and Second Princess naturally caught her attention.

Jiaojiao looked slightly touched.

[Ah, the Second Imperial Concubine...]

"Mother, how are you?"

Baili Chengyou looked anxious. The king's wife calmed herself down and looked up at the king behind the table.

She said in a firm tone, respectfully: "Please, my lord, clear my name."

Upon hearing this, the eldest prince also looked up at the king. He still had confidence in his heart!

For such a big event, how could he act rashly based on just Nanny Qiu's one-sided statement and the speculation back then?

He has evidence!

The king rested his hands on the jade table, looked at the queen's wife, and then at the eldest prince.

The next moment, he suddenly picked up the neatly stacked memorials at hand and threw them hard at the eldest prince.

"idiot!"

The king shouted angrily and threw the memorial at the eldest prince, who was so frightened that he fell to his knees in panic.

"Father, you can scold me as you please, but everything I say is true!"

When the king heard that the eldest prince was still embarrassing himself here, he became so angry that his face turned red and his breathing became rapid.

This idiot!

How could he not know whether Shen Ningyun was a virgin back then?

Although the eldest brother is not very wise on weekdays, he still has some cleverness. He behaved so ugly today. Was he tricked by the second brother or the third brother?

The king's gaze swept across the second prince and then looked at the third prince, his eyes full of deep meaning.

That's fine.

Today he wants to see what tricks his three sons can play to fight for the position of leader!

"Boss, if you keep talking nonsense, I will abolish your throne now!"

The eldest prince looked up in disbelief when he heard this, "Father!?"

The king looked down at her, lowered his eyes and said in a cold voice: "Immediately kowtow to Madam and admit your mistakes. As long as Madam is willing to forgive you, I will keep your position as the prince for the time being. You can go back to the palace and reflect on your mistakes!"

Upon hearing this, the eldest prince clenched his hands under his sleeves until his knuckles turned white, and his heart felt even colder.

Father, you.....Why are you...

"Father, I really don't know how Madam deceived you. I beg you to retrieve the records of the Jingshifang from that year. We will know the answer once we check!"

He had already gone to great lengths to bribe the eunuchs in the Jingshifang and checked the records of his wife's first night with the emperor.

Everything is written clearly on it, except for the mention of "fallen blood"!

He had read the records of other concubines' first sleeping sessions, and the "bleeding" was of vital importance, which was marked in the records!

No matter why my father endured it all those years ago, since he chose to take action today, there is no way back.

"Jingshifang?"

The king raised his eyebrows and suddenly sneered: "Okay, you have even extended your hands to the Jingshifang?"

The eldest prince shook his head repeatedly and denied it quickly, "Father, I only know that the Jingshifang cannot be fake. We will know if Madam is innocent after checking!"

"Father, the Emperor loves me dearly. I cannot bear to see you being taken advantage of by your Madam and the Second..."

"Then check it out."

The cold voice of the Queen's wife suddenly sounded, interrupting the eldest prince's clichés.

At this time, Baili Chengyou let go of the Queen's wife's arm and walked up to the eldest prince.

He lowered his eyes and asked calmly, "Brother, if this matter was all fabricated by you with ill intentions, should you give all of us an explanation?"

The eldest prince sneered when he heard this, "Third brother, you should worry about yourself first. After all, you... hehe..."

Baili Chengyou's expression did not change after hearing this, he just repeated in a cold voice: "Should you give everyone an explanation?"

Seeing how calm Baili Chengyou was, the eldest prince couldn't help but feel a little hesitant, but he quickly suppressed it.

He had planned this matter a long time ago but kept it secret. It was revealed today and everything was connected. The third brother is still young and is just being brave out of his desire to protect his mother.

As long as the records from the Jingshifang come out, the fact that my wife and my second brother had an affair without any matchmaker and were still connected would be proven. How could he have fabricated it?

Thinking of this, he snorted coldly, "Third brother, open your eyes and see what kind of person your mother is!"

"If my elder brother fabricates even a little bit, my father will certainly not forgive me!"
