"Your Highness, the Third Prince is still young. He would not have made a mistake unless someone deliberately misled him. Since I am fine, please forgive him.
I believe that as long as you keep him by your side and teach him carefully, you will definitely be able to change his mind. If you really beat him with a stick, it will affect the father-son relationship between you.
I dare to plead for the Third Prince. Please forgive him for the sake of my innocence. Tomorrow I will find someone to teach him the ability to distinguish right from wrong."
Hongshi didn't expect Mu Sili to plead for him. He looked at her in confusion. He was the one who wanted to kill her, so why was she pleading for him?
"Thank you, Niuhulu, for pleading for me. Regardless of whether someone instigated me or not, I did something wrong and I accept the punishment.
But I want to ask you, was my mother's death caused by you? She was fine before I entered the palace, and I didn't even get to see her for the last time."
"No, why would Third Prince think so? I did have some dirty dealings with Concubine Li, but I would never kill her.
From the moment Ben Gege became pregnant, Ben Gege understood her idea of thinking only about her children. She was right, she was doing it for her children.
It was only because she had done something wrong, because she had attacked the eldest prince that the concubine held a grudge against her. Otherwise, she would have only been confined to her house."
"I understand, Father. It was because I trusted him that I almost killed Niuhulu's mother and her unborn siblings. I accept the punishment.
Don't worry, from tomorrow on, my son will study hard and will never let the same thing happen again. He will definitely be a person who can distinguish right from wrong in the future."
"Since Niuhulu has pleaded for you, I will not punish you with a cane. Kneel outside for an hour, then return to your courtyard in the front yard and begin your studies tomorrow."
"Yes, son, I'll go right away."
Seeing that Hongshi seemed to no longer believe in herself, Huai Ke realized that she seemed to be losing her younger brother, but she was doing it for herself, and she was right.
No, since Ama said so, it proves that he may know that it was her who instigated Hongshi to do this behind the scenes. How will he punish her?
"Father, since everything is fine, I will go back to the Jade Pavilion first. Mother is gone, and there is no one to take care of the Jade Pavilion. I have to go back and look after it."
"Did the king let you go? Huai Ke, you are the king's eldest daughter. Is this how the king taught you? Why are you so vicious at such a young age?
Hongshi is your biological brother, born of the same mother. Do you know that if anything happened to Niuhulu, he would not survive? Doesn't his life matter to you?
Explain to me clearly why you did this. Was she not good to you? Why did you kill her?
Not only that, after Hongshi was caught, you never said a word for him, and even breathed a sigh of relief when he didn't give you up. Do you think you'll be fine now?"
Huai Ke looked at him palely. Why did he know everything? Could it be that she was a joke from the beginning?
"Father asked his daughter why. The daughter no longer had a mother, and her family, the Nianhulu clan, was unwilling to protect her. If the daughter did not plan for herself, what would happen in the future?
There is a high possibility that the royal princesses will be sent to marry a foreign prince. My daughter is getting older, and if she doesn't consider herself anymore, she will really be sent to marry a foreign prince.
How many people who married into a foreign alliance have ever had a happy ending? My daughter just wanted to live a better life, so why do you think it's her fault?
It is precisely because the third brother is the daughter's biological brother that he is easy to use. Even if the truth is revealed, he will not betray his daughter. Unfortunately, his daughter did not expect that she would plead for him.
Not only that, because of her plea, he also believed that her mother's death had nothing to do with her. If she hadn't caused her mother to be confined, how could her mother be poisoned to death by the legitimate mother? "
Yinzhen was speechless. This daughter was really useless. She hurt others and still made excuses for herself. Did she think that I would not touch her?
"I truly regret letting you stay at Qingfengxuan after the Li family's confinement. Someone as ungrateful as you doesn't deserve salvation.
Because you are my eldest daughter, I will not confine you. You will marry me and go to Mount Wutai to cultivate your virtues. Do not return without my permission."
Huai Ke collapsed to the ground. She had never expected that she would end up going to Mount Wutai to practice. She had clearly wanted to become the only princess in the palace, so why did it turn out like this?
"Father, are you really going to send your daughter to Mount Wutai? Since you're dissatisfied with her behavior, why don't you just send her to marry?"
"Marriage for a foreign alliance? This prince has never thought of sending his own daughter as a sacrifice. Since you know that a marriage for a foreign alliance will have a bad end, how can you say such words?
Huai Ke, you may not know that my favorite is my daughter, so since you were born, I have given you the best. Li became a concubine not because she gave birth to three princes, but because of you.
You looked timid and cowardly before, and I thought it was because I didn't love you enough. Later I found out that it was not the case, you were just pretending.
Since I've decided to send you to Mount Wutai for training, I won't change it easily. You should be thankful that you're my daughter, or you would have lost today."
"My daughter doesn't believe it, Father. I'm your only daughter. Are you really so cruel? If my daughter died in Mount Wutai, would you still applaud?
Isn't it true that nothing happened to her, Niuhulu? Why can't you let your daughter go? She just wants to have a better life in the future. What's wrong with that?"
"Your selfishness makes this king look askance. This king never knew that I could raise such a daughter.
Hongshi already knows that you deliberately framed him. He should still have some brotherly affection for you. If you don't want to lose this brother, get out of here right now."
She still felt guilty when she mentioned Hongshi. Since things had come to this point, if she continued to insist, she would probably lose her life. So she might as well go to Mount Wutai. At least she was still alive, right?
"It was my fault, Father. I will cultivate myself and improve my character in Mount Wutai. My third brother was instigated by me. Please don't blame him."
"Of course. He is my son. Even for my own sake, I will not reveal this matter."
Huai Ke was eventually sent to Mount Wutai. Only there did she realize how good life was in the palace, but it was too late.
Now she only hopes that Hongshi can take the throne of the crown prince, and then take her back to the palace in the future based on their status as siblings. Otherwise, her life will be ruined.
Hongshi already knew that she wanted to kill him for his own sake, so how could he forgive her?
