"Youâre talking nonsense! This is slander!" Prince Ping became anxious as he heard him bring this matter up again.
"Slander?" Prince Le clapped his hands, and at this moment a few guards dressed in black walked in from outside the Golden Throne Hall, escorting a man and a woman inside, "See that? Thatâs your father! Although I find the Baili Familyâs blood quite filthy, itâs absurd that someone with not a drop of Baili blood can live better than me, isnât it?"
The ministers looked over, seeing the once-noble Her Highness Noble Princess Consort and a monk tightly bound, their clothing somewhat disheveled, facing the Emperorâs sinister gaze, the Noble Princess Consort shook her head repeatedly.
But her mouth was covered.
"See that? Thatâs the price of stealing someone elseâs beloved!" Prince Le laughed heartily at the Emperor, "Back then, the Noble Princess Consort was also betrothed to this monk. What a pity that bringing her into the palace meant nothing! With a crown of betrayal over you, take a good look, who does this Prince Ping resemble more? Several years in the palace without pregnancy, but after the monk came to pray, she gave birth to Fifth. Only you, blind as you are, could make such a mistake."
"Youâre lying, youâre talking nonsense!" Prince Ping couldnât believe it, nor did he wish to.
He was still dreaming of being supreme, he had not yet become the worldâs number one, how could he lose that qualification?
"Nonsense? Just by looking at the two of you, if I were to say youâre not father and son, I bet nobody would believe it."
Indeed, Prince Pingâs features closely resembled those of the monk.
"Honestly, I didnât want to meddle in your vile affairs, but sadly, because of the death of my mother consort, this vile woman whispered a lot back then, I find it hard to let her off." He left unsaid that back then, when he was bullied in the palace, this vile woman contributed significantly too.
After speaking, not giving anyone a chance to speak, Prince Le suddenly acted, piercing the Noble Princess Consort with a sword, and before anyone could react, he stabbed the monk with another.
"Mother Consort!!"
Prince Ping cried out in surprise, rushing over to hold the Noble Princess Consort, pulling the cloth from her mouth, crying out in anguish, "Mother Consort..."
"What he said is true! Heâs your real..." Before finishing her sentence, her eyes closed completely.
"Mother Consort!"
"Ugh!!" Prince Ping spat out a mouthful of blood.
However, this was not because of excessive grief, but a sword piercing through his back.
Turning his head with difficulty, disbelief in his eyes, "Father... Emperor..."
"Humph, not one of my imperial family, yet you dare to call me Father Emperor?" The Emperor, eyes gleaming gold, drew the blade from his hand, blood spraying everywhere as Prince Ping died!
The situation reversed sharply, the crowdâs heads nearly exploding.
"Someone, someone!!" The Emperor called out again, "Arrest this nonsense-spewing treacherous rebel for me! With impure blood, dreaming of inheriting my Great Zhouâs throne, what a delusion!"
"Infuriated disgraced? Haha..." Prince Le laughed, "Your anger is useless, today I will guarantee your reputation is utterly ruined. Fifteen years ago, your wifeâs beauty caught your eye during a discreet visit in Jiangsuâs Mianyang County, and you seized herâthat was Princess Consort Lv who died three years ago. Twelve years ago, the Prefectural Magistrate of Shandongâs family was wiped out because his wife didnât fear your threats, biting her tongue to commit suicide on the spot, and in rage, you exterminated their entire family. Six years ago, you again dressed incognito in Jiangsu, impregnating a farmerâs daughter in Jiangsuâs Yuyang County, leaving her behind to ultimately burn to death. Do you want me to expose several more incidents?"
"Curious about how I know all this?" Prince Le smiled, "Did you think I controlled your secret guards for nothing?"
