Chapter 585: Admitting The Truth (2)
He didn’t even have an heir. Even if he had an idea, no one would support him.
"Nonsense. These are all fake. It’s impossible for Brother to do this." The old king snatched the letter from South Wind’s hand crazily and tore the thin piece of paper into pieces. His eyes were red with anger as he said, "Don’t even think about sowing discord here. Let me tell you, not only do I have a son, but my son will also ascend to the throne in the future and sit in the supreme position of Great Xia."
Shen Yijia pursed her lips. "Tsk tsk, how pitiful. First, you were poisoned by your trusted brother, then you were deceived by your nephew. My hubby told you the truth out of kindness, but you didn’t believe him. Now, you’re still dreaming. You deserve to be tricked."
"Hubby, he’s so stupid. Let’s not help him. Let’s just send him to the palace. Anyway, it’s considered a meritorious deed for you to investigate this case." She blinked and thought of something. She asked curiously, "The crime of abducting a young girl and controlling the court officials should be enough to execute his entire family, right? However, his entire family won’t be involved if there’s too many people. At most, there’ll be an old princess consort and the entire Prince’s residence. By the way, it’s said that a married woman shouldn’t be punished. Princess Leyang shouldn’t be implicated, right?"
Song Jingchen glanced at the old prince and coughed lightly to explain, "Even if a married woman doesn’t deserve to be punished, it depends on the situation. Not only will the old prince not be pardoned, but Princess Leyang’s family will also be implicated."
"Doesn’t that mean that daughters, sons-in-law, and grandchildren will also be beheaded? How pitiful." Shen Yijia shook her head sympathetically.
"A pitiful person must have something hateful about them." Song Jingchen rubbed her head and pulled Shen Yijia up. "It’s getting late. Let’s go back and sleep first. I’ll bring him to the palace tomorrow morning."
Once the news of the old prince’s disappearance spread, there would probably be other changes in the Fragrant Teahouse.
Seeing that the two of them were really about to leave, the old prince came back to his senses and hurriedly called out, "Wait."
Shen Yijia secretly grinned at Song Jingchen.
