Chapter 444: Admit Mistake
Before the Emperor could pose a question, the fifth princess knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, and admitted her wrongdoing, sobbing uncontrollably. "No... Father, I have committed a grave mistake!"
"Sob... I have suffered the consequences too..."
"Sob... Father, I beseech you to decree my execution. Do not tarnish the royal family because of me!"
The Emperor’s countenance turned ashen. "Cease your weeping! If you truly desire death, I shall grant it!"
"But before your demise, you must provide a clear account of the entire matter!"
"As a princess, how did you become associated with a courtesan from a brothel?"
He was seething with anger. His most cherished fifth princess had engaged in such disgraceful conduct.
Moreover, it had become public knowledge, a severe blot on the royal family’s reputation.
