Chapter 475 - 472: Joyful Heart_1
"And... I only knocked King Liang unconscious, both of them were made to sleep with incense!" The Crown Prince was equally bewildered, his face pale as a ghost. "How could King Liang do anything to the Commandery Princess! Impossible!"
The Emperor’s temples throbbed. How could he not understand the convoluted thoughts of the Crown Prince?
Of course, the Crown Prince didn’t want King Liang to marry Liu Ruofu. Behind Liu Ruofu stood King Xian, whose only daughter she was. King Xian held significant military power!
The Emperor closed his eyes. The reason he had valued King Xian for so many years and allowed him to control military power without suspicion was because King Xian had once saved the Emperor’s life at the cost of his own wellbeing, losing the ability to have more children in the process. Liu Ruofu was his only child!
The Emperor felt deeply indebted to King Xian, which was why he had always trusted King Xian and treated Liu Ruofu as if she were his own.
King Xian in Nandu hadn’t received the news yet. If he did, he might be so enraged that he would spit blood. King Xian treasured his only daughter as his most precious possession. With her reputation now tarnished, he could hardly bear it.
But how had the news spread so quickly?
Could it be... King Liang?!
The Emperor couldn’t help but start doubting his weak and incompetent son. The spreading of this matter... would only benefit King Liang.
Given the situation, Daliang would certainly not take back a Commandery Princess with a damaged reputation for their Fourth Prince. To appease King Xian, King Liang would have to marry Liu Ruofu.
