2431 Little Fourth Duan’s Valiant Combat Prowess
The emperor twitched his mouth and stood up to interject. “Alright! All of you stop fussing.”
“Imperial Father, how are we fussing! Jiankang finally could not hold it in anymore and started crying from indignation.
“Imperial Father, we had clearly been talking about how Fourth Imperial Brother had hit this daughter, yet Fourth Imperial Brother just glossed it over lightly and brought up something else to fuss about.”
“Imperial Father had clearly reached a conclusion regarding Beauty Wang and the poison, but Fourth Imperial Brother is relying on force to bully others. He insists on making Imperial Mother responsible for this matter, Imperial Father! Please exercise your judgment on this daughter and Imperial Mother’s behalf!”
“Imperial Father, this daughter did not act like a shrew on the street like Fourth Imperial Brother had said. As a princess of the imperial family, how can I shame myself like this? Imperial Father, please exercise your judgment on behalf of this daughter!” She wept as she spoke, seemingly even wanting to cry tears of blood.
The emperor felt a headache.
He suddenly regretted it. Why did he interfere in such a troublesome matter today!?
“Besides Ninth Sister, Vassal Prince Rong and Commandery Princess Xiangchang also personally witnessed this incident.”
Vassal Prince Rong darted up and cupped his hands toward the emperor. He spoke straightforwardly, “Princess Jiankang had indeed previously made a fuss on Pingshan Town’s main street. Otherwise, His Highness the Chen Prince would not have interfered and given the princess a tiny lesson.”
Princess Jiankang: …
The emperor: …
Duan Yue looked coldly at the Ultramarine Province Emperor. “Imperial Father, I had planned to let bygones be bygones. Since Imperial Sister mentioned this herself, with Vassal Prince Rong as a witness, this son entreats Imperial Father to give Imperial Sister a good lesson to prevent her from acting like a shrew all day outside. It not only shames the imperial family but also causes this son shame.”
“Who did you say was a shrew? Empress Liu screeched.
Duan Yue looked at Empress Liu mockingly. “So it turns out that your daughter looks like her mother. On the other hand, Empress Liu does not seem much different from the shrews on the street right now.”
“Fourth Brother!” Rong Li couldn’t resist chastising. “You should know your limits!”
“Eldest Brother, could I have said something wrong?” Duan Yue turned around and looked coldly at Empress Liu.
Her palms were wounded from her fingernail indents, and her face’s muscles started to shake. It was clear that they were about to explode from anger.
“Fourth Brother! Imperial Mother is still your official mother! Do you know that by accusing her today…”
“Enough!” The emperor smacked his rosewood chair armrest with a holler. “None of you speak the next time!”
Princess Jiankang was weeping.
“Since Jiankang was the cause of today’s incident, she should shoulder the responsibility.” The emperor waved his hand in frustration. “Jiankang was behaving improperly and created trouble on the street. In that case, your punishment is copying the Admonitions scroll three hundred times. Three months’ detention after returning to the palace.”
“Imperial Father!!” Princess Jiankang looked up flabbergasted. She was confused by her doting father.
She was the victim, alright?
Why was she still the one getting punished in the end?
“Five hundred times!” The emperor bellowed.
Empress Liu was infuriated, but she still subconsciously kicked her daughter lightly, indicating for the latter to shut up.
Princess Jiankang was aggrieved as she covered her mouth and wept. She turned around and darted out from the courtyard.
Duan Yue sniggered. “Imperial Father may have personally noticed how Jiankang has totally ignored her brothers and father. This punishment is simply useless to her.”
Three hundred and five hundred were just numbers. This simply could not punish her at all.
