Chapter 1416: Chapter 1415: Incompetent Ruler! Enchantress!
Chu Minghao wanted to retort, but looking back, he saw his father’s sharp and cold eyes.
This matter, if investigated further, might reveal more complicated issues.
Father has already given up on him.
"It’s my fault, I...jealous of the Princess, sought to remove her, leading to this grave sin."
Gui Tong said nothing more.
With this matter settled, the Crown Prince was in despair, and so was he.
"If you want to eliminate me, there are many ways. Why implicate innocent people?"
Chu Qianli stared at his ashen face. Before Chu Minghao could speak, she suddenly looked at Chu Jiangnan and said, "Father, this matter may not be so simple. How about we reconsider at a later date?"
"No need to reconsider."
Chu Minghao slowly stood up.
As he rose, Yang Xun immediately stepped forward to prevent him from attacking the Princess and the Emperor.
Chu Minghao stared at Chu Qianli, smiling coldly: "You fake princess! You conspire with Yexuan’s Prince Feng Yexuan to take my Nanming’s Jiangshan."
"I want to remove you because you’re a major threat to Nanming!"
"She’s a fake princess! Ministers, do not be deceived by her! She is not only Yexuan’s Prince’s woman but also a Prince of Longteng Country. She has come to my Nanming to seize it!"
"Impudent!" The Emperor furiously scolded!
Yang Xun immediately restrained Chu Minghao!
"Your Majesty, you have been deceived by her too! Ha! This time when the Moat collapsed, it was orchestrated by Chu Qianli and me. Chu Qianli is also a criminal of all ages. Ha, haha, hahaha..."
Chu Minghao suddenly burst into mad laughter, appearing deranged.
Court officials exchanged glances; at this moment, they didn’t know what to say and could only remain silent one by one.
Unexpectedly, after cursing the Princess, Chu Minghao turned to curse Prince Yu: "Father...no, you are not my father! In your heart, I’ve never been your son!"
"Whatever I do, you don’t support me. You always undermine me, never considering letting me inherit your military power!"
"I just want to stand out, to take charge, to do something that makes you look at me differently! I even want to surpass you, to take everything from you!"
"You are not my father. From now on, I have no relation with you! Someday, I will defeat you all! I must prove to everyone that I can stand tall without Prince Yu."
"Ha, hahaha..."
"Father, please take him away first." Chu Qianli said indifferently.
Chu Minghao’s madness was a result of Prince Yu’s threats, but now, whether he speaks or not, it matters little.
They have other matters to attend to.
The Emperor waved his hand.
Yang Xun immediately escorted Chu Minghao to the dungeon.
Along the way, one could still hear Chu Minghao shouting: "Foolish Emperor, I have done such heinous deeds, why do you not execute me immediately, what are you waiting for?"
"Foolish Emperor! Foolish Emperor! Chu Qianli, you enchantress! Enchantress..."
The person was finally taken away, yet in the hall, his seemingly mad but utterly desperate curses seemed to linger.
Prince Yu’s face was hard to read, whether out of grief or anger.
But for now, everything has settled.
Chu Minghao will not survive this; there is no turning back.
He now clings to the last straw: "Lingjiu Hall cannot go a day without a master, Your Majesty, if the State Preceptor is still alive, please bring him out to reassure everyone!"
