Chapter 585: 585 Admitting The Truth (2)

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.

Song Jingchen pinched her hand in amusement and turned to look at the old prince. “Your Highness, don’t worry about Lord Jing. Without evidence, I naturally won’t implicate him.”

The old prince choked and said with a red face, “I don’t trust your people. Call a few more doctors to take my pulse.”

His residence had many doctors, and even the imperial physicians had taken his pulse. Why had no one ever mentioned this?

However, it was normal. He was a prince. Even if those people found out, who would dare to tell him that he couldn’t have children?

They would be courting death.

Song Jingchen could tell that he was already inclined to believe him, but he couldn’t accept it for the time being.

But… did he have to give him time to digest it?

“Won’t Your Highness suspect that I bribed them in advance?” Song Jingchen shook his head. “Since Your Highness is already prepared to take the blame, just wait to enter the palace with me tomorrow.”

“How dare you?” the old prince said angrily. “You clearly know that I’m just an accomplice, but you still insist on pinning the blame on me. You’re lying to the emperor.”

Song Jingchen sneered. “Aren’t you the one who deceived the emperor? You personally admitted that you’re the master of the Fragrant Teahouse.”

He was just short of saying directly, “Aren’t you the one rushing to have a death wish?” You were just fulfilling your love for your son.

The old prince thought to himself, “That’s right.”

Shen Yijia followed closely behind and continued to poke at his heart. “Don’t tell me you think your good son will save you? The matter hasn’t even erupted yet, but he’s already prepared to let you take the blame at any time. You’re still hoping for him to save you. You should go to the netherworld and wait.”

She deliberately emphasized the words “good son.”

The old prince was so angry that he was out of breath. He pointed at Shen Yijia and her husband and could not say anything for a long time.

Shen Yijia rolled her eyes. “Hubby, I’m tired. Let’s go back to our room and sleep.”

With that, she pulled Song Jingchen away. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had already arrived at the cellar door.

The old prince gritted his teeth. “Wait a minute.”

This time, Song Jingchen didn’t turn around. He said coldly, “My wife is sleepy. If there’s nothing else, Your Highness, please stop.”

“Do you swear that you didn’t lie to me? Moreover, as long as I say it, you can protect me?”

Protect him? Song Jingchen’s lips curled into a mocking smile. With what he had done to those innocent women, how could he do that? Dream on.

He did not say anything and continued walking out with Shen Yijia.

The old prince could not stay calm anymore. “I’ll talk, I’ll talk. Come back.”

The couple returned “reluctantly” and sat back in their chairs. They looked at the old prince in unison and listened attentively.

Seeing them like this, the old prince felt that he had been tricked. However, he remembered that that person clearly knew that the emperor was investigating, but he didn’t reveal any information to him. In addition, he had never let any woman get pregnant in so many years. There was no reason for him to fall for that woman’s trick. He gritted his teeth. “You’re right. It’s indeed Lord Jing. All of this was planned by Lord Jing. I was just providing him with convenience.”

The Fragrant Teahouse had the calligraphy treasure bestowed by the late emperor, and he was not related to the government. These were all invisible barriers.

“When did you and Noble Consort Liu…” Song Jingchen couldn’t say it, but his meaning was obvious.

The old prince was a bastard, but it was still a little embarrassing for him to say that he had slept with his niece-in-law. He stammered, “It’s a long story.”

Shen Yijia said, “It’s fine. Anyway, we still have a night to listen to you.”

The old prince thought to himself, “Didn’t you just say that you were sleepy?”

He glanced at Song Jingchen. Seeing that he didn’t mind a woman interrupting at all, he could only explain what had happened back then.

When he first entered the capital, he was just a young boy. Looking at those noble ladies, it was not that he had no intention of repudiating his wife and remarrying.

However, the late emperor did not agree. He only agreed to let him marry a secondary consort.
