Chapter 452: Competition

After a few days of public discourse, the scandal that had unfolded within the royal family's courtyard lost its appeal and interest began to wane.

The emperor decided to put an end to the Third Prince's confinement. He fabricated a story, explaining that the matter concerning the fifth princess had been investigated by the Black Panther Hall. In this narrative, it was a case of misunderstanding, as the Crown Prince and the Empress had wrongly accused the Third Prince.
