Chapter 243: Chapter 241

Xiao'er internally rolled her eyes at Consort Yang's words: How could you not say that you were willing to die as an apology for your transgression? That really would prove your regret sincerely.

You don't seem to grasp the enormity of your crime!

Poisoning the Emperor, the Empress and the numerous civil and military officials. This is a capital offense!

"Mother, why are you being foolish, they deserve their punishment." The First Prince understood that Consort Yang wanted to protect him.

The only thing for him to do now was to bear the inconvenience of seeing his mother punished. After all, one still has firewood to burn as long as the green hills remain.

When he ascends to the throne in the future, she would be the Empress Dowager, brighter days are still to come.

Xiao'er disdainfully glanced at the First Prince.

Remaining silent instead of proclaiming his grandfather deserved punishment would have been more respectable!
