章 1461: Xiao Jingrui's Order!

When he requested to be a commoner, some of the officials in the court requested for His Majesty to make him a sinecure king. After all, he was the Emperor's biological son. If he were demoted to a commoner, it would be a disgrace to the royal bloodline.

After that, the Emperor did not demote him to a commoner, nor did he confer him the title of a sinecure king.

He was still living in the palace, but he was no longer imprisoned.

The Emperor wanted to keep him alive in case of need!

A need on the battlefield!

This made the empress and the crown prince's faction feel threatened.

The Empress had sent people to assassinate him several times, but in the end, they all died without a cause!

From then on, Xiao Jingrui stayed peacefully in the courtyard of the dilapidated palace.
