Chapter 60 Demoted to Princess

After the charges were laid out one by one, Princess Jianing had no room for rebuttal. She didn't know where to start her defense.

The matter is so important that even Yuan Ke doesn't know how to speak.

Du Guangji looked at Lin Yin who was ignoring her, and felt angry in his heart. He was not worried about Princess Jianing, but worried that Yuan Que's status would be shaken.

Soon, a courtier stood up and spoke - this person was Mu Yushi, the son of Taifu Mu.

"Our dynasty has always governed the world with filial piety. Princess Jianing disrespected Taizu Taizu, which can be said to be unfilial. Princess Jianing forgot the place where she was born, which can be said to be unjust. She compared several soldiers with the best foreigners and insulted them. This is

It is disloyal to the country. Disrespecting your eldest brother and humiliating your own sister is disloyal. Your Majesty, if what Princess Changle said is true, then Princess Jianing will be so immoral that she will become the princess of a country."

"Jianing, is what Changle said true?" Emperor Xingde said solemnly, and he couldn't help clenching his fists.

"Father, I..." Princess Jianing's face turned pale.

The queen was well aware of her daughter's character and quickly said: "Your Majesty, you have always known Jianing's character. She has been spoiled by us since she was a child. She has always been outspoken and willful in everything she encounters, but she is absolutely

Not that evil

Unforgivable, treasonous and unethical person. Today’s disaster is all caused by my faulty teaching. If the Holy One wants to punish me, whether it is punishing my concubine or punishing Jianing, I will admit it. However, Jianing is definitely not such a person.

, I also hope that the Holy Spirit will give me a clear warning.

Aside from other things, let’s talk about the relationship between the prince and Jianing. You have always known about it. How could Jianing be so disrespectful to his brother? The princess must have misunderstood something in this matter."

Since what happened today, it is impossible for Jianing to escape unscathed. The top priority is not to let her bear those charges.

Those crimes, let alone the impact on Jianing, even the prince Yuanque would be affected because of this sister.

She grasped the last point. If any of the charges Linyin arranged for Jianing were false, then there would be a lot of room for exoneration in this matter. Similarly, she was also reminding the emperor that if the family was affected, the crown prince

Their status will inevitably be unstable.

The empress and Emperor Xingde had been together for many years, and they were very affectionate. The empress knew Emperor Xingde's thoughts first-rately.

"Prince, tell me." Emperor Xingde looked at Yuanque on the side.

"Jianing was not disrespectful to his son." Yuan Que immediately understood what the empress meant. Even though he was angry that his sister had caused him trouble, he still cooperated with the empress's performance.

The eldest princess of Hengyang on the side saw this and said with some surprise: "If that's the case, then why did His Highness slap the princess? Even if the princess is His Highness's sister, there is no reason to slap the princess for no reason? What on earth is going on? His Highness the Prince slapped the princess in Jianing

The princess was not so angry when she disrespected the emperor, but then she was suddenly slapped?"

The eldest princess of Hengyang was very heart-wrenching, and every word she said was directed towards the prince.

What she said was a trap. Among the crimes Linyin just listed, being disrespectful to Taizu Taizong was the most serious one. However, the Crown Prince did not make a big reaction to this matter. This only shows that

One thing is that the prince, like Princess Jialing, did not have much respect for Taizu Taizong.

It is not a good thing for a country's crown prince to be accused of being unfilial.

At the same time, she raised another doubt. She wanted to see how Yuan Qing would fabricate this matter. Once the fabrication was not done well, it would be deceiving the emperor.

The queen gritted her teeth and did not expect that the eldest princess of Hengyang would be so difficult to deal with.

Linyin was silent on the side. She originally planned to attack, just because she wanted to teach Princess Jianing a lesson and make her calm down and stop bullying Princess Yining.

But later on, her goals became more diverse. Her ultimate goal now is not Princess Jianing, but the Crown Prince and the Empress.

She just wanted to accuse the emperor and empress' family of not believing in Taizu and Taizong, so as to shake their rule.

The mother-in-law understood her thoughts very accurately and cooperated with her to perform in front of officials from both the government and the public.

Seeing this, Du Guangji hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was extremely angry when he first heard that Princess Jianing had said something rude, but it was inconvenient to question her because of the crowd. Until later, no matter how His Highness the Crown Prince comforted the princess, he never repented. The Crown Prince

His Highness couldn't help but take action in his desperation."

In order to exonerate Yuan Que, he sacrificed Princess Jianing without hesitation. Once his words came out, he directly confirmed Princess Jianing's crime.

He doesn't have much affection for Princess Jianing. If sacrificing Princess Jianing can protect the prince, he will choose the prince without hesitation. The Du family is a relative, and the center of the alien group is the prince.

Princess Jianing couldn't believe it. She couldn't imagine that her sweetheart would actually say such words, and the purpose of all this was just to make her brother free from any stain.

The queen couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her nephew coming out to defend her son. Although she also felt sorry for her daughter, in her eyes, her daughter was just a daughter, and after all she could not compare to her son. What's more, she couldn't save her daughter at the moment.

, let alone let the daughter bring trouble to the son.

"Come here to tell me my decree. Princess Jianing bullied her concubine, contradicted her brother, and made disrespectful remarks. She was unworthy of being a princess of a country. She was deprived of her position as a princess and demoted to a princess. She thought about her faults in the palace, and she couldn't come up with no purpose."

The emperor said coldly.

He and the queen basically had the same idea. At the moment, he didn't want to know the true nature of the matter, so he had to settle the matter hastily, so as not to make the matter bigger and eventually implicate the prince.

Moreover, he did not say that Princess Jianing was disrespectful to her ancestors, but that she spoke rudely, which was a much smaller crime in comparison.

The punishment seems humiliating, but in fact it is not very painful. So what if Jianing was demoted to the princess? She is still the eldest daughter of the empress and the biological sister of the prince. As long as the empress and the prince are still there, her status

And her rights will not change in any way because of her change of status. Being grounded is not worth mentioning. Rather than joining the group, it is better to let her temporarily avoid the limelight.

It's a pity that Princess Jianing didn't seem to understand the emperor's painstaking efforts. Although she didn't show any expression on the surface, she was extremely resentful in her heart.

But this time, besides Linyin, the object of her resentment was also a prince.

With her brother here, it would be impossible for her to get ahead.

And once something happened to her brother and she had to sacrifice, her parents and relatives would give up on her without hesitation - no matter how much they loved her before.
