Chen Changli listened to the sincere words of the Supreme Emperor and hesitated slightly: "The new emperor seems to have had a deal with Princess An Qing, and that's why he set up such a situation for Prince Duan and the other princes."

"As far as I know, the new emperor's plan has been seen through by several princes, and some of the arrangements he made have also been figured out."

"Tonight's chaos seems anticlimactic. It is very likely that several princes have obtained some information, but the new emperor has been kept in the dark."

Chen Changli only said this. As for more words, he held back and did not intend to say them.

After all, whether it is Princess An Qing or Prince Duan and others, they all have a close relationship with the Supreme Emperor.

If he talks too much, the Emperor may misunderstand him, so it is better to leave some blank space and let the Emperor think on his own.

"An Qing." The Supreme Emperor also thought of something, and his expression was unclear.

The Supreme Empress observed his words and saw that he looked ugly, so she knew that he had thought of something Princess An Qing had done.

She thought for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, An Qing took Lao Ba and left Luoyang City because she was worried that her deception of Lao Si would be exposed."

The Supreme Emperor took a deep look at her, and when he saw her eyes reflecting nothing else on him, he unconsciously felt better.

He glanced at Chen Changli again, thinking of his protection for Wan Shufang, and other thoughts arose in his mind.

After pondering for a moment, the thoughts in his mind became clearer and clearer, and he immediately said in a cold voice: "It is indeed possible that the third and third brothers have been fooled, but it is also true that your wife Wan Shufang has not tried her best. You are covering up in front of me. She obviously doesn’t take me seriously.”

"Your Majesty, he did it because of me..." Wan Shufang guessed that the Supreme Emperor would blame her when she couldn't save Duan and Wang, but she didn't expect that the Supreme Emperor would also want to involve Chen Changli, who spoke for her.

She was so anxious that she quickly opened her mouth to take everything into account, but the Supreme Emperor didn't give her a chance and ruthlessly interrupted: "You and your wife are both at fault. Come, put them in prison and wait for punishment."

When Wan Shufang heard this, she almost lost control of her emotions and cursed the Supreme Emperor. It was Chen Changli who spoke before her and suppressed the anger in her heart.

"My loyalty to Your Majesty can be seen from heaven and earth, as can be seen from the sun and the moon. If Your Majesty has any doubts, I am willing to obey His Majesty's will. However, my wife is innocent, and I hope that Your Majesty will be lenient to her."

The Supreme Emperor didn't listen to his words at all, and had a tough attitude to have the couple thrown into prison.

Seeing that the Supreme Emperor insisted on doing this, Chen Changli could only take Wan Shufang to the prison first.

"The couple is right, Father, why do you treat them like this?" The Crown Princess couldn't stand the change in attitude of the Supreme Emperor, and immediately raised her voice to question.

The Supreme Emperor's face turned cold: "The injuries of Lao San and the others only look serious. If Wan Shufang had not found a place to hide, she would have been able to treat Lao San and the others in time."

Hearing what the Emperor said, the Princess was very disappointed in him, and her tone couldn't help but bring out a sense of sadness: "I'm hiding too, Father, are you blaming me too?"

Although she had guessed that the Supreme Emperor was plotting against several princes, his performance was remarkable, and he himself had not harmed her.

She only hated the Supreme Empress and wanted to seek revenge from the Supreme Empress.

Now that the Emperor was indiscriminately trying to arrest Chen Changli and his wife, and using such ridiculous excuses, the Crown Princess suddenly remembered Liang Fei's words.

She couldn't help but approve of the good concubine and believed that the Supreme Emperor was the culprit of all the disputes.

If he deliberately plotted against everyone, how could the unsuspecting people be his opponents?

"Xiao Yunshi, don't be presumptuous." Upon hearing the Crown Princess's words, the Supreme Queen immediately realized that the Crown Princess had complained to the Supreme Emperor.

She is the Crown Princess's aunt. If the Emperor is angry with the Crown Princess, wouldn't she be implicated?

She absolutely didn't want the Emperor to express his anger at her, so she immediately stood up and scolded the Crown Princess.

In order to prevent the Crown Princess from messing around, the Queen asked people around her to block her mouth and prevent her from saying shocking words.

Seeing her person coming towards her, the Crown Princess felt a surge of emotion in her heart.

She roared in grief: "My dear, you are my aunt, why do you do this to me?"

The Supreme Empress was so angry: "I think you are really crazy. You don't even have the decency of a princess at all."

She was so angry that she stepped forward and slapped the princess in the face.

A crisp slap sounded, instantly blinding the Crown Princess.

"Yun!" The Supreme Emperor did not expect that the Supreme Queen would dare to hit someone in front of him, and his face suddenly fell.

The Supreme Empress bit her lip and said to the Supreme Emperor: "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess was deceived by Wan Shufang and his wife, so she spoke for them regardless. I am worried that she will say more ridiculous things to make you angry. I wanted to wake her up, but she didn’t appreciate it.”

After saying this in one breath, the Supreme Queen motioned to the Supreme Emperor to look at the Crown Princess, letting him clearly see the resentment shown by the Crown Princess to show her worries.

At this time, the Crown Princess felt the burning pain on her cheek, and there was indeed a hint of resentment in her eyes.

And as soon as the Queen Mother's words came out, old and new hatreds came to her head, and the Crown Princess no longer cared about what Wan Shufang had said to persuade her before.

She grabbed the knife from the guard next to her with grief and anger, and wanted to slash the Supreme Empress. At the critical moment, Chen Changli rushed out and grabbed her knife to prevent her from making a big mistake.

"Chen Changli? Princess." Wan Shufang felt dazzled. When she could see the situation clearly, she was startled by Chen Changli who had injured his hand.

She wanted to step forward to check Chen Changli's hand injury, but the princess fainted at this moment.

She was shocked and frightened, but she subconsciously ran towards the Crown Princess and held her firmly to prevent her from falling to the ground.

"What a Crown Princess." The Queen never thought that the Crown Princess would slash her with a knife. She was the Crown Princess' elder. Not to mention her aunt's identity, just her mother-in-law's identity was enough to suppress the Crown Princess for the rest of her life. She couldn't turn over.

Under such circumstances, she actually had murderous intentions towards her and dared to put her murderous intentions into action. The Queen was instantly so angry that her abdomen throbbed.

She would never let the Crown Princess go. She would make the Crown Princess despised by everyone in the world and die with the crime of being unfilial.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me." Chen Changli knew what the Supreme Empress was thinking, and immediately knelt down in front of the Supreme Emperor, lowering his eyes to apologize for the Crown Princess, "What the Crown Princess did before must have been because she was frightened before, and then she fainted. Head."

The Crown Princess is the junior of the Supreme Empress. If she really hurts the Supreme Empress, not only will she herself be punished by the angry Supreme Emperor, but people related to her will also be criticized by the civil and military officials. In time, they will be the spit of the civil and military officials. It's enough to drown people, not to mention that people all over the world will express dissatisfaction with it.

After all, as the junior of the Supreme Empress, the Crown Princess must be filial to her. Once she is dissatisfied with her or even hurts her, it is unfilial.

Filial piety would crush a person to death in the Dajing Dynasty, and Chen Changli never wanted to let the princess fall to that point.

"Why are you so confused? She clearly hates me." The Supreme Empress was furious, "Chen Changli, if you speak for the Crown Princess like this, do you have the same evil intentions as her?"
