After being reborn with Sister Zha, I was stunned!

"Father, you are very observant. Your son can't hide anything from you—" Qin Zhihan, who had already stood up, sat down again.

"You sent Hao'er away, could it be that you wanted to, wanted to--" Prince An couldn't say the rest of the words.

Although he has always valued his eldest son Qin Zhihan and believed that he would become a great man in the future.

But the second son Qin Zhihao is also his biological son after all...

"Father, I'm sure you have guessed what I mean. I can't bear it either... But at this critical moment of life and death, it's obvious which is more important, abandoning my second brother alone or sacrificing the entire Prince An's Mansion..." Qin Zhihan's face showed pain.

Things have come to this point, even if King Yama doesn't speak, several of his followers may speak at any time.

It's only a matter of time before you speak.

At that time, the old lady of the general's mansion will go to the emperor and make a scene, and the crime will be blamed on the entire Prince An's mansion.

Even if the emperor showed leniency out of consideration for blood ties, the throne would never be in the hands of Prince An's Mansion again...

"Instead of waiting for the emperor to punish the entire Prince An's Mansion, it is better to take the initiative to send my second brother to the emperor. I can also win a good reputation for being impartial..."

"Shut up, shut up!" Prince An burst into tears upon hearing this.

Although what he said made sense, he was his own son after all. How could he bear it?

Qin Zhihan really stopped talking and didn't say another word for a long time.

The reason has been made clear, and my father is not stupid. It is only a matter of time before he makes the choice.

As expected, after crying silently for a long time, Prince An spoke with a trembling voice, "At this point, it has to be this way... But, how can I explain this to your mother?"

Qin Zhihan said calmly, "I heard that the flowers in the courtyard outside the city have bloomed in the past few days. It's a good time to enjoy them. Wouldn't it be nice to ask my mother to invite my aunt to enjoy them together tomorrow morning?"

Prince An nodded helplessly; "It has no choice but to do so."

The next morning, when Qin Zhihao opened his eyes, he saw his father Qin Huai standing in front of his bed.

Qin Zhihao sat up with a start, "Father, have you thought of a solution?"

Prince An nodded silently.

Qin Zhihao's face lit up with joy, "Father, what is the solution? Tell me now!"

"Father will take you to the palace to apologize." Prince An said in a hoarse voice.

Qin Zhihao's face suddenly changed. "Father, what did you say? Did I hear you correctly?"

"Hao'er, how has your father treated you since you were a child?" Prince An asked with tears in his eyes.

"Of course it's great." Qin Zhihao responded in a low voice, but his heart was already in turmoil.

Prince An nodded slightly, his voice choked: "If there were any other way, father would not resort to this desperate measure..."

While the general was fighting on the front line, they colluded with underworld forces to commit crimes against the general's family.

This crime, to put it in a serious way, is tantamount to treason...

How could Prince An's Mansion easily bear this?

With any punishment, even if the emperor considers the blood relationship and imposes the lightest punishment, the Prince An's Mansion will never have the chance to move to that high position again...

As the eldest son of the previous emperor, rather than the legitimate son, he missed the throne that year and had long felt regretful.

Perhaps God is blessing us. Since the current emperor has no son, his son may have the possibility to ascend the throne again.

He was unwilling to give up easily...

Pushing his second son out to confess his guilt was also a last resort.

It's just that he usually spends all his attention on his eldest son and neglects to discipline his second son...

"Hao'er, father knows you are unwilling, but this is the only way at the moment... Even if it's not for your father and brother, you have to consider your sister Shu'er and mother..."

Seeing his usually serious father crying, Qin Zhihao gritted his teeth and nodded, "My son listens to you..."

The General's Mansion.

Shen Qingyin and the lady were in a good mood after successfully capturing King Yama and the people sent by Prince An's Mansion to set the fire.

All that remains is the questioning.

There are so many people, but one or two of them are stubborn and refuse to speak. Does that mean all of them are unwilling to speak?

It's impossible.

In this world, the majority of people are afraid of death.

Although the grandparents and grandchildren had not slept all night, they looked energetic because they were in a good mood.

After breakfast at noon, the lady said that she felt a little stiff after sitting all night, so Shen Qingyin decided to accompany her for a walk in the garden.

The grandparents and grandchildren were staring at a butterfly and talking and laughing.

A maid came hurriedly: "Madam, Madam, someone has come from the palace, please enter the palace immediately!"

Shen Qingyin and the lady looked at each other, both feeling confused.

"Do you know what's going on?" Mrs. Mu asked calmly.

"I didn't know. The one who came was Eunuch De who was beside the emperor. He just said that the emperor summoned him."

Eunuch De is the chief eunuch beside the emperor.

The fact that he came in person shows that this is a serious matter.

The lady didn't dare to neglect it, and turned to Shen Qingyin and said, "In that case, let's go and take a look."

The two men packed up a little and went to the front yard to meet Eunuch De. When they asked what was going on, Eunuch De just said that he couldn't explain it clearly and they would understand once they entered the palace.

The two had no choice but to give up and followed Eunuch De into the palace.

As soon as I entered the hall, I saw a man kneeling in the middle of the hall. It was Qin Zhihao, the second son of Prince An.

Prince An was standing beside him, looking heartbroken.

Seeing Madam Mu and Shen Qingyin coming in, Prince An immediately turned around and bowed to the two of them.

"Madam Mu, Madam General, I failed to discipline my son. I was careless and he almost harmed Madam... I am guilty. I apologize to Madam Mu and Madam General!"

Shen Qingyin and Madam Mu finally understood.

It turned out that Prince An had actually brought Qin Zhihao here to apologize first!

"Hao'er, hurry up and apologize to Madam Mu and the general's wife!" Seeing that Madam Mu didn't say anything, Prince An said to Qin Zhihao again.

Qin Zhihao turned around hurriedly and kowtowed to Madam Mu and Shen Qingyin to apologize: "It was because I was distracted for a moment that I did that... Madam Mu and the general's wife, please scold me, I will not have any complaints..."

Madam Mu still did not answer, but took Shen Qingyin with her and respectfully saluted the Emperor who was sitting on the high throne.

The emperor's expression was gloomy and he said to the two of them:

"Madam, Madam General, I believe you have understood what is going on now... My brother has come with his second son to plead guilty. He admits that he had previously hired a killer to kill the general's wife, and asks me to order a punishment. However, this is related to the General's Mansion. How should it be handled? I would like to hear the opinions of the two parties involved."

After the emperor finished speaking, Prince An hurriedly said:

"Madam, Madam General, he has truly realized his mistake. I promise that he will change for the better in the future. Oh, no, not only will he change for the better, he will also compensate the General's Mansion. Please forgive him this time—"
