Could it be that it was Prince Hao who had disagreements with the princess in Xinhua Village before?
Everyone has heard about this matter.
At that time, Prince Hao was afraid that the illness would spread to Xinhua Village, so he thought of setting fire to the corpses. He even heard that some sick villagers were injured as a result.
However, no one present knew clearly that once the epidemic spreads, it would be an absolutely terrible thing.
What's more, Xinhua Village is not far from the Imperial City. Once the infection spreads, it will also pose a great threat to the Imperial City.
Therefore, what Chu Minghao did was not considered something wrong for most of the courtiers.
But I heard that the princess beat Prince Hao with a cane in front of everyone and severely injured him. It seemed that the attack was too severe.
"Your Highness the Princess." The minister who spoke at this time was obviously on the side of the Princess and the Emperor.
However, you can't act without conscience.
"Your Highness, during this epidemic in the Three Villages, all those who have made mistakes have been punished by Your Highness. Your Highness's wiseness is a blessing to me, Nanming."
He said this not to help Chu Minghao, but to remind the princess that it would be fine if she was punished.
After all, the princess is just a little girl. She has just returned to Nanming and became a distinguished princess. At this time, she will inevitably feel a little arrogant.
The so-called first thing when a new official takes office is that she scolds Prince Hao in public because she wants the world to know that in terms of status, Prince Hao is far less noble than she, the princess.
Everyone respects and loves the emperor, and is naturally more tolerant of the princess.
Although the princess is somewhat willful in this matter, everyone can still turn a blind eye.
I just hope that things will end here, and I will be rewarded based on my merits.
It would not be a good thing for the princess to continue making trouble. You should know that King Yu is not so easy to mess with.
The princess has just come back and she still doesn't know the strength of King Yu.
"Princess……"
"Do you think I'm talking about Prince Hao, who, for the sake of his own achievements, disregards the lives of the people and wants to burn all the people in Xinhua Village, whether they are sick or innocent, to death?"
What? Prince Hao wants to make a fire and burn all the people in the village to death?
Could it be that what Prince Hao wanted to burn was not a dying person who was already seriously ill and could not be cured?
Why is this different from the version everyone has heard?
"Your Highness Princess! For the sake of the safety of the people, Hao'er decided to set fire to the corpses contaminated by the epidemic, risking the eternal shame of being reviled by the world. His move was to frame himself for injustice."
"Hao'er sacrificed his reputation like this. Unexpectedly, not only did the princess not have any support for him, but on the contrary, for some purpose, she even punished Hao'er in public!"
King Yu took a step forward with an angry look on his face: "I originally did not intend to pursue this matter because of the princess's young age and ignorance. I didn't expect that the princess would now slander me, Hao'er!"
"You can't bear this, sir! How can my Hao'er's reputation be humiliated and slandered by you like this? Even if the princess is still young, I can't let this matter go!"
He raised his head and looked at Chu Jiangnan sitting on the dragon chair, his eyes cold.
"Your Majesty, the princess is so beautiful. Even if she made a huge mistake, I would not dare to ask the emperor to punish the princess. But! How innocent is my son? As a father, if I can't get justice for my son, what will happen to me?
The king is a father in vain!"
"Your Majesty, the princess is arrogant and domineering. She abuses lynchings against people with whom she disagrees. Shouldn't your Majesty punish her for such behavior?"
