The room fell completely silent. King Zheng was somewhat surprised that his daughter could grasp people's minds and satirize them so directly. He could not help but smile complacently.
His daughter was straightforward but not reckless. Although every word she said was a satire on Prince Linjiang, she definitely hit the spot for Prince Linjiang. She brought up his reputation and prestige, which were what he cared about the most, and compared him with the most despicable Earl Qinghe. It didn't take any effort for her to let Prince Linjiang know what would happen if the matter still didn't get a fair verdict.
His daughter was so smart and clever that even if Princess Linjiang really couldn't get a lesson, he was not afraid that she would be wronged after marrying him.
Shen Chen even looked at Wei An with a smile in his eyes.
For some reason, after she finished her indirect criticism, Wei An subconsciously went to see Shen Chen first. She hadn't seen Shen Chen for a few days and was angry with him, but she didn't know that he was trying his best to vent her anger. She thought he would be angry that her efforts were not rewarded, but when she met Shen Chen's eyes, the light in his eyes made her feel guilty and sour.
She had never seen Shen Chen's intentions so clearly before - no matter how difficult the situation was, he would definitely protect her from the wind and rain, and no matter how much misunderstanding he suffered, he would still stand there upright.
No one can give her such peace of mind. Wei An thought boldly that if even Shen Chen in this world could not give her the truest love, then she would probably never find a true person in her life.
King Linjiang saw the undercurrent between the two of them, coughed to wake them up, and said to Shen Chen: "Do you think what she said is right?"
Chu Jingwu was already somewhat desperate. Shen Chen and Wei An had explained it so clearly. He knew in his heart that these two people had made sufficient preparations and had already made plans in their minds.
These words obviously touched King Linjiang, but what about his mother
He swallowed hard and said, "Father... please abolish her..."
Everyone turned around to look at him in surprise, especially King Zheng, who glanced at him thoughtfully and then turned his head away.
He knelt down firmly, and raised his head after a while: "Father, the princess is right. If one's virtue is not worthy of the position, there will be disaster. Mother is narrow-minded and will take revenge for everything. She is really not a good candidate to be the mistress of the palace. Please depose her."
He smiled bitterly, thought for a moment and said, "I know she has committed many evil deeds. I also know that the reason why my father tolerates her and is willing to make my second brother sad for her is because he cares about his reputation. So, let's find a better name..."
But what kind of reputation can it have
King Linjiang raised his eyebrows, looked at Shen Chen and Wei An, and asked them coldly: "What do you say?"
Shen Chen did not say anything. It was obvious that he could not completely ignore his brother's opinion. After all, this brother was as close to him as a brother. They had been through thick and thin together for so many years. Chu Jingwu had already made such a decision on his own initiative. If he wanted to kill him, it would be really inhumane and the relationship between the brothers would definitely be affected in the future.
Before Wei An came, he had already considered all the factors and had thought of the best outcome. Now when he heard King Linjiang ask this, he said naturally: "Since the prince said so, then let's do as the prince said. As long as the princess is no longer the princess, there will naturally be no more people with bad intentions who want to take advantage of her to help her harm others. We have no objection."
Prince Zheng hummed, firmly standing on his daughter's side: "An An is right. We originally only wanted justice. After all, all the things the princess did were evil deeds that angered the heavens and the people. If she doesn't receive any lesson at all, wouldn't it be disheartening?"
Prince Linjiang did not think for too long and quickly sent someone to invite Princess Linjiang.
Princess Linjiang had already made preparations. She knew that Shen Chen and the others would definitely ask her to confront them, but she was not afraid. However, when she saw Wei An and Prince Zheng in the study, she suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. When she saw Steward Qin and Yin Shuang who had fainted, her scalp suddenly went numb. She felt that her whole body was stiff and she found it difficult to move even one step.
King Zheng felt disgusted when he saw her. At this point, it was already a display of utmost restraint and self-control for him not to kill her on the spot. He really couldn't greet her with a smile, so he snorted coldly.
Wei An lowered his eyes, pretending not to see her.
In fact, it was not entirely true. When Princess Linjiang snorted and asked Wei An why he was here, she still raised her eyes and looked at Princess Linjiang with a smile. She laughed sarcastically: "Princess, do you really not know why I am here? Why did the person in front of you invite you here? Don't you have any idea at all?"
The mockery in her eyes ignited the anger of Princess Linjiang. In the past, even if Wei An was pretending, he always pretended to be polite to her in front of outsiders. There had never been a time like this before.
She felt uneasy for a moment, her heart was beating fast, and she felt that Wei An's smile was dazzling. She said coldly: "Who do you think you are?! I am asking the prince a question, do you have the right to interrupt here?!"
Chu Jingwu had already rushed over and grabbed the corner of her clothes, shaking his head quickly at her: "Don't say anything more!"
Prince Linjiang coughed to interrupt them, and threw everything in his hand lightly on Princess Linjiang's face, saying sarcastically: "Why did I ask you to come here? You will know it yourself. I thought you already knew it when you saw Yinshuang and Manager Qin."
Princess Linjiang did not expect the King of Linjiang to say this. Didn't he always care about his face? In front of King Zheng and these outsiders, how could he admit that it was his wife who did it
You know, if this gets out and the censors find out, they will think that he is not good at managing his family!
She forced herself to calm down and raised her chin proudly: "I won't watch it. What exactly does the prince want to say? These people have united together, they must have been prepared in advance, and they must want to slander me. Since they have already prepared it, why should I watch it? Doesn't the prince believe me?"
At this point, she was still so stubborn. King Linjiang was angry and embarrassed. He hated her for always being unwilling to settle down, so he sneered: "You didn't know whether you did it or not? Third Young Master Lin has already recorded the testimony of the Xu family's steward, and there is also the testimony of Steward Qin to corroborate. What else do you have to defend yourself? You can be so cruel to a baby, are you still a human being?!"
The attitude of the King of Linjiang is already very clear. (To be continued)
