What a statement that avoids the main point, misrepresents the facts and distorts the facts.
The corners of Shen Xihe's lips rose slightly.
"Your Majesty, that's not the case." Xiao Changgeng took the initiative to step forward, "Fourth sister..."
"Your Majesty." Shen Xihe interrupted the twelfth prince Xiao Changgeng. She held her shawl and walked lightly with lotus steps, her posture elegant. "Princess Yangling said what she saw, and Zhaoning said what Zhaoning saw. Your Majesty will make a clear judgment after listening to what is right and wrong."
Emperor Youning glanced at the people and said, "Zhaoning, you speak."
"Zhao Ning entered the palace today to visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. When he was leaving the palace, he passed by Wenxuan Pavilion and the twelfth prince fell from the sky. If Zhao Ning had not brought his maid with him, not only would Zhao Ning have been injured, but the twelfth prince would have been either disabled or injured."
Shen Xihe said, glancing at Princess Yangling calmly: "His Highness fell from the rooftop, but no one followed him. I was wondering, but then I heard Princess Yangling's bossy voice in Wenxuan Pavilion..."
Clearing her throat, Shen Xihe repeated Princess Yangling's words: Xiao Changgeng, did you faint from the fall? If you are still breathing, climb up and get it for me!
As soon as she finished speaking, Princess Yangling turned pale, Xiao Changgeng lowered his head in obedience, and Emperor Youning looked even uglier.
"Father, son..."
"Your Majesty, my father has only three sons. Zhaoning and my brother are separated from their half-sisters. I wonder if even in a large family with many branches and leaves, brothers and sisters separated by their mothers are like this." Shen Xihe looked confused. "But the Fifth Princess is really a bit uneducated. The Twelfth Prince is a little younger than her. It's ok for her not to love her younger brother, but she doesn't even treat him as a living person...
My father said that the royal family is a model for the world and a role model for all people, so he allowed Zhaoning to come to the capital. But if there is anything unclear, she should look at the manners of the princesses. It would be a blessing for Zhaoning to learn a little bit. However, Zhaoning really cannot learn to behave like the fifth princess. "
"Shen Xihe, you are so outrageous!"
"Shut up!"
Princess Yangling yelled in anger, but Emperor Youning gave her a stern look and frightened her so much that she fell to her knees.
"Your Majesty, please don't be upset. Princess Yangling is probably too young. Seeing that Your Highness didn't respond for a long time, she was a little worried that Your Highness might have been injured. Princess Changling's reply really opened Zhaoning's eyes..."
Shen Xihe paused, and said to the gloomy Emperor Youning, "What are you afraid of? Even if he falls and gets hurt, his father will only think he is useless."
When Shen Xihe said this, Xiao Changgeng showed just the right amount of disappointment and a forced smile.
"Your Majesty, my father always said that all ten fingers have different lengths. In the past, if I made a mistake in the northwest, my father would punish my brother together. It's not that he is partial to me, but it's the elder brother's responsibility to take care of the younger sister. Zhao Ning vaguely remembers that the twelfth prince is the same age as the two princesses, but a few months younger than them. Why does he want the younger brother to be humble and take care of the elder sister
My father didn't like my half-sister, but he never treated her harshly in terms of food, clothing and other expenses, and he never allowed my brother and I to bully her.
On the other hand, Your Highness, is it true that the way children are raised in Kyoto is different from that in the Northwest?"
Shen Xihe asked very sincerely, and he almost said that Emperor Youning did not know how to educate his children.
But everyone knew what she meant, but even if they took the words apart they couldn't make up the sentence, and it was impossible to accuse her of disrespect.
