Chapter 444: Admit Mistake
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Before the Emperor could pose a question, the fifth princess knelt on the ground, tears streaming down her face, and admitted her wrongdoing, sobbing uncontrollably. “No… Father, I have committed a grave mistake!”
“Sob… I have suffered the consequences too…”
“Sob… Father, I beseech you to decree my execution. Do not tarnish the royal family because of me!”
The Emperor’s countenance turned ashen. “Cease your weeping! If you truly desire death, I shall grant it!”
“But before your demise, you must provide a clear account of the entire matter!”
“As a princess, how did you become a.s.sociated with a courtesan from a brothel?”
He was seething with anger. His most cherished fifth princess had engaged in such disgraceful conduct.
Moreover, it had become public knowledge, a severe blot on the royal family’s reputation.
The fifth princess wailed in despair, “Imperial Father, your daughter had no involvement with any gigolo whatsoever! I do not know him. I was framed!”
“Father, I implore you to uncover the truth before pa.s.sing judgment on me and to exact vengeance on the person who framed me!”
Subsequently, the Crown Prince and the fifth princess reiterated the false narrative they had concocted. The fifth princess steadfastly a.s.serted that she had no connections with any male escorts. She had been deceived and framed by a maidservant.
She explained that she had consumed an excessive amount of alcohol and retired to her room. Her maidservant then relayed a message that the Crown Prince had summoned her to the backyard near the rockery.
She had trusted the maid’s words.
In the end, when she arrived in the backyard, she began to feel dizzy, only to later discover that her maidservant had adulterated her drink with a potent substance.
Then, in a daze, she was pulled into a cave in the rockery.
Subsequently, the effects of the drug took hold, and she lost all recollection of what transpired.
Even after being forcibly removed from the rockery, she remained unconscious, leading to suspicions that someone had manipulated her to utter those words.
His Highness the Crown Prince came to her defense, affirming, “The substance administered to Fifth Sister has been identified as a foreign drug, inducing severe confusion and making the affected individual highly suggestible. It’s easy to implant certain phrases in her disoriented state.”
“Fifth Sister indeed uttered incomprehensible things when she emerged, but she was genuinely delirious at the time. I can attest to this with absolute certainty.”
While the Emperor remained somewhat skeptical of the Crown Prince and the fifth princess’s accounts, the fifth princess was, after all, his cherished daughter. Despite her reckless behavior tarnishing the imperial family’s reputation, he could not help but feel a sense of heartache for her, in addition to his vexation over her waywardness.
The Emperor gazed sternly at the fifth princess and the Crown Prince. Were they intent on concealing the events of the cruise ship? Did they believe he was unaware of the gravity of her actions?
“You admitted to your wrongdoing just now. What precisely did you do wrong?”
“Sob… Father, I was mistaken!”
In front of the Third Prince, the fifth princess voluntarily confessed to orchestrating the events on the cruise ship. She disclosed her infatuation with Su Bin and her desire for him to become her husband. Her objective was to besmirch Mrs. Su’s reputation and prevent her from becoming the Primus’s wife.
She admitted to bribing an individual who a.s.sisted the Crown Prince in managing the cruise ship, with the explicit intention of tampering with the ship’s railing.
The fifth princess heeded her mother’s advice and the Crown Prince’s elder brother, willingly a.s.suming full responsibility for the situation.
The Empress a.s.sured that as long as the Crown Prince remained unscathed, their future prospects would be brighter.
The fifth princess elaborated further, stating that following the incident with the two young ladies falling into the water, the Crown Prince’s elder brother discovered her involvement and promptly aided her in rectifying the situation. He took measures to resolve the issue, even going so far as to marry the two young ladies into their household.
Therefore, the events aboard the cruise ship bore no connection to the Crown Prince..
