Longing to Kill That Guy for a Long Time

The wrath of the Emperor left Guo Jian speechless.

After all, he had no evidence to accuse the fifth princess.

"Guo Jian, it seems you have become more useless over time. Not only are you inefficient in your duties, but you have also learned to bite and climb up the ladder?"

"I dare not…"

"The fifth princess is my daughter-in-law, and she is about to give birth. Do you think she would conspire with Xiao Chengjun? Where is your brain? The fifth prince is soon to be crowned Prince Heng. If you suspect his princess, do you also suspect the fifth prince? Are you going to say that my son is colluding with Xiao Chengjun?"

"I didn't say that. Your Majesty said it yourself."

The fifth prince resided in the palace, under Emperor's watchful eyes. He was usually silent and never involved in court affairs.

Even if he were to be crowned, he would only be an idle prince.

Emperor would never believe he had any rebellious intentions.
