Chapter 3636: 4.1236 Wedding Date Postponed?

Mo Xu, the Heir of Prince Yong'an, nearly burst into tears.

He hadn't expected the little Crown Princess to actually lodge a direct complaint with the Emperor.

When he saw the little Crown Princess step into the Imperial Study earlier, he felt a chill run through him.

He hadn't expected, hadn't expected this little Crown Princess to actually impeach him right in front of so many important adults.

Sob, sob, sob, he had already called her "sister-in-law" and publicly admitted his mistakes, so why was she still tormenting him like this?

The Great Emperor was momentarily stunned. He took the memorial she handed him, read it carefully for a moment, then looked at her. "Crown Princess."

"Mo Xu, at the entrance of the Mu family's mountain gate, with a group of useless wastrels, wantonly shot and killed my people. He should be severely punished as a warning to others."

Prince Yong'an immediately stepped forward, cupping his hands. "Your Majesty! Mo Xu didn't do it on purpose. He was merely misled at the time and didn't participate in that activity of shooting beggars."

"I witnessed it with my own eyes; could it be false?" Qiao Mu turned and coldly swept her gaze over Prince Yong'an. "Prince Yong'an, aren't you, who failed to discipline your son, obligated to bravely bear this fault and set an example by being strict with yourself?"

"Crown Princess, don't..."

"If the Crown Prince had been present that day, he would surely have personally whipped Prince Yong'an's Heir thirty times! And helped Prince Yong'an reprimand his heir."

"Crown Princess..."

"If I had such a brother, I would certainly discipline him myself and never let someone else do it. There's a limit to naughtiness! If a person cannot even uphold their basic bottom line, they are simply unworthy of being human!"

Prince Yong'an's old face flushed red. He stammered "you" twice, unable to speak further.

No one dared to breathe a sound, each focusing on their own thoughts, filled with silent sighs.

Why did you have to provoke the little force of nature that is the Crown Princess?

Listening to the Crown Princess's implication, it seemed that Prince Yong'an's Heir, along with a group of wastrels, was shooting beggars for fun at the Mu family's mountain gate when the Crown Princess encountered them.

Presumably, none of those people had a good time then...

Prince Yong'an's Heir saw his father's face redden and immediately knelt down, lowering his head and pitifully calling out, "Imperial Uncle, Xu'er knows he was wrong."

Mo Liusheng's eyes flickered. He secretly praised his nephew's quick wit and immediately seized the opportunity to say, "Prince Yong'an's Heir, for your recklessness and disregard for human life, considering your youth and your willingness to admit and correct your mistake, you shall receive fifteen lashes as punishment."

This child was indeed clever. If he had stubbornly refused to yield and admit his mistake at this moment, what awaited him would surely be the little Crown Princess's relentless and unscrupulous pursuit...

If he didn't admit his mistake now, he would undoubtedly regret it immensely later.

The Great Emperor admitted he hadn't spent much time with his daughter-in-law, but for some reason, he felt he understood the little girl's temperament quite well.

Many times, what the little girl wanted was simply for you to personally admit your mistake, yield, and accept the punishment. Then the matter would be considered closed.

But if, after making a mistake, you insisted on arguing with her, stubbornly refused to admit fault, and even tried to quibble or resist, hehe, the little girl would surely let you know how much helplessness lay in your future life.

After Mo Xu was led out for his whipping, the little girl indeed fell silent.

The Great Emperor glanced at the little girl, then composed his face and said sternly, "Crown Princess, the Crown Prince has lost contact in Guiping Village, and his safety is unknown. With only ten days left until your wedding, should the wedding date be postponed for a few days?"

Among the ministers present, some nodded, others remained silent.

"Imperial Advisor, what do you think?"
