The Tiansheng Emperor posthumously enfeoffed Ning Qiao as Crown Prince Zhuangyi at the imperial court, restoring him to the imperial ancestral temple. Ning Yi was extremely agitated. He had finally avenged his third elder brother. Xin Ziyan jumped out, claiming that as the Crown Prince's Junior Guardian, he had failed in his supervisory duty, and thus asked the Tiansheng Emperor to likewise punish him. But the Tiansheng Emperor stated that it was all his own fault.
Afterwards, the Tiansheng Emperor ordered Feng Zhiwei to declare the imperial edict, listing the Crown Prince's crimes one by one, stripping him of his Crown Prince title, demoting him to a commoner, and imprisoning him in the Imperial Clan Court with no possibility of pardon forever. Imperial Clan Court. The Prince of Yan and Noble Consort Chang came to the Imperial Clan Court on the pretext of delivering food to the deposed Crown Prince.
The deposed Crown Prince still believed he was wronged, and even spoke harshly to the Prince of Yan and Noble Consort Chang. The wanted Chang Hai reprimanded the deposed Crown Prince for being deluded and told him to quickly thank the Prince of Yan. At this moment, the Prince of Yan also feigned loyalty to the deposed Crown Prince.
Afterwards, Chang Hai took out a sharp blade and placed it against the Prince of Yan's neck, claiming he would rescue the deposed Crown Prince. The deposed Crown Prince initially didn't believe it, until Chang Hai said it was the intention of Duke Ming Chang Yuan; only then did he comply with their wishes.
But when the Prince of Yan and Chang Hai went out to threaten the Jinwu Guards, they didn't realize that the deposed Crown Prince had seen a letter that fell from his person. It was a letter from Duke Ming, stating that the deposed Crown Prince was to blame for his own predicament. The deposed Crown Prince was utterly disheartened.
Without any attachments, like a beast trapped in a cage, in his desperation, he would have to use all his strength to break free from his prison. Chang Hai and the deposed Crown Prince gathered all their forces, intending to force the Tiansheng Emperor to abdicate. Ning Yi informed the Tiansheng Emperor of this matter. He came to the Huwei Barracks in the imperial outskirts and had Gu Yan bring the unsuspecting Shaoning.
Yan Huaishi hurriedly informed Feng Zhiwei and Gu Nanyi of this. Feng Zhiwei was worried about the Tiansheng Emperor and Ning Yi. Disregarding their attempts to stop her, she ordered horses to be prepared and made ready to depart. The Tiansheng Emperor told Ning Yi to find a way to make the deposed Crown Prince commit suicide. Ning Yi chuckled softly. Among all the civil and military officials, His Imperial Father throws this hot potato to him?
Yes, it is most fitting for him, Ning Yi, the Prince of Chu who has accomplished nothing, to bear this historical burden. The Tiansheng Emperor was speechless; he hadn't meant that. Shaoning outside the tent heard their conversation, became extremely sad, and immediately ran towards the imperial city. The Tiansheng Emperor could only order Zhao Yuan to tell Feng Zhiwei to protect Shaoning well.
In the imperial city, Shaoning tearfully questioned the deposed Crown Prince why he was attacking the palace. The Tiansheng Emperor had already known his plan; he was now at the Huwei Barracks in the imperial outskirts and had even dispatched Ning Yi to suppress the rebellion. Upon learning this, the deposed Crown Prince was utterly disheartened, and at this moment, Ning Yi had already led his troops to break through.
The deposed Crown Prince was unwilling and intended to break out, but Chang Hai forcibly made Shaoning pull the deposed Crown Prince away, while he himself led his soldiers to fight a great battle against Ning Yi for this disloyal, unfilial, and inhumane deposed Crown Prince. After repeated clashes, Chang Hai was covered in blood and surrounded by Gu Yan.
Chang Hai reprimanded Gu Yan for his betrayal, but Gu Yan took out the purse Ning Yi had given him, which belonged to his wife and children. Gu Yan hated; he hated himself for not seeing through the Crown Prince's true colors, as they were the murderers of his wife and children! Eighteen years ago, Gu Yan was forced to surrender, but now he only wished to act according to his own conscience. Shaoning and Ning Yi supported each other and arrived outside Chenming Palace. Before they could leave, their path was blocked by arrows.
