Gu Changqing shouted coldly, "Crown Prince, be careful with your words. It is said that both thunder and rain are blessings from the ruler! Are you holding a grudge against His Majesty? Regardless, His Majesty is the father of all the princes, and whatever he does naturally has his considerations! Moreover, the distinction between legitimate and illegitimate children is an age-old principle, unchanging through the ages. How is it that in the Crown Prince's mouth, it has become His Majesty's error?"
"The words the Crown Prince just uttered make the old ministers doubt; is it true, as the Crown Prince says, that His Majesty has been poisoned into a coma? Could it be that you, Crown Prince, have played some trick in this?"
With these words, the veil between them was torn away, bluntly pointing out the Crown Prince's ulterior motives.
Others thought the same but dared not voice it. Hearing Gu Changqing make it public, they looked at him admiringly.
