The Emperor frowned and said solemnly, "So what you mean to say is that someone has made a move against Prince Cheng's Heir?"
The Crown Prince said, "Father, please investigate thoroughly, this matter is absolutely true!"
If he completely overturned what he said before, it would be the crime of deceiving the Emperor. Now he admits half, but refuses to admit the other half, just to pass this hurdle for now.
The Emperor waved his hand and said, "This matter is fraught with suspicion. Now, since there is no conclusive evidence, leave the relevant persons, and the rest can leave!"
The Crown Prince refused to admit, and with Prince Li and Prince Liang's testimonies, plus the investigation results from the three departments, seemed confusing on the surface. But which of the ministers isn't an astute person?
At this moment, the Emperor let the ministers retire, which rather relieved them. It's better not to get involved in such matters. Knowing too much may not be a good thing.
