Clearly, the Third Prince already knew who killed his father.
But he didn't dare point the spear at Ji Changsheng.
He fixed a ferocious gaze on the Empress instead.
If he couldn't bully Ji Changsheng, were you saying he couldn't bully you?
The Empress was his successor and younger than the Third Prince. After her entering the palace, she had not given birth to a child.
If the Empress had descendants, her position might not have been handed over to her.
It was precisely because the Empress had no kin and came from a humble background, hence was no threat to any factions. Coupled with her understanding of her place, all these factors led her to become the Empress of Sheng Country.
The Third Prince must not have imagined that this seemingly harmless woman would now jump out to compete for the throne with him.
The Empress seemed to be flustered by the Third Prince's imposing questioning and looked to Ji Changsheng for help.
Ji Changsheng did not disappoint the Empress.
