Chapter 130 Framed
The woman burst into tears: "You still dare to say that you are wronged, you killed my daughter, you still dare to say that you are wronged, my poor child, what is the law of heaven..."

Li Daban stepped forward to support the woman, "Princess Lu, the emperor has said that he will never let your young lady die in vain. His Royal Highness is young, and this behavior... You see, the person is gone, so it is useless to talk more. The emperor intends to posthumously designate her as a concubine, and in the future, when the prince succeeds to the throne, he will posthumously confer the title of empress, and pay homage to her according to the queen's etiquette. You say..."

Concubine Lu didn't speak, but Lord Lu said: "It's okay, but His Royal Highness must personally follow the rules of making wives to bury Ruan Ruan. The etiquette must not be sloppy."

Just as the emperor was about to speak, the Ninth Prince said loudly: "Father, I have never done it, and I have been wronged."

Li Daban stepped forward to persuade: "His Royal Highness, the emperor has tried his best to think about you. Are you..."

The Ninth Prince had a look of grief and indignation: "Father, I never did it, I was really wronged."

The emperor looked at him and asked: "You said you were wronged, where were you last night?"

Li Daban said: "His Royal Highness, Jing Zhaoyin asked the concierge of your house. You came back to the house last night at almost three o'clock. You said that you were wronged. Can you tell me where you are?"

He Wei took a step forward and knelt down on the ground: "His Royal Highness did return last night, but he went to attend the appointment of His Highness Eighth. I have been by the Prince's side all the time, and I can testify for him."

The emperor looked at the prince: "Are you sure you want to investigate to the end and prove your innocence?"

The Ninth Prince kowtowed to the ground: "Royal Father, I have been wronged, and I cannot bear this stigma and be wronged for the rest of my life."

Li Daban wanted to go forward to persuade again, the emperor waved his hand, "Come here, Prince Xuanba enters the palace."

The Eighth Prince rushed over not long after, and was taken aback when he entered the Hall of Qinzheng.

"Father." He knelt down and saluted. "I don't know what the father ordered when he summoned his servants."

The emperor asked: "Last night, were you with the prince?"

The eighth prince shook his head: "No, last night, my son and Lin Zongye of Yongle Palace drank together at his house, and he was not with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

The Ninth Prince became anxious when he heard this: "It's not that you sent someone to invite me to wait for you at Yongding Bridge, saying that you have something important to tell me."

The Eighth Prince was stunned for a moment: "Ah? I asked you out, no."

He Wei hurriedly knelt down again: "Your Majesty, forgive me, I didn't make it clear. Yesterday afternoon, a servant said that he was from the eighth prince's mansion, and the eighth prince asked him to deliver a letter to His Royal Highness, saying that he wanted to talk to the prince. His Highness made an appointment to meet at Yongding Bridge, there was something important, so His Highness the Crown Prince and I went to Yongding Bridge, but His Highness the Eighth Prince did not come, His Highness the Crown Prince waited until late at night, no one came to the appointment, and then returned home."

The Eighth Prince looked at the Ninth Prince, and then at all the people in the hall, feeling at a loss.

The emperor asked: "Old Ba, is what he said true? Why did you ask him out, and why didn't you go?"

The Eighth Prince hesitated and said, "This, this..."

The emperor was furious and shouted: "What is this, tell me the truth."

The eighth prince thought for a while: "Prince, I don't know what happened, but to be honest, I really didn't send anyone to ask you out."

The Ninth Prince angrily stepped forward to beat him: "You dare to frame me, how dare you frame me. Thanks to how nice I am to you, how dare you frame me."

The eighth prince held his head: "I'm really innocent, I really didn't ask you out, what's going on here?"
