Han Ye was surprised, "How can that be? Your Highness is the Crown Prince!"
The Crown Prince scoffed, "Shangguan Yun was once the Princess! Did you see our lord father show her any mercy? When he deposed her, he didn't show the slightest bit of compassion. This father of mine is the cruelest and most merciless one, and besides, don't forget, the kings of Ling, Xu, and Li are all covetously eying the position of the Crown Prince. None of my brothers are easy to deal with! If they find even the slightest fault with me, I would face a crushing defeat!"
Han Ye fell silent.
The Crown Prince looked up at the bright moon in the sky and said, "Ye'er."
Han Ye bowed, "Your Highness."
The Crown Prince said coldly, "I want him to never see tomorrow's sunrise."
...
In the Imperial Palace, the Little Princesses, after causing a stir all day, finally came to rest.
The Emperor's Sleeping Palace regained its usual tranquility.
