As the Crown Prince, Li Jixian had his own small team, headquartered in East Palace. Although it was not as large-scale as the Emperor’s Imperial Court, it was complete with all essential functions.

All of this required a lot of money to maintain.

There were many places where the Crown Prince spent money. Taking a little extra during additional assignments was already a customary matter.

However, revealing this evidence at such a sensitive moment was undoubtedly pouring oil on the fire.

Various misdeeds, countless pieces of evidence.

The Emperor’s face turned ghastly pale as he examined them.

The recent unrest amongst the people, combined with the evidence presented in the Imperial Court today, became the final straw that broke the Emperor’s back.

After looking over the evidence with a gloomy expression, the Emperor said, “The Cabinet must deliberate on this matter.”

Despite his poor tone and expression.

In the end, he had given in.

Both Jiang brothers breathed a sigh of relief.

It was not that they were worried they couldn’t succeed, but rather that they hoped to avoid unnecessary complications.

As Jiang Ruobai let out a sigh of relief, he inwardly sneered at the Emperor’s hypocrisy.

Although the Emperor had long harbored dissatisfaction toward Li Jixian, he wanted to put on the appearance of a benevolent ruler and father. He had to show that he was being forced into a corner, and only then would he consider deposing the Crown Prince.

Too hypocritical.

Was it really that important to maintain a good reputation as a wise ruler throughout the ages?

Jiang Ruobai glanced at the throne, and the Emperor had already left with a grim face.

However, no one cared.

The one who angered the Emperor wasn’t them, after all.

It was said that the Emperor hadn’t visited the Harem for several days now.

Again, this didn’t concern anyone.

At the Emperor’s age, whether he favored the Harem or not didn’t matter anymore.

Next, the Cabinet began discussing and deliberating on the resolution to abolish the Crown Prince step by step, formally and systematically.

While this matter sounded simple, implementing it was actually quite complex and cumbersome.

As the Prime Minister and a Grand Scholar of the Cabinet, Jiang Ruobai was naturally involved in the discussions.

The deliberation went on for more than two months before a rough outline was formed.

The Emperor reviewed it, and though his face was unhappy, he didn’t reject anything outright.

This meant that the Emperor had agreed to depose the Crown Prince.

The matter was as good as settled.

During this period, Jiang Ning’s leg recovery progressed rapidly and steadily.

By spring, two and a half months later, she was able to walk around the courtyard with the help of a maid.

Going out in a wheelchair was even less of a problem.

Experiencing the sensation of walking again, Jiang Ning felt it was novel, refreshing, and joyful.

After walking for a while, her forehead began to sweat slightly.

Huang Ying handed her a handkerchief to wipe the sweat away, saying, “Your Highness, let’s go back and rest. You’ve walked quite a bit today. Doctor Yu said you shouldn’t walk too much at this stage.”

“It’s fine.”

“Your Highness, there’s no need to rush.” Chunlai smiled. “Just give it some more time. Once you’re completely recovered, you can walk as long as you like. We won’t stop you.”

Jiang Ning laughed in response: “Alright, let’s go back.”

Seeing her walk back to her room with only Huang Ying’s help, the maids and servant women looked on with delight.

Only Xiaoman crouched in the corner, munching away.

Jiang Ning asked, “Xiaoman, what are you eating? Hiding in the corner, you look like a rat.”

Chunlai said, “She’s nibbling on a big radish. She doesn’t mind the spiciness and has been munching away all morning. I don’t know how she has such a big appetite.”

Jiang Ning said, “Call her over.”

During the time she had been recuperating, Jiang Ning had not left her room. Gentle and nimble maids like Huang Ying, Chunlai, and Dongxie had attended to her, and Xiaoman was seldom needed..
