The Second Prince looked grim.
The Empress' face was livid with anger.
Princess Shouning, puzzled, asked, "Who is trying to harm my Imperial Brother?"
"Besides the Eldest Prince, who else would be brave enough?" the Empress replied through clenched teeth.
After the Second Prince fainted, the first to arrive at the pavilion was the Eldest Prince.
Upon arrival, the Eldest Prince helped the guards untie the rope.
When the guards went to look for the hidden weapon again, it was nowhere to be found.
At that time, no one else had been to the pavilion.
The Empress said with a sigh of relief, "It's fortunate that they didn't directly target you, my child..."
The Second Prince, when suspended, was utterly defenseless.
If the Eldest Prince truly intended to kill him, the Second Prince would have certainly died.
However, the Eldest Prince was naturally cautious.
No matter the reason, the Second Prince dying in Duke Dingguo Mansion would place the mansion under blame.
