Late into the night, deep within the palace.

"Have you investigated everything?"

Emperor Wen looked up at the Shadow Guard who had entered hastily.

"Reporting to His Majesty, everything has been investigated."

The Shadow Guard bowed respectfully, reporting the information they had extracted from the original guards of Bibo Courtyard.

"To imprison him in the Heavenly Prison?"

Emperor Wen slammed the table, enraged, "Such audacity! Without My permission, how dare the Third Prince privately detain the Sixth Prince in the Heavenly Prison? No wonder the Sixth Prince was so frightened that he wanted to die!"

Emperor Wen was seething with anger, breathing heavily.

"Calm down, Your Majesty."

Mu Shun, serving beside him, hurriedly tried to soothe him, "Third Prince probably just wanted to scare Sixth Prince. After all, the late Crown Prince's confidant visited Sixth Prince before his death..."

Emperor Wen lifted his gaze, his eyes sharp as he stared at Mu Shun, "Do you think the Sixth Prince had any involvement in the Crown Prince's case?"

"Uh..."

Mu Shun's heart tightened, and he quickly replied, "This servant does not know."

"Not knowing means it's impossible, right?"

Emperor Wen sneered, "If you were the Crown Prince, would you seek this useless prince to join your rebellion? Could he provide troops or strategize for the Crown Prince?"

To involve the Sixth Prince in the rebellion would be sheer burden!

Anyone with half a brain wouldn't do something so foolish!

Mu Shun was apprehensive but did not dare to respond.

Emperor Wen took a few deep breaths and then looked at the Shadow Guard, "How did the Sixth Prince handle those maidservants in his courtyard after he returned?"

The Shadow Guard replied, "He made them kneel and slap themselves."

"No further punishment?"

Emperor Wen frowned.

"No."

The Shadow Guard shook his head slightly.

"Useless!"

Emperor Wen's face was full of disappointment, "Being bitten by a dog he raised, I even replaced his guards and handed him the cudgel, yet he still didn't dare to kill those vicious dogs! Useless, utterly useless! How could I have given birth to such a wimp..."

Emperor Wen grew angrier the more he thought about it, cursing aloud.

The Shadow Guard and Mu Shun listened silently, not daring to speak.

When Emperor Wen scolded Yun Zheng, it was a father scolding his son; he could say whatever he wanted.

If they dared to call the Sixth Prince useless in front of Emperor Wen, it would be tantamount to insulting Emperor Wen himself.

After venting his anger, Emperor Wen instructed the Shadow Guard, "Take those maidservants out of Bibo Courtyard and beat them to death!"

At that moment, Emperor Wen displayed the ruthlessness of an emperor.

"Yes!"

The Shadow Guard bowed and retreated.

After the Shadow Guard left, Emperor Wen sighed deeply and asked, "Are Madame Shen and the others still kneeling outside the palace?"
