"Keep people waiting, my clothes aren't ready yet."

The Crown Princess felt that since she was about to become Empress, there was no need to pretend about some things anymore.

So this time, she deliberately lingered for a long time before slowly walking out of the palace.

As soon as I stepped outside, I saw the little eunuch holding a bright yellow scroll.

The Crown Princess frowned slightly, a bad feeling creeping into her heart.

Why was it not Little Li who came, but a little eunuch she didn't recognize?

However, it's possible that His Majesty has just moved to the palace and has too many things to do, so Li Zi couldn't leave.

The Crown Princess silently comforted herself to calm her unease.

"Greetings, Your Highness the Crown Princess. Please accept the imperial decree."

As the young eunuch approached her, he didn't even offer her a proper bow, but instead spoke coldly.

The Crown Princess was immediately displeased upon hearing this. Since she was about to become Empress, she was going to teach these ignorant eunuchs a lesson today.

"How dare you! What kind of attitude is this!"

The Crown Princess's face was full of anger, and her rebuke was sharp, completely losing the gentle and virtuous demeanor she had previously feigned.

The young eunuch listened to the Crown Princess's reprimand, but showed no panic whatsoever, not even a furrowed brow, and remained indifferent.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess, please receive the imperial decree!"

The Crown Princess wanted to reprimand her again, but Granny Shi, who was standing next to her, quietly tugged at her sleeve and whispered in her ear.

"Your Majesty, please accept the decree first. There's no rush to teach the child a lesson."

The Crown Princess was still angry, but Shi Mama was right, and now was not a good time to vent her anger, so she nodded in agreement.

"Declarate it."

With the help of Granny Shi, the Crown Princess knelt on the ground.

The young eunuch, without looking to the side, slowly unfolded the imperial edict in his hand and read it aloud.

"It is God's destiny, the emperor decreed:

The Crown Princess Liu is cruel and malicious, violating traditional feminine virtues and disgracing the imperial family. She is hereby confined to the Eastern Palace and forbidden to leave without summons, as a warning to others.

The Crown Princess initially thought it was an imperial edict to make her Empress, but... it turned out to be an edict to confine her to her quarters!

What about her position as empress?

"I am the Emperor's first wife and the Crown Princess. How can the Emperor confine me to my quarters at this time!"

The Crown Princess clearly didn't believe it; had the Emperor gone mad?

If she is confined at this time, she will not be able to attend the emperor's enthronement ceremony, which would make the whole world laugh at her as the future empress.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has said that you will always be the Crown Princess, but you will not be chosen as the Empress."

The young eunuch couldn't help but feel a pang of pity as he looked at the Crown Princess's hysterical state.

But then I thought about it again. The Crown Princess dared to use witchcraft to harm people in the palace. It was already merciful of the Emperor to spare her life.

"I want to see the Emperor. I have done nothing wrong. Why is the Emperor doing this? My father cannot stand idly by!"

The Crown Princess, no longer caring about her image, stepped forward, snatched the imperial edict from the eunuch's hand, threw it on the ground, and angrily questioned him.

"Your Highness, the Crown Princess, you should save your energy. When you used witchcraft, you should have thought about this day coming."

As for the Prime Minister, since you, your mother, and the Prime Minister have been expelled from the Liu family genealogy, it's naturally impossible for the Prime Minister to care.

Unless he wants all three hundred members of the Prime Minister's household to be buried with you!

The young eunuch maintained his indifferent expression, but his words sent chills down the spine of the Crown Princess.

"Witchcraft? I didn't do anything. Did Liang Qiuli frame me?"
