The Emperor frowned, "Why do you say that?"
Prince Zhuang's tone was urgent, fearing interruption, he said, "Father, Old Fifth said he hadn't arrived in the Capital City early, and almost a month has passed since the assassination on the street, but he says Huangfu Jingchen is still alive. He must have seen him. If he wasn't in the Capital City early, how could he have seen him?"
Everyone: "..."
Was Prince Zhuang deliberately misinterpreting, or was he willing to pay any price to incriminate Prince Cheng?
Why did everyone hear a different meaning than what he did?
After all, how could he, a murderer, understand the sorrowful and desperate feelings of a father who lost his son? How could he comprehend that it was just a father's self-deception and self-comfort when unwilling to accept such a cruel truth?
