The Ninth Prince was framed and fell off his horse during a hunting expedition. From then on, he had to be bedridden for the rest of his life, becoming a disabled man.
After the incident, Concub!ne Xian cried miserably in front of the old emperor, begging him to stand up for the Ninth Prince and give him justice.
Concub!ne Xian had always been good at pleasing the old emperor and had been with him for nearly twenty years. The old emperor still had some fondness for them and their son. He immediately investigated the matter thoroughly and found out that it was the fifth prince who was behind it.
The old emperor was furious, but for the sake of the royal family's reputation he did not expose the matter. Instead, he found another reason to demote the fifth prince and imprisoned him.
At this point, the only adult prince who was saved was the Sixth Prince, who had been ignored because of his illness. The Sixth Prince's door became crowded, but the Sixth Prince himself used the excuse of recuperating from illness to turn away all those who came to visit him.
