Upon learning that Qingmu is the Eldest Princess of Qian, the soul of the Eight Trigrams in Chen Tang ignited instantly.
"What exactly happened back then?"
Chen Tang asked, "Why did Emperor Qian cast His Holiness into the Celestial Prison? Was it really because the Dugu Clan was executed and he was venting his anger?"
Qingmu's expression darkened as she replied, "After my mother's death, my older brother quarreled with my father over this incident. He finally enraged our father, who cast him into the Celestial Prison, planning to execute him."
"A tiger, fierce as it is, does not eat its own cubs. How could Emperor Qian bear to kill his own son?" Chen Tang asked with furrowed brows.
Qingmu remained silent and said, "Actually, my elder brother could never understand many of our father's actions and had often tried to advise him, only to incite his wrath each time."
