Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Qin Zhenzhens words held undeniable truth. Those around her desired the same, yet none dared to voice their thoughts openly.

Now that Qin Zhenzhen had spoken, a hushed discussion enveloped the group, the air thick with unspoken words. Conversations were reduced to mere whispers.

As the situation threatened to spiral out of control, the Crown Prince intervened.

Theres no need for further arguments. This mishap is my responsibility. His words brought an immediate hush upon the gathering.

The brothers of the two ladies turned expectant gazes towards the Crown Prince, yearning for a satisfactory explanation.

These young masters were not as naive as they seemed. They could already discern the likely reason for the cruise s.h.i.+ps broken railing.

Their sister had rarely interacted with the fifth princess, but their sudden closeness in the past two days had raised suspicions. It was apparent their sister had been manipulated by the fifth princess.

The motives behind the fifth princesss actions also puzzled these individuals. Being over seventeen, it was surprising that she had yet to choose an imperial son-in-law. Su Bin, the new Primus, had demonstrated remarkable talent and literary prowess, achieving the tenth place in the capital examination.

Given his abilities, it was no surprise that the fifth princess was interested in him. To achieve her goal, eliminating Mrs. Su was necessary. Humiliating their sisters was a means to tarnish Mrs. Sus reputation, hoping to drive a wedge between her and Su Bin, ultimately leading to their separation and divorce.

Mrs. Sus fortune, unfortunately, seemed to defy all odds. What was truly unfortunate was that their younger sisters had become p.a.w.ns in the fifth princesss game.

The audacity of the fifth princesss actions strongly implied that the Crown Prince supported her in this endeavor.

Given the Crown Princes stance, it appeared he intended to clean up the aftermath for the fifth princess, as any thorough investigation would inevitably implicate him.

As expected, His Highness the Crown Prince initiated self-reflection.

I invited all of you to the garden and should have ensured a range of safety measures, including a thorough inspection and repair of the cruise s.h.i.+ps safety equipment.

However, after giving the order, I regrettably failed to personally inspect it, leading to the neglect of the damaged railing by those responsible.

This negligence ultimately resulted in the accident, causing the two ladies to fall into the water.

Thus, Mrs. Su is right; this incident transcends questions of blame and rests squarely on my shoulders.

My guards, while well-intentioned, may have acted too hastily during the rescue, inadvertently neglecting their duty to protect the ladies privacy.

Everyone is aware that individuals who fall into the water often act out of panic, resorting to desperate measures to cling to anything they can.

Accidentally tearing clothing is a consequence of their panicked actions.

Regardless of how much we debate and argue, we cannot undo the mistakes that led to this tragic event.

I bear a deep sense of responsibility for the tarnished reputation of these two young ladies and the potential impact on my future search for in-laws.

To compensate for this loss, I am prepared to welcome both ladies into the royal residence.

What?

To everyones astonishment, the Crown Prince made an unexpected decision in the pursuit of reconciliation.

This was certainly an unforeseen turn of events for Qin Zhenzhen.

Although it was an unconventional solution, the Crown Princes decision could offer the best resolution for all parties involved. It would serve to silence the affected ladies and provide a satisfactory explanation to their fathers and brothers..
