He turned and addressed the Emperor at the head of the assembly, "Father, you are wise. I am acting out of necessity. As the Crown Prince, well informed by you to guard against the Pingxi General's Residence, having full authority over the affairs related to it, for the stability of the capital and the grand scheme of the court, I temporarily halted the deployment of troops from the Duke Residence to support Nanping. It wasn't my choice, I had no other options. I hope you can forgive me, Father."
