Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In their hearts, many people silently remarked, ‘Last night, your leg was injured, and it was your sister who helped set it. Tonight, your sister was bullied, but you stayed next door and claimed that your leg made it inconvenient to check. But during the day, you went all the way to the Flower Divine Hall without any problem. Didn’t you let the maids carry you there?’
Her white lotus demeanor was evident, but no one mentioned it out loud.
Liu Yan’er continued to speak softly and gently, “1 didn’t witness what happened next door, so I can’t offer any opinions. However, I did hear loud sounds of smashing and hitting. Also…”
Here came the main point!
“After King Dun Yu arrived, Princess Ping’an insulted King Dun Yu for snatching the Crown Prince… Your fiancee. She said that my elder sister is entangled with the Crown Prince again and has cuckolded King Dun Yu…”
“These words were indeed spoken by Princess Ping’an. After that, I heard King Dun Yu’s angry voice, and he hit Princess Ping’an.”
“I haven’t seen any of this personally. I only heard it.”
“Reporting to the Crown Prince, I’ve said everything I know.”
She did not continue to oppose Liu Shimei, but instead, she stepped on Yu Wanqing directly.
Perhaps, this was also within the expectations of many.
Regardless of whether others could understand it or not, Liu Shimei already knew that Liu Yan’er would not stand on Yu Wanqing’s side, so she was assured to let Liu Yan’er speak.
Although Liu Yan’er was an idiot, she was not brain-dead. At this moment, supporting Yu Wanqing against Liu Shimei would not benefit her in the slightest.
Liu Shimei was already engaged to King Dun Yu, which meant she had no chance with the Crown Prince. Yu Wanqing might not have the competitiveness to become the Crown Prince’s Consort, but she could secure a position as a concubine.
So, when choosing between stepping on Liu Shimei or Yu Wanqing, was there really a need to hesitate?
At this moment, Liu Yan’er fully displayed the superiority of her brain cells. She made it clear that she only heard things and did not see them, leaving herself some room to maneuver.
She was still thinking that if Yu Wanqing was lucky enough to survive, she could still get Yu Wanqing to fight Zhang Miaozhen and Miao Linglong!
“Ping’an.” After listening to these statements, Huangfu He’s face turned darker than the bottom of a pot.
The Crown Prince of the Great Shu Dynasty had always been gentle to others, but at this moment, his eyes were filled with hostility. Although his voice was soft, it carried endless pressure.
“Everyone is saying this. Is there anyone falsely accusing you?”
How could Yu Wanqing not know that she had become a pariah everyone wanted to beat?
With so many witnesses, there was no use arguing; she could only admit her mistake!
She knelt on the ground and cried, “Cousin, I was wrong. It was my big mouth! I shouldn’t have casually fabricated things just because I was angry. Please punish me.”
Some couldn’t help sneering and said, “Punishment? Princess Ping’an, aren’t you the one who spread rumors and sowed discord between the Crown Prince and King Dun Yu? Your false accusations have harmed my sister, the future Princess, and tarnished their reputations. Have you ever thought about what my sister would go through? Even if you don’t care about her, have you considered the reputations of the Crown Prince and King Dun Yu?”
Naturally, Liang Yi was the one who said those words.
The two main points were to trample on Yu Wanqing, frame him, spread rumors, sow discord. These two points could put Yu Wanqing to death, and could also pluck Liu Shimei out of the storm!
After Liang Yi finished speaking, Liang Sheng clasped his hands and bowed to Huangfu He, saying, “Crown Prince, this matter is related to my niece. I earnestly request the Crown Prince to send this matter to the Royal Family’s Court for judgment!”
Everyone was shocked.
The Royal Family’s Court of the Great Shu Dynasty was responsible for handling crimes committed by the royal family. Yu Wanqing was a member of the royal family, and the case involved the Crown Prince, King Dun Yu, and the future Princess. It was indeed suitable for the matter to be judged by the Royal Family’s Court.
Once it went to the Royal Family’s Court, there was no way Yu Wanqing could escape!
Not only Yu Wanqing, but also the Yu family behind her…
Could the Grand Princess handle it?
Now, it all depended on how the Crown Prince would choose..
