Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Upon hearing Yu Yunxi’s words, the expressions of the heads of the Yang and the Ding families were naturally unsightly.

Even Chu Zai’s expression was not very good.

After all, it was obvious that Yu Yunxi was deliberately mocking them. Lord Yang and Lord Ding could only brace themselves and step forward before they kneeled on the ground. They had heard that Yu Yunxi and the King of Youshan had joined forces to kill the giant snake in the forest earlier. Although they knew the Emperor hated Yu Yunxi, they could not be disrespectful to Yu Yunxi. After all, the Emperor Emeritus was still alive. For this reason, the duo hurriedly apologized.

“Eldest Princess, my daughter is insensible and said such words. I apologize to you on her behalf. Thank you for saving her in the forest.”

Ding Qing was very unhappy. She ran over and tried to pull her father up as she said, “Father, you…

“Shut up!” Lord Ding bellowed. After all, it would be deadly for them to meddle in the imperial family’s affairs. It was clear to him that his daughter was being used by someone.

Alas, Ding Qing did not feel like she had done anything wrong and grew even angrier. Her father had always doted on her, but he scolded to her today because of Yu Yunxi. With this, she was even more determined to expose Yu Yunxi’s true colors to everyone.

Ding Qing gritted her teeth before she turned around and kneeled on the ground. She said loudly, “Your Majesty, there’s no doubt that the Eldest Princess tried to kill the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince. She also deliberately drew blood from the Third Princess and the Fifth Prince. There’s no doubt that she wants to harm the princes and princesses!”

Chu Zai was in a good mood when he heard this. After all, he had been thinking of ways to make things difficult for Yu Yunxi when Ding Qing presented him with an opportunity. He looked at Yu Yunxi and asked, “Oh? Yu Yunxi, do you admit to these crimes?”

“Your Majesty, I do not admit to these crimes,” Yu Yunxi said, still as calm as ever.

“However, what about Miss Ding’s accusations? I don’t think she’d lie, right?” Chu Zai asked lightly.

Yu Yunxi walked toward Ding Qing and looked down at Ding Qing as she said coldly, “Miss Ding, if the Sixth Princess and Seventh Prince’s words don’t corroborate with your accusations, what are you going to do?”

“That’s impossible! You must be the culprit!” Ding Qing said stubbornly.

In Ding Qing’s opinion, when they arrived, only four people were on the scene:

Yu Yunxi, the King of Youshan, Chu Zhihe, and Chu Yuemu. If Yu Yunxi and the King of Youshan were not the culprits, then who could it be?

Ding Qing was determined to stand up for Chu Zhihe and Chu Yuemu. After all, she had a very good relationship with Chu Zhihe. Most importantly, Chu Zhihe had promised that she would become Chu Yuemu’s princess consort. For this reason, she felt that this was a good opportunity for her to ingratiate herself with Chu Zhihe and Chu Yuemu.

With all these thoughts in mind, Ding Qing raised her head and looked at Yu Yunxi with a determined expression on her face.

Yu Yunxi said casually, “If their words are contrary to your accusations, you have to kneel on the street of the capital for three days and three nights. What do you think?”

Lord Ding hurriedly said, “Eldest Princess, three days and three nights are…”

If Ding Qing kneeled for three days and three nights, she would lose her life. Not only that, but the Ding family would also become a laughingstock.

“What? Does Lord Ding think that it’s so easy to tarnish my innocence and reputation? Do you think anyone can just easily trample on me?” Yu Yunxi questioned sharply.

Lord Ding, who had served in the imperial court for many years, was slightly intimidated by Yu Yunxi’s momentum. He opened his mouth a few times, but no words came out in the end.

On the contrary, Ding Qing was confident that things would turn out well for her so she said loudly, “Okay, it’s a deal. However, Eldest Princess, if what I said is true, you have to apologize even if you’re the Eldest Princess.” “Of course,” Yu Yunxi said with a smile that dazzled everyone.

Ding Qing froze as an ominous feeling rose in her heart.

‘Yu Yunxi is so calm…. Could it be that she really didn’t do it? No, impossible! It has to be her!’

Seeing that the time was ripe, Chu Zai cleared his throat and said, “Bring the Sixtth Princess and the Seventh Prince here.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Not long after, Chu Zhihe and Chu Yuemu, who looked weak, were brought over.

The Empress Dowager spoke first.

“Little Sixth, Little Seventh, do you remember what happened before you fainted? Who hurt you?”

As the Empress Dowager spoke, she looked at Yu Yunxi from the corners of her eyes.

Chu Zhihe and Chu Yuemu massaged their heads. They tried to recall what happened earlier, but their memories were blurry. However, when they saw the Empress Dowager glancing at Yu Yunxi, they understood immediately. It did not matter if they did not remember, but they knew they had to push the blame on Yu Yunxi.

However, before the twins could frame her, Yu Yunxi said nonchalantly, “In order to find out the truth, I’ll have trouble Sixth and Seventh Imperial Cousins to be precise with their words. I suggest both of you write down your account of what happened separately. If you’re going to say that I tried to kill you, please state when and how I injured you, what weapon I used, what ruthless words I said at that time, and so on…”

Chu Zhihe and Chu Yuemu’s expressions turned unsightly immediately.

Yu Yunxi did not give them a chance to spout nonsense, and she continued to say, “It hasn’t even been four hours since you were injured. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to remember these details, right? You have to think carefully before you write it down. Otherwise, others will think that you want to frame me but don’t have time to corroborate your stories in advance…”

Chu Zhihe and Chu Yuemu really could not come up with a good solution. They wanted to accuse Yu Yunxi of harming them, but their memories were very vague. How could they write down the same account of what had happened?

At this time, Yang Yeqi exhorted, “Seventh Prince, hurry up and write down what happened. Write down how the Eldest Princess tried to harm you!”

Chu Yuemu’s expression darkened, and he said reproachfully, “Who are you to tell me what to do?”New chapters are published on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ.net

Yang Yeqi bit her lower lip, feeling extremely aggrieved.

‘I’m only worried about him. Why is he so mean to me?’

Yu Yunxi asked with a smile, “That’s right. Why don’t you hurry up and write it down?”

Chu Yuemu suppressed his anger and said through gritted teeth, “It’s not you who hurt me, Eldest Princess. What’s there for me to write down?”

‘What? The Seventh Prince said that it wasn’t the Eldest Princess who hurt him?’

Many people looked at each other with mixed feelings.

Meanwhile, Chu Zai felt as though his heart was burning with the fire of fury.

‘Is she confident because she really has nothing to do with it? She asked Little Sixth and Little Seventh to write it down, but they couldn’t do it…

Feng Yili raised an eyebrow as he watched the show. He naturally knew that Yu Yunxi had everything to do with Chu Yuemu and Chu Zhihe’s injuries, but Chu Yuemu actually said that she had nothing to do with it.

‘This means that she has done something in advance to guarantee her safety..

The corners of Feng Yili’s could not help but curl up into a smile when he thought about this.

“Your Majesty, I…”

At this moment, Yu Xiaoxiao, who was standing at the side, suddenly spoke up. She did not lose her memories, after all, and she knew what Yu Xiaoxiao had done. She was naturally eager to testify against Yu Yunxi. However, she had just spoken a few words when she realized to her horror that she was unable to speak..
