"Shut up!"

Zuo Yimei gets a headache whenever she sees Xiang Wan.

What did you promise?

Are they helping Hua Wanqing harm their own country?

She's not that stupid!

Also, what's with this bodyguard? Could it be that the master and servant are playing a trick on her, deliberately trying to scheme against her?

If she had known this would happen, she shouldn't have listened to her!

Zuo Yimei was filled with remorse.

But Xiang Wan still smiled brightly at her.

What are you laughing at? Laugh again and I'll knock your front teeth out!

Upon seeing Xiang Wan appear, Hua Wanqing looked puzzled. Who was this?

Xiang Wan didn't keep them waiting too long. She cupped her hands to Hua Wanqing and said, "Please, madam, keep your word and bring our Second Princess here in perfect condition."

What?!

What is she saying?

Zuo Yimei was shocked and could hardly believe her ears.

"Madam, can you make the decision?"

Xiang Wan spoke again. Hua Wanqing looked at Xiang Wan carefully and was sure that she did not recognize her, but she felt that she was quite familiar with her, especially her eyes.

"How dare you! You question our lady!"

The palace maid's words put Zuo Yimei's mind at ease.

But then, it was lifted up again.

What does she mean by that?

If the Second Princess in front of us is an imposter, then where is the real Second Princess?

This person looks exactly like the Second Princess, so how did she know it was an imposter?

Whether it's true or not, denying it is the right thing to do.

She doesn't want to claim this troublesome second princess!

Lord Zuo, don't you think about the future of the Flower Kingdom?

Another piece of paper was handed over, and Zuo Yimei simply stuffed them all into Xiang Wan's hands.

She was too concerned about Hua Guo, which is why she was led by the nose by Hua Wanqing.

Since the head of the secret guards had said that this was not the real Hua Wanqing, she was happy to have some peace and quiet.

Xiang Wan put the paper in her bosom, her expression turning stern. "Since that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless."

He grabbed Hua Wanqing with one hand and dragged her toward the main hall.

The palace servant reacted a beat too slow. By the time he caught up to the front of the main hall, Hua Wanqing had already been dragged to the ground by Xiang Wan.

"Wanqing!"

Qianqiu Jinyu hurriedly stood up from her seat to help Hua Wanqing, but Xiang Wan's next words stopped her in her tracks.

"Your Majesty, is this what you call the Second Princess of the Flower Kingdom? Is it really meaningful to try and fool my Flower Kingdom with a fake?"

Xiang Wan appeared fierce but was actually weak, but Hua Wanqing couldn't hear or speak, lying diagonally on the ground, looking pitiful no matter how you looked at her.

Qian Qiudai was also stunned. In such a short time, the Second Princess was no longer the Second Princess. Wasn't this just deliberately picking a fight?

"Don't talk nonsense! Do you think people from the Flower Kingdom wouldn't know whether she's the Second Princess or not?"

After saying that, Qian Qiudai realized what was going on.

If the people of Huaguo deny the Second Princess to her face, and she says it's a conspiracy, wouldn't she be contradicting herself?

Qianqiu Dai glared fiercely at Qianqiu Jinyu and said in a deep voice, "This one..."

"My name is Hua Wei Nian," Xiang Wan introduced herself.

"Hua Wei Nian, how can you be so sure that this isn't the Second Princess?"

Xiang Wan quickly pulled out three pieces of paper, which were the ones that Hua Wanqing had just written to Zuo Yimei.

A city, as part of the dowry.

They have the army's deployment map of the Flower Kingdom; they'll trade it for cities.

Lord Zuo, don't you think about the future of the Flower Kingdom?

Three sentences, three sheets of paper.

If she were the second princess of the Flower Kingdom, would she really betray her own family like this?

Now, not only Qian Qiudai, but even the envoys who came to observe the ceremony had subtle changes in their expressions.

Such a wasteful second princess, even they wouldn't recognize her!

However, is the army deployment map of the Flower Kingdom really in the hands of the Thousand Autumn Kingdom?

This is getting interesting. What is Qianqiu Kingdom trying to do?

Everyone looked at Zuo Yimei with pity, making her wish she could glue their eyelids shut.

She has never been so humiliated since she was born.

Ever since she met Hua Wanqing, she felt that she had lost all face in her life because of Hua Wanqing.

Fortunately, Xiang Wan is now stepping up, and perhaps her luck will turn around.

"This person is impersonating the Second Princess and intends to seize my Flower Kingdom's cities. She also claims that the Flower Kingdom's military deployment map is in your country's possession. May I ask, Your Majesty, how do you intend to deal with this?"

Deployment map?

Qianqiu Dai frowned. Why hadn't Jinyu mentioned it?

She glanced at Hua Wanqing, then at Qianqiu Jinyu, and understood.

No wonder Jinyu insisted on marrying Hua Wanqing; it turns out it was because of this.

If she really has this thing, she absolutely cannot let the Flower Kingdom take it back.

Having made up her mind, Qianqiu Dai said coldly, "Lord Zuo, what does this mean? It's one thing to be unwilling to give the Second Princess a dowry, but to slander her as not being real? Do you think my Qianqiu Kingdom is easy to bully?"

Qian Qiudai slapped the armrest of the phoenix chair, and immediately guards filed into the hall from both sides, surrounding Zuo Yimei and Xiang Wan, who were standing in the middle of the hall.

Xiang Wan calmly said, "Your Majesty, please calm down. Since your country insists on recognizing her as the Second Princess, I have nothing to say. However, I don't know what Young Master Jin Yu sees in a woman who is both deaf and mute."

Deaf and mute?

The envoys from the Di and Yun kingdoms exchanged glances, finding the situation increasingly amusing.

Huo Yang held his wine cup, took a sip, and his eyes suddenly lit up. He said, "Your Majesty of Qianqiu, as far as I know, the Second Princess of the Flower Kingdom is eloquent and agile. Could it be that Your Majesty poisoned her to make her mute and deaf in order to keep her in Qianqiu?"
