"Nineteenth sister came to visit so late at night, and it seems that she has bad intentions." Yun Yuan's voice was cold and contained a hint of sarcasm.
Yun Shijiu's heart tightened, and he inexplicably had the illusion that he had been sentenced to death, and his body trembled involuntarily.
She gritted her teeth, mustered her courage and said loudly, "Sister Seventeen, stop pretending. You have an affair with another man and even sneaked him into the mansion. How can you be worthy of His Royal Highness the First Prince?"
Her tone was filled with anger and accusation.
The people outside stopped pushing and shoving, and the maids and servants rushed in and turned Yun Yuan's bedroom upside down, but they found nothing.
Yun Shijiu broke out in a cold sweat: "Impossible, I clearly saw it..."
"What did you see?" Yun Yuan sneered, "To accuse the princess of having an affair is a capital offense. Come, send her to the Dali Temple."
Death penalty! Yun Shijiu panicked: "No - I didn't slander him, you must have hidden him."
"What happened?" A large group of people came over holding torches, led by Wenren Yan and Wenchang Bo, and followed by the Dali Temple Minister with a righteous look on his face.
Yun Yuan looked aggrieved and tears started to fall.
"Your Highness, you've arrived just in time. Nineteenth Sister has accused me of having an affair. A girl's reputation is so important. I think I'd rather die!"
Even though he knew that Yun Yuan was pretending, Wen Renyan still felt a pain in his heart when he saw her like this, and his eyes pierced Yun Shijiu fiercely.
"Send someone to search the princess's room. If Yun Shijiu is found guilty of slander, he will be thrown into the Dali Temple's death row."
Yun Shijiu's body was shaking even more violently, with large drops of cold sweat dripping down her face. However, there was still a glimmer of hope in her heart, hoping that the Crown Prince and the people from the Dali Temple could find the man she saw.
However, she was destined to be disappointed.
"Your Highness, we've looked everywhere, but there's no one in Princess Renhui's room."
Wen Renyan sneered: "How dare you spread rumors about the princess without any evidence. Come, take this woman away."
Yun Shijiu panicked and asked Wen Changbo to save her. Seeing Wen Changbo looking away, she asked Yun Yuan for help.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" She cried and kowtowed to Yun Yuan. Even though her forehead was bruised, she didn't care about the pain. Her heart was filled with fear. "Seventeenth Sister, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me. I won't dare to do it again."
Yun Yuan's delicate body was trembling slightly, as if she was extremely frightened. Her beautiful face had lost its color and looked pale and weak.
Wen Renyan quickly stepped forward and hugged Yun Yuan tightly in his arms. At the same time, he turned around and shouted at the entourage behind him:
"What are you still standing there for? Drag her away to me!
"yes!"
The attendants ignored Yun Shijiu's wailing and dragged her away like a dead dog. Wen Changbo dared not say anything, and the atmosphere was cold.
The other people from the Bo Mansion who came over after hearing the noise looked at Yun Yuan with fear. They had never realized as clearly as at this moment that Yun Shiqi was really different.
Wen Renyan looked at Yun Yuan, the coldness in his eyes melting like spring snow, and he said gently, "You should have a good rest. If you have anything, let Yang Chun Baixue send me a message. I am your future husband. To humiliate you is to humiliate me."
Yun Yuan nodded slightly and replied, "Okay."
"I really hope to marry you soon." Wen Renyan was frightened after what happened tonight.
After everyone left, Wenchangbo looked at Yun Yuan with a complicated expression.
"What happened tonight? Why would Nineteen frame you for no reason?"
Yun Yuan said coldly, "If Father has anything to say, he can ask the Crown Prince, or ask Nineteenth Sister in the prison. I believe that in order to save her life, she will tell you everything without reservation."
"You know I can't help her." Wenchang Bo seemed to have aged several years. "She's also a poor child. Can you ask His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for mercy and forgiveness?"
"Are you joking, father?" Yun Yuan was clearly smiling, but Wen Changbo felt a chill.
"She was the one who started it with evil intentions. She wanted to destroy me, so I destroyed her."
"But the price is too high."
"Did she ever think this would be the outcome when she decided to frame me?" Yun Yuan asked, "They say a poorly educated son is the fault of his father, and the same goes for a daughter. Since your father is so worried about Nineteen, why don't you go to jail and take the punishment for her?"
"How can that be?!" Wenchang Bo jumped up and down, fearing that Yun Yuan would really do this. He immediately backed off and said, "Father, I'm just suggesting it. If you don't want to, then don't. Nineteen can handle it however they want."
After saying that, he didn't dare to stay any longer and left the yard in a hurry.
Wenren Yan climbed over the wall with familiarity, landing lightly on the ground with his clothes fluttering.
"I just caught someone in your yard. After interrogation, I found out he's a remnant of the White Lotus Sect in Yanzhou. Be careful these days. I'll arrange for someone to protect you."
Yun Yuan hugged his waist and nuzzled into his arms: "Your Highness, how are you going to deal with him?
"Kill him." Wen Renyan's tone was cold and resolute, his eyes flashing with a bloodthirsty glint. "Anyone who dares to hurt you must die, not to mention that he is a remnant of the White Lotus Sect who instigated the people to revolt."
His voice was deep and powerful, carrying an unquestionable majesty and murderous intent.
Yun Yuan trembled slightly, and her body involuntarily shrank into Wen Ren Yan's arms.
Wen Renyan seemed to sense her fear, pursed his lips, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I scared you."
Yun Yuan shook her head: "Fortunately, His Highness is here, otherwise I really don't know what would have happened."
Wen Renyan hugged Yun Yuan tightly and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here, no one can hurt you."
His eyes were full of care and love, as if she was the most precious treasure in the world.
After a while, Wen Renyan looked down at her and asked, "But I'm curious, how did you find out there was someone in the room?"
