Yu Wan'er, lying on the ground, looked on incredulously and roared hysterically:
"How dare you kick me? Who do you think you are, to treat me like this?!"
Seeing Yu Shuang's condescending and disdainful attitude.
Only then did he realize what Yu Shuang had just said, and a feeling of grievance and humiliation welled up inside him for no reason.
"I didn't do it on purpose! It was that assassin who harmed me! ...As long as I kill all those servants and guards and shut them up, I won't have disgraced the Prince's Mansion and the Yu family!..."
Yu Shuang glanced around the courtyard; it was originally the bedroom of the original owner, the principal wife.
As soon as this guy arrived, he started whispering sweet nothings in the other man's ear, making the original owner lose face and get kicked out.
She gave a cold laugh.
"Murder to silence witnesses? A prince's mansion under the emperor's nose was robbed, and the prince was deposed. Such a momentous event could no longer be concealed. Now, the entire capital probably knows about the major events that happened at the Prince Ning's mansion, including your scandalous affairs. Can you kill them all?"
Yu Wan'er was struck dumb.
Unwilling to accept reality… his gaze suddenly sharpened, and his trembling hand pointed at Yu Shuang:
"It was you, wasn't it?! That assassin from last night must have been connected to you, right?! You have such a wicked heart, you deserve to die a horrible death..."
Yu Shuang gave a wink to the maid beside her, who understood and slapped her without saying a word.
"Smack!"
Someone was slapped and went crazy.
"Your Highness, please don't make baseless accusations. The assassin from last night was clearly from an enemy country seeking revenge."
Yu Wan'er refused to believe it no matter what, but her intuition told her that it was related to the woman in front of her.
He glared at Yu Shuang with venomous eyes, as if he wanted to devour her.
His face was full of resentment and dissatisfaction.
He continued his unreasonable tirade, and only stopped after receiving another slap.
"Now that things have come to this, do you still not understand the situation? You think you can drag me down with your baseless accusations? How naive. ... Guards, lock this disgraceful wretch in the woodshed and confine him to his quarters. He shall not be released without my order."
Yu Wan'er was not about to accept this. She was so angry that her face twisted, and she questioned Yu Shuang, saying that she had no right to do so.
"I am the prince's most beloved person, I am the legitimate daughter of the Yu family, and I didn't even want your position as princess consort. You are nothing but a substitute, what right do you have to do this?!..."
Then he was slapped a few more times by two maids and became obedient.
To avoid physical pain, stop shouting.
He was forcibly locked in the woodshed, where he cried out to heaven and earth in vain.
...
When Mu Yanzhou woke up, he felt as if the sky had fallen.
Ah! His legs…
Does this mean he's going to go back to the days when he couldn't take care of himself?
No, he has finally emerged from the abyss into the light; he has a long and bright future ahead of him…
How could I willingly fall back into darkness?
"Guards! Guards! Quickly, fetch the miracle doctor! Fetch the miracle doctor!..."
However, he was met with silence.
For some unknown reason, none of his trusted guards were by his side.
Several of the attentive maids and stewards have also disappeared without a trace.
The room was empty except for him.
This scene was so familiar; dead memories resurfaced, and I was instantly transported back to a few years ago.
That helplessness, that despair…
He reflexively called out someone's name.
"Yu Shuang! Yu Shuang...get your ass in here!"
Subconsciously, he felt that the woman couldn't possibly abandon him.
He was so fearless in front of that woman.
However, no one came even after he called for a long time.
Suddenly his expression changed.
A certain place could no longer hold back and released a torrent of fluid.
An indescribable stench permeated the air.
Mu Yanzhou felt like dying.
ah!
Damn it! They all deserve to die!!
Yu Shuang!
You deserve to die too!!
Why aren't you by my side at this crucial time?!
The unspeakable humiliation almost made his head burst, making him increasingly irritable.
Unfortunately, all I could do was lie in bed, filled with impotent rage.
...
A servant announced that Vice Minister Yu had arrived at the Prince's residence to inquire about the Prince's injuries.
Yu Shuang received this nominal father in her capacity as a princess.
When Vice Minister Yu didn't see the daughter he wanted to see, his expression turned somewhat displeased.
Why hasn't Wan'er come to see me?
Yu Shuang said dismissively:
“She has brought shame to the Prince’s Mansion and the Yu family. She has no face to see Father. Didn’t Father come to see the Prince? I will take Father to see the Prince now.”
Minister Yu suppressed his anger.
"No rush. Shuang'er, I have something I want to say to you alone."
His tone softened, as if he were speaking frankly, unlike his previous serious, cold, and ruthless manner.
Yu Shuang got goosebumps from that "Shuang'er".
It was rare for the original owner's father to show such a gentle side to his daughter.
Something unusual must be going on.
Sure enough, that's what happened next.
Minister Yu spouted a lot of nonsense about the family sharing honor and disgrace and sisters working together.
Yu Shuang grew impatient and directly interrupted the prelude someone had laid out.
"Father, you should speak frankly."
Minister Yu simply stopped beating around the bush.
"Back then, we made you the legitimate daughter and had you marry into the Ning Prince's mansion in place of Wan'er, which was essentially stealing Wan'er's wealth and status. We also received favors from the Yu family and Wan'er. Now that Wan'er's reputation is damaged, you, as her older sister, should help her."
Yu Shuang raised an eyebrow slightly, eager to know what shocking things this shameless old man could say.
"What does Father intend for me to do to help Wan'er regain her reputation?"
Vice Minister Yu's expression turned solemn.
"Just announce to the outside world that the person who shared the prince's bed that day was you, not Wan'er. Wan'er is kind-hearted and will surely ensure that you live a worry-free life in the prince's mansion for the rest of your life."
