Upon further reflection, it's impossible! Chu Heng is the Crown Prince. Even if he's staying at the Yun residence, he'll have plenty of guards, both overt and covert. How could Wu Xinxin have managed to sneak in?
Did they even take his belt?
impossible!
With that thought, Su Youran felt half relieved.
Wu Xinxin is really courting death.
If things really come to fruition, she could discuss it privately with her grandmother and mother, and perhaps they could soften their hearts and spare her life.
But how could the Yun family bear the crime of harboring traitors in front of so many outsiders?
However, Wu Xinxin didn't think that way. She wanted to make a scene in front of everyone. As long as that young master, whom even the Yun family respected, spoke up, he could save her life.
Oh, not only that, according to that person, it might even guarantee her wealth and status!
Thinking this, she suddenly raised her face, revealing the red marks on her neck, and said triumphantly, "The young master currently living in the Bamboo Green Courtyard of the Yun Mansion is no ordinary person, is he? I have already been intimate with him, and this belt is irrefutable proof. Please, Madam and Madam, bring him out so we can confront him together!"
Madam Su's face turned ashen with rage. "Madam Wu, you come from a noble family, and we kindly advised you to leave the manor to find your own way out, considering your past marriage to the Yun family. But we never expected you to be so shameless! Since that's the case, you're now a traitor. Go to the Ministry of Justice and explain yourself! Guards!"
The two old women were already supporting Wu Xinxin from both sides.
"Take him to the Ministry of Justice!"
"yes!"
Wu Xinxin struggled violently, saying, "No, you can't do this! I'm telling you, I secretly hid that person's private seal! If I can't get back safely today, someone will take the seal and run away!"
Madam Su's heart skipped a beat. Others might not know who this "young master" was, but she knew him perfectly well.
The Crown Prince's private seal has been stolen; this is no small matter!
Seeing the hesitation on her face, Wu Xinxin secretly breathed a sigh of relief. What that person said was indeed true; this young master was definitely not an ordinary person.
His personal seal must be of great importance.
Guo, who always loved to watch a show, said, “Oh dear, he even hid his private seal. That young master is too careless! In my opinion, we should invite him over to explain in person, as a way for our Duke’s Mansion to apologize.”
The young master of the family was staying at the Duke's mansion when he was actually ambushed by a woman. The Duke's mansion should bear the reputation of being negligent in its care, so it is normal for them to apologize.
Madam Yun said coldly, "Since she is a traitor, let the Ministry of Justice handle the trial!"
The Yun family cannot be accused of harboring a rebel.
The servant who was delivering the gift for the young master hadn't left yet. He stepped forward, picked up the belt, and said with a puzzled look, "I recognize this belt."
Wu Xinxin was overjoyed, "You're the young master's person, aren't you?!"
The servant nodded. "Yes. But..."
"You surely recognize this as one of his personal belongings!" Wu Xinxin interrupted him, moving closer to him. "Quickly, go and fetch Young Master Biao! He can't abandon me!"
The servant looked troubled and subconsciously glanced at Su Youran.
Su Youran's heart skipped a beat. Earlier, she had noticed that the servant's expression was strange, and she knew that Chu Heng must have a backup plan. However, at this moment, she was suddenly filled with all sorts of conflicting emotions.
What exactly does Chu Heng mean by this?
He's moved into the Duke's mansion, yet he doesn't reveal his identity. Is he waiting for her to choose him?
Madam Su immediately understood the meaning behind the servant's look. She sighed inwardly, wondering if her precious daughter could escape the Crown Prince's grasp.
She immediately looked at Madam Yun, "Mother is right. The rights and wrongs of this matter are not important. She is a wanted criminal and a traitor, so she should be handed over to the Ministry of Justice for trial!"
After saying that, she turned to the two old women and said, "Take them away!"
Wu Xinxin struggled, saying, "You were able to harbor Shi Wenxia back then and even gave her a way out, so you can't just abandon me! And Su Youran, do you think I don't know how Shi Wenxia died?! Does she have nothing to do with you for harming me?!"
At this moment, the servant interrupted her, cupping his hands in a pleading manner, "Madam, this woman claims to have hidden her master's private seal, a matter of great importance... What do you think...?"
He was speaking to the Su family, but his eyes glanced at Su Youran out of the corner of his eye.
After listening for a while, Madam Lin finally couldn't resist her curiosity and asked, "Who exactly is this young master?"
Why is a private seal such a significant matter?
Su Youran sighed, "Very well, Mother, Grandmother, since it is related to the Yun family and is of great importance, why not invite 'Young Master Cousin' over?"
Mrs. Su was also worried, but seeing that her mother did not object, she had no choice but to nod in agreement.
The others looked at Su Youran with curiosity.
Why does it seem like everyone is waiting for Su Youran, a little girl, to make the decision?
However, when they saw the true face of the "young master" who had entered, everyone suddenly realized what was going on.
It turns out to be His Highness the Crown Prince!
Consort Zhou was a member of the Zhou family and had a cousin relationship with the Yun family.
It's not surprising that the Crown Prince is a cousin of the Yun family.
No wonder they chose to stay at the Yun residence.
This is because my marriage proposal failed last time, so I'm trying to take advantage of my proximity to the source!
Moreover, if the Crown Prince's private seal were lost, it would indeed be a matter of great importance!
When Wu Xinxin saw that the person who came was actually the Crown Prince, she was first shocked, and then overjoyed.
No wonder that person said that the young master living in the Yun family mansion has an extraordinary and noble status!
If I could get his help...
She immediately rushed forward, crying, "Your Highness, even a night of marriage is worth a hundred days of kindness! Please save me!"
Chu Heng flicked his sleeve and instantly floated in front of Su Youran, saying with disgust, "Who are you? What do you mean by 'a night of marriage is a hundred days of grace'? How dare you tarnish my reputation!"
After saying that, he hurriedly explained to Su Youran, "Youran, don't misunderstand, I don't know this woman at all!"
You Ran rolled her eyes, then looked down at the belt on the ground. "She said this was your personal item!"
Chu Heng looked over and winked at the servant.
The servant immediately understood, "Reporting to Sixth Miss, I recognize this item. It doesn't belong to His Highness; it's Eunuch Fuxi's personal belonging."
As Chu Heng came over, Fu Xi, who had been waiting outside, immediately stepped over the threshold and peeked out when someone mentioned him. "Hey, it really is my belt. How did it end up here?"
Wu Xinxin initially didn't believe the servant's words, but upon hearing Fuxi's voice, she immediately turned deathly pale and collapsed to the ground, stammering, "You...you..."
Fuxi only noticed her then, pointing a trembling finger at her, "Oh, you shameless woman, you climbed into our bed for no reason that day... what do you want now?!"
Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly realized that it was not the Crown Prince who had been ambushed, but Fuxi.
Wu Xinxin clung desperately to the last straw, "Impossible! Your Highness, that night it was clearly... I even hid your private seal! It absolutely couldn't have been him!"
She quickly pulled a piece of paper from her sleeve. "Look!"
There is a row of red marks on top.
