Chapter 11: It's the elder sister who is harming her



A draft blew through the hallway, and Hua Yuanzhao sneezed violently. Yesterday's events flashed through her mind like a revolving lantern, and she still felt it was unreal.

"Miss, what should we do?" Fuling's eyes were red and tears were falling.

Hua Yuanzhao's eyes were gloomy and he said nothing.

Han Yunlan had just had a conflict with her yesterday. If something happened today, Hua Yuanshan would definitely put the blame on her. There was no point in panicking now. She could only go and find out what was going on.

Slowly exhaling, Hua Yuanzhao looked up at the little crybaby.

"Don't cry. First tell me where you found the body? Where is it now?" Hua Yuanzhao asked.

"It seemed like we were halfway up the mountain. I heard from the young monk that the Dali Temple had already accepted the case and the body was still there, unmoved." Fuling spoke hesitantly, with a tearful tone in her voice.

Hua Yuanzhao lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his leg and was about to walk out.

She wanted to see how Hua Yuanshan was going to accuse her!

Just as Hua Yuanzhao was about to reach the door, the half-open door was kicked open, and the shabby door panel broke into pieces.

The man's arrogant voice followed: "Where is Miss Hua going? Are you going to escape for fear of being convicted?"

Seven or eight soldiers rushed into the room and blocked the door with ferocious looks. The leader had an evil look on his face, and his gaze was fixed on Hua Yuanzhao.

"You are going too far! This is my lady's boudoir!"

Fuling was so angry that she was shaking all over and opened her arms to block Hua Yuanzhao.

How could her young lady let a group of men see her when she hadn't changed her clothes or washed up yet? If this matter got out, how would her young lady deal with it?

Seeing the maid protecting her master, Song Zuo smiled contemptuously. His eyes passed Fuling and fell on Hua Yuanzhao's fat body. He said with disdain, "Boudoir? I think it's a pigsty?"

You're just an unpopular fat pig, and you think you're some rich lady?

Song Zuo waved his hand and shouted to his men, "Catch this murderer!"

Murderer? Hua Yuanzhao stood up suddenly, looked at the approaching soldiers and shouted coldly: "The matter is not clear yet, what right do you have to say that I am a murderer!"

"Miss Hua is resisting stubbornly. Are you trying to force us to use force?" Song Zuo said without raising his head. It was just a pig. He felt disgusted when he looked at it for even a second!

Seeing the soldiers approaching, Hua Yuanzhao did not retreat but instead stepped forward to stand in front of Fuling.

"You want to use force? I'm the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who dares to touch me!" Hua Yuanzhao was imposing.

Fuling beside him hurriedly added: "My lady is the imperial concubine of the Third Prince!"

"Princess?" Song curled his lips in sarcasm. Who in the whole capital didn't know how much the Third Prince wanted to get rid of this marriage?

"As long as the imperial decree to cancel the engagement has not been issued, I will be the third prince's fiancée!" Hua Yuanzhao said slowly, his cold eyes sweeping over the soldiers who were ready to move, his red lips opening and closing with a cold voice.

"To offend me is to offend the royal dignity! To touch me? How many heads do you have!" Hua Yuan Zhaojin asked coldly, and really frightened the soldiers.

Seeing this, Song Zuo laughed in anger. He glanced at the soldiers who dared not step forward and said angrily, "It was His Royal Highness the Third Prince's intention to arrest you and question you!"

"So what?" Hua Yuanzhao sneered, "Are you the third prince?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the soldiers around him lowered their heads and dared not look anymore.

It was true that the Third Prince ordered them to arrest someone, but he didn't say that they could see the future Third Prince's wife wearing only a middle dress! If this is investigated...

Seeing the cowardly look of the person he brought with him, Song Zuo was furious. He said hello three times, then suddenly strode forward and raised his hand to catch the man.

Others are afraid of Miss Hua, but he is not!

Seeing that the man's hand was about to fall on his shoulder, Hua Yuanzhao suddenly raised his hand. Song Zuo felt his hand go numb and he suddenly lost strength.

Taking the opportunity to grab Song Zuo's wrist, Hua Yuanzhao used some clever strength in his hands and easily dislocated Song Zuo's arm joints.

A pig-slaughtering howl rang out, and Hua Yuanzhao suddenly let go, kicked the man to the ground, and he fell sprawled out.

"Just arrest him, but don't use lewd hands!" Hua Yuanzhao quietly put away the golden needle, lowered his hands and sneered.

"Take your leader outside and wait! I need to change my clothes!"

The sudden change happened in a flash. The soldiers were dumbfounded and hurriedly helped the wailing Song Zuo out of the door.

After Hua Yuanzhao changed his clothes and went out, he glanced at Song Zuo who was stopped by the soldiers, with a contemptuous smile on his face.

"Lead the way?"

Song Zuo still had one arm hanging down. He clenched his back teeth and almost squeezed out the word "OK" from between his teeth.

The morning dew had not yet faded, and Hua Yuanzhao felt that his clothes were thin when he was walking in the mountains. When he arrived at the place, he heard loud crying sounds like calling a soul from a distance.

It was still dark, but Prime Minister Hua and the Third Prince Gu Changsu were all there, and Hua Yuanshan was also kneeling on the ground crying pitifully.

When she saw Hua Yuanzhao coming, her crying voice immediately rose eight octaves, but her tears never fell.

"My elder sister has such a cruel heart! Although my cousin and my elder sister have a grudge, it is only because my cousin is young and naive that she has made my elder sister unhappy!"

"My cousin is kind-hearted and has never held any ill will towards my elder sister! Why did my elder sister have to kill her so cruelly!" Hua Yuanshan covered her face with a handkerchief, crying and wailing.

"Hua Yuanzhao, if you still have any conscience, you can sacrifice your life to preserve your last reputation." Prime Minister Hua said in a deep voice, unable to bear to look at her any longer.

The third prince Gu Changsu, who also served as the Junior Minister of Marble, looked at him with disgust upon hearing this.

This woman is difficult to deal with, but how can she be so vicious! She can even destroy someone's innocence and kill someone. Is there anything she dare not do?

"In this case, I will just save face for the Prime Minister's Office." Gu Changsu said indifferently: "If the real murderer commits suicide, I will seal the case and not hold a public trial."

This is also a customary rule agreed upon by wealthy families to preserve their reputation.

He said this without mercy, as if the person in front of him was not his fiancée at all, but an irrelevant evil person.

Hua Yuanzhao's gaze swept over these people one by one. The sunlight fell on her, but she only felt a biting cold.

Her father, sister, and fiancé, all her blood relatives, and her engaged fiancé, everyone wanted her to die!

It seemed as if the world would be at peace if she died!

"Third Prince." Hua Yuanzhao's gaze finally fell on Gu Changsu. She spoke slowly, with only coldness and alienation in her tone.

"There is no witness and no physical evidence. How can you be sure that I was the one who killed him?" Hua Yuanzhao sneered and his voice slowly faded away.

"Is the trial in the Dali Temple just a child's play?" Hua Yuanzhao questioned.

Gu Changsu's face suddenly darkened, and he was about to speak when Hua Yuanshan spoke first.

"You must have killed him!" Hua Yuanshan cried to everyone, "Have you forgotten? When I found my cousin in the woodshed yesterday, she said it was my elder sister who was killing her!"

Everyone suddenly realized and looked at Hua Yuanzhao with increasingly unfriendly eyes.
