The owner of this body had previously died from an overdose of drugs, compounded by her already frail health. It was because of this that she was able to cross over and gain a new life. However, now she had died so inexplicably, without even identifying those who framed her. She was unwilling to accept such an end!
Therefore, she would absolutely not die easily! Even if she bore the weight of infamy and was ridiculed by others, she believed that the truth would eventually come to light!
Now, she had to endure! She had to live! She had to live strongly!
At that moment, the sharp edge of the sword was pressing towards Xia Yuhan. She did not retreat but decisively struck out, unexpectedly grabbing tightly onto the sword that Canglong Hui had swung at her.
What a reckless woman!
In that instant, she felt as if her entire body had been torn open, pain causing her steps to falter as she heavily knelt on the ground.
Yet even so, Xia Yuhan showed no intention of letting go.
Blood flowed from the sharp tip of the sword, spilling along her slender fingers! Drops fell onto the ground like lonely red flowers blooming in the cold wind.
She had stubbornly taken Canglong Hui's strike!
Even though her palm was pierced with pain, she merely furrowed her brow and still refused to let go, her gaze fixed intently on Canglong Hui.
"Your Highness, Yu Han is guilty, but not to the point of death! Yu Han has been framed!"
As she spoke these words, an unyielding aura radiated from her, her eyes coldly staring ahead. This caused everyone present, whether kneeling or mounted on horseback, to tremble in shock.
Her voice was not loud but clear enough for those around to hear.
Canglong Hui suddenly withdrew his sword: "Hmph! Such one-sided words, how can this King trust you? Which criminal about to be executed does not claim they have been wronged?"
"Look at yourself, everywhere on your body is evidence left behind after you were with that wild man! This is the best proof! Now you are thrown here at the Chastity Arch, what makes you think you are innocent?"
Xia Yuhan didn't know how to respond. Upon her arrival, she was framed and lost the only thing a woman possesses! When she woke up again, she found herself lying in the bustling city without proper clothing. Even if she jumped into the Yellow River dozens of times, she couldn't wash away this shame...
What should she do? The situation had escalated so much that the people from Xia Manor couldn't possibly remain silent. Now, with no one from Xia Manor stepping forward for her, was she abandoned by the entire Xia Manor?
Hmph! Xia Manor!
A deep hatred flashed in Xia Yuhan's eyes!
At that moment, there was a commotion ahead. Soon, a Middle-Aged Noblewoman, protected by a maid, struggled through the crowd, anxiously heading toward the Chastity Arch.
Xia Yuhan couldn't help but glance at the Middle-Aged Noblewoman, noticing the complex emotions of worry, reluctance, and pity in her gaze...
Is this person the biological mother of this body? Xia Yuhan unconsciously walked toward the Middle-Aged Noblewoman.
As she speculated, the Middle-Aged Noblewoman hurriedly knelt beneath Canglong Hui's horse and affectionately grabbed Xia Yuhan's arm: "Longhui Prince, please spare my Yu Han! Our Yu Han has been framed."
Canglong Hui merely snorted coldly in response.
Although the situation hadn't improved much at this moment, Xia Yuhan felt an immense warmth in her heart. Stunned, she called out, "Mother... Mother, do you believe Yu Han was framed?"
The Middle-Aged Noblewoman held Xia Yuhan and wept: "Mother believes it; of course, I believe our Yu Han."
“Longhui Prince, our Yu Han has truly been framed! Previously, our Yu Han never went out alone and never stayed out overnight. As her mother, I know best whether there are any men involved! This time, Yu Han is absolutely innocent; please believe in Yu Han just this once!”
Canglong Hui had a fierce expression on his face: “Hmph! Madam Xia, you better step aside for This King! Anyone who tarnishes This King's reputation will not be spared! Not even my Consort Wang! Furthermore, in this capital, if you randomly ask anyone, they all know that Xia Yuhan is nothing of worth!”
“Of course, the marriage that your Xia Manor owes to This King is something I will still pursue! Madam Xia, hand over Xia Yuhan for me to deal with, and we can all live in peace from now on!”
Before Xia Yuhan could speak, Madam Xia tightly protected her behind: “No, no, Longhui Prince, please spare my Yu Han! What happened today is all because I failed to raise my daughter properly. If the prince insists on punishing Yu Han, let me take her place! I beg the prince to spare my Yu Han…”
At this moment, Canglong Hui was already too impatient to waste time here and tried to kick Madam Xia away with his horse's hoof.
Upon noticing this, Xia Yuhan felt an even deeper hatred towards Canglong Hui. This prince was clearly a heartless person!
“Mother!” Xia Yuhan suddenly lunged at Madam Xia, throwing herself onto her mother. As a result, Canglong Hui's hoof struck heavily against Xia Yuhan…
In that instant, Xia Yuhan felt as if her entire body was being pierced through. A wave of metallic taste filled her mouth as she was kicked away!
Then came the horrified scream of Madam Xia: “Yu Han!”
However, among the crowd kneeling around them, someone suddenly started cheering: “Longhui Prince eliminates evil for the people! Long live the prince!”
Soon, countless others joined in…
“Eliminating evil for the people! Long live the prince!”
In their eyes, Xia Yuhan was not worth mourning...
Why would you rather believe that prince than her, Xia Yuhan? At that moment, Xia Yuhan felt a sense of despair, but fortunately, the mother of this body's owner believed in her.
However, now that she had been injured, did she still have the strength to keep going?
In the teahouse, Gentleman had been quietly savoring tea and enjoying a leisurely time when he was interrupted by the noise from downstairs. A hint of displeasure appeared on his face.
The steward noticed the slight change in his expression and realized he was angry, quickly stepping forward to say softly, "My lord, it’s quite windy here; we..."
Before the steward could finish speaking, Gentleman suddenly stood up and angrily went downstairs. The steward dared not say much and could only follow behind him.
From earlier until now, their master, who was currently young and accomplished, renowned in the Azure Dragon Kingdom as the Right Chancellor—Jiang Tingyu—had his gaze fixed on Xia Yuhan and had not looked away since.
The steward felt frustrated; before this, no woman had ever caught the eye of the Right Chancellor of the Azure Dragon Kingdom.
The emperor had repeatedly tried to marry his daughter to this renowned and talented Jiang Tingyu, but each time he had politely declined!
Yet now their master had been secretly watching this indiscreet woman for a long time. What was so special about her? The steward couldn't help but pout in dissatisfaction.
Could it be that the princess's status was not as significant as that of this indiscreet woman?
"Right Chancellor Jiang Tingyu pays his respects to Longhui Prince!" As Jiang Tingyu entered Chastity Arch, he instantly became the focus of everyone's attention!
He was dressed in white, casually walking towards Canglong Hui, and wherever he went, he caused a stir—
“Lord Jiang, Lord Jiang…”
“Look, he is our Chancellor! Lord Jiang!”
“Yes, yes! If it weren't for Chancellor Lord Jiang, we common folks would have starved to death long ago!”
“He is truly talented and unmatched! With Lord Jiang, we have food to eat!”
…
Xia Yuhan did not expect that this Jiang Tingyu had such a significant background and was so well-regarded among the people. Could such a prominent figure really be here for her?
Watching Jiang Tingyu, Xia Yuhan felt a bit dazed. She observed his steady steps as he walked towards Canglong Hui, and gazed at this gentleman with red lips and white teeth. Such a man could easily rival an immortal figure, and Xia Yuhan couldn't help but admire him in her heart.
