So they fabricated an excuse to invite the man to the Zhu family to play a tune on the qin, and on that paper, a sentence was recorded, one she had whispered secretly to her close confidant.
"Today, His Highness is drunk, this opportunity won’t co again, you cannot bla for scheming like this; all is for the Zhu family’s prosperity and glory for the next hundred years."
But it was false, false, it was all false!
This is a page full of lies, filled with absurdity. Except for the fact that she did indeed visit the brothel at first, the rest was all fake!
Who wants to have her dead?
The Eighth Princess’s face had already turned ashen: "You won’t cry until you see the coffin! You’re being so stubborn, are you implying that my guards are incompetent? Could my right-hand n go to such lengths to fabricate evidence just to fra a small person like you!?"
The Eighth Princess grew angry again and coldly waved Zhu De away. Her eyes revealed sharp coldness: "Drag her down, execute her!!"
Zhu De was montarily taken aback, and her face turned pale in an instant. "No—!!!" She was truly wronged, it was all false!
But who could prove her innocence?
In her panic, she looked at the man kneeling long and unable to rise. The man silently bowed his head, but the corners of his delicate lips slightly curled up, revealing a pure, childlike, comforting smile.
However, this bizarre smile, which didn’t fit the man’s image, fleetingly disappeared!
Among the many present, besides Zhu De, no one else noticed.
"It’s you!" Zhu De scread hoarsely! She pounced on the man, viciously slapping his pale cheek.
The man didn’t dodge or evade, appearing numb, allowing Zhu De to abuse him.
The Eighth Princess’s eyebrows furrowed harshly, "Impudent!"
A teacup shattered, as the Eighth Princess suddenly struck out, hitting Zhu De’s chest. Zhu De spat blood from her mouth, her heart ridians completely broken.
As she fell to the ground, she was still in disbelief.
This man... why did he harm her like this?
What had she done to offend him??
Yet her gaze slowly extinguished, ultimately losing all vitality.
"Are you alright?"
After Zhu De’s death, the Eighth Princess ordered Zhu De’s body to be dragged away.
She looked impassively at the man in white, whose side face was swollen, but whose deanor remained dignified and unyielding.
The man slowly raised his head, "Will the Concubine not do anything to ?" His eyes were hollow.
The Eighth Princess found his deanor amusing. She recalled many past events, when she had not yet devised sches for those matters.
"What disposition do you want to make of you?"
The man appeared wooden: "A Common Person knows his humility and cannot aspire to match soone as noble as you, the Concubine. Besides, the Common Person... has a loved one in his heart!"
The Eighth Princess’s eyebrows furrowed sharply: "What did you say?" Her eyes shot out a nearly tangible killing intent.
But the man acted recklessly, "She and her husband share a deep affection; the Common Person knows this love can only be hidden, never seeing the light of day. But in the Common Person’s heart, she is the only one loved. When the Common Person was lowly, she elevated and appreciated him, creating all that the Common Person possesses now. The Common Person sincerely, is grateful to her!"
The man sighed and closed his eyes. "The Common Person, born with no purity, has waded through mud but is willing to remain pure for her alone. Even knowing that persisting to the end gains nothing, and about the Common Person’s feelings, she has never noticed nor known. But just being able to secretly love her like this, for the Common Person, is already a great fortune in this unfortunate life!"
After his words, the man kowtowed again: "So, I hope the Concubine will allow this!!"
