"Yurong wants to kill you in secret, yet you insist on being out in the open, leaving her with no chance to strike. In this way, you will actually turn the tables and make her lose the first move..." Gu Changsheng knew that asking Yushu to make such a decision at this mont was difficult, so he patiently guided her...
At this very mont, Yushu must et with Queen Yulan of the rmaid People, explain everything clearly, and show Yulan that she has the ability to beco the victor in the succession battle between the two princesses. Only then will Yushu achieve final victory...
Because Queen Yulan of the rmaid People is the final arbiter in this competition!
Whover Yulan favors will beco the future king of the rmaid People!
Yurong’s preemptive actions have already made her pay attention to Yushu, and if Yushu wants to regain an advantage, she must demonstrate her wisdom and courage...
Even though Yulan knows well that the reason Yushu is doing this is because soone advised her from behind, but so what?
A successor who is arduous yet kind-hearted and courageous is certainly better than one who is cruel and bloodthirsty, isn’t it?
"You... you really an it? I can really enter the Royal City openly and avoid Yurong’s every deadly plot?" Hearing Gu Changsheng’s words, Yushu’s mindset shifted slightly...
She has developed the habit of completely trusting Gu Changsheng along the way...
But this ti, Gu Changsheng’s proposal made Yushu feel a bit scared...
This is the Royal City!
The place where Yushu grew up, and also the place that can determine the course of her entire life and decide her life or death!
Yushu is not afraid to die, but she fears that even if she does die, she won’t be able to shake off the label of a traitor and rebel of the rmaid People...
A desperate fight!
Now, all that awaits her is a desperate fight!
"This is the best thod, allowing you to et your mother as quickly as possible!" Gu Changsheng nodded confidently as he spoke...
"Then... then I... I will go!" Yushu hesitated after hearing this, but ultimately Gu Changsheng’s confidence prevailed, and she said firmly, "I will enter the Royal City openly as you said. You’re right; until my mother orders otherwise, I am still the Second Princess of the rmaid People! No one can judge except my mother! Let’s go into the city, see my mother, and ask for her judgnt!"
Speaking of this, Yushu took a deep breath...
There is no turning back after drawing the bow!
She is already outside the Royal City, and if she lingers further, Yurong’s subordinates will eventually discover her whereabouts. By then, even if she wants to appear openly, it will be impossible...
Right now, at least she still has the right to choose, doesn’t she?
"Go ahead, I believe in you, you can do very well! Even under the questioning eyes of everyone, you are still the Second Princess of the rmaid People, show the pride of your Royal Family!" Gu Changsheng encouraged as he looked at Yushu and nodded.
In fact, throughout the journey, Yushu has greatly impressed Gu Changsheng...
This naive and inexperienced young girl, from initially being ignorant and confused, can now stand on her own, all in just a matter of days. Such growth speed even made Gu Changsheng admire her greatly...
Gu Changsheng has never sympathized with the weak, but he respects the strong!
Although the Yushu in front of him has not yet beco strong enough to earn Gu Changsheng’s respect, her determination to change has already won Gu Changsheng’s appreciation...
"I will! I definitely will!" Yushu nodded, turned around decisively, and headed towards the Royal City...
The Royal City of the rmaid People is an enormous Crystal Palace...
Outside are continuous Crystal Palace walls...
The sight of Yushu outside the palace walls naturally caused quite a stir...
The rfolk of the rmaid People have all seen mbers of the Royal Family, and Yushu is no exception. Very quickly, soone recognized Yushu and was so shocked they nearly dropped their jaw...
"Oh my god! Look! Who is that? Isn’t that the Second Princess Yushu?"
"Wasn’t she supposed to have revolted and fled back to East County? Why is she here?"
"I don’t know! Is she here to surrender and confess?"
"Who knows! The entire rmaid People are on edge because of her, yet she shows up here, it’s simply incredible!"
"Oh my god..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
Yushu’s appearance imdiately drew a crowd, and the onlookers continued to grow...
In just a few monts, the news of Second Princess Yushu’s appearance at the city gate spread throughout the entire Royal City...
There was no way around it; this is the underwater world. The way the rmaid People convey information is different from that of the human world, and their speed is unparalleled...
So almost in an instant, the entire population of the Royal City knew!
"Second Princess Yushu of the rmaid People requests to see the Queen Mother. I wish to clear my na under public scrutiny and ask the Queen Mother to deliver justice and give a chance to prove my innocence!"
Standing outside the city gate, Yushu stopped and looked up at the Defensive General atop the gate, speaking each word clearly.
That’s right!
She’s here!
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, she appeared openly and honorably beneath the city gate of the Royal City!
No matter if the general of this gate belongs to Skate, now, everyone knows that Second Princess Yushu is at the city gate of the Royal City. Even if he wishes to make a move, he cannot do so in front of so many people. At this mont, ti and the scene seed to freeze still...
Just as Gu Changsheng said, the entire Royal City is now under Skate’s visible control. The general at the city gate is indeed one of Skate’s n, and he’s already been ordered by Skate to report imdiately upon discovering Yushu’s whereabouts and then organize an execution...
But now...
Looking at Yushu standing straight-backed beneath the city gate, the general beca flustered...
This...
In front of such a huge crowd, even if he had a hundred tis the courage, he wouldn’t dare to execute Yushu!
If Yushu had entered the city in disguise, upon discovery, he could have sent soone to follow her and then find a secluded place to execute the Second Princess quietly...
Of course, this is only under the premise that the Second Princess is in disguise and unrecognizable to the common people. Now...
Now the entire city knows!
The news of the Second Princess’s return has spread throughout the city. How could he act under such circumstances?
"Quick! Go report to the Eldest Princess. The Second Princess has co, and has co openly and honorably; we haven’t had the chance to act!"
The general guarding the city made a decision almost instantly and quietly instructed his subordinate...
"Yes, sir!" The subordinate heard this and dared not delay.
He naturally hurried at the fastest speed to report the matter to the Eldest Princess Yushu...
"Yushu requests an audience with the Queen Mother and seeks an opportunity to prove her innocence!"
anwhile, Yushu continued to stand beneath the city gate, unfazed by the stares of all, straight-backed, and sternly spoke...
She wanted to strive to do her best!
Only by doing her absolute best could she have the chance to see her mother, prove her innocence, and redress the grievances of her wronged subordinates...
Only by striving to do her best could she have the chance to beco her mother’s pride and cease being just a discarded piece...
"Second Princess, your current status is sowhat awkward. Please wait a mont; I’ll send soone to the palace to ask for Her Majesty’s opinion..."
The general saw how challenging Yushu was to deal with and had no choice but to speak...
He was the gatekeeper of the Royal City, ostensibly one of Her Majesty’s n, and Yushu had repeatedly requested an audience with Her Majesty. If he kept delaying without sending the ssage, it would only arouse suspicion...
Fortunately, the Eldest Princess had said that Her Majesty was now quite incapacitated and not much of a threat. Even if he sent soone to pass the ssage, the response might not be what the Second Princess wished...
"Thank you!" Yushu nodded upon hearing the general’s words, responded briefly, and then just stood honorably under the city gate without speaking...
The surrounding people continued to gather...
Moreover, more rmaids were constantly flocking toward this area...
There was no helping it...
It’s been ages since the rmaid People experienced any turmoil, let alone one involving an internal conflict between two princesses. How could the citizens of the Royal City miss such a spectacle?
Of course, they would co to witness the drama!
"Oh my! The Second Princess is requesting to see Her Majesty? She’s committed the severe cri of treason, she’s the traitor and criminal of our entire rmaid People, how can she have the audacity to ask to see Her Majesty? And talk about proving her innocence?"
"But look at the Second Princess’s fearless deanor, it seems like the innocent have nothing to fear, right?"
"What do you an by that? Didn’t the Eldest Princess say the Second Princess marched her troops into the Royal City, intending treason..."
"But that’s just what the Eldest Princess said, Her Majesty never issued a decree to condemn the Second Princess; this ans nothing is concluded, so the Second Princess seeking to prove her innocence is entirely reasonable..."
"Looking at it now, the rumors about the Royal City might not all be true. If the Second Princess were truly guilty, how could she dare to show herself here, and so openly?"
"You’re right, there’s a saying that a guilty heart betrays itself; criminals always show a tad bit of guilt, don’t they? But the Second Princess seems utterly fearless!"
"Isn’t that the case? Compared to the calm Second Princess, I’ve heard so rather unsavory rumors about the Eldest Princess..."
"What rumors? Tell us quickly!"
"I’ve heard that Eldest Princess Skate’s character is not as gentle and innocent as it appears. How long has she been ruling the Royal City? The Eldest Princess has already unjustly executed five or six people. Although the news is well-hidden, my cousin works in the Elder Princess Mansion..."
