Reborn: Femme Fatale First Daughter-Chapter 693: Who Will Take the Blame

The two men were brought here by the Sixth Princess from the outside. They entered the manor together with the male guests. On the day when Princess Caifeng moved in, the Sixth Princess came to pay her respects. At that time, she paid special attention to the lake and pretended to be casual to ask about the situation of the lake. Then she knew that there was only one wall between the rooms for women and men.

The next thing was easy to deal with. One of the two men stayed outside pretending to be You Yuecheng and got entangled with Ling Mingyan while the other entered the room early and waited for Mo Xuetong to go there so as to ruin her reputation.

Consort Xuan had a private meeting with a man, and Marquise Mingguo Duke was entangled with a man in disheveled clothes. Consort Yan suddenly felt uncomfortable and almost had a miscarriage. So many things happened all of a sudden. None of these people were willing to suffer losses. If they made a big scene, Ling Mingyan would not be able to hide it even if she wanted to.

After the matter had escalated, so what if Ling Mingyan had the support of Ding General Manor? She was just a woman who had lost her reputation. How could she deserve to be Marquise Mingguo? The best outcome was that she voluntarily gave up the position. Then, the position of Marquise Mingguo would be vacant.

It was said that Feng Yuran doted on his current wife very much. If something like that happened, he would not be willing to let it go casually. He would definitely become enemies with Princess Caifeng and Crown Prince Xieyue. Feng Yuran was the Emperor’s favorite son. If he refused to let it go and went to find the Emperor to make a scene, given the Emperor’s love for Feng Yuran and the fact that You Yue’e almost had a miscarriage, the two countries might start to fight again. Then it would be impossible for the two countries to have a marriage. Thus, the Sixth Princess would be able to extricate herself from this matter.

As for to marry You Yuecheng, his wife had lost her reputation, and the Sixth Princess would have just broken the contract of marrying into another country then. When Imperial Noble Consort Wen said a few more words to the Emperor, it would not be a problem for her to marry You Yuecheng.

This was what the Sixth Princess had planned. That was why she had implicated Mo Xuetong in this matter. Furthermore, she was deeply jealous of Mo Xuetong. It was because of You Yuecheng. Every time Consort Xuan was mentioned, You Yuecheng would be in high spirits even if he did not speak, which meant that he had been listening.

This made the Sixth Princess jealous and full of hatred. She would not let go of Mo Xuetong if there was a chance! After she destroyed this woman, You Yuecheng would be more attentive to her.

However, she did not expect that Mo Xuetong would leave after she just stayed in the room for a moment, and she more unexpected that the hidden man would sneak into another room that had been cleaned up when he saw that there was no one in the room.

The most unexpected thing was that Hu Qianyue had given You Yue’e a pill in her name, which then caused the miscarriage of You Yue’e, who was supposed to be fine.

All the plans linked with one another. The Sixth Princess felt that there was nothing wrong with her plans, so she let Hu Qianyue lead her away, which could provide her with a witness who could prove that she was not present. In the plan of the Sixth Princess, as soon as Ling Mingyan screamed, everyone would find another man. Then they searched the house and found a man in disheveled clothes in Mo Xuetong’s room.

At this time, no matter whether Hu Qianyue admitted it or not, everyone had seen that she was with the Sixth Princess, which was an alibi.

However, when something went wrong with her plan to frame Mo Xuetong, coupled with Hu Qianyue’s plot, the Sixth Princess completely lost the advantage. Now, everyone was suspicious of her. How could she not panic?

“Sixth Princess, are you really not trying to harm my younger sister?” You Yuecheng raised his head and his cold eyes fell on the Sixth Princess’s face as he asked word by word.

“I… how could I hurt Third sister-in-law? I won’t hurt Third sister-in-law.”

“Did you really not know about the medicine on the Cloud Fabric at all?” You Yuecheng questioned coldly as if he did not see the Sixth Princess’s pitiful look. There was a flash of anger in his eyes. How could he not be angry when he saw his sister’s desperate look? She was his biological sister, the younger sister that his mother had asked him to take care of before she died. However, this woman had caused his sister to end up like this.

“I… I’m not an expert in this aspect. I just… just smelled it very fragrant… I couldn’t feel anything else.” Being stared at by You Yuecheng’s fierce eyes, the Sixth Princess started to mumble. She bit her lips and looked worried. “Your Excellency, I really didn’t have a reason to hurt Third sister-in-law.”

She did have no reason to hurt You Yue’e. She just wanted to use the fact that the child in You Yue’e’s belly had been hurt to force Feng Yulei to make a scene in front of the Emperor with Feng Yuran so as to ruin the marriage between the Southern Barbarian Lands and the Qin Kingdom!

As for the fact that the child in You Yue’e’s belly was gone, it was not her fault at all. It was obvious that someone else had secretly drugged her. Of course, this person was most likely to be Hu Qianyue. You Yue’e accidentally took the medicine given by someone else. How could she be blamed?

“Sixth Princess, you couldn’t feel it? That’s a pity. I don’t know how you’re going to save my sister now.” The coldness in You Yuecheng’s eyes grew even more piercing. He stared at the Sixth Princess and said slowly and clearly, with a faint smile on his face. However, this smile fell on the Sixth Princess’s eyes and made her feel cold.

She took two steps back and forced a smile. “Your Excellency, don’t worry. Let’s think about it. There will always be a way.”

According to his expression, You Yuecheng was clearly furious. The Sixth Princess did not dare to say that there was no other choice.

“What is it?”

“There, there’s a way, but I don’t know if you are willing to do it.” The Sixth Princess gritted her teeth. She could not have said that, because she was afraid that she would become a vicious woman in You Yuecheng’s eyes. But now she was forced to this point. If something really happened to You Yue’e, You Yuecheng would not let her go, so she could not care about anything else.

“So what if I’m willing? So what if I’m reluctant?” You Yuecheng asked with a cold laugh.

“Marquise…” The Sixth Princess opened her eyes wide and looked at You Yuecheng. She pretended to be in a dilemma and lowered her voice. She observed You Yuecheng’s reaction and when she noticed that his eyes were calm, she continued, “If Your Excellency is willing to part with your wife, it will definitely be able to protect Third sister-in-law’s reputation. But in that way, Marquise will…”

Speaking of this, she deliberately paused, and the corners of her eyes were slightly wrinkled, as if she was in a dilemma.

All of a sudden, the room quieted down. Even Feng Yulei lowered his head and started to think. This was a feasible idea.

“But what about Ding General Manor?” Feng Yulei raised this question. If he put all the blame on Ling Mingyan, Ding General Manor would not yield.

“Third brother, so what about Ding General Manor? Look, recently, Ding General Manor has no intention of standing on your side. Previously, they supported the Empress Dowager and King Ning. The Empress isn’t powerful and could only find some weak supporters for you. After that, Ding General Manor supported Elder brother. I heard that Elder brother had long reached an agreement with Ding General Manor. Now, the only person Ding General Manor has wholeheartedly helped is Elder brother. Your Excellency, you are the son-in-law of Ding General Manor. Have Ding General Manor supported Third brother because of you?”

“But…” Feng Yulei hesitated for a moment. He looked up at You Yuecheng and could not make up his mind. “Yuecheng, what do you…”

Compared to Ding General Manor that didn’t support him, Feng Yulei believed in Mingguo Manor, which was determined to follow him.

Everyone was clear who would be given up and who would be kept. Furthermore, You Yuecheng had always been good to his younger sister. How could he allow her reputation to be ruined? Someone had to take responsibility for what happened today. It was impossible for Consort Xuan to do it. She had not been on the scene from the beginning to the end and those things had nothing to do with her.

It was impossible for Princess Caifeng to do that either!

She was not the one who did this. If they forcibly put the blame on her, it would only make things even more complicated. Feng Yulei only wanted to put an end to it. If the Sixth Princess was exposed, Imperial Noble Consort Wen might be dragged out. And the past might even be discovered. Then, he would not be the prince that the Empress valued, but would be the enemy of the Empress and Ding General Manor.

The cunning Hu Qianyue was hiding behind Princess Caifeng. Since Princess Caifeng was fine, it was impossible for her to get into trouble. No matter Feng Yulei thought about it, there was only one person who could be the scapegoat.

“Get out of the way and let me in. Is that bitch slandering me again in the room? I must get in.” Suddenly, Ling Mingyan’s angry scolding came from outside, accompanied by a loud knock on the door. “Open the door. Your Excellency, let me in. I’ll explain it to you. It’s not like what you think. Someone framed me. That b*tch has framed me.”

“What should we do?” Feng Yulei turned to You Yuecheng.

“Go and open the door,” You Yuecheng said coldly to the Sixth Princess. His eyes were dark and one could not tell whether he was happy or angry. However, there was a sharp and decisive look on his lips. This made the Sixth Princess sigh in relief. She secretly wiped the cold sweat on her head and relaxed. Finally, he chose to protect her at the last moment.

“Okay, I’ll open it.” There were no outsiders in the room. You Yuecheng was so arrogant that he would not open it. The Sixth Princess was satisfied and listened to what he said. She turned around and walked to the door. Then she pulled back the bolt and let Ling Mingyan in. At this point, it was useless no matter what Ling Mingyan said.

Compared with You Yue’e, Ling Mingyan was much inferior in terms of family affection and status!

This was originally the only way to deal with the situation.

However, the only thing that the Sixth Princess did not expect was that Ling Mingyan was crazy and violent. She had misjudged the extent of Ling Mingyan’s arrogance and neglected that Ling Mingyan was almost mad with anger at this time.

“Bitch, you bitch, you bitch again. You want to frame me again and again. You want to marry His Excellency and become Marquise. How dare you frame me, Consort Yan and Consort Xuan? You bitch, I’ll kill you.” When the door opened, Ling Mingyan rushed in. She reached out to fiercely scratch the Sixth Princess’s face. Her long nails made long marks on the Sixth Princess’s face before she could react.

Blood immediately stained the Sixth Princess’s face!

No one expected that Ling Mingyan would rush over and reached out violently to scratch the Sixth Princess’s face without saying a word. When the people inside and outside the door realized what was going on, the Sixth Princess had been pressed to the ground by Ling Mingyan. The former held her face with both hands and screamed. Blood kept oozing to her face. Ling Mingyan grabbed the Sixth Princess’s hands with one hand and scratched her tender face with the other…

The sharp screams startled the madams and young ladies, who were resting in the other rooms. Everyone suddenly rushed out and looked at the crazy Ling Mingyan and the screaming Sixth Princess with her arms over her face in front of them.
