"shut up!"

The eldest princess stopped Lu Youning's words with a shout.

"You are so crazy that you can even say such nonsense."

Lu Wan is already engaged to Prince Rui. What if such nonsense spreads?

But even so, everyone still looked at Lu Wan standing in the center of the room, sizing up, exploring, doubting, and despising her, like sharp knives trying to pierce her.

Lancao on the side felt tense all over and almost fainted.

No matter how stupid she is, there is still something she doesn't understand after seeing the scars on her young lady's body.

If everyone finds out that the young lady is the maid, there is only one way to die...

Although Mrs. Ye felt sorry for her daughter, she also knew that Lu Youning's words just now were too inappropriate, so she quickly pulled her to kneel down to apologize to the eldest princess.

"Mom, please calm down. Ning'er made a blunder for a moment. It was really an unintentional act. Please don't blame me, mother."

Lu Youning was also shocked by the eldest princess's sharp scolding, and tears rolled down her eyes.

"Grandma, Ning'er realizes her mistake... I just happened to see my eldest sister appear in the wing room yesterday noon... I was afraid of what might happen, what if..."

Lu Youning seemed to be admitting his mistake, but in fact he was still trying to smear Lu Wan with his words.

In the final analysis, she just couldn't accept that a little concubine could marry a man as glorious as Prince Rui. And she, obviously the most noble girl in the capital, could only marry someone as shameless as Li Yi.

Reckless man, God is really unfair!

After listening to Lu Youning's words, the eldest princess looked towards Lu Wan, her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, and murderous intent appeared in her eyes!

If it is true, as Lu Youning said, that the person who had an affair with King Yi was Lu Wan, then not only would she not be able to marry King Rui, she would also offend the royal family and bring disaster to the Zhenguo Palace!

Only by killing such a troublemaker can we save the overall situation...

Almost instantly, the eldest princess, who was always decisive in killing, had an idea in her mind.

Even from a distance, Lu Wan could clearly detect the murderous look in the eyes of the eldest princess. She knew very well how powerful her grandmother, who was born in the royal family, was, and she could not tolerate the slightest bit of sand in her eyes.

She looked back at Lu Youning and said calmly: "If according to my sister's statement, my sister also appeared in the wing room yesterday, will she also be misunderstood as having an affair with King Yi?"

"You..." Lu Youning didn't expect that he would be slapped down by Lu Wan. For a moment, he was speechless and his face turned red with anger.

Lu Wan paid a respectful tribute to the eldest princess and said: "Yesterday, my grandma celebrated her birthday. My granddaughter personally copied the "Auspicious Sutra" and went to the small ancestral hall to burn it to pray for her grandma, so she took the road to the east chamber."

Lu Wan looked calm.

The eldest princess stared at her closely. Seeing that she looked calm and not distracted, she immediately relaxed her expression and turned to criticize Lu Youning.

"You are a noble lady, and you talk about baseless things. Little do you know how much trouble your nonsense will bring to the house. You are really indulgent on weekdays."

"If anyone dares to spread a word of what you just said, I will personally break his legs!"

Although the eldest princess was angry at Lu Youning's unconscionable words, she was reluctant to punish her. She only strictly ordered everyone not to spread what she just said, and then waved her hands impatiently for everyone to leave.

Mrs. Ye quickly led everyone out.

As soon as everyone left, the room became quiet. The eldest princess stared at the figure walking at the back of the crowd, her eyes getting colder.

Aunt Jin stepped forward and asked softly: "What is the princess looking at?"

Seeing her figure disappearing around the bend in the corridor, the eldest princess withdrew her gaze.

"Don't you think that the second girl has been acting strangely recently?"

Aunt Jin was a little confused: "What did the princess say?"

The eldest princess closed her eyes, "She has always been stupid and can't say a word when things happen. But just now she asked Ning Yatou in a few words. It was really beyond my expectation."

Aunt Jin put the brewed ginseng tea into her hand: "This is a good thing. In the past, I was worried that she would not be able to control Prince Rui and hold the position of Princess Rui. Now it seems that there is no need to worry."

The eldest princess pondered for a moment and then ordered: "Go to the ancestral hall in person and ask clearly. Did she go there at noon yesterday? What did she do?"

Aunt Jin was startled: "Princess, don't you believe the second girl?"
