The General's Genius Daughter-Chapter 120 Conclusion to Drama
"Your Royal Highness as Prince Nan had said, your arbitrary decision means that you view lives as nothing! Even though my life worths less than that of the Princess, I am still a citizen of Changjing Kingdom. I can promise you with my life that this bloody will is fake, and that the princess' injury is self-induced!"
Hua Qiyue explained coldly, no longer calm. Facing the aggressive First Prince, her cold demeanor made her seem even more dominant than the noble Prince.
"Ridiculous! How dare you talk to me like this!" First Prince raged. He had positive feelings towards this woman before, but all of that was replaced with natural fear now.
The woman's eyes had an aura of confidence and strength that induced fear in even the First Prince.
"How dare you lie when you obviously hurt the princess?" The Prince's eyes were red with rage. "What evidence to prove that she hurt herself and that this bloody will is fake?"
"Qiyue does have evidence." Hua Qiyue looked around, and all retreated half a step, those that disliked Hua Qiyue whispered to each other.
"This Hua Qiyue is so troublesome. If she is not hiding something, why did she get involved in all these troubles?"
"Yes, Hua Qiyue is actually a very malicious woman."
"Scary! We should stay away from her."
The women whispered to each other as Hua Qiyue signaled for Lv Xin to come up. "Lv Xin, let Caining and Caiqing bring the person that we found just now up here."
Lv Xin left hurriedly. Hua Qiyue looked at Princess Huiling, who feigned her weakness, with disdain. "Princess Huiling, Qiyue is merely an ordinary woman, why bother to stage this show?"
As she spoke, Hua Qiyue moved up and grabbed Princess Huiling's body. First Prince was shocked and thought that Hua Qiyue was about to murder her. He was about to strike when she shouted, "See, Princess Huiling's knife was stuck on her blood bag. This blood bag has not been penetrated, and the princess is unharmed!"
Everyone looked at it and was stunned. Hua Qiyue was not wrong as Princess Huiling was not injured at all. Hua Qiyue lifted up her coat and revealed a large blood bag. The blood bag was stabbed by a small dagger in the middle, with blood flowing from it.
Hua Qiyue snatched with her hand and the blood bag was completely pulled out by her. Her back was unharmed and the dagger did not hurt Princess Huiling at all.
She prepared the blood beforehand.
Hua Qiyue's speed was so fast that Princess Huiling did not even realize that she was exposed. She was angry and frightened, jumping up and pointing at Hua Qiyue. "Come! Come... and apprehend this bitch! She lifted up the princess' robes and insulted the royal family!"
However, the room was mysteriously silent.
First Prince looked at Princess Huiling with hesitation. Although he was arrogant and condescending, he knew reason
Princess Huiling was clearly swindling. How could he allow his guards to arrest the victim?
"Insulting the royal family? Ridiculous. Princess Huiling's methods are what insults the name of the royal family. If such a matter spreads out, everyone will know that the Princess utilized such an underhand method to frame Princess Jinghua, making many question the education and manners of the royal family. Princess Jinghua merely exposed you to prove her innocence, how is that an insult!" Yun Shimo laughed, his face cold as snow. That made the First Prince shiver and tremble.
"His Royal Highness, King Nan is correct. If your sister continues like this, our reputation will be ruined." Huangfu Shenglin spoke lightly.
Princess Huiling sat on the ground, almost vomiting blood out of anger.
He didn't expect her methods to be exposed by Hua Qiyue so easily, making her extremely angry.
"Brother Prince! I faked my injuries but this bloody will is true, true!"
Princess Huiling cried out coldly, staring straight at Hua Qiyue with a twisted face. "She killed my sister! She did!"
"What's the reason?" Hua Qiyue asked faintly.
"My sister tortured your adopted son! When you haven't adopted him yet..."
"Ridiculous! How dare you insult our dead sister! How can she hit a child that isn't even six years old?" Before Princess Huiling even finished her sentence, First Prince interrupted her.
Princess Huiling was quiet and stunned. The furious First Prince was terrifying too.
At this time, Lv Xin brought Caiqing and Caining in. The two pulled a forty years old man in and threw him on the ground.
"Princess, we brought the person you wanted." Caiqing said.
The man looked miserable, with a hand still wrapped in white cloth. His face was full of new scars, as he seemed to have been beaten up by people not long ago.
Seeing the man, Princess Huiling's face changed. She looked at Hua Qiyue in shock, full of fear in her eyes.
"Zhao Ming, tell me everything you know!" Hua Qiyue ordered coldly.
The man called Zhao Ming looked at Hua Qiyue with gratitude before staring at Princess Huiling with hateful eyes. Pointing at her, he scolded, "You... you devil, not only did you imprisoned my wife, you broke her legs! If not for Princess Jinghua, my wife would have died! Your Royal Highness, I am Zhao Ming, a peasant in Tianyuan village near the imperial city, I teach the kids in the village about reading and writing."
The man looked at First Prince dressed in royal costume and recognized that he was the protagonist of the evening.
First Prince frowned. Seeing Zhao Ming's reaction, that did not seem like a lie.
"I have a special technique, which is to imitate other's handwriting. A few days ago, two Qi Artists brought me away and asked me to imitate Princess Huizhen's handwriting to produce a bloody will. I rejected them but those two people chopped off my hand and brought my wife away."
Zhao Ming stared at Princess Huiling with hatred. Princess Huiling knew she was in the wrong and thus avoided her gaze, mumbling, "Brother, don't believe in this person's nonsense!"
"I had to agree in the end. This Princess appeared and asked me to write a bloody will using the late Princess' handwriting. She promised to return my wife to me. However, she was almost dead when returned to me. If not for the medicine given by Princess Jinghua, my wife..." Zhao Ming cried out, stunning everyone.
"This sentence is not enough to prove that the Princess is the one who planned this." First Prince glanced at Zhao Ming harshly.
Zhao Ming smiled and took out a handkerchief. That handkerchief is pink, with a noble dragon and phoenix sewed on it. The words 'Princess Huiling' was written on it too.
Such a craft was typical of maidservants in the imperial family.
First Prince's expression changed.
"Princess left this handkerchief by accident before she left. I believe that First Prince will recognize it at first glance." Zhao Ming explained.
"His Royal Highness, Qiyue has both human and object as pieces of evidence. Furthermore, Princess Huiling feigned her injury to frame Qiyue. Please serve the justice for Qiyue!"
Qiyue requested firmly but quietly as she exposed everything. First Prince stood there with cold harsh eyes.
It was just a Flower Fair but so many things had happened inexplicably. How could he not be angry?
"Brother, she framed me! She framed me!" Princess Huiling was anxious. If this crime was settled on her, her reputation would be ruined.
"The evidence can be forged, what do you say?" First Prince blinked his eyes and slammed coldly.
Huangfu Shenglin could not stand it anymore and sneered, with a simmer of disdain in his eyes. "First Prince, this doesn't make sense. Caiqing and Caining are all Qi Artists of the royal family. They are just and fair. Princess Jinghua is a genius Qi Artist protected by our father. Why will she do this to frame our sister?"
"First Prince, if you don't believe in these pieces of evidence, I am willing to report this to the Emperor myself, and can go and retract evidence in Tianyuan Village with Palace Guards. Many people had seen the two Qi Artists of Princess Huiling."
Hua Qiyue was not anxious, holding a calm expression.
First Prince frowned. If the Emperor got word of this, this matter would be hard to resolve. This was because many had seen Princess Huiling's underhand methods.
Just while First Prince was hesitating, he suddenly heard a chant from outside the cabin. "The Emperor and the Queen has arrived!"
Princess Huiling's face was pure white as she trembled. It would be difficult for her now that the Emperor had arrived.
Everyone came out immediately. Princess Huiling tried to evade but was helped outside by two maidservants.
Indeed, Emperor Changlong and his wife came. Behind them were two strangers, from their clothing, they seemed to be the escort and King of Chexue Kingdom.
All kneeled down to pay their respects. After the Emperor asked everyone to come up, and when the Queen saw the bloodstains on Princess Huiling's body, she frowned and chided, "Huiling, what are you doing?"
Princess Huiling immediately lowered her head, not knowing what to say. First Prince sighed, knowing that he could no longer conceal this matter. This was because Huangfu Shenglin and Prince Nan, supporters of Hua Qiyue were there. They all stood on the side of Hua Qiyue.
First Prince had to explain the whole matter in full detail. Emperor Changlong was furious, asking his guards to drag Princess Huiling down.
Queen Liu's expression was extremely unhappy as well, as she did not expect Princess Huiling to mess this up.
"Princess Jinghua, Huiling is mischievous since young. I apologize for this matter. I will definitely punish her severely, please do not bear this to heart." Emperor Changlong explained with embarassment.
No matter how outrageous was Princess Huiling, she only framed her and was not punishable by death. After all, she was his own children, and the Emperor would not care much.
Hua Qiyue nodded her head. "Qiyue understand. Because I can be a bit too dominant, I understand if I made the Princess unhappy. If she held a grudge against me, such an action is not unexplainable."
"Such graciousness, indeed fitting of a princess!" A voice exclaimed. Hua Qiyue raised her brows and saw a pair of dark pupils.
That man wore a white coat with golden patterns on it. From his clothing, he was from Chexue Kingdom.
"Qiyue, this is the Tenth Highness Murong Fuyi from Chexue Kingdom, and this is an escort from Chexue Kingdom, Mo Erhe." Emperor Changlong introduced the two one by one.
"Nice to meet you, Tenth Highness. Nice to meet you, Mister Mo Erhe."
Hua Qiyue was extremely polite and graceful. A simmer of light shone through Murong Fuyi's eyes as he saw a lotus flower standing, fragrant and charming.
