Chapter 124: You want evidence? This prince is the evidence!

  "Mother... I had agreed to help my sister and family keep this a secret," Sheng Dieyi cried, her face covered in tears: "But it's been so long, my heart has been tormented all along."

  "Mother, this is wrong, I don't want to see you both going further and further down the wrong path, and I also..."

  "I also liked the second prince, I have the blood of the second prince, I cannot let my child's father and child suffer such humiliation and injustice!"

  "Sorry, Mother, forgive me for saying all of this..."

  "Mother, don't worry, even if I tell everyone the truth, I won't blame you for what you've done to me. The Second Prince is kind and forgiving, he won't blame you either... As for the Emperor, Empress Dowager, and Empress, my brother and I will also help our sister and the Yong'an Marquis's household plead for mercy..."

  This is truly a portrayal of oneself as being both humble and kind, soft and strong, suffering and tolerant... performed to perfection!

  However, all the good things are hers, Xiang Yu's and the Second Prince's.

  All the evil is from Sheng Jinxiu and Yong'an Marquis Manor...

  "You... you... you..." Meng Qiuyu's hand trembled as she pointed at Sheng Dieyi, uttering three "you"s in a row, but was so angry that she couldn't say another word and fainted on the spot.

  "Mother!" Sheng Jinxiu hastily stepped forward and supported Meng Qiuyu's body.

  Sheng Yunjing, Sheng Chengyi and Sheng Chengxin also rushed forward without hesitation to protect Meng Qiuyu and Sheng Jinxiu.

  "Sheng Dieyi, you also have the face to call me mother? You're slandering us like this, has your conscience been eaten by a dog?" Sheng Chengyi was so angry that he wanted to tear Sheng Dieyi apart.

  Yan Zi Ye however held Sheng Die Yi in his arms, glaring fiercely at Sheng Cheng Yi: "This prince does not permit you to threaten Die Yi again!"

  "Sheng Chengyi! If it weren't for the fact that Yeh-yeh was still to be married off from the Yong'an Marquis Manor, and my eldest son was still to return home from the Yong'an Marquis Manor, how could I have tolerated all the things you've done?"

  "Does the second prince think he can talk nonsense with his eyes open and not fear retribution?" Sheng Chengyi was not eloquent, and could only force out this sentence in anger.

  Sheng Chengxin suppressed his great anger and questioned Sheng Dieyi and the Second Prince: "Sheng Dieyi, Second Prince, you said that someone from our Sheng family gave you medicine, forcing you to have an illicit relationship, resulting in a secret pregnancy... What evidence do you have?"

  "Evidence?" Sheng Dieyi raised her head from Yan Ziyuan's arms: "Second brother, you were the one who persuaded me not to speak out about this matter before, and now you're still saying this?"

  "Yes, I have no evidence... but I've lost my innocence, become a woman everyone condemns, become a seductress who lured my sister's fiancé, and even my child will be born out of wedlock. Isn't the harm I've suffered enough?"

  "This prince is the evidence!" Yan Ziyen said: "The medicine was drunk by this prince himself, these things were all experienced by this prince himself, this prince standing here is both a witness and physical evidence, what other evidence do you need?"

  "Hmm~" someone let out a soft chuckle.

  A painless and itchless laugh, however, made everyone in the grand hall look at him with extreme horror.

  This person is none other than Regent King Yan Beichen!

  The Regent smiled? He actually smiled!

  What does this smile mean?

  Is it ridiculous and despicable to be happy?

  Is it the Yong'an Marquis Manor that dares to be so ignorant of life and death as to use such a despicable trick on the imperial prince?

  It must be! The Regent King, after all, is the Regent King of Heaven's House, and he is also the Emperor's uncle.

  But...
