Chapter 352 - 352: They Covet Sky Saber
‘It’s her! She did this!’
Yu Xiaoxiao was anxious to death, but it was useless.
Yu Yunxi lowered her head to look at Ding Qing as she said unhurriedly, “Miss
Ding, now that the truth is out, don’t you think you should give me and the King of Youshan an explanation?”
Although Yu Yunxi spoke normally, her tone was commanding.
Ding Qing’s expression was stiff.
‘How could this happen? Clearly, Yu Yunxi harmed the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince!’
Ding Qing no longer cared about her image at this moment, She crawled toward Chu Yuemu and pulled his sleeve as she shouted anxiously, “Seventh Prince, think about it again! It must be Yu Yunxi who tried to harm you!”
Chu Yuemu was already in pain, to begin with, and he was in a bad mood. His mood naturally worsened when Ding Qing pestered him like this. He did not hesitate as he kicked Ding Qing away with a dark expression on his face. He naturally wanted Yu Yunxi to pay for what she did, but what could he do?
Lord Ding was naturally anxious seeing that his daughter was kicked away. However, the other party was the Seventh Prince so he could only suppress his anger. He could only run over to help Ding Qing up as he said apologetically, “Seventh Prince, my daughter didn’t know the rules and offended you. I apologize for her mistake.”
Yu Yunxi smiled coldly and said, “Lord Ding, this isn’t her only mistake, right? It doesn’t matter. I don’t expect an apology from her. However, please don’t forget about kneeling on the street of the capital.”
The Ding father and daughter’s expressions changed drastically.
“Father, save me!” Ding Qing pleaded, scared, as she tugged at Ding Shan’s sleeve. If she had to kneel in the street of the capital, her reputation would be ruined. At that time, how could she become the Seventh Prince’s Princess Consort? No matter what, she could not kneel in the street of the capital.
Ding Shan gritted his teeth and kneeled down before he said, “Eldest Princess, my daughter was insensible earlier. I apologize on behalf of the entire Ding family. Please give her a chance to turn over a new leaf.”
At the same time, Ding Shan glared at Ding Qing.
Ding Qing was unwilling, but she still kneeled in the end. She said pitifully,
“Eldest Princess, I know my mistake now. I only saw you and the King of
Youshan standing next to the Sixth Princess and the Seventh Prince so I
misunderstood the situation…”
At this time, Ding Qing still wanted to shirk the responsibility.
“Since you know your mistake, you have to accept your punishment. Framing a member of the imperial family is enough to kill nine generations of your family. Lord Ding has served the imperial court diligently for so many years, but how can you be such a disappointment? For Lord Ding’s sake, there’s no need to punish nine generations of your family. Miss Ding, you have to kneel on the street of the capital. When the time is up, you can naturally get up,” Yu Yunxi said in an increasingly icy tone.
“Your Majesty, I…”
Seeing that Yu Yunxi was unyielding, Ding Shang turned to plead for leniency with Chu Zai.
However, Yu Yunxi smiled and said to Chu Zai, “Your Majesty, earlier, Miss Ding agreed to kneel on the street of the capital if she was proven wrong. Now, she wants to go back on her word. Don’t tell me that everyone can just trample on the Eldest Princess?”
Chu Zai’s expression darkened. Ding Shan’s action was akin to slapping his face. No matter how much he hated Yu Yunxi, Yu Yunxi was still the Eldest Princess of Xichu. Ding Shan and Ding Qing had no evidence to back their claims, and they even wanted to go back on their words. This was tantamount to looking down on the prestige of the imperial family.
Chu Zai asked gloomily, “Ding Shan, could it be that you want to kneel on behalf of your daughter?”
“Your Majesty, that’s not what I meant. I…”
“Then what do you mean?” Chu Zai asked gloomily.
“I, I… Indeed, I didn’t teach my daughter well. I’ll make sure she’s punished as promised, ” Ding Qing said as he kowtowed in fear and trepidation. After that, he quickly pulled Ding Qing away.
Ding Shan knew that if angered Chu Zai further, the entire Ding family would be in trouble.
Anyone could see that Chu Zai was in a terrible mood now.
The Emperor already blamed the Ding family for being incompetent, failing to frame Yu Yunxi. Not only that, but their actions were also akin to looking down on the prestige of the imperial family. Indeed, the Ding family was seeking death.
At this moment, Chu Zai looked at Yu Yunxi and said with a smile, “It’s been hard on you. You clearly saved lives, but you still have to suffer injustice.”
Yu Yunxi acted as though she did not hear the sarcasm in Chu Zai’s voice as she calmly said, “Your Majesty, it’s nothing. I didn’t take Miss Ding’s accusations seriously. I only hope that the Seventh Prince and the various noble young masters will be more diligent and mindful. Otherwise, they’ll be unable to retaliate when they’re plotted against or wrongly accuse the innocent…”
Many people’s faces contorted into ugly expressions when they heard these words.
Chu Zai said coldly, “Alright. It’s good that everyone returned safely.”
Yu Yunxi also could not be bothered with these people. She had successfully taught them a lesson today after all
Suddenly, Chu Zhihe noticed Sky Saber, the white wolf that was standing near Yu Yunxi. She asked, “Is this your prey?”
Only then did everyone realize that there was a white wolf standing behind Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili.
The eunuch next to Chu Zai shouted immediately, “Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor! Protect the Emperor!”
The palace guards drew their swords and stood in front of Chu Zai, looking very vigilant.
Yu Yunxi and Feng Yili only raised their brows.
On the other hand, Sky Saber lowered its head, looking bored.
‘These humans are really boring. I haven’t even shown my might yet, but they’re already so scared!’
Chu Zai looked at Yu Yunxi sharply and asked, “What’s with this white wolf?”
Yu Yunxi replied casually, “Your Majesty, the King of Youshan and I found this white wolf when we were hunting together.”
Upon hearing the word ‘together’, Feng Yili could not help but smile again.
Empress Qin observed the white wolf carefully. Seeing that it did not move, she whispered to Chu Zai, “Your Majesty, the white wolf doesn’t seem to be a threat.”
Suddenly, someone said, “Your Majesty, this white wolf seems to be the Snow
Wolf King! ”
‘Snow Wolf King?!’
Everyone broke out in an uproar immediately.
After all, snow wolves were considered a noble breed.
Even Yu Yunxi could not help but look at Sky Saber again. She did not expect that he was such a noble breed of wolf.
On the other hand, Sky Saber raised its head, looking elegant and graceful. It was noble and naturally would not eat those disgusting things in front of it.
At the same time, Chu Yueqi stared at Yu Yunxi intently. Earlier, he did not realize that the wolf was so noble.
‘If I could possess such a wolf…’
Before Chu Yueqi could finish his thoughts, a eunuch said to Chu Zai obsequiously, “Your Majesty, the Snow Wolf King is worthy of the son of heaven like you.. It must have been tamed by your prestige!”
