A red apricot is about to cheat on you

Chapter 213: Rebellion

Zhu Qingxue was upset and didn't know what to do. At this moment, a young woman in a green dress came over and said in a delicate voice:

"Oh, isn't this Miss Yi who has been living outside? I heard that you were once a top courtesan in a brothel? Is that true?" The woman in green laughed heartily, her eyes revealing deep disdain for Yi Duoer.

She spoke loudly on purpose. When the people around her heard this, their eyes were focused on Yi Duoer. Yi Duoer looked up at the woman in green. She had an ordinary appearance and ordinary clothes. Only the fine jade bracelet on her wrist was dazzling.

I thought to myself! She must be Zhu Qingxue's person, so I let her say it out loud to slander me. Unfortunately, their wishful thinking was wrong.

Yi Duoer stood up and stared at the woman in green with sharp eyes.

"Yes, I was sold to a brothel, but what I said was that I escaped on the day I bought her. I don't know this sister? Where did you hear that?"

Yi Duoer admitted it generously at first, but as soon as she finished speaking, everyone started pointing fingers at her and whispering to each other.

At this time, Shen Mingzhu stood up and said in a tone of feigned surprise, "Oh, how did you end up in a brothel? You said you escaped from the brothel that day, but do you have any evidence? Alas, you're almost going to become the regent princess now. This is really a disgrace to the royal family."

After she finished speaking, Yi Duoer began to criticize her, saying that she was not qualified to be the Regent Princess, and that she had thousands of people riding on her. If she were an ordinary girl, she would have died to atone for her crime long ago.

The more they talked, the more excited they became. The women, in particular, were even more hostile to homosexuals. Moreover, many of the women from aristocratic families here had generally had feelings for the Regent. They were even more resentful of Yi Duo'er becoming the Regent's Consort.

Seeing that the matter had gotten out of hand, the emperor could no longer pretend that nothing had happened, so he could only ask Yi Duoer helplessly.

"Yi Duoer, tell me, what is going on?" His voice was very majestic. As soon as he opened his mouth, everyone stopped talking.

Yi Duoer stood up and slowly walked to the center. Chu Junye wanted to speak up for Yi Duoer, but then he thought, if this was true, then the emperor's uncle might not insist on marrying her.

Then he still had a chance to win Yi Duoer back, so he closed his mouth and watched quietly.

"Your Majesty, I was indeed sold to Jiangzhou, but I did escape from the brothel that night, and I have not allowed anyone to touch me since then. I beg Your Majesty to investigate and give me justice! Also, I want to sue two people."

Yi Duoer's tone was very firm and her voice was very loud.

Before the emperor could speak, the empress beside him spoke first, "Yi Duo'er, let's not talk about it. You want to accuse someone, and you say you are innocent. You are a remarried woman, how can you prove your innocence?"

Yi Duoer was stunned for a moment, then said, "I say I am innocent, and I am innocent. You don't need to believe it or not. Why is the Queen protecting the person I accused?"

"How dare you, Yi Duoer, question me?" the queen roared. Jiang Wange, who was sitting beside her, stood up to speak for Yi Duoer and prove her innocence.

But people's words are scary and cannot be suppressed by just a few words. Shen Mingzhu was the first to kneel on the ground and ask the emperor to punish Yi Duoer and cancel her marriage with Chu Jingchen.

With her taking the lead, others also followed suit. For a moment, the emperor was in a dilemma. He knew Chu Jingchen's friendship with Yi Duoer. If he really canceled it, and so many people attacked Yi Duoer, wouldn't there be chaos when he came back?

Yi Duoer was about to speak up and continue to fight back, but at this moment, Chu Junye stood up, came to Yi Duoer's side, and said in reply with a bow:

"Father, I can prove Duo'er's innocence. Since she married into the Night Prince's Mansion, I have never slept with her."

His voice trembled slightly, and his words startled everyone, and they all cast thoughtful glances at Chu Junye.

Yi Duoer looked up at him, feeling a little bitter. At this moment, the queen seemed to have caught something, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her lips.

"If that's the case, then this is easy. If you want to verify your identity, just have someone examine you. Then you'll know. If you're truly impure, not only will you not be able to marry the Regent, but you'll also have to live with the ancient Buddha forever."

There seemed to be no reason to refuse the Queen's words. Even the Emperor gave the Queen a cold look. He tried desperately to suppress the matter, but the Queen intended to make things worse.

With so many people present, he couldn't stop her. The queen was very proud because she knew that Yi Duo'er, such a beautiful woman, was sold to such a place. She must have been no longer innocent.

She wasn't the only one who thought this; almost everyone present shared the same sentiment. Just wait and see Yi Duoer dig her own grave!

Yi Duoer sneered and then said loudly: "I won't check my body, so why do you touch me?"

Her reaction was quite intense. To others, it looked like she was frightened. Even Chu Junye, seeing her extreme reaction, thought she was no longer innocent. Although she was heartbroken, she kept her composure when she thought about the chance to win him back.

Shen Mingzhu continued, "Yi Duo'er, are you trying to hide the fact that you're already a fallen woman by resisting this? How can a woman like you be worthy of him? What qualifications do you have to be his wife?"

Shen Mingzhu's tone was extremely unbalanced. She hated Yi Duo'er very much. She was the one who stole her brother Jing away. Today, she wanted to ruin this woman's reputation and make Chu Jingchen completely despise her.

Yi Duoer turned around, glanced at Shen Mingzhu, and then smiled disdainfully. She shook her head and said, "I'm not qualified? Do you think you are qualified? You are a woman after all, and you are so shameless as to slander another woman. I think you are so pitiful and pathetic!"

Shen Mingzhu couldn't stand Yi Duoer saying that to her. She was mocking her, and without caring about her image, she started to curse, "What gives you the right? Yi Duoer, you are just a piece of shit who has been played by many people. What qualifications do you have to lecture me?"

"How dare you, Lord Shen! Is this how you teach your daughter? You're so disrespectful in the palace!" the Queen roared, frightening Governor Shen so much that he immediately forced Shen Mingzhu to her knees. "Your Majesty, please calm down. I'm guilty! Please spare my daughter. She's young and outspoken!"

When these words came out, the Ninth Princess laughed at him, "Heh... She's young. She's already 23 years old, not a girl in her teens. And yet she's making up stories about Duo'er, who's much younger than her."

The Ninth Princess was obviously mocking her for being an old maid and a vicious person!

Shen Mingzhu glanced at the Ninth Princess, and with deep hatred, she said, "You..."

"That's enough. Don't you think the trouble you've caused is not big enough?" Governor Shen shouted harshly.

Shen Mingzhu could only give up, not daring to say anything else. However, she was still very proud. Their goal had been achieved, and they had already pointed the finger at Yi Duoer. If she had not done the body check, everyone would have said that it was as if she had done it.

Once her broken body is exposed to the public, she will not be able to marry Chu Jingchen. It will also bring shame to her and her family.
