After being reborn, I stole the female lead's cheat ability and raised the empress.

Chapter 209 The 7th Princess

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately believed it to be true.

Because they are currently at the entrance of Tianxianglou.

Tianxianglou was a brothel.

Seeing everyone's support for her, the city lord's daughter felt smug. She said viciously, "You like seducing people, don't you? Men, strip her clothes off! You like serving people, don't you? Let them serve you properly!"

Xia Li frowned and interrupted her: "Even if she was in the wrong first, aren't you going too far? Having her clothes removed in public, that's a serious blow to a woman's chastity..."

The city lord's daughter looked at her with displeasure: "She's nothing but a plaything ridden by a thousand men and trampled by ten thousand, what makes her so innocent?"

She turned to the woman on the ground and ordered, "You, get her!"

The woman shrank back in fear, her heart filled with anger and anxiety. She quickly said, "I am the Seventh Princess! You can't treat me like this! Besides, when I met your husband, I had no idea he already had a wife. He deceived both of us! You can go find him."

But the city lord's daughter refused to believe it, thinking it was a lie fabricated by the seventh princess to exonerate herself.

Asking her to go to her husband? Her husband would only say that he made a mistake that all men in the world would make, and then take the opportunity to let her take this vixen into his house.

This vixen's plan has succeeded!

Having figured all this out, the city lord's daughter sneered and mocked, "Seventh Princess? You think you can scare me with a made-up identity? I think you're just a shameless, vixen!"

As she spoke, she raised the dagger, about to slash at the Seventh Princess's face.

"Look at your little face, all tear-streaked up? And you still manage to get people to stand up for you. Today I'm going to slash that seductive face of yours to pieces!" she said, her eyes flashing with madness.

If you slash her face, she'll no longer be able to seduce her husband.

The dagger was about to touch his face.

At the critical moment,

In her panic, the Seventh Princess pulled out a token from her bosom, held it high, and shouted, "This is my token. If you don't believe me, you can check it!"

Seeing this, the city lord's daughter knew things were going badly, but at this point, the die was cast and she had no choice but to act.

Instead of calming down, she became even angrier, snatched the token away, and said fiercely, "What a worthless token! I bet you forged it. I'll smash it today!"

Just as she was about to smash the token to the ground, a delicate shout rang out:

"Damaging an imperial token bestowed by the palace is punishable by the extermination of nine generations of one's family. You try smashing one and see what happens!"

The one who made the sound was Zhao Jihua.

Xia Li quietly leaned closer and asked, "Sister, is she really the Seventh Princess?"

Zhao Jihua: "Yes."

How did she get here?

"After I ascended the throne, I ordered that all the princesses could go out and see the wider world. The seventh princess did indeed go out of the palace to travel at that time."

"Then why didn't you recognize her?"

Looking at the Seventh Princess's disguised appearance, Zhao Jihua said speechlessly, "I'm not familiar with that Seventh Princess. I didn't see her face clearly, so I didn't recognize her at first."

The city lord's daughter looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in gorgeous clothes leading a group of people walking quickly toward her.

She looked at the newcomer warily and asked, "Who are you?"

The woman, with a dignified expression, slowly said, "I am Her Majesty the current Empress, Zhao Jihua."

Upon hearing this, the city lord's daughter was first taken aback, then frowned, glanced at Xia Li holding the Seventh Princess with heartache, and instantly realized what was going on.

She sneered, "You're his hired accomplices, aren't you? This is a remote area, and Her Majesty the Empress has never announced her presence here. How dare you impersonate our esteemed Empress! None of you will leave here today! I'm going to arrest you all and send you to the authorities!"

She waved her hand, signaling the guards to take action.

Zhao Jihua remained calm and composed, a slight smile of disdain playing on his lips.

She flashed through the guards in a few swift movements, grabbed the city lord's daughter, and pinned her hands behind her back.

Zhao Jihua sneered, "I am not a weak and delicate woman like the Seventh Princess."

Meanwhile, Momo was also grumbling to her master.

Tao said, "The Seventh Princess has explained her identity many times, but this city lord's daughter still won't listen. Is she stupid?"

Xia Li sneered: "She doesn't want to hear it, not that she can't hear it."

Peach asked, puzzled, "Huh?"

Xia Li explained, "The price of humiliating a princess is not something she can accept, so she can only deny it to the death. If she insists that she doesn't know the princess's identity and is only teaching a prostitute who seduced her husband a lesson, she might get a light punishment of ignorance when the people plead for her in public."

"Oh……"

"Alright, let's hurry up and take the Seventh Princess down for treatment. You can leave this to my sister."

Zhao Jihua was still lecturing the city lord's daughter: "How dare you lay a hand on the princess and even try to damage the token? Don't you think your head is comfortable on your own head?"

"Her problem is that she seduced a married man."

Upon hearing this, a flash of anger crossed Zhao Jihua's eyes. She forcefully shoved the city lord's daughter forward and said, "You should be settling scores with that heartless man, not bullying an innocent woman."

The city lord's daughter, however, stubbornly insisted, "I don't care, I just can't swallow this! She seduced my husband, she has to pay the price!"

Zhao Jihua looked at her, feeling both angry and helpless: "I think you've been blinded by jealousy and have completely lost your mind."

The city lord's daughter remained arrogant, shouting, "Keep pretending! When my father arrives, you'll all be in for a world of hurt! He's the city lord, and he'll arrest you all!"

Zhao Jihua's eyes instantly sharpened like an eagle's, a cold smile curving his lips as he let out a sneer: "Ha! I'll be waiting right here for your city lord father! I'd like to see how he handles this lawless act."

Hearing this, the city lord's daughter felt a pang of unease, but she forced herself to remain calm and retorted defiantly, "Stop bluffing! When my father arrives, you'll be sorry! You lot who dare to impersonate royalty are the ones who truly deserve to be arrested!"

Zhao Jihua chuckled: "What? You think you can escape punishment by pretending you don't know anything?"

The city lord's daughter panicked instantly.

Zhao Jihua coldly retorted, "I'm telling you: No way!"

Before long, a series of hurried footsteps approached from afar, and the city lord, dressed in official robes, rushed over with a hurried expression.

Seeing the chaotic scene before him, with his daughter subdued and several injured guards lying on the ground around him, his brows furrowed instantly.

Upon seeing her father, the city lord's daughter immediately cried out, "Father, you've finally come! They've been bullying me and impersonating the empress and princess! Please save me!"
