Chapter 437-438

Chapter 437 The Strange Truth, Punishment On the Younger Sister Instead Of Elder Sister

Consort Zhao ignored the lead palace maid. She looked at the lead palace maid coldly and then asked in a cold voice. “Whose is it?”

The lead palace maid was startled by her cold eyes. She realized that the person in front of her was Emperor’s favorite consort, so she didn’t say anything and stepped back to let Consort Zhao ask.

He Yufen turned her head around in accordance with the tone of Consort Zhao. “It’s… it’s… it’s Second Sister’s.” Suddenly, she saw He Yuxiu, who pretended to be frightened in the crowd but actually laughed in a mean way. She felt a little bit of hatred in her heart, and subconsciously answered with her teeth clenched.

It seemed that she couldn’t blame it on Mo Xuetong this time. Then let He Yuxiu take the blame!

Consort Zhao’s eyes also fell on He Yuxiu. “Is it your Second Sister’s?”

Everyone looked at He Yuxiu’s clothes and at the sachet on the floor. Both of them were of the same color and cloth. They were all from the same set. They could not help but scream in surprise.

He Yuxiu was watching a good show, so she didn’t come to help He Yufen. When she thought that He Yufen was soon going to ruin her reputation, her uncle and father would have no choice but to send herself to King Xuan’s Manor, she was complacent. Since He Yufen was in trouble, she herself would be the only choice. Even if her reputation was smeared before, it would be better than that of He Yufen, who stole the Empress Dowager Dowager’s golden phoenix head accessories.

Weighing the pros and cons, she decided to choose the less serious one, and she would steadily be King Xuan’s Consort. How could she not be overjoyed when she thought of this?

Therefore, she did not have the slightest intention to help He Yufen explain. Instead, she hoped that the more miserable He Yufen ended up today, the better. It would be better if He Yufen could be sentenced to death directly, so that she would finally see the hope she deserved. As for Yu Mingyong, it was not a problem at all. She believed that her father and uncle would have a lot of ways to let the libertine take the initiative to cancel the engagement.

Suddenly, she saw that everyone was looking at her as Consort Zhao looked at her. She immediately felt that something was wrong and her back was covered with cold sweat. She stood up and waved her hand hurriedly, saying, “Your Highness, that sachet is not mine. I didn’t take them.”

There was no emotion in Consort Zhao’s eyes as she looked at He Yuxiu coldly. “If it’s not yours, why did it appear in your elder sister’s hands?”

He Yufen, who had received Consort Zhao’s hint, came to her senses. “It’s you. Second Sister, it’s you. No wonder you gave me this sachet. You, how could you do this?” She pointed at He Yuxiu and said miserably. Tears were falling from her eyes drop by drop, which made her look both shocked and painful.

He Yuxiu’s face turned pale. “It’s not me… It’s not me, it’s you, it’s you.” Her lips trembled and she couldn’t say a word. She almost couldn’t stand up straight. The great fear made her almost unable to speak. She never thought that this thing would happen to her.

Consort Zhao looked at He Yuxiu with a gentle face and sighed. She seemed to be disappointed at He Yuxiu’s dishonest behaviors. “Xiu’er, how can you envy your sister so much and do such a thing? It’s a great sin. Go to beg the Empress Dowager. You are still young and ignorant, so she’ll…”

“Your Highness, it’s really not me, it’s really not me.” He Yuxiu pushed aside the maidservant who supported her and knelt down in front of Consort Zhao, crying and sobbing, “Your Highness, it really has nothing to do with me. It’s Elder Sister, she…”
