The assassin's princess is actually my aunt

"A woman like you, disregarding all propriety and morality, runs to a place where men are fighting! How disgraceful!

They say they are doing it for the country and the people, but they are still acting recklessly!

Do you really think that pacifying the Western Territory can be accomplished by a mere princess?

I don’t know what dirty tricks he used to trick Prince Sheng into covering up his lies! "

"Ah? No way, how is this possible?!" someone in the crowd asked in disbelief.

"How is it impossible? When have you ever seen a war won by a woman alone?

Even Madam Gu back then, she was powerful enough, but she also fought together with General Gu every time."

The woman continued to refute with reason and evidence.

This caused the people around him, who were already very jealous of Leng Xinmo, to agree with him:

"Yes, if you ask me, a woman should stay at home to take care of her husband and children and serve her parents-in-law. Why go to the battlefield?

Isn't this against the ethics of women and the three obediences and four virtues?"

"That's right! I also heard that Princess Mingnuo went to the Western Territory not to quell the rebellion!

She is going to find Prince Sheng!"

"What?! You're going to the battlefield just for a man?

Isn't this nonsense? "

"What's wrong with that? Humph, this Princess Mingnuo has always been lawless!"

Because of that sharp woman's inflammatory words.

Among the crowd that was originally full of praise.

There were actually one or two discordant voices, all with jealous and contemptuous tones.

"No, you are talking nonsense! Princess Mingnuo is kind-hearted and cannot bear to see the people suffer.

That’s why I went to the Western Territory just now, regardless of my own safety, to relieve the danger in the Western Territory.”

An anxious and angry voice defended Leng Xinmo.

Xiao Wu pointed at the veiled woman standing nearby and said angrily.

The person who just said those slanderous words about Leng Xinmo was the veiled woman.

The woman turned her head and looked at Xiao Wu. Xiao Wu's appearance was rather pitiful.

Originally, he had lost weight due to the torture he had suffered in Nanfeng Pavilion.

Now he lives in a small courtyard in Yong'an Lane in the north of the city, and he seems to be a little stronger.

Although in the past few months, in addition to the few new children.

He was the only one in the courtyard, but there was nothing missing in the courtyard.

He also tried his best to take care of those children.

Go and take care of the yard.

Moreover, Juexin and Cui Niang would occasionally visit him.

These few months have been the most comfortable days in his life.

All of this was given to him by the princess. He knew that the princess did not explicitly order him to leave.

Most of the time it’s probably because they never even remembered that there was such a person as him.

And maybe one day, the princess will suddenly remember him and feel disgusted, and will ask Juexin to drive him away.

He was still grateful, grateful to the princess for saving him from the fire pit.

Thank you, Princess, for giving him the warmth he had never enjoyed before.

So, when Xiao Wu heard that the princess was returning to the city today, he came to wait outside the princess's mansion early in the morning.

Thinking that I could see you from afar would make me satisfied.

Moreover, maybe I can see Alu and the others today.

Who would have thought that there would be someone in the crowd who would slander and insult the princess wantonly.

This is something Xiao Wu cannot accept!

The princess is so nice, how could this person speak such bad words to her!

Seeing the masked woman turning around, Xiao Wu's eyes, which had been tender and affectionate, were now filled with anger.

Not willing to be outdone, he glared at the woman!

The woman under the veil had a ruined face that was extremely distorted at this moment.

Feng Jingwu looked at Leng Xinmo's eyes, which were full of venom.

Just ten days ago, Emperor Qianyao had issued an order to execute the entire Feng family.

She knew that her father and elder brother had died in the Western Territory.

Now the eldest sister and everyone in the Feng family are all dead!

Only her, if she hadn't sneaked out of Feng Mansion and wanted to find Prince Rui.

By chance, she met the eunuch who came to deliver the imperial decree to exterminate the entire family, and she hid herself.

Now she has already lost her soul!

but!

Although she escaped at all costs, she had to destroy her appearance in order to avoid being tracked down!

Feng Jingwu stretched out her hand and touched her face lightly through the veil.

And all this!

It’s all because of that woman, Leng Xinmo!

If it weren't for her, how could her father and brother lose?

If it weren't for her, Prince Rui would have married me when I confessed my love to him!

If it weren't for her...

But why? She was so miserable! But she could receive generous gifts from the royal family and be admired by all the people!

Why?! This is so unfair!

Now, even a pariah dared to yell at me for that woman Leng Xinmo!

Feng Jingwu snorted coldly. Just as she was about to teach Xiao Wu a lesson, she heard Eunuch Gao chanting again:

"Prince Sheng received the order..."
