Seeing Jiang Yunxi approaching her, Zhao Ya seemed to remember something and slapped Jiang Yunxi on the face. "I heard that man calling 'Princess' and 'Princess'. He must have mistaken me for you. It's you who made me like this."

Jiang Yunxi was quick to grab Zhao Ya's arm to prevent her hand from falling on her face.

"Princess, don't mistake my enemy for mine. I'm not the one who would harm you." Jiang Yunxi didn't get angry at Zhao Ya.

She knew that this was not Zhao Ya's fault.

"Since I returned to the palace, I have never left the palace, nor have I had any contact with the Jiang family. I have not been in the capital for these years. How could such a force set up such a big chess game in the Zhenguo Mansion to harm me?"

Jiang Yunxi tried to reason with Zhao Ya, "But we can find the enemy together."

Perhaps Zhao Ya had heard Jiang Yunxi's words, tears welled up in her eyes, and her tone was full of annoyance, "Why did this happen to me? Why me? Why did I come to attend her coming-of-age ceremony? If I don't leave the palace, won't nothing happen?"

Without the storax, the man on the ground also woke up.

He looked at Zhao Ya on the bed, and stretched his head towards her proudly, with a greedy look in his eyes, "Princess, Princess, you can't just abandon me. Just now you cried and begged me for you, and we made love. We love each other so much, I will marry you and we will be husband and wife for life, okay?"

His greedy look made Zhao Ya feel sick. She really couldn't accept that she had a relationship with such a person.

"You see, now that he is awake, he can't even tell who he is. It's obvious that I have never met him before."

Nan Nan immediately removed his jaw and turned to ask Jiang Yunxi, "How should we deal with him?"

Looking at the man lying on the ground, Zhao Ya's eyes turned red. She immediately ignored everything and picked up a vase on the bedside and threw it at him.

The man was tied up, unable to move, with only fear in his eyes.

He could only watch the vase getting closer and closer to his head.

The vase shattered.

Several streaks of blood flowed out from the man's head and face.

Zhao Ya looked at him, afraid that he would shout everywhere and attract others.

She knew that if this happened, her father and mother would really marry her off to such a bastard for the sake of the royal family's reputation.

Zhao Ya's eyes turned red in anger. She picked up the broken pieces of the vase and cut his throat hard with them.

Blood gushed out, splashing all over Zhao Ya's face.

Nan Nan stood guard at the door, blocking the view of those looking inside.

Jiang Yunxi knew that Zhao Ya really hated him so much that she was so reckless.

She could also understand that anyone would go crazy if they woke up and found out their innocence was ruined by a bastard they despised.

Zhao Ya's eyes were red with anger. She stood up with the porcelain shard in her hand and looked towards Jiang Yunxi.

Jiang Yunxi suddenly had a bad feeling.

Zhao Ya walked towards her.

Jiang Yunxi stood there without moving.

Nan Nan, however, was worried about her and walked towards her, "Princess!"

Nan Nan held Zhao Ya's hand holding the porcelain piece with both hands, but she didn't dare to fight for it, for fear of hurting Zhao Ya. She could only reluctantly keep the porcelain piece away from Jiang Yunxi.

"Zhao Ya." Zhao Changyu's voice came from outside.

Zhao Ya froze immediately after hearing the voice.

Even at this moment, she could still distinguish Zhao Changyu's voice and feel the oppression in it.

She didn't dare not stop.

Her eyes turned from scarlet to despair.

The porcelain piece in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

Jiang Yunxi walked towards her and tried to comfort her, "Princess, put on your clothes, I will help you comb your hair. Let's go back to the palace."

When Zhao Ya heard this, she finally couldn't hold back any more. She hugged Jiang Yunxi, put her head on her shoulder, and burst into tears.

Zhao Changyu, who was standing at the door, gradually felt relieved.

He saw Jiang Yunxi suddenly leave the banquet, and remembered that Jiang Yunxi was reluctant to enter the backyard.

He felt uneasy until someone came to disperse the banquet early and sealed the door leading to the backyard tightly.

He was worried that someone in the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion wanted to harm Jiang Yunxi.

He found a door with few guards and rushed in with sword in hand.

Only when he saw Jiang Yunxi was safe and sound did he feel relieved.

But he saw Jiang Yunxi enter a room again.

He had developed a good hearing due to his experience of marching and fighting. He could hear the sounds of a man and a woman making love in the house from a distance and felt something was wrong.

Then he walked over quickly and heard Jiang Yunxi calling Zhao Ya anxiously.

He immediately knew what had happened in the house.

In addition, through the conversation between Jiang Yunxi and Zhao Ya, he further confirmed his thoughts and knew that someone really wanted to harm Jiang Yunxi.

Zhao Changyu glared at Jiang Rang.

Jiang Rang was stared at so hard that he dared not even breathe.

It was not until he heard the noise in the house and realized that Zhao Ya wanted to kill Jiang Yunxi that he spoke up to stop her.

If the situation inside the house had not been special, he would have broken in long ago.

Jiang Yunxi changed Zhao Ya into clean clothes and combed her hair into a girlish bun.

After she was dressed up, no one could tell what had happened to Zhao Ya except for her red and swollen eyes.

Zhao Ya was very satisfied with this outfit, and finally a forced smile appeared on her face again.

She held Jiang Yunxi's arm, walked out slowly, and saw the sun in the sky again.

Zhao Ya suddenly felt that the sunlight shining on her body was very comfortable.

But when she saw those inquiring and pitying eyes looking at her, her heart, which had just calmed down, became turbulent again. She yelled hysterically, "Who? Who did it?"

Everyone in the yard knelt down and no one dared to answer.

At this moment, no one dared to offend Zhao Ya.

Jiang Yunxi spoke at the right time and pointed the finger directly at Jiang Rang, "I heard that this matter was originally aimed at me. Uncle, did you invite me here just to harm me?"

Although she was talking to Jiang Rang, her eyes were fixed on Jiang Wanwan.

Jiang Rang's eyes flickered with panic, and he thought to himself: Why didn't I tell him about this just now?

Jiang Yunxi didn't listen to Jiang Rang's excuses and continued, "I remember when I was in the garden, a little maid said that Madam wanted to invite me to the backyard. I wonder if this is true? Now it seems that Madam really has ulterior motives!"

Jiang Yunxi spoke in a deep tone, directly putting the blame on Bai Shifu.

Bai Shifu immediately kowtowed and cried out that she was innocent. "Princess, please be wise. This never happened. I have been organizing the banquet today and did not ask Yun Xi to come. The maids in the front yard can all testify for me."

Zhen Zhen sneered, "They are all servants of the Zhenguo Mansion. Madam has a say, how dare they say no?"

Bai Shifu was choked by her words and immediately wanted to defend herself.
