The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Sickly Prince Strategy Manual

"Auntie, you can't talk nonsense when it comes to such a serious matter as murder." Someone advised.

"That's right. A few days ago it was her daughter who was causing trouble, and now it's her mother who is causing trouble. There is no peace in this family." Another voice echoed.

The old lady beat her chest and cried, "I am not talking nonsense. My daughter has been missing for three days. If she hadn't been murdered, how could she have disappeared? You have to give me justice!"

Yun Shang kept her lips tightly shut, but Liu Mei'er beside her spoke up: "Your daughter is missing, go report it to the police! My young lady is very busy with her work, not like you who are free all day looking for trouble, so bored."

"Yes, just report it to the police." The onlookers expressed their agreement.

Seeing this, the woman tried to step forward and grab Yun Shang's hand, shouting, "Come on, you cruel woman, come with me to see the official."

Liu Mei'er hurriedly stopped her and rebuked her rudely, "Just go and report to the authorities. We'll go our own way. Who would want to go with you to see the authorities? If there is evidence, the officials will naturally come to summon us. How can you be allowed to act recklessly here? You want to drag my young lady to the authorities. Who do you think you are?"

"Yes."

"A country woman with no manners."

"How can we expect someone who can act wild on the street to know the rules?"

Everyone expressed their dissatisfaction with the woman's rudeness and unreasonableness.

At this moment, the situation suddenly changed. A young man stepped forward, pointed at Yun Shang, and said righteously: "It was her. I saw it with my own eyes. She stabbed a woman with a sword, and then she and the maid beside her threw the woman's body into the moat!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. The originally noisy street suddenly became silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on Yun Shang and Liu Meir.

Yun Chang's face turned pale in an instant, and Liu Meir's eyes widened in shock, and she was at a loss for a moment.

The people who had just blamed the woman began to whisper and talk.

Some looked doubtful, while others looked shocked and angry.

When the woman heard the young man's words, she became even more crazy. She rushed towards Yun Shang and tried to catch her, shouting, "Give me back my daughter, give me back my daughter!" The scene instantly fell into chaos.

Yun Chang looked at the young man coldly, "You claim to have seen me stab a woman?"

"And threw the body into the moat?"

"That's right!"

"Zilan, my poor daughter."

When the woman heard this, she burst into tears.

Suddenly, as if she had found a life-saving straw, she grabbed the young man's hand tightly and said, "Good-hearted man, come with me to see the official. This vicious woman will definitely not have a good ending!"

The young man was reluctant at first, but under the woman's tears, he finally nodded in agreement.

As the woman walked away, she turned back and cursed Yun Shang: "You poisonous scorpion woman, just wait, I want you to pay for my daughter's life. Even if she is a lady from an official family, my daughter's life is not a life."

The two men left cursing, leaving behind a group of spectators who were still in a state of shock.

Yun Shang curled her lips and left with Liu Meir.

"No way, that young lady looks so gentle and refined, can she stab someone to death with just one sword?"

"That's right. If you don't want to cancel the engagement, then don't do it. Marrying her can suppress the concubine. How can there be any reason to kill someone?"

"The thoughts of the official lady are not something that we ordinary people can guess. Let's wait for the government's decision."

"Yes, it's too early to say anything now. Nothing is certain yet."

"Yeah, wait and see! I'm afraid there will be results in a few days."

After everyone discussed it for a while, they all dispersed.

This wave of gossip soon reached Huo Beixuan's ears.

That’s right, he hadn’t seen Zi Lan for the past two days, and he thought she had understood and stopped coming around him, but he didn’t expect her to disappear.

Huo Beixuan gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "What a troublemaker, he is not at peace at all, what are you doing now?"

He just couldn't believe that Yun'er would kill someone. She must have been framed.

Unconsciously, Huo Beixuan thought of Ning Xue.

"It must be this vicious woman. How did Yun'er offend this crazy woman? She is capable of doing anything bad!"

Huo Beixuan rushed to the Yun Mansion, but was naturally turned away.

The woman dragged the young man to the government office, but was soon kicked out.

"How can you talk about murder so casually? Wait until you find the body and come back. If you continue to act like this, you will be beaten."

The woman trembled with fear, and the young man took the opportunity to run away.

The woman still felt resentful, so she ran to the market again, sat on the ground crying and looking for her daughter, and scolded Yun Shang for killing her daughter.

The story became more and more outrageous.

The person involved, Mr. Huo, was extremely troubled and ordered Huo Beixuan to find the woman as soon as possible and settle her down, otherwise, both the father and son would not have a good life.

Huo Beixuan had no choice but to suppress his anger and took the woman to the backyard of his mansion to stay temporarily.

Yun Shang was already surrounded by rumors, and her initial engagement to that unknown illegitimate child had already made Yun's father lose face.

At that moment, rumors were rife that Yun Shang had killed her concubine out of jealousy and hatred. Regardless of whether the rumor was true or not, her hope of finding a satisfactory marriage in the future was slim.

When Father Yun heard these rumors, he slammed the table in anger and said, "This is ridiculous! How could my daughter be like this? I must find out who is slandering my daughter like this. It is totally unreasonable!"

The rumor was spread very vividly, and Ning Xue was definitely behind the scenes fanning the flames.

Everyone was looking forward to the day when a female corpse would float up from the moat to prove that Yun Shang was a vicious woman.

Unexpectedly, just two days later, a female corpse really floated up in the moat, and Yun Shang was immediately summoned to the government office.

Yun Shang looked at the woman and the young man kneeling on the ground and just smiled coldly in her heart.

Ning Xue, it was you who started the trouble first, not me. How could I just tolerate it without fighting back?

Lord He of the capital suddenly slammed the wood of the hall and shouted, "Yun Shang, the woman in the hall accused you of killing her daughter. Do you plead guilty?"

"Sir, I don't recognize you." Yun Shang looked calm.

"You vicious..." The woman was about to open her mouth to curse, but Lord He shouted at her: "Quiet!" The woman had no choice but to shut up, but still stared at Yun Shang viciously.

"Yun Shang, there are witnesses who accuse you of killing Zi Lan and throwing the body into the moat with your maid."

"Sir, just interrogate me. I will never plead guilty." Yun Shang remained calm and composed.

She knew very well that Lord He was an honest official and could not be bribed by Ning Xue.

At this time, Ning Xue probably didn't dare to let her father, the Shangshu, come forward, so she was fearless.

What Ning Xue did this time might be completely unknown to her father, the Shangshu.

Yun Shang firmly believed that as long as she was innocent, she would be able to clear her name in court.
