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

Soon, Huo Beixuan also arrived at the court.

He was completely confused at first, but as soon as he saw the handkerchief, he immediately understood the whole story.

Before Lord He asked, he took the initiative to speak: "Lord, I thought this handkerchief was given by Yun'er at first, so I went to ask her, but it turned out not to be hers, so I threw it away. I really don't know who picked it up again."

He firmly believed in his heart that it must be that vicious woman Ning Xue who sent people to follow them.

"Since this handkerchief is not Yunchang's, whose is it?" Lord He slammed the wood of the hall and shouted, "This handkerchief is exactly the same as the one on the corpse. If you don't explain clearly, you will be highly suspected. You, confess the truth!"

Huo Beixuan was stunned for a moment. How could he start this? Should he say that he had gone back to get an embroidered handkerchief just to threaten Yun Shang? After a long while, Huo Beixuan still couldn't think of a suitable word.

Lord He became more and more impatient when he saw this, and slapped the wood again: "Huo Beixuan, are you going to tell it or not?" Huo Beixuan immediately broke out in a cold sweat.

Yun Shang, who was standing aside, either out of sympathy or some other hidden agenda, actually said, "Sir, could you please listen to what I have to say?" Sir He nodded silently in agreement.

Yun Chang hesitated for a moment and said, "Yesterday, when Huo Beixuan came to see me, he took out this embroidered handkerchief and said, 'Yes, yes...'"

Yun Chang's face showed an embarrassment, as if she couldn't find a way out. She glanced at Huo Beixuan and continued, "He said that as long as I agree not to cancel the engagement, he won't present the handkerchief to the court."

As soon as he finished speaking, "Wow..." the crowd outside the government office suddenly became noisy.

"What a shameless guy!" people accused him.

What on earth is going on here? Why is he threatening to not cancel the engagement?"

"No, that's called shooting yourself in the foot."

Lord He slammed the wood of the hall and said, "Silence."

"What happens next?" asked Lord He.

"Later, I naturally refused. It wasn't mine, and it wasn't mine after all. But I felt that the handkerchief must have been made temporarily by Huo Beixuan in order to force me to obey."

"I firmly believe that Huo Beixuan is not the murderer." Yun Shang was still nervously defending Huo Beixuan.

At this point, Huo Beixuan had nothing to hide and had to tell everything.

Lord He summoned the embroiderer to the hall to confirm the matter.

"Nonsense!" Lord He shouted, "Huo Beixuan has flouted the law. Take him away and give him ten strokes of the cane."

Yun Shang glanced at Huo Beixuan coldly, then turned and left.

But this wave of rumors was instantly diverted.

Previously, it was rumored that the concubine was killed by Yun Shang and her body was thrown into the moat. Now, people have changed their stories and say that Huo Beixuan killed the concubine because she destroyed his happy marriage.

In short, there are different opinions.

Yun Zhongtang was so angry that he slammed the table. "Fortunately, Yun'er is a sensible person. If she hadn't been careful enough, Huo Beixuan would have succeeded. I'm afraid this marriage will be difficult to dissolve."

"How abominable!" Yunmu patted her chest and was secretly scared. Her daughter didn't even discuss this matter with her. She has really grown up and has her own ideas.

……

Huo Yuanzhong was very disappointed with him and felt a splitting headache when he saw Huo Beixuan kneeling in the study.

Why did you have to produce a handkerchief? It would be fine if you just said it, but you also had to produce evidence. Do you think your life is too long?

Huo Yuanzhong had a lot more white hair overnight.

At this critical moment, the concubine Zilan unexpectedly showed up at the government office.

She sued Huo Beixuan for attempting to murder her.

This move pushed Huo Beixuan to the forefront of public opinion.

Yun Shang did not go to listen to the testimony. She did not care much about it. The only thing she cared about was her broken engagement.

After that, Liu Meir often went out and talked about the news she had heard as a pastime.

It is said that Zilan accused Huo Beixuan of stabbing her with a sword and throwing her into the moat.

Although the man was wearing women's clothes at the time, she recognized him as a man. Even at night, she was sure that the man was Huo Beixuan.

Huo Beixuan refused to admit it and insisted that Zilan had mistaken someone in the middle of the night. The two accused each other and argued for several days.

Because of this incident, Huo Yuanzhong hadn't slept for several days. He couldn't ignore it. If he had a son who committed a crime, his career would be greatly affected. Therefore, he also used many of his connections.

Even Lian Yunzhongtang went to beg, and readily handed over the letter of withdrawal of engagement, just asking Yunzhongtang for help.

In the end, due to insufficient evidence, no witnesses or physical evidence, no conviction could be made based solely on Zilan's testimony.

Huo Beixuan managed to escape the disaster, but he also lost his official position because of the incident.

Huo Beixuan became a laughing stock in the capital.

A person with bad character will ruin his future.

Yun Shang felt happy after hearing this. It was great. In the original book, the revenge of the female supporting role was finally avenged.

Now, she has called off her marriage and has no more involvement with the scumbag male and female protagonists.

From then on, no matter how the hero turned over a new leaf or how the heroine schemed against the hero's original wife, it had nothing to do with her. She just watched the fun.

……

Suddenly, a long string of firecrackers rang out outside the gate, and the person announcing the good news rushed in hastily, "Madam, it's a success, the young master has won the first place in the imperial examination."

Ning Xue, dressed in the attire of a first-rank imperial lady, was anxiously waiting in the hall. When she heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "My son has great potential."

Huo Beixuan was also very pleased and said proudly: "How can the son of the prime minister be bad? It really proves the saying that a good father will have a good son."

Ning Xue smiled sweetly.

At this moment, a voice called out, "Miss, Miss."

The shout woke Ning Xue up. She sat up, looked around her boudoir, and sighed softly. It turned out to be a dream.

"Miss, it's time to get up. Today is the Imperial Concubine's birthday. You must go out early and go to the palace." The maid reminded.

Ning Xue nodded, yes! Today is her sister, the imperial concubine's birthday.

Speaking of her elder sister Ningxia, she was an enemy of Prince Shangguan. She insisted on marrying Prince Shangguan, which made her elder sister unhappy, and the two sisters have been like strangers since then.

Now, she has plotted against Prince Shangguan and has created a grudge with him. Her relationship with her sister will probably be better, so she should try her best to win over her sister.

"Get ready!" Ning Xue stood up. "Are there any news about Yunshang today?"

The maid shook her head and said, "Ever since Miss Yun broke off the engagement, she has never left the house."

"What about Mr. Huo?" Ning Xue asked anxiously.

"Mr. Huo drinks in the wine shop every day, and often comes back half drunk at night."

"Miss, I don't understand why you care so much about Mr. Huo?" The maid looked confused.

"You don't need to ask too much about this matter. You just need to pay attention to his news." Ning Xue waved her hand.

Ning Xue secretly planned in her heart. She intended to lend a helping hand to Huo Beixuan when he was frustrated. This way she would surely win his heart. She really couldn't let go of the dream of becoming the prime minister's wife.

In that dream, she was wearing the clothes of a first-rank lady, her son was the top scorer in the imperial examination, and her daughter became a princess. How glorious and wonderful it was.

Whenever she recalled that dream, she would be intoxicated by it and didn't want to wake up. She knew very well that as long as she held Huo Beixuan in her hands, that wonderful dream would have the possibility of becoming a reality.

Because of this, she always paid attention to Huo Beixuan's every word and action, just waiting for the perfect opportunity for her to show herself.
