The Legend of the Princess' Counterattack

The atmosphere in the palace was solemn. The prince sat in the main seat in the study, his face gloomy, holding the so-called evidence tightly in his hands. Yun Yao was taken to the study by the guards. She was prepared in her heart, knowing that this must be Liu Yan'er's frame-up.

Yun Yao walked into the study and bowed slightly: "My concubine greets the prince."

The prince looked up at Yun Yao, his eyes full of doubt: "Yun Yao, let me ask you, how do you explain these evidences?" As he said that, he threw the evidence in his hand in front of Yun Yao.

Yun Yao looked down and saw that the evidence showed her correspondence with suspicious people outside the palace, as well as some blurry portraits that seemed to be scenes of her meeting strangers. Yun Yao sneered in her heart. Liu Yan'er really went to great lengths to frame her.

"Your Highness, these evidences are all forged. I am loyal to your palace and have absolutely no ill intentions." Yun Yao raised her head and looked at the prince with firm eyes.

The prince frowned: "The evidence is irrefutable, how can you prove that these are forged?"

Yun Yao said calmly, "Your Majesty, please take a look at these letters. First of all, my handwriting is very different from the handwriting on these letters. I have been learning calligraphy since I was young, and I am very familiar with my handwriting. Although the words on these letters deliberately imitate my handwriting, if you look closely, you can still find many flaws. For example, the thickness of the strokes and the strength of the turns are different from my habits."

The prince picked up the letter and looked at it carefully. He did find some differences, but he still had doubts: "Just because the handwriting is different, it is not enough to prove that these evidences are forged."

Yun Yao continued, "Your Highness, look at these portraits again. Although the woman in the portrait is somewhat similar to me, you can still find many differences if you look closely. I have a small mole behind my ear, but the woman in the portrait does not have it. Also, I usually like to wear light blue dresses, but the woman in the portrait wears a dark blue dress. These details can prove that the woman in the portrait is not me."

After listening to Yun Yao's explanation, the prince's doubts were slightly reduced, but he still did not completely believe Yun Yao: "Even if these evidences have flaws, it cannot completely rule out the possibility that you are colluding with suspicious people outside the palace."

Yun Yao was a little anxious, but she knew she couldn't panic at this moment and had to deal with it calmly. She took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, since I married into the palace, I have always been faithful to my duties and never stepped out of the palace. How could I have colluded with suspicious people outside the palace? Moreover, I have been practicing hard, hoping to help Your Majesty. If I really had evil intentions, why would I practice so hard?"

The prince was silent for a moment, as if thinking about Yun Yao's words. Seeing that the prince was wavering, Yun Yao continued, "Prince, I know that you attach great importance to the safety of the palace, and I also understand that you have doubts about me. But please believe me, I have no second thoughts. If you are still worried, you can send someone to investigate my whereabouts. I am willing to accept any investigation."

The prince looked at Yun Yao's determined eyes, and the doubts in his heart gradually dissipated. He knew that Yun Yao was right. If she really had evil intentions, why would she face his questioning so calmly? Moreover, Yun Yao had always behaved very well in the palace, without any abnormality.

"Okay, I will believe you for now. But I will send someone to investigate this matter. If I find that you are really colluding with suspicious people outside the palace, I will never let you off easily." The prince said seriously.

Yun Yao heaved a sigh of relief, knowing that she had temporarily overcome this difficulty. But she also knew that Liu Yan'er would not give up, so she had to be more cautious.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Highness. I will cooperate with the investigation and prove my innocence." Yun Yao bowed again.

The prince waved his hand, signaling Yun Yao to leave. Yun Yao turned and left the study, but her mind was full of thoughts. She knew that Liu Yan'er would not give up, and she had to find a way to deal with Liu Yan'er's next frame-up.

Back in her room, Yun Yao sat at the table and fell into deep thought. She thought of her life in the modern world. Although there were not so many intrigues, she also had her own troubles and pressures. Now, she came to this strange world. Not only did she have to face the difficulties of cultivation, but she also had to deal with Liu Yan'er's frame-up. She didn't know how long she could hold on, but she knew that she couldn't give up.

Yun Yao stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the scenery outside. In the garden of the palace, the flowers were in full bloom, colorful. But Yun Yao was not in the mood to appreciate these beautiful scenery. She had only one thought in her mind, that is, to improve her strength as soon as possible. Only when she was strong could she gain a foothold in this world and protect herself and the people around her.

Yun Yao decided to continue practicing, she wanted to make herself stronger. She returned to the table, took out the secret manuals and ancient books, and began to study them carefully. She wanted to find more practice methods from these books and improve her practice speed.

While Yun Yao was concentrating on her cultivation, Liu Yan'er was furious in her room. She didn't expect Yun Yao to resolve her trap so easily, and even made the prince suspicious of her. Liu Yan'er was filled with resentment and anger, and she decided to take action again, and she must make Yun Yao lose her reputation.

Liu Yan'er called her trusted maid and ordered, "Go and keep an eye on Yun Yao and see if she does anything. If you find anything unusual about her, report to me immediately."

The maid took the order and left. Liu Yan'er sat on the chair with a vicious look in her eyes. She swore that she would make Yun Yao pay the price.

At this time, the people sent by the prince to investigate have also begun to act. They are divided into several groups to investigate Yun Yao's whereabouts, interpersonal relationships, etc. They do not miss any details, hoping to find the truth as soon as possible.

After several days of investigation, the investigators found some clues. They found that the letters in the evidence were forged by a man named Li Si. Li Si was a charlatan who specialized in forging various evidences to defraud money. The investigators found Li Si, and after some interrogation, Li Si admitted that he was instructed by Liu Yan'er to forge the evidence.

The investigators reported the news to the prince, who was very angry when he learned the truth. He did not expect Liu Yan'er to be so bold as to forge evidence to frame Yun Yao. The prince decided to punish Liu Yan'er and let her know her mistakes.

The prince summoned Yun Yao again and told her the results of the investigation. Yun Yao was overjoyed, knowing that she had finally cleared her name.

"Yun Yao, I have wronged you. I didn't expect Liu Yan'er to be so insidious that she dared to forge evidence to frame you. I have punished her, confined her to house arrest for a month, and reduced her monthly allowance." said the prince.

Yun Yao bowed and saluted: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of me. I believe that Your Majesty will see through everything and will not be deceived by the treacherous people."

The prince looked at Yun Yao, feeling somewhat guilty. He knew that his suspicion of Yun Yao had wronged her, but he was also concerned about the safety of the palace.

"Yun Yao, don't worry. I will not doubt you easily anymore. You should practice well and help me solve my problems." said the prince.

Yun Yao was touched. She knew that although the prince was strict, he was also a reasonable person. She decided to work harder in her cultivation and serve the prince.
