The fake daughter was not exposed today

"Then, what should we do?" The girl she rescued first looked at her.

Her name was Eleanor, and she worked as a florist. She had no other skills except for a few flower pruning techniques. If she hadn't been rescued by Jing Yilan, she would have probably committed suicide after being insulted by those people.

If Jing Yilan abandoned them at this time, she didn't know what to do. If the others did the same, the entire team might collapse.

Jing Yilan remained silent.

She really didn't know what she should do.

She rushed into saving people without giving any thought to what to do next. But she couldn't ignore Jiang Fu's safety for these random people.

Being a good person is indeed much more difficult than burning, killing and looting in a fit of rage.

The eager looks of the crowd made her even more anxious.

"She's only eighteen years old and still has some issues to think through. You might as well give her more time to consider. After all, this matter concerns everyone's future, so it really can't be decided hastily."

Lin Zishan, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke.

Jing Yilan stared at him, "Brother Lin..."

She really couldn't make a decision easily at this time, but fortunately Lin Zishan was willing to share some of the pressure with her at this time.

"If you want to go find your friends and don't want to keep them with you, I can take them to a safer place for you," he planned.

But if Jing Yilan really abandons them, it is possible that some people will leave.

Jiang Jing Yilan quietly observed everyone's expressions. Under the dim light, every trace of pleading and uneasiness was clearly visible.

"Ms. Jing, can we follow you for a while? Just a little while." The speaker was a middle-aged man wearing a safety helmet. The wrinkles around his eyes made the eagerness in his eyes even more intense.

Jing Yilan clenched her fists.

Those who stir up chaos only need to calculate how much they can profit from it, while those who are innocently involved in the dispute don’t know how to build a new life.

It was like she was standing on the beach.

She took a deep breath and said, "Would you like to follow me to the palace? It might be dangerous there."

If Jiang Fu hadn't done anything then, she probably wouldn't have known what to do. Now, the same thing happened to the people in front of her, so she would try to lead them to find a way out.

Go to the palace, find the culprit of this chaos, and seek justice.

The capital of the Ximan Empire, the royal palace, and the council hall.

A woman with a baby-like face sat at the head of the table and looked at the people around her. "Duke Richard is rebelling and trying to restore Wayne. How do you think this will end?"

She looks like a doll, contrary to the image of a queen in most people's minds. She is more like a princess protected by the queen.

The old minister suggested, "Your Majesty, I believe Richard cannot die yet. With Nosti's current situation, someone must be held accountable. If Richard dies at this moment, how will we explain this war? He must be tried in court to serve as a warning to others."

"No, Richard's life or death is insignificant at this moment. The most important thing is the safety of Nosti's people, especially the foreign citizens still in the city." Another young minister spoke.

The young queen simply clasped her hands together, her eyes filled with a girl's compassion. "Sir Philip is right. Thinking of the people suffering in Nosti City right now, I feel pity. But I'm afraid all I can do is pray for them."

As she spoke, she clasped her hands together.

Everyone who saw her would say that she was a king who cared about the people. As for the discordant voices saying that she was weak, they had long been drowned out.

The basement of the palace.

"Sister Ran, what is going on now?"

Sheng Zhou felt uncomfortable in the house and wanted to go out, but was frightened by the loud noise outside and stepped back.

"Calm down, we will be fine anyway." Jiang Yiran comforted him.

This is Nosti's landmark palace. Even if chaos really comes, there will not be any major losses.

Sheng Zhou thought for a moment and looked at her, "Sister Ran, aren't you very familiar with that Duke? Why don't you ask him what's going on now?"

"Alright." Jiang Yiran looked at the butler, "I want to say something to the Duke."

The housekeeper just looked at her and kindly rejected her.

"Under the current circumstances, signals are used by important people first. Miss Jiang, please don't waste each other's time."

"What do you mean?"

"Miss Jiang, please don't be so self-righteous." The butler simply turned cold and said, "You can't bring food and supplies to the Duke, nor can you fight in the battlefield. You are just a guest visiting Nosti."

"Behind me is the Eternal Island."

"You said it too, it's behind my back. Even though I have the Duke behind me, don't you still look down on me?" His voice was tinged with sarcasm. "Everything you have was given to you by Timeless Island, but how much of Timeless Island's current power is your own contribution? You know it well."

He had seen many people like Jiang Yiran who were of noble birth but had no practical experience. Such people had nice titles and many people would pay for them, but now, to Duke Richard who was doing something big, they were no different from the grass on the roadside.

Jiang Yiran's face turned ugly. From childhood to adulthood, she had been protected by Xie Zhen, and no one dared to offend her.

She didn't know that for the butler who loyally followed Richard, this was a critical period. Once Richard failed, they would be a group of desperadoes. At this time, who would care about the feelings of a small fry who relied on his power to bully others?

"Don't worry, Miss Jiang. When the Duke is free, he will naturally take care of you. Before that, please behave yourself." The butler turned and left.

Since everything has been said, there is no need to be so respectful to her anymore.

Jiang Yiran felt a pang of pain in her heart. It was hard for her to describe how she felt now. The real world finally revealed its cruel nature to her. Her joys and sorrows were not important at all to this world.

She sat back in her original seat and stared at the table quietly.

Sheng Zhou couldn't bear to see his boss being bullied. "What does he mean? Sister Ran, I'm going to go talk to him."

After saying that, he chased straight out the door.

Jiang Yiran did it silently, not paying attention to what he said.

The streets are bustling tonight. People who have nowhere to go follow a dim light and head towards the palace.

A few people who caught sight of the light noticed the well-organized team and followed them involuntarily.

At the front of the team, a girl with long black hair was holding a lantern with a determined look on her face.

The tabloid reporter who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead seemed to be shocked by this strange parade. He instinctively raised his camera and took a picture of the scene.

Then he followed and nudged the person next to him with his elbow.

"What are you going to do?"

"Go to Wayne Palace and demand an explanation from the person who started this chaos."
