Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Hongye instinctively protested, "This servant did not smear Miss's reputation. This servant is telling the truth. This servant dares to swear on her life!"

Seeing everyone gossiping, Min Yue quickly turned to the King of Wu: "Your Majesty, you believe me. I did nothing. I am just an ordinary young woman who stays in her boudoir. How could I possibly have the ability to incite those navigators and then use a self-inflicted injury to gain your trust?"

When King Wu saw Min Yue's tearful, frail, and helpless appearance, his doubts were instantly replaced by heartache.

He reached out and pulled her tightly into his arms, saying in a deep voice, "Yue'er, don't be afraid, I believe you. A maid who was driven out of the manor might be acting on someone's orders to slander you!"

"Under someone's orders?" Hongye suddenly looked up, her eyes filled with grief and indignation. "Your Majesty, please see the truth! If I have uttered even the slightest lie, I am willing to be torn apart by five horses! This is a manuscript of the conspiracy between the young lady and Lord Minde that I secretly wrote down. The young lady's handwriting is also on it. Your Majesty will know as soon as you see it!" As she spoke, she took out a yellowed piece of paper from her bosom and raised it high with both hands.

The guards quickly stepped forward to take it and presented it to the King of Wu. Min Yue glanced at the Xuan paper, her pupils shrinking sharply. The handwriting on it was actually a few strokes she had casually practiced to imitate Min De's handwriting. Although not completely identical, it was seven or eight parts similar, enough to confuse the reader!

She tried to remain calm, but her tears flowed even more fiercely: "Your Majesty, this is not my handwriting at all! She must have had it forged! Hongye, how cruel you are! To take revenge on me, you actually colluded with outsiders to frame me!"

Just then, the Holy Maiden slowly stepped out of the crowd, her gaze sharp as a knife: "Min Yue, even now, do you still want to argue?"

She gestured, and two guards escorted in a man covered in wounds. "He is the leader of the navigators. He has personally confessed that he will follow your orders to threaten the court. What else do you have to say?"

The navigator had been beaten beyond recognition. He knelt on the ground and kowtowed to the King of Wu: "Your Majesty, spare my life! I was confused for a moment and was coerced by Min De and Min Yue! They said that if I forced Your Majesty to make Min Yue empress, they would give me ten thousand taels of gold!"

Min Yue's body went limp, and she could barely stand. She gripped the Wu Kingdom King's dragon robe tightly, her voice trembling with tears: "Your Majesty, they've all conspired together! My aunt and uncle couldn't stand me, so they deliberately set this trap to harm me! You can't trust them!"

"A trap?" The saintess stepped forward and sneered, "Then why did the wound on your wrist heal almost completely in just three days? How could an ordinary person recover so quickly after losing too much blood? And the dagger you used to commit suicide, we have examined it, there is no trace of your blood on it, only chicken blood!"

Min Yue almost lost her balance. Even with her quick wit, she couldn't come up with a reason to refute her.

She could only grasp at this one straw, and she sobbed bitterly, "Your Majesty, I really didn't instigate those navigators. I don't know why he suddenly slandered me. I have no way to defend myself!"

The saintess interrupted without hesitation: "Since you can't defend yourself, then don't be the queen of Li Kingdom, because you are simply not worthy!"

The sharp voice struck Min Yue's ears like a heavy hammer, causing all the color to drain from her face.

She took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

She knew very well that she now only had the King of Wu to rely on.

She must not be defeated!

Because she still wanted to avenge her adoptive father!

Thinking of this, tears welled up in her eyes.

She said in a hoarse voice, "My aunt is right. I am not worthy to be the Queen of Li Kingdom. Since all the blame has been placed on my head, then I beg the King to punish me!"

The phrase "retreat as a means of advancement" immediately made the King of Wu's face turn ashen and he frowned, remaining silent.

The saintess urged impatiently, "Your Majesty, didn't you hear her demand that you punish her? After such a thing happened, shouldn't you give the people and the court officials an explanation?"

The King of Wu finally said, "The coronation ceremony is postponed. I need to investigate everything thoroughly and give everyone an explanation!"

Upon hearing this, the Holy Maiden's tense expression eased considerably. It was fortunate that she had found a fake navigator to act out the scene; otherwise, she really wouldn't have been able to stop the King of Wu's determination to make her queen!

After King Wu finished speaking, he grabbed Min Yue and quickly left.

The crowd looked at each other, frozen in place, unsure of what to do.

After the Holy Maiden and Min Ao finished up the mess, they quickly dismissed the common people and court officials who had come to participate in the ceremony.

When King Wu brought Min Yue back to the inner palace, she cried so hard she almost stopped breathing.

He couldn't help but comfort her: "Why are you crying? Even though my sister was pressuring me, I didn't punish you in front of those people. You can see that I didn't listen to what they said!"

Min Yue buried herself in his arms, gently wrapping her arms around his waist, her cheek rubbing against his clothes, her voice aggrieved and sad: "Your Majesty, I'm so scared, scared that you really hate me, scared that I don't even have the right to stay by your side."

With the fragrant and warm jade in his arms, the King of Wu's expression changed slightly.

For some reason, he always felt that Min Yue's fragrance was captivating and made him want more.

Almost instinctively, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.

At first, Min Yue was somewhat resistant.

But after a while, she gradually started to cooperate.

Although the King of Wu also had women in his harem, they were different from Min Yue.

He felt she could drive him crazy!

He finally stopped after half an hour.

He subconsciously looked down and saw some scarlet blood on the clean brocade quilt.

It looks very conspicuous!

Min Yue's eyes suddenly reddened, and she reached out to cover his eyes: "Your Majesty, don't look, lest you offend your eyes!"

King Wu held her hand and kissed it: "That belongs to Yue'er, how could I find it unclean? Now you are truly my woman, are you still afraid of not being able to stay by my side?"

Min Yue bit her lip and looked at him: "But how do we explain this to your aunt?"

King Wu frowned: "Now, you still call her aunt? You are no longer the adopted daughter of the Min family. Min De is dead. You are my woman!"

A flash of murderous intent appeared in Min Yue's eyes, which was then filled with tears. She seemed to be taken aback by this sudden recognition, which then transformed into an intense and unyielding attachment.

She clutched the King of Wu's robe tightly, her voice choked with emotion yet filled with joy: "Your Majesty, you are so good! Yue'er finally has a home!"

She buried her face in his chest, feeling his steady heartbeat, but a calculating smile played on her lips where he couldn't see. That crimson stain just now was nothing more than a sac of blood she had prepared beforehand, which she had secretly popped when he was aroused. This act of chastity always made men cherish her even more.

This blood bag was prepared for her by her adoptive father.
