The Eldest Daughter Reborn: She Provoked the Obsessive Crown Prince and Couldn't Escape

The doll of the nineteenth prince was buried under the maple tree at her instruction to Xiao Liu'er.

Xiao Liu'er, who is now "serving" Zhengzheng at Fu Luan's private residence and has become half a human pig;

She was the maidservant Fu Luan encountered when he presented the "Horse Trampling a Flying Swallow" to Yuan Lu, who was then the Prince of Youbeiping.

She was sexually abused and humiliated by Yuan Lu day and night; it was Fu Luan who rescued her from Yuan Lu's clutches and lewd den!

Knowing that Yuan Lu had arrived in Chang'an, Fu Lu wrote to him arranging to meet him in the maple forest where they had first met.

Fu Luan was initially apprehensive about whether Yuan Lu would successfully take the bait.

She never expected it to be done so easily! She underestimated Yuan Lu's shamelessness and overestimated his intelligence!

Seeing that Yuan Lu was blinded by lust and agreed to have sex with her without any regard for anything else, she felt relieved.

Following the plan, Yuan Lu walked step by step toward the coffin and grave she had designed for him!

"Lady Langya, did you come to the palace in the dead of night just to testify against your former husband?" The Emperor's words were laced with sarcasm.

But anyone with eyes could see that his eyes and tone softened the moment he saw Fu Luan.

Fu Luan bowed and said, "Your Majesty, that is indeed true. This humble woman is willing to testify as the deposed Crown Princess."

"When Marquis Changyi was the crown prince, he buried nearly twenty puppets for witchcraft under different trees in the Eastern Palace!"

"As for the one from the nineteenth prince's side..."

Fu Luan paused for a moment, then continued, "Because the nineteenth prince was born after Yuan Lu moved to the Right Beiping Prince's Mansion;

"So it wasn't unearthed in the East Palace along with the other puppets!"

"Wife, are you crazy? Wife, you can't do this to me!" Yuan Lu roared.

Fu Luan glanced sadly at the good-for-nothing—he still hadn't realized his predicament;

She had no idea that everything that started with the divorce from the Crown Prince was a scheme she had orchestrated!

The Emperor glanced at him disdainfully and said, "Oh? Then why didn't you mention a word about the newly unearthed puppet when you were in the Eastern Palace? And why..."

The Emperor leaned close to Fu Luan and whispered in her ear, "Since you two have already divorced;

"And how do you know which tree in his mansion holds the doll that cursed Little Nineteen?"

Fu Luan remained calm and composed, as if he had been prepared for this. "Your Majesty, 'witchcraft' has always been a serious matter. Discovering even one case is a crime that implicates nine generations of one's family!"

"But on that day in the Eastern Palace, two dolls, one of Xiao Jiu and one of a commoner, appeared one after the other. The Emperor only deposed the Crown Prince and made all the palace servants of the Chuyuan Palace pay for it!"

"Then he even bestowed the title of Right Beiping Prince upon the deposed crown prince... Your Majesty, I am still only a fourth-rank Lady of Langya County;

"At that time, there wasn't even a proper official title or edict, so how dare you accuse the Prince of Youbeiping, your son?"

"If you believe me, that's fine. But if you don't... I'm afraid it will be me and the Fu family who suffer!"

The Emperor smiled enigmatically, his attitude unreadable. "Oh? Then why do you dare to do it now?"

"According to A-Luan herself... you are only a fourth-rank Lady of Langya County now!"

Fu Luan rubbed the hem of her clothes and said in a low voice, "Because I... want to clear Xiao Jiu's name... and get justice!"

This is the last chance... If we fail again, everything will be back to square one, or even worse!

Not only will Xiao Jiu return to the cage, but she herself will too...

“Father, I heard with my own ears that the rape of the Rouran princess was framed by my sixth brother!”

"I hope Your Majesty will see this clearly!" Yuan Jia, with a clear mind and bright moon, Yuan Jia who wanted to "play music in harmony" with Fu Luan, Yuan Jia who wanted to avoid suspicion but did not avoid it, appeared in this palace.

"Seventh Prince is here too... Haha! This is getting more and more interesting!" The Emperor pondered for a moment, then burst into laughter!

"Seventh Brother, she's gone mad, and you've gone mad too? Oh, I see!"

"You're just like that bitch Xiao Jiu, coveting my wife! But... hahaha!"

"She is not the eldest daughter of the Fu family at all. You can't become the crown prince even if you win her favor!" Yuan Lu knew that he was doomed this time, so he exposed Yuan Jia's secret in public.

Everyone knows that Yuanjia had no wife or concubines, but only a beautiful woman lived in his heart. Who else could this beautiful woman be?

"Slap him!" the Emperor roared.

But is this anger to protect his other son, or to protect Fu Luan?

"Crash!" The sound of something falling and breaking was heard. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and found that the puppet of the nineteenth prince had been smashed.

And it was Fu Luan who smashed it!

"Your Majesty, please look, this is a letter written by the Marquis of Changyi."

"He wrote down everything he had done on paper and hid it inside this puppet!" Fu Luan pulled out the slip of paper from the fragments and handed it to the Emperor himself.

He raped the Rouran princess, ruined the marriage alliance plan, and framed his ninth brother, Yuan Jiu;

He practiced witchcraft to curse his parents, brothers, and wife;

Using "Horse Trampling the Xiongnu" instead of the state gift "Horse Trampling the Flying Swallow" undermines the alliance ceremony;

To silence witnesses, they hired an assassin to kill the Eighth Prince, Yuan Xi...

As for prostitution, keeping prostitutes in one's household, and adultery with one's wife's sister-in-law, these are the most insignificant parts of it!

"You beast, you beast! How could I have given birth to such a beastly son!" The emperor was furious again, kicking Yuan Lu repeatedly, and no one in the hall dared to stop him!

“Father...you cannot listen to that vile woman’s family’s words; I did not write that.”

"Really! You can check my handwriting and you'll know..." Yuan Lu fell to the ground, not daring to say that the emperor had just kicked his old leg injury.

Fu Luan sneered inwardly: "Hmph, it's a pity you even know how to check handwriting..."

The Emperor sent someone to bring Yuanlu his old homework, crumpled the paper into a ball, and threw it on the ground, saying, "Look for yourself!"

Yuan Lu then shakily unfolded the two crumpled pieces of paper. The handwriting on his homework and the paper that revealed his crime were exactly the same!

"This, how is this possible... Father, someone must have imitated my handwriting..." Yuan Lu was on the verge of tears.

"Who can imitate it stroke by stroke exactly? Tell me!" the Emperor roared in anger.

Yuan Lu lay on the ground, looked up at Fu Luan, moved his lips, but ultimately did not say anything.

From the time of his wedding until he was deposed as crown prince, his studies were done by his crown princess.

If he were to speak out about this, he would surely clear his name; but even Fu Luan didn't know why he hadn't testified against her, but instead...

“I acknowledge everything else, except for one thing… that puppet in the former Eastern Palace that was turned into a human pig, I didn’t make it!”

"It's that bitch Zhengzheng! I've never cursed my wife!" These were the last words Yuan Lu spoke in his capacity as "Marquis of Changyi"...

The feud spanning two lifetimes has come to an end just like that… Fu Luan was both amused and exasperated.

Her entanglement with Yuanlu and Zhengzheng began with witchcraft and ended with witchcraft...

Marquis Yuan Lu of Changyi committed witchcraft and cursed the emperor; this alone is a capital offense!

He was stripped of his imperial surname and reduced to a commoner, just like the former Eighth Prince. He even lost the character "碌" (lu) in his name!

Ultimately, he was sentenced to death by a thousand cuts!
