Phoenix Dance: The Eldest Daughter's Physician Consort Shocks the World

After learning that the Liu family was colluding with the Second Prince, Su Yao immediately discussed countermeasures with Lin Yu and others in the mansion.

Su Yao said with a solemn expression, "The situation is becoming increasingly complicated. The Liu family has deep roots in the court, and the Second Prince is still up to his old tricks. We must act with caution."

Lin Yu nodded and said, "Miss Su, I have sent people to keep a close eye on the movements of the Liu family and the Second Prince, but they are acting cautiously and we have not yet found any conclusive evidence."

Princess Pingyang said anxiously, "What should we do? We can't keep going on like this."

After a moment of contemplation, Su Yao said, "I remember Minister Zhang once mentioned that back then, Consort Liu, in order to frame my father, forged a secret letter of treason. That letter might be the key. If we can find it, we can prove my father's innocence and expose the crimes of the Liu family."

Lin Yu's eyes lit up: "Miss Su is right, but this secret letter has been around for many years. I wonder if it still exists, and where should we start looking for it?"

At this moment, one of Su Yao's advisors said, "I heard that back then, the Liu family hid a copy of the secret letter in their ancestral hall for safety. However, the Liu family ancestral hall is heavily guarded and not easy to enter."

Princess Pingyang patted her chest and said, "What's there to be afraid of? Even the tightest guards will have loopholes. We'll find a chance to sneak in."

Lin Yu shook his head: "We must not be reckless. The ancestral hall is the sacred place of the Liu family. They will definitely guard it closely. If we go there rashly, we may alert them and get into danger."

After pondering for a moment, Su Yao said, "I have a plan. Young Master Lin, do you remember that martial arts master we met before who is skilled in disguise? We can ask him for help to disguise ourselves as members of the Liu family and enter the ancestral hall to find the secret letter."

Lin Yu agreed, "This plan is feasible. I'll go and make the arrangements right away."

A few days later, with the help of martial arts masters, Su Yao and her companions successfully obtained a copy of the secret letter. However, before they could celebrate for long, the Liu family discovered that the letter had been stolen, immediately placing the entire city under martial law and launching a widespread search for suspicious individuals.

Su Yao and the others were hiding in a secret base. Lin Yu said worriedly, "Miss Su, the Liu family will definitely not let this go. We must find a way to deliver the secret letter to the Emperor as soon as possible, while ensuring our own safety."

Su Yao nodded: "Young Master Lin, I know a secret passage that leads to the palace. We can enter the palace from there and meet the Emperor directly, so as to avoid any unforeseen complications."

So, under the cover of night, they entered the palace through a secret passage. The Emperor was very surprised to hear that Su Yao was requesting an audience, but he still summoned her to the hall.

Su Yao presented the secret letter to the Emperor and explained the whole story: "Your Majesty, this secret letter is evidence of the Liu family's framing of my biological father, Chu Feng. General Chu was devoted to the country back then, but he suffered this injustice. I implore Your Majesty to thoroughly investigate this matter, clear my father's name, and give the court justice."

The Emperor stared at the secret letter, his face grim, remaining silent for a long time. After a while, he said, "This matter is of great importance, and I will send people to investigate it thoroughly. Su Yao, you go back first, and do not make any further noise until this matter is clarified."

Even after leaving the palace, Su Yao and the others remained vigilant. They knew that the Liu family and the Second Prince would do everything in their power to salvage the situation, and might even resort to desperate measures that could be detrimental to them.

Sure enough, a few days later, the Second Prince, together with officials from the Liu family, turned the tables in court, accusing Su Yao of fabricating evidence to slander court officials and disrupt the order of the court.

Su Yao remained calm and composed in the court: "Second Prince, do not make false accusations. This secret letter is absolutely genuine. It was obtained from the Liu family ancestral hall. You have been secretly colluding with the Liu family to frame loyal officials. Your intentions are despicable!"

Both sides stuck to their own versions of events, and the argument raged on in the court. Seeing this, the Emperor roared in anger, "Stop arguing! I will send people to investigate thoroughly. If anyone dares to cause trouble behind this, I will not let them off lightly!"

After the court session, Lin Yu said to Su Yao, "Miss Su, although the Emperor did not express his opinion on the spot, I could tell that he already had doubts. What we need to do next is to continue to collect evidence and at the same time strengthen our own security precautions."

Su Yao nodded slightly: "Young Master Lin is right. I'm worried they might target the people around us. Go and make arrangements to send more people to protect everyone."

However, they underestimated the ruthlessness of their opponents. On her way back to her residence, Princess Pingyang was suddenly attacked by a group of men in black and seriously injured. Upon hearing the news, Su Yao was frantic with worry: "The princess suffered this ordeal while helping me; I will never let those murderers get away with it!"

Lin Yu clenched his fist: "Miss Su, rest assured, I will definitely find out who is behind this and make them pay the price!"

During the treatment of Princess Pingyang, Su Yao unexpectedly discovered a unique mark on the man in black. Through investigation, she found that this mark was related to a mysterious force cultivated by the Liu family. This further solidified Su Yao's determination to bring down the Liu family and the Second Prince…
