C89 Become an Abandoned Woman Overnight (1/2)
Everyone could not help but feel astonished at Liu Zhixue's actions. They did not expect her to become so unyielding, to use her death to prove her innocence. In that case, perhaps Liu Zhixue had really been wrongly accused.
If she really wanted to die, why would she be so stupid as to find a corner to crash into? The table was made of wood, not stone. Even if she were to crash into it, it would at most give her a slight scratch, so her life wouldn't be in danger.
”Your majesty, you saw it. Miss Liu used her life to prove it.” Imperial Concubine Xiao glanced at Liu Zhixue in admiration, seemingly saying that this scheme was not bad, gaining sympathy and getting rid of the suspicion.
He wanted to kill Liu Zhixue because she was Liu Zhitian's daughter. In the past, he had heard quite a bit about her, but this woman's scheming was unfathomable, and it was not appropriate for her to stay in this world. Otherwise, she would unknowingly bite back at him.
The current situation was not good for her, nor was it bad enough to be considered a heinous crime.
”Forget it. Surviving is unavoidable. Drive Liu Zhixue out of the Southern Water Country. In this life and for rest of her life, you're not going to let her take even half a step.” This was the last bit of tolerance Nangong Xiao had.
No, Liu Zhixue cried out in her heart, why did it become like this?
If she couldn't enter the Southern Water Country, she wouldn't be able to see Nangong Lin and take back everything she had lost.
This kind of punishment was even more cruel than killing her. There was no way for Liu Zhixue to accept this. She looked at Imperial Concubine Xiao for help with pleading eyes. Her hands were tightly clasped together, and it felt like she was grabbing onto the last straw of hope.
Imperial Concubine Xiao received the pleading gaze of Liu Zhixue and did not speak up for her. No one understood Nangong Xiao's personality better than her. There was no one in the entire Southern Water Country who could change his decision.
Even if it was her, she didn't have the ability. Silence was her smart choice at this moment.
”Your majesty, this humble daughter and the crown prince are now husband and wife. You can't treat me like this.” As matters stood, Liu Zhixue was still doing her best to resist, fighting for her last chance.
”That's right. Miss Liu was framed and married to the crown prince. She is also very pitiful. After losing her chastity, how could she marry anyone?” A certain official whispered.
”Ah, Miss Liu's fate is truly tragic.” The ministers did not know that Liu Zhixue's tragic fate had been chosen by herself. She had personally pushed herself down the endless cliff, and no matter how little she did, no one would be able to rescue her.
”The Crown Prince said before that he was interested in Miss Liu, so I might as well take this opportunity to marry her.” A certain minister suggested.
”This crown prince will not marry Liu Zhixue.” Nangong Zhen said those words with certainty. It was as if to him, marrying Liu Zhixue was a great humiliation.
In the past, Nangong Zhen had never hidden his love for Liu Zhixue in front of everyone's eyes. Now, the two of them had a husband and wife. He could rightfully marry her, but he refused without even thinking about it.
After all, the present was different from the past.
Currently, Liu Zhixue was only the daughter of a sinner. She was no longer the daughter of General Liu who was more than ten thousand. With Nangong Zhen's intelligence, even if he liked Liu Zhixue, he would no longer obstruct his future.
”Big brother Crown Prince.” Liu Zhixue suddenly grabbed Nangong Zhen's arm. His words had undoubtedly sent her to the eighteenth level of hell.
She suddenly felt that there was no hope left for her at all. How could she have fallen to such a state?
”What are you waiting for? Take him away.” With Nangong Xiao's command, the guards immediately took action.
”No, Your Majesty, please, don't do this to me.” Liu Zhixue cried out heartlessly. No one present dared to speak up for her.
Just like this, the curtains of this matter were drawn.
With such an unpleasant episode, the originally festive atmosphere of Yan Xiaoxi's birthday party also changed.
They all felt uneasy in their hearts. They held on until the end, and then returned to their own residences as soon as it was over.
The Southern Water Country had not been peaceful recently, and too many things had happened. The ministers were all afraid of getting into trouble and getting themselves involved.
