The Seventh Princess took a beating; her screams were so harrowing that it was painful just to hear.
Ning Yao left with mixed feelings, and once she had walked quite a distance, she asked the person beside her, "Did you see her make contact with Hui Zhen when we arrived?"
"Your Royal Highness, no."
Ning Yao's eyes narrowed slightly.
"Your Royal Highness, today's incident was clearly a scheme set by the Seventh Princess. How did it end like this?"
Chuzheng not only remained unscathed.
Her Majesty the Empress even rewarded her with many gifts as a means to comfort her.
And Hui Zhen, without even starting, just turned traitor...
"What if Hui Zhen was already bribed by Chuzheng from the beginning?"
It wasn't a mid-point bribe; it was from the start...
Today's scheme was not set by the Seventh Princess for her.
Rather, she set it for the Seventh Princess.
"The Grand Imperial Princess isn't that cunning, is she..."
