The words of the King of Qin shocked the entire audience.

Cui Anren's mouth hung wide open, as if it could fit an egg.

I slowly emerged from behind the screen, bowed to the King of Qin, and glared at Cui Anren: "Your Highness, this scoundrel is full of lies. It's clear that he and Zhou Xuezheng's daughter Zhou Yan had a secret affair. He can't bear to let go of the power and support of the Zhou family, nor can he let go of my inheritance, scheming to take over my body. If I don't follow him, I'll move out of the Cui family immediately. I know well how vicious these scoundrels are, afraid of being poisoned by them, so I spent a lot of money to hire Mr. Luan Zhong from the Weihai Escort Agency for protection. The relationship between Mr. Luan Zhong and me is crystal clear, as clear as day and night!"

As soon as Zhou Yan saw me, she cursed: "You despicable person, you're still alive!"

I rolled up my sleeves to show everyone the bruises on my arms.

There were bruises of varying depths all over my arms. I coldly smiled at Zhou Yan: "I wasn't abused to death by your lover Cui Anren, you must be disappointed."

Zhou Yan pulled a hairpin from her hair bun and lunged towards me: "I only regret not getting rid of you earlier."

This woman attacked too quickly, before I could react, I saw the hairpin about to stab my face.

Suddenly, a tall man rushed in from outside the tent, kicked Zhou Yan over with one foot, and she rolled on the ground several times before stopping.

I covered my panicked heart, turned my head, and to my surprise, the one who saved me was Luan Zhong.

After a few days of not seeing each other, he looked thinner, with more injuries on his body, but still had sharp eyes and extraordinary handsomeness.

"Second Brother, why are you here?" I was amazed.

Luan Zhong rushed over, frowned, and looked at my arms: "Did Cui Anren do this?"

Like a child who had been wronged, I suddenly burst into tears.

"Don't cry." Luan Zhong raised his hand, gently rubbing my shoulder, and said softly, "I will never let you suffer any grievances in the future."

I nodded tearfully, "You haven't said yet, why are you here?"

Luan Zhong bowed to the King of Qin: "This morning, Your Highness secretly had me taken out of prison, told me about your situation, and asked me to listen outside the tent." He looked at me, his eyes full of distress, "Are you not valuing your life? With such serious injuries, how dare you rush day and night on the road!"

I bit my lip lightly, "I only know that if I'm a step slower, you'll be in more danger."

At this moment, Cui Anren, burning with jealousy, glared at me and Luan Zhong, shouting, "You shameless adulterers, in the presence of the King and the nobles, you are so intimate, it's clear you have an affair. Ji Wanwan, you cheat on your husband, you deserve to be punished."

Just as Luan Zhong clenched his fist, ready to punch this scoundrel.

The King of Qin sitting at the head suddenly spoke, "Cui Anren, watch your words. If you dare to slander the honor of the King's daughter again, the King will kill you."

Cui Anren was so shocked his jaw almost dropped, "The... the King's daughter?"

The King of Qin snorted, then turned to Zhou Yan cowering in the corner, "Knowing that Cui Anren has a fiancée, yet shamelessly pursuing him, then turning to admire the handsome Luan Zhong, failing in love, and even letting her father frame others. Just now, she attempted to assassinate the King's daughter in front of the King. What a wicked woman. Guards, slap her!"
