The Deadly Hitwoman: The Heiress's Special Abilities-Chapter 351: An Utter Disgrace!

The faces of the Crown Prince and Su Xingyan had both turned as black as the bottom of a pot; one looked worse than the other.

Yet both dared not truly confront Su Yu and could only watch helplessly as Su Yu walked away.

The Crown Prince, filled with rage with nowhere to vent it, flung his sleeve at Su Xingyan: "This is your doing!"

Su Xingyan felt almost unsteady even standing; clearly, he was the most aggrieved one today.

His former fiancée, a woman he had finally come to like, was now to marry his Imperial Uncle... and all he could do was watch helplessly.

Even more absurd, Han Yuxiao standing up in such a manner allowed all the civil and military officials to know that after Su Xingyan annulled his engagement with Han Jing, he still wished to marry her, even willing to claim responsibility for an illegitimate child, a disgrace beyond words!

Su Xingyan felt his life suddenly plunged into darkness, not knowing how he managed to leave the Imperial Palace.

The Han Family members were also stunned with anger by Han Yuxiao; they never expected that at such a moment, Han Yuxiao would stand up to acknowledge such a thing. Wasn’t that courting death? Now that the Emperor was about to decree a marriage between Han Jing and Su Yu, this indirectly meant that the Emperor did not oppose an alliance between the Eldest Princess and Prince Yu.

What does this imply? General Han was no fool; he had remained neutral in the court for years, naturally for self-preservation. Previously, he intentionally sided with the Crown Prince, after all, among all the princes, only the Crown Prince was most valued by the Emperor.

But now, the Emperor was clearly hesitating. The Emperor’s health was deteriorating, and he summoned the Fourth Prince and Prince An back to the Capital City, likely due to the issue of succession.

Originally, the Crown Prince had an advantage; but now, with the Eldest Princess and Prince Yu allying, they would certainly lean towards the Fourth Prince’s side. Prince Yu had wealth, and the Fourth Prince had military power. Moreover, the Eldest Princess always had a murky relationship with Duke Wei. In contrast, the Fourth Prince’s chances seemed greater.

Now his precious daughter had managed to offend both sides for him. This was indeed troubling General Han. At this point, which side should he support?

He was practically driven to frustration by this daughter!

But she was still his child, and General Han quickly had Mrs. Han take her back home. She had just stood up and admitted to that matter, which was as good as telling the Eldest Princess and Prince Yu that she had harmed their beloved. Who knew how they might settle this score later!

Additionally, she also ruined the Third Prince’s plans at this critical moment. Even considering past connections between the Third Prince and their residence, it’s likely this won’t blow over! The Crown Prince is not an easy patron to lean on!

General Han was worried beyond measure. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

But speaking of feeling upset, there was someone even more upset, and that was Prince An. How did his potential son-in-law suddenly slip away?

How was he supposed to explain this when he returned home?

Just as he was in this dilemma, someone came over quietly to tell him that the Crown Prince wished to see him.

Prince An, an old hand, understood what it likely meant when he heard the Crown Prince wanted to see him. He hesitated for a moment before he agreed. Holding the military power of the Southern Land, which was pivotal to Nanyao Country, with the Eldest Princess and Su Yu allying and standing on the Fourth Prince’s side, the Crown Prince’s position was precarious. Naturally, the Crown Prince was seeking to win him over during this time!
