Chapter 277 A Substitute Bride's Brave Love, A Prince Without Heirs Forever By Her Side - 7
Her cries grew louder, “Sister, how could you join Father and Mother in slandering me?”
Mu Keke immediately distanced herself from the prince. In any case, she would not marry the prince; she was just putting on an act.
If the prince could punish him now and drag him out to be beaten to death, that would be good too.
“My dear sister, you can’t drag us down with you. I advise you to take the initiative to tell the prince the truth. Confess and you’ll be treated leniently; if you resist, you’ll be punished severely. Maybe the prince will take pity on you and spare your life.”
The entire Mu family delivered solid performances, and Mu Wanwan was waiting for Mu Keke to get involved on her own initiative.
If they had greeted her with smiles when she got home today, and everyone had moved on from the matter, she wouldn't have done this.
Her gaze fell on the three people kneeling on the ground, and she silently apologized in her heart, "I'm sorry, dear mother, father, and my sister who loves me the most! All of this is because of your relentless pressure. Please don't blame me."
She wiped away her tears as she got up from the ground, and Aunt Mei quickly helped Mu Wanwan to her feet.
"princess!"
For some reason, Aunt Mei actually felt sorry for the Princess, as she sensed that the Princess had a feeling of being isolated and helpless.
"Thank you, Aunt Mei, I can do it!"
She turned to look at the four people opposite her, and suddenly smiled sadly.
"Your Highness, since you all believe it's my fault, and I'm going to die anyway, I'll just take my own life here."
Father and Mother can both keep the betrothal gifts from the Prince's Mansion and remarry Sister to the Prince, thus preserving your wealth and honor.
Thus, the prince was able to marry his sister and make her his princess.
Zhuo Yucheng's sleeve twitched, and when he saw Mu Wanwan's gaze fall on the pillar behind him, his heart tightened.
His heart told him that he might be wrong!
After saying that, Mu Wanwan rammed into the pillar behind him.
"Wanwan, no!"
Her head didn't hit a hard pillar; instead, she heard a muffled groan from above.
She looked up and saw the prince clutching his stomach, staring at her.
She quickly helped the prince up, "Your Highness, are you alright? Why are you stopping me? My death is the best option."
He subtly reached out and wiped away her tears, saying, "Don't cry~, you're all covered in tears!"
Mu Wanwan placed her hand on his abdomen and gently rubbed it, trying to relieve his pain.
"I never said I wanted you to die!"
She didn't intend to die; she was certain that the prince wouldn't stand idly by, which is why she took this risky move. In the end, just as she predicted, the prince did intervene.
But when she heard him say that he wouldn't kill her, she finally felt relieved.
She helped him sit down, then knelt before him.
“Your Highness, I know I have no witnesses to prove my innocence. I am willing to relinquish my position as Princess, shave my head and become a nun, to pray for my sister and Your Highness, and never leave my home again.”
Zhuo Yucheng, it's up to you to choose!
Mu Keke never expected that the usually timid girl would be so principled, first by threatening to die to prove her innocence, then by shaving her head to become a nun, each step pushing her to the brink of despair.
"Your Highness, Wanwan has already married you. If you make her shave her head and become a nun, you will ruin her life!"
Mu Keke quickly pleaded for Mu Wanwan, and Zhuo Yucheng's gaze fell on Mu Keke.
He suddenly remembered Mu Wanwan's words: had he asked her sister if she was willing to marry him?
"Coco, I discussed it with Wanwan yesterday, and she will temporarily assume the position of Princess. Since Wanwan is also willing to give up her position today, will you marry me?"
Mu Keke was startled, and then glanced at Mu Wanwan with resentment out of the corner of her eye.
Well, Mu Wanwan actually set a trap for her last night.
"Your Highness, if word gets out that my sister and I are to share a husband, how will my Mu family maintain its standing here!"
Scheming bitch!
If you don't want to, then just give in!
“Your Highness, you and my sister don’t need to have a wedding. Not many people know whether you are marrying me or my sister. Just bring my sister to the palace to be your princess. At that time, Father and Mother can announce to the outside world that I have seen through the world and become a nun. Outsiders will definitely not use this time to gossip.”
Mu Wanwan actively offered suggestions and solutions to Zhuo Yucheng and Mu Keke.
"Your Highness, if this is how it is, I'd rather be dead." Mu Keke pretended to cry, making it clear that she would not marry into the royal family.
Zhuo Yucheng's gaze on Mu Keke had changed; he wasn't stupid about what had just happened.
Mu Wanwan was willing to die to prove her innocence, while Mu Keke was the exact opposite. Mu Wanwan tried her best to make room for her, but she kept declining.
All the correct answers point to Mu Wanwan; what Mu Wanwan said is the truth.
Mu Wanwan was not favored in the Mu family, so Mu Keke sided with her parents, while the servants present, who still had to work for the Mu family, naturally dared not get involved in the mess.
He got up, helped Mu Wanwan up, and pulled her into his arms.
"My Queen Consort has been wronged! It's all my fault!"
"Ding, favorability increased by 10, current favorability is 15."
The pig jumped for joy, "Master, your move of putting yourself in a desperate situation and then surviving has proven that Zhuo Yucheng believes you and understands that the other side is framing you for lying."
Mu Wanwan's palms were sweaty. She was also afraid of dying. She wouldn't have done this if the other side hadn't been so bullying.
Now it was Mu Wanwan's parents and sister's turn to be dumbfounded.
Everyone was pondering the meaning behind the prince's words.
Mu Wanwan cried in his arms like a wronged child, clutching the prince's clothes tightly and refusing to look up.
Aunt Mei also understood the prince's meaning and immediately scoffed at the people below the hall.
The family bullied the princess, a weak woman, but fortunately the prince was wise and was not fooled by their petty tricks.
Aunt Mei instantly felt sympathy for the princess's experiences in the Mu family over the years. Her biological parents didn't love her, her sister disliked her, and she grew up in a loveless family.
Fortunately, the princess was not affected by these factors and remained as beautiful and kind as ever.
She actually had a bold idea: why didn't the prince just go with the flow? In her opinion, the princess was a million times better than Mu Keke.
“You have distorted the truth. Considering that you are Wanwan’s relatives, I will spare your lives this time.”
Mu Keke, if you are unwilling to marry, I will not force you.
From now on, Wanwan will be my queen. Since you all dislike her so much, whether she still acknowledges you as her parents is entirely up to her.
Mu Wanwan did not expect that Zhuo Yucheng would actually stand on her side.
"Let's go. I think you don't need to come back to this house anymore."
Despite the pain in his abdomen, Zhuo Yucheng picked up Mu Wanwan and carried her away without giving anyone else a glance.
Aunt Mei followed closely behind, and the servants who had accompanied her to carry the gifts back to her parents' home also left.
After everyone left, the three members of the Mu family collapsed to the ground.
Realizing what had happened, Mu Keke stood up and confronted her father, "Father, why did you bring up the matter of the substitute marriage? Now look what's happened, it's backfired. The Prince has already decided we were wrong, and that bitch Mu Wanwan got away with it."
