Chapter 405 Frame the Crown Prince
Before Dong Yingying's hand could even touch Shen Pei's clothes, Wei Xin kicked her away.
"How dare you attempt to assassinate the Crown Prince!" Wei Xin shouted.
Dong Yingying was kicked three feet away and fell to the ground, feeling as if all the bones in her body were broken. Ignoring the excruciating pain, she immediately knelt down and begged for forgiveness, "Your Highness, please forgive me, I did not attempt to assassinate you..."
She tried to explain, but Wei Xin interrupted her, "Since it wasn't an assassination attempt, why did you reach out and touch His Highness the Crown Prince? Don't you know there's a difference between men and women?"
Wei Xin naturally saw through Dong Yingying's thoughts. However, since his prince and the crown princess had such a good relationship, only someone who didn't know what was going on would dare to walk into the line of fire. Shen Pei shouldn't say these things, so it was natural for him to say them.
Shen Pei did not refute, thus acquiescing.
Dong Yingying was speechless and looked extremely embarrassed.
Following behind Shen Pei were high-ranking officials of the court. They had already seen through Dong Yingying's little scheme. She was simply using the fact that she was soaking wet and that she could use the excuse of having physical intimacy with Shen Pei to marry into the Crown Prince's residence.
Such a despicable and shameless act has truly disgraced the Dong family. Perhaps Lord Dong himself was involved in this matter.
"How shameless!"
"The Dong family is known as a breath of fresh air in the political arena, yet they have raised such a shameless daughter!"
"I just saw that Miss Dong didn't want that maid to save her. Could it be that she wants His Highness the Crown Prince to save her?"
"Bah! What kind of thing is she? Does she even deserve our esteemed Crown Prince to save her!"
"I suspect that Lord Dong wants to use his daughter to climb the ranks further."
……
Every word of these unpleasant comments reached Dong Yingying's ears. Her secret was exposed, and her pale face suddenly turned red, then blue, and finally gray.
If she cannot marry into the Crown Prince's household, her reputation will be ruined.
Seeing that the time was right, Shen Pei spoke coldly, "Yu Xiang, take some men and escort Miss Dong back to her residence!"
His indifferent dismissal of Dong Yingying from the mansion already revealed his attitude.
“Yes, Your Highness.” Yu Xiang walked up to Dong Yingying and said calmly, “Miss Dong, please.”
After giving his orders, Shen Pei didn't look at Dong Yingying again and led his group away.
Dong Yingying remained kneeling, gazing intently at Shen Pei.
“Miss Dong, let’s go!” Yu Xiang’s tone was cold and disgusted.
Dong Yingying replied, "My legs went numb from kneeling for so long."
Yu Xiang's tone grew even colder, "Since that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony!"
With a single glance from her, several old women beside her immediately grabbed Dong Yingying and dragged her away.
"what!"
Dong Yingying screamed, and only after Shen Pei's figure completely disappeared did she reluctantly look away, shouting loudly, "Ouch, my stomach hurts, I need to go to the toilet!"
Seeing that her buttocks were clenched tightly, Yu Xiang worried that her stench would soil the Crown Prince's carriage, so she looked at the old woman and said, "Take her there! Keep an eye on her!"
"Yes, Miss Yu Xiang."
Yu Xiang went to arrange the carriage, and several old women went to guard Dong Yingying.
However, Dong Yingying was still too cunning.
Yu Xiang arranged the carriage but didn't see the old woman bring Dong Yingying, so she turned back and ran into the old woman who was in a hurry. She asked, "Where is Miss Dong?"
“They ran away!” the old woman replied.
"She ran away?" Yu Xiang's expression turned cold. "I know where she went!"
"Your Highness, you must do justice for me! I have lost my innocence. If you don't do justice for me, I can't go on living!" Dong Yingying rushed into Song Siyao's bedroom, knelt down in front of Song Siyao's bed with a thud, and cried loudly.
"Yingying, what happened to you? Didn't you go to see the young master and young lady? Why are you all soaked?" Song Suxin was surprised. Seeing that Dong Yingying's lips were white from the cold, she quickly ordered the maid to go out and get some spare clothes.
Seeing that Song Suxin had already asked all the questions she wanted to ask, Song Siyao stared at Dong Yingying, waiting for her answer.
"This humble woman fell into the water and was seen naked by His Highness the Crown Prince. I beg Your Highness the Crown Princess to do justice for this humble woman." Dong Yingying lowered her head, a cold glint flashing in her eyes.
Song Siyao is currently in her postpartum period, and hearing about this would probably make her furious.
After all, Song Siyao is no longer able to serve Shen Pei, and Shen Pei is also dealing with other women he has taken a fancy to.
The idea of "one love for life" is just a lie.
Dong Yingying looked smug.
Who would have thought that Song Siyao, who was so proud and arrogant and had a love that everyone envied, would fall into her hands?
"Your Highness, please don't be angry. His Highness the Crown Prince is a man, and it's normal for him to have emotions and desires. Now you..."
Song Suxin gently advised Song Siyao, "Yingying is a young woman standing in front of His Highness the Crown Prince. It's normal for His Highness to have thoughts about her. You must not question His Highness. Otherwise, His Highness will think you are jealous. As a legal wife, when you can no longer serve your husband, you should take in new concubines for him."
"In this way, everyone will praise the Crown Princess for being virtuous and generous, and His Highness the Crown Prince will cherish her even more."
Song Siyao sneered, "Madam Dong is right. I hope that when Lord Dong takes a new wife, Madam Dong will be just as magnanimous and virtuous."
Song Suxin's heart suddenly raced, but she quickly calmed down. What could Song Siyao possibly do to her? Her husband was devoted to her, and she was the only one by his side until now.
Before she could think further, Song Siyao's voice rang out again.
"Miss Dong, when you fell into the water, was only His Highness the Crown Prince seen you?"
"Yes." Dong Yingying lied; all she wanted now was for Song Siyao to agree to let her into the manor immediately.
As long as Song Siyao agrees, she will definitely be able to marry into the Crown Prince's household.
After all, she was quite beautiful, so why would Shen Pei refuse her?
In her view, the reason Shen Pei had never taken a concubine was because Song Siyao was too fierce; it was Song Siyao who prevented Shen Pei from taking a concubine.
"Only you and His Highness the Crown Prince were present at the time. How can I believe what you said is true? What if you deliberately framed His Highness the Crown Prince in order to marry into the Crown Prince's household?" Song Siyao's tone turned even colder.
Perhaps because her aura was too domineering, Dong Yingying hurriedly explained, "At that time, not only were I and His Highness the Crown Prince present, but also many other ministers, who can all testify."
"Since that's the case, and so many people have seen what you looked like, why do you insist on making His Highness the Crown Prince take responsibility for you?"
Song Siyao demanded, "Furthermore, you dared to deceive me, the Crown Princess, by saying that only you and His Highness the Crown Prince were present at the time. Do you know what crime that is?!"
