Chapter 204 Nothing to see
Chapter 204 Nothing to see
Lu Hui hurriedly stepped forward and told her mother everything she had just experienced. However, her mother did not believe her and thought she was dreaming or had hallucinations because of the great shock.
"Mom, what I said is true! I really saw it..." Lu Hui explained anxiously.
"Okay, okay, stop talking!" Mother Lu interrupted her. "I think you are frightened by that princess from the Western Regions, that's why you are talking nonsense. She must be trying to make you mentally collapse, and then find a way to get rid of you. You must not fall for her trick!"
Lu Hui was shocked when she heard her mother's words. She had doubts about the princess of the Western Regions, and now she felt that her previous guess was correct. It must be the princess of the Western Regions who did this, in order to make her lose her mind and lose her composure.
Thinking of this, Lu Hui secretly vowed to find evidence to prove her innocence and make the princess from the Western Regions pay the price.
From then on, Lu Hui began to try every possible way to find evidence. She asked around and even sneaked into some forbidden areas of the palace, hoping to find some clues. However, she returned empty-handed every time, which made her very frustrated.
However, Lu Hui did not give up. She knew that as long as she persisted, she would find the truth one day. In the following days, she worked harder to find clues and did not miss any possible opportunities.
At the same time, the cunning eyes of the Princess of the Western Regions seemed to have seen through Lu Hui's actions, and she began to monitor Lu Hui more closely and took a series of strict preventive measures. However, these actions did not make Lu Hui feel afraid or retreat. On the contrary, they were like a spark that ignited the blazing flame of fighting spirit deep in Lu Hui's heart. She secretly made up her mind that no matter how rugged and difficult the road ahead was, she must unswervingly fight with the Princess of the Western Regions to the end and seek justice for herself.
On a sunny day, Lu Hui accidentally learned an important piece of news: the palace was about to hold an unprecedented grand banquet, and the princess of the Western Regions would also be invited to attend the banquet. She knew that this was undoubtedly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so she decided without hesitation to disguise herself as an ordinary palace maid and sneak in, hoping to find crucial evidence during the banquet.
When night fell and the lights came on, the entire banquet hall was illuminated by the dazzling lights. Lu Hui, dressed in the clothes of a palace maid, quietly hid in the crowd, silently watching the words and actions of the Princess of the Western Regions. At this moment, she keenly noticed that the Princess of the Western Regions had left the noisy banquet hall without anyone noticing when everyone was not prepared. Seeing this scene, Lu Hui was secretly happy and immediately followed her quietly.
The Princess of the Western Regions walked lightly into a secluded and slightly gloomy room, while Lu Hui approached the door nervously, trying to hear any slight sounds coming from the room. Unexpectedly, the door suddenly opened without any warning, and the Princess of the Western Regions stared at Lu Hui with her cold eyes. The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere instantly became extremely tense...
"What are you doing here?" The voice of the Princess of the Western Regions exploded in the air like thunder, making people's eardrums hurt.
Lu Hui's heart suddenly tightened, but she tried to keep herself calm and stammered, "I... I was just passing by here."
"Just passing by?" The Princess of the Western Regions snorted coldly, with a disdainful smile on her lips. "Do you think I will believe such a ridiculous excuse of yours?"
After saying that, the Princess of the Western Regions took a step forward and approached Lu Hui step by step. Her eyes were as cold as frost, flashing with a frightening cold light.
Lu Hui stepped back involuntarily. With every step she took, her heartbeat became more intense. "What...what do you want?"
"What do I want?" The Princess of the Western Regions suddenly stopped and said with a tone full of sarcasm, "Haven't you always wanted to find evidence to prove your innocence? Well, today I will fulfill your little wish and show you the so-called evidence!"
Before she finished speaking, the princess of the Western Regions waved her jade hand and a brilliant light suddenly flashed. Then, a clear picture appeared on the wall. In the picture, Lu Hui was talking happily with a man, and that man was the culprit who framed Lu Hui!
Lu Hui's eyes widened, her face full of disbelief, "This...what's going on? How is this possible?"
"What? Don't you understand after seeing this picture?" The Princess of the Western Regions' laughter became increasingly sharp and piercing, full of contempt. "Is this the evidence you have been looking for? Unfortunately, it is just an illusory image created by my magic. You are so naive that you are stupid enough to believe such a thing!"
Lu Hui's face turned pale as paper in an instant. She had never expected that all her hard work would go to waste.
However, at this moment, the Princess of the Western Regions suddenly changed her tone and said, "But..." There seemed to be a hint of teasing and sarcasm in her voice, as if she was looking at a prey that had fallen into a trap.
"If you are willing to be loyal to me, then I may consider sparing your life." The corners of the Western Princess' mouth rose slightly, revealing a chilling sneer.
Lu Hui gritted her teeth, her heart filled with anger and indomitable will. She stood up straight, stared at the Princess of the Western Regions without fear, and answered firmly: "I will never yield to you!"
Hearing this, the eyes of the Princess of the Western Regions became even more cruel and ruthless. She snorted coldly and pounced on Lu Hui again, her movements were swift and fierce, and it was obvious that she was really angry.
Lu Hui swiftly dodged the attack from the Princess of the Western Regions, and at the same time, she grabbed a vase beside her and threw it at the Princess of the Western Regions. The vase drew an arc in the air and flew straight towards the Princess of the Western Regions.
The princess of the Western Regions dodged the attack of the vase with ease. The vase hit the wall and shattered into countless pieces, which scattered on the ground.
Taking advantage of this brief gap, Lu Hui turned around and ran towards the door without hesitation. At this moment, she had only one firm belief in her heart - no matter what, she must expose this false evidence!
But how could the Princess of the Western Regions let her escape so easily? In just a few steps, the Princess of the Western Regions had already caught up with her. Seeing that she was about to be caught by the other party, Lu Hui's heartbeat became more and more rapid, and beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Just as the princess of the Western Regions was about to reach out to grab Lu Hui, suddenly, a sharp arrow shot at her like lightning, aiming at the princess of the Western Regions. Faced with this sudden change, the princess of the Western Regions had to dodge sideways to avoid being hit by the arrow.
The appearance of the arrow seemed to bring a ray of hope to Lu Hui, allowing her to see the hope of life. She seized this rare opportunity, quickened her pace without hesitation, and rushed to the door like a gust of wind. At this moment, she had only one unshakable belief in her heart: no matter how many hardships and thorns were waiting ahead, she had to grit her teeth and persevere to make the truth known to the world!
"Who?" The princess of the Western Regions opened her eyes wide and shot her sharp gaze in the direction where the arrow came from. With a roar, a figure slowly walked out of the darkness. When the person came closer, Lu Hui was surprised to find that this person was actually her best friend, Lin Yu. "Lin Yu, why are you here?" Lu Hui was surprised and happy, with an unbelievable look in her eyes.
"I learned about your current situation, so I rushed here to help you." Lin Yu responded to Lu Hui softly, holding her hand tightly, "Let's leave here without delay!"
The two of them ran out of the palace side by side in perfect harmony. Behind them, the angry roar of the Princess of the Western Regions echoed. After successfully escaping from danger, Lu Hui and Lin Yu took a short rest, and then made up their minds to embark on the road of finding conclusive evidence together, vowing to clear their names.
