Sitting in the comfort of her temporary home, a soldier barged in and Xiao Jun was grabbed by the arm and dragged outside. Yun Long had gone out to meet the Prince again.
She glared at the people and straightened up as she fought back against them, grabbing her sword from under the steps and unsheathing the sharp piece of metal.
Fighting with three soldiers at once, she managed to wound them all and sent them running. Going inside, she tended to the cut wound on her arm and changed into the outfit from a few days ago. Dressed with the Huo family emblem on her, she slipped on the pristine white mask and walked outside, the common folk gasping as they saw her appearance.
"It's her! She's the girl who claimed to be the General's wife! She was there the whole time!" someone yelled out, they swarmed around her but left her a big circle. Stopping in her tracks, she smiled at the people around her.
"People of Han! I, Feng Xiao Jun, Princess of the Suo Kingdom, and wife of General Huo Yun Long, have come to reveal something that the Crown Prince, your future Emperor, has done." she exclaimed, standing her ground, voice loud and strong.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at her.
"It's her! It really is the General's wife!" A woman yelled, soon, people began to kneel in respect. They didn't think that the General's wife would still be alive. Due to her family being such a powerful family in Suo, lots of resources were sent to the countryside secretly as help and all the small villages and such knew of the foreign kingdom's help, having a deep respect for them.
"Your Crown Prince tried to kill me and then tried to kill General Yun Long! Two years ago, my husband was kept in the palace supposedly under arrest as the Crown Prince sent a maid to the Huo Manor, her sole reason? It was to make me go into labor prematurely and then to take my child into the palace. While giving birth prematurely, they surrounded our manor, shooting flaming arrows and throwing explosives into the manor. Thankfully, we have the good fate of being safe and made it out alive, both of us, along with our children."
Everyone was shocked to find out of such a ruthless thing that the Crown Prince did. With that kind of Prince, would Han still be a safe place?
Being grabbed by different guards, Xiao Jun allowed them to take her to the palace, dragging her into the main hall and throwing her in front of the Crown Prince.
Looking down, she heard someone walk in from behind.
"I finally get to meet you. The woman who is going around and claiming to be the general's wife." He chuckled. Slipping on a mask, Xiao Jun looked up at the prince and had a scowl on her face.
"Why claim to be someone's wife when I am his wife?" She said, getting up.
Prince Ning frowned at her lack of respect when she got up. "His wife? His wife is long gone! She's dead!" He laughed loudly as he listened to her speak. This woman must be insane!
Letting out a small chuckle and a smirk, she pulled her mask off and watched as his laughing face turned into horror when he saw her.
No way..she cannot be alive..can she?!
"Dead? Then...do you believe that the dead can come back to life?" She joked, advancing towards Prince Ning.
This so called Crown Prince was the same Prince that had held her husband under arrest, caused her to go into labor prematurely, and even tried to kill her in order to get rid of her husband.
One must reap what they have sown.
And now was the time for reaping.
Prince Ning, already being in his denial and crazy like state, called for guards to come in.
The doors opened and instead of guards, there was Yun Long and his men from the old army. Oh how much those soldiers missed their former general. When they heard of their general's so called 'death', not a single one of them wanted to fight on.
"Capture her and throw her into the dungeons!" Prince Ning exclaimed, not even turning to see Yun Long.
"Oh? You want me to capture my own wife and bring her to the prison?" Yun Long chuckled.
Eyes widening at that voice, Prince Ning turned to see Yun Long and the army he had tried to get rid of.
"Y-you! How did you get in? I had guards everywhere!"
Pointing at Yun Long, Prince Ning's face was red and he looked ready to explode.
"Your highness! All of your guards have been dismissed by Imperial Father!" Another voice exclaimed.
Up on the throne was Prince Ling and the Emperor. Frowning, the Emperor saw how bad of a prince his legitimate son was. This son of his had been coddled too much by his mother and look what has happened. He has been easily corrupted and all his wrong doings have been overlooked.
"F-Father! You have to get justice for me! They're trying to frame me!" Prince Ning exclaimed, quickly walking over, pushing Xiao Jun and going to kneel in front of his father.
One second he was kneeling and then he was laying on the ground the next. Standing in anger, the Emperor pointed at Prince Ning. "You! You are not a son of mine! With all your crimes and wrong doings, you shouldn't even be heir to the throne! Oh my heavens! How I have been blind all this time!" Falling over a bit, Prince Ling held him up.
"Imperial Father, please watch your health and do not become too agitated."
Nodding, the Emperor looked back at Prince Ning, "Look, Prince Ling cares for me greatly even if I haven't treated him well and he has corrected your wrong doings as best as he could. Also! Who do you think you are to try and kill General Huo and his wife?! Don't think about trying to overthrow me any day! This old body still has some time left." He threw back his sleeves and sat down on the throne.
Staring at the two in horror, then anger, Prince Ning lunged at Prince Ling, attempting to injure him but in his now crazed state, couldn't think straight and just ended up tripping, hitting his head on the corner of the table.
