Di Cang’s Appears (5)
Chapter 1973 "Di Cang’s Appears (5)"
Under the afternoon sun, the door to the Monarch Manor’s halls was finally swung open for the public after so many years of closure.
Coming out first was the person they’d all been waiting to see. Donning her usual white dress of pristine cleanliness, she bestows the crowd with her glowing entrance. She’s genuinely gorgeous under the numerous gazes coming her way, which empowered that pride and graceful stride.
"I believe there’s no need for me to explain why I invited everyone here." Monarch Willow lightly smirks as she announces, "Today is my big day, I hope everyone will bless me with happiness and share in the celebration I prepared."
Amid the celebratory scene, many young men were instead weeping inside and unwilling to accept this arrangement. However, such a powerful female was undoubtedly beyond their reach no matter the desire.
"Monarch, we have heard that a woman has come to your estate and riled up trouble, is this true?"
"Yes," Willow nods and confirms the rumor to her subjects, "that woman is my husband’s mistress. She tricked my husband into leaving me for a while. I originally didn’t want to make a scene about this matter and wanted to settle this quietly behind closed doors, but that woman had the nerve to barge into my home and demand things from me. I had no choice but to arrest her for
Willow seemed to have made up the mind that Di Cang would marry her for sure today so she didn’t even think about alternatives of what’s possible.
"Guards, bring the woman up!"
"Yes, Monarch." The closest maid complied and withdrew to carry out the order.
Two attendants eventually rolled out a young girl strapped to a pillar with chains, and due to the long strands of side hair covering most of that face, no one could adequately make out the contour of this individual. Nevertheless, the miserable and pitiful appearance was plain as day to see. The girl had suffered some mistreatment before being brought to the public eye.
"So that’s the type of woman who stole the monarch’s husband? Che~ Is he blind or something?"
"Our monarch is so prestigious and powerful, what’s so good about that frail-looking harlot? Nothing but skin and bones. She doesn’t deserve to even lick the monarch’s shoes!"
"You can’t say it like that, perhaps the monarch’s husband feels inferior to his wife and needs room to vent. A white lotus like that is perfect if he’s feeling insecure. But I get what you mean. There’s no better woman under the heavens than the monarch."
Bai Yan quietly listened to everything these people were discussing and didn’t flinch in the slightest. Instead, her sight remains firmly on the woman strapped to the pillar.
Snarling in her grin after getting most of the conversation, "This monarch is very good at setting herself up in the limelight."
Isn’t that so? Not only did this Willow find a woman who was the polar opposite of herself, she also set up the perfect scenario to convince the populous that she’s the victim in a triangle relationship.
"Yan Yan…" Mo Li Shang turns to look over to the demon queen, "Aren’t you angry that she found another woman to impersonate you? Moreover, she’s fanning the crowd to insult you…."
"Angry? Why should I be angry?" Bai Yan lightly chuckles, "She can go ahead and impersonate me all she likes. Di Cang isn’t blind. Besides, there are scolding that woman over there and not me. Why should I be angry about what others want to do?"
