Chapter 1186 - 1192: Young Master Save Me (1)
Huan Qiu recounted the events, and Cai Wei ordered all the unrelated bystanders to leave. Public opinion is something to be feared—if it were to become known that Fei’er had once been abducted by the Prince of Guangling, it would damage her Maiden’s Reputation!
After hearing Huan Qiu’s account, Huo Yuan was shocked beyond measure. In his mind, Aunt Bi had always been a resentful woman confined to her Deep Chamber, day in and day out, with her heart set on nothing but gaining his favor. Never had he imagined that she would conspire with Outside Men and devise a Poisonous Plan to entrap Fei’er, nearly causing her to lose her honor and almost leaving him too ashamed to face Cai Wei again. This woman was truly malicious!
Knowing she could not deny her actions, Aunt Bi continued to kowtow to Cai Wei and Huo Yuan, crying, "Big cousin, it was Bi Lian who momentarily lost her senses, blinded by foolishness. Please, for the sake of our Childhood Sweetheart past, plead to the Empress Dowager for mercy on Bi Lian’s behalf and show me leniency this one time..."
"Bi Lian swears she will never dare again, big cousin, I beg you..."
Huo Yuan glared at her with a pale face for a while, then turned to Cai Wei and said, "I apologize. It’s my lack of strict household management that has caused your whole family such great trouble. This woman’s actions are indeed detestable. Leave her to Ying Tianfu for punishment. Whatever charges they see fit, let them press—don’t consider my feelings!"
Hearing this, Bi Lian burst into loud weeping. "Cousin, if anything happens to me, my aunt will be heartbroken. You don’t have to do this for my sake, but for the sake of my deceased mother and my aunt’s face, please help Bi Lian. I don’t want to die, and I don’t want to be thrown into prison..."
As she spoke, she started to kowtow with such force that Thud Thud Thud, her head was soon bleeding from the impact!
