Divine Doctor Mo’s treatment gradually improved Xiao Tianyao’s legs conditions . However, Divine Doctor Mo still can’t guarantee that his legs would return to its original state . But, he can make sure that Xiao Tianyao would be able to stand up and walk .
Hearing such news, they should be jumping from happiness . But, Xiao Tianyao and his wife were not . Because… …
There was a big commotion going on from the outside!
*
Early this morning, a group of scholar students gathered and shouts tremendously outside the Xiao Wangfu . Because they want Xiao Tianyou to get out and confess his sins to the family of the deceased soldiers .
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu knows that someone deliberately made a rumor out of Xiao Tianyao’s gossip plan about him taking a break to political issues to focus taking care of his wife .
However, because of that someone, his said gossip plan turns into a more and more dramatic case . And soon, Xiao Tianyao became a hypocrite, coward, lustful and a military exploiter in the eyes of the citizens . And now, the citizens are even thinking that Xiao Tianyao’s achievements were fake . And that he only robbed it to someone else .
Obviously, that someone who instigated those rumors has a nose and eyes to the details in the palace because his depicted information sounds so real . And if Lin Chujiu herself didn’t know Xiao Tianyao personally . She might even think that those rumors were true .
While the rumors were spreading, the palace court officials even dare to make another movement by impeaching Xiao Tianyao’s mentor due to being corrupt . And because of the said corruption, it gave birth to the death of ten of thousands of soldiers during the war . And because of it too, the family of the deceased soldiers didn’t even receive a penny that they should have received . And due to their miserable state, the family was forced to sell their children and daughters .

In just a short moment, this issue in the palace court immediately spread in the capital . So, Xiao Tianyao’s reputation hit the very bottom . And now, in the eyes of all the citizen of East Country, Xiao Tianyao is no longer the God of War of the East . Instead, he became the Sinner of the East .
And all of this happened because of Lin Xiang, Lin Chujiu’s father .
Fortunately, in regard to this matter, Xiao Tianyao didn’t say anything nor speak about it to Lin Chujiu . After all, her attitude recently shows that they were merely a father and a daughter in named .
Another fortunate thing is that, Xiao Tianyao didn’t get angry nor blamed her . Which is very different to his attitude before . Because of this, Lin Chujiu had a little peace of mind .
However, this is a moment where she shouldn’t forget that she is her father’s daughter, so she needs to be very careful . She can’t control the wind and rain from outside, she can only do her best . So, if Xiao Tianyao will ask for more effort, she’ll try to finish them too . Lin Chujiu wanted to discuss this with Xiao Tianyao to try settling the matter, but she didn’t expect… …
The corruption issue that hasn’t been proven yet will already turn the citizens into madness and incite trouble in Xiao Wangfu .
“Wangye, the scholar students that had gathered outside keeps shouting in anger . There were some old and young family members of the deceased and wounded soldiers too . They want Wangye to give a statement . ” Housekeeper Cao reported while constantly patting his sweats: “The guardsmen have blocked the gates, but if those group of citizens will still force their way inside . I’m afraid it won’t take long before…”
Xiao Wangfu didn’t expect that things would turn out like this, so they don’t know how will they end this up . In order to force Xiao Tianyao to get outside, the Emperor didn’t even hesitate to act to this extent .
“Get ready, Benwang … …” Xiao Tianyao said, but he hasn’t finished his words when Lin Chujiu interrupted him by saying: “Wangye, I’ll go, let me deal with it . ”

Lin Chujiu stand up and said without any hesitation . She is not sure if she could settle the issue outside, but she must stand up because there was no other choice .
With Housekeeper Cao’s report, she can imagine what will happen to Xiao Wangfu . This is because of her father, so if Xiao Tianyao will get into an accident, she could only blame herself . She could no longer stay in Xiao Wangfu if it will be destroyed . And if her father succeeds, he will definitely not let her stay as Princess Xiao .
However, even if Xiao Tianyao can get out from this predicament . She can’t guarantee that Xiao Wangfu won’t be put in a difficult position . After all, they didn’t let her prepare from this .
“Wangfei, those people outside are acting like crazy . They don’t have a sense of propriety right now . It will be bad if Wangfei will meet them . ” Housekeeper Cao came forward to persuade Lin Chujiu .
It’s not like Housekeeper Cao doesn’t believe in Lin Chujiu, it’s more like he’s afraid for her to get in trouble . Because if something embarrassing happens to Lin Chujiu, their Wangye can still accept her . But, the royal family will definitely not .
Xiao Tianyao didn’t speak, but he looked at Lin Chujiu . He knew the reason why she is doing this . She wanted to keep her promise, she wanted to prove that she is useful .
Lin Chujiu knows that it’s very dangerous outside, so what can she do?
Lin Chujiu wry smile, then said: “I am Princess Xiao . Xiao Wangfu’s Imperial Mistress . Aside from me, who else can deal with this matter? Wangye can’t go out . Doctor Mo said that the treatment had reached the critical moment, so there shouldn’t be any slightest mistake . ”
“But, Wangfei you … …” are only a weak woman, so what’s the use?

HousekeeperCao bitterly looks at Xiao Tianyao . Hoping that he would say something to stop her . However, Xiao Tianyao said: “Can you solve the problem outside?”
“I wouldn’t know unless I’ll try . Wangye, cannot go out . Apart from me, who else in the family will come forward?” Lin Chujiu gradually calms down herself and started writing a manuscript inside her heart .
With all the crisis she dealt in this world, Lin Chujiu learned a thing or two . However, she doesn’t know if those things are quite enough, but she is willing to put everything on the line .
The treatment of the world to classy people are obviously different . The treatment between aristocracy and commoners are a world apart . So the behavior of these ordinary people to besieged Xiao Wangfu can be said to be very outrageous . The law exists to arrest the person who had sinned, so they don’t need to make a big trouble like this .
Xiao Tianyao looks at Lin Chujiu’s eyes deeply, then nodded his head and said: “Well, you can go . Benwang will believe you this once . ”
Obviously, Lin Chujiu is helping him to get out from this danger, but he is still a strong headed as ever . However, Lin Chujiu really need this opportunity, so that her position in Xiao Wangfu remain .
Lin Chujiu shook her head and no longer think . She turned around and let Housekeeper Cao help her to prepare Xiao Tianyao’s clothes .
On the battlefield, the armor is indispensable . However, for a woman, her gallant life is her best armor!

Divine Doctor Mo and Mo Yuer doesn’t know what’s happening to the outside . So, when they saw Lin Chujiu coming out, the two of them got puzzled . However, they don’t want to ask her directly, so they said instead: “Wangfei, you’re going out from Jing Tian Courtyard? Aren’t you going to massage Wangye’s legs? Are you going back?”
Their series of questions made Lin Chujiu’s mood turn bad . So, she replied with full of dissatisfaction: “Doctor Mo, I am not a prisoner and Jing Tian Courtyard is not my cage . So, me, going out is not your business . Oh, about Wangye? Rest assured, because this princess will be back on time . ”
After Lin Chujiu finished, she just walk away and didn’t even look back . At that moment, the atmosphere around her looks very powerful, so Divine Doctor Mo got even startled: Is she the same woman I met before?
Mo Yuer also couldn’t help but look at Lin Chujiu in a daze when she saw her walking straight followed by eight guardsmen . She doesn’t look all that mighty, but the atmosphere around her won’t definitely be copied by ordinary women .
Is this how a young noble lady from the capital suppose to act? Or an Imperial Princess?
Mo Yuer looked in trance …
