Guide to tame my villainous husbands - Chapter 1304

Chapter 1304: Dethroned princess Chapter 1304: Dethroned princess “Impossible!” Fu Shi roared.

Her voice echoed in the imperial court as she looked at her mother, who was sitting on the throne and looking down at her.

“You cannot take my title away; I am your daughter.

Your eldest daughter, by law, I have the right to be your crown princess.

You cannot dethrone me.”  “Well, I just did,” stated Fu Zhao with a smile on her lips, which made Fu Shi clench her fists.  She did not know what got inside her mother but after returning from the fief, she actually arranged for an imperial court in the middle of the night and even announced that she was actually removing her position as the crown princess.  Though Fu Shi was scared when she found out that Mo Qiang was able to escape from the trap that she dug for her, Fu Shi never thought that her mother would actually punish her.

At most, she would be prohibited from leaving the palace.  But the removal of her title?

This never came into Fu Shi’s mind!  “Your majesty, how can the crown princess be removed from her position?” Fu Shi’s maternal grandmother, Xu Maisui, stepped forward and looked at Fu Zhao with a wary look in her eyes.

“No matter what her Highness has done, her punishment shouldn’t be this grave.

At least give her a chance to perform better, Your Majesty.”  “Do you think that I haven’t done so?” Fu Zhao chuckled while tapping her fingernails on the armrest of her throne.

“I have done that.

Many times but it has only emboldened her.

I have nothing against having ambitions; I had them too.

That’s how I was able to get to where I am, but having ambitions and moving towards them with a bold approach is one thing but acting like a rat to get a nibble is different.”  Fu Shi’s face turned red when she heard her mother call her ‘rat’.

She turned to look at her maternal grandmother, who was looking just as offended.  “Your Majesty, at least tell us what her Highness has done for you to make such a move?” Wei Yunrou asked with a fox-like smile.

She lowered her head and stated, “I am afraid if you shake the position of her highness like this, there will be all kinds of rumours flying around by the morning.”  Fu Zhao glanced at Wei Yunrou with a smile on her lips.  ‘This sly fox,’ thought Fu Zhao as she stared at the woman.

Now that she had said those words, Fu Zhao was certain that if she did not explain her actions, there would certainly be all kinds of rumours flying around in the morning.  However, that worked just fine for her.  Fu Zhao’s smile widened, which made Wei Yunrou’s heart skip a beat.

She had a feeling that she just picked up a rock and smashed it on her foot, and her sense of foreboding came true when Fu Zhao turned to look at the court and then said to them,  “I was not going to disclose this matter in public after all; it is a shameful thing to bring up in front of you all.

But since General Wei thinks that I am being biased and ignorant, I might as well bring the evidence in front of the court.”  She glanced at Fu Shi, whose heart was already thumping wildly in her chest and when her mother looked at her, Fu Shi felt even more terrified.

That gaze was as if her mother could see right through her.  “Present the evidence,” announced Fu Zhao, ignoring Fu Shi as she pulled her gaze away from her eldest daughter.

She had indeed given this woman a lot of chances to get better but who knows what kind of wind Wei Yunrou was blowing in her ears?

Fu Shi couldn’t see her care.  All she saw was the fact that her mother was suppressing her.

Why was she doing this?

Wasn’t it because Fu Shi’s elbows were turning outwards?

She didn’t care about their family but she was quick to ask for money from her father to support Wei Yunrou and her pipe dreams.

But when the imperial family was in danger of turning into an empty shell, Fu Zhao didn’t see her working this hard.  Soon, the evidence that Fu Zhao had collected was presented in front of the entire court.  The said evidence was actually the memories of the mer who died after not being able to withstand the Zerg poison.

The entire court could see everything that happened between Fu Shi, her consort, and the mer who died.

From their plan of poisoning Mo Qiang to them using a special key to stuff the mer in Mo Qiang’s room.  “Your majesty this -”  “It is my ultimate skill,” Fu Zhao stated in a humble voice.

“Many of you did not fight with me in the war; thus, you have no idea that I have a skill that allows me to extract the memories of a corpse.”  She glanced at Fu Shi, who had gone completely pale along with Wei Yunrou.

Fu Shi really did not know that her mother had such a skill.

So her mother had been guarding against her from the start?

When did she realise?

When did her mother trace her ambitions down?

“The next time you do such a thing, make sure that you do not leave an intact corpse behind,” Fu Zhao stated; she did not care what Fu Shi was thinking about and she wasn’t bothered by it either.

She slowly rose from the throne and got to her feet.

“I have already said this before and I will be saying it again.

Miss Mo is the only one who can change the fate of our dimension and I will take no attack on her safety or life lightly.”  “Even if you are my daughter.”  She added without looking at Fu Shi, who had slumped on the floor with a shocked and disbelieving look on her face.

Seeing her expression, Fu Zhao shook her head.

She was really disappointed with this daughter of hers.  With that little courage, what was Fu Shi even trying to do?

Even if she somehow managed to climb up to this throne, Fu Zhao knew that her daughter would only lead this empire to doom.
