"This..." Princess Zixia's face burned, and she truly blamed Thunderclap True Person in her heart. There was no need to say anything about Princess Qingqing being injured—it had certainly been Xiao Hua's instruction. Yet Princess Zixia also understood that Xiao Hua would never have Thunderclap True Person do something so sordid. If Yu Xiajing's words were true, then it could only have been Thunderclap True Person's own doing, unrelated to Xiao Hua. But the problem was that Thunderclap True Person was the Sect Master Second Elder of the Creation Sect. He represented the Creation Sect, and he represented Xiao Hua.
What was Thunderclap True Person thinking? Princess Zixia secretly complained. How could he be bewitched by Qingqing's beauty at such a critical moment and do something so muddleheaded?
Unfortunately, how could Princess Zixia possibly know that Thunderclap True Person could not even be considered a complete person? She knew even less of the distinction between men and women!
"Qingqing is His Majesty's descendant, with a status equal to yours!" Empress Dongmian continued to rebuke her. "You now have a marriage agreement with the Grand Master of the Creation Sect, yet you allowed Qingqing to suffer the Sect Master Second Elder of the Creation Sect's molestation. Even if Yu Xiajing did not speak falsely, once others heard of this matter, they would naturally lay it at your door! Zixia, you must restore Qingqing's innocence. Otherwise, I cannot account for this to His Majesty, nor can I account for it to all the women of the world!"
With a thump, Princess Zixia's heart sank! Empress Dongmian's meaning was clear. To restore Princess Qingqing's innocence, how could it be restored? There were no more than two ways. The first was for Thunderclap True Person to commit suicide before all under heaven to atone
